The scorching sun was shining high, baking the earth calmly, and sweat was the most intuitive response from the people of Kaifeng. Next to the post road in the south of the city, there is a row of teahouses, guesthouses, and post stations. When it is the main road leading to Kaifeng City, the traffic is very high, people come and go, and it is a busy scene.

The cover of the outer branch was constantly swaying in the summer wind, and the large ink characters were a bit dazzling. The neat tea house was filled with pedestrians taking a rest, drinking herbal tea and chatting about everything.

Recently, what has been most frequently publicized inside and outside Tokyo is the success of the Jinghu strategy. The soldiers fought bravely, the king's army won a complete victory, and the rebels surrendered.

At the crossing, there was a team of chariots and horses. Qin Zaixiong was dressed in military uniform and was sitting on a tall horse. Behind them were several Yao generals and several fully loaded carriages, which contained the property rewarded by the emperor and the materials and local products they purchased in Tokyo.

"Clan Chief Qin, are you leaving like this?" A short and stocky barbarian general asked Qin Zaixiong with a look of displeasure on his face.

"Why, you can't bear to leave?" Qin Zaixiong glanced at him.

He nodded repeatedly and responded with emotion: "How can I give up such a fairyland-like city!"

"I think you guys are reluctant to part with these more than twenty days of extravagant enjoyment!" Qin Zaixiong scolded.

"We don't need to spend any money! The houses, food, women, and clothes in Kaifeng are really fascinating!" Another barbarian muttered.

"Why do you think the emperor treats us so favorably and allows us to enjoy such prosperity for nothing?" Hearing this, Qin Zaixiong groaned and said: "These all require our service and meritorious service in exchange!"

As he spoke, he pointed at a few people and lectured: "Look at you, you have just been here in the north and you are all fat! Let me tell you, the prosperity of Kaifeng is indeed fascinating, but we don't have enough opportunities to make contributions here.

The big cities in Hunan should be our goal. This time when we return to Chenzhou, the emperor has given us the opportunity to make meritorious deeds. We must seize it, cooperate with the officials in governance, restrain the people, and do not cause trouble to the government.

At that time, not only you, but also your descendants will enjoy the blessings of the imperial court! "

After hearing what he said, one of them said with doubts on his face: "Do we really want to hand over all our people?"

"I know what you are worried about!" Qin Zaixiong pretended to stroke his beard and said: "I have thought about this matter repeatedly and have made it very clear. Although it is handed over, the court still wants us to help maintain its rule. Yes, we can also become generals, but we just change it to the court system and pay taxes to the government!

Even though the tribesmen have been handed over, can they still deny us? Don't you want to go to the city, live in a big house, wear silks, and drink fine wine? Do you still want to continue living among Cave Creek? "

"In addition, people like Fu Yantong still don't know the power of heaven, how wise the emperor is, and how powerful the imperial court is. They still want to maintain their rule over the various tribes without making any changes as before.

But we are different. I was interviewed by the Emperor and received the Emperor's promise. As long as we return to Chenzhou and spread this kind of news, we will be the envoys of the imperial court and our momentum will surely increase.

If we make more contributions and rely on the imperial court, our family can be passed down from generation to generation. In the past, we only had some influence in Chenzhou. From now on, we will not be without a place in the entire Five States tribes, and even in Hunan.

Now we are the closest to the imperial court. If we don't seize the opportunity and actively contribute to our work, will we still give the opportunity to others? "

Qin Zaixiong's words made several barbarian chiefs stunned for a while. Although it was difficult to fully understand the twists and turns, they understood one thing. Following the imperial court would bring great benefits... ..

All of them aroused some inexplicable yearning. One of them looked at Qin Zaixiong cheerfully and said: "Clan Chief Qin, you have always been smart and knowledgeable, we all listen to you!"

These barbarian generals were not all Qin Zaixiong's tribes and subordinates. His tribe's strength could not arm three thousand warriors. These people, Zhou Xingfeng came from the Miao and Yao barbarians in the five states, and Qin Zaixiong only convinced them with his bravery and strategy, so he led them.

However, after arriving in Tokyo, Qin Zaixiong relied on these people to become his capital that was valued by the emperor and the court.

Listening to his statement at this time, Qin Zaixiong showed a satisfied expression and said: "I am now holding the position of the envoy of Chen and Qi. You need to call me the envoy from now on! When the Pingqian Army is established, you will have to change the name to our army. make!"

"I've met Qin Envoy!" Someone immediately called out cleverly and saluted decently.

"You are also generals of the imperial court!" Qin Zaixiong reminded again: "In the future, you need to learn Chinese characters and practice more Chinese!"

After saying this, the stocky barbarian general shook his head: "Chinese characters are difficult to learn. I have given up hope. When I return home, let my boy learn it!"

After hearing what he said, Qin Zaixiong said: "The emperor also said that we Yao people can also study and take the imperial examination. Let your son study hard and become a Jinshi in the future!"

"Haha! Okay!" His dark eyes lit up, looking serious.

"You've seen enough!" After looking around, after saying so much, and seeing a group of people still looking at Kaifeng Xiongcheng behind, Qin Zaixiong couldn't help but said: "Enough has been seen, it's time for us to set off!"

After saying this, without waiting for his consent, Qin Zaixiong lightly kicked the horse's belly and took the lead. Several barbarian generals looked at Kaifeng with nostalgia and set off southward reluctantly.

Under the bright sun, a group of Chu barbarians, after being baptized by the capital of the Han Dynasty, embarked on a journey back home full of expectations for the future. The trip to Tokyo really opened their eyes to other people. At least they no longer want to live the hard life of living in the mountains and forests. If people have the desire for change, they will have enough motivation. What Liu Chengyou and the court need to do is to use their desire and opportunities to achieve the effect of public security on the barbarians in the five states of Hunan.

...

In the Chongzheng Side Hall, Zhao Pu slowly walked in and sat down at his desk. Zhang Jie saw him on the side and quickly prepared a cup of tea and flattered him personally.

"Thank you for your hard work, bachelor!" Zhang Jie smiled and said to Zhao Pu.

He took the tea cup and took a sip to quench his thirst. He raised his eyes and looked at Tanhua Lang: "I am serving the king's orders and I am loyal to you. Why should I say it's bitter?"

Zhao Pu's consciousness is so high, and it has always been this way before and after others.

"The bachelor is loyal to the emperor and the country, and the subordinate officials respect him!" Zhang Jie said.

Hearing the compliment, Zhao Pu glanced at Zhang Ji. This young man was indeed a good-looking man. The time of contact was not short. From the bottom of my heart, Zhao Pu didn't like this person very much and had a disgusting personality.

However, Zhao Pu never showed that the emperor liked and valued him, and because he took him with him, he did his best to provide advice in official duties and did not show any favoritism.

"What's the urgent matter in Huainan?" Zhao Pu asked.

"The Huaidong Inspector reported that Zheng Renjie was seriously ill and could hardly be a director. Please make arrangements as soon as possible!"

"The Chief Secretary of Huaidong reported that the Hongze Lake project is progressing smoothly and is expected to be completed this winter! Wang Pu also requested to officially open the Guishan Canal to avoid the dangers of Baili Huaihe River!"

After thinking for a while, Zhao Pu asked: "Are you going to repay your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty hasn't returned to the palace yet!" Zhang Ji shook his head.

"What's the initial plan at the Zhengshi Hall?" Zhao Pu asked again.

Zhang Jie took out the two memorials and handed them to Zhao Pu: "As the Huaidong Inspector, Prime Minister Li proposed to appoint Xu Taifu, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, as the Huaidong Inspector. As for the Guishan Canal, it will be reviewed after Hongze is completed. !”

"Leave it alone! When His Majesty returns, I will report it myself!" Zhao Pu said calmly.

"yes!"
