"Actually, there is nothing unspeakable."
After a glass of wine, Hu Erzhuo's face turned rosy: "There has been something unexpected in the clan recently. In the next few days, we may have to ask Mr. Ruan to help us contact the big buyer of cattle and sheep."
Ruan Ming was slightly surprised: "What? These more than 6,000 cattle and sheep are not enough? Do you still want to sell them? What will you do with your grazing in the coming year?"
Hu Erzhuo said: "Master Ruan doesn't know something. Our tribe has been forced to move to the Es Mountain area. If we keep so many cattle and sheep for pasture, it won't be enough. It's better to sell them early in exchange for some food."
Ruan Mingdao: "Why is this? The place where you lived before was rich in pasture."
Before Huerzhuo could speak, Kezhen, who had had a few glasses of wine, said gloomily: "Why else? Isn't it just because the leader said something that the Chanyu didn't like to hear, so he targeted our tribe!"
"Oh?" Ruan Ming leaned forward slightly: "As far as I know, Mount Es is not a good place. Once there, let alone herding, there will be many difficulties in life."
The more Kezhen thought about it, the angrier he became. He put down his wine glass and said in a louder voice: "Who says it's not the case! Shanyu Shanyu's treatment is unfair! It's completely deliberately targeting our Rouran tribe! Why do we need our original grazing land? Give it to someone else!”
"Ke Zhen! You're drunk!" Hu Erzhuo glared at him first, then smiled apologetically at Ruan Ming and said, "Sir Ruan, please forgive me, Ke Zhen's nonsense, I hope it didn't disturb your joy of drinking."
The latter was reprimanded and did not dare to talk back. He poured himself another glass of wine and drank it down in one gulp.
"Where is it?" Ruan Mingze laughed, knowing that it would be inconvenient to ask more questions, so he changed the subject, but he looked at Ruan Yang.
During this banquet, Ke Zhen complained a lot. Hu Erzhuo had been asking Ruan Ming for help in business. Ruan Ming wanted Beidi's war horse to achieve political achievements, so the two sides went along with the flow and the conversation was quite pleasant.
After waiting for it to end, Hu Erzhuo and his wife left, while Ruan Ming and his son returned to the study.
Ruan Yang said straight to the point: "Father, Kezhen has an upright temperament, and his words at the banquet are not a joke. From this, Beidi is not stable internally. At least, there will often be some conflicts between their various tribes."
Ruan Ming was noncommittal: "As my father was an official in Mocheng, I knew a lot about these nomadic peoples in the Mobei grasslands. Sometimes, they would fight for a good grazing land, but they have been suppressed by Shane on the surface these years." That’s all.”
"Father is right." Ruan Yang said: "But this time the situation is different. According to Kezhen's statement, the Rouran tribe is now greatly marginalized."
"Oh? Do you have any ideas?" Ruan Ming's heart moved.
Ruan Yang said: "Perhaps we can submit a letter on this matter and report to His Majesty in detail. It would also be a good idea to divide the various forces in Beidi."
Ruan Ming pondered for a moment: "But Beidi has already surrendered, and His Majesty has just recovered southern Xinjiang. I'm afraid he won't use troops easily in recent years."
"Perhaps, as far as the northern border is concerned, His Majesty will not easily mobilize troops, but he must have preparations, or strategic plans, for Beidi." Ruan Yang said.
Hearing this, Ruan Ming's eyes twitched: "Yang'er, how can you understand His Majesty's thoughts so well?"
Ruan Yang said confidently: "I dare not say that I can guess the holy will, but I think that with your majesty's talent and strategy, you will never allow the potential threat of Beidi to continue to exist."
"What En said makes sense, makes sense." Ruan Ming nodded slowly, and then said: "Well, as you said, I will prepare a memorial for my father to explain this matter to His Majesty."
He did what he said, and immediately sat down behind the case, ready to write.
"Father, wait a minute." Ruan Yang said, "We still need to further verify and implement this matter to avoid misrepresenting the military situation."
Ruan Ming paused with his ink-stained brush: "It's better that Yang'er has thought carefully."
After thinking for a while, he said, "I don't think it's better than this. You will write this memorial to provide advice to His Majesty."
Ruan Yang smiled bitterly and said: "Father is joking, but he has forgotten that at the level of a child, he is not qualified to present it to His Majesty."
"Ah, my father is confused." Ruan Mingqian smiled: "Then my father will mention your name more in this memorial, so that you can show your face in front of His Majesty and lay the foundation for your future. "
"Thank you, father." Ruan Yang saluted seriously.
In the next few days, on the one hand, Ruan Ming and Hu Erzhuo made insinuations from time to time, and on the other hand, Ruan Yang secretly investigated the authenticity of the matter.
Combined with Ke Zhen's various actions, the matter was quickly determined. Rou Ran was indeed hit by Shane. At the same time, the reason for the matter was also revealed by Ruan Ming.
Knowing the cause and effect, his relationship with Hu Erzhuo unknowingly became closer.
A few days later, Chang'an.
Palace study.
At present, Xiao Yuan's main energy is still dealing with all aspects of Nanzhou affairs.
The candidates for the six county governors have been determined, and they were all personally approved by him. Four of them were promoted from local county magistrates, and the other two were former leaders of the southern Xinjiang tribes.
These people's official uniforms, official seals and letters of appointment have been issued and are on their way to take office.
At the moment, Ye Cheng is reporting something: "According to His Majesty's instructions, the establishment of the Wuwei Mansion in each county in Nanzhou will be in full compliance with national standards, but on personnel issues."
Xiao Yuan understood what he meant, kept the brush in his hand, and finished reviewing a memorial. While closing it, he said: "Send some new officers and soldiers from the country, and the other half will be recruited from Nanzhou. As for the selection of county captains and county captains, , everything is in accordance with the standards, and I will sort out the opinions of the General Office of the Armed Forces, the Ministry of Personnel, and Nanzhou later, and I will personally review it."
"Yes, Wei Chen will take care of it immediately." Ye Cheng respectfully accepted the order.
After he left, the doctor ordered Guan Chao to enter and respectfully handed over an official document with both hands: "Your Majesty, this is the latest list of the imperial troops on duty."
"Leave it here." Xiao Yuan did not raise his head, but at this time he saw Ruan Ming standing up.
"No." Guan Chao respectfully put the list on the side of the table, bent down and stood respectfully.
Ruan Ming's memorial was written with the help of Ruan Yang and was very well written. Xiao Yuan couldn't help but let out a sigh as he looked at it.
Then I thought about it for a while and gave the instructions: I have read the report, and the policy you proposed is very much in my heart, so I can continue to follow up on this matter.
After reviewing it, he closed it and put it aside. He picked up the list handed over by Guan Chao. After reading it carefully, he marked out some names with a red pen.
These people all applied to join the Forbidden Army. Many of them were martyrs, and they even included the sons of some ministers and officials.
Because many ministers believe that staying in the Guards for two years is equivalent to gilding, and your resume will be more beautiful after you come out.
