Tiantang

Chapter 229
Chapter 238

Guo Xi fled back to Guo's house in a panic, causing shock in Guo's house.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xun went to Guo's house in person and talked to Guo Ziyi about Zhang Xuan's arrangements for Guo Mi.

On the surface, Zhang Xuan tied Guo Min into Huihe and handed it over to the Huihe people for punishment, but in fact, Ge Le, the prince of Huihe, had reached a tacit agreement with Zhang Xuan-this matter was turned into a trivial matter, and no further investigation will be pursued.

At this moment, Huihe Khan Guli Pei Luo and Prince Gele were also on their way to Lingzhou.

In order to maintain the friendly relationship with Datang, Huihe must get the "big gift package" that Zhang Xuan talked about with Ge Le before - tax cuts and promotion of trade, opening up the city to allow Huihe merchants to enter and open shops, etc. I won't do anything to Guo Yi again.

Zhang Xuan reckoned, that is, to reprimand a few words, impose a light punishment, and then send it back to Datang.A storm, and this is the end of the case.

With Guo Ziyi's own influence here, and the authority of Zhang Xuan's governor, the matter will come to an end.Of course, the premise is that there will be no other troubles.

In this way, Guo Ziyi's two sons were preserved, and his career prospects were not affected in the slightest.

"The governor is so kind, Guo Ziyi is so ashamed! Guo Ziyi is ashamed! Even if Guo Ziyi is smashed to pieces, it is difficult to repay the governor's kindness!" Guo Ziyi burst into tears, looking in the direction of the governor's mansion, fell to his knees with a plop , falling down.

Behind Guo Ziyi, members of the Guo family also fell to their knees.

Guo Yao burst into tears, he was a little bookish after all, Zhang Xuan's actions moved him to tears, and his mood was very agitated.

Guo Fu blinked her bright eyes, knelt on the spot, and looked at Zhang Xun thoughtfully.

"General Guo, there is no need to be like this. Get up. The governor is dedicated to serving the country. General Guo is a good general in the army. He will naturally try to preserve it. The governor asked his subordinates to tell General Guo that he must strictly guard the door in the future, so that there will be no more troubles. If something goes wrong, even if it is the governor, he can no longer protect himself."

"The Governor is impartial in enforcing the law. This time, General Guo made an exception. I hope that General Guo will keep in mind the teachings of the Governor, and must not disappoint the Governor's hard work."

"Master Zhang, Mr. Guo is ashamed." Guo Ziyi nodded generously, stood up and bowed to Zhang Xun, "Thank you Mr. Zhang for mediating, Mr. Guo will keep this kindness in his heart, and dare not forget it!"

……

……

Zhang Xuan came back from his tour of the military camp outside the city, accompanied by Guo Ziyi.

Regarding the army horses under Guo Ziyi, Zhang Xuan actually had other arrangements.In his plan, only the 2000 people led by Feng Changqing will be stationed in Lingzhou and guard the Dudu Mansion in the future, and they will be his immediate confidantes.

Of course, how to arrange it depends on the specific situation.

Zhang Xuan didn't mention the matter of Guo Ji and Guo Chen, and Guo Ziyi didn't express his gratitude verbally again. He would show his loyalty and gratitude with practical actions, and there was no need to talk about all of these.

Originally, there is one more thing that needs to be arranged recently, and that is how to arrange Li Guangbi.

It is obviously too wasteful for Li Guangbi to stay in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion as an idle Sima.Zhang Xuan has been thinking about whether to put Li Guangbi on the front line against Tubo.

Li Guangbi is a general who has his own way of defending the city and is good at defensive warfare.Even Guo Ziyi couldn't deny this.

But Zhang Xuan suddenly changed his mind, and decided to keep Li Guangbi by his side for the time being, and observe for a while.

Of course, they are also waiting for a suitable time before sending Li Guangbi to station.

Back at the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, Hua Nuer had already made tea and was waiting.

Because Zhang Xuan is very safe in Lingzhou, and there are strong generals such as Xiao Shisanlang, Lei Wanchun and Nan Jiyun by his side, Hua Nuer is happy to be at leisure, and stays in the governor's mansion as a temporary chief of the inner courtyard steward.She replaces Zhang Xuan in managing the servants in the inner courtyard every day, and she never tires of it.

"This is the clear tea made by my servant from the spring water outside Lingzhou City. You have a taste." Hua Nu'er rolled up her cuffs, revealing her pink and tender arms like lotus roots, and poured tea for Zhang Xuan.

In summer, the weather is gradually getting hotter. She is only wearing a thin gauze skirt. When she bends down like this, the waves on her chest will involuntarily "surging", revealing a deep "cleavage", which is really eye-catching. .

Zhang Xuan glanced subconsciously, feeling a little hot in his heart.

He is psychologically mature, and this body is at the age of youthful vigor, so the desire is particularly strong.

After leaving Chang'an for a long time, without a woman by his side, and guarding this fit and mature female fairy all day long, if he doesn't have a little thought, then he is not a normal man.

From Chang'an to Longshuo, the relationship between the two has actually changed quietly.

Whether Zhang Xuan admits it or not, whether Hua Nuer approves it or not, she is slowly developing towards the role of concubine next to Zhang Xuan.

On weekdays, some small ambiguities that are vague, vague, and indistinct, once they gradually ferment, they will not be able to stop the mountain torrents.

Seemingly aware of Zhang Xuan's eager attention, Hua Nuer blushed charmingly, and quickly sat up straight.

Zhang Xuan felt ashamed in his heart.Although he had some thoughts, he couldn't take the initiative to do it.Although, he felt that his mentality was somewhat hypocritical and shameless.

Of course, he kept Hua Nuer by his side in order to protect his own safety. If he kept Hua Nuer in this way, he would have some mental obstacles in his heart.

Zhang Xuan grabbed the teacup, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

Hua Nuer frowned, and said angrily, "This is tea, you have to taste it slowly, do you really think it's wine? Drink it all at once, it's tasteless."

Zhang Xuan took a deep breath, glanced at Hua Nuer's attractive body, and said in a low voice, "Tasting tea requires mood, now I just want to drink!"

"Some women are just a glass of aged wine, which makes people want to stop..." Zhang Xuan suddenly sighed strangely.

Hua Nuer's face turned red, but she turned her back.

How could she not see Zhang Xuan's thoughts, if Zhang Xuan really wanted her, she couldn't refuse at this moment—it seemed that she didn't reject it too much in her heart.

But what Hua Nuer feels most ashamed of is that Zhang Xuan obviously has a flirtatious heart, but he is not reserved and puts on airs, he keeps teasing her with words all day long, as if he wants to make Hua Nuer take the initiative to throw himself into his arms hug.

Hua Nuer snorted coldly.Xindao this man is too shameless, no wonder the master said that there is no good thing in this world man!

Zhang Xuan was about to tease her a few more words, when suddenly Nan Jiyun said loudly outside the hall, "Great Governor, Mr. Wu Xian is here to visit!"

Zhang Xuan lifted his spirits, and waved to Hua Nuer, "You avoid it for a while, I have a guest."

With a cold face, Hua Nuer got up and left.

"Come in." Zhang Xuan said calmly.

Not long after, Wu Xian walked in with a businessman dressed in Han Chinese, but upon closer inspection he was definitely from Tubo. Wu Xian respectfully bowed down to Zhang Xuan, and said in a low voice, "Governor, the villain was ordered to send the Tibetans to Stanley. The prince’s special envoy brought him to—Great Governor, this person is Gyatso, the retainer of Prince Stanley. Lord Gyatso, why don’t you hurry to see the Great Governor?”

The Tubo man Gyatso was majestic in stature, but he had a certain power in his gestures.

With one hand on his chest, Gyatso bowed down, and made a Tubo salute to Zhang Xuan, "Xiao Ke Gyatso, I pay my respects to the Great Governor of Tang Longshuo!"

Zhang Xuan smiled, "Sit down, please sit down."

"Great governor, the villain has passed on the idea of ​​the governor to the second prince of Tubo, Stanley, and Prince Stanley has specially sent Mr. Gyatso to discuss important matters with the governor." Wu Xian bowed again and said softly, "The villain will leave first. gone."

Wu Xian was very smart, he knew that what Zhang Xuan wanted to talk about with this Tubo man was definitely not something he, a businessman, could participate in.The more he knew about this kind of thing, the less good it would be for him.

"Just wait in the mansion." Zhang Xuan waved his hand, signaling Wu Xian to step back first.

When Wu Xian's figure was out of sight, Gyatso cupped his fists at Zhang Xuan and said, "Governor, my prince sent Gyatso here to ask how sincere the Great Governor is!"

"Oh?" Zhang Xuan smiled slightly, stared at Gyatso and said indifferently, "I am quite sincere, but I don't have much sincerity when looking at Prince Stanley."

***************************************
On the outskirts of Yanzhou, Feng Changqing, Zhou Xuchu, Chen Tong and others led an army to guard Princess Wanchun's guard of honor and marched slowly.It had been more than a month before the army arrived in Yanzhou, halfway to Lingzhou.According to Feng Changqing's prediction, in two more months, he will almost reach Lingzhou.

This is the task Zhang Xuan entrusted to him when he left. The slower the army marches, the better.

While the army was walking, suddenly more than ten riders came up from behind. It was a special envoy from Chang'an Palace, a middle-aged eunuch, and a guard of more than ten palace guards.

Zhou Xuchu galloped over on his horse, clasped his fists at Feng Changqing immediately, and said, "Lord Feng, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Jian Guo sent someone to send a secret letter to the governor, look at this..."

Feng Changqing smiled wryly, "Let him come here, I will tell you the truth."

The army paused.

The eunuch rode over and glanced at Feng Changqing proudly.

These eunuchs who came out of the palace were always arrogant and rude, Feng Changqing had a calm mind, how could he be as knowledgeable as an eunuch.

He took the initiative to get off the horse, cupped his fists and said, "I'm under the title of Chang Qing, may I ask why your father-in-law is here?"

"Master Feng, our family was ordered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Jian Kingdom to convey the imperial edict to Governor Zhang. I wonder where Governor Zhang is? Hurry up and ask him to come out to accept the imperial edict. Our family must return to Beijing as soon as possible!" The eunuch's voice was thin and thin. waved.

Feng Changqing smiled, "I'm sorry, Commander Zhang is not in the army at the moment. Commander Zhang is worried about the military and government affairs in Longshuo, so he rushed to Longshuo first, and ordered me to lead the team."

The eunuch frowned, "This...His Highness personally explained, the imperial edict was to be handed over to Governor Zhang, but Governor Zhang is not in the army, how can our family explain to His Highness?"

Feng Changqing clasped his fists again with a smile and said, "If you can trust me, you can hand over the edict to me. I will present it in person when I meet the governor in the future. If you can't trust me, you can go to Lingzhou by yourself and hand it over to the governor. Dudu!"
