After Ge Shuhan led his troops away, Shen Tian ordered the bandits to be surrounded.

The bandits also saw the situation clearly at this time. No matter their number or fighting quality, they could not compare with the Anxi Army of the Tang Dynasty. They simply threw away their weapons and sat on the ground with their heads in their hands, looking like they were just having fun.

Shen Tian frowned and looked at the hundreds of people in front of him. Before encircling and annihilating the bandits, he received two orders from Gu Qing. One was to annihilate all the bandits without leaving any prisoners. The other was to pay attention to the nine surnames of Zhaowu. If anyone with the nine surnames of Zhaowu was there, Among them, he was captured alive.

"Are there any of you with the nine surnames of Zhaowu?" Shen Tian asked in a deep voice.

No one said a word among the bandits.

"Are there any people with the nine surnames of Zhaowu? If not, kill them all." Shen Tian asked again.

As soon as he heard that they were all killed, several of the bandits stood up and looked at him timidly with trembling legs.

Shen Tian frowned: "Are you from the Zhaowu Jiu family?"

A young man in his twenties said: "Yes, General, please spare my life..."

Shen Tian didn't understand why Gu Qing wanted to save the lives of the people with the nine surnames of Zhaowu. He was a typical soldier. Soldiers only know how to obey military orders.

So Shen Tian waved his hand, and his personal guards stepped forward and pulled out the nine people named Zhaowu from the crowd of bandits. Looking at the remaining bandits, Shen Tian said coldly: "Kill them all, leaving no one behind."

The swords and halberds all came out, and blood splattered everywhere.

Shen Tian led the people with the nine surnames of Zhaowu away without looking back.

…………

Kucha City.

A caravan of about fifty people led camels and walked leisurely into the city gate.

A young man in his twenties looked around curiously and said excitedly: "Uncle, we have arrived at Kucha City, Brother Gu's Kucha City!"

A tough middle-aged man in his forties scolded: "Don't talk nonsense! What's called 'Brother Gu's Kucha City' is the Kucha City of the imperial court! Trouble comes from the mouth. Don't cause trouble for Brother Gu." .”

The young man chuckled.

This caravan came from Shiqiao Village. When Gu Qing ordered the establishment of a market, Li Sima left four shops with the best locations in the porcelain market, which were prepared for the villagers of Shiqiao Village.

After receiving Gu Qing's letter, Feng Aweng asked the whole village to burn the kiln day and night, and built two more kiln mouths. After several months, he finally produced a large number of new porcelain with good quality. Finally, Feng Aweng organized the village workers to make the porcelain. They were sent out of the mountains, formed a caravan in Shuzhou, and traveled across the desert for more than two months before arriving at Kucha.

The middle-aged man who led the team was also named Feng. His name was Feng Shu, and he was Feng Aweng's nephew. The young man's name was Wei Can. When Gu Qing started the school, how many days had Wei Shen studied? After all, he was not good at studying, so Feng Aweng had to let him study. Working at the entrance of the kiln, practicing with other teenagers on weekdays to practice martial arts.

Feng Shu and Wei Shen led the caravan into the city. Walking on the crowded street, Wei Shen praised: "I didn't expect that the border city outside the pass could be so prosperous, uncle? This is even more prosperous than our Qingcheng County. .”

Feng Shu chuckled and said: "Huaiyu wrote from Chang'an and said that Lord Gu did a good job in Kucha City. Originally, Kucha was just a desolate border town. After Lord Gu arrived, he made great efforts to expand the city and build the city. He issued many new policies? Kucha The city has become what it is today.”

"Brother Gu is really not a thing in the pond. Fortunately, he came out of Shiqiao Village. Otherwise, he would have wasted all his abilities. Wei Shen, do you want to learn more from Mr. Gu? A little knowledge is enough. You will be rich and prosperous throughout your life."

Wei Shen smiled and said: "I can't even read? I will probably just have a hard life in this life. I can only count on my son."

The caravan was walking on the street? But they didn't know where to look for Gu Qing. Feng Shu hesitated a little and stood hesitant.

Not far from the intersection is the Fuzhi Inn? Huangfu Sisi sat bored by the door, chewing the dried fruits that the Hu merchants from the Western Regions had graciously sent. When he saw a caravan of fifty people stopped motionless in the middle of the road,

Huangfu Sisi observed for a while and then said loudly: "Hey, you guys, what about you! Don't stop in the middle of the road. If you are seen by the unity soldiers patrolling the street, you will inevitably be reprimanded."

Feng Shu and others hurriedly got out of the way, and everyone led their camels to the side of the road.

When Feng Shu saw someone talking to them, he stepped forward with a smile, bowed, and said, "Girl, I'm sorry to bother you. The old man wants to ask you about someone..."

Huangfu Sisi smiled and said: "Tell me, I know most of the people who have lived in Qiuci City for a long time. Who are you asking about?"

Feng Shu hesitated for a moment and said: "Does the girl know Gu Qing? He is... uh, deputy envoy of Jiedu, or a marquis. I heard that he is in Qiuci City."

Huangfu Sisi's eyes lit up, then he looked at Feng Shu seriously, and asked without answering: "This elder, who are you from Gu Qing?"

Feng Shu seemed to have something interesting when he heard it, and hurriedly said: "The old man is a fellow villager of Gu Qing. It is he who wrote our caravan to ask us to come. We will do business in Qiuci City in the future."

Huangfu Sisi understood immediately and said more politely: "Master Gu is not in the city. He usually lives in the commander's tent in the garrison camp outside the city. No ordinary people are allowed to enter the camp. If the elders don't mind, you might as well come to concubine."

I will rest and have a meal in my own shop. I will stop for a while and send a waiter to the camp to report to Lord Gu. The Lord will definitely come as soon as possible after hearing the news."

Feng Shu thanked him hurriedly, then hesitantly glanced at the inn and said hesitantly: "There are about fifty of us, how much money does it cost to eat? The girl's shop doesn't look cheap..."

Huangfu Sisi smiled sweetly and said: "I don't want any money. I won't hide it from the elders. I am friends with Mr. Gu, and Mr. Gu often comes to my restaurant to eat. He has never given me any money, but he still wants me to give him some money...

"

Feng Shu said in surprise: "Ah? Gu Qing... doesn't look like a freeloader. How could he be like this? Don't worry, girl, I will definitely teach him a lesson when I see Gu Qing. Although he is now a high-ranking official,

But you have to call me uncle in the village..."

Huangfu Sisi changed her tune and said with a smile: "Uncle, please don't be annoyed. It's all about money. I'm playing around with Gu Qing. Friends don't care about this. Mr. Hou also helps me a lot on weekdays.

It is already an honor for me to eat in my little shop."

Feng Shu seemed to have noticed something and took a serious look at her. Seeing her hibiscus and jade face, as charming as a flower, his heart tightened and he asked tentatively: "Girl and Gu Qing...are they just friends?"

Huangfu Sisi smiled and said, "We are friends."

Feng Shu nodded and smiled, his smile was simple and harmless, like an old farmer who had never seen the world.

"Hello friends, haha, maybe Gu Qing's fiancée will come here soon. Miss Huaiyu is a good girl who is as good as any man. You and Huaiyu will definitely become friends."

Huangfu Sisi's expression suddenly changed, and then he felt sad.

What kind of charm does this woman named Huaiyu have? Last time, the two fellow villagers pointedly told her that Huaiyu was Gu Qing's fiancée. Today, a fellow villager came and told her the same thing, although they didn't say it directly.

, but Huangfu Sisi could see how protective Gu Qing and other fellow villagers were towards Huaiyu. They were afraid that someone would take the position of Huaiyu's fiancée, so they formed a protective circle to protect this woman.

So, how deep is Gu Qing's love for Huaiyu?

In the evening, Gu Qing hurriedly came to the inn from the camp outside the city.

Gu Qing was extremely happy to see Feng Shu and Wei Shen. The three of them gathered together and said goodbye after a happy reunion.

Huangfu Sisi worked diligently and cooked for everyone. The camels outside the door were also fed by waiters carrying fine fodder.

"Uncle Feng, you can stay here with peace of mind when you come. I have given you four shops in the best locations in Qiuci City. From now on, apart from some of the porcelain produced in the village, it will be sent to Chang'an Xingqing Palace as tribute, and the rest will be at least

Half of it has to be shipped to Kucha City. The profit from selling porcelain here is two or three times higher than in Datang Pass, which is a huge profit."

Feng Shu nodded and smiled: "Since I'm here, I will naturally follow your arrangements. I heard that you did a good job in Anxi. I listened to the guests at the inn talking about Qiuci City, and they mentioned you in and out of their words, Gu Qing,

You have great abilities."

Glancing at Huangfu Sisi who was busy behind the front hall, Feng Shu pursed his lips and said, "Where did that girl come from? We are more than just friends with you, right?"

Gu Qing said seriously: "Of course it's more than just friends."

"Oh? She is yours..."

"She is a creditor, a cook, and a aunt in the cafeteria, so she cannot be offended. If she offends the aunt, her hands will shake when she is making meals."

Feng Shu chuckled and said: "You, you are already a Marquis, why do you still speak so informally? Just like in the village, you should be more dignified as an official and don't lose official etiquette."

Then Feng Shu said seriously: "No matter what your relationship is with her, don't forget Miss Huaiyu, she is your legitimate wife. I know it doesn't matter how many concubines you officials take, but Miss Huaiyu must be a legitimate wife."

"Honey, if you become a thin lover, the whole village, old and young, will point their fingers at you and scold you."

Gu Qing sighed: "Uncle, don't worry, my wife must be Huaiyu, and it can't be someone else. When this matter is over, I will..."

Halfway through his words, Gu Qing couldn't continue.

"What happened here is over", how can it be done about here?

An Lushan was about to rebel, and the world was in chaos. Gu Qing was bound to lead an army to conquer the world. It was not easy for him to even meet Zhang Huaiyu, and it was extremely difficult to get married.

…………

Chang'an City, Yang Guozhong's Residence.

After Yang Guozhong became the Right Prime Minister, the atmosphere in the court changed drastically.

In the past, when Li Linfu was in power, all court affairs were discussed with ministers. But when Yang Guozhong came here, he had all the power and rarely had the habit of discussing with others. Even the left prime minister Chen Xilie and Yang Guozhong didn't give much face.

Once, when they were discussing the list of officials to fill vacancies in the DPRK and China, Chen Xilie had just put on the posture of deliberation. Unexpectedly, Yang Guozhong glanced at the list and said, "Both ministers on the left and right are here, and they are also there when it comes to the matter. Let this matter be considered a thing of the past."

, after speaking, Yang Guozhong randomly arranged the list according to seniority, and in less than a stick of incense, he decided on the list of officials.

Chen Xilie was so angry that he was speechless for a long time.

Such a hasty behavior shows how stupid and mentally retarded he is.
