The qin sound of the little Rong was slowly released and sang softly. Zhou Bangyan's expression slowly calmed down, but he didn't speak or ask more questions. He just listened to the song slowly, and couldn't help but shake his head from time to time.

Zheng Zhi sat for a long time and kept observing in secret until he saw Zhou Bangyan's enjoyment expression, and knew in his heart that things were almost done.

After a moment of further development, Zheng Zhi stood up and said, "Uncle Zhou, my nephew is going to say goodbye."

Zhou Bangyan heard Zheng Zhi's words and also stood up and asked, "Isn't you having a meal at home today?"

Zheng Zhi obviously achieved his goal and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhou, I have some small things to do, and I will disturb you next time I will."

Zhou Duwen quickly stood up and said, "Brother Zheng, I'll take you out."

Zhou Duwen is coming to see Zheng Zhi, so he naturally wants to express his gratitude. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yingluo smiled and said, "Young Master Zhou is here to accompany the beauty. I should go back to the palace, and I will give you a gift to Mr. Zheng."

Zhou Duwen looked back at Rong Xiaorong, and knew that it was inappropriate to put her here alone. While hesitating, Zheng Zhi nodded with Zhao Yingluo with a smile, and had already stood up and went out. Zhao Yingluo also followed him.

The things on the surface are naturally over, but in the end, Zhou Bangyan and Zhou Duwen still have some words to say. After the two left, the father and son still need a frank communication about Rong Xiaorong.

Zheng Zhi and Zhao Yingluo walked out, and each of them prepared transportation tools outside the door, but they didn't have to walk together for long. At this time, Zheng Zhi slowed down and let Zhao Yingluo walk in front. Naturally, the identity of the emperor should have walked in front of him.

Zhao Yingluo had already spoken first: "Mr. Zheng is so talented, but he often leads troops outside. Have you ever thought of accepting orders in front of the emperor?"

Zheng Zhi was a little surprised when he heard this. He really didn't expect that such a 14-5-year-old princess would talk to him about such a topic and replied: "I didn't think much about the matter of being ordered by the emperor. I served the country, and it was the same everywhere. I was good at military formations and could lead troops to fight."

Zhao Yingluo nodded, and he still said "What a pity" in his heart, but he felt that there were more people who could fight wars, and there were not many people with extremely talented people. Zheng Zhi had been blamed for the category of extremely talented people. Naturally, people with extremely talented people should serve in front of the imperial court and formulate national policies. The way to govern the country is still superior after all. For example, Fan Wenzhenggong, Wang Anshi, Sima Guang.

"After the war, Mr. Zheng has to come to Tokyo. I will come early and come late." Zhao Yingluo said, and the deep meaning is that it is better to come early than to come late. The little princess' thoughts are still limited after all, and it is also an environmental influence. She only thinks that the ministers in the court are the pillars of the country, the role models for serving the country, and shoulder the important task of governing the country for the emperor.

"Well, your highness is right, I will come to Tokyo sooner or later." Zheng Zhi replied. It was just that the two of them had different understandings of this sentence.

After chatting for a while, Zhao Yingluo had already arrived at the door. He got to the side of his car frame, but he did not get in the car, but turned around and looked at Zheng Zhi.

Zheng Zhi took the reins from the hands of the personal soldier, exerted light force with his legs, and jumped up with a high head. The man had turned over and sat steadily on the back of the horse, and his movements were smooth and he completed in one go.

After seeing this action, Zhao Yingluo turned his head and stepped into the frame on the small stepping stairs.

The city of Tokyo is still peaceful, with peddlers, literati and high-ranking officials in the city doing their own things.

The snow in winter also slowly began to fall, and finally arrived in Bianliang in the severe winter. There were many old men selling charcoal in the city. They used simple ox carts to pull trucks of charcoal from all directions. When they entered the city, they paid some taxes and sold several trucks of charcoal, so they could have a good New Year when they went home.

The exchange of economic activities had a positive impact on the living standards of the people, which was also the main reason for the prosperity of the Song Dynasty.

There was no training in the camp in the afternoon, and the Tokyo Imperial Guards rarely practiced, and they didn't necessarily practiced once a month. Wang Bing came from Jiangnan, and his command was full of people and horses, so he naturally didn't practice.

The military men under Zheng Zhi did not practice because they had such a rare time, so the martial arts lecture schools in the army naturally had to start classes again.

Now these Chinese can even recognize a few baskets of big characters, and their progress is really good. Zheng Zhi is also starting to teach map skills, and he is extremely anxious and the course seems very nervous. Zheng Zhi knows that as long as these people can really learn map homework, the combat mode will undergo earth-shaking changes in the future.

Military plans can also be more detailed, and the command and dispatch of operations can be penetrated into the details.

At this time, Wu Yong and his men wandered around the streets and alleys of Bianliang just for procurement. As long as Wu Yong thought useful materials and raw materials would talk to the merchants for a long time, finalize the transaction price and quantity, pay a small deposit, and wait for these merchants to raise the goods and send them to Cangzhou.

For the people, money is the most important thing. For a force, money is just a medium after all, and materials are the main things. Replacing excess money with materials is the maximization of interests.

Li Gang was busy again. The fast horse from Bianliang arrived in a few days. Li Gang had already taken the lead in the government affairs of the government, and Pei Xuan and Zhu Wu helped him. Now the Jingliu Mansion is time to change its signature, which is the Jingliu Mansion on Hebei East Road. Logically speaking, this Jingliu Mansion should be located in Daming Mansion. In wartime, everything was followed. The capital of Hebei East Road reached Cangzhou on the front line of the border.

Li Gang's errands were nothing like before, they were to check the land, to collect taxes, and to ask for money.

The Hebei East Road is a rectangular area from north to south, starting from the Baoding Army in the north and the Xiongzhou line (Baoding, Xiongxian, Baxian), to the south and Daming Prefecture, Kaide Prefecture (Daming, Puyang). The territory is really not small, and to the west is naturally Hebei West Road, and to the east it enters Shandong, that is, Jingdong Road, and other places. Qizhou and Yunzhou are also the territory under Zheng Zhi's rule.

In this way, the two sides of the junction of Hebei and Shandong have been connected into a line, both of which are under Zheng Zhi's territory. Going eastward is the Shandong Peninsula, and the barriers of the Shandong Peninsula are all controlled by Zheng Zhi. The old land of Qi and part of Zhao.

Since Tong Guan talked to Zheng Zhi about Prince Yun, some of the staff under the Privy Council and the Palace Front Office have all had their jobs. It was snowing heavily, and the personnel were in and out. Many plainclothes soldiers appeared in and out of the city of Bianliang.

I started to inquire about the recent whereabouts of Wang Fu and Prince Yun, and it was at the door of Wang Fu's house. Now there are several waves of people following him.

This is Tong Guan's strength. Usually, it just doesn't work. When it comes to use, it is not comparable to other central or local yamen.

When the information arrived in front of Tong Guan, some things were naturally clear at a glance. The resignation of Zhao Chen, the son of the crown prince, had been discovered in the imperial edict, and it was not a secret matter for Wang Fu to see Geng Nanzhong several times.

Recently, Geng Nanzhong was also trembling and searching for treasures everywhere. He also heard that it was because of a mistake that he had made, and expressed his regret several times in front of others. He even asked about the words of some officials in the East Palace that Geng Nanzhong had already apologized in front of the prince.

Everything proves that Zheng Zhi's words are not false, and even exceeds Tong Guan's expectations. Tong Guan naturally would not know that Zhao Kai, Prince of Yun, was carried forward by Wang Fu. After these things came out, Tong Guan also knew that it was Zhao Kai who was determined to fight for it.

After thinking about it, Tong Guan went to pay homage to Zhao Huan. Although he was not a confession or something, he also had to communicate and express some meaning. Communication between people also required a process, not a time when he came forward and bowed, and immediately the brotherly friendship was as deep as the sea. Tong Guan started this process. As for whether to go deeper, it depends on Tong Guan's ability to judge the situation.

In two days, all handovers, from the seal of the commander to the imperial edict signed and stamped with the jade seal, and the channels for handover of documents from the three provinces and six ministries were all right, and Zheng Zhi also arrived north.

Before leaving, Zheng Zhi visited Tong Guan again, one was to say goodbye, and the other was to ask something.

As the night came to an end, Zheng Zhi saw that the meal was at Tong Guan’s mansion, and there was no need for Tong Guan’s instructions. The housekeeper naturally knew that he would prepare more dinner tonight.

At the dinner table, the two of them had a few drinks, and Tong Guan said, "You are going north tomorrow. Today, I also discussed it in the Privy Council. There is not much money and grain in the yamen, and the Ministry of Revenue is also in a shortage. You still have to take care of the food and wages yourself."

"En Xiang, I have an imperial edict coming to the head, asking all prefectures and prefectures in Hebei to cooperate in collecting wages. The military wages are not a big problem. Now there is only one place to think about it, that is, I will ask En Xiang for advice on this matter." Zheng Zhi came here, and there was something beyond his farewell.

"Let me tell me." Tong Guan stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of mutton and answered.

"Daming Mansion." Zheng Zhi said concisely. When Zheng Zhi communicated with Tong Guan, the two had already formed a lot of tacit understanding, and many words did not need to be said, just like a puzzle, but they understood each other in their hearts. In fact, the two felt very comfortable with this communication mode. It was really easy for smart people to speak.

Tong Guan stopped when he heard this. The mutton that was originally intended to be stuffed into his mouth was placed in a bowl, and even chopsticks were placed on the table.

The housekeeper who was serving next to him quickly handed over the cloth towel soaked in hot water. Tong Guan took the cloth towel and wiped his hands, then wiped the corners of his mouth.

This process is also a process of Tong Guan's thinking. After Tong Guan handed the cloth towel to the butler, he raised his hand and waved it. All the servants in the hall went out.

"It's time to give some colors to others." Tong Guan said slowly, and there was a slight gleam in his eyes.

Zheng Zhi nodded after hearing this and said, "I feel at ease if I have a kind word. Let's look at my methods."

Tong Guan also instructed: "If you act rigorously, you will not have the chance to turn things around."

"Don't worry, that's right." Zheng Zhi said firmly, then picked up the wine glass to toast.
