Chapter 201: No doubt about employing people(1/3)

"Finally left."

May 16th.

When the sun has just risen.

In the study room of the Prince's Mansion in the East Palace, Xu Yong put his hands on his back and looked towards the city gate through the window sill.

There was an indescribable and unexplained sense of relief in his expression.

"If we don't leave, we will become completely paupers."

Next to Xu Yong, Li Guangli's eyes were filled with bitterness and he sighed with emotion.

Since Xu Yi's wedding, Li Guangli and Xu Yong have been staring at Xu Yi's every move all the time.

I'm afraid Xu Yi will do something wrong again at the last minute.

Fortunately, before and after the wedding, Xu Yi had been busy with the complicated engagement, and he didn't care.

When Xu Yong heard this, his face turned gloomy instantly with his back to Li Guangli.

For a prince to be forced to provide food, fodder and weapons to his opponent, this... is simply a huge humiliation.

Xu Yong slowly turned around and faced Li Guangli, with a gloomy expression on his face: "I hope he can be stable for a year after arriving in Shanggu County."

Li Guangli nodded slightly when he heard this, knowing in his heart that Xu Yong had already made up his mind.

If Xu Yi can be stable for one year, Xu Yong will allow him to live happily for one year.

After a year, another step to eradicate the problem will be carried out.

By that time, Xu Yong's own suspicion will be greatly reduced, or even close to nothing.

If Xu Yi's vassal status is still unstable, then don't blame him for being ruthless and cutting off the roots in advance!

Compared with later history books and the evaluation of the world, Xu Yong cared more about whether he could sit on that throne.

If Xu Yong was still a little indecisive before, then after nearly losing all his family wealth, the indecisiveness deep in Xu Yong's heart has completely disappeared.

Li Guangli was silent for a few moments, and then warned: "Now that Xu Yi has left Chang'an City, you should stabilize the court as soon as possible. After all, it may take three or four years at the earliest, or one or two years at the earliest."

Xu Yong naturally understood who Li Guangli was referring to.

Hearing this, Xu Yong couldn't help but breathe a little heavier.

After taking a few deep breaths, Xu Yong nodded and said, "Don't worry, uncle, I know how to do it."

Li Guangli nodded slightly, then lowered his voice and said in a deep voice: "The army will set off in five days, and I will look for opportunities to help you then."

Xu Yong hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded slowly and whispered: "Uncle, be very careful, don't let a small thing lead to a big loss."

"Don't worry, if you can't do it, I won't force it." Li Guangli pondered for a few breaths and nodded heavily.

...

...

Xuanping Gate in Chang'an City.

Rong Pingchuan stood on the city gate tower with his hands behind his back, looking at the direction Xu Yi left.

I don't know how long it took.

Lieutenant General Dong Xing walked slowly towards Rong Pingchuan wearing ordinary clothes.

"How are you thinking?" Rong Pingchuan asked without looking back after hearing the familiar footsteps.

Dong Xing slowly shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Old corps commander, with the deputy general named Li here, do I have any choice? There are several gates in Chang'an City, and there is nowhere that can accommodate me."

The deputy general named Li was none other than a general who was transferred to Xuanpingmen by the Sifang Governor's Office during the disaster relief period.

As for its purpose, it is naturally self-evident.

Over the course of several months, Lieutenant General Li fought dozens of rounds with Rong Pingchuan, both covertly and covertly.

It's a pity that both sides have won and lost in dozens of rounds, and no one can do anything to the other.

Seeing this, Lieutenant General Li changed his strategy and launched an attack from beneath Rong Pingchuan.

The first person to bear the brunt was Rong Pingchuan's right-hand man Dong Xing.

The struggle surrounding Dong Xing lasted for more than half a month.

In the end, Dong Xing was dismissed and Rong Pingchuan suffered a huge loss.

Moreover, as long as Vice General Li was in Chang'an City, Dong Xing could no longer hope to obtain an official position in the army.

Rong Pingchuan sighed and said slowly: "I have already said hello to His Highness King Yan."

"When you go to the land of Yan, His Highness the King of Yan will give you a thousand soldiers and horses."

After finishing his words, Rong Pingchuan paused, took half a step forward and whispered: "Cavalry."

"A Thousand Riders...!" Dong Xing, who had a hint of distress on his face, opened his eyes instantly when he heard this, and even his mouth opened uncontrollably.

Just when the exclamation of "a thousand cavalry" was about to break out, Rong Pingchuan covered Dong Xing's mouth.

"Keep your voice down." Rong Pingchuan whispered.

"Yeah." Dong Xing nodded quickly.

After Rong Pingchuan let go, Dong Xing's face turned red and he took several deep breaths, but he still couldn't control the excitement in his heart.

He quickly asked: "Old corps commander, are you really going to give me a thousand cavalry? Is it true?"

The entire team of generals guarding Xuanping Gate only had 500 cavalry at all times.

How unbridled and happy it would be if you could lead a thousand cavalry and gallop across the prairie to kill the enemy?

Just thinking about it makes Dong Xing so excited that he trembles all over.

Rong Pingchuan nodded solemnly and said, "When did I lie to you? When did His Highness, King Yan, break his promise?"

"That's not the case, that's not the case." Dong Xing nodded repeatedly.

Rong Pingchuan paused and continued: "Besides, when you arrive in Yandi, Prince Yan's Mansion will help you settle your family."

"Yan Di is not like Chang'an City. It is more or less spacious and sparsely populated. Once there, at least the whole family won't have to crowd into a small courtyard."

Dong Xing could not hide his excitement on his face, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "Old corps commander is joking, I went to Yandi to follow His Highness, not for a house."

"You, you." Rong Pingchuan knocked on Dong Xing's head and continued: "Besides, before King Yan left, he said that when he arrived in Yan, he would personally open several private schools."

"At that time, you and the children of Gu Dengyun's family will be able to study in private schools without being bound."

Upon hearing this, Dong Xing hurriedly turned around and ran towards the city gate tower. As he ran, he said, "Old corpsman, I'm leaving first. When the New Year comes, I'll send you some specialties from over there to wish you a happy New Year."

Rong Pingchuan looked at Dong Xing's quickly disappearing figure, smiled, turned around and walked into the city gate tower.

The moment he stepped into the city gate tower, his originally smiling face turned gloomy.

Rong Pingchuan looked in the direction of the other gate tower through the thick gate tower.

His gloomy eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the thick gate tower and face the deputy general named Li in another gate tower.

...

...

Around noon, the sun is shining.

A long dragon composed of more than a thousand people drove slowly on the official road outside Chang'an City.

Starting from the dragon's head, several cavalrymen holding flags will appear at regular intervals.

The flag is entirely made of cyan fabric.

A majestic four-clawed green dragon is painted on the four sides of the flag.

In the center surrounded by green dragons is a huge Chinese character "Yan" embroidered with gold silk.

Precisely because of the presence of the cavalry and the four-clawed Qinglong Yanwang Banner, the team was extremely bloated even though it stretched for several miles.

But its traveling speed is not slow at all.

Along the way, all the trading houses on the official road gave way.

"Vomit." The long queue traveled for more than twenty miles, and a sound of retching suddenly came from a large carriage in the middle.

"Are you carsick?" Xu Yi looked at Wang Qiujin, who was covering his mouth and looking sickly red, and couldn't help but asked with concern.

"vomit." Wang Qiujin was about to reply, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she heard another retching sound.

The two had just gotten married a few days ago, and even Xu Yi, who was inexperienced, could tell that it was motion sickness and not pregnancy.

Xu Yi hurriedly picked up a few plums from the small wooden table in front of him and put them into Wang Qiujin's hands.

He ordered: "Eat a few prunes to relieve motion sickness."

After he finished speaking, Xu Yi opened the car curtain to let in fresh air.

"Okay." Wang Qiujin nodded slightly and then put the plum into his mouth.

As Fang Yi chewed, his little face instantly wrinkled up, and he bared his teeth and said, "Sour."
