Chaos in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Chapter 97
Good guy!
Half holy!

I still underestimated Xie Daoyun!
But think about it, in the history of later generations, Xie Daoyun's talent name was one of the best in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and she also became famous as a teenager, but she is only 18 years old. If she is about to become a semi-saint, wouldn't it be too perverted? !

"Why didn't you speak?"

Guan Ziyang said dumbly: "Ah? What should I say? What can I say?"

"Aren't you going to let me confess to my family?"

Under Xie Daoyun's bewildered gaze, Guan Ziyang got up and left, stopped at the door, turned his head and said indifferently: "You can decide for yourself, um, that's right, I'll listen to you."

After finishing speaking, he closed the door and left.

"Half Saint, as long as you are happy..."

On the second day, Zhou Fu came to report that the people in the city had been resettled properly, and then he leaned into Guan Ziyang's ear and asked in a low voice, "How to deal with the more than 20 female family members of the Xiao family."

Guan Ziyang asked doubtfully, "How do you usually deal with this situation?"

Zhou Fu thought that Guan Ziyang pretended not to understand on purpose, and said with a lewd smile: "Hey, isn't it up to you how to deal with it?"

You don't let your subordinates touch them, but now you're pretending, this kid is young, but he has a lot of appetite.

No wonder Zhou Fu misunderstood, the defeated family members were always the property of the winners, and Guan Ziyang's protection of them naturally meant taking them as his own.

Guan Ziyang also reacted after seeing Zhou Fu's dissolute expression.

I was misunderstood.

His original intention was just to establish his image of benevolence and virtue in this troubled world, and to win the favor of the people at the bottom.

But he never thought about how he would arrange these people.

There was no Jiaofangsi in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and this thing only appeared in the Tang Dynasty. Guan Ziyang thought it all together, so he could just get a Jiaofangsi himself.

"It's better for Governor Zhou to give them all to me. I'll take them to Jiankang and report them to the Queen Mother to get a Jiaofang Secretary."

"Jiaofang Division?"

"It's the department responsible for the celebration and welcoming VIPs to play music."

Zhou Fu suddenly realized, and continued to flatter: "The governor has a good opinion, a good opinion."

Of course, he didn't mention the other function of the Jiaofang Secretary. When he reports it to the court, those people will naturally understand the hidden role of the Jiaofang Secretary...

After a few days of recuperation in Zitong County, some food was replenished, and the Zhongyong army was assembled before preparing to return to the imperial court.

There were 1000 people in this expedition, and 200 people were lost. Although it exceeded Guan Ziyang's expectations, this record is already considered proud.

Some people who were not convinced by Guan Ziyang before, now they all look at him with admiration. In the battle of Zitong County, Guan Ziyang can be said to have become famous in one battle.

Entering the city with a clever plan, taking the lead, winning the three armies bravely, and killing the famous masters of the "Martial Arts Master List". Such a dazzling record is enough to shut up those who question his title of leader of the final product meeting.

When the army returned to the court, Zhou Fu went out of the city to see each other ten miles away. When they parted, Zhou Fu burst into tears, which made the second monk Guan Ziyang Zhang confused.

"Captain, this farewell, you and I are officials in various places. In the future, the commander will go north to the Central Plains one day, so please don't forget to be an official."

It turned out that he was another master who wanted to go to the Northern Expedition, Guan Ziyang smiled, this is easy to handle, other people might think about it, but Zhou Fu is a real brave general with both wisdom and courage!

OK, take it!

Guan Ziyang put his arms around Zhou Fu's shoulders, and walked aside: "Inspector Zhou, you are too polite, don't worry, if my younger brother is really able to lead the army to the Northern Expedition one day, I will definitely not forget you, Inspector Zhou."

Seeing Guan Ziyang's sudden intimacy, Zhou Fu was also flattered, and hurriedly said: "The lower official is only a few years older, this elder brother dare not be a lower official!"

Guan Ziyang said again: "Actually, my little brother wants to ask my brother for help with something, and I hope to help."

"It's okay to speak, the governor."

"Actually, my younger brother was born in the Hedong Guan family in Fuling. Now I am away all year round, and I am very worried about my family. This time, Mao proposed to attack Xiao Jingwen by surprise, because I am also worried about the safety of my family."

"My brother is the governor of Yizhou, please take care of me."

Zhou Fulian assured him that he would go back to Jiankang with peace of mind, and he would definitely take care of Guan Shi.

Guan Ziyang rode on his horse and headed straight to Jiankang, which can be regarded as passing through the house without entering.

Although he really wanted to go home to visit his mother and Qing Chan, but there were so many people following him, and they were not ordinary soldiers, they were all guests of Xie's family, so he would feel at ease when he returned to Jiankang as soon as possible.

Xie Daoyun's internal injuries have not healed yet, so he has to quickly invite this great god back to Xie's house!

I don't know if General Xie Yixie will take his anger out on me.

It would be better for Xie Daoyun to hide it better, and no one will find out that he sneaked out to sneak into the Zhongyong Army.

Entering Shu is difficult, leaving Shu is easy.

When they arrived at Baidi City, they ordered the soldiers to collect local materials and make bamboo rafts by themselves.

If you go down the river, you can reach Jiangling in a few days. Now that Huanwen's army is heading east, it is near Jiangling. Guan Ziyang naturally doesn't want to have too much contact with him now.

So they didn't stay in Jiangling, but just found an open space in the wild to set up camp, had a quick rest for one night, set off early the next morning, and returned to Jiankang in the afternoon.

When they arrived in Jiankang, Xie Yi was already waiting on the pier.

"Ziyang has made a great contribution, quickly follow me into the palace to face the saint!"

Xie Daoyun covered her face with her sleeve and hid in the Zhongyong army, but she was not found.

In the Taiji Hall of Xianyang Palace.

Chu Suanzi was very happy, and praised Guan Ziyang's initiative to invite Ying to kill Xiao Jingwen.

At this time, Prime Minister Sima Yu came out and said: "The governor of Guan led the loyal and brave army to victory in the first battle. 500 people entered the city and broke through the city gate to resist tens of thousands of enemy troops.
Dudu Guan even singled out Xiao Jingwen and killed the rebel general. With such military exploits and young talents, it was really wise for the Queen Mother to regard him as the leader of Zhongshan Yaji! "

Guan Ziyang boasted, and he didn't forget to flatter the queen mother for a while, Guan Ziyang secretly thought that Sima Yu had a good trick.

Yu Xi also said: "Empress Dowager, since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, I have had very few military exploits. I ask the Empress Dowager to reward Guan Dudu."

Chu Suanzi nodded: "That's right, Aiqing is already a first-rank official at the age of 16, what kind of reward does Aiqing want?"

The queen mother's rewards are generally direct rewards, so there is no way to ask the courtiers what rewards they want.

Guan Ziyang thought: "I'm afraid the Queen Mother doesn't know what to reward me for!"

As a commoner family, the noble title of the prince and son-in-law is definitely not acceptable, and it seems vulgar to reward gold, silver and treasures.

The Empress Dowager was in trouble, so she simply asked Guan Ziyang to ask for a reward. It would be better to say that it is his duty to serve the court, and he does not ask for a reward.

The queen mother made a wishful thinking, but Guan Ziyang did not accept the move.

"I report to the Empress Dowager, this time when Xiao Jingwen was conquered, the loyal and brave army entered the city alone and fought desperately. I don't ask for rewards, but I ask the Empress Dowager to reward the Zhongyong Army."

The queen mother said: "Oh? I don't know what reward Aiqing wants for the loyal army?"

"Back to the Empress Dowager, the Zhongyong Army were all born as disciples and had no family background. I want to ask the Empress Dowager to include them in the Baiji, which is to join our Beifu Army."

Baiji is also a common nationality, and Guan Ziyangkong is the governor of the Beifu army, and he doesn't have a single soldier under his command, so this request is not too much.

The Queen Mother agreed without hesitation.

"Guan Dudu, you are already a Baiji, so what reward do you want?"

The queen mother was also worried. If Guan Ziyang wanted her to include their Fuling Guan family in the Huang Ji, that is, be promoted to a noble family, she would not be able to refuse.

But no one in their family is descended by blood. If this starts, the gentry in the world will have to turn against it?
Guan Ziyang is also very knowledgeable: "After returning to the Empress Dowager, I have lived in Jiankang for a long time and have been renting a house. If possible, I would like to ask the Empress Dowager to reward me with a piece of land. I want to build a mansion so that I can settle down."

The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief, it was simple.

"Which piece of land does Aiqing like, just report it. No matter who it belongs to, the Ai family will personally come forward to buy it, and you will pay the money from the treasury."

"Thank you Queen Mother Long."

Guan Ziyang was secretly happy, he only asked for a piece of land, but he didn't say the size, the Queen Mother said in a golden voice, he started a little bit like a lion, I believe she would not be embarrassed to refuse.

Then there was another feast of singing and dancing to celebrate Jin's rare victory, and it wasn't from Huan Wen's hand.

Although the officials looked down on Guan Ziyang, a commoner family, they regarded him as a chess piece for the queen mother to subdue the refugees and establish the Beifu army, but on the surface they still had to cooperate with his family in acting and congratulated Guan Ziyang frequently.

After the banquet, Guan Ziyang and Xie Yi went directly back to Xie's old house in Wuyi Lane.

After all, the Zhongyongjun is still from the Xie family.

Now that Guan Ziyang made his own claim and let them enter the Bai nationality, it was the Xie family who suffered.

These retainers are all the private property of Xie's family who spent money.

So Guan Ziyang had to give the Xie family an explanation.
