A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 787 Each takes a town

Beauty is like water, embracing everything.

Wu Huaiyu finally entered the sage mode, leaning on the couch with a clear mind. A Liu's body was covered with sweat. Even though she was good at various musical instruments and danced, she was still very tired from the galloping ride just now.

Neither of them spoke.

It was rare for Wu Huaiyu to enjoy this moment, while A Liu snuggled into his arms with a smile on her lips. She enjoyed this moment very much, and even imagined that she would be pregnant this time and give birth to twins after ten months of pregnancy. , the boy is as handsome and smart as Wu Guo, and the girl is as beautiful as her,
  He even imagined that the two children would grow up healthily and happily. They would grow up very quickly. The boy would be tall and handsome, and he could ride and shoot well. He could even write poetry. He was a poet like his father. He was still young and promising. He would become a purple boy before he was thirty. She was a high-ranking official, and her daughter was also beautiful and smart. She married the legitimate son of a meritorious noble family in Chang'an and became a noble lady...

As she was thinking about it, she suddenly couldn't help laughing.

Huaiyu stroked her hair and was brought back from his thoughts by the laughter, "What are you laughing at? You look very happy?"

She was a little embarrassed, but she said it anyway, "It's like I had a dream when I was awake. I have been in the dream my whole life, so happy."

Is Huang Liang a dream?

Huaiyu smiled,
  "I'm going back to Chang'an in a few days,"

A Liu suddenly felt her heart beat violently and her breathing became rapid. She sat up in panic, "A Lang is leaving?"

"Um,"

"What should I do then?"

"You can go back to Yongzhou first. I will buy you a big house there, and you can live with Teacher Dugu."

A Liu started to cry. Although they didn't get along for long, this girl really fell in love with Huai Yu. At first, she might just be Mu Qiang. He was a noble man who could control countless lives and deaths in Lingnan.

Later, after getting in touch with her, she admired his talent. He was so versatile, and later she liked his gentleness. Even though she was of such a humble status, he never looked down upon her. When the two of them got along, they always made her so happy.

Unconsciously, she couldn't leave him, and her heart was completely captured.

She has even thought of names for their children, and it seems that they have already thought of them for the next few decades.

But now he suddenly has to leave.

She was devastated,
  It seems that he finally woke up from his dream. He was originally just a humble musician of the Ning family. After being given to Wu Xiangguo, although he was favored for a period of time, so what?

After all, she is a bitch,

Even if the Prime Minister granted her immunity, her current status is only as a musician hired by Prime Minister Wu, and she cannot even be considered as an ordinary housewife.

She cried loudly, tears streaming down her face.

Wu Huaiyu was a little surprised.
  It's also a bit pitiful.

He reached out and took her into his arms, "I just have to go back to Chang'an temporarily for urgent matters. I will be away for two or three months at most, and I will be back soon."

A Liu's face showed surprise, but he couldn't believe it, "Xiang Guo must be coaxing slaves,"

"I'm in an emergency this time, so I can't take you with me, but I will be back soon."

A Liu's face improved a little and she stopped sobbing, but she was still uneasy. She was afraid of being abandoned. It was thousands of miles away from Chang'an, which was too far.

Maybe this is the farewell, and there is no possibility of seeing each other again.

"Bring the slave with you. The slave can also ride a horse and will not hinder the Prime Minister."

"You are a weak woman. Traveling long distances is too hard. I can't bear to do it."

As soon as these words came out, she started crying again, but this time she felt happy in her heart.

After finally comforting her and making her believe that she would come back, A Liu burst into tears and smiled, but still couldn't let go of Huai Yu and was about to leave.

She was very bold and entangled her,
  Be proactive again.

This time, it's not just gentle, but also a little crazy, as if it has a sense that even if this is the last time, it will leave an immortal memory.

Or maybe she wanted twins.

·······
  The next day, when she woke up early in the morning, she actually asked for it again.

Huaiyu wants to go to Beijing, but he still needs the emperor's consent. The memorial has been sent out quickly, but it still needs time. Fortunately, he still has a lot of things to arrange.

I got up late in the morning,
  People are still very energetic. Perhaps this is the benefit of being young. At the age of twenty-five, you are at your strongest.
  Handsome account.

Huang Cheng and Gong Xing have been waiting for the second surrender for a long time.

The two of them have been undergoing transformation for a long time, and now they are quite respectful. One is the governor of Sitong Prefecture, and the other is the governor of Longzhou Prefecture.

However, now that Wu Huaiyu wants to change these two states into Zhengzhou and return them to their native places, their positions as governors will no longer be guaranteed.

But the two of them did not dare to be dissatisfied, because now the imperial army is stationed in these two places. Although the soldiers under their command are still barbarians, they are all surrendered soldiers, and they are not entirely their original subordinates, they are soldiers who have passed through the army. After reorganization, all kinds of sand are mixed in,
  Their control is no longer strong.

Besides, after this period of time, the mentality of the two of them has also undergone earth-shaking changes, and they are no longer the same as before.

Anti-Tang? Even if they had ten courages, they wouldn't dare to do it now.

Huaiyu enters the account,
  The two of them stood up immediately, walked forward quickly to greet them, and even knelt down to worship.
  "Meet the Prime Minister."

Two sturdy men, both known for their bravery among the barbarians, one was the former thirteenth son of the Huang family, and the other was the young master of Longzhou.

But now, they knelt down and called Huaiyu's father.

The word "adult" was basically used to refer to parents in the Tang Dynasty in the Central Plains.
  Most Tang people, no matter how ungrateful they are, would not be able to call others "sir".

It's not that these two didn't understand, but they knew it well and deliberately shouted like this. Anyway, they even publicly called themselves sons of Wu Xiangguo.

But Wu Huaiyu looked down on these two sons. He now had nine adopted sons, and he didn't want to accept adopted sons randomly, especially since these two were much older than himself, and it was very inappropriate to accept them as adopted sons.

Both Quan Zhirang, the envoy of the Lingnan by-election, and Zhang Yungu, the imperial censor who oversaw the Lingnan by-election, will probably take part in his book immediately.

"Get up,"

Huaiyu waved to the two of them calmly.

He fetched tea leaves, boiled water to make a pot of tea, and poured a cup for the two of them. The two of them sat there quietly, not daring to disturb them.

"Hangxi has been in chaos recently. The people in the rivers are fighting and becoming a mess. This is not good. The prime minister wants stability so that everyone can live a good life. Fighting and killing are not good after all."

The two of them took the tea respectfully and quickly said yes.

"Sun Chong, the governor of Qinzhou, sent the town general Ning Shijing to lead the Qinzhou regiment and his disciples to Shangsi to quell the rebellion. He has already killed the rebel governor of Shangsi. I have also declared Ning Shijing as Shangsizhou as promised in advance. Governor."

The two of them talked about Ning Shijing's bravery and martial arts.

Huaiyu picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said slowly, "The Prime Minister previously went to the imperial court and requested that Longzhou be divided into Chongzhou, and that Sitongzhou, Zuozhou, and Longzhou be returned to their original state and promoted to Zhengzhou of the imperial court. , the court has agreed to this matter,"

The two of them were shocked and felt pain in their hearts, but they did not dare to say anything.

"After the four prefectures of Chongzhou, Zuozhou, Longzhou, and Sitongzhou were transferred back to their native lands, the imperial court attached great importance to them. Therefore, the first batch of governors and other officials were directly selected and transferred from the Ministry of Personnel."

"But don't worry, the prime minister's country will also take care of you,"

"Huang Cheng, I'll give you a town of troops. You go to Hanzhou to quell the rebellion. Once you're done, I'll make you the governor of Hanzhou, hereditary."

"Gong Xing, the Prime Minister will also give you a town of troops. You go to Siming Prefecture to quell the chaos. After the incident is completed, you will also be appointed as the governor of Siming Prefecture and promised to be hereditary."

The hereditary governorship means that it is still Jisi Tuzhou, not the imperial state. This is a territory that is passed down from generation to generation.

Of course, Hanzhou and Simingzhou in the Hanxi Basin are not as good as Longzhou and Sitongzhou on the main stream of Zuoxi River. But now that those two states have been converted from native lands to rivers, Wu Xiangguo can still give them a native state. They have already It is extremely satisfying.

However, the premise is that they must be able to kill the governors and chiefs of the original state, and they must be able to suppress the chiefs below.

"Thank you, Mr. Xiangguo." The two of them knelt down and thanked again excitedly. They were somewhat confident about going to fight against the two states. After all, they were not fighting alone. There was also Wu Xiangguo and the imperial court behind them. Just the imperial flag. , it works very well.

"You two are going south to conquer. You must cooperate with each other, help each other, and work hard. This is a hereditary state. If it is done, it will be a legacy for thousands of years."

These words are also somewhat alarming. If the fight is not successful, then the village will lose its store if the benefits are passed.

Each leads a town, and the auxiliary army organized into [-] surrendered soldiers is their greatest asset. Of course, Wu Huaiyu also said, if you can recruit some of the disciples from the original Dongzhai family to join the army, etc. , he also does not interfere.

Anyway, he will give them equipment of [-] men each, as well as three months of food and grass.

Otherwise, you have to rely on your own efforts.

If you can kill the governor, you will be the new governor. If you can stand firm, the territory will be yours. If you can't defeat him and cannot stand, then there is nothing to say.

But as long as they can kill the original governor, they are still very likely to secure their position by holding on to the tiger-skin flag of the Tang Dynasty. When the time comes, they can collect money and food.

The two of them obeyed this arrangement.

Huang Cheng made a request, "The general is willing to lead a town to quell the Hanzhou rebellion for the imperial court, but I ask the Prime Minister to send more camp officers to serve as the general."

"The general also wants to recruit three more battalions of disciples to assist in the conquest, and promises to disband them after pacifying Hanzhou,"

He was willing to pay for the expenses of the [-] disciples at his own expense, but asked Wu Huaiyu to sell them some equipment and weapons. He was willing to pay for them out of his own pocket, and he could even increase the price.

When Gong Xing heard this, he quickly expressed that he also had such a request.

The Zhenxie army only had [-] surrendered troops. The number was too small. They wanted to go to Hanxi to conquer. They were afraid that they would not be able to defeat them, so they were willing to recruit another [-] troops at their own expense.

It's not that he can't recruit more, but he's afraid that if he recruits too many, Prime Minister Wu will be dissatisfied.
  Three thousand young men can be regarded as a minimum confidence. If they can purchase some more sophisticated weapons and equipment from the imperial court, they will have more confidence.

As for Wu Huaiyu's initiative to send more court officers to serve in their army, this is also necessary. This is like a native dog voluntarily lying down to its owner and exposing its belly. This shows loyalty.

Of course, the addition of military attachés from the imperial camp can also greatly enhance their combat effectiveness.

After being captured for so long, the two of them still learned a lot of real things.
