Zhuge Qiao was not familiar with Huawan, but he had interacted with her several times.

After all, no matter how fair and strict the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty was, Zhuge Qiao would never be able to erase the mark of being the prime minister's son.

Therefore, when Zhuge Qiao was assigned to Nanzhong by the Prime Minister, although he was not given much authority, he still had some face.

It is true that no one in Nanzhong would dare to deliberately embarrass her, but there is a prerequisite, that is, she also does not dare to take the initiative to cause trouble.

Because what the court needs is a barbarian girl who knows how to educate and understand etiquette, not a barbarian girl who doesn't know how to advance or retreat.

Huawan is a wild girl and not a fool, so she naturally knows the sensitivity of her identity.

Zhuge Qiao knew that Hua Niangzi was related to the Feng family. He heard that her horse farm in Yuexun was built under Feng Yong's personal care.

Wei County is now the seat of the Governor's Mansion of Nijiang. Huawan's cavalry must pass through Wei County if they want to go south.

Therefore, because of his relationship with Feng Xiaodi, Zhuge Qiao took advantage of his reputation and took care of Huawan's cavalry on weekdays.

Hua Wan knew that Zhuge Qiao was connected with King Feng Gui, and heard that King Feng Gui even called him brother.

So it was only natural that the two of them had interacted with each other several times over time.

"Where do you want to go, the flower lady?"

After seeing Hua Wan bowing and going out, Zhuge Qiao did not dare to stop her for fear of offending her, so he had to ask loudly behind him.

"I have to go to that Ma Su to make it clear." Hua Wan hummed, "I have to find someone to explain the loss of my cavalry team."

"Hey, Miss Hua, this is not urgent. I sent someone to invite you over. I really have something to tell you."

When Hua Wan heard this, she had no choice but to retreat reluctantly: "I wonder what Mr. Zhuge wants?"

"It's not me, it's Mingwen who comes to see you for something."

Zhuge Qiao said as he stretched out his hand into his arms again.

Maybe there were too many letters hidden in my arms, so I took a long time to touch them this time. After a while, I took out the fourth piece of paper:

"Flower lady, this is an express letter to you."

After Hua Wan subconsciously took it, she was stunned and asked in disbelief:

"This... Feng Gui... Junhou really wrote me a letter?"

"This is natural. Is it possible that someone would dare to write you a letter pretending to be plainly written?"

I hope this is someone pretending to be...

Hua Wan's expression changed slightly after receiving the letter.

The name Feng Ghost King has great deterrent power in the Nanzhong area.

After calming down her mood, Hua Wan couldn't help but whisper in her heart:

After all, King Feng Gui is also a very wealthy person. I just sent two bonuses to Jincheng Fengzhuang. Isn't that why he came to question me?

You can't blame me for this. There is chaos in Yunnan and business channels are blocked. He should know about it.

Huh? If that Ma Su refuses to compensate me for my losses, I can take this opportunity to say something to the Ghost King Feng...

How could Zhuge Qiao have imagined that his words would cause Huawan to have so many thoughts at once?

After thinking for a long time, Hua Wan still couldn't figure out why Feng Guiwang wrote to him.

She was too embarrassed to open it on the spot, so she hid the letter carefully.

Over the years, the more things Huawan has experienced, the more she understands the power of the Xinghan Society in Nanzhong.

Not to mention that Feng Yong has become more and more famous over the years.

At this time, the flower girl was no longer the innocent young man who dared to say "bah" in front of Feng Junhou without any scruples when she was in Yuexi.

Feng Guiwang's letter is definitely much more important than Ma Su's.

After all, Ma Su can only make himself lose half a year's income at most, but Feng Guiwang can make himself lose a lifetime's income.

Hua Niangzi had no choice but to go out to find Ma Su to settle the score, and planned to go back with the letter and think about it carefully to see why Feng Guiwang wanted to find her.

After waiting for Huawan to leave for a long time, Ma Su sneakily peeked into the yard.

Seeing that Zhuge Qiao was the only one in the courtyard, he breathed a sigh of relief, coughed, adjusted his clothes as usual, and stepped into the courtyard with a calm attitude.

The Yiren maid who had been hiding somewhere before appeared with tacit understanding and brought tea to the two of them.

"You Chang, there's nothing you can do like this. This Nanzhong is considered the domain of the flower lady. If you can escape today, how can you escape tomorrow?"

Zhuge Qiao was worried about Ma Su.

When he mentioned this, Ma Su had a bitter look on his face: "Do you think I want this? Aren't you waiting for Feng Junhou to send a letter to Lady Hua?"

According to what he learned, Hua Wan and Feng Mingwen were inextricably linked.

Therefore, in Ma Di's view, it was not a big deal to deceive Huawan's cavalry and draw out all the bad intentions in Yunnan County.

When a real man does things, why should he stick to trivial matters?

As long as Yunnan County settles down, the income from opening a tea garden on the Keyuze side alone will be enough to be worth countless cavalry teams.

Besides, even if it takes three years for the tea plantation to be profitable, the labor is right in front of you!

Ma Shusheng believed that based on his gentlemanly relationship with King Feng Gui, King Feng Gui would not blame him.

As a human being, you must take a long-term view.

This time it was Zhuge Qiao's turn to be surprised: "How did you know that you would expressly send a letter to Lady Hua?"

When Ma Su heard this, he immediately remembered Zhuge Qiao's previous words:

"Bosong called the pretty lady over. Could it be that he has trouble with her?"

"I was explicitly asked to forward a letter to Lady Hua." Zhuge Qiao's eyes flashed with admiration, "I didn't expect that You Chang could even predict this."

When Ma Su heard this, he said "ha" and a look of relief appeared on his face.

Then he shook his hands subconsciously and found it was empty. He turned his eyes to the corner, then stood up and went over, picked up the broken cattail leaf fan, shook it again, and said proudly:

"Before I expected it, I could even guess what was said in the letter."

"Oh?" Zhuge Qiao's eyes lit up and he subconsciously wanted to ask, but he was a gentleman after all and held back in the end.

Seeing Zhuge Qiao's appearance, Ma Di knew what he was thinking, so he took the initiative and said:

"I predict that the letter from Feng Junhou will most likely be related to the affairs in Yunnan. He will explain his interests to Lady Hua and no longer embarrass me."

is that so?

Zhuge Qiao looked at Ma Di with some suspicion, not knowing whether to believe it or not.

But when he saw Ma Di shaking the broken cattail leaf fan in his hand with such confidence, he couldn't help but feel a little shaken:

Could it be that he and Youchang had already communicated clearly? Otherwise, why would Youchang be so confident?

But it was impossible for him to find the flower girl to find out about this kind of thing, so he did not continue to delve into this topic.

But he asked about a more important thing:

"Youchang, the Han Dynasty recaptured Liangzhou and issued new orders to recruit talents. Youchang is now free, why not go to Liangzhou and give it a try?"

The cattail leaf fan in his hand paused slightly, and after a while, Ma Di slowly said:

"This matter is of great importance, let me take a look and then talk about it."

In the Battle of Jieting, Feng Yong was beaten violently, and there were subsequent friendships, and finally, he stayed in the southwest border for three years.

The arrogance Ma Su had in his early years has long been worn away.

Even his temperament has changed a lot, and many things have become clear.

"You Chang had better make a decision as soon as possible. I heard that if you want to pass the Liangzhou exam, you must first understand the management strategies of the Liangzhou Governor's Office."

"Furthermore, under Feng Mingwen's rule, officials mostly used the method of overall planning and did not know the skills of arithmetic. That will definitely not work."

Nanxiang arithmetic is the best in the world.

All the standards for industries under the name of Xinghanhui come from Nanxiang. As long as they are connected with Xinghanhui's industry, they must implement this standard.

The so-called coordinating method is actually to use mathematical methods to calculate the people's livelihood under governance, and then implement targeted policies.

And all of this is based on Nanxiang arithmetic.

Therefore, if you want to pass the exam, you must be proficient in arithmetic in Nanxiang.

If you want to understand the management strategies of Liangzhou Governor's Office, it is best to go to Liangzhou to find a way there first, become an aide or something like that, and get familiar with it.

It is true that the main local officials of the Han Dynasty were appointed by the imperial court, but most of the staff around them were recruited by the chief officials themselves.

For example, the prefect can appoint and remove some officials and officials at his own discretion.

This rule just provides convenience for Liangzhou exams.

To put it bluntly, if you really want to pass the exam, you must at least work in various levels of government in Liangzhou. That is inevitable.

While working, I also have to find ways to learn arithmetic well.

This kind of thing should be done sooner rather than later. If you do it early, you can learn it early.
