Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 784 Mr. Zhao and General Mu

There is still singing and dancing in the capital. The events of the Marquis of Jing'an have not affected the people in the capital to celebrate the New Year. What happened in the southwest has not been made public in the capital. While the people of the imperial capital are still happily celebrating the New Year, the southern Xinjiang has already grown. Change.

The Hanzhou army wanted to control the southwest, so Jincheng, which is the hinterland of the southwest and the core of the southwest, was the first to be attacked by the Hanzhou army. The last time Pei Jin attacked the city, part of the troops he brought were the garrison of Jincheng. The city garrison suffered heavy casualties and could not possibly be an opponent of the Hanzhou army.

Originally, they could still rely on Jincheng's strong city to garrison, but unfortunately, with such an unreasonable thing as Tianlei, Jincheng's city gate was useless. rushed in.

On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, the Hanzhou army had fully occupied Jincheng. General Mu led his old father and entered Jincheng from Hanzhou. When walking on the main road of Jincheng, Mu Ying smiled at his father Mu Qing. He said, "How does your father feel when he returns to his homeland?"

When Chenghan was still alive, Jincheng was the capital of Chenghan. It was called Handu at that time. The Mu family, the core of Chenghan, naturally lived in Jincheng. When the family escaped from Jincheng, Mu Qing was still a teenager. In a blink of an eye, more than 40 years later, Mu Qing had grown into an old man with gray hair and beard.

  The old man was walking on the main road of Jincheng, looking left and right from time to time, and then slowly sighed: "It's been more than 40 years since I came back, and I don't even know Handu anymore."

   Having said this, he shook his head.

   "It's a pity that Mr. Li Fu is gone. Otherwise, if you support him and come out, Chenghan will really return to his country."

   Li Fu is Li Xing's younger brother. He was forcibly sent by Li Xing to the capital to assassinate the emperor, but he was defeated and fled to Datongfang, where he was killed by Li Xin himself.

   Today's Mu Ying is not an adult Han, and basically has no feelings for his motherland, but Mu Qing grew up in Han Capital, and he more or less wants to really rebuild into a Han.

   is to tear off Li Xin's control and truly restore the former Chenghan.

Mu Ying supported her father and shook her head slightly: "Father, what kind of virtue are Li Xing and Li Fu brothers, you see them growing up, you know better than your son, now Chenghan has been destroyed for more than 40 years, forty Over the years, the bones will be eroded into dust, and it is impossible to restore the old view."

   General Mu was outspoken.

   "Chenghan has passed."

   Mu Qing frowned slightly, but still sighed: "Because my father knows this, I just sighed a little about my motherland. The world is now the world of your generation and Li Houye, and my father will not participate."

   Said, the old man walked towards the former Pingnan General's Mansion, which was the Mu family's ancestral residence, Mu Ying shook his head and turned his eyes to look at the former Chenghan Palace.

  This Chenghan Palace has not been inhabited for more than 40 years. Ji Ku, the former defunct prince, lived for a short period of more than a year, and then the palace was locked again.

   Mu Ying waved his hand and instructed his servants: "Give you ten days, and clean up the royal city within ten days."

   At this time, the Hanzhou army was in high spirits because of the capture of Jincheng. Every soldier was full of energy. After hearing Mu Ying's words, he immediately responded loudly.

   Muying glanced at the tall Chenghan Imperial City again, turned and left.

  On the third day after Mu Ying entered Jincheng, the envoy sent by the imperial court to the southwest finally arrived at Jincheng and asked to meet Muying.

The great change in the southwest, the emperor will definitely send someone to quell this matter. According to reason, the best candidate should be Li Xin. After all, Li Xin has a great influence in the southwest, but he is afraid that Li Xin will never return. ”, so we can only choose a suitable candidate from the side to negotiate with Mu Ying in the southwest.

   This person set off on the first day of the new year, hurriedly hurried, and finally arrived in the southwest within ten days.

   However, General Mu did not immediately "receive" these imperial envoys.

After he found out, he simply arranged a place for these court envoys to live. Then he himself rode a horse and took dozens of people out of the city for ten miles. After waiting for more than an hour under the ten-mile pavilion, he finally arrived on the official road. A very inconspicuous carriage.

  The carriage swayed and swayed, and finally arrived at Shili Pavilion.

  Mu Yingshi smiled, greeted him, and smiled at the carriage: "Mr. Zhao is here."

Mu Ying is now the de facto controller of the Southwest. In terms of sphere of influence, he has already surpassed Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan. In this area of ​​the Southwest, he is a veritable King of the Southwest, but he still gives his own to this carriage. the greatest respect.

  In the carriage, a middle-aged scholar dressed in white slowly stepped out of the carriage. He bowed his head and saluted Mu Ying.

   "General Mu is very polite."

In the third year of Taikang, after Li Xin finished fighting the Pingnan Army, he left for Beijing, but at that time he left Zhao Jia in the southwest. The ending, this ending took five years, and he did not return to the capital until the eighth year of Taikang.

   In five years, he and Mu Ying can be said to be very familiar.

   Muying grinned at Zhao Jia.

   "When my husband left last year, I said that it would be better for him to stay in the southwest. Now, in less than a year, he has returned to the land in the southwest."

Zhao Jia took his wife and child off the carriage and said with a smile, "Don't hide it from General Mu, I left the southwest last year, and I thought I might never come back in my life. I didn't expect to be with Mu so soon. It may be fate that the generals meet."

Zhao Jia is not inferior to Li Xin in terms of brains, and even better than Li Xin. In the past five years in the Southwest, he has arranged the Southwest and Hanzhou in an orderly manner. Mu Ying has always admired him very much. Saluting, he smiled and said, "This is the fate of Mr. and Southwest. Maybe Mr. will be inseparable from Southwest in this life."

   Zhao Jia shook his head slightly, disapproving of this sentence, but he came to the southwest for business. After a few greetings, he immediately asked, "Has the imperial court's messenger arrived?"

"arrive."

  Mu Ying grinned: "But I ignored them. I knew that Mr. was coming, and I would make up my mind after Mr. came."

  Mu Ying looks like a careless and rough person on the surface, but in fact he is very careful. For example, he handles the relationship with Li Xin very well.

   He knew that Zhao Jia was sent by Li Xin, so he simply started to delegate power.

   Zhao Jia was stunned for a while, and then smiled bitterly: "General Mu doesn't have to do this, I'm just here to give you advice. How to do it depends on General Mu himself."

   "Sir, just come up with an idea."

   Muying smiled and said, "I just listened to it all."

   The two walked towards Jincheng while talking. After Mu Ying briefly explained the current situation in the southwest to Zhao Jia, Zhao Jia nodded and spoke slowly.

   "People from the imperial court should leave them aside and leave them alone. What General Mu has to do now is to take down Jianmenguan as soon as possible, so that Southwest can really have room for negotiation with the imperial court!"

  Mu black face smiled.

   "Mr.'s thoughts coincide with mine. It seems that Mu Ying is not that stupid."

   Zhao Jia turned her head and took a serious look at Mu Ying.

   "General Mu is not stupid at all, he is a rare smart person."
