296. Chapter 296 Breaking through Songjiazhuang


Chapter 296 Attacking Songjiazhuang

Capital City, Imperial Palace.

There was no morning session today, so Xu Zhenguan took the rare opportunity to lie down in bed. When he woke up from his bedroom, it was already bright.

While having breakfast, the empress clearly felt the strong autumn mood, and even the imperial garden looked a little withered.

"call--"

The wind blew, and a scarlet maple leaf fell down in the garden. It was caught by the white and slender Empress Catkin. She closed her fingers and slowly held it in her palm.

"The maple leaves are so red. I remember that the maple trees are the most on the Taicang side of Linfeng. In late autumn, the scenery is the best. If you want to enjoy the chrysanthemums, you have to go further south, to the border of the Huai River. Well, I don't know where that is. How are the preparations for the opening of the market now?”

Xu Zhenguan said softly, even though the sun was already rising, the warmth of summer was gone.

Behind the empress, Mochou, dressed as a neutral female official, had just arrived. Hearing this, he said:

"The Governor of Water Transport is watching over there. Your Majesty, you have discussed it with the princess. I think that if the princess returns to the Huaihe River and reports to the prince, it may not sway her inclination."

During Dayu's new policy, the location for the "market opening" was chosen in Linfeng, on the edge of the Huaihe River.

Linfeng Road is close to the capital, and the court has stronger control.

The Huai River has a strong business culture and is the center of the river. The choice of this site was the result of careful consideration.

Xu Zhenguan was not optimistic and just sighed:
"It is beyond the reach of the whip, it is beyond the reach of the whip... Taizu once said in the daily life record that the power of the emperor is actually very small. Even if the cultivation level is tyrannical, the power of the emperor is still only within the tenth circle around him. If you go within a step, if you go out, you have to rely on others to do anything..."

As she spoke, she shook her head and took the initiative to change the topic:

"Jun Ling returns from this trip, and now I'm afraid he will be delayed in Taicang with Zhao Duan."

What you want to say is basically this topic... Mochou whispered in her heart and said helplessly: "Looking at the days, Master Zhao and the others should indeed arrive."

She did not go into depth on the subject of the princess.

The officials in Taicang did not know that Xu Junling joined the imperial envoy team midway, but the shadow guards attached to the envoy had already passed back the information.

Well...it was information sent back by Zhao Duan on his own initiative.

However, although this was a good way to attack his love rival, Mochou understood that as a minister, it was a taboo to make irresponsible remarks about the royal family.

In his words, he deliberately mentioned only Zhao Duan.

"Taicang... I always feel that this matter is not trivial. Zhao Qing is crossing the river alone, and is afraid that he will be targeted by Gao Lian and other local officials, but I don't know how he is progressing." Xu Zhenguan looked worried.

Mochou pinched her nose and said:
"With Mr. Zhao's cleverness, I think it will only take a few days before he can return to the capital in triumph."

"I hope so."

The corners of Xu Zhenguan's mouth slowly raised, and he turned to glance at her:
"What can I report if you come here?"

Mochou took out two envelopes from her sleeves and handed them over:

"The secret report sent by the shadow guard is about Mr. Zhengyang. It is said that Prince Mu personally visited the mountain a few days ago and had a long talk with Mr. Zhengyang.

After leaving, according to reports from Mr. Zhengyang's disciples, he seemed to have the intention of leaving Yunfu. There were even rumors that he seemed to have the idea of ​​coming to Beijing to give lectures, but I don't know whether it was true or not. "

Going to Beijing to give lectures?

Xu Zhenguan frowned slowly but did not express his opinion: "Where is the other letter?"

Mochou said: "The other thing is that the current female head of the Xiao family in East Lake is working quietly. She is very interested in the opening of the New Deal. She may join the game, or she will come to Beijing in the near future. "

That widow of the Xiao family?

Xu Zhenguan was very interested, thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "You can spread the news. I'm curious, Uncle Wang of Huai'an, if you are in a hurry after learning about it."

"Yes." Mochou accepted the order and prepared to retreat.

"By the way," the empress added softly: "The Shadow Guards are asked to investigate the recent movements of the Dharma God Sect and other forces in the world. If there is any abnormal movement, it is best to teach Zhao Duan to be prepared. "

Mochou was startled: "Your Majesty is worried..."

Xu Zhenguan waved her white gauze-like sleeves gently, and the maple leaves in the whole garden rippled like a sea of ​​fire: "Be careful and you won't make a big mistake. Zhuang Xiaocheng is not a person who is willing to admit defeat."

"The number one hermit in Dayu?"

Inside Songjiazhuang. Zhao Duan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly remembered that when he first entered the Xiuwen Hall, Mo Chou personally sent him there.

On the way, the female prime minister once mentioned that Xiuwen Guan wanted to hire a powerful person, but failed.

At that time, Da Bingtuozi had no explanation, but now that he thinks about it, it must be Mr. Zhengyang.

"I've heard about it, but he shouldn't be a figure in the officialdom." He asked curiously.

Xu Junling had an expression that said "You don't know things too" and said with a smile:

"They say he is a hermit, so naturally he is not in the officialdom.

This person has a great reputation in the literary world... Well, it makes sense for you not to be involved in the literary world.

In short, Mr. Zhengyang is a great talent. He has been guarding tombs in Yunfu Dao Mountain and interpreting the classics of saints for thirty years. His analysis of the principles of saints is unparalleled in the world. Grand Master Dong even feels inferior to him. He even took the imperial examination. All answers must quote his annotations.

Therefore, although they do not go down the mountain, there is an endless stream of scholars who go to the mountain to study.

Since this Song Juren called himself a disciple, he had a mentor among the literati. In addition, he had the title of Juren, so it was not surprising that he could support this small family in the local area. "

Learned...

Therefore, he was the big V and opinion leader of the Yu Dynasty... Zhao Duan nodded.

Xu Junling said with a smile: "You are afraid that you will make this Zhengyang disciple unhappy by knocking on the door like this. Aren't you afraid that he will not cooperate?"

Zhao Duan grinned:
"If he dares not give me what I want, I'll beat him until I give it to him."

At this time, a large group of people swarmed out of Zhuangzi in front, acting as guards to protect Zhuangzi.

They were all big-shouldered and round-waisted, holding swords in their hands and with murderous intent on their faces.

As if the princess was right, Songjiazhuang really has a group of warriors as bodyguards.

The leader of the group was unexpectedly "thin" in stature. He was a middle-aged man wearing only a blue shirt.

There is a sword hanging on his waist, but his eyebrows are thick and black. As he walks, he has an invisible momentum, which is guided by the energy of his body.

"Hey, there are still 'masters'." Zhao Duan said with a smile.

"Thank you Master...Master...for saving me..."

On the ground, with one foot planted in the mud by a man, a strong young man had his head turned sideways, unable to move.

Eyes filled with tears could not see clearly.

But when he heard the noise, he summoned up the courage to shout for help.

"Xiao Wu!"

The middle-aged coach, who had some reputation in the world, had a dark expression and his eyes were filled with fire.

But after catching a glimpse of this group of people, his warrior instinct made him vaguely aware of the crisis.

But thinking about the many good players behind him, Coach Xie felt a little more at ease.

With a wave of his hand, everyone stopped, but the sound of drawing knives could be heard continuously.

"Young Master, do you dare to ask me your name? Why did you force your way into my Song Family Village? Beat me, the son-in-law of the village?"

Coach Xie had no expression on his face, holding the hilt of his sword with one hand, staring at Zhao Duan, and asked coldly.

For a moment, the situation was tense.

It seems that if there is a disagreement, a group of people will attack.

Zhao Duan turned a deaf ear and was too lazy to answer.

He just glanced at the dozens of angry faces in front of him.

He yawned slightly, glanced at the princess guard beside him with displeasure, and said calmly:

"What are you still doing standing around? Why don't you wait for me to do it myself?"

Lu Qingfeng, the man with the sword, and the heroine with the sword were slightly stunned.

Then, the latter two laughed ferociously at the same time and flew out.
