After meeting Xu Shu in Liangzhou, Ma Qiang stopped the journey westward of the team, because it was almost June. According to the plan, the first state meeting of the Han Dynasty would be held at the end of September and early October.

After all, it's still inconvenient transportation.

The large group of people is inconvenient to move, but the small team of cavalry can make quick contacts.

Ma Qiang took Jia Xu, Dian Wei, Gao Shun and hundreds of cavalrymen, left their chariots and horses, and spent a month to express their condolences to the generals guarding the border in Dunhuang, Jiuquan, Zhangye and other places. He followed Jia Xu back to Jia Xu's hometown Wuwei. When he returned to Ji County, it was already July.

On the sixth day of July, Ma Qiang led a large group of people back from Ji County. When he passed by Chang'an, he found that the expansion of Chang'an had begun. The new brick and cement factories were constantly emitting black smoke and white smoke, and were fully producing building materials.

Thanks to the abundant minerals near Chang'an, especially coal mines with bare surfaces, the expansion work in Chang'an would not have been so easy to start.

Bricks are one of the most traditional masonry materials. They were used as early as the Zhou Dynasty, and were widely used in the palaces or city walls in the Qin and Han Dynasties. As the saying goes, Qin bricks and Han tiles, which can be seen.

The reason why bricks were not used on a large scale in the people was mainly because in ancient China there was really no shortage of trees, and the processing and construction of wood could better meet the needs of construction. To put it bluntly, the architectural characteristics and development of the region were based on local environmental resources and living habits, and the people could live a life.

But for large-scale buildings like Chang'an City, the economy of wood is much worse. Bricks can be burned at will. If you want to cut the wood like this, Mount Li will have to show you the barrenness.

Ma Qiang didn't want to start drinking wind and sand after moving to Chang'an.

In September, Ma Qiang returned to Guangzong. It took him four months to go back and forth. It was early summer when he went back, and it was early autumn when he returned.

This day is so fast.

"Why did you bring another one back?"

Cai Yan, who was teasing the child with Qingning in the General's Mansion, learned that Ma Qiang and others had come back, so he went to the gate to greet him. When he saw Wu Xian following Qingcheng, he couldn't help but complain secretly, and then looked down at his capital.

Well, although not that much, it is not bad either!

"Sister Zhaoji, why are you here?"

"Isn't this going to move to Chang'an? I'll come to Mrs. Qingning to discuss the relocation matters."

Ma Qiang looked at his group of elfs and romance, and was once again moved by the corruption and depravity of feudal society.

If this were in later generations, I would not know what kind of Shura field it would become.

Thinking of this, Ma Qiang couldn't help but rub his waist. Although the bruises had dissipated, why did they still feel a little painful?

The same is true for Qingcheng. It’s an old couple, and it’s still so easy or heavy!

At this time, a fallen leaf fell at Ma Qiang's feet.

Ma Qiang looked up at the sky.

In a flash, it was already autumn.

"Where are there anyone else outside this list?"

Wang Yue looked at the list provided to him by Shi A, and felt shocking.

There are not only old officials of the Han Dynasty, but also border generals, as well as local powerful clans and merchants.

Although most of the people above are not high and have no status, if these people work together to cause trouble, Hebei will be in chaos for a while.

"I'm still digging deeper. I've been dormant for nearly two months before, which has made our work progress very slowly in the early stages, and I'm worried about alerting the enemy, so it's a bit slow."

"The General told me when he came back that the case must be settled before the end of the State Conference.

It's September now, and the State Conference will be held within a month. Can you find out thoroughly?"

Shi A suddenly felt it was difficult. Now, the people who drifted on it have almost dug it out, and the people behind him may not be able to dig it out without any special means.

"According to the results found now, Ji Ping must have a list in his hand. If he can get this list, he can catch it all in one go!

But Ji Ping hid this list very privately. If he didn’t search the house, it would be difficult to obtain it.”

Wang Yue waved his hand and said, "If it is a house search, just let the Neiwu Guard go. What do we need to do for the Jinyi Guard?"

Seeing Shi A's embarrassment, Wang Yue sighed, "Forget it, I'll think about this matter again, you can try your best to investigate it first."

"promise!"

Wang Yue took the roster and came to the General's Mansion and handed the roster to Ma Qiang to read.

Ma Qiang looked through it and saw that Liu Bei, Cao Cao and others who had been worried about him, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But what is going on with Jin Xuan? Isn’t this guy a good deal?

Ma Qiang shook his head and asked, "Is that all?"

"According to Shi A's report, Ji Ping may have a record, but he just couldn't get it for the time being."

“Catalogue….”

Ma Qiang thought for a while and said, "He will not take out this list until the last moment, so it will make him feel that now is the last moment!"

"What does Ming Gong mean?"

"In a few days, Mr. Lu will lead his team to Guangzong. I just happened to ask the emperor to write an edict. At that time, Ji Ping will see how the emperor is helpless and force him to rebel in advance!"

"promise!"

——September 25, 2019

The representatives of the State Congress of the Han Dynasty have basically arrived in Guangzong, and the newly built temporary State Congress venue has also been successfully completed.

"In order to speed up the construction period, the temporary state conference venue was rebuilt by the Opera House. Mr. Lu, you see, it can accommodate thousands of people here, and there is a sound amplification system, which can ensure that everyone can hear what they say on the speech table below."

In order to attend the State Conference, Lu Zhi also brought all the staff of the National Council Cabinet and ministers from various departments to Guangzong. Since there was no quota for officials during the design, they could only occupy the quota for celebrities that Lu Zhi himself had won or go to Youzhou himself to fight for the quota for quota.

This is actually the same as in later generations.

"Where is the bill?"

"This is also something I am going to discuss with Mr. Lu. Let's go, there is a small conference room there, let's go there and talk."

Ma Qiang took Lu Zhi to a small conference room. The conference room was a round table, and more than ten pieces of materials had been placed on the round table.

Ma Qiang let everyone take a seat, Lu Zhi looked around and found that in addition to himself and Ma Qiang, there were Huang Zhong, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Ma Teng, and Hua Jing, Han Fu, Zhao Wen, Zhao Qi, and Lu An whom he brought.

As for Cai Yong and Shen Ping, they were left in Ji County. After all, the cabinet cannot be left without a job, and the two of them have to prepare for moving the capital, so they are not idle.

"This state conference will bring 1,000 representatives from all counties and counties of the fifteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty. However, the news from Yangzhou is that no representatives have appeared in Jiaozhou so far. It seems that Shi Xie is not going to send someone."

Ma Qiang said, wanting to laugh a little.
