Chapter 976: The sea is wide and the fish leaps
Although Du Shiyi told Longquan that Li Jian and his husband Meng Lingcha could not be exposed to the disadvantage of the dispute, so as not to backfire, after sending Duan Xiushi, he obtained Lai Zhen's own intention, and the eldest son, the former governor of the Four Towns of Anxi, volunteered to go to Beiting. In the past, Gai Jiayun took Lai Yao to replace him, but during his tenure as the governor of the Four Towns of the Four Towns, he rejected many shogunate officials and used military generals. Therefore, Lai Zhen went to Beiting and raised his arms. With Lai Yao's reputation as a tremendous attack on the western border, many people came to visit, and even many tribes showed corresponding kindness.
But Meng Lingcha was once a commander of Shule under Lai Yao. Now he is appointed as the governor of the four towns of Anxi. It is fine if Li Jian, who was not convinced by the airborne Li Jian, but he is not afraid of fighting with his old boss's son, but he cannot appease the hearts of the generals. When Lai Yao was in charge of the Western Regions, he was good at fighting and was clearly rewarded and punished. Although it seemed that he was not as good as Gai Jiayun's military achievements, he was more popular than Gai Jiayun. Therefore, when he heard that Li Jian was promoted to the judge of the Jiedu after Lai Zhen's first military achievements, he immediately shone his anger and sent all his anger on the generals under his command.
Except for bravery and courage, most of the Hu people's foreign generals have such a tendency to be inexpensive. Only a few are as smart as An Lushan. Therefore, most of the generals of Anxi have been used to it, and many people have even developed the ability to spit on their faces. Especially after Lai Yao's death, after the Gai Jiayun, Tian Renwan's two military governors failed to make any progress. Gao Xianzhi, who was only appointed as a military envoy under the command of Hu Meng Lingcha, was only thought that he was particularly proud in front of the military governor of the Four Towns, but he did not know how many times he had been criticized by Hu Meng Lingcha. This time, like others, he was scolded by Hu Meng Lingcha and left the ritual hall, but he was still calm and composed.
When he came around, he said in a deep voice: "Let's go and see Du Sima."
"General, the general is now angry. Are we too blatant to visit Du Sima?"
"At worst, I'll be scolded to be so terrified, I've been used to it anyway."
Du Anzhi is now appointed as the Sima of the Protectorate of Anxi, and this is promoted by the former governor Tian Renwan. Tian Renwan is a typical civil servant, so he has a good impression of Du Anzhi, who was born in the Ming Dynasty, and even uses him as the secretary. However, the husband Meng Lingcha is a typical Hu general, so he naturally does not catch a cold of Du Anzhi. Especially Meng Lingcha is now angry with Lai Zhen as the judge of Beiting Jiedu. He only thinks that this is clearly that Du Shiyi, the governor of Shuofang, helped Li Jian, and even killed Du Anzhi to vent his anger. If Du Anzhi had not told him about illness at home, he would have been the first to swear at Du Anzhi in the hall before.
In a blink of an eye, Du Anzhi was already thirty-eight years old. Although his career has not been smooth for many years, he was not very satisfied with many Du clans who could only revolve around in idle positions. He had already had one son and two daughters under his knees and was interested in teaching young girls to read on the couch. When his wife Yuan came in, he lifted up.
"Twenty-one Lang, General Gao Xianzhi is here."
"Okay, please hurry up"
As soon as Gao Xianzhi entered the study, he found that Du Anzhi looked very good and clearly had no illness at all. He couldn't help but point at someone and scolded, "Okay, you guy, it's okay if you don't go to the festival hall to be scolded, but you still hide at home to enjoy the happiness. Are you not afraid that the coach will be angry and kill you to cause trouble for you?"
"I, Sima of the Anxi Protectorate, is just a leisurely role and does not need to be advised on major matters. If he really does do something extreme because Li Dashuai, the governor of Beiting, used Lai Zhen, and did something extreme, wouldn't he be afraid of being in vain? So, if I can't hide, he can only curse behind his back for a while. Besides, I will be in full force by the end of the year. Even if I am a nail, can't he bear it for two months?"
Hearing Du Anzhi say this, he remembered that the other party had repeatedly recommended him in front of Tian Renwan. However, Tian Renwan, a typical scholar, attached too much importance to the difference between Hu and Han, and was always rejected by him, a foreign general who was born in Goryeo, and Gao Xianzhi couldn't help but sigh. He only knew that Du Anzhi was a child of the Du family of Jingzhao and a cousin of Du Shiyi, the governor of Shuofang. He had a wealthy family and was generous. He did not have the pride and sorrow of ordinary scholars. He was generous and generous in dealing with people. Therefore, when the other party took the initiative to make friends with him, he gradually became familiar with others after a while.
At this moment, after he sat down, he asked thoughtfully: "Where are you going to this Renman? I remember that you have been in Anxi for almost seven or eight years, right?"
Gao Xianzhi asked, and when he saw Du Anzhi looking at him with a smile, he suddenly shuddered and exclaimed in dismay: "You can't have run to Beiting to help that Dashang Li, right?"
"That's right." Du Anzhi calculated by counting his fingers and served Lai Yao, Gai Jiayun, Tian Renwan, and Meng Lingcha, the four governors. Each of the generals had a regular attitude towards him, one good, one bad, one good, and one bad, and he was already numb. Li Jian had been a deputy to Du Shiyi for six or seven years. He was old and stronger, and was upright. When he left the town, he was employed by a consul Du Shiyi, who was proficient in the situation in the Western Regions, and he was a win-win situation.
"It's over." Gao Xianzhi patted his forehead and said with a bitter face, "I originally wanted to visit you, but at worst I could be scolded by the Grandmaster. Who knew that you would go to the enemy when you leave office in the future? If the Grandmaster knew, he would definitely take me to vent his anger again. Why didn't you tell me earlier? At least I'm not so nervous to visit you?"
"No matter how much he scolds, the Grand Marshal has a more violent temper than Gai Jiayun back then, but at least he does not doubt the use of people. Apart from me, the more people he values, the more people he scolds, you dare to say you don't know?" Seeing Gao Xianzhi smiled, Du Anzhi took a box on the desk and pushed it towards Gao Xianzhi.
"This is……"
"I'm leaving, it's easy to take it, but it's a pity to sell these lands at a low price. This is the land deed of two thousand acres of good pastures near Kucha Town. There are many cattle, sheep and horses, and people are ready-made. If I don't sell them, I don't know who will fall into my hands after leaving, so I might as well entrust it to you."
Du Anzhi was not as rich as Anxi's generals. Gao Xianzhi and his son were both in the Western Regions, and their wealth was not as good as that. He always knew this. Now Du Anzhi left such a gift before leaving. Even though Gao Xianzhi was not short of money, he couldn't help but feel a little moved. But before he could refuse, Du Anzhi lowered his voice.
"There is news in the court. Your Majesty may send eunuchs to the Western Regions as the supervisor. These guys are all greedy. If you don't fill people, you don't know what kind of disaster will happen. Let's have a conversation. For the sake of your condemnation by the commander for my affairs, don't be polite to me."
Hearing this, Yu Nu was stunned at first, and the sound of his steps gradually faded away. After a while, she stuck her head out again and found that there was indeed no one in the room. She pinched her palms with her fingernails. Feeling the sharp pain, she became happy instead.
Yes, everything is true, not dreaming, she finally returns to freedom
When Mo Ye was brought out by Du Shiyi today, he discovered that among the people who followed were Huya, who was not often used, and Azle and other some of the most agile and brave Hu Er. Therefore, when Du Shiyi called her into the house to serve the people inside to wash, she was still a little confused. However, at this moment, she served the other party to change out of the man's clothes, wash away the ink on her face, and remove the disguise. After looking at the beautiful face that was not used to make makeup but still makes people unable to take their eyes off, she was amazed even as a woman, but then she became shocked.
The four young men and girls who Luo Ying personally sent to him were already married, but Yu broke up the ancient famous swords with Mo Ye, and Mo Ye married Longquan. In the Shuofang Jiedu Mansion for many years, they were loyal to Du Shiyi and Wang Rong, the male and female hostess of Du Shiyi, and Du Shiyi did treat them like their own children. Not only did they send someone to teach them to read and write, but they also taught classics and historical allusions. So at this moment, when Mo Ye was combing the hair bun for this unknown young woman, he had an uncontrollable idea.
Could it be that his own handsome man took advantage of his wife's absence and hid a charm in the golden house?
If Du Shiyi knew that the little maid inside had even thought of the allusion like Jinwu Zangjiao, it would have been funny that there were too many things he taught them at the beginning.
This hostel seems to have nothing to do with him, but it is an industry established by Huya. From the inside to the outside, he is all his own people. After leaving the house, he stood in the yard and asked Chibi about the matter in Chang'an City. When he learned that although Li Shizhi was a prime minister, Li Linfu was still very popular. He knew that the left prime minister, who was also from the royal family and had rich and brilliant official qualifications, might not be able to compete with Li Linfu, the right prime minister. Thinking of the rich struggle experience that Li Linfu has accumulated over the years, Li Shizhi's resignation may have entered the countdown. After pondering for a moment, he asked a low voice.
"Does the gunpowder transported back to Chang'an City from Shuofang still hide secrets?"
"Yongjiafang is adjacent to Xingqing Palace. The owner of my residence can be considered half a royal relative. How could anyone know about it when digging a cellar below? As for the orphans the man asked me to find, I have taught them one by one according to the words of my wife. From what they can remember, I have instilled loyalty and obedience, so I have changed all the servants of the Dou family without any trace. The grandson of Dou Xi Ij was not good at making a fortune, and the old servants drove them away one by one, and most of the new servants were not very happy to follow him. All my people were left by his side, even his concubines."
The climate in Chang'an is dry, and Du Shiyi specifically reminded Chibi of various precautions such as moisture prevention, so he is quite sure whether these gunpowders can be preserved for a long enough time. He didn't have to transport everything back so early, and there might be a chance in the future, but now that Yu Nu is in Shuofang, everything in the future has deviated from the established track, and he no longer has so many foresights.
"That's good. Next, just wait for the corresponding opportunity."
Du Shiyi was just talking about this, and a babbling sound came from behind. When he looked back, he saw Mo Xie's complex expression first, and then he gave it to the side. The graceful young woman behind him stepped over the threshold and left the house. Yu Nu, who was in her twenties, was the most beautiful age. Although she had pretended to be sick before, she was blowing and sun and raining along the way, and there was a layer of oil on her skin, so that she didn't look so fair now, but her mood changed her complexion did not make her look a little depressed than before, and she looked refreshed. She had been bed-bed and pretending to be sick, and she had dissipated after many days of travel, but she had lost a little weight.
If someone who has only met her once or twice, he will definitely not recognize that this is the Taizhen lady who is known for her plumpness and beauty, and the former Princess Yang, the Shou Princess.
Seeing that Du Shiyi and Chibi were both staring at him in a daze, Yu Nu was not as embarrassed as an unmarried girl, but she still called out: "Master"
"My family has grown up. I'm stunned for so many years." Du Shiyi laughed as if she hadn't seen you, then turned around and walked forward. Seeing her stalking like a laced swallow, she hugged her neck without thinking, and then cried. He couldn't help but pat her on her back, "Okay, everything is over. From now on, there will be no more Princess Shou, no more Taizhen Lady, only the reborn Jade Slave of Nirvana. Although you can't do whatever you want, it's better than being in Chang'an."
Chibi followed Du Shiyi for nearly thirty years, and he could be regarded as watching Yu Nu grow up from a girl like a pink ball, so he felt that he was normal after listening to these words. Mo Ye was different. What does Princess Shou mean, what does Taizhen mean? She was also in the Shuofang Jiedu Mansion, how could she not know? She was dumbfounded and stared at Yu Nu who was lying on Du Shiyi's shoulder and burst into tears. She finally understood what this meant. After taking a breath, she suddenly walked out quickly.
How can others let others know such extraordinary news?
As soon as she left the yard, she saw Huya coming and going. In the past, she respected the uncle who was the most in charge of the fangs, but now she hurriedly reached out and stopped him: "Uncle Huya, the general is discussing secrets with others. If there is nothing urgent to do, can you wait?"
"Confidential? Everyone has arrived in Shuofang, what secrets are there?" Huya was stunned when she heard this. Seeing Mo Xie's expression like a ghost, he immediately understood and immediately smiled and patted the little girl's shoulder. "It turns out that you want to hide it for the Grand Marshal. Don't worry. Those who can be brought here today will always take care of that lady here in the future. When I stayed in Chang'an with the Lord of the Lord, she was not uncommon. When the former Lord of the Times rushed back to Zhongnan Mountain for thousands of miles to persuade her, I was also following. The matter of that lady is over in Chang'an, Chang'an is over. Next is the beginning and end of our Shuofang. You may have to come and go."
Mo Xie then understood why Du Shiyi did not avoid her, but she had to come often. So she felt relieved and apologized repeatedly. After letting Huya in, she couldn't help but start thinking. However, although she had learned a lot in recent years, she still had no ability to deduce such a big thing. If her husband Longquan was here, she might have seen some clues.
"Forget it, I don't want to have so much, just do it meticulously according to the instructions... The man is really a person who values love and righteousness. He is absolutely difficult to succeed in such a great risk, and he dares to take action."
In the yard, Du Shiyi finally made Yu Nu laugh. After Hu Ya came in, he could not help explaining to him that every guard here was dispatched by Hu Ya. If there was anything wrong in the future, Hu Ya and Mo Ye would come. Yu Nu nodded with peace of mind. However, when Du Shiyi sent her back to the room, she saw that he turned around and was about to leave, and suddenly she couldn't help but grab his sleeve.
"Master..." Seeing that Du Shiyi had indeed stopped, Yu Nu took a deep breath and then said, "At present, the word "Xie" is too light and vulgar, but whether it is the master's wife, master and aunt, they all take risks for me. I really don't know how to repay you."
"Silly girl." Du Shiyi smiled and shook her head, stretched out her hand and touched the Yu Nu's head as she did back then, and then said softly, "One day, one day, and a father for life. Since you call me a master, how can I see you in the fire pit? From now on, as long as you live every day happily, you will be the best reward to us. It's getting late, I'll see you again in two days, so you can rest."
Seeing Du Shiyi withdraw his hand, nodded and smiled and left the house. Yu Nu finally felt a little tired. She pretended to be sick, pretended to die, left the palace, and rushed thousands of miles away... It was all the obsession and perseverance in her heart that made her persist until now, and now this spirit has finally relaxed. From now on, she is no longer the Yang family daughter who brought pride to the Yang family, but then panicked the Yang family, and finally made the Yang family reach a new peak, but was just a woman who was looking for ordinary life, and could live her life in a plain and happy manner according to her wishes.
Chibi summoned the confidants on this trip and prepared to return to Chang'an as soon as possible. Du Shiyi also hurriedly left with Huya and Mo Ye and other servants. When he returned to the Lingwu Hall of the Shuofang Jiedu Mansion, he learned from Longquan that Du Anzhi's letter had been delivered. When he opened it, he saw Du Anzhi explaining Gao Xianzhi's reaction and pointed out that Meng Lingcha was furious at Lai Zhen's thunder in Beiting. After he smiled, he threw the letter on his desk.
