Yuzhong City.
"Although a city was burned down, when I think back to Bai Yan, the defender of Gaonu City, with more than 10,000 cavalry, he dared to fight against an army of 150,000 people. His courage has to be admired!"
"Haven't you heard? Even though Bai Yan is a descendant of the noble clan, not only the Bai family, but more importantly, Bai Yan was born first!"
"Hi~! Climb first? No wonder! Speaking of which, if Bai Yan hadn't been stationed at Gaonu this time, how many people would have died in the county!"
On the street, people were walking together in groups. Even though it had been nearly ten days, what the people were talking about at this moment was still about Bai Yan.
Don't blame these people. After all, for the people of Shangjun who survived the disaster, this incident is enough to remember them for a lifetime. Even when they are old, they can still talk about this disaster when they mention the Yuezhi and the Xiongnu in the north.
They, the people of Yuzhong City, are fine.
At this moment, the people in the villages and small towns in Shangjun but far away were no less grateful to Bai Yan than the people in Gaonu City.
In the hearts of those people, they did not dare to blame the county governor Yang Xian, but it did not prevent them from knowing clearly that the person who saved them was Gaonucheng, Bai Yan!
Outside a government office.
Two carriages, followed by maids and servants, slowly stopped in front of the door. Then a young man opened the curtain and slowly stepped out of the carriage.
If Bai Yan or Lu Qi were here, they would definitely be surprised as to why Lu Sheng came to Shangjun.
"Sir, please inform the chief official, Gan Si, that Lu Sheng is here to visit!"
Lu Sheng said to a Qin official with his hands raised.
The Qin official glanced at Lu Sheng and saw that Lu Sheng was well-dressed and that he belonged to a wealthy family. He did not dare to offend him, so he nodded quickly, turned around and walked towards the government office.
Lu Sheng stood outside the government office and waited for a while. He soon saw Gan Si's figure and hurriedly walked out.
"You are finally here!"
Gan Si was very happy to see Lu Sheng.
"Is it convenient to go to the teahouse?"
Lu Sheng glanced around him out of the corner of his eye, and then said to Gan Si.
"Walk!"
Gan Si said to Lu Sheng without any hesitation, making a gesture of invitation.
Lu Sheng also quickly made an invitation gesture, signaling Gan Si to follow him into the carriage.
It won't take a while.
The carriage soon arrived at a teahouse, and Lu Sheng asked the carriage behind him where to settle down.
Gan Si stood there and watched the carriage leave.
"Inside the carriage, is that woman named Master Xu?"
Gan Si asked softly.
Lu Sheng nodded.
"After receiving your letter that day, I immediately made arrangements to take Master Xu north."
Lu Sheng said to Gan Si, and then motioned for Gan Si to go in and speak.
Gan Si nodded, feeling relieved.
When he learned that Bai Yan, the defender of Gaonu City, had led more than 10,000 cavalry to repel the 150,000 troops of Yueshi and Xiongnu, he wrote a letter overnight and asked someone to send it to Lu Mansion in Xianyang and give it to Lu Sheng. .
Bai Yan not only repelled the Yuezhi and the Xiongnu in this battle, but also really scared him.
He never thought that Bai Yan was so fierce and good at fighting!
He knew that after Bai Yan's battle, the general was already confirmed.
Therefore, he wrote a letter overnight and asked Lu Sheng to bring his daughter Xu Shi to Shangjun. No matter what, he wanted to meet Bai Yan.
He needed to get to know Bai Yan, not to mention Lu Sheng.
This is a general with a rank at a young age, far beyond comparison with others.
Right now, the top priority for them is to find a way to contact the person who introduced Bai Yan to Lu Qi before.
Inside the teahouse.
The two of them came to the wooden table and sat down facing each other.
At this time, Gan Si told Lu Sheng everything he knew.
During the whole process, Lu Sheng listened carefully and nodded repeatedly.
"Do you think I should go directly to Gao Nu to look for you, or do you?"
Lu Sheng looked at Gan Si and asked anxiously.
At the moment, he is not familiar with Shangjun, so he has to rely on Gan Si.
This time, he went through all the trouble to come to Shangjun. No matter what, he had to get to know Bai Yan before Lu Qi could react.
"Gan Si thinks that now we should arrange for my servants and maids to follow Master Xu and go to Gaonu to look for him. We are in Yuzhong."
Gan Si pondered for a moment and said to Lu Sheng. Then he looked around with vigilant eyes. After making sure that no one was there, he moved forward.
"The governor of the county, Yang Xian, has been transferred back to Xianyang!"
Gan Si said softly.
Although many people knew about this matter, no one dared to say it directly. The county captain and the censor ordered not to say it out without permission.
"I didn't expect Xianyang to be so fast!"
Lu Sheng was a little surprised when he got the news.
"It was Yang Xian who resigned from office and left! He didn't let Xianyang speak. After all, if Xianyang was really allowed to give the order, it would be really shameless."
Gan Si shook his head: "Besides, don't worry about this matter. Yang Xian's actions not only gave up the truth, but also lost the support of the people. But now the people of Shangjun are fine, and only thousands of cavalry were killed in the battle. After three to five years, Xianyang will Yang Xian will continue to be an official."
Gan Si looked at Lu Sheng. He had been familiar with the affairs between officials since he was a child.
"Yang Xian is a veteran of four dynasties, and the Yang family is a famous family. There is also General Yang in the court!"
Gan Si said.
Lu Sheng looked at Gan Si and frowned slightly.
"After this incident, can Yang Xian be reused again?"
Lu Sheng was a little confused. There weren't many people around him who were officials. He relied more on his father's connections for business matters, so he didn't know much about these things.
"The county governor definitely won't! It's hard to say anything else. At least it's a false position!"
Gan Si looked at Lu Sheng's appearance, laughed, and whispered, while pouring tea for Lu Sheng.
"Now after the destruction of Korea, officials were mobilized from all over to go to Yingchuan County. I did the same, so I had the opportunity to come to Yuzhong. Although Yang Xian made mistakes, others can't compare to him in terms of experience."
After Gan Si poured the tea, he didn't dwell on the matter anymore.
Yang Xian has left and has little relationship with them now. He will not have the opportunity to become an important minister of the county like the county governor in the future.
"In a few days, the new county guard will arrive in Yuzhong. There will naturally be a banquet then. Bai Yan, who is the guard of Gaonu City, will definitely come to Yuzhong."
After Gan Si finished speaking, he took the tea cup, took a sip, and then put down the wooden cup: "It will depend on your Lu family's connections then!"
"Okay! Let's arrange it like this!"
Lu Sheng nodded after listening to Gan Si's suggestion.
Here in Shangjun, the Lu family still has his uncle's lineage, and they have been doing business in Gaonu all year round.
We have just found out that the city of Gaonu was burned down and that my uncle's family is still in the city and has not returned to Gaonu.
"Where in Xianyang, is there any news blocked so that Lu Qi won't know about it?"
Gan Si thought of something and looked at Lu Sheng.
According to Bai Yan's previous actions of helping Lu Qi, the relationship between Bai Yan and Lu Qi is probably very good.
If Lu Qi comes to Gaonu, it is likely that everything they have will be in vain.
Gan Si didn't want to make a mistake at this time.
After all, Bai Yan was too important to him when he came to Shangjun.
Gan Si has already found out that Hu Jin, the lieutenant of Shangjun, has a close relationship with the Bai family. He and Bai Yu are close friends of life and death, and he takes good care of Bai Yan, just like a descendant of his clan.
At first, it was only Hu Jin who trusted Bai Yan and ordered more troops at major passes.
This was also the only person who was not affected at all by the Huns' march southward.
Therefore, regardless of Bai Yan's position and ability, he, Gansi, needed Bai Yan if he wanted to get close to General Hu Jin, who held a whole county of troops.
"The news about Lu Qi cannot be blocked. Once my father finds out, he will definitely inform Lu Qi in a letter."
When Lu Sheng heard Gan Si's words, he frowned and felt helpless. There was nothing he could do about the clan's rules.
Moreover, in the eyes of his father, the relationship between Lu Qi and Bai Yan was very close to the clan members. When Bai Yan made great achievements again, Lu Qi was more reliable than him, Lu Sheng.
"So if you think about it, we only have a few days."
Gan Si frowned.
Zhao State.
In a house in Bairen.
"Teacher, I am going to Shangjun in Qin State. It is a difficult journey. I am worried about this."
A man in his thirties held up his hand to an old man wearing shabby clothes and with messy hair, as if he wanted to keep him.
But the old man shook his head gently.
"I must go on this trip!"
The old man said, looking at the sky in the direction of Qin.
Bai Yan! !
The name murmured in my mind.
The old man knew that he had to confirm a guess in his heart. If he had not found it strange when South Korea was destroyed before.
Thinking of what happened in Shangjun and thinking of Bai Yan, he wanted to let the people leave even at the risk of losing his official position.
In his memory, there was once a young man named Yan who helped him pick up wine bottles, and he was also so kind!
This old man is Bai Yan's biggest key to dealing with Li Mu.
Taigong's Six Taoist Secrets have been unearthed and are rare military books.
Inside the tomb, the bamboo slips seemed to have been written in the period from King Wuling of Zhao to the end of Qin.
