The road back to the capital was a little slower. Mo Xiaochuan changed the route specially, from the old land of the Southern Tang Dynasty, Yandi, to Izuyunguan in the north, covering more than half of the current territory of Xiliang. Unexpectedly, , leaving like this for more than half a year. During this period, Lu Qi also returned to the Sword Sect and arranged for the sect master to pass on the inheritance.
The inheritance of the Sword Sect is different from that of other sects. Until now, no sect leader has abdicated at such a young age. This also involves an embarrassing matter. The inheritance of the Sword Sect masters in the past generations has to use secret techniques to transfer their own skills. 80% will be passed on to the successor. Of course, how much the successor can retain in the end depends on the individual's talent. This is also the reason why all the masters of the Sword Sect in the past were masters of heaven at a young age. For one thing, the person who can succeed the master, All of them are extremely talented people, and secondly, they are also related to the Sword Sect's secret skills.
This time, Lu Qi had to abdicate at such a young age, which was unprecedented in the Sword Sect. However, Mo Xiaochuan did not want Lu Qi to pass on his skills. In this case, the damage to Lu Qi would be great, so he ordered someone to Invite Granny Lu and the old Taoist priest to the Sword Sect to help Lu Qi arrange this matter. The old Taoist priest is an elder in the world, and Granny Lu is an elder of the Sword Sect. With the two of them here, Lu Qi's side There will be a lot less trouble.
What's more, Lu Qi's current status is not only the head of the Sword Sect, but also the concubine of the Emperor of Xiliang. Those old stubborns in the Sword Sect don't dare to embarrass her too much if they think about it.
Ahead, houses were exposed in front of him. Mo Xiaochuan stared at them for a long time, with a look of surprise on his face: "Is this Hari Chagai's camp?"
Lin Feng smiled and nodded. He, the commander of the Imperial Guards and the commander of the Ouchi Guards, is now a popular man. However, he is not very adaptable to life in the palace. Moreover, Lin Feng has never married a wife. He has always been single, and on weekdays he avoids socializing with the court if possible. Mo Xiaochuan also greatly appreciated Lin Feng's behavior. When he came out this time, he ordered someone to call him over. Nowadays, Lin Feng has more people under his control, and he knows all aspects of information better than Mo Xiaochuan. With him by his side, Mo Xiaochuan is like having a living map. He knows all the changes in Xiliang. Fully aware, after hearing Mo Xiaochuan's words, Lin Feng said: "Your Majesty, you don't know something. This Hari Chagai is very different from before. Since Hari Chagai became a minister, there has been no more intrusion on his side. Farming is completely back on track. Although they still adhere to the habits of the barbarians, most of the people now live in houses, and the tents are just temporary uses for grazing in the summer."
Mo Xiaochuan couldn't help laughing after hearing Lin Feng's introduction. He was also full of curiosity when he looked at the old barbarian land that was still desolate before but now seemed to have become a new city, especially when he looked at the three-story building in the city. , couldn't help but glance at Lin Feng, and said: "This Hari Chagai is a person who knows how to enjoy. It seems that he was brought to the Central Plains a few years ago and did not let him learn anything else. The wind of enjoyment in Yanland makes him He learned a lot.¡±
Lin Feng also smiled and said: "The emperor is absolutely right. Although Hari Chagai still carries the name of Barbarian Nan Khan, he no longer cares about politics. All government affairs here are handled by the governor's office." .¡±
Mo Xiaochuan nodded slightly. He knew about this. After Hai Rigu and Chu Yin declared themselves ministers, Hari Chagai became anxious. After discussing with Situ Qing, he directly surrendered and was willing to submit to Xi Liang. Just want to be crowned a king.
Mo Xiaochuan also understood what he was thinking. He had always been attached to Xiliang and was helped by Mo Xiaochuan. Now Hairigu has become a vassal state of Xiliang. After all, he is also Mo Xiaochuan's person. By then, if Hairigu If Gu makes trouble for him again, Mo Xiaochuan may not stand up for him again. However, after he surrendered, the situation became very different. Compared with the two parties, he was still closer to Mo Xiaochuan.
" Moreover, once he surrenders, his territory will be Mo Xiaochuan's territory. Even if Hai Rigu is very courageous, he will not dare to go against Xi Liang, who is now so powerful.
After receiving Hari Chagai's downgrade, Mo Xiaochuan immediately decided to retain Hari Chagai's position. After all, the barbarians still needed a buffer force. If Hari Chagai's territory was completely taken over, , then, the territory of Xiliang will extend thousands of miles to the north. Now, these places are still some bitter and cold places, and Mo Xiaochuan really doesn't want to waste too much manpower on it.
Therefore, in the end, the ministers of the DPRK and China, following the direction given by Mo Xiaochuan, came up with a southern khan with Harizha Gai as the southern khan, and a governor's palace outside to handle government affairs, set up schools, and promote agricultural development. .
Mo Xiaochuan was very satisfied with this, and directly appointed Situ Qing as the Superintendent of the Governor's Yamen, with the rank of third grade, and was fully responsible for the government affairs here.
Mo Xiaochuan probably did this because he wanted to repay Situ Xiong's love. Back then, Situ XiongFollowing him, he didn't expect that he would die young at such a young age. Every time he thought about this, Mo Xiaochuan felt uncomfortable. Of course, the more important thing was that Situ Qing had this ability, and he was Hari Chagai's Dear ministers, Hari Chagai will feel relieved if he is asked to take on this supervisory role.
Mo Xiaochuan and Lin Feng were talking and walking inside. As soon as they arrived in front of the city, they saw Hari Chagai wearing a certain eight-treasure hat and dressed like an old scholar coming in a hurry. , then burst out laughing: "Your Majesty, is that the Emperor in front of you? I remember Lao Ha, Lao Ha kowtows to you."
As Hari Chagai said, he jumped off his horse and immediately saluted.
Mo Xiaochuan didn't stop him, he just stood there waiting quietly. Originally, Hari Chagai thought that Mo Xiaochuan would not let him kowtow, but he did not expect that things actually developed like this. For a while, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and really kowtow.
Mo Xiaochuan then stretched out his hand to pick him up and looked at him carefully. Harizha Gesheng was tall and powerful, but now he was dressed like an old scholar. I don't know how he thought of teasing him like this. Yes, the whole person looks a bit nondescript.
The self-proclaimed "Lao Ha" was actually a nickname given to him by Zhang Li, but now he uses it as his own Central Plains name.
"Hari Chagai Khan, long time no see, you are in good spirits lately!" Mo Xiaochuan said with a smile.
"Hehe" Seeing the smile on Mo Xiaochuan's face, Hari Chagai threw away a trace of doubt in his heart. Before Mo Xiaochuan received a courtesy from him, he thought that Mo Xiaochuan was dissatisfied with him. At this time , seeing that Mo Xiaochuan was not unhappy, he no longer cared about the kowtow, and immediately smiled and said: "You don't have the emperor's spirit, please come in and invite the emperor! I have already sent someone to find Situ. After a while, the two of us will I'll accompany the emperor and have a few drinks with him"
