The blind date at a young age is full of enthusiasm, and the pursuit of love amidst the dangers of thousands of miles.
I have no pity for tearing my temples under the window, but I can't forget the laughter and hatred on the battlefield.
Jiang Xingze is not only my brother, but also my arm.
Since I am in charge of the Jiang family, every major and important matter must be decided by him, and I will obey his words.
And he has never let me down. After decades of development and growth, the Jiang family has grown from a second-rate family entrenched in Taihao City to a super powerful family that is at the peak of the Central Plains and has influence all over Quzhou. He deserves half of the credit for this. .
Today, I am not handing over the power to Jiang Xingze out of impulse.
What can make me do this is the trust and understanding between brothers.
At this moment, there was silence in the lobby where Jiang Xingze was, and everyone was waiting for Jiang Xingze's arrangements.
I gently patted Jiang Xingze's back with my hand, indicating that he could start. Jiang Xingze didn't look back but immediately understood what I meant. He coughed slightly and said, "Xie Wei, who is engaged in engineering, and Changjiang Jie, the animal husbandry guard of Quzhou, listen to the order."
Xie Wei, who has always been smart and alert, and Jiang Jie, a martial artist in the Broken City realm, lined up at the same time, one on the left and the other on the right.
Jiang Xingze's words were categorical and unquestionable, "I ordered you and me to lead a hundred people to make a detour to Handan County and send an envoy to Linzi County to persuade the Duan clan to form an alliance with me, and ask them to hook up with the local noble families, build ships, train soldiers, and agree on a time to attack the Zhao thieves. , Cooperate with my army to attack Zhao Yuhai's retreat. During this period, Huanyue Mansion will fully support you and others. If anything is not decided, you can ask Xi Guinian."
After Xie Wei and Jiang Jie heard Jiang Xingze's order, they secretly squinted at me.
I didn't hesitate at all, my face suddenly turned cold, "His words are my words, do you need me to repeat them a second time?"
The two of them did not dare to delay and immediately took the order and retreated.
Jiang Xingze still didn't look back at me. He continued, "Jiang Cai took the order."
Jiang Cai, who I had appointed as the governor of Fanggu County, took a step forward.
"I order you to go to Taihao Academy to select the best candidates to serve as civil servants for the county governor's office, and immediately set off to the front lines of Yuyang and Sangqian to set up Liangyi, take care of government affairs, boost morale, win over the hearts of the two counties, and vigorously strengthen the cause. "
Jiang Cai said solemnly, "Take it, take the order."
I saw that Jiang Cai was a little submissive when he took orders, and I thought to myself: Jiang Cai is originally a literary person. It is okay to ask him to write edicts and govern the place. If he is asked to go to the front line to settle the people in person, he may be really good at it for a while. Somewhat timid.
I cast my eyes on Jiang Xingze's back again, and saw that my brother's fists were clenched, and the sweat from enduring the pain had soaked through his entire back. The large robe covered his body, so The desire is hidden.
A nameless anger burned from my heart like a prairie fire.
Putting aside the brotherhood, who is Jiang Xingze? His surname is not Jiang, he is an outsider, a romantic celebrity who could have lived a leisurely life in Dezhao County or enjoyed his life in the world of martial arts. However, he devoted his whole life to the eternal foundation of the Jiang family and turned into a withered person who has exhausted all his energy. Man, what is he for? I don’t believe it, he is just for the position of prime minister!
An outsider can risk his own life for the prosperity of the Jiang family. As a member of the Jiang family, how dare you, Jiang Cai, be afraid of you?
Thinking of this, I was like a tiger whose tail had been stepped on. I immediately pounced on Jiang Cai and knocked him over with one kick. I shouted, "Jiang Cai, I am a hero from three generations of the Jiang family, and there are countless good men. If you are afraid of death and cherish your life, you are afraid of death." The sword avoids the sword, and it misses the Jiang family's important events, so that it develops into a traitor, so it is better to replace him."
The more I talked, the angrier I became. I simply waved my hand and said, "Come here, prepare an edict immediately to remove Jiang Cai from his official position. Pull him down!"
All the ministers in the hall looked at each other, and no one dared to persuade him.
Before the armored guards could approach, Jiang hurriedly stood up, cupped his hands and said to me, "Master Zhou Mu, please rest assured that you should die in the water, not on the shore. I am willing to guarantee with my life that I will live up to the trust of Mr. Jiang."
I returned to Jiang Xingze's side and whispered, "Okay!"
After Jiang Cai returned to his position, Jiang Xingze coughed violently a few times and then said, "Don't drive to Quzhou to Jiang Yixing, engage in wine sacrifices and Chen Cheng takes orders."
When I heard these two names, my fingers moved slightly.
Jiang Yixing is the biological brother of Jiang Yilan who died in the Fulingshan battle.
To the literati in the physical realm. Chen Cheng is also my Pythagorean minister. I leave the daily affairs of Taihao City to the two of them. If these two people are transferred, Taihao City, a ten-mile city with hundreds of thousands of people, will , the internal affairs really give me a headache.
However, the current situation has become extremely unfavorable to our Jiang family. If the Fanggu Zhao family cannot be eradicated in time, if one day the Pingtian army becomes larger, they will unite with the Zhao family and the eight old Quzhou families in the south to surround our Jiang family. , I’m afraid, my Jiang family will be chewed to pieces.
When life and death are at stake, such trivial matters as today you lose your dog, tomorrow I lose my pig, and the day after tomorrow my mother dies, are not that important!
After the two of them came out of the queue, Jiang Xingze said slowly, "You two will go to Dezhao County with the imperial edict of the state. Chen Cheng will temporarily serve as the county guard. He and my brother Jiang Xingyao will also be responsible for recruiting troops, raising food, and building equipment. If there are any opponents, shoot them without mercy. Jiang Yilan, you are well versed in the government affairs of Taihao City. The stability of Taihao City cannot be separated from you. You are going to Dezhao County. You need to stay in day and night to conquer Yunzhong and Tianyuan counties. The four thousand elites were secretly transferred back and then returned, and the four thousand people were secretly distributed and brought back to Taihao City, where they were properly placed and used for other purposes."
The two of them were ordered to retreat, and Jiang Xingze suddenly said, "Farewell Jiang, when you withdraw, remember to leave the camp behind, and leave a hundred or ten veterans to live and cook every day to confuse the Zhao thieves."
I nodded and sighed in my heart: My brother’s thoughts are full of secrets and there is no oversight!
"Xiahou Liufeng and Jiang Xu take orders."
After the two of them got out of the queue, Jiang Xingze couldn't even breathe and vomited a mouthful of blood.
This frightened me. I quickly used my thoughts and massaged him repeatedly. Jiang Xingze also used his thoughts and forcibly sat up.
I stared at his pale face and quickly comforted him, "Brother, how about we take a break before we talk? Take a break!"
"It doesn't matter! I spit out blood and feel better!"
Jiang Xingze smiled heartily, and then said, "I order you two to gather knights from the Jianghu, find the place where Zhao Yuhai accumulates grain, find out the trajectory of grain transportation, and then hide your identity in Yongnu and Zhending, give the order, and burn it immediately To carry grain and baggage, we hunt and kill the officers and soldiers transporting grain."
Xiahou Liufeng and Jiang Xu took orders and retreated.
"The soldiers are engaged in Jiang Ping." Perhaps because he was too weak and eager to get things done, Jiang Xingze said urgently before Jiang Ping came out, "I order you to secretly build hundreds of stone carts and distribute them within the walls of the frontline barracks. When the opportunity comes, When you arrive, attack immediately. Remember, this is a top-secret matter and must not be leaked."
After saying this, Jiang Xingze immediately continued, "Xiahou Liuhuo and Muwei Chief Xunmi, from now on, you two will command all the remaining herders in Taihao City. You two will lead the army and camp five miles outside the city. Quan is here to stay and be on guard against any unusual movements in Huaxing County. In addition, my guardsmen guarding the city have become tired in recent days. You two must practice every day and use thunderous means when necessary."
Xiahou Liufeng looked at me, I nodded slightly, and the two of them followed the order and retreated.
I know what Xia Hou Liuhuo is thinking. If all the herdsmen in the city leave the city, the city will be empty of defenses and will inevitably be caught off guard in case of trouble.
Xiahou Liufeng can think of this, I can think of it, and my brother can naturally think of it, so I still choose to support it!
"Shepherd and guard Chang Jiang Chen, who is engaged in offering wine to Aoxing, you two immediately go to Yanmen County in the northernmost part of Dezhao. Yanmen Armed Forces General Qian Cheng has been bribed by me. He promised to divide three thousand troops and hand them over to me. You two go Get troops to defend Taihao City."
I took a deep look at Jiang Xingze. When it comes to planning a great cause, my brother is too strong on me!
With a "wow" sound, Jiang Xingze finally couldn't hold on any longer, spat out a large mouthful of blood, and passed out again.
I quickly waved my hand to ward off all the civil and military personnel, and asked the medical officer to stir up the medicine mist again, and I hid out of the house.
After leaving the house, I saw a group of civil and military officials still gathering, presumably waiting for me.
Although the Jiang family is only one clan, the forest has grown and there are many birds. A few years ago, I, Quzhou Mu, was just an empty shell. Some people were still loyal to my father Jiang Cang. They were quite disapproving of my dominance. In order to I really spent a lot of effort integrating my forces, but I also missed the best opportunity to dominate Quzhou.
Why! Every family has a hard time singing, but today, this matter is no longer mentioned!
When I saw this situation after I left the house, I was not ambiguous, so I stepped forward and said, "Chu Rushui will stay during the treatment. The rest, those who have been arranged by Governor Jiang, will go to prepare. Those who have not been arranged will still stay at their posts and do their best!" Everyone, since Pangu created the heavens, the Three Emperors established the country, and the Five Emperors opened the frontiers, all the achievements have been achieved through hard work. Now, we have reached the critical moment of victory or defeat. I leave the future of the Jiang family to you!"
After everyone accepted the order and left in unison, I walked in front, Chu Rushui behind, and walked slowly towards Taihao Palace.
Zhizhong Chu Rushui was a good friend of Jiang Xingze and I when we traveled to Liuzhou. When he was investigating Xiaolian, he had a low status and a poor family, so no one recommended him, so he was named Luosunshan.
He was in distress. Seeing that he was thoughtful in his work, the two of us persuaded him to follow us back to Taihao City. After I succeeded to the position of Quzhou Pastor, Chu Rushui became the person in charge of the clerical files and affairs in the government. In Zhizhong, among the officials present just now, he is the only one who is not as important as Qian Shi, but is extremely important.
"Brother Chu, you and I have known each other for nearly twenty years, and now we are very old!" I sighed, and then said, "After the emperor wanted to cut off the family, Brother Jiang made three plans for me. I choose In order to find a way to capture the king of Quzhou, now it seems that I don’t know whether it is right or wrong!”
Chu Rushui replied, "In terms of the justice of the world and the morality of a gentleman, it is absolutely inappropriate for the following to be committed. Moreover, all the gains of today's family are rewarded by the Heavenly Family. It is normal for people to want to go back now. But having said that, A scholar dies for a confidant. If Brother Jiang hadn't met me once and thought that I was quite good-looking and gave me a place to establish myself, I'm afraid I would be a failed scholar now. Since I can't serve the Han Dynasty in this life, I should risk my life to repay my confidant and give me a good life. Let Qianqiu admire the name of justice!"
I nodded, "Please come here!"
After an explanation, Chu Rushui took the order and left.
I stood alone on the ninth floor of Taihao Palace, looking into the distance.
If you take on the difficult things and add them to it, you will always live in a stable place, put the world in a safe place, and place great achievements on the solid momentum, then you will have no worries.
Nowadays, the moral integrity is declining, justice is gradually replacing, and power has long trumped justice. The Jiang family has long been in a dangerous place, and they must fight to the death to find a way out.
Let me, the Jiang family, be a watchdog like the eight great families in Quzhou, or be like Fan Tingnan and Gongsun Qiaomu by sacrificing our troops and land. Haha, I'm sorry, I can't do it!
Liu Yan, although I have wanted to be the King of Quzhou for a long time, today you forced me to rebel. No one else can blame me!
When all nine counties of Quzhou are in my hands, Jiang Feng, and I ask you for the king of Quzhou, don't be stingy! snort!
