Chapter 204 Return to Chengdu
In order to avoid the recurrence of a large number of people gathering to see him off, Yang Qing and others all dressed up in disguise and did not show their whereabouts along the way. When passing through Beishui, Xindao, and Anshang County, Yang Qing did not enter the city, but sent Lu Shen to
, Qi Xiu and other major county officials were called out of the city to speak.
After exhorting Lu Shen that day, Yang Qing and his party left Anshang and left Yuexun County for Bodao County.
"De Mao, Shu Qi, how far are we from Bo Road?" Yang Qing reined in the horse and slowed it down.
Wu Que also slowed down his horse and replied: "Que estimates that we are still about a hundred miles away from Bodao. According to my horse's speed, we will arrive at Bodao City at noon tomorrow."
Yang Qing transferred away from Yuexi and also took Wu Que, the intelligence chief, with him. Wu Que had many secrets and was one of his confidants, so naturally he would not be allowed to stay in Yuexi.
Before leaving, Wu Que had handed over all the intelligence affairs of Yuexun County to his capable subordinate Yu Cheng. This man was a native of Qiongdu. He had instigated a large number of people to rebel during the battle of Gaoding and obtained a lot of important information.
, he had a lot of merits and was smart and capable. Yang Qing also recognized this person very much and agreed to Yu Cheng's taking over.
"Well, that's good. When we arrive at Bodao tomorrow, we can visit Lord Li." Yang Qing nodded.
Last year, the person who succeeded Wang Shi, the former prefect of Jianwei, was Chen Zhen, the former prefect of Wenshan. In the past, Yang Qing had met him once and wanted to take the time to visit him. Unexpectedly, Chen Zhen was transferred to the prefect of Jianwei and was transferred soon after he became the prefect of Jianwei.
He went to court and became the minister, so the only way to see him was in Chengdu.
The current Grand Administrator of Jianwei is Li Miao. He is a native of Qixian County, Guanghan County, and his family is also a local surname, named Guanghan Li family.
There were three outstanding clan members of the Li family in Guanghan, all with good talents and prestige. People at that time called them the Three Dragons of the Li family. These three dragons were all brothers of Li Miao, and one of them was an acquaintance of Yang Qing.
In the past, when Yang Qing was the prime minister, his colleague Xicao Yu Li Shao.
It's just that Li Shao died of illness not long after he was transferred from Xicao to Yizhou to govern Zhongzhong last year. When Yang Qing found out about it, he couldn't help but sigh. Li Shao's health seemed to be good when he left Chengdu, but he didn't.
I think of this person leaving last year.
Speaking of which, it was Li Shao who read out the appointment to Yang Qing when he first became an official. After that, the relationship between the two was always good. Who would have thought that they would be separated forever in less than two years?
There is misfortune but there is good fortune.
Since he was passing by Jianwei and was an acquaintance with Li Shao, Yang Qing had no choice but to visit Li Miao when he arrived at Bodao. However, considering his true intentions, he really didn't want to deal with the Lord of Li Mansion.
In his opinion, this Mr. Li is not a kind person, he can even be said to be a villain with deep hidden secrets.
According to original history, this king wanted to engage in political speculation after the death of Prime Minister Zhuge, so he went to Shu Liu Chan to attack Prime Minister Zhuge wildly, which aroused the indignation of most Ji Han subjects.
It would be fine if others did this because of different political opinions. However, Zhuge Liang once saved Li Miao's life, and he valued him highly in the past and recruited him as prime minister to join the army.
Therefore, not only as a benefactor, but also as an official, Li Miao could not attack his benefactor.
However, because he was demoted by Zhuge Liang in the Ma Su case, he held a grudge from then on, and launched an attack after Zhuge Liang's death. He was simply an ungrateful villain. Fortunately, Liu Chan was wise and saw that Li Miao was so heartbroken, so he immediately angrily threw him into prison and executed him.
Therefore, Yang Qing felt that it was better to keep a certain distance from this kind of arrogant and romantic villain with a sinister and cunning inside. However, he did not want to see this person, but out of etiquette, he still had to pay him a visit. After all,
Originally, he hadn't done any of the bad things in history.
At noon the next day, Yang Qing and his party finally arrived at Bodao City. When they reached the city gate, they saw dozens of sergeants and three or five officials waiting by the official road outside the city. He had already seen the leader clearly.
"Is that Mr. Li Fu in front?" Yang Qing got off his horse, threw the reins to Zhou Xing beside him, and stepped forward to greet the leading scribe.
The scribe looked to be in his early thirties, with a slender figure and extraordinary appearance. He was Li Miao, the governor of Jianwei.
A few hours ago, he received a notification from Yang Qing and came here specially to meet him. When Yang Qing saluted him, he quickly returned the salute and said, "It's Li, but Yang Canjun is in person?"
Yang Qing smiled and said: "I am Yang Qing. Lord Laofu is here to greet you. I have heard of Lord Fu for a long time. It is a blessing to see you today."
"Haha, Yang Canjun is ridiculous. Li's little reputation is nothing compared to joining the army. In the past, I heard about joining the army from my brother-in-law, but I never had a chance to meet him. I didn't expect to meet today. Join the army.
His reputation has impressed the great man, and his reputation is even better than before." Although Li Miao was an arrogant person, he was still very polite to Yang Qing.
After hearing this, Yang Qing repeatedly said that he did not dare, and then sighed with a sad face: "Oh, when the Qing Dynasty was appointed as the chief secretary by the prime minister in the past, it was Yongnan Gong who came to announce the appointment, and he was the one who led me later.
Entered the prime minister's house. I didn't expect that last year, God was so jealous of the talented people that I, a big man, lost another Liang Er. How sad is it? "
Seeing this, Li Miao couldn't help but feel sad when he thought of his brother. He sighed and explained: "Joining the army is such a loving relationship. If my brother is alive in heaven, he will be happy. But he has passed away, so it is too sad to ask him to join the army."
.Miao has prepared a banquet in the mansion, especially to prepare for joining the army."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and said "please". Yang Qing nodded slightly and said "please" in return. The two of them took carriages and led everyone into the city.
Yang Qing stayed in Bodao for a day. During this period, Li Miao also treated him with hospitality and courtesy. Although he had prejudices against this person, he seemed to get along well with him.
After bidding farewell to Li Miao, Yang Qing and others changed horses and took a boat in Bodao. It was still a thousand miles away from Chengdu, so it was much easier and more convenient to take the waterway.
Although the thousand-mile waterway is upstream, the speed of the boat is not slow. After about seven or eight days of traveling, we have entered the territory of Shu County, and we can reach Chengdu in another one or two days.
It was a beautiful and sunny day in spring, and the scenery outside Chengdu Jiangqiao was bustling with people. Pedestrians, merchants, and tourists were constantly flowing in. Cloth, leather, lacquerware and other goods were placed on the stalls along the river. It was really a prosperous scene.
Listening to the lively cries, Zhou Xing smiled and said to Yang Qing: "Joining the army, why does Xing feel that Chengdu is much more prosperous than when we left?"
Yang Qing looked around and laughed: "We have been away from Chengdu for two years. Based on Prime Minister Zhuge's ability to govern, isn't it normal that Chengdu will become more prosperous?"
"Hey, that's true." Zhou Xing also sincerely admired Zhuge Liang's talent. The country has been recuperating for nearly three years, and it's time for Chengdu to return to its former prosperity.
Yang Qing looked at the city of Chengdu, which he had not seen for two years, with deep emotion in his heart. Two years ago, he set out from here to go south, made great achievements in the wilderness, and established his career thousands of miles away. Now he has been granted the title of marquis and general, and he can be said to be the leader of the Ji Han Dynasty.
The brightest new star.
Only he himself knows the difficulties and dangers here, not others. Now that the south has been leveled, he finally helped Zhuge Liang turn Nanzhong into a solid rear area for Ji Han's Northern Expedition to the Central Plains. Now that he has returned to Chengdu, he should turn his mind to the vast
The Central Plains.
