peace.

on the city head.

"Back when the old man stepped on the plate, he was called a god-sighted man. He only needs to look at those fat sheep to know how much money he has brought..."

The old pawn was bragging to his colleagues.

Except for a few old soldiers, the others listened with gusto.

There was the sound of horseshoes, and someone shouted, "Someone is coming."

Everyone stood up quickly.

A group of people came from afar.

When they saw the big flag, everyone couldn't help cheering.

"It's the Duke!"

The city is seething.

"The Duke is here."

The common people rushed to the street to welcome Yang Xuan.

Shen Qi and the others made their way through the crowd, and before they reached the city gate, they heard louder cheers from outside.

"Kingdom!"

The people raised their hands high and waved vigorously.

Every face is full of joy and reverence.

Yang Xuan was blocked outside the city gate.

"Duke be careful!"

Someone shouted, and then several guards stepped forward and stood in front of Yang Xuan.

"Step aside!"

Yang Xuan pushed away the guards and walked into the crowd.

"Kingdom!"

An old man squeezed hard.

"Chen Laoxin!"

Yang Xuan laughed.

In an instant, the old man's face became more red, as if he was drunk, "Yes, it's a villain!"

"Kingdom!"

One by one the people raised their hands.

Yang Xuan reached out his hand and touched them one by one.

"How is the Duke?"

someone shouted.

Yang Xuan smiled and said, "Good! I ate well and slept well in Tao County."

"Duke, come to my house to eat Hoto!" A woman shouted.

Yang Xuan glanced at her, "Aunt Ma, go back!"

The woman said happily: "The Duke keeps his word!"

"Forget it!"

Yang Xuan smiled and nodded.

An old man asked: "How long can the Duke stay here?"

Why is this like asking a relative?
Han Ji wanted to laugh a little, but when he looked at the old thief and the others, they seemed to be taking it for granted, and couldn't help but move in his heart.

Yang Xuan said: "I have to go back after a few days."

He was right there in the crowd, causing great difficulty for the guards.

Yang Xuan walked slowly among the crowd, wherever he went, the crowd automatically avoided a path.

Someone shouted: "Duke, what should we do about this sneak attack by the Beiliao people?"

"Damn it!"

Yang Xuan cursed vulgarly: "That's a group of field mice sneaking out of the mountains, trying to take advantage. But where is this? It's Taiping!"

The faces of the people were all red, and they looked proud.

Han Ji said softly, "Why are they excited?"

He glanced at the old thief, and so did the old thief.

Why is this?

Han Ji, who joined the small group relatively late, didn't understand.

Yang Xuan raised his hand, "This is Taiping!"

He raised his hands one by one, "This is Taiping!"

Han Ji's heart skipped a beat.

Opportunity!
If the old man can take advantage of the opportunity to shout out and give some guidance, no one can shake the Duke's prestige here!

He saw an old man on the opposite side open his mouth, looking at the black hole in his mouth with most of his teeth missing.

The old man raised his arms and shouted:

"Whose peace is this?"

Isn't that exactly what the old man wanted to ask?

Want to bootstrap?
He looked slowly, and saw the people opening their mouths, their expressions pious...

Then shout.

"This is the peace of the Duke!"

Boom!

These words were like a thunderbolt, and Han Ji was shocked in his heart.

He looked carefully, everyone's face was full of pride, and it was taken for granted.

This is the peace of the Duke!
The old thief said reservedly: "Before your lord, Taiping fell many times, and even horse thieves were able to break through Taiping City. After your lord came, he took Taiping as the foundation and continued to expand. The horse thieves and the three major minions he fought did not dare to look south. "

Apart from Cao Ying and Yiniang, the old thief is the oldest group of followers.

"Taiping used to be a place of exile. The city was in chaos and the poor... I bet that Taiping was the poorest in the Tang Dynasty. But since the Lord came, Taiping has gradually changed."

The old thief pointed to the shops on both sides, "Look. Today's Taiping is called Beijiang Pearl. It is an important place for my business and workshops in Northern Xinjiang. As long as you have strength and are willing to do things, you can support yourself."

He pointed at those common people, "Do you know? When Lang Jun was in charge of Northern Xinjiang, Chang'an suppressed it. Some people in Taiping said, let Lang Jun stand on his own!"

Boom!

Han Ji felt a second explosion of thunder above his head.

"Self-reliance?"

Self-reliance is treason!
This is what Han Ji has been striving for all along.

Unexpectedly, before him, someone in Taiping shouted this slogan.

"who is it?"

This person should be rebellious, right?
No, it should be a hero even more reckless than the old man!

Han Ji thought so.

"A woman!"

Han Ji: "..."

The old thief said: "Afterwards, followers were like a cloud. Some even said that we should form an army, expand the Taiping Army, go to Tao County to protect the Lord, and kill whoever comes."

This is……

"This is sharing honor and disgrace with Mr. Lang!" Han Ji looked at the common people with a softer look in his eyes.

——They are all heroes with the same aspirations as the old man!
"That's right." The old thief looked at him, "The old man said this to tell you. This is the foundation of the gentleman, and it is also his home!"

When Yang Xuan returned home, he looked extremely relaxed.

God Eye Zhang was brought.

"Meet the Duke!"

Yang Xuan helped him up, "Good job this time."

His divine eyes were full of red light, "It's good for Guo Gongjiao."

Could it be that I taught you how to step on a plate?

Yang Xuan smiled, "Shen Qi sent someone to ask me how to reward you. As I said, according to the rules, do what you want."

"Yes!"

Zhang saluted with divine eyes.

Yang Xuan said: "The public is the public. Taiping is preserved because of you, how can I ignore it? Second child."

Wang Laoer handed over a horizontal knife.

"This is my saber back then, and now I will give it to you as a reward."

Shenyan Zhang took the horizontal knife, knelt down and said, "Thank you, Duke."

Seeing his excited cheeks trembling, Yang Xuan said: "If you have such abilities, you should lead Taiping scouts."

This is promotion.

God Eye Zhang kowtowed, "The villain must be optimistic about peace for the Duke!"

Yang Xuan then went to the county office.

"This time, you wait to slack off!"

Yang Xuan's words made Shen Qi and the others tremble, and they hurriedly apologized.

"After I heard the warning from the top of the city, the reinforcements in the city rushed to them and stopped the enemy. This is a reward!"

Laziness is a sentry, and Yang Xuan is very satisfied with the reaction of the defenders.

"Yes."

Shen Qi felt relieved.

Later, Yang Xuan rested, and Shen Qi and others resigned.

When he got outside, Qian Neng said in a low voice: "I heard that Lin'an is quite unbearable this time, so slack that the enemy army broke into the city. If it wasn't for the Duke's timely assistance, Lin'an might not be able to keep it."

"What do you want to say?" Shen Qi looked at him.

Qian Neng said: "The Ming Mansion was originally the county magistrate of Lin'an County. Now that it is in Taiping, it is also valued and tempered by the Duke. After this time, the Ming Mansion will have..."

He pointed to the direction of Lin'an.

Lu Qiang made a mistake, it's time to go!

Shen Qi shook his head, "You underestimated Lu Qiang, and even more so, the Duke."

Qian Neng was stunned, "What Mingfu said..."

"Lu Shijun is an old man in Chenzhou. He assisted Liu Sima in the past, and later assisted the Duke of the state. He can be called an old man among the old people.

He may not be aggressive enough, but he is more than conservative.

After this time, he will definitely pay more attention to patrolling. If the enemy army wants to attack again, it is just a dream.

At this moment, how could the Duke move him? "

"The Duke has just returned from Chang'an, so don't you need to stand up?"

"You don't understand." Shen Qi shook his head, "The Duke is a man of affection!"

……

Han Ji and Yang Xuan are drinking tea.

"Chang'an is the land of tigers and wolves. Mr. Lang was able to escape from there, and he took away the position of Jiedu envoy of Northern Xinjiang and the title of Duke of Qin, and his momentum was greatly boosted. The old man thought that he would become a powerful man."

Although the former Yang Xuan was said to be the lord of the northern border, but he only had the name of a deputy envoy of Jiedu, his name was not right, and his words were not right.

"Not urgent."

Yang Xuan narrowed his eyes, "When I was the deputy envoy of Jiedu in Northern Xinjiang, the local tycoons and merchants were quite dissatisfied with me. Back then they felt that I could not stand firm, so they were complacent and confident. Now, I am afraid they are all afraid Bar?"

Han Ji nodded, "It is said that someone ran away with his family property."

Am I that scary?

Yang Xuan was stunned.

He Lianyan said: "Mr. Lang didn't know. The family heard that Mr. Lang returned from Chang'an triumphantly. They were worried that they would be erected, so they ran away."

As for?
Also, what triumph?
Yang Xuan felt that his subordinates had a good heart, but he still wanted to remind him, "Chang'an is an opponent, but not an enemy!"

"Isn't it the same?" Wang Laoer asked, having stopped eating jerky.

"Different!"

Yang Xuan shook his head, "To deal with opponents, there must be a bottom line. To deal with enemies, we will do everything we can."

He looked a little tired, Han Ji stood up, "Your Majesty, rest early, I'll take my leave."

Yang Xuan nodded, "Shen Qi did a good job this time, but since I beat Lin'an, naturally I can't let him go, otherwise..."

Han Ji smiled, "The old man knows, so I'll find him for a drink later."

Han Ji then went to the lobby.

Shen Qi is lecturing.

"...the so-called being prepared for danger in times of peace..."

Han Ji waited for him to finish his lecture before going in.

"Go down to drink?"

Shen Qi glanced at him, "Okay."

Later, the two drank at Shen's house.

"In Taiping, if you want to eat, just ask someone to order it, and it will be delivered within half an hour."

Shen Qi raised his glass, "This is the foundation laid by the Duke when he was here. When outsiders first came here, they thought this place was a fairyland."

"A place of pleasure!" Han Ji raised his glass, "However, it is also the foundation."

"Yes." Shen Qi raised his head and drank a glass of wine, playing with the empty glass, "Does Mr. Han have something to say?"

This man is sharp!

No wonder he is valued by the lord.

Han Ji said, "You did a good job this time."

There was a gleam in Shen Qi's eyes, "It's the Duke of the state, and it's Lu Shijun who leads well."

smart people!
Yang Xuan scolded the officials and generals in Lin'an, naturally he couldn't miss Taiping, otherwise he would be digging a hole for Shen Qi and others... Looking back, Lin'an had plenty of small shoes for him to wear.

The credit cannot overwhelm the Shangguan, and the limelight cannot surpass the Shangguan!
This is the unspoken rule for thousands of years.

Yang Xuan also didn't have the ability to break it.

Once this unspoken rule is broken, the whole society will be in chaos.

"Class!"

Yang Xuan was walking in the backyard.

Class is something that can be seen and touched.Some people hate it, some people envy it, some people disdain it.

But for thousands of years, the Central Plains has relied on this framework to move forward.

"Lang Jun, Mr. Han is here."

When Han Ji came in, his face was reddish, which showed that he had drunk a lot of wine.

"how?"

Yang Xuan asked casually.

Han Ji said: "Shen Qi is a smart man. The old man just said one sentence and he understood it. He said that he only did one thing in Taiping, to look after Taiping for my lord."

This is a veiled show of loyalty.

Yang Xuan said: "In this way, this trip can be considered complete."

Han Ji asked: "Do you want to attack Tanzhou, or Neizhou?"

Yang Xuan ordered Zhen Siwen and Cao Ying to deploy scouts to investigate the enemy's situation, which was to prepare for the attack.

"Look!"

"Look?"

"Whoever is pleasing to the eye, hit whoever!"

……

The weather is getting cooler and cooler, and when winter enters, all kinds of activities in the whole north will stop.

Farmer Wodong, shepherd Wodong... Except for merchants and craftsmen, production activities have almost stagnated.

After a year of accumulation, ordinary people have some surplus money in their families, and they can buy some things before nesting.

This is the golden season for merchants.

Caravans continued to flow from the north to the northern border, with carts full of goods, or with large herds of cattle and sheep, and even horses.

A caravan looks a little different among them.

Among the more than forty large carts, most of them are empty, and half of them are packed with wooden boxes, which don't look heavy.

But there were more than three hundred people accompanying him.

These three hundred or so people looked quite rough, with strong bodies, and their eyes were full of wildness when they turned their eyes.

In front of him was a tall man, looking in his twenties, with a slightly dark complexion, and a pair of long and narrow eyes full of curiosity.

"Deji, this is Northern Xinjiang?"

The old man beside him had a ruddy complexion, and said with a smile, "Axibao, this is Beijiang. Look at the cultivated land, it's more tidy than that in Beiliao."

The young man's name is A Xibao, and his gaze gradually became more and more serious. "I heard that the former northern border was firmly suppressed by Beiliao. It has only changed since Yang Xuan took charge of northern border. Is this person said to be about the same age as me?"

Deji nodded, "Yes! They are all young. But Ah Xibao, you are the son of Khan, and your status is as respected as he is."

"It doesn't depend on status." A Xibao frowned, "What I value more is this person's martial arts."

"Datang has opened up borders in recent years, he is the only one!" Deji said.

"He's an interesting person." Axibao smiled heartily, "Can such people be called heroes?"

Deji nodded, "Naturally he is a hero."

"I like making friends with heroes the most. Since I'm here, I should go and ask for them." Ah Xibao said.

"That's the lord of the northern border, I'm afraid he won't want to see us." Deji looked at the farmers in the distance leisurely.

"Beiliao has been oppressing us for a long time. After He Lianchun succeeded to the throne, it intensified. This time I traveled all over the lush land of Beiliao. I saw pleasure and power. But these powers are only fake. Under the long swords of our warriors, you will only tremble."

Axibao said, "I was thinking, Northern Xinjiang is also the enemy of Beiliao. What if we can become allies and deal with the Beiliao people together?"

Deji thought for a while, "Beiliao is powerful, without help, it would be very difficult for us to completely defeat them."

"No, I'm confident!"

Ah Xibao squinted his eyes and said confidently: "Our warriors can fight ten against one. In the past two years, we have won more than we lost, and the Northern Liao army fled in embarrassment. If we don't form an alliance, our final victory will be later. Only That's all."

"Axibao, Khan's four sons, do you know why the old man followed you?" Deji asked.

Ah Xibao looked at him with contemptuous eyes, "Because only I can lead the Shegu tribe to rule the world!"

Deji's eyes were filled with admiration, "Yes!"

Da da da!
The sound of hoofs came.

"There are cavalry!"

The attendants drew out their long swords, but they were not afraid, but excited.

A group of cavalry galloped towards Wu Ya, and when they saw them drawing their swords, they divided into two groups and surrounded them.

"It's Yang Ziqi!" Deji exclaimed, "It's Yang Xuan!"

Yiqi was swarmed over.

Ah Xibao shouted: "But Yang Guogong?"

Some of the cavalry surrounding them said, "Exactly."

Ah Xibao got off his horse and cupped his hands, "I would like to become brothers with different surnames with Yang Guogong!"
