The Best Fake Eunuch

"Cong Shu, Tianlong, I will not force you on this matter. If you want, we will revitalize Yanyun County together, so that the common people can live a good life. If you don't want to, I understand. You can leave at any time. Anywhere is fine, and I will give you a sum of money that is enough to settle down." Xiao Chen was always straightforward when talking to his own people.

"Boss, this is not just casually. When we were in Jiuxi City, he also told us the same thing. We don't want to leave, and he is not willing...so you don't have to worry about him going back on his word. Boss is not a good person. , but it will never lie to anyone...except for outsiders." Ye Baiqing said.

"Boss, Congshu thinks that since the emperor called you back, you have to go back." Liu Congshu has already expressed his attitude in one sentence.

"Oh? Why?" Xiao Chen asked.

"Because we can't openly rebel yet." Liu Congshu either didn't speak, or shocked everyone when he spoke.

"Nonsense, who said we are going to rebel?" Chen Jisheng stroked his beard and smiled, "Continue talking."

"If the boss doesn't go back, he will openly resist the decree, which is tantamount to rebellion! Even if the emperor can't mobilize the army to come and suppress it now, if he blocks Yanyun Pass and all the sea transportation channels, then our exchange with Beijiang What else to do? Once we lose our trust in the tribes in the northern borders and war breaks out, we will face enemies from the north and the south, and we will surely die."

Speak clearly and clearly.

Moreover, with Xiao Chen's current strength, he doesn't need to wait for the northern Xinjiang tribes to attack, and Li Wanjiang doesn't need to send any troops from other places. As long as the tens of thousands of troops from Yanyun Pass and Wolong Pass are dispatched, he can't handle it.

Therefore, regardless of the north and the south, they cannot be openly hostile to it at present, and can only deal skillfully between the two sides, so that they can temporarily survive in the cracks.

"But what if, as Bai Qing said, the boss is detained by Li Wanjiang when he goes back, what if another governor is sent?" Lin Yue asked.

"Hehe, besides our boss, who can control the current situation in Yanyun County? Not to mention sending a governor, even if the emperor comes in person, it's useless." Liu Cong said.

"Then what if he kills the boss directly?" Lin Yue asked again.

This is what everyone is most worried about.

"If you kill the boss, Yan Yun will surely perish, and this time, no one can save you! Wanyan Pingqiu and Queen Moluo are both heroes for a while, how can you just sit back and watch the changes? I'm afraid that once the boss dies, their combined The army will gather and go south immediately! Completely occupy the entire Yanyun County." Liu Congshu was quite clear about the situation.

The reason why Wanyan Pingqiu and other tribes in northern Xinjiang formed an alliance with Xiao Chen is to use Yanyun County as a buffer, and then through the mutual market, to solve the current crisis of their tribes, and gradually develop and strengthen their own strength.

In other words, they have already bet all on Xiao Chen.

So once Xiao Chen died, they would go south without hesitation!

And this time, they are famous because they have made a life-and-death covenant with Xiao Chen.

If you dare to kill my brother, you must do it.

They are not fighting alone, don't forget that there are also Zhuge Xiaosheng, Li Tanhua and the others. Once Xiao Chen dies, they will immediately turn against each other and join forces with the northern Xinjiang tribes to deal with Da Zhou.

Regardless of success or failure, Li Wanjiang will be hit hard!

If Li Wanjiang is a smart person, he should not act recklessly.

But what if he lost his mind and went crazy, and he wanted to kill the boss no matter what happened?

Then it depends on the boss's own ability...and luck.

Boss luck is always good, right?

"Oh, I didn't see it, Cong Shu, you really have the potential to rebel without saying a word." Ye Baiqing laughed.

"Leopards come out of languid people." Lin Yue nodded in agreement, and he hadn't noticed it before.

"Well, I said that Cong Shu is a talented person, right?" Chen Jisheng expressed his relief, the old man would not misjudge someone!

"Bai Qing, you draw up a memorial to reply to the emperor and his old man, saying that I suddenly fell ill and was bedridden, so I can't go back for the time being... But as long as I can barely get out of bed, I will go back immediately!" Xiao Chen had already decided to go back Now, but not now.

"Then our emperor is afraid that Long Yan will be furious." Ye Baiqing laughed.

"Is he dead or not!" Now Xiao Chen can openly slander Li Wanjiang, this feeling is really not too good.

Jiangdong King Li Shi also sent a secret letter, urging Xiao Chen to go back.

In addition, Zhu Xiaochuan, Wu Zicheng, Wang Anbang, Ma Mingwu, even Chen Wenqi, Lu Jing and others all wrote to him, all of which advised him to go back.

Of course, there are also some top-secret letters sent by Xiao Chen's brothers who stayed in Fengyang City and the palace, and the contents should not be published.

The brothers who bought grain from Burma also sent a message that a large amount of grain had been shipped to Minzhou County, and they were stepping up the shipment, and it would arrive soon.

But it also mentioned that the current situation in Minzhou County is tense, so the cost of hiring a boat has almost tripled!

Moreover, this grain road may not be able to pass in the future. It may be transported from the ports in Jiangnan County or Jiangdong County, but in that case the journey will be even longer, and there will be more local embezzlements and more serious losses.

That's not counting, the main reason is that there is a shortage of food in all parts of Dazhou, especially the shortage of military food. King Fengyang led an army of 100,000 to go south to Minzhou County, and they are also collecting food and grass along the way, so our food may not be able to reach Jiangnan and Jiangdong. will be intercepted.

Chen Jisheng has ordered someone to reply to the letter, asking them to suspend the purchase of grain from Myanmar. They can't spend a lot of money and give it all to Da Zhou for nothing, right?

Zhao Gongming, who is far away in central Sichuan, also sent a letter saying that several tea factories have been set up there, and when the new tea comes out next spring, it will be processed into tea bricks and shipped immediately.

Duanmu Nanfeng sent a letter saying that he had stockpiled a large amount of supplies and would continue to send them over.

Shi Mingtao also received a letter, saying that in the future, the goods would not go through Yanyun Pass, and would be shipped directly from Haining Bay. This would not only be faster, but also greatly increase the volume of goods shipped.

But all three of them expressed concern about the current situation in Yanyun County. If the emperor orders the blockade of the sea and land passages in Yanyun County, then we will not be able to transport these things no matter what.

If these materials cannot be transported, and the goods exchanged from northern Xinjiang cannot be transported, it will be very bad.

So the current situation is generally gratifying and worrying.

There is another sad thing.

After a day of meetings, Xiao Chen, who was physically and mentally exhausted, was about to fall asleep, but Duan Linger slipped in quietly, and sat on his bedside without speaking for a long time.

"Little aunt, what's wrong with you!" Xiao Chen was about to die of worry.

Please let me sleep first, will you?

Even if the sky is falling, sister, please help me up first.

"The Chief Steward sent someone to see you." Duan Ling'er said softly.

"Alas..." Xiao Chen sighed, what should come, will always come.

"It's Suzaku hall master Qian Yunfei. I said you were asleep, but he insisted on me coming, and he also said that I... Brother, I am not a little spy of Tianxuanhui, and I don't want to leave either." Duan Linger also gently sighed.

"Who told you to go?" Xiao Chen was taken aback when he heard the words, and his drowsiness disappeared.
