Feng Yong had been to Jincheng several times in his previous life, once in January.

When I first got off the train, it was still drizzling, and everyone was wearing military coats, so it felt a bit cold and cold.

Jincheng in December during the Little Ice Age always seemed like it was going to snow, and it felt even colder than in previous lives.

In other words, the snow has already fallen and just melted in mid-air.

A bit of biting cold wind blew by. Feng Yong tightened his tight down jacket and asked Li Yi, "Wenxuan, are everything arranged up front?"

Although the down jacket is not as good-looking as later generations, it can still keep warm.

Wearing a sweater underneath and a sheepskin hat on your head will keep you very warm.

It's more than enough to deal with this kind of weather.

It's just that the down jacket uses Sichuan brocade, which makes it extremely expensive. Most people can't afford it.

"Don't worry, brother. Mi Hongliang and Deng Weizhe have already settled things according to brother's wishes."

Li Yi quickly replied.

Among the seven counties in the south, only Yuejun has not been leveled.

It is not suitable to use troops in winter. Besides, the soldiers have been fighting for almost a year and are homesick. Therefore, Feng Yong, the appointed prefect of Yuejun, followed him back to Jincheng. The Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty planned to ask him to take people to Yue in the spring of next year. Jun.

Although he went south in the name of checking the farming situation in Nanzhong, he later helped the army a lot and made some contributions, so Feng Yong and others could blend in with the team returning from victory.

The front team soon ran into the hundreds of officials sent out by Liu Chan to greet them.

"Liu Yan has come to greet the Prime Minister by order of His Majesty."

Among the ministers who stayed in Jincheng, Liu Yan had the highest official position in name, so the officials who greeted him were naturally headed by Liu Yan.

To be honest, going out to greet the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty in this cold winter is really a hard job.

Many people's noses were so cold that they had runny noses.

But no matter how painful it is, everyone's face is always smiling.

Dahan had suffered a series of defeats in the past few years, and finally won a victory, which finally gave everyone a piece of reassurance.

After Zhuge Liang got out of his car and greeted everyone one by one, Fei Yi, the inner palace attendant, announced the emperor's decree.

After Zhuge Liang received the imperial edict, he said to Fei Yi, "How about Wen Wei riding with me?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone looked sideways.

Among the hundreds of officials who came to greet him, Fei Yi's official status could only be regarded as a medium one. Many people present had a higher status than him. The only special thing was that he came with the emperor's imperial edict.

But the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty is your Majesty's father-in-law. To put it bluntly, even your Majesty has to listen to the Prime Minister now. When will the Prime Minister need to please Your Majesty?

So everyone was thinking: Is this Fei Yi so important to the Prime Minister?

Fei Yi was suddenly honored, but his expression was calm, "The Prime Minister has your orders, how dare you disobey him?"

After that, he and the Prime Minister boarded the car and set off.

The chariots and horses are dancing, the soldiers are carrying swords and swords at their waists, and the tigers and beni are guarding them at the sides.

There are curtains on three sides of the carriage. If you don't stand in front and watch, everyone on both sides can only see the shadow of the Prime Minister and Fei Yi sitting opposite each other.

In addition, when the army returned victoriously, everyone was talking and laughing, and there were soldiers and tigers guarding the surrounding area. Therefore, even if many people wanted to know what the Prime Minister and Fei Yi said, they could not hear clearly.

"Prime Minister, do you have something to arrange for your subordinates?"

Fei Yi sat quietly and asked calmly.

"Wen Wei knows me."

Zhuge Liang chuckled, "Then I wonder if Wen Wei can guess what I'm thinking?"

"How do you know what the prime minister is thinking?"

Fei Yi shook his head.

"What I think of is nothing more than being able to revive the Han Dynasty."

Zhuge Liang sighed and pointed to the noisy crowd outside, "Everyone is happy to put down the chaos in Nanzhong. But in my opinion, the chaos in Nanzhong is just an itch."

"According to the wishes of the Prime Minister, this big worry is Cao Cao's thief? Or is it Soochow?"

Fei Yi asked.

"The Cao thief takes up two of the three parts of the world, and the combination of Han and Wu takes up one." Zhuge Liang rarely showed a slightly anxious look on his face, "The longer it takes, the stronger the Cao thief will become."

"So Cao Cao's thief is naturally the biggest worry, but it would be difficult for a big man to fight Cao Cao's thief alone!"

After hearing this, Fei Yi understood: "Does the Prime Minister want you to go to Soochow to be friendly?"

"That's right." Zhuge nodded approvingly, "Soochow had a hand in the Nanzhong Rebellion. At that time, Sun Quan also asked Liu Zhang's son Liu Chan to be stationed in Jiaozhou so that he could take over the Nanzhong territory at any time."

"Although Han and Wu have just formed an alliance, they still have their own concerns. After pacifying Nanzhong this time, Soochow's calculations have come to nothing. Therefore, I want to send more goodwill envoys to avoid causing further discord between Han and Wu, so that in the future

I can fight against thieves with all my strength."

"So this is the Prime Minister's purpose of conferring honors on you, right?"

Fei Yi said clearly.

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and said, "There are many famous people in Soochow. If the Han Dynasty sends an unknown person there, they will think that we are not sincere. You are talented, but your reputation is not obvious. Now I am just doing it casually."

But I wonder if you are willing to go to Soochow in person?"

"How can you say whether you are willing to serve the country or not?"

Fei Yisurong said.

When Adou in the rear heard the report that the Prime Minister asked Fei Yi to ride with him, he was sitting in a makeshift tent warming himself by the fire.

There was a brazier in the middle of the tent, which burned fine charcoal and produced very little smoke.

This is the latest refined charcoal purchased by the Imperial Household this year, and it could not be used before.

After hearing what happened in front of him, Adou was stunned for a moment, his eyes were a little blank, and he didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he quietly asked, "Is this Fei Yi from Jingzhou?

"

Huang Hu, who had been standing in the corner of the camp without any sense of presence, immediately replied: "Your Majesty, Fei Yi is indeed from Jingzhou, and his ancestral home is Jiangxia."

"Well, I understand."

Adou nodded, thought for a moment, and then asked, "How is he?"

"He is modest and generous in nature. It is said that his family has no money left. His wife and children are commoners and vegetarians, and they do not travel by horse or carriage."

Adou nodded again and sighed softly, "No matter what Xiangfu meant by this move, the reason why Han officials can behave like this is because Xiangfu took the lead."

Thinking again of the elders who followed the late emperor, only two are more prominent now, one is Zhao Yun and the other is Liu Yan.

It's just that Zhao Yun is old and Liu Yan is just talking.

Although there are many locals in Yizhou, there are not many who can be used in important positions.

On the contrary, people from Jingzhou who followed the late emperor to Shu were constantly employed.

Liu Chan was thoughtful, thinking that after all, outsiders do not have such complicated relationships as Yizhou people, so it is naturally simple to use them.

But one day, the people of Jingzhou will continue to grow old and pass away like the elders who first followed the late emperor. What will happen then?

"Huang Hu, since the loss of Jingzhou, the late emperor and my father-in-law didn't trust the people of Yizhou very much. But after all, we are based on Yizhou. This is not the way to go. What do you think I should do to make them useful to me?

?”

After hearing this, Huang Hu felt cold sweat pouring down his back.

"Your Majesty, how do you know about the affairs of the imperial court?"

Both the late emperor and the prime minister once said that it was because the eunuchs taught the emperor bad things that the world became what it is today.

Although Huang Hu himself didn't understand why eunuchs were so capable, he still knew that the late emperor and the prime minister had strictly ordered the palace people not to talk about court affairs at will.

Not to mention any suggestions for His Majesty.

If the Prime Minister found out, it was unclear whether his life could be saved.

"Just say what you say, there are only two of you here."

Liu Chan understood Huang Hu's worries and said with some dissatisfaction, "Am I a majestic emperor who can't tell the difference between good and bad?"

"Yes, yes." Huang Hu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his heart pounding, thinking about how he should answer to pass the test safely. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly remembered someone.

"Your Majesty, why don't you summon Feng Langjun and ask him? I have seen that Feng Langjun is surrounded by many princes from his Xinghanhui. Their fathers, whether from Jingzhou, Yizhou or even Liangzhou, are all willing to call Feng Langjun their brother."

.I think Feng Langjun should have a deep understanding of this."

"Huh? You, a eunuch, do have two things to say."

Liu Chan glanced at Huang Hu with some surprise, thinking how could I forget him?

This Feng Yong, not only has many talents, but is also deeply loved by the second generation of nobles. Everyone calls him brother. Isn't this the best example?

Then he remembered that Zhao Guang, Li Yi and others were following Feng Yong, and he couldn't help but touch his chin, thinking that in another ten or twenty years, Feng Yong would be the leader of the ministers again?

I remembered that the queen often said that she and Feng Yong were similar in age. Then there will be another story about the relationship between the monarch and his subjects...
