Chapter 21: Entrusted Before Departure

"Now there are years of grains, five talents are not green, punishment is not needed, etiquette and righteousness are proactive, and the wind is indifferent. The barbarians and the army and divine people come to celebrate. The strange beasts, gods, sweet springs, and poor and auspicious springs are all in the mountains and forests day and night... Therefore, I have obtained the blessing of the Lotus Emperor Heaven, relying on the blessing of the ancestor temple to shine the great map of my Emperor Gaozu, to introduce the great cause of my Emperor Taizong, and to repay the achievements of heaven."

"Hexi Jiedushi, Censor, Longyou Jiedushi, and General of the Army, Chief Censor, and Prince Pei Min of Liang, also in charge of civil and military affairs, and extraordinary heroes. He expelled barbarians and protected our borders and made great contributions. He was a special representative of the Jiedushi and the border generals to participate in the ceremony of worshiping heaven and earth..."

The person who came to pass the order was the old acquaintance Sun Liu, the eunuch who was second only to Gao Lishi. He held the duck's voice and recited Li Longji's will with great enthusiasm and force.

Pei Min bent over and was dumbfounded.

He never expected that at this time, Li Longji summoned him to Beijing, and the reason was that Fengshan was actually Fengshan.

As a later generation, Pei Min had no good impression of Fengshan, and only felt that this was not much so-called face-saving project. It not only cost the people and was also useless for the country, but also had no profit. It was completely unnecessary.

The most typical one is Emperor Wu of Han. Emperor Wu of Han showed the mighty style of the Han Dynasty. With his achievements, he was qualified to be the Fengshan Mountains.

But he regarded Taishan as his old lover eight times.

This was a laborious job to fight the Xiongnu and pacify the Western Regions. The eight Fengshan times that the troops mobilized were able to raise all the military expenses for several wars.

Because of this, Pei Min really had no good feelings for the Fengshan Mountains.

Yan Gaoqing and Yuan Luqian were overjoyed.

Pei Min was not keen on, but he still took the imperial edict with respect.

Sun Liu greeted warmly: "Duke Pei, congratulations, I have invited you only to many side commanders, which shows your honor and favor."

Since the Hanzhuang incident, eunuchs and eunuchs such as Sun Liu dare not be too arrogant, especially in front of Pei Min.

Pei Min smiled and said, "Eunuch Sun has worked hard all the way..."

Pei Min said a few words to him and asked someone to take him down to rest and prepare for a meal.

When Sun Liuyi left, Yan Gaoqing and Yuan Luqian came overjoyed to congratulate him.

Pei Min looked at his two close friends in surprise and asked, "Don't you think Fengshan is exhausting the people and causing money?"

They are all their own people, and he doesn't hide his own ideas.

Yan Gaoqing said seriously: "Dengfeng Zhutian and surrender to the earth means peace and people's livelihood and health. This will tell all the people that the destiny of heaven will be. Although it is consumed, it can also be used."

Yuan Luqian also said with a little caution: "If you are today, the civil and military affairs are determined and the Taishan Fengshan is a feudal sacrifice, so as to cover the achievements of the Fengshan Fengshan in Songshan in the past in the past. Even if the expenses along the way are inevitable, the current state of peace will be very harmful."

After hearing that both of his friends supported Fengshan, Pei Min also realized that he was influenced by modern thought.

Perhaps in modern people, Fengshan is a meaningless thing, but it was different in ancient times.

They regard this matter as a major feat that is of great importance and has extraordinary significance.

When he was in a place, Pei Min also understood the reason. The Fengshan Mountains were like the leaders of later generations, with a full posture.

To be honest, what's the point?

But even the situation and face-saving project have to be done.

After thinking about this, Pei Min also thought it through. Since God had asked himself to go there, he happened to meet the snakes, insects, rats and ants in Chang'an. He looked at Yan Gaoqing with a little apology. Yuan Luqian said, "Two brothers, I'm afraid that this wine can only be here."

Yan Gaoqing and Yuan Luqian knew that the news came suddenly, and Pei Min had a lot of things to deal with, and they all expressed their understanding.

Yan Gaoqing said: "It's okay, but now we are in Hexi business together, and we are still afraid that there will be no chance to get together?"

Yuan Luqian smiled and said, "Brother Xin is very saying, it will not be too late for Brother Jingyuan to come back from Mount Tai."

Pei Min nodded and suddenly said, "I'm afraid Brother Xin will not be able to stay in Liangzhou for a long time."

Yan Gaoqing was extremely talented, and historical books recorded that he "recommended the principles and was the first in politics."

At that time, he won the first place in the national official assessment and was an extremely rare administrative talent.

Pei Min's aide already has a prime minister Zhang Jiuling, and Yan Gaoqing is too extravagant and wasteful.

Pei Min wanted to recommend him out, but instead of serving as his aide, he went to the local area to be a parent official.

Only in this way can we live up to Yan Gaoqing's talent and knowledge.

Yan Gaoqing had known Pei Min's intentions before, and smiled and said, "Brother Jingyuan might as well speak directly."

Pei Min said: "The county magistrate of Puchang County, Xizhou is the ancient country of Gaochang. After the destruction of Emperor Taizong, Xizhou was established to control the Western Regions. There are two major cities in Xizhou, one is Gaochang City and the other is Puchang City. Gaochang City was severely sinicized, and most of my government orders were implemented. However, Puchang City was mostly lived by the remnants of the original Gaochang. Their sinicization was not deeply sinicized, and the government orders would be difficult to pass for a while. I originally planned to give the original county magistrate a chance, but I didn't expect a secret report from there a few days ago. They said that their county magistrate was a Buddhist believer and had deep complaints about me sealing Haizang Temple."

Speaking of this, he waved his hand: "Since he doesn't want to do it, then stop doing it. Not long after he just removed from his position, I originally wanted to find a good candidate, promote the economy and change the old atmosphere. Now it seems that only Brother Xin is the most suitable. I wanted to arrange a good place for you, but now I can only feel wronged."

Yan Gaoqing shook his head and said, "I have heard about this. Today, Japan has the intention of self-recommendation. Come to Hexi, you are not here to travel around the mountains and rivers. Local poverty is to cure poverty, and local wealth is to govern morality. If you give me a Fuxian county that doesn't close your households at night, then why not go back to Weizhou?"

Pei Min said ashamedly: "Brother Xin said that when I turned around, I would give the next appointment, and Pu Chang would hand it over to Brother Xin."

Yan Gaoqing patted his chest and said, "I must do my best to do my best." After a pause, he slapped his head and said, "I almost forgot something. This time I went to Chang'an, Brother Jingyuan took the time to go to Yan's mansion to see me about my aunt and Zhenqing. Now there are only them left in Yan's mansion, and I don't know how they have gone."

Pei Min naturally responded and said, "Don't worry, Zhenqing can be regarded as my apprentice by reason!"

Pei Min was quite content with this being able to become the master of the future sub-saints in calligraphy.

He didn't talk much with Yan Gaoqing or Yuan Luqian, so Pei Min immediately summoned his shogunate to explain the fact that he was going to Chang'an to attend the Fengshan ceremony.

If Yan Gaoqing and Yuan Luqian reacted the same way, even a virtuous prime minister like Zhang Jiuling regarded Fengshan as a great good thing and did not think it was inappropriate.

Pei Min informed Zhang Jiuling, Li Linfu, Wang Changling and others of his plan, and asked them to supervise and handle it.
