Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 674
The water runs dry in winter, but there is no fear of the river running dry.It's just that the river is windy and the tide is cold, and boats and boats come and go, and there are many thin ices on the ship's sides and decks. Compared with summer, when the water is abundant and the river is wide, the cool breeze is not the same.

Of course, if it is a long-distance journey, the waterway is still much more convenient than the tortuous and bumpy land road after all.

Several big ships came slowly from the west of Stone City. The long-standing ice shells on the roof of the deck cabins were shining in the sun, like glazed tiles. It can be seen that these ships all came from afar.And the flags and streamers hanging on the boat also showed their origin, which is Wuchang, where Jingzhou Town is today.

The water gate of Stone City is still busy, and the east-west freight ships have not declined due to the seasons. Instead, they have become busy with the loosening of the control of the Dajiang waterway and the approaching of the New Year.

The few boats from Jingzhou were not in the long line of boats outside the water gate. A light boat carried the Jingzhou military flag and went straight into the stone city. After a while, the water fence on the other side of the water gate was opened, and there were guards from the stone city. The pawns led the ship into another waterway and went straight to the pier.

On the deck of one of these ships, there were more than a dozen strong soldiers guarding two people. The middle-aged man on the left was Tao Bin, the son of Taiwei Tao Kan who was the governor of Jingjiang Liangzhou at that time.

Coming to Jiankang again, Tao Bin continued to be interested, pointing to the bustling West Market not far from the water gate and said with a smile: "Now the most prosperous place in the capital, the West Market is the most popular place, and it is known as the top of Jiangzuo's things. Jingzhou is nothing more than a few kinds of goods, and the number of people entering and exiting is a bit dense, which is quite strange. This time I am entering the capital, and I will invite Brother Wei Changxian to take a closer look at it for a few days after I have been busy with official duties."

The man standing next to Tao Bin stood in the middle of the year, his appearance was not surprising, but his body was burly, covered in light armor, with a long sword hanging from his waist, and he had a strong martial spirit in his eyes.

Hearing Tao Bin's words, the man leaned forward and smiled and said, "Jingzhou divides Shanxi into the most important, Tao Gong's prestige is added to the sea, the town is strong in the land, the benevolence governs the small people, the natural scholars are safe and peaceful, and the township is long and prosperous. Brother has been taught for a long time, and the family A leader, the prosperity of the worldly eyes is naturally difficult to satisfy the heart."

When Tao Bin heard this, he raised his head and laughed, partly because of the flattering words, partly because of his humble attitude.He raised his hand and patted the person on the shoulder heavily. The overly intimate gesture made the person's expression a little unnatural, and he immediately smiled more eagerly.

"Although there are many brothers in the family, I am not exaggerating. When it comes to wandering around in the capital, I have nothing to do with it. I know that you are from your noble family. You have great expectations when you enter the capital this time. After entering the capital, I will try my best to introduce you, and this will surely happen!"

When Tao Bin spoke up to this point, there was a bit of undisguised flamboyance in his words.

And when the man heard this, he was also in high spirits, and he held Tao Bin's wrist with his backhand, and said with emotion: "How can I dare to have great hopes after I live in exile. The only thing that matters is the honor and disgrace of the relatives of the family. I dare not forget it. If you can With the help of Tao Shixiong to facilitate this matter, repeat the family reputation in Jiangdong, no matter what the situation is in the future, if Shixiong is in trouble, he will give his life to help with all his strength!"

After Tao Bin heard the words, his smile couldn't help but became more cheerful, and he patted his chest repeatedly to reassure him.

The ship was docked at the pier, and the soldiers came to report that it was inconvenient to enter the city at the moment. After hearing this, Tao Bin's expression was a little displeased, but the city is not located in Jingzhou where he can dominate, and he just asked people to disembark to beg for good food and wine And a beautiful actor, before entering the city, he wants to have a drink with the person around him.As for entering the city later, you can't be so unrestrained, you need to restrain yourself.

Apart from Tao Bin, there are several other Jingzhou generals and officials on this boat, but Tao Bin treats this person with the most courtesy, just because this person's status is too special.

This person is now temporarily serving as a supervisor in the Jingzhou Army, compared to the old homes of many veterans in Jingzhou, it is not worth mentioning at all.However, if you talk about his origin, it is really incredible. His surname is Sima.
This Sima Xun was not an old man from Jingzhou, but when Xiangyang was recaptured not long ago, he led hundreds of villagers to vote.According to his native place and background, Xuanzu was Sima Xun, younger brother of Sima Yi, king of Xuan, grandson of Sima Sui, king of Jinan, and son of Sima Kuan, prefect of Lueyang. Because of the turmoil in Yongjia, Emperor Min went to disaster and lost Guanzhong. .It was not until King Master Jingzhou broke through Xiangyang that he had the opportunity to join Master Wang.

With such an unusual life experience, Li Yang, Huan Xuan and others on the front line in Xiangyang naturally did not dare to neglect, and immediately sent people to escort Sima Xun to Wuchang, the back town.After Tao Kan learned of this, he didn't dare to take it lightly, so he sent Chu Jiye, the prefect of Wuchang, to meet him in person and asked about many old things about China and North Korea.

But after all, Guanzhong has been ravaged by Hu people for a long time, and many old things in China and North Korea are hard to find in the classics. Although there are no loopholes in this person's one-sided remarks, Tao Kan dare not regard him as the emperor's clan, so he just gave it to Sima. Xun was suspended for a supervisory post, and with the team sent to Jiankang this time to report victory in Jingzhou's entry into the capital, those aristocratic families in the capital will verify whether it is true or not.

For this suspected clan that suddenly appeared, everyone else in Jingzhou kept a respectful distance, not lacking in caution.But Tao Bin didn't have much scruples, he had a close relationship with Sima Xun when he was in Wuchang, he was not arranged for this victory, and he tried his best to get along with him, intending to help Sima Xun.

The reason why he is so enthusiastic is not that Tao Bin can confirm the authenticity of Sima Xun's identity, but that he understands the importance of cooking cold stoves.The last time he entered the capital, he saw with his own eyes his nephew Tao Hong roaming around the rich and powerful families in the capital, and even his elder was ignored.

In the final analysis, it was nothing but Tao Hong's good luck, and it was a good idea to form a commoner with the son-in-law of the Shen family. As the Shen family became more powerful in the current situation, even Tao Hong's situation improved, and his father Tao Kan was very close and valued. .It even caused rumors in Jingzhou that the son-in-law of the Shen family wanted to help Tao Hong to inherit the family from another generation!
Tao Bin scoffed at such rumors. Although his family is not a world-renowned family, there is still a pedigree to trace, especially when his father was very powerful and half-ruled Jiangdong. No guarantee, make such an arrangement that goes against etiquette and ethics!
But from this point, Tao Bin also realized the importance of making friends with wealthy families.Still taking Tao Hong as an example, although it is impossible to inherit the title of Duke of Shajun from his parent, but with the help of Shen's son-in-law, once the funeral is over, he will not worry about his way out.

Tao Bin often travels to and from the capital, and his eyesight is much more flexible than that of his concubine brothers. As his father gets older, the issue of succession is becoming clearer and clearer, and the most likely succession will be the eldest.Now there are more than a dozen brothers in his family. Although Tao Bin has been loved by his father in recent years, he actually has no advantage. It is better to take advantage of his father's power to recruit foreign aid and seek other things.

However, the Tao family's family is like this, it is extremely lucky to be like Tao Hong, no one would have thought that a mere Wuzhong noble family in the Shen family could climb to the current position.But other than that, what kind of aristocratic family is willing to make friends with his family?
So this sudden appearance of Sima Xun, a son of the clan, became Tao Bin's eye-catching befriending partner.Although he didn't read classics and history, he didn't know how Lu Buwei became famous all over the world, but his nephew Tao Hong's good luck was vividly remembered.

This Sima Xun has no roots in Jiangdong, and even doubts about his background, so he is in an embarrassing situation.But if the birth in the future is confirmed, the situation will immediately change drastically.At that time, with him, Tao Bin, how could he be lucky enough to make friends with such people!

Whether Sima Xun's identity is true or false, there are only two possibilities.For Tao Bin, how to choose is already very clear.One must know that a false identity, especially a false identity of the clan, if it is false, then this person's life will be ruined, at least in this Jiangdong land, once exposed, his life will be lost.

After some contact, Tao Bin discovered that Sima Xun was not an arrogant person, especially though he had been living in the Hu tribe for a long time, his elegant conversation was not inferior to those from the Duzhong family.This made Tao Bin more convinced of his identity, so he spared no effort to make friends.

There are not many clans in Jiangdong now, and Sima Xun is indeed a man of bravery. Once his identity is confirmed, he can imagine that he will be of great use in the future.If there is such a strong support in the future, even if Tao Bin can't fight for an heir, it will not be difficult to support him.

So this time when he entered the capital, Tao Bin made up his mind to do his best to help Sima Xun, and at the same time use Sima Xun's identity to win visits to more powerful families.

This time he followed the Jingzhou Baojie Team, his old father revived the survivors and led the troops to recover Xiangyang. Such a great achievement, his father's title is unsealable, and Taichung is very likely to choose their brothers in the family. MG, this is Tao Bin's biggest pursuit in entering the capital this time.

After returning to the cabin, Tao Bin invited Sima Xun to sit at the same table without presumptuousness of his current position.Not long after, the guards of Stone City brought food and wine, Tao Bin was a little displeased and reprimanded him because there were no good tricks to serve them.

Naturally, those ordinary soldiers did not dare to argue with these Fangzhen titans, so they hurriedly explained.One is that the military equipment in Stone City is forbidden to do women's music, and they dare not set it up privately.The two have recently spread good news in Jiangbei, and now they are both in the city to celebrate, and the common people are happy, even the boat girls who used to hang around in the vicinity were recruited by various families in the city to celebrate, so they disappeared.

After Tao Bin heard this, his anger subsided a little, and Sima Xun beside him also said with a smile: "Prostitutes and the like are just a common pastime. This time, brother, he went down the river with the victory, and he will be famous all over the world in the future. Everyone is competing for luck, so why worry about not being able to have fun, but there is no need to be in a hurry."

Tao Bin couldn't help but smile even more when he heard the words, because the soldier praised Jiangbei's master for his strength, he directly tore off the ring around his waist and threw it down as a reward. He stroked his short beard and said with a smile: "You are all ordinary people, how do you know that?" It is very difficult for the master of the outer town to ask for an entry. But this time Jingzhou's victory is indeed a brawny force to be praised. No wonder you poor little soldiers know how to have fun together. It can be seen that you are also loyal and obedient people under the king's teaching. It's also worth it."

The soldier was all smiles after he got the reward, but he couldn't help being stunned when he heard Tao Bin's words: "Jingzhou also has meritorious deeds? Now everyone is happy, but they are all talking about the victorious son-in-law Shenhou Zhuangwu, who keeps passing the news and recovers within a few months." Thousands of miles away!"

　As the year approaches, there are too many chores. . .There may only be one update today, so I would like to apologize to everyone. . .As for Sima Xun’s Encyclopedia, it is said that he came from the south in 331, but now it is taking the recovery of Xiangyang as an opportunity, so there is not much research on the details, after all, they are relatively unfamiliar
