Newlywed Yaner, Du Qi stayed at home with Li Yanyun, half a month passed in a blink of an eye, and time entered August. Although the weather at this time is hot, it is not as unbearable as the scorching heat in June and July.
For half a month, Du Qi and Li Yanyun were like glue, and at the same time they took Qianxue away.
The two women who had been with him for several years became his women. But even so, Li Yanyun and Qianxue didn't have time to spare, and they still dealt with business handover matters.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival passed, Du Qi was ready to leave.
When Du Qi was about to leave, Mrs. Zheng came.
Mrs. Zheng entered the study, sat down and said: "Erlang, you are ready to leave. I see that Yanyun and Qianxue are making arrangements. Are they going to go to the Western Regions with you?"
"yes!"
Du Qi nodded and answered.
This was previously agreed upon.
Mrs. Zheng said: "Erlang, my mother will talk to you here, and I won't go around with you. Girls like Yanyun and Qianxue will follow you to the Western Regions, and my mother will not object."
"After all, you go to the Western Regions, not for a while, but for a long time in the Western Regions."
"You need someone who knows the hot and cold to take care of you."
"The problem is, according to the latest news from Liu Zhengxi, Longyou Dao of the Western Regions is still black-eyed, has nothing, and may even be in danger."
"When you go to the Western Regions, you don't even have a place to stay."
Mrs. Zheng said: "The current conditions are immature. My mother means to let your two daughters-in-law stay in Chang'an for the time being. When you gain a foothold in the Western Regions and have a place to settle down, it will not be too late. What do you think? "
"Can!"
Du Qilue gave an answer after thinking about it.
When Du Qi talked with Li Xiaogong earlier, he said that if the conditions are not ripe, let the two girls stay temporarily. According to the news from Liu Zhengxi, although arrangements have been made, the situation is not clear, and it will take time to gain a foothold in Jiuquan County, Suzhou.
When Mrs. Zheng heard Du Qi's words, she immediately smiled. He is very fond of Qianxue and Li Yanyun now, because the two women have had sex with Du Qi, and they might become pregnant, so it is not suitable to travel long distances, it is better to observe in Chang'an for the time being.
Even if you are not pregnant, it doesn't matter.
After all, the situation in the Western Regions is unclear.
After Mrs. Zheng left, Du Qi told Qianxue and Li Yanyun about this matter. Although the two women were reluctant to part with each other, they still agreed to stay. After all, they were not in Chang'an all the time, and they would go to Longyou Road later.
? August 18th, this morning.
Du Qi left Du's house and set off for the Western Regions. This time Du Qi went out, the team was not many, only more than 200 people. With Xiao Yuanqi as the chief general, he is responsible for protecting Du Qi's safety.
Du Qi went to Longyou Road this time, not with a mission, without the support of the court, everything had to be done by himself. Therefore, Du Qi's trip this time was not publicized with much fanfare, but he just pretended to be a caravan and went to the Western Regions.
?Leaving from Chang'an, head west all the way.
Because of the dedication to building concrete roads these years, concrete roads have been built around Chang'an, and everything went smoothly. After leaving the scope of Gyeonggi-do and entering Longyou-do, the road changed.
From a concrete road to a dirt road.
To some extent, the degree of extension of the concrete road represents Datang's control over the place. Because the Tang Dynasty was not established for a long time, many places in Longyou Dao appeared to submit to the court, but in fact they ignored the court at all.
This is the reason why the road cannot pass through.
Or, the imperial court sent officials, but they were emptied and unable to control the place for the time being.
It is a surrender in name.
Especially when entering Longyou Road, the further to the west, the more remote, and the place is extremely desolate and barren.
After all, the Western Regions are not as prosperous as the Central Plains. The more barren these places are, the more aggressive the folk customs are. This is the truth of the so-called poor mountains and bad waters.
Du Qi didn't care about the situation in Longyou Road.
This is a matter for the court.
Du Qi's mission is to bring Suzhou, Guazhou and Shazhou under his control as a foothold, and then he can expand to the Western Regions and establish his own strength.
The time has entered September.
? In the land of the Western Regions, autumn is crisp and refreshing.
The team led by Du Qi has entered the territory of Suzhou.
After nightfall, the team camped at night.
Du Qi and Liu Zhengxi sat around the bonfire. Du Qi looked at Liu Zhengxi and asked, "Mr. Liu, who are we in Jiuquan County?"?Have you arranged a place to stay? "
Liu Zhengxi said: "The arrangements have been made."
After a pause, Liu Zhengxi continued: "His Royal Highness entered Jiuquan quietly this time as a businessman. Since his identity has never been revealed, no one knows the news, so he can plan secretly."
"According to the news sent back earlier, Jiang Zhengdao, the county magistrate of Jiuquan County, is a local rich family."
"Jiang Zhengdao surrendered to the imperial court, but in Jiuquan County, Jiang Zhengdao has the final say. Even the villagers below, Li Zheng, etc., were directly or indirectly promoted by the Jiang family. It is not easy to break the situation in Jiuquan County .¡±
"The Jiang family also has enough power, so in Jiuquan County, it is not an easy task to move Jiang Zhengdao."
Liu Zhengxi talked about the situation in Jiuquan.
Du Qi thought for a while and said with a smile: "No matter what the situation in Jiuquan County is, there is always a breakthrough."
Liu Zhengxi nodded.
Although the situation in Jiuquan County is difficult, it is not an iron bucket, and it can be operated.
"Report!"
At this moment, a soldier walked up to Du Qi and reported: "Prince Pingxi, a man came from outside our camp. He was dressed in rags and was rather down and out. He said he was coming to join you."
Du Qi raised his brows, looking a little surprised.
Someone actually came to join him.
This is weird.
Du Qi thought for a while, and ordered: "Bring the person here."
"yes!"
The soldiers immediately went to deliver the order.
Not long after, I saw a young man with a thin figure, about 175 centimeters in length, ragged clothes and a dark yellow complexion, striding forward with a big gun on his back.
The young man's face was covered with wind and frost, and he was quite tired at first glance. He walked up to Du Qi's side, clasped his fists in salute and said, "Xue Rengui, a grassroots man, pay homage to King Pingxi."
When Du Qi heard Xue Rengui's name, he immediately said, "Are you Xue Rengui from Longmen County, Jiangzhou?"
"yes!"
Xue Rengui replied immediately.
He was even more surprised in his heart, how did Du Qi know his native place, but Xue Rengui didn't ask, because he didn't dare to ask casually, but he was just a little confused.
Du Qi showed a smile on his face, the person who came was really Xue Rengui in history. Xue Rengui's ancestor was also from a wealthy family, but his family was in decline. When he came to him, he made a living by farming, but his martial arts and reading by himself never fell behind.
Later, Xue Rengui joined the army and entered Zhang Shigui's command, and was able to rise steadily.
Now, here comes Du Qi.
Du Qi said: "Xue Rengui, isn't it? Judging by your appearance, you must have traveled a long distance to eat and sleep in the open. You came to see this king, what's the matter?"
Xue Rengui clasped his fists and said, "Report to King Pingxi, I have come to join King Pingxi."
"Go to me?"
Du Qi's expression was even more surprised.
He had already arrived in Suzhou, not far from Jiuquan County, when Xue Rengui suddenly appeared and defected. Xue Rengui's surrender was originally a good thing, but Du Qi had to figure it out.
Xue Rengui explained: "Reporting to King Pingxi, I really came to join you. This year, I went to Chang'an to discuss life and planned to join you. Later, I learned that King Pingxi was going to the Western Regions, especially when I heard that King Pingxi wanted to open up the Silk Road. I think you want to employ people, so I come to join you."
After a pause, Xue Rengui continued: "It's just that King Pingxi is traveling fast. Even if I chase fast, it will be very laborious. I only catch up now. I implore King Pingxi to take him in."
After hearing this, Du Qi took another look at Xue Rengui's appearance. He was indeed exhausted after eating and sleeping in the open.
This way, Du Qi was indeed not slow on his way.
Du Qi looked at Xue Rengui, who was carrying a big gun, and moved his eyes down to Xue Rengui's feet. The weather was getting colder, but Xue Rengui only wore a pair of straw sandals, which looked like they were about to fall apart.
Especially the clothes on Xue Rengui's body were also ragged. If Du Qi didn't know Xue Rengui, based on the appearance in front of him, no one who saw Xue Rengui would think that Xue Rengui had a great future.
Instead, they think Xue Rengui is a beggar.
Du Qi suddenly said: "You chased all this way, did you come here on foot?"
"yes!"
Xue Rengui showed embarrassment on his face, and said: "Caomin was born in a poor family, and his family was poor, so he had no money to buy a horse. So, he could only run and chase them all the way."
Du Qidao: "You, Xue Rengui, want to work for this king. Tell me, what are you good at?"
When Xue Rengui heard Du Qi's words, there was a bright look in his eyes.
King Pingxi asked him what he was good at.
