April 16, 2002. This morning, I had just arrived at the hall to deal with a few small matters when I heard a soldier come in and say,"Milord, the imperial court's envoy has arrived.”"Hurry up and invite him in!" I told the guard. "There's no need. Wuyue Prefecture Overseer He Qi accepts the edict!”The messenger walked in and said.
"I, He Qi, accept the decree!" I quickly knelt down and said. "In accordance with the heavens, the emperor issued an edict saying: He Qi, the governor of Wuyue Prefecture, did not do his job well and lost the annual tribute. This is because it should be dealt with strictly! Considering your small contribution, I'm giving you a chance to atone for your sins. At the end of this year, I will make up for last year's tribute and this year's tribute. I order you to personally escort them to the capital. I heard you mention the disaster of the water bandits. You are a dignified military adviser general, so I will let you solve it yourself. I hereby give you the power to act arbitrarily. Give! Lord He, why haven't you received the edict to thank me?" The envoy lowered his head and said to me. "I thank the emperor for his kindness! Hooray! Hooray! Long live!" I was stunned at first, but then I came to my senses. I couldn't control the joy on my face as I spoke loudly.
I got up and took the imperial edict. I held the envoy's hand and asked,"Eunuch usually walks in front of that lord?”"I have always followed Marquis Zhang. This time, Lord He lost his tribute. If Marquis Zhang didn't help you deal with it, I'm afraid Lord He would have lost his head.”The eunuch said to me.
"This lowly official knows this very well. Eunuch, please follow this lowly official to the inner hall.”I said as I held the eunuch's hand. "Alright, Marquis Zhang has long said that Lord He knows how to conduct himself.”The father-in-law said to me. After entering the inner hall, I asked someone to serve tea. He said to the eunuch,"Please take a seat, eunuch. I'll be right there."”After saying that, he went to Kitten's room and said to Kitten,"Cat, bring the Three-Colored Warrior Figurine and the Bronze Dragon Head Divine Beast to my room. I will take something else from my room.”
I returned to my room and took out the gold I had won from the tournament. By the time Xiao Mao took the two items, I had already taken out two thousand five hundred gold taels. I returned to the inner hall and said to the eunuch,"This lowly official has two thousand taels of gold and two small toys as a token of appreciation for Marquis Zhang.”
After handing the item to the eunuch, I took out another 500 gold taels and said to him,"Eunuch Gong, you've worked hard on your journey. Here's five hundred taels for your tea. Eunuch, please go back and tell Marquis Zhang that I will personally come to the capital at the end of this year to thank him. Also, please tell him that when the governor of Yangzhou, Liu Yao, handed over Moling City to me. He cheated all the silver from the treasury." The father-in-law didn't refuse and kept the things. He said to me,"Lord He, don't worry. I'll definitely pass on these two words for you. 5ccc.net I'll take my leave first!”
After the father-in-law left, I returned to Kitten's room and said,"Cat's chance is here. Watch my next performance.”"Then you should be careful." Kitten said to me.
4th month, 30th day, I invited Taishi Ci to the barracks. When the two of us were fighting on the stage, I said to the six guards,"Today, I'm here to see the results of your training, as well as the first martial arts competition in our army. Gather the entire army." After hearing what I said, Fan Da shouted at the soldiers in the camp,""Gather!" The sound of footsteps could be heard, and in a short while, more than 20,000 soldiers had gathered.
"Advisor Jun, your soldiers are the most well-trained I have ever seen.”Taishi Ci said to me. "You flatter me. You will be the captain of these soldiers in the future. You have to perform well.”I told Taishi Ci. "Understood!" Taishi Ci said to me. I said to all the soldiers below,"Today, I will be watching your performance. Anyone who raised a challenge and defeated the challenger would be promoted to the challenger's position. After all of you have finished your challenges, I will give all of you who have won a banquet tonight.”
As soon as I finished speaking, I saw that none of the soldiers below were happy. He was very happy. This was the effect he wanted. "Now, the challenge begins!" I said loudly to everyone. Immediately, the field began to fight one by one, from morning until the end of the afternoon. There were a total of 42 squad leaders and 17 captains. I ordered the six guards to record them down one by one and hold a banquet for them that night.
After leaving the camp, Taishi Ci stepped forward and respectfully said to me,"The soldiers under the military counselor are all highly skilled in martial arts. In my opinion, at least half of them can be generals. Moreover, they were all full of energy and murderous intent. What kind of training did they go through?”"When I'm free, I'll get the six outstanding guards to teach you.”I laughed loudly at Taishi Ci.
"Thank you, Military Advisor. Why don't you let me train with the Six Heroes of Hu and Wei from tomorrow onwards?”Taishi Ci said to me. "That's good. You can ask them yourself.”I nodded to Taishi Ci.
When I returned to the prefect's mansion, I saw Xun Yu standing in the hall waiting for me. I went up and said,"Wen Ruo, why are you back?" "A few days ago, I heard that the Imperial Court had sent someone over, so I came back to ask about your situation.”
"Take it and take a look yourself." I gave the imperial edict to Xun Yu. Xun Yu said to me after reading it,"Is this a punishment from the imperial court?" Or a reward? I'm afraid you can do whatever you want in Wuyue. 5ccc.net " Originally, I wanted to delay the time for the annual tribute, but I didn't expect to receive an unexpected gift. Xun Yu, how's the situation with the taxes collected in April?”I nodded and smiled at Xun Yu.
"It's basically the same as in previous years, although the tax rate is low. However, firstly, the population had increased by three levels. Second, many shops have opened up, and they have rented many shops along the street from us."Thirdly, there are still many commoners who have come to open up wasteland and ask us if we have rented or bought many houses.”Xun Yu said to me. "It's not important now. The main thing is to look at our autumn harvest. The taxes in July and October were the most important. Wen Ruo, I'll leave the internal affairs to you. I have a small suggestion. I think you can give Zhang Zhao more room to play in internal affairs.”I thought about it and said to Xun Yu.
"I can feel that too. The business he is in charge of seems to have more than doubled for our territory.”Xun Yu nodded and said.
"Hehe, you can transfer him to the agriculture department that you're in charge of in the future. This was his specialty. Speaking of business, Guo Tu secretly told me that Jian 'an suddenly had many more shops. I, however, think that we should have shops all over the place. There are only two reasons for this. First, the tax rate here is low, and the population is booming. Second, someone has started to infiltrate my various regions. Wen Ruo, which one do you think it is?" I said to Xun Yu.
"Brother Qi, I don't think you need my answer.”Xun Yu snorted and said to me after a while.
"Let me tell you something else. I went to Moling City in disguise some time ago. The merchants in the city hoarded a large amount of resources and tried to assassinate me when I came forward to resolve the matter. Lu Dai and I captured the assassin and brought him to the prefect's manor. We didn't expect that someone would sneak into the manor and kill the assassin in front of Lu Dai, the six guards, and me. He even managed to confuse the few of us without being noticed. When I returned to Jian An this time, you all thought that I was too sad and suddenly fainted. However, I don't think so. At that time, I felt like my limbs were being controlled by someone and they didn't let me wake up. You know what happened after that, but I still woke up. The reason why I didn't say anything at that time was because of the mixed characters and my troops were too weak. There are only the two of us now. You'll forget it immediately after hearing it. The thing I'm most afraid of seeing is that someone failed to harm me and came to harm you.”I frowned and said to Xun Yu.
"If this matter is as you say, it will be too terrifying. Not only did they have the ability to infiltrate businesses all over the country, but they also had terrifying experts who could kill people without them noticing. Who could have such strength?”Xun Yu asked in surprise.
"No matter who it is, they don't have good intentions towards us. I will use a month to reorganize my army. After that, you will be transferred to various places. You will secretly go to various places to inform the local prefects and have them guard the city carefully. Most importantly, help me look after the merchants in the city. Also, go and ask Lu Dai about the situation of the merchants from last time.”I said to Xun Yu with a smile on my face.
"Brother Qi, I'll go now.”Xun Yu nodded and said. "That's not necessary. It's not easy for us brothers to meet. Tonight, come and have a taste of my cooking. Little sister misses you too. I still have a special little thing to ask you.”I said to Xun Yu. "What is it?" Xun Yu asked me with interest. "We'll talk while we eat. You can rest in the guest room for a while.”I said to Xun Yu.
After Xun Yu leaves, I will immediately send someone to find General Dian Wei. Then, I went to the kitchen to cook. By the time I finished, it was already dark. I called Xiao Mao and Xun Yu to the dining room to eat. Xun Yu wanted to ask me a few questions during the meal, but I stopped him with the words " Don't talk while eating " and " Don't sleep ". After everyone is done eating, I'll let Kitten go back to her room first. I want to have a good chat with Xun Yu.
After the cat left, I asked Xun Yu,""During that time, when I was unconscious, I felt that someone had fed me water. If it wasn't for those few mouthfuls of water, I probably wouldn't have been able to hold on. Do you know who it is?" "There's such a thing? I don't know. Could it be your sister or a servant?”Xun Yu lowered his head and thought for a moment before asking me.
"No, I know my sister's temper the best. If she had done it, she would definitely tell me about it when I wake up. She only told me that she bit me once. Moreover, that person must have fed the water with her lips. It can't be my sister.”I said to Xun Yu with a strange smile on my face.
"Lips? Do you mean to kiss your lips and feed you water?”Xun Yu asked in surprise. "Yes, I can't be wrong. Although it was my sister who bit me and woke me up, if it wasn't for that mouthful of water. He would definitely die if he did not eat or drink for more than ten days. I hope you can help me find out about this without disturbing anyone.”I said to Xun Yu in embarrassment. "This... Hehe, I'm too embarrassed to investigate this matter with Brother Qi.”Xun Yu said to me with an awkward expression.
"Wen Ruo, don't tell me you want me to investigate this myself. If someone did it, I would never be able to find out. I just want you to help me take care of it.”I said to Xun Yu. "Understood!" Xun Yu said with a smile. "Then go back and have a good rest. Don't leave for the next two days. Accompany me to see our own army.”After I finished speaking to Xun Yu, I left by myself. "Yes, sir!" A reply.
