A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 727: The Captain Fighting with Pandas
A group of military generals were noisy in the Duke's Mansion of Jin for three days.
More and more generals came every day, and the Wu family entertained them with good wine and food. Finally, they even set up a buffet barbecue. Later, not only the generals from the yamen of Zhuwei Mansion came, but also many local governors and governors who came to Beijing to gather. Came to watch the fun,

In particular, it is no secret that Lingnan is being discussed here, so the governors and governors serving in Lingnan or Jiangnan also came over because it concerned them.

"What does it look like?"

In the Tai Chi Palace,

Li Shimin felt helpless after hearing Zhang Anan's report.

"It's really outrageous. It is said that more than 100 sheep of the Duke of Jin were eaten in one day,"

"That's fine. Go quickly and drive them all away." Li Shimin laughed and scolded, "Are you going to eat the big ones?"

Zhang Anang saw that the emperor was still smiling even though he was scolding him. He knew that the emperor was not too angry about this matter, so he also smiled and said, "Those Qiu Ba people regard the Wu Xiang's palace as a military camp. I heard that they are not only in Jin There was a lot of eating and drinking at the Duke's mansion, and they also played polo, wrestling, etc."

"There was also a guy who was drunk and accidentally broke into the Leopard Room of the Prime Minister of Wu. He bumped into a brave animal, but he yelled at the brave animal, why did you hit me? Then the flower bear yelled, and he pointed at the bear and yelled, "What are you yelling at?" Then he was slapped by the bear, and as a result, he was rough-skinned and thick-skinned, and he actually started to struggle with the panda."

When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help but laugh angrily.

"Who won?"

"The idiot and the bear were fighting so hard that they rolled into a ball on the ground, attracting many people to watch."

"It's pretty awesome to be able to fight a panda. Who is this person?" Li Shimin knew that the flower bear raised by Wu Huaiyu's family was known as the iron-eating beast, also known as Pixiu or panda. It was black and white and looked silly. He likes to eat bamboo the most, but this guy is as fierce as a liger. His teeth can not only bite bamboo, but also eat iron.
Even a pack of wolves sometimes can't beat this bear in the mountains.Originally, Cheng Chumo returned to the capital from being appointed as the governor of Luzhou and brought a few animals back from Shu to be presented to the emperor. Li Shimin confiscated them, Cheng Yaojin slaughtered them for meat, and Wu Huaiyu took the rest and raised them.Later, more were transported, and some brown pandas were found from Longyou in Hanzhong to raise.

No matter what kind,

A slap came down as hard as that man-bear.

"This idiot is bought by Xi Jun,"

"Xi Junmai, what's your current position?" Li Shimin had never heard of this name.

"He once served as a cavalry captain in Weiwu Zhechong Prefecture in Liangzhou. He left the post three years ago due to the death of his mother, Ding You, and the period of mourning has just expired."

Li Shimin nodded, "Being able to fight a bear, even when drunk, this person has some abilities."

Zhang Anan said with a smile, "That fool is indeed rough-skinned and thick-flesh. If the people from the Duke of Jin's Mansion hadn't driven the pandas away quickly, he would have been beaten to death by a group of pandas."

Zhang Ananda rushed to the Duke of Jin's mansion according to the order.
He preached the holy edict and reprimanded everyone.
Everyone was a little panicked, and they all left obediently.
When people leave,

Wu Huaiyu invited Zhang Anan to have a cup of tea, but he did not refuse.

"Have you alarmed the saint?"

"It's been three days of turmoil, who in Chang'an City still doesn't know about the bustle in the Duke's Mansion of Jin?

"Isn't the saint angry?"

"What do you say?"

Huaiyu then smiled. Under normal circumstances, it would be very taboo for him, a dignified prime minister, to make such a fuss at home for three days and attract so many civil servants and military generals.
In fact, in the past two days, some officials and censors did impeach Wu Huaiyu, and some even labeled him as a party member.

The emperor now asked Zhang Anan to drive people away. In fact, his attitude was quite good and he was not really angry.

"Erlang is delighted to have Qilin'er. It's indeed worthy of joy, but the third birthday celebration shouldn't be too outrageous."

"Haha." Those Qiu Ba came to congratulate Wu Huaiyu on giving birth to Shiba Lang.When he came, he would talk nonsense about how he was trampling the south of the mountains and plowing over raccoon dogs.

Zhang Anan took out two things from his body and handed them to Huaiyu, "These are for your little Shiba Lang,"

A piece of jade is very gentle.

There is also a small sword carved from peach wood, which is very delicate and polished to a very shiny finish.

"Erlang is really amazing. He gave birth to eighteen sons in six years. I don't know how many nobles in Chang'an are envious of him. He is not only good at literature and martial arts, but also knows medical skills and practices Taoism. He is even capable of giving birth to sons."

The emperor only gave birth to twelve princes.

"Eighteen are not many. I, the eldest uncle of the Wu clan, is the one who is really powerful."

When Zhang Anan heard the name of Warrior Leng, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "That old farm slave has given birth to more than 70 children, over [-] years old, and now he has to have several children a year. Really." He shook his head, even if he didn't admire him,
Especially for a eunuch like him who had been castrated and lost his reproductive function, sometimes he really envied the warrior Lengwu Huaiyu who was able to have children.

The warrior Len has given birth to more than 100 children, and there is even a rumor in the market that Lao Wu has been unable to have children for a long time, but he still wants to take in many beautiful concubines every year, but he is not satisfied after taking them. The retainers and subordinates stole, but Lao Wu didn't care. Those concubines were pregnant, but they were not angry. They still raised them well and gave birth to them, still treating them as his own.

This rumor is of course a very vicious slander.

Of course it is impossible for Samurai Ryo to be like this, and generally not many people would believe such rumors.

But apart from the Warrior Leng, the Wu family is also quite capable of producing others.

People from the Wu family are not only able to give birth, but there are also very few babies that are miscarried or die in infancy.

The reason everyone recognized was that the blood of the Wu family was originally good, and the second reason was that Wu Huaiyu had a recipe for elixirs.After drinking a cup of tea, Zhang Anan was going back to the palace.

The emperor was not dissatisfied with Wu Huaiyu's partying at home for three days, nor did he ask him to go to the palace to explain.

Although the bustle in the Duke's Mansion of Jin is over,

However, the imperial court's plan to manage Lingnan was completely aroused. Qiu Ba and others could not come to the Prime Minister Wu's country to discuss it, but they could discuss it in their respective yamen.

The voices of conservative opponents such as Wei Zheng and Wen Yanbo were gradually drowned by this wave.

Now everyone who has some connections is scrambling to operate, and they are all thinking about how to get on the train south to Lingnan.

Company commander Sun Wuji greeted Wu Huaiyu. He wanted his eldest son, Changsun, to rush to Lingnan and become the governor of Qinzhou.

That was once the Ning family's base camp.

Changsun Chong is not only the nephew of the queen, but also the fiancé of Princess Changle. Now he is Zongzheng Shaoqing. From the fourth rank,

For a young nobleman who is not yet 20 years old, the emperor's prospective son-in-law has really reached a height that others cannot climb in their lifetime.
But for Changsun Wuji, he was still willing to send his son to a higher education.

Originally, he had discussed with Wu Huaiyu and wanted to arrange for Changsun Chong to go to Lingnan as a transshipment envoy, but now he changed it to be the governor of Qinzhou.

Qinzhou was originally the governor's office, but now it has been abolished. Because the number of households is too small, it is only a lower state, and its governor is the fourth rank.

"Can Dalang get used to the climate there?" Huaiyu asked with a smile.

"It is always good for young people to gain more experience. My uncle also stayed in Jiaozhi for a long time during the previous dynasty, and your brother Huaiyi is also in Guangzhou now?" Changsun Wuji is quite willing to give it up, and so is his eldest son. Take the initiative to send him to Lingnan.

But with the current trend, whether it was a gold plating in the past or whether you really plan to take the opportunity to make some achievements, this is indeed a good opportunity.

After all, he is a governor. After having this resume, his career will be different in the future.And if he can still make meritorious deeds there, it will be even more incredible.

With the current momentum, the imperial court is going to go big in Lingnan. Qinzhou is a very important place in Lingnan and a coastal port. It has great prospects in every aspect. If everything goes well, it will conquer the raccoons, open counties and villages, and establish households. Qi people,

Then the population of Qinzhou will increase rapidly. If some more states are merged into Qinzhou, Qinzhou can be promoted to Zhongzhou at any time, or even to upper state.
The standards for the number of households in upper, middle and lower states are [-], [-] and [-] households, and the population requirements for border states are even lower.

Changsun Chong's current Zongzheng Shaoqing is from the fourth rank. If he can become the governor of Qinzhou, he will directly be promoted to the fourth rank. If Qinzhou is promoted to Zhongzhou during his tenure, he will be directly promoted to the fourth rank. If he is promoted to Shangzhou, he will be directly promoted to the third rank.

Under normal circumstances, even if you are the emperor's son-in-law, one liter a year is nothing. How could you still be able to jump like this when you reach the fourth or fifth rank?

Of course, special circumstances are excluded, and you may encounter such special circumstances when you go to Lingnan now.

Changsun Wuji also had many sons, but they were all still young. His eldest son, Changsun Chong, was actually less than [-] years old.

"Does Dalang want to go to Lingnan himself?"

"Well, that's why he wants to go. Now, who among the distinguished sons and daughters of Chang'an City doesn't want to go to Lingnan?" Changsun Wuji said with a smile.

As he spoke, he mentioned Huaiyi again. Wu Huaiyi went to Shaozhou to serve as governor two years ago. Who would have thought that in just two years in Lingnan, he would achieve so many political achievements, and now he has been directly promoted to the governor of Guangzhou.

He was less than 30 years old and was the governor of Guangzhou. If he had known this, countless people would have fought for his head.

"My uncle's family is in Lang, and he also wants to go to Lingnan. He wants to go to Aizhou." Changsun Wuji said with a smile.

"Gao Langzhong?"

Gao Shilian's eldest son, Gao Jijin, was also Li Shimin's prospective son-in-law. He was the queen's cousin, and he became a son-in-law. He is now the doctor of the temple.With his background and his current position, he is still somewhat unqualified to serve as governor of a state in the mainland.

But if you say you are willing to take the initiative to transfer to Lingnan or even Jiaozhi, that is okay.

Aizhou, in the south of Jiaozhou, was Rinan County in the Sui Dynasty.

His father, Gao Shilian, was demoted to Zhuyuan County, Cochin. Now that he takes the initiative to go back, he is still following in his father's footsteps.

From being a doctor in the ancestral temple to becoming the governor of Aizhou, this is from the central to the local government, but it is also a promotion from the fifth rank to the fourth rank. Especially the official position of governor is unusual. It is a local chief official. It is very important to have this qualification.

Furthermore, if during this wave of Lingnan economic strategy, Aizhou can also deal with the wave of raccoon barbarians, and the number of household registrations will be increased, and the state level will be raised, it will be possible to upgrade the level in place. Such a good thing, then But it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

The two prospective princes-in-law and descendants are both willing to go to Lingnan.

It seems that this wind is indeed blowing very hard now.

At least, for example, Sun Wuji, the eldest son of Zhao Guogong who opened the Yitong Third Division, and Gao Shilian, Xu Guogong, who had just returned to the court, were willing to have their eldest son go to Lingnan, which meant that Lingnan had huge benefits beckoning.

Wu Huaiyu readily agreed and was willing to recommend Gao Xingxing as the governor of Aizhou and Changsun Chong as the governor of Qinzhou.

This is also a reward for Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian's support for other lists he recommended.
