Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 76

[Chapter 76]

“Zhang Kang is really an old fox.”

Chang Wei kicked the truck in front of him.

“But it’s not all fruitless, at least more than 3,000 horses, so many irons and armor weapons have been captured.” Zhao Xu said with a smile: “The most important thing is that although there is no evidence yet, at least one thing can be confirmed. family, the Yuan family and Beidi have trouble in the world.”

This time Tsui Hark followed a middle-aged man who came out of the Zhang family.

Follow quietly from Yancheng to Qingfengkou, and then follow from Qingfengkou to the north, almost entering the grassland.

He didn’t return until he was picked up by a group of Beidi cavalry.

“Bastard, Beidi people slaughtered my Dasong people. Not only did the Zhang family and Yuan family not have any hatred for the enemy, but they sold iron and other things to Beidi. Isn’t it an act of capitalizing on the enemy, and now the general wants to chop them into meat.” Chang Wei gritted his teeth.

“Don’t worry, there will be such a day. Now that we have some clues, we can investigate this matter secretly. If we hold the handle, Zhang Kang will definitely die.” Zhao Xu clenched his fists.

Yanzhou is such an important strategic location, it is simply absurd that a Yanzhou state shepherd and a Yanjun sheriff should secretly communicate with foreign enemies.

From now on, he not only has to guard against the Zhang family, but also the Yuan family.

After all, Yuan Li is a man who must repay him. He lost so many things, so it’s no wonder he didn’t jump his feet.

And this Yuan Li’s nephew is the sixth prince, and the sixth prince’s bullying to Zhao Xu can be said to be the worst in memory.

He believed that after knowing that he had gained a firm foothold in Yan County, he must be more anxious than Yuan Li.

“Your Highness, although we haven’t got any evidence, it’s a great achievement to wipe out the bandits who trade with Beidi. The officials thought that this should be an excuse to ask for credit for His Highness in front of the Emperor.” Liu Fu who was beside him suddenly heard something.

As soon as he finished speaking, suddenly a member of the royal family rushed over.

“Your Highness, the capital is here.” The servant spoke very quickly.

“The capital? Who’s here?” Zhao Xu, Liu Fu, and Chang Wei looked at each other.

“A eunuch said he brought an imperial decree.”

“I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse?” Liu Fu frowned.

Zhao Xu smiled, Zhao Heng had already tactfully revealed his thoughts in Mi Guiren’s letter last time.

He believed that Zhao Heng’s attitude would not change drastically in such a short period of time.

“You’ll know when you get back.”

Zhao Xu turned and walked out.

Seeing the iron in the car, he ordered Chang Wei to send these to the Military Division for smelting.

The captured war horses were carefully fed, and those with horse riding talents were selected from the army to form cavalry.

All the way to the palace.

Zhao Xu saw three horses parked at the gate of the palace from a distance.

These horses have the same pattern on their saddles.

Obviously, these are the stage horses in the station.

In modern times, the communication of information is very convenient.

But it was very troublesome in ancient times.

Therefore, in order to allow the emergency orders of the imperial court to reach the place as quickly as possible, all dynasties have set up a post system.

Simply put, it is equivalent to the contemporary post office.

Such post stations are set up along the official road, one every 30 kilometers, and each post station has horses.

Those who deliver documents can ride on horseback, and change horses every 30 kilometers.

In this way, the urgent report can be relayed, and the day and night travel of eight hundred miles can be realized.

Therefore, the ancient 800-mile express is not a joke.

Although Yan County is more than two thousand miles away from the capital, it can be reached in three to five days by using the post station, even if you walk slowly.

“His Royal Highness, you still remember Xiaonu.”

Entering the palace, Zhao Xu saw a young eunuch and two soldiers of the Imperial Army waiting in the front yard.

Seeing Zhao Xu, the young eunuch immediately had a smile on his face.

Zhao Xu searched in his memory and found the eunuch’s memory.

“Tong Zhangshi.” Zhao Xu smiled, pretending to be intimacy.

Dasong’s eunuchs are always in charge of Neifengfu.

The highest-ranking eunuch is called the chief eunuch, and ranks first.

At present, Liang Chengcheng is the general manager.

Under the general manager, there are also the eunuchs in front of the emperor, the eunuchs in front of the hall, the eunuchs of the leader, the eunuchs in charge, and the eunuchs who lead the class, from the second rank to the ninth rank.

This Tong San is the father-in-law and sixth-rank eunuch in the palace.

As far as he knew, he was Liang Cheng’s confidant who was responsible for announcing the imperial edict.

“Oh, I’m so honored that Your Highness still remembers Xiao Nu.” Tong San laughed.

While laughing, he looked at King Yan, seeing that King Yan was calm and dignified, without the madness he had in the palace at that time, secretly thought that King Yan really healed himself.

Originally, he could have arrived at Yan City one day earlier, but he was ordered by the emperor to inquire about King Yan after he entered Yan County.

All the common people along the way praised the King of Yan, while the merchants coveted the goods of the King’s Mansion, saying that the mansion of the King of Yan was like a bucket of gold every day.

“My king recovered from his illness, so I remembered how my father-in-law took care of me when he was in the palace.” Zhao Xu continued to be polite.

Tong San in the palace used to treat him well, and he didn’t take extra care of him.

But since we met, we must be true and false.

Tong San knew that these words were nothing more than Yan Wang’s formulas.

At this time, he revealed the imperial decree, “The emperor was very happy to learn that His Highness had recovered from his illness, and specially asked Xiao Nu to come to Yan County to declare the holy will to His Highness.”

Zhao Xu understood that this was the decree to be proclaimed.

At this time, he turned around and knelt down to the south, because that was the direction of the imperial city, showing his respect for the emperor.

Standing beside Zhao Xu, Tong San unfolded the imperial decree and said: “I am very relieved to hear that Yan Wangxu has recovered from his illness. However, since you are in Yan County, you should be diligent in government affairs, and don’t forget the important task of the vassal king to guard the royal family. You must not act recklessly. This is it.”

“Thank you Lord Long, long live my emperor, long live, long live.” After Tong San finished reading, Zhao Xu shouted.

At this time, Tong San handed over the imperial decree to Zhao Xu, and Zhao Xu stood up.

“The emperor also rewarded His Royal Highness with a thousand taels of silver and three hundred pieces of Shu brocade. The slaves will go first, and these things will arrive in two days.” Tong San laughed, “However, His Highness’s business is booming in the capital now. You don’t need to worry about something, and this time, Xiao Nu has brought good news to His Highness…”

Speaking of this, Tong San put on a show.

Feng’er has been entertaining Tong San since he came.

Hearing the sound, Zhao Xu understood, and said: “Feng’er, go to the treasury to get a thousand taels of silver to drink tea with Tong, and reward the two soldiers.”

“Yes, Your Highness.” Feng’er bowed her head and went.

Tong San showed a satisfied smile, “Feng’er’s arrival in Yan County is becoming more and more iconic.”

Then he cleared his throat and smiled mysteriously, “The emperor doesn’t reward His Highness much, but he has another surprise to ask for .” To Your Highness.”
