People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 528

Outside Lanxi County, the official ship slowly went away, and Xu Wenchang, the magistrate of Lanxi County, breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the King of Nanchang did not make any guarantees, Xu Wen's credit has been clearly reported, and it should not be difficult to pay off with credit.

Turning around, Xu Wen cupped his hands to Zhuge Yun and said, "This time, Sun Bei will be sent to the north, and the King of Nanchang will take care of him. There will be hope next year."

"The honor of the county is too high, Minghui is young, this time is just a tour." Zhuge Yun replied with a wry smile.

Although Zhuge Minghui had some talents, compared to those who came from aristocratic families, he was not a little bit inferior.

"In fact, not necessarily. Talents belong to talents, and scientific examinations belong to scientific examinations. There is still a big difference." Xu Wen looked proud, but then he laughed at himself and said: "There are many seniors around King Nanchang. There is no need for me to say more here... Your Majesty still has a lot of arrangements, Chief Weng, this county will leave first!"

Xu Wen and Zhuge Yun bid farewell, and then quickly returned to the county office.

Although the King of Nanchang only stayed in Lanxi for half a day, he made more arrangements.

Xu Wen didn't dare to delay at all.

……

The official boat was slowly going up the river, Li Xuan looked at Zhuge Minghui who was sitting on the side studying official documents, and asked casually: "Minghui, Zhuge's family is in court now, are there any elders?"

Zhuge Minghui hesitated for a moment, and said with some uncertainty: "When the first emperor, there was an uncle Zhihong Wenguan in Nanyangfang. After his death, no one from Zhuge's family worked in the center, but many of them worked in the states. If you join the army, your blood is remote."

"Zhihong Wenguan?" Li Xuan looked at Yu Ze in surprise. After thinking for a while, Yu Ze said, "It should be Zhuge Zhen, a direct scholar of Hongwenguan. He was a straight bachelor, but passed away within a few years."

"It's good to have a relationship." Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and a series of operation methods flashed in his mind.

As long as he operates properly, although Zhuge Minghui's talent is not so extraordinary, he still has a chance to be a Jinshi.

Zhuge Minghui on the side listened in a daze, not knowing how much this uncle, who had died of illness many years ago, had anything to do with him.

Li Xuan looked up at Yu Ze, and asked in a low voice, "Qiu Beishen is still following Master Shiyin?"

"En!" Yu Ze nodded, and said, "Now, everyone has noticed that something is wrong. Zhonglang has been missing for such a long time. Kuaiji Mansion and Huangshan Mansion, as well as Shezhou and Muzhou have sent people to search for two people in the mountains. Back and forth, but there is still no trace, it can’t be said that there are some smart people who have cleaned up all the traces in advance, deliberately preventing people from being found.”

"Inner Guard!" Li Xuan couldn't help sneering, and then said full of doubts: "What are they doing?"

"There is no news about Qiu Changshi in Shezhou, which means that he has not returned to Shezhou. He is the governor of Shezhou. Unless the second sage has ordered him to do other confidential tasks, the only possibility now is that he has already passed away. We are on our way back to Shendu." Yu Ze suddenly looked up at Li Xuan, and said with a look of astonishment, "He got something very important in his hand."

Yu Ze didn't know about the news of Qiu Shenji's death, and even almost everyone didn't know about it.

Yu Ze's words are very reasonable. If Qiu Shenji is still alive, then there is only one reason why he has not shown himself.

That is, he has obtained a very valuable item, and secretly returned to the capital of God.

This may be what Ming Chongyan wants others to think about. If the person who killed Qiu Shenji suspects that Qiu Shenji is not dead, then he will naturally be suspicious and frightened to investigate, and even send another killer.

If someone said that Qiu Shenji was dead and did nothing, it would naturally arouse Ming Chongyan's suspicion.

Li Xuan felt a little strange, Qiu Shenji died in the hands of the empress, why is he conducting an internal investigation now.

Gently knocking on the table, Li Xuan said in a deep voice: "If that's the case, General Zhong Lang is probably very close to God now. We are not suitable for getting too involved in this matter, just keep it at any time."

"My lord, but you have to be careful that Zhonglang will turn black and white on the sage and the queen, and you should go to Shezhou and Yuezhou to make Captain Xue and Duan Duan be careful." Yu Ze suggested in a low voice.

Li Xuan frowned slightly, in this matter, he had to be careful, because his opponent was no longer Qiu Shenji, but Ming Chongyan.

If you do too much, it will easily arouse the resentment of Tianhou, and if you do nothing, it will easily arouse Ming Chongyan's suspicion.

So it must be done, but it must be reasonable, and Ming Chongyan should not be given a chance to make use of the problem.

"Forget it in Shezhou. Before Zhonglang Jiang disappeared, Captain Xue and him wrote a memorial book together and sent it to the governor of Shezhou King. Everything is enough. No matter how many mistakes you make, as for Duan Dudu." Li Xuan bowed her head and pondered for a moment, and finally said: "Write a letter to Duan Duan, asking him to speak kindly to Qiu Beishen, and I will also revise the memorial I wrote earlier."

"My lord wants to push Qiu Bei up." Yu Ze immediately understood what Li Xuan was thinking, it was indeed a clever move.

"Let the Qiu family deal with the matter of the Qiu family, so that everything can be explained." Li Xuan's expression was very calm.

In this way, it is most in line with Li Xuan, the wise county king's approach.

The technique is like hanging an antelope's horns, unconstrained and extremely effective.

Ming Chongyan wanted to find the murderer who killed Qiu Shenji, so he might have to think elsewhere.

It's just that Li Xuan couldn't figure out what went wrong.

Su Lianyu has now detoured to Huguang and returned to Chang'an from Shu. With the abilities of Neiwei and Baiqisi, it is not difficult to find out that they are close.

Taking advantage of the trend to play tricks on Su Lianyu's head, why did he focus on other places.

Can't figure it out, Li Xuan quickly put the thought behind him, the less he pays attention to this matter, the better for him, what he really has to deal with now is the changing situation in Wuzhou.

Qin Ming was transferred to be the governor of Muzhou, and Wang Fanglin was transferred away again.

Inspector, Sima, Changshi, the three posts are vacant, and it is not known who the center will transfer to handle Wuzhou's government affairs.

But thinking about it carefully, Li Xuan's time in Wuzhou will not be much longer.

After a short rest in Wuzhou, they have to return to Chang'an to get married, and after a few months after marriage, they should be transferred back to the center to work in Honglu Temple.

After the matter in Wuzhou is properly handled, it will be Chang'an.

Changan.

……

At the Nancheng Wharf in Wuzhou, a huge official ship is docked at the wharf.

The planks of the boat were lowered, Li Xuan quickly stepped off the boat, Yu Ze, Wang Bo, Du Bixing, Xu Jian, Qi Guang and others followed closely behind.

Seeing Wang Fanglin, Zhang Yi, Han Jiang, Wang Qin and others who were waiting on the pier, Li Xuan had an inexplicably friendly feeling, and he took the lead in saluting to Wang Fanglin: "I have seen the envoy!"

"The lord has worked hard. This time, we have pacified Muzhou. Our officers and soldiers in Wuzhou have made many contributions. Even the state has been praised by the central government... But the state has to thank the lord and everyone!" Wang Fanglin said with a smile. Follow Li Xuan to return the gift.

"Don't dare dare!" Li Xuan hurriedly stepped aside, and then greeted Zhang Yi, Han Jiang, Wang Qin and other officials, as well as Shen Tuo, Yang Yan and Qian Zhe, the patriarchs of several major families in Wuzhou. After that, he said: "Everyone, let's talk about it when we go back to Yamen."

"Reverend Shiyin and Daoyin?" Wang Fanglin looked at Li Xuan in surprise.

Li Xuan glanced back at the deck, shook her head slightly, and said, "The two gentlemen are inconvenient for the time being, I'd better go back to the state office first, Zhang Canjun, please handle the follow-up on the ship, be more careful."

Zhang Yi frowned, and immediately bowed his hands in awe and said, "Your official takes orders."

"Hmm!" Seeing that there was no movement on the ship behind, Li Xuan approached Wang Fanglin in a low voice and said, "Uncle, please ask someone to clean up my nephew's official quarters. The queen's body needs to be placed in the official quarters." , mobilize the guards."

"Uncle Shi understands." Wang Fanglin immediately understood the meaning of Li Xuan's words.

Li Xuan's eyes fell on Qian Zhe who was on the side. Although Qian Zhe acted the same, his eyes often fell on the black coffin in the back boat.

The relationship between the Qian family and the Chen family is known to many of Wuyue's sixteen families.

Now that Chen Shuozhen has been wiped out, the last hidden danger of the Qian family is gone.

But unfortunately, there is still King Yue.

……

In the backyard of the state government, Wang Fanglin held a banquet to honor Li Xuan, Du Bixing and other heroes who had returned from Muzhou.

When the wine was half full, Wang Fanglin waved to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan was a little surprised, but she still sat down in front of everyone, holding a wine glass.

Wang Fanglin looked at dozens of Wuzhou bureaucrats in the entire backyard, and more than a dozen patriarchs and sons of aristocratic families, and whispered to Li Xuan: "Not long ago, news came from the Ministry of Officials that His Majesty appointed Qin Sima to serve in Muzhou. The governor, Du Canjun was reinstated as Sima of Wuzhou, Han Jiang was appointed another, the post of Hucao was taken by Ning Yi, the magistrate of Jinhua County, Xu Jian became a regular soldier, Cangcao joined the army Li Yuanyi was transferred to Yuezhou Bingcao, Yuezhou Bingcao joined the army Li Yuanyi Ji, transferred to Muzhou Facao to join the army..."

Scattered, Wang Fanglin told Li Xuan about the transfer of the next Wuzhou officials.

Li Xuan nodded with a serious expression. Wang Fanglin served as the governor of Wuzhou. His subordinates Sima, Facao, Cangcao, and Gongcao were all his people. transferred away.

"Then what about Uncle Shi?" Li Xuan's face was solemn, Wang Fanglin had said so much, Li Xuan had already vaguely guessed something.

"Uncle Shi doesn't move, he is still the governor of Wuzhou." Wang Fanglin looked at the wine glass in front of him, and said softly: "My nephew will be transferred in a few months, if Uncle Shi is also transferred, then the governor, Sima, and Chang Shi will all be transferred away." He is a newcomer, which is not conducive to the stability of Wuzhou."

Although Du Bixing has been inspecting Wuzhou Sima for more than a few months, in the eyes of the officials, he is still a proper Wuzhou newcomer.

"It doesn't matter if you don't transfer, it won't be easy for people to find opportunities. If you really want to transfer to the Western Regions, once a war starts, although it is easy to make meritorious service, it is also easy to be taken advantage of by others." Li Xuan's voice was very low, and only Wang Fanglin could hear it. see.

Wang Fanglin nodded, his expression was a little emotional, he had already planned to die in the Western Regions, but he didn't expect to be left in Wuzhou.

"Your Majesty's consideration is probably due to Muzhou's reasons. Brother Qin is the governor of Muzhou for the first time, and all aspects of Muzhou are not appropriate. I am afraid that Wuzhou needs more support. Uncle Shi can get the news in advance, and I am afraid that His Majesty intends to condone."

"En!" Wang Fanglin nodded slightly, he also expected this.

In a blink of an eye, Wang Fanglin looked at Li Xuan, and asked with a smile: "My nephew's wedding is approaching, when will I leave for Chang'an?"
