No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 563 Arriving in Huaizhou for the First Time

After Luo Junyao came to Zhaoyun City, apart from playing around with Ruan Yueli every day, the girl who was most interested in being imprisoned in the Xuanwei Mission's Mansion was probably the one he was most interested in.

Of course, Luo Jinyan was not really cruel enough to put the little girl in a dungeon, but had someone lock her in an empty yard in the backyard of the Xuanwei Mission's Mansion, and the people brought by Luo Jinyan were specially guarded.

The little girl can only take it with her in her room, not to mention leaving the hospital, she can't even go to the small courtyard.

Right now, the imperial court has no plans to break faces with the Qiuci tribe, not to mention that the young chief of the Qiuci tribe supported Zeng Wei when Zeng Wei was isolated and helpless. This friendship cannot be ignored.

Therefore, apart from not allowing the girl to go out, the Xuanwei Mansion did not treat her badly in other respects.

Curious, Luo Junyao went over to have a look, and heard the girl babbling non-stop in the room alone, and she didn't need to understand Nanjiang dialect to know that she was swearing.

After Ruan Yueli translated, Luo Junyao became even more curious.

This girl has ordinary time every day, and she spends it scolding Luo Junyao.

Luo Jinyan met her shining eyes, raised his hand and patted her on the head helplessly, and walked past her inside.

In the study of Xuanwei Mission Mansion, Xie Yan was giving instructions to Duiying and Xiying, and when they saw the two coming in, he waved his hand to signal his subordinates to leave.

"Jinyan is back? Sit down and talk."

Luo Jinyan cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, please go to the southern border in person."

Xie Yan shook his head, glanced at Luo Jun with a smile and said, "I was going to Huaizhou to see you, but it was nothing."

Luo Jun walked up to Xie Yan with a smile and sat down, looked at Luo Jin and said, "Brother, how are the Hongshan and Furuhe tribes doing? Is Khenpo doing something wrong this time?"

Luo Jinyan said: "General Huaizhou and I led the troops there. The gap between the Hongshan Department and the Guhe Department just caught us off guard. Now Khenbula is fleeing south with some of his tribe, probably because he wants to join Setu General Huaizhou led troops to chase after them, joined General Annan and then jointly wiped them out."

Xie Yan was thoughtful, and said: "The three major tribes created chaos at the same time, there must be someone behind the scenes."

Luo Jinyan nodded and said, "I heard that you brought back the second elder of Qiu Cibu?"

Luo Junyao was a little disappointed, and said: "The second elder of the Qiu Ci Department is a resentful idiot, and the person who contacted him is Setu, and he doesn't know much about it."

Not everyone will be rational and must be [-]% sure to do something. Some people think that [-]% or even [-]% can be done.

Luo Jinyan said: "It's okay, I have a lot of news here. Setu is indeed the illegitimate son of the former head of the Hongshan tribe, but he didn't grow up in southern Xinjiang."

Luo Junyao couldn't help but blinked when he heard the words, "Brother, don't you mean to say that he grew up in the Qi clan?"

Luo Jinyan smiled and said: "That's not true, but before he appeared in the Hongshan Department, he was indeed outside the Great Wall. He should have been under King Qi's command, but Bai Jingrong found him after King Qi died. Although Setu ran away, we went to capture the envoy of the Qi tribe who came with him, and we can confirm that it was indeed Bai Jingrong who instructed Setu to start the war in southern Xinjiang."

Xie Yan frowned and said, "So, this Setu didn't expect to become the head of the Hongshan tribe at all?"

Luo Jinyan sighed, "He killed all the children and close blood relatives of the old patriarch of the Hongshan tribe. I'm afraid he didn't intend to become the patriarch of the Hongshan tribe in the first place."

"Why did the Khenpo gang up with them?" Xie Yan asked.

Luo Jinyan said: "Khenbula really wants to take this opportunity to unify southern Xinjiang. Setu and Kanbula have made an agreement that as long as there is chaos in southern Xinjiang, Setu will give all the wealth of all the soldiers and horses under his command and the Hongshan tribe to Kanbula .Coupled with the fact that Qiu Cibu’s vitality has just been seriously injured, if the imperial court has no time to go south, Kampula can indeed take the opportunity to unify southern Xinjiang.”

Luo Jun said: "How many soldiers and horses does Setu have? He killed the head of the Hongshan tribe and sold the Hongshan tribe. Will the people of the Hongshan tribe listen to him?"

Luo Jinyan said: "He now has more than 2 soldiers and horses under his command. They are not from the Hongshan tribe, but recruited from hundreds of tribes in southern Xinjiang. Many small tribes have no desire to compete for power, just to make a living. Just give money."

It is the same way as Yisi Luan in southern Xinjiang before, and many of them were exiled after Yisi Luan was wiped out.

Xie Yan asked: "Is there any difficulty in pacifying southern Xinjiang?"

Luo Jinyan raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, there will be no trouble." If it was three years ago, it would have been quite difficult.It is still useful for the imperial court to recuperate and recuperate in the past few years.

"The soldiers and horses in the two prefectures of Huaining and Ning are enough to cope with it, and there is no need for the court to add additional soldiers, horses, food and grass." Although Luo Jinyan is now a civil servant, his job is a general after all.The official position of the governor is also in charge of the military, government and people's livelihood, so he is very strategic.

Since he first took office, he has been consciously preparing for the possibility of war in southern Xinjiang. Once there is chaos in southern Xinjiang, it will take a lot of time to arrive even if there is support from the imperial court, and he may have missed it. The best fighter.

After two or three years of rest, even without the support of the imperial court, not to mention the destruction, at least it will not be a problem to stabilize the situation.

Xie Yan nodded, "Then I have to be careful."

Luo Junyao's expression was not relaxed, he looked at Xie Yan and asked: "My lord's next step is to go to the northwest?"

Xie Yan looked indifferent, and said: "The Qi clan... has to be resolved, and now is a good time."

Luo Jinyan raised his eyebrows, thought for a while and smiled: "That's right, not long after King Qi's death, Bai Jingrong has not been able to completely solve the nobles of the Qi clan, and now his son is at odds, it is indeed a good time to solve the Qi clan in one fell swoop. Bai Jingrong this It is time to fan the flames in southern Xinjiang, and I am afraid that there will be a big move within the Qi people."

It should be impossible for the Qi people to invade the Central Plains. Now that the Qi people do not have the strength, it can only be that something major has happened within the Qi people.

Xie Yan just nodded slightly, but did not speak.

After finishing the business, Luo Junyao came out of the study and followed behind Luo Jinyan.

Luo Jinyan looked at her helplessly, "Why don't you follow the prince, why follow me?"

Luo Junyao smiled and said: "I haven't seen my eldest brother for several years, and my eldest brother doesn't seem to miss me at all?" They will leave Nanjiang soon, Xie Yan is so busy these days, she won't cause trouble.

Luo Jinyan raised his hand and knocked on her forehead, and said, "Finally, what's the matter?"

Luo Jun shook his arms and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I plan to visit Sister Arui when I pass by Huaizhou. Brother, how are you and Sister Arui?"

Luo Jinyan was startled, but did not speak for a while.

Luo Jun shook his eyes and looked at him with some disappointment, "Are you two still standing still? Brother, can you do it?"

Luo Jinyan patted her head angrily, and said, "Don't talk nonsense all day long, you're so old and you're doing everything right."

Luo Junyao couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "Do you think I'm the only one who is worried? Before leaving, my parents also let me see you, and Mrs. Su, they're getting old, and they miss Sister Arui very much. OK?"

Luo Jinyan sighed lightly, thought for a while and said, "It's not like standing still."

"Oh?" Luo Junyao suddenly cheered up, "Is there any progress? Is it a fake show? Am I really going to call Sister Arui sister-in-law?"

Luo Jinyan smiled and said, "She is your sister-in-law."

Luo Junyao complained in his heart, no wonder!
The two walked side by side in the yard, Luo Jinyan said: "I will have a good talk with A Rui again when I go back this time. You don't have to worry about us anymore. If you have this free time, you might as well think about it. It will take three or four years for you to marry the prince. Is it time to have a baby?"

Luo Jun shook his hands and said, "I'm still young, besides... in the current situation, how troublesome it would be to have a child? We're not ready yet."

Luo Jinyan said: "If you think about it this way, you will never be well prepared."

After all, Luo Jinyan was born and raised in the Dasheng Dynasty. Apart from avoiding the national mourning and filial piety period, he couldn't think of any other preparations for having a child.

Even if ordinary people need to make preparations, how can Xie Yan, as the regent, still have time to be completely idle?Maybe another troublesome event will come one day, when will we have to prepare for it?
Luo Junyao never imagined that his elder brother, who seemed the most open-minded and free-spirited, would join the ranks of giving birth.

"That can't be too early." Luo Jun said, "At least 24 years old, right?" At any rate, it's the right age to finish college and take two years of classes.

Although she has never lived a life at this age seriously in her two lifetimes.

Luo Jinyan heard what she said, so he didn't say much.

Just know what you have in mind.

He was only mentioning it as an elder brother, and he didn't have to force her to have a baby. Anyway, Xie Yan was willing to shield her from the pressure.

Luo Junyao suddenly rolled his eyes, "Brother, you said this suddenly, don't you mean to divert my attention on purpose?"

"What?" Luo Jinyan asked puzzled.

"That girl is locked up in the backyard."

Luo Jinyan said calmly: "That's the younger sister of the chief patriarch of the Qiu Ci Department, who is temporarily staying in the Xuanwei Mansion. When the matter of the Qiu Ci Department is resolved, Lord Zeng will naturally let her go. What does it have to do with me?"

Luo Junyao then nodded, "That's good, otherwise I will really sue Sister A Rui."

Luo Jinyan glanced at her and said, "Stop talking nonsense in front of A Rui."

Luo Jun shook his head and smiled, nodding repeatedly to express his understanding.

Xie Yan and Luo Jun came to southern Xinjiang, but not many people knew about it.

It was silent when it came, and it was silent when it left.

The matter in southern Xinjiang cannot be completely resolved overnight, and Luo Jinyan alone is enough.

Dasheng's real enemy has always been in the northwest.

After the group left Southern Xinjiang, they entered Huaizhou.

Huaizhou is in the southwest of Dasheng. It has been a barren land since ancient times. It is known as the saying that there are eight mountains, one water and one field.Huaizhou City, where the Huaining Governor's Mansion is located, is actually not much bigger than Zhaoyun City in southern Xinjiang.

Xie Yan and Luo Junyao traveled in micro-clothes all the way, and even the imperial court only knew roughly where the regent went to inspect, so the group did not attract too much attention when they arrived in Huaizhou City.

After entering the city, looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, as well as the vendors and merchants on the street, Duoying couldn't help but said: "Huaizhou doesn't seem to be as barren as the legend says."

Whether a place is good or not can be seen by the expressions on the faces of the people.

If the faces of the common people are like dead wood and insensitive, it means that no matter how well the appearance is decorated, it is useless.

If the people have a smile on their faces and are full of vigor, even if this place is not rich, there will always be hope.

Hearing this, a peddler on the side of the road couldn't help raising his head to look at the few people.

"Is it the first time for the nobles to come to Huaizhou?"

Luo Jun shook his head and smiled, "No, it's the first time for us to come to Huaizhou."

The peddler has never seen such a beautiful girl before, and when he saw Luo Junyao's smile, he felt a little dizzy before his eyes, and the expression on his face became more attentive, "No wonder the nobles don't know that we in Huaizhou have only recovered in the past few years Yes. If you had been here a few years earlier, this city would not have been so lively."

Luo Jun shook his head and said with a smile, "Oh? Why?"

The peddler said with a smile: "Of course it is because of Master Luo and Madam. Those two are the saviors God gave us in Huaizhou. Since Master Luo and Madam came to Huaizhou, our life is getting better every day."

Luo Junyao was in a good mood when he heard that, "So that's the case, then this Master Luo is really powerful."

"No, Lord Luo is the son of General Luo, and I heard that he was also a general in the past."

The peddler smiled and said, "I took a look at Mr. Luo from a distance, and he looked like a gentleman scholar, but I didn't expect that he was also a general who could win a battle! This is it!" The peddler gave Luo Jun a thumbs up.

It seems that the elder brother's reputation in Huaizhou is really good, and Luo Junyao is also very happy for his elder brother.

In a good mood, he chose some things at the stall, and then he dragged Xie Yan to continue walking forward.

Qu Tiange followed behind the two, and the two were also followed by overlapping shadows.

It is difficult for such a few people to walk on the street without being noticed.

However, even if ordinary people notice it, they will feel that these people are not easy to provoke, and they will not take the initiative to provoke them.

However, this Huaizhou City is obviously a little different.

Something suddenly fell from the sky and hit Qu Tiange.

But Qu Tiange is so skillful, such a thing without inner strength can't hit him.

With a wave of his hand, the thing was shot in a different direction and smashed to the side of the street.

Qu Tiange waved his hand without looking in the direction, and the thing happened to fall into the bowl of a customer who was eating noodles at a noodle stall on the side of the street.

The guest was eating the noodles in a good manner, but suddenly disaster happened and his face was splashed by the noodle soup.

Just as he was about to have a seizure, he looked down and saw an exquisitely embroidered purse in his bowl, and he couldn't help being taken aback.

"What is this...?"

The person who lost the purse was also stunned.

From the window on the second floor by the side of the street, a girl in pink was staring blankly at the scene downstairs, her delicate face flushed instantly.

Looking at the tall figure who threw a piece of broken silver towards the noodle stall table without looking sideways, and walked away, he couldn't help covering his face and sobbing loudly.
