Qin Lang was wearing a purple round necklace with a robe, a black soft-footed head, a nine-ring jade belt around his waist, a goldfish bag and other seven-things tied to it, a pair of deer leather boots under his feet, and a razor-red cloak on his shoulders.

He stepped into Dongxie's village hall with a smile.

The important family members who stayed in the Dushang Village of Yingzhou, the king of Dongxie Man, Xie Yuanshen, all came today and stood up to greet them respectfully.

Everyone stood up and paid tribute.

Qin Lang smiled and gave gifts one by one.

Behind Qin Lang, the commander of the Yamen Army, Qin Cunxiao, and Qin Lang's secretary Liu Rengui, were following Qin Cunxiao. Qin Cunxiao had a serious face, covered in bright iron armor, and was holding Qin Lang's great sword given by the emperor.

Liu Rengui smiled and nodded to everyone.

In addition to the elders of the Xie family, Jia Wuben, Yuan Zhulin, Feng Zhidai and other governors who accompanied the Western Tour were also here.

The grandmother of the Xie family was holding a rhinoceros stick in her hand and specially invited Qin Lang to sit in the first place.

This is Xie Yuanshen's grandmother, Si family from Qianzhou. The father of Mrs. Si is the leader of the Si family in Qianzhou, and now the grandson of the brother is the leader.

The old lady's wife married to Dongxi, which was also a political marriage between two powerful families who have been rooted in Qianzhong since the Han Dynasty. One is in the northwest and the other is in the southeast. Both families are both exercising a distant diplomatic strategy.

It can support each other without direct conflicts of interest.

Mrs. Si married into the Dong Xie family in the capital. At that time, her husband was still the young master. Decades passed, and his husband had passed away for decades. Her son and grandson inherited the Dong Xie family one after another. Xie Yuanshen, the leader of Dong Xie, is her eldest grandson.

Mrs. Si was in her eighties, but she was still energetic and had a strong body. Although she was covered in white hair, she was still there, especially the old lady, who was still in front of Dong Xie’s home.

After coming here to contact us this time, I found that the old lady is indeed very energetic and has a very active mind, especially she has a relatively accurate grasp of the situation outside.

During the Sui Dynasty, she persuaded her husband to visit the chief supervisor sent to the southwest of the Sui Dynasty. In the third year of Zhenguan, Xie Yuan went deep to pay homage to the emperor, which was said to be the insistence of this lady.

Xie Yuanshen didn't really want to go to Chang'an, thinking that the emperor was far away, so he could be free and easy here. However, the old lady not only asked her grandson Xie Yuanshen to worship the emperor, but also persuaded and promoted Si's entry into the court.

Now Xie Yuanshen is leading his troops outside, Qin Langdong is coming.

The old lady decided to welcome Qin Lang into the village. She even arranged two young maids from the village to serve Qin Lang. Later, she personally arranged her young granddaughter to Qin Lang. Although she was rejected, the old lady did not show any dissatisfaction.

The Xie family's village hall was actually the chieftain of Xie's family. Although there was no such title as chieftain at this time, it was enthroned by the imperial court in the third year of Zhenguan. After the place was Yingzhou, the Xie family also called the Xie family of Yingzhou to the public.

This Dushang Village became Dushang City or Yingzhou City. The large village where the Xie family lived for hundreds of years became the governor's mansion.

The most central Dazhai Hall became the governor's yamen.

The several-story village building is still very grand. It is built with all the woods, with multiple fronts and backs, and multiple floors on the upper and lower floors.

Although the old lady was holding a rhinoceros stick in her hand, she walked calmly and didn't need it at all. This rhinoceros stick was more like a decorative object. Qin Lang knew that this was also a treasure of great origin. It is said that this object was originally given by Chen of the Southern Dynasty.

When Dong Xie was in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, he also respected the Song, Qi, Liang and Chen in the south of the Yangtze River as orthodox. From the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Song, Qi, Liang and Chen dynasties, they successively implemented the policy of encroaching on the rich chiefs of the Southern Central Plateau, and granted them hereditary governors, generals and other official positions, and even often rewarded some items.

Correspondingly, these barbarian kings and generals regarded the Jiangnan court as the main principle, and would pay tribute to some local products every year, and sometimes they could even obey the recruitment and send some children to the Central Plains to take the army to fight the king. Their superficial relationship was still well maintained, from Lingnan to Nanzhong, this was the case.

The rhinoceros stick in the hand of Mrs. Si is said to be the one specially given to those more influential people among the slang and the barbarian kings in Lingnan and Nanzhong after Chen Ba first established the Southern Dynasty.

The most famous of the same group of holders is Mrs. Xian from Lingnan, the former head of the Feng Xian family, who later became the Holy Mother of Lingnan and were even named the Lady of Qiao County by the imperial court.

At that time, Mrs. Si was the daughter of the Si family in Qianzhou and the wife of Dong Xie, so although she was still young, she also got such a rhinoceros staff given by Chen Baxian.

The Chen Dynasty has been invaded for more than 40 years, but the old lady has been holding this rhinoceros stick.

In fact, it was not only the Southern Chen, but also from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties. No matter how the dynasties in the Central Plains changed or how the emperors changed, the Dongxi family has always been the local emperors in hundreds of miles southeast of Guizhou.

They control everything here.

The Central Plains court has no actual control over this place for hundreds of years. The court has won over the titles and titles, rewards, etc., and only seeks to rule. As long as you can respect the court as the truth, that's fine.

Although Dong Xie was separated from Xi Xie, they have been willing to maintain this relationship for hundreds of years. They have no ambition to be kings and emperors. They just want to be a real hereditary local official in these hundreds of miles.

As for whether they are called the general manager, the governor, or the general, they don't care much.

They needed the Central Plains court to give them formal canonization and responsibilities to reflect the legitimacy of the local rule, but they were unwilling to let the court really interfere in their family affairs.

Everyone admits each other, just be harmonious.

Therefore, changing dynasties has nothing to do with them. Anyone who is the emperor can do it. If the emperor changes, then he will express his surrender and loyalty to the new emperor.

This tacit understanding has been maintained well for hundreds of years.

The old lady's hair was combed very neatly. Although her face was full of wrinkles, it was also clean and tidy. This was a very particular old lady.

She must have waited until Qin Lang sat down before sitting down on the left, and the people from the Xie family sat down together, with strict hierarchy and full of rules.

In the past, this hall was a place for discussion for the Xie family and many old people, but today there were so many strange faces in this hall, and even an outsider was on the top position.

For the first time in hundreds of years.

The old lady held the rhinoceros staff and knew in her heart that this was a major change that had not been seen in hundreds of years. Times have changed and the rules of the game have also changed.

In some ways, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty did not pay attention to it. He did not abide by the traditions he had been used to break the rules of this game.

The Tang army had already accepted Dong Xie's surrender and tribute before, and also returned the formal enthronement. This was a good situation for everyone to be happy.

But within a few years, the Tang people began to go deeper into southeastern Guizhou, and now they not only need to change their territory, but also to immigrate their troops.

When the old lady heard Qin Lang coming to visit yesterday, she was shocked and stunned.

The old lady in her eighties has experienced several generations of heads of the Xie family and even witnessed the rise and fall of several dynasties in the Central Plains dynasty. He did not expect that this young man would come up with such a crazy plan.

Yingzhou was promoted to the Governor's Office. In addition to the Governor Yingzhou, he also generalized the remaining states in southeastern Qian. The key point was that this young Duke of Wei would request the court to send a royal family to be appointed as the governor in the next life, and a great general would be the chief minister of the Governor's Office. Xie Yuanshen would continue to be the governor of Yingzhou.

However, after the establishment of the Governor's Office, it would be necessary to form an army, and to build three post roads along the Jianjiang River and other three rivers, open three commercial roads, and establish post stations, markets, tunbaos, etc. along the routes.

The young Duke of Defense was very polite and specially prepared very precious gifts during the visit.

But the plans he mentioned were cut on the Dong Xie family like a knife.

The old lady did not turn against each other on the spot. She is in her 80s and has a deep family and has a good temper.

"Duke Wei wants to set up a governor's office in Yingzhou, establish troops, build post roads, relocate, and build trunk villages. These ideas are very good, but the key to these lies in the water transportation and navigation plan of the three rivers including Lao Longtou River."

The old lady spoke slowly, "The plan is a good plan. Once it is really successful, the old man can imagine how lively Yingzhou will be in the future. It's just that we have been in this place for hundreds of years. No one is more familiar with the grass and trees here than us. The three rivers do flow downwards, flowing into larger rivers, and even into the sea. However, in Yingzhou alone, it is difficult for these three rivers to open to navigation......"

The old men talked about a lot of difficulties, such as the dangerous shoals and shallow rivers...

Qin Lang sat there with a smile on his face, listening quietly as she talked.

Don’t have money to read novels? I’ll give you cash or coins, and I’ll receive them for a limited time of 1 day! Follow the public account [Book Friends Camp] and get them for free!

Later, I talked about the remote households in Yingzhou, with few people poor people. Such a big project will definitely cost the people and harm the people...

Jia Wuben sat on Qin Lang's right hand. He seemed to be impatient with the old woman's nonsense. He turned his head and whispered to Qin Lang, "I heard that the crown prince ran to Longyou and followed Hou Junji to Qinghai to calm the rebellion? Isn't this a fool? No one can take care of it. If it really makes a mistake, it's too late to cry, right?"

"The saint is probably helpless. His Highness, our crown prince, sneaks out of Xijing. What can the saint do? He can't tell the world that the crown prince is doing so, right? He has to take care of the crown prince. After all, he is the crown prince of my Tang Dynasty and the crown prince."

"But are you really not afraid of something wrong?" Jia Wuben asked.

"I'm afraid, who can't be afraid? But my son is still young and reckless for a while. Those who are fathers have to help clean up the mess." Qin Lang sighed. He was actually worried.

Others are in Guizhou, but they are staring at Longyou all day long.

He was really worried that Cheng Qian would do this now, and it would be nothing to do in Chang'an, but if he did it in Qinghai, he would not spoil you.

There is no eyeless sword or gun on the battlefield. If there is a big deal of two things, no one can afford it.

"This matter is getting more and more troublesome, and I have to take care of it."
