Compared to Gong Ren's artistic consideration, Guo Zhiyun's feelings were deeper. He remembered the soldiers who were ordered to attack Shibao City in recent years.

A tragic song sends out heroes, a loyal soul forges a loyal soul, simple and direct, even more speechless.

Especially the eight characters "Heroes of the Tang Dynasty, immortality for the ages", which penetrated deeper into his heart, and his eyes were a little red.

"I thanked the Duke for the fallen soldiers. If there were no such words as Duke, who would really remember the martyrs under the cliff?"

Guo Zhiyun was inspired.

Pei Min said: "Even if no one remembers, their contributions will not be erased. It is precisely because of them that China has stood still to this day. Even the hardships of the Five Barbarians invading China in the past have not been able to knock us down."

After staying in Shibao City for a night, Pei Min and his party went down to Mengchiling the next day and entered the boundary of Shanzhou.

As soon as he entered Shanzhou, Pei Min and his team of triumphant troops were immediately welcomed by the people.

Since the first year of Kaiyuan, Tubo has sent many troops to plunder with the convenience of Hequ Land and Shibao City.

Although the military disaster in Shanzhou was not as serious as Taozhou, many villages were attacked.

The people of Shanzhou hated Tubo to the core.

The Tang Dynasty defeated Tubo and regained Shibao City to avoid future military disasters.

The simple people were grateful to the Tang army and spontaneously gave them wine, food and rewarded them.

The soldiers were given this honor, and each of them held their heads and chests up, wishing they would not kill another enemy on the battlefield.

In order to save time, Pei Min left the team and headed for Taozhou first.

After leaving for more than seven months, I don’t know what the situation in Taozhou is.

As the governor of Taozhou, Pei Min also cared about the people of Taozhou.

Arriving in Taozhou, you must receive congratulations from officials.

Especially Gu Xin, Zhang Jiuling, and Yuan Luqian.

They were the third leader of Taozhou designated by Pei Min. During these days when he was away, the three of them were responsible for handling government affairs.

As Pei Min initially imagined, Gu Xin had a simple and innocent heart, was willing to plead for the people, and was willing to plead for the people. Zhang Jiuling was an administrative expert and handled government affairs in an orderly manner. As for Yuan Luqian, he was the most meticulous and held the financial power. He did not spend a penny more or a penny.

The three of them cooperated with each other, and Taozhou's government affairs were all under their control. Even if there were any trouble, they had already been resolved.

Pei Min looked at the revenue books compiled by Yuan Luqian, affirmed the work of the three of them, and also explained his true intention: "When I was in Chang'an, I talked with Your Majesty about the Jiuqu land in Hexi. Your Majesty gave me a clear idea in advance, saying that as long as I could recover Jiuqu land in Hexi, I would be appointed as the governor. Your Majesty said nothing but the rebellion was not going back on his word. It was eight out of ten to be promoted to the governor."

Gu Xin, Zhang Jiuling and Yuan Luqian looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

The Jiedushi was a real rank of officials, but he didn't expect that Pei Min was only twenty-five years old and was awarded such a powerful position. It was really amazing.

But after thinking about it carefully, Pei Min's achievements are taken for granted.

There have been few people who have made such achievements in such ages.

"This time I came to Taozhou, in addition to understanding the situation in Taozhou, I would also like to ask if you are willing to take office with me?"

As a chief official of the border, the Jiedushi was more important and needed support from civil and military officials.

Needless to say, the Shence Army must have followed him. Feng Changqing, Li Yide, Li Siye, and Jiang Yue are all affiliated with the Shence Army. With them there, there is no way to go.

As for the civil officials, they have always been Pei Min's weakness. They finally formed the trio of Gu Xin, Zhang Jiuling and Yuan Luqian, but they didn't want to give others a free gift and give them a dowry. So they solicited their opinions in advance and really made contributions to them when they were promoted.

This is not considered forming cliques. How can those who are in high positions not have many trusted profit-loving generals?

Zhang Jiuling and Yuan Luqian agreed without hesitation.

Zhang Jiuling was very talented and had a great talent. How could he be a Gongcao in the local area be compared to serving as a Jiedushi?

Not to mention Yuan Luqian, there is no reason why Pei Min’s hard-core brothers do not support his own brothers.

Gu Xin hesitated, not because he was unwilling, but because he had an elderly mother at home and was not in good health, he was unwilling to be appointed as an official. He hesitated: "Do you know where the governor is?"

Pei Min also knew the situation at Gu Xin's home and said with a smile: "Mr. Guo is in good health. After this great victory, he decided to sue him for illness and recuperation. He told me in private that he would recommend my position as the governor of Longyou to His Majesty, but I don't know if His Majesty will agree. This matter is really unpredictable. After all, the governor of Longyou is a powerful position, and there are many people watching him. Inadequate connections are also my fatal weakness..."

There are nine Jiedushi in the Tang Dynasty, namely Fanyang, Pinglu, Hedong, Shuofang, Hexi, Beiting, Anxi, Longyou and Jiannan. Among them, the one with the most troops was Fanyang, and the one with the richest was Hedong Jiedushi. The Jiedushi of Longyou is second to Fanyang and rich to Hedong, and exists between the two.

For some reason, everyone was jealous of the three governors of Fanyang, Hedong and Longyou. Whenever there were vacancies, the court would fight to the death.

Even with Guo Zhiyun's recommendation, Pei Min could not guarantee that he would definitely be able to obtain the position of Longyou Jiedushi.

If the situation permits, he also wants to take over Guo Zhiyun's position. After all, he is particularly familiar with this area. Not to mention that he knows that the future main battlefield of the Tang Dynasty will be born in the West, as long as he serves in Longyou, he will not have to worry about not having any achievements to win.

"Gu Xin is extremely honored to be in the position of the governor under the command of the governor. However, his mother was not in good health and did not dare to go far away to serve as an official. If the governor was able to succeed as the governor of Longyou, he would naturally serve under the custody without any complaints. If this is the case, he would not have such blessings." Gu Xin also wanted to go further, but the world could not achieve both things. Compared with his official career, he attached more importance to his mother.

"It's okay!"

Gu Xin's talent can only be considered average. Pei Min's preference is his noble character. Although he has regrets, he has long been expected.

There were Zhang Jiuling and Yuan Luqian, and he was satisfied with his current situation.

After staying in Taozhou for a night, Pei Min and the large army joined together and headed for Chang'an.

Chang'an Li Mansion!

Since meeting Li Linfu again, Pei Yun has been living in the Li Mansion. He slept with his classmates and friends of the past, and had a long chat, feeling like he missed the old times.

Li Linfu's own talent once again impressed Pei Yun.

Pei Yun is one of the candidates for the future head of the Pei family. He is very ambitious and is determined to win the head of the Pei family. He regards Li Linfu as a friend of his life and the most trustworthy confidant. He is determined to use his wisdom to defeat other candidates and become the only candidate.

Since Li Linfu made up his plan, Pei Yun has been paying attention to Pei Min's movements. Knowing that he had returned from triumphantly, he was happy without any haste. He laughed and said to Li Linfu: "Brother Linfu, Pei Min is finally going back to Chang'an. I heard that Your Majesty has specially asked the prince to greet him for ten miles!"
