Horse on the World

Chapter 427

The Dingzhou Changsheng Division fought hard in Luzhou and made great strides. However, Dingzhou, as the source of the war, appeared to be quite calm. Ordinary people don't even know that Dingzhou has started fighting abroad again.This can be achieved, of course, because Dingzhou has been fully prepared for the Northern Expedition and has been planning for a long time. Secondly, Dingzhou has become increasingly prosperous in the past few years. A war of this intensity no longer warrants the mobilization of the whole prefecture.

Li Qing went to the front line in person to take charge of the Northern Expedition and stationed in Dingzhou. Of course, Shang Haibo was in charge of the overall work. Of course, due to the existence of Lu Yiming and Qingfeng, Shang Haibo was actually mainly in charge of military affairs. However, the daily operation of Dingzhou still relies on the concerted efforts of these three carriages.

Shang Haibo's residence is only a mile away from the Zhenxihou's Mansion. Although it is not majestic, it still occupies a large area. As a southerner, Shang Haibo has stayed in Dingzhou for a long time, and his personality has changed a lot. The house building lacks the elegance of southern land, but it has more grandeur of Dingzhou. Now there are more than 100 people in the Shangfu, most of whom are relatives who came here and there to vote. Distant relatives, when Shang Haibo was down and down, some relatives from wealthy families didn't want to see him, but after Shang Haibo arrived in Dingzhou, he rose day by day, and now he is even more famous. As Li Qing's chief counselor, Dingzhou The real power figure, who doesn't know, who doesn't know?As a result, some relatives came from thousands of miles away to vote, and as the wars broke out in the Central Plains, more and more people came to him.

For these people, Shang Haibo himself does not like to see them very much, but in this era, the power and ideas of the clan are not something he can compete with. If he really shuts out these people, his reputation will be greatly affected , I can only hold these people by pinching their noses, and choose some capable people among them and arrange some insignificant positions. The right is to let them have a source of income to support their families. Wu Zhuo, if he is forced to go out to find a job to earn a living, Shang Haibo's face will not look good.

In addition to these people, there are dozens of personal guards and soldiers in the Shang Mansion, as well as some servant girls. The personal guards are selected by Shang Haibo from the army. It is very difficult to say whether there are a few weeds among the people sent by the government, even those maids and flower workers, Shang Haibo has no idea whether there are any members of the Statistics and Investigation Department among them.For Qingfeng, Shang Haibo has a deep fear.Although Mingyan from the Military Intelligence Department investigated these people to the bottom, and dug out all eighteen generations of their ancestors, and dismissed some people calmly, but is it really cleaned up?

Sitting in the study, the resourceful Shang Haibo is now a little worried, and there is no other reason. Today, Princess Qingcheng of the Houfu sent someone to summon him.What does Princess Qingcheng want to see herself at this time mean?Shang Haibo couldn't think of a reason for the moment, the commander had just left Dingzhou, Princess Qingcheng summoned him, what mystery was hidden in it?

After learning the dragon-slaying technique, he sold it to the emperor's house. Shang Haibo, who had a heart for virtue, had been down and out for half his life, but he never changed his ambition. A chance brought him to Dingzhou, where he met the same down-and-out and difficult man as he was back then. Li Qing, in a few years, Dingzhou has risen. As the assistant Li Qing step by step to today, he is also proud of his achievements in the process of being convinced by Li Qing step by step. Li Qing's power is growing day by day. , let him see the opportunity to realize his ambition.Conquering the world is just a process, but what Shang Haibo values ​​more is the huge empire that will unify the world in the future.

Establish a heart for the world, establish a life for the people, inherit the knowledge of the past, and create peace for all generations.This is the highest state of every scholar.And Shang Haibo was even more fascinated.One day, when you live in the imperial court, and use what you have learned in your chest, so that the world does not pick up lost things, does not close the door at night, and the rivers and seas are clear, then it will not be a mistake to come to this world.

Today's Dingzhou is approaching this goal step by step, so Shang Haibo's considerations are not limited to the present, but also focus on the future. In his opinion, there is no force in the current Dachu that can stop the Marshal's footsteps. It was only a matter of time before the commander-in-chief ascended to that position, and as the chief counselor, Dingzhou was second only to Li Qing in real power.Therefore, he wanted to suppress all the uneasy factors that would affect the empire in the future.

The commander-in-chief is good at everything, Shang Haibo thought to himself, whether it is martial arts or martial arts, Li Qing's talent has made Shang Haibo amazed. To be able to assist such a famous master is really every counselor's luck, but the fly in the ointment is However, the commander-in-chief showed decisiveness in governing the country and the army, but he hesitated and went back and forth in internal affairs, which made Shang Haibo very uneasy.The commander-in-chief values ​​family affection and friendship, which is indeed a rare virtue for an ordinary person, but it is a fatal flaw for a person with ambitions in the world.

The so-called tyrants are mostly extinct. They will decisively knock down people or behaviors that may endanger their own behavior, but obviously, Marshal Li can't do it.

From Shang Haibo's point of view, the general's family affairs are now clearly endangering the stability of the empire in the future. Although there are no signs of it now, there will inevitably be a big outbreak at a suitable time in the future.

For Qingfeng, as a comrade-in-arms fighting for a goal, Shang Haibo admires it very much. Qingfeng's performance makes most men feel ashamed. He feels lucky to have such a comrade-in-arms, but when it comes to another undisclosed identity of Qingfeng, Pang Ji of the commander, and a woman who has been popular with the commander, Shang Haibo feels that this is too dangerous.Especially after Jiyue was accepted by the commander-in-chief as his concubine and gave birth to the eldest son for the commander-in-chief, this sense of crisis made Shang Haibo feel like a thorn in his back.

Shang Haibo was not unaware of Qingfeng's political layout, but he couldn't contain it, because Qingfeng's actions were too beautiful for him to grasp any handles. On the contrary, because of his aggressiveness all the time, Qingfeng seemed to be Backing down made the commander-in-chief lean towards her side a little bit.

Qingfeng, if you are not the handsome woman, if your sister did not give birth to the eldest son for the handsome, how wonderful it would be!Whenever there is no one in the middle of the night, Shang Haibo would sigh.Having such a brilliant person as his opponent made Shang Haibo vigilant, but at the same time he felt extremely excited.I will never lose to you.

Interfering in politics in the harem has always been a taboo for rulers. The commander-in-chief may not realize this yet, but when he really gets to that position, the commander-in-chief will definitely understand.

For Princess Qingcheng, Shang Haibo has never paid too much attention to this mistress who married to Dingzhou with obvious political goals. In his opinion, Princess Qingcheng obviously belongs to the kind of woman with well-developed limbs, big breasts and no brains. It can be seen clearly that she was defeated embarrassingly in several confrontations, but Qingcheng's princess status is very important to Dingzhou.

Shang Haibo believes that after the commander-in-chief pacifies the world, Princess Qingcheng's status as the mistress will help the commander-in-chief quickly integrate local forces. Shuai and Qingcheng's descendants also have the blood of the Great Chu royal family in their veins. Under the inevitable situation of dynastic change, these people can only retreat and accept this ending.

Even better, after the Marshal wins, the original Great Chu Royal Family will inevitably be purged, at least politically, it will no longer be possible to do anything, which also wipes out any possibility of the later party intervening in politics. When a princess becomes a queen, even the most stupid politicians will not work for her, because she must be the target of the government and the opposition.

But if all this comes to naught and Qingfeng wins, Shang Haibo will tremble a little. Jiyue will be at the head of the harem, Anmin will become the crown prince, and Qingfeng will hold a powerful authority. Such a powerful combination will be unmatched.

Unless the commander gets rid of Qingfeng!If Shang Haibo wanted to, but based on Shang Haibo's understanding of Li Qing, he knew that it was impossible. Maybe the commander would cut off all Qingfeng's power, but as long as Qingfeng was alive, her influence would exist.

The best way is to let Qingcheng win this harem competition and let his son ascend the throne.

At this time, Qingcheng summoned herself, did Qingcheng also realize this problem?In Dingzhou, there were not many people that Qingcheng could rely on. Yan Nanfei was sent away far away. Although Qin Ming had thousands of troops, they were under the control of Lu Dalin. Maybe Qingcheng finally figured it out. Zhou, with a clear-cut banner, is the only one who has always supported her.

"Master, are you going to meet the princess at the residence? If you want to go, you should start now!" Shang Jing walked into the study and asked with his hands down.Shang Jing is an old servant in Shang Haibo's old family, and the person Shang Haibo trusts most.

Shang Haibo stood up: "Go, the mistress has a call, how can we not go as ministers? Otherwise, won't people say that I, Shang, are arrogant and arrogant?"

"But master?" Shang Jing has followed Shang Haibo for a long time, and he is well aware of some conflicts in Dingzhou.

Shang Haibo said proudly: "I am still a certain person who walks straight, sits upright, is upright and is not afraid of the shadow being crooked, what is there to be afraid of, prepare the horse and go to the waiting mansion!"

"Yes, master!" Shang Jing bowed his head and stepped back.

A moment later, under the protection of dozens of personal soldiers, Shang Haibo swaggered through the market and went straight into the Zhenxi Hou Mansion.

At this time, on the road from Fuzhou to Dingzhou, a black carriage, escorted by hundreds of black-clothed personal guards, was galloping towards Dingzhou. breeze.
