In Zhongjing City, the governor of Li County's request for the position of governor of Hanzhou was criticized as useless at the court meeting in Changle Palace a few days ago. Unexpectedly, just a few days later, the situation at the court meeting changed drastically.
Except for the courtiers from Guangjun who were still firmly opposed, the number of ministers who were really opposed was actually reduced by more than half. In contrast, there were actually a few powerful counties such as Jincheng County of Wuzhou in the northwest standing behind them. The courtiers stood directly on the side of Lijun, and one by one they told about the loyal martyrs of Lijun who had guarded the border for Dading for hundreds of years, how the former prefect Luo Tianen was poisoned by the monsters and died for the country, and how the contemporary young prefect Luo Tianen died for the country. How Chuan You inherited his father's legacy and repeatedly took the lead in bloody battles with monsters and barbarians made him burst into tears and made the atmosphere in the temple sad.
So, perhaps following the good example, the young emperor drafted an edict on the spot and appointed the prefect of Lijun as the governor of Hanzhou!
As soon as this news came out, it immediately spread to all directions at an unimaginable speed. Everyone in the court halls of the counties and the sects on the mountain were shocked by it. Think about what happened in the short two years after Lu Zuxian passed away. Everything, I just feel that there are dark clouds rolling in between the sky and the earth, and the signs of great changes have been clearly revealed.
Of all the people who learned the news the fastest, Yun Bailou, who is now in Liucheng, is naturally one of them.
Just north of Liucheng, on the Han River, Yun Bailou stood on the highest deck of the flagship warship. He threw the letter in his hand into the air, not caring about it scattering into pieces in the sky, and just turned his head to look to the southwest. , the autumn wind blew by, swaying the willow trees on the Liucheng embankment, and the golden slender leaves swirled and fell in the river.
"Let Old General Lin be more careful on the west route. Sichuan City and Zhengcang are fine. Don't let your guard down on the Roucheng direction," Yun Bailou said softly.
The brown-robed woman standing next to him nodded when she heard this, and then suddenly shook her head for some unknown reason. She took a careful look at Yun Bailou's side face and asked,
"The envoy sent by Luochuan has not yet arrived in Guangjun, but it is not far away. Young master thinks that after he gets the post of governor of Hanzhou, he will find an excuse to attack Guangjun?" Yun Bailou did not give an answer. It’s just that his eyes looking into the distance are a little deep,
"Luochuan is a person who doesn't like to play his cards according to common sense. For example, this time, I suspect that he had already made plans to ask for the governor of Hanzhou before arriving in Xingcheng. Otherwise, how could he let the edict-proclaiming team go? Arriving at Taiming City in a big way? Even... maybe he contacted someone in Zhongjing City for this purpose, such as the old ghost from the Zhong family in Jingdong County." The brown-robed woman was shocked when she heard this and lowered her head After turning his head, the expression in the hood changed several times in an instant.
"There is something wrong with the situation in southern Xinjiang now. The pressure on the Yuanhe front line in Anyang County is unexpectedly high. The situation in the south of Li County and Yongchang County is also strangely calm. I have a feeling that Nanyi is under pressure. There may be some big move, and their target is probably not Anyang," Yun Bailou frowned slightly,
"It should be that he is still in Lijun, or Yongchang, or both. This time, he shouldn't be able to pass so easily." The brown-robed woman couldn't keep up with Yun Bailou's thoughts, so she didn't say anything more. What.
Yun Bailou suddenly turned to her, stretched out his hand to lift the hood on her head, and frowned slightly when he saw her deliberately gentle smile,
"Is it difficult to suppress it?" The brown-robed woman hesitated for a moment, then nodded lightly. Yun Bailou looked at the brown-robed woman with some pity.
"Many times, people understand many truths, but they just can't do it after all." He walked to the railing and looked at the river rolling eastward, speechless for a long time.
The woman in brown robe looked at Yun Bailou's back for a long time, then came to his side with timid little steps, looked up at his side face again, and then asked,
"Luochuan has won the position of governor of Hanzhou. In addition to asking General Lin to be careful, what other preparations do we need to make?" Yun Bailou had already relaxed his brows at this time and became the same person again whenever you see him. They all feel like they can lift all their burdens,
"Let the people in Yicheng keep an eye on Meng Jiaoyang more closely. This time Qingjun, Guangjun and Yongchang County jointly put pressure on Lijun. In the end, it was Meng Jiaoyang who was the first to miss the news, and This person succeeds more than he fails. You can see that he hastily changed generals on the two battlefields after getting some advantages. He cannot be allowed to do anything outrageous again, otherwise if he really gives If there is any chance for Luochuan, the situation we have painstakingly created may become troublesome." The brown-robed woman nodded in response,
"Southern Xinjiang?"
"Of course I can't relax, especially in the south of Li County. Let me keep an eye on Su Jin'er's line in Li City. It's just small movements. I can't miss any big movements." Yun Bailou's eyes showed a ruthless look. ,
"At all costs!" The brown-robed woman was startled again. She glanced at Yun Bailou, who was obviously a little different today, and said yes.
Yun Bailou didn't look back at the brown-robed woman and asked again,
"I heard that Yan Zhuo was training that naval force in Chu City?" the woman in brown robe asked,
"Yan Zhuo was in Chucheng a few months ago."
"Anyang County, now even the prefect Yan Siyu has personally gone to Yuanbei City to supervise the war. Among the young masters with a little bit of ability, they have the courage to go to the front lines of Longwei City and even Shuanglong City to fight for opportunities. He is the only one who was brought up by Wei Changhe. My child, what are you doing hiding in Chu City in the north? Do you want to wait for Nanyi to attack the northern part of Anyang County, and then take those dozen broken boats to the Baihe River to save An City?" Yun Bailou's face showed a look of confusion. The smile is a little cold,
"Find a reliable person to go to Chucheng and keep an eye on him. If you get a chance, kill him for me." The brown-robed woman looked at Yun Bailou again and said,
"Yan Zhuo... is one of Yan Siyu's most beloved sons."
"So what?" Yun Bailou smiled brightly and spoke solemnly,
"It's better for me to kill him now than to have him bring people from Lijun to kill me one day." Only then did the brown-robed woman understand the meaning of Yun Bailou's previous words and nodded solemnly.
On the other side, Yun Bailou spoke again,
"Let Xingwu return to Xingcheng. Be careful and insert a few people around Xingcheng General Song Ningshan." The brown-robed woman did not ask why this time, but quickly asked,
"How close do you want to insert it?" Yun Bailou said calmly,
"It's best to get close enough to chop off Song Ningshan's head and replace it," he chuckled as if he was amused by his own joke.
"Let Nothingness take care of it. I need someone who can know which woman Song Ningshan sleeps on every night." The brown-robed woman nodded.
"Except for those on the periphery, please withdraw the few people at the core of Dan Port," Yun Bailou said.
"Yu Wei won't kill him?" the brown-robed woman asked in surprise.
"If you want to kill too many people, you won't be able to kill them," Yun Bailou chuckled.
"I guess the people from Jiangzhou are about to come over. Since they haven't been killed before, it doesn't make much sense to kill them now. They will lose manpower in vain, not to mention that the most important thing at the moment is to see Jiangzhou's attitude, if they insist on intervening, things will still be a bit troublesome." The brown-robed woman lowered her head again, her face looking ferocious for a moment.
Then she felt Yun Bailou's hand put heavily on her shoulder. She looked up and saw Yun Bailou's smiling and gentle eyes looking at her and said,
"Don't be afraid." In an instant, late autumn was no longer there, just like the warm sunshine of summer. Filled her heart.
