Soldiers come to the world

The chaisang county government is in chaos, the yard is full of hundreds of large boxes, soldiers and government servants are busy inside and out, packing up all kinds of things, this is not that the chaisang county government is moving, but that they are with the county government The office of the military office will be moved to Wuchang.

Liu Jing finally decided to move the military office to Wuchang, the reason is very simple, he is no longer the lord of a city, but the lord of a county, although he has deep feelings for Chaisang.

But feelings cannot allow him to effectively rule Jiangxia County. Chaisang cannot compare with Wuchang County in terms of city size, population, taxation, or concentration of aristocratic families.

"Those dozen or so boxes are the roster of soldiers, and they are all bamboo slips. Put them down carefully and don't fall!"

In the yard, dozens of soldiers were carefully carrying more than a dozen large boxes out of the room. A military marquis reminded them. At this moment, Xu Shu hurried in. He glanced in the yard, but did not find Liu Jing asked, "Marquis Ma Jun, have you seen Sima?"

Xu Shu is no longer the Chaisang county lieutenant now, he was appointed as the long history, the long history is actually the head of the staff, not an official official position of the imperial court, Yiji as the Jiangxia long history, is to represent Liu Jing in charge of the government, together with the county magistrate Jiang Xia's government affairs, Xu Shu is also a long history, but he is in charge of military affairs.

The soldiers in the military never cared about the officials in charge of government affairs, but Xu Shu was highly respected by the soldiers. In the hearts of the soldiers, Xu Shu was actually a military adviser. Ma Junhou hurried forward to salute, "Report to Changshi, Sima is in the room."

Xu Shu nodded, and walked quickly to Liu Jing's official room. In the official room, all the documents and other items were emptied, only empty bookshelves and tables. At this time, Liu Jing was sorting some of his books in the box. Is the last item removed.

"Sima made it easy for me to find!"

Xu Shu walked in with a smile, "I heard that Sima is patrolling the city. I have searched a lot around the city, and it turns out that he is still in the military office."

Liu Jing put the last book into the box, and said to the two soldiers next to him, "You can move it away!"

Two soldiers moved the bookcase out, and Liu Jing patted the dust off his clothes and asked with a smile, "Is there anything urgent?"

"What else can I do?"

Xu Shu sighed, "Tomorrow I will go to Xiangyang with Sima, so who will temporarily take over the affairs in my hands, Sima has been reluctant to appoint, I can't explain!"

Liu Jing glanced at him and said with a smile: "Isn't there three under Chang Shi who are working on it? You can share the matter among them. If there is anything, the three of them can discuss it."

"But... there must be a seal holder! Do you want me to appoint you too?" Xu Shu asked hesitantly.

Liu Jing nodded, "If Yuan Zhi has someone he trusts, he can appoint someone else."

Xu Shu smiled wryly in his heart. It turned out that the reason why Liu Jing kept silent was to let him handle this matter by himself. In fact, he also vaguely guessed, but he couldn't be sure, so he specifically came to confirm today. Xu Shu thought for a while and said: "Then Let Lu Sheng take over the seal!"

Lu Sheng was the clerk who followed Liu Jing in the Youjia Office, and was later transferred to be the leader of the Fancheng Gatekeeper Army, and then followed Liu Jing to Chaisang. He is now one of Xu Shu's three officers, although his ability is average, But considering his loyalty to Liu Jing, Xu Shu decided to hand over the Changshi Junyin to him.

Liu Jing smiled and did not interfere with Xu Shu's decision. He changed the topic and said, "Yesterday Wei Yan rushed back from Yangxin County overnight and advised me not to go to Xiangyang. He was worried that I would be detained in Xiangyang by the state herdsman. can not go?"

Xu Shu sighed slightly, "To tell you the truth, Sima has considered this issue, and Wei Yan's worry is justified, but there are pros and cons in everything, it depends on how Sima weighs it."

Liu Jing waved his hand, "Let's sit down and talk!"

Three days ago, Liu Jing received an official document from Xiangyang stating that November 62th would be Zhou Mu’s [-]nd birthday, and the Zhou Mu would have a lively celebration, ordering officials from all over Jingzhou to gather in Xiangyang to pay his respects. At the same time, Liu Jing also received a personal letter from Liu Biao, hoping that he could go to celebrate her birthday.

Obviously, Liu Biao's birthday this time was prepared for him, Liu Jing, and Liu Jing also guessed it, but he also had excuses not to go, such as Jiang Xia's navy increasing troops, Peng Ze, etc., but Liu Jing also realized that he really wanted to go. Occupy Jiangxia, still have to go to Xiangyang.

The two sat down, Liu Jing ordered someone to serve tea again, and Xu Shu said slowly: "Let's talk about not going first! First of all, we don't have to worry about the state pastor detaining Sima, secondly we occupy Jiangxia, and finally force the state pastor to have to Admitting the facts, from this point of view, if we don’t go to Xiangyang, we can still occupy Jiangxia, but the disadvantages are also obvious.”

Liu Jing nodded silently. In fact, he was more concerned about the disadvantages. He also thought of some disadvantages, but he wanted to hear Xu Shu's opinion more.

Xu Shu took a sip of tea and continued: "First of all, the young master will be charged with unfilial piety. Although we can find all kinds of excuses, those excuses can only coax foolish people and stupid women. The officials of Jingzhou understand in their hearts that it is the young master who refuses to Going to Xiangyang, coupled with the publicity of Cai Mao and others, who refused to attend even uncle's birthday, the son's reputation will definitely be damaged."

"What else is there besides fame?"

Xu Shu laughed again: "Actually, reputation is nothing. After all, there are people who will understand your difficulties. The biggest disadvantage is how will you get Jingzhou in the future? If you don't want to go to Xiangyang this time, but become independent in Jiangxia without authorization, that's a big problem. Will offend most Jingzhou officials.

The reason why Huang Zu is hated by people is because he separatized Jiangxia, and the Jingzhou government decree is invalid for Jiangxia. If the young master becomes Huang Zu's second, how many Jingzhou officials will support him when the young master takes Jiang Xia to annex Jingzhou in the future? "

Speaking of this, Liu Jing understood what Xu Shu meant. Xu Shu wanted him to go to Xiangyang.

Liu Jing laughed, "Since we've reached this point, I'll go! But I have to make some preparations, lest I really be detained in Xiangyang."

Xu Shu went back to his official room to arrange a replacement, Liu Jing thought about it again, and then ordered his subordinates: "Prepare the horse, I'm going to the Tao Mansion!"

． ． ． ． ． ． ．

The Tao Mansion was also in chaos at this time. Since Liu Jing's ruling center was going to move to Wuchang, the Tao family had to consider the future of the family.

After some internal family negotiations, the Tao family made a decision that Chaisang is still the foundation of the Tao family, the family ancestral hall is still in Chaisang, but the family business is transferred to Wuchang.

So in the past few days, the Tao family has also started a major relocation. In Wuchang City, there are also houses of the Tao Mansion, as well as warehouses and businesses. Wuchang.

In the front yard of the Tao family, Tao Sheng was busy directing the move. Although it was early winter and the weather was very cold, Tao Sheng was still sweating profusely. At this time, a family member rushed to report, "Patriarch, Mr. Jing Come, just outside the gate of the mansion!"

Tao Sheng was startled, and hurriedly walked to the gate of the mansion. He walked out of the gate quickly, and saw Liu Jing standing on the steps smiling and waiting patiently. Tao Sheng hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "Why are you here today?"

"There are a few things I want to discuss with the Tao family, so I came here to visit."

Liu Jing visited the Tao family once after the war ended, and came here to propose marriage. The Tao family had already agreed to the marriage, but Tao Lie made a request, hoping that the marriage would be approved by the state shepherd.

This request should be said to be completely reasonable. Liu Jing's parents are both deceased. If he has no uncles or close relatives, then it doesn't matter if he doesn't need the consent of his elders.

But Liu Jing happened to have an uncle named Liu Biao, and he had a high status, so Liu Jing should tell his uncle first if he wanted to.

This time when Liu Jing returned to Xiangyang, to a certain extent, he also hoped that Liu Biao would agree to the marriage; Liu Jing also knew that there was a high possibility that Liu Biao would not agree, but that was another matter.

Tao Sheng thought Liu Jing was here to discuss the marriage, so he smiled and said, "Please come in quickly! Zhan'er's grandfather is also there, let's talk about it together."

Liu Jing followed Tao Sheng into the gate and walked towards the inner hall.

In the inner hall, Tao Lie was chatting and laughing with more than a dozen juniors, and Tao Zhan was sitting beside her grandfather. She was surprised to find that Liu Jing had actually come, her face suddenly turned red, and she hurriedly avoided it.

Since the Tao family officially agreed to Liu Jing's marriage proposal, it meant that she was already Liu Jing's fiancée. This kind of relationship made her feel shy, and she dared not associate with Liu Jing like before.

According to etiquette and customs, men and women can communicate like friends before marriage, but once they enter the marriage process, when they meet again, it will be the wedding night in the bridal chamber.

Tao Zhan reacted quickly. She stood up and walked towards the back door. There was a screen in front of the back door. Tao Zhan walked quickly into the screen, but stopped, hid behind the screen, and watched Liu Jing quietly.

At this time, Liu Jing walked into the inner hall, knelt down and bowed, "Liu Jing pays homage to grandfather!"

Behind the screen, Tao Zhan pursed his lips and laughed. This 'grandfather' shouted sweetly, which made her very happy.

Tao Lie and Liu Jing established a deep friendship during the attack on Chaisang last time, and this time Liu Jing and Jiangdong negotiated with Tao Family terms.

Moreover, Sun Quan also readily agreed, which also meant that Jiang Dong would no longer pursue the relationship between the Tao family and Liu Jing, and would no longer make things difficult for the Tao family's business, which made Tao Lie full of gratitude to Liu Jing.

Tao Lie stroked his beard and said with a smile, "My lord, please sit down, there is no need to perform this grand ceremony."

Liu Jing sat down and smiled, "I'm going to Xiangyang tomorrow, does grandfather know?"

Tao Lie glanced at Tao Sheng, and Tao Sheng nodded, "I've also heard about it. I heard that the state shepherd is going to celebrate his birthday, and officials from all counties with more than [-] shi will go to Xiangyang to pay their respects."

Tao Lie knew that things were not that simple, but some things were not easy for the Tao family to intervene, so he said with a smile: "Otherwise, the Tao family should prepare a birthday gift for Young Master!"

Liu Jing shook his head, "Thank you grandfather, I have already prepared a birthday gift. I have seized a lot of good things from Huang Zu's house, but the Tao family really needs to prepare a birthday gift."

Tao Lie was stunned, "My lord, do you mean that the Tao family is also going to celebrate their birthday?"

"Yes, my uncle gave me a letter, which also invited the Tao family to attend the birthday ceremony."

Tao Lie was silent for a while, then he sighed and said, "My lord, what Zhou Mu means is that he wants the Tao family to restore the previous offerings!"

Liu Jing smiled slightly, "If he is willing to resume the Tao family's business in Jingzhou, then I don't think it's a problem to resume the offering, at least there will be no loss."

Tao Lie pondered for a while, and with Liu Jing's words, he felt relieved, and it was not bad, not offending Liu Biao was the best result, so he nodded, "Okay! Then let Tao Li and the young master come together. Go to celebrate birthday."

Liu Jing had other ideas, he hesitated for a moment, and asked Tao Lie: "This time I want to invite Jiu Niang to go to Xiangyang with me, please allow me!"

Behind the screen, Tao Zhan's face turned red. She knew that Liu Jing wanted to take her to meet the elders of the family, probably Liu Biao, and her heart was pounding.

But when she changed her mind, she remembered Liu Biao's plan to marry her to Liu Cong as a concubine, threatening and luring the Tao family, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

At this time, Tao Lie laughed loudly, and readily agreed to Liu Jing's request, "This is what should be done, of course I will not object."
