In just ten days, with the rhythm of ancient life, it is really not a long time. However, in Jinyang City, there is already a preliminarily determined atmosphere. The fundamental solution after the chaos is what everyone expects, not to mention Liang Feng's well-prepared and experienced arrangement. At the same time, there are also officials from the governor's house. After recognizing the situation, these people are also aware of current affairs, not only obediently obeying government orders, but also exerting their subjective initiative to check and fill vacancies. However, as a result, Liang Feng's desk was already complicated by three points.
There are still matters such as winning over the gentry, building troops and so on. Thinking about it is a headache.
"There is another letter from Xinxing County?" Liang Feng rubbed his forehead and turned to Ge Hong.
After Liang Feng entered Jinyang, Ge Hong took over the command of Jinyang. Although it is also a county decree, but Jinyang is a lot higher than the original Yangyi, and Ge Hong is also promoted. But he was originally General Fubo, a vassal of the customs, and had the merits of winning the city, so such a small promotion is not too much. With such a virtuous inner helper by his side, Liang Feng was able to manage all things in the city with all his strength in the absence of other drivers and governance.
Ge Hongdao: "There is news. Recently, a lot of Xianbei troops have appeared on the north side of Xinxing County. It is said that Liu Hu has also arrived in Jiuyuan, and it is uncertain when he will go south..."
"After the autumn harvest, it is the time when the fat horses are strong and the food and grass are abundant. If Liu Hu really intends to harass Jinyang, I'm afraid it won't be long." How could Liang Feng not know that the autumn and winter seasons are the best time to march. It's just that he has been in Jinyang for less than a month, and the situation has not completely settled down. It is inevitable to face the war immediately.
"Do you want to send someone to investigate first?" Ge Hong asked.
Liang Feng pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Only send a horse to visit. The governor has not yet arrived, so it is not appropriate to send troops directly."
It is inappropriate for him to openly offend the military power of the military governor. Now you can't leave a handle on the other party, and you can't tolerate the slightest sloppiness.
"Boyuan has already met several lieutenant generals. If there is a war in the future, I have some confidence..." Liang Feng was about to continue speaking when the study was suddenly pushed away.
I saw Duan Qin hurried forward: "My lord, there is news from the Shangdang that the new governor of Bingzhou has passed through Taihangxing and will soon arrive in Jinyang!"
Liang Feng immediately sat up straight: "Who's here?"
"It's the brother-in-law of the East Sea King, Pei Dun!"

"General, Shangdang Xue's family asks to see you." After rushing for two days, the convoy guarded by the personal soldiers had passed Huguan, and they did not even go to Lucheng, but drove directly to Taiyuan. There are not many accompanying vehicles, and the soldiers are all riding on horses, so the speed is naturally fast. Therefore, the person who was originally summoned also came up half a day late.
Do not dare to neglect, and immediately report. The man who was sitting high in the tent did not scold him this time, but said, "Let him come forward and speak."
Not long after, a sweaty man was led into the tent. When he saw the owner of the convoy, he immediately knelt down: "I never thought that General Pei would take over the military in Bingzhou, but I am late, and I hope the General will forgive him!"
However, the other party ignored his plea at all, and asked directly, "Did you interact with that Liang Zixi merchant all these days?"
"It's the villain!" Xue Ren replied immediately.
"How is this child's temperament?"
"Knowing business affairs, and having the ability of Fan Li." Xue Ren paused, then said, "The white porcelain produced by Liang's house is now under the control of our Pei family, and at least tens of millions of dollars are in the account a year..."
"That's not what I asked!"
Hearing the man's icy voice, Xue Ren felt the sweat dripping from his forehead even more fiercely: "Yes, he is a smart man! He is mellow and accommodating, and has the virtue of good life. He also has famous generals under his command, who are unparalleled in strength and are very good at training! "
Hearing this, the person in the seat nodded slowly: "Get up. Follow me into Jinyang, and there is a place for you."
Xue Ren then slowly got up and stood aside. Who would have thought that this time the governor of Bingzhou was Pei Dun, the eldest son of Pei's second room! This person was born in the Pei clan in Hedong. Although his father Pei Kang was not as famous as his uncle Pei Kai, there was one thing that was hard to come by. Pei Kang's direct daughter, also Pei Dun's sister, married Sima Yue, King of the East China Sea. As the wife and brother of the Taifu, the brothers Pei Dun and Pei Shao were very much used by the King of the East China Sea. Such a person should be guarding the anointed state, but who would have come to Bingzhou!
But on second thought, it's not surprising. After all, Bingzhou already has a foreign surnamed provincial governor, and this is determined to be done only by people who are trusted by the King of the East China Sea. Xue Ren couldn't help but feel a little lucky at the moment. Before, she had even thought of marrying her daughter to Liang Zixi, and she was so humble that she could even be a concubine. Unexpectedly, the marriage between the Taiyuan Wang family and the Liang family did not happen, and another Hedong Pei came to be the governor of Bingzhou. If he had tied up with that Prefect Liang early, wouldn't he have lost his life? !
But now, he is standing by the side of this General Pei, and he may be reused for a while, which is easier than clinging to Liang Zixi's sick seedling.
Pei Dun ignored this person, and simply ordered a few people to follow, and then ordered the camp again. After walking for two days, he took the car by himself, but the entourage below was already exhausted, but Pei Dun did not show any sympathy for the servants, and still forced him to go on his way. Like tireless geese, the team embarked on the journey again.

"Pei Dun. Hedong Pei." Liang Feng said these two words softly, without surprise or anger in his tone. As Sima Yue's in-law and right-hand man, it's really not difficult to understand that he chose the Pei family to be the governor.
However, as the current governor of Bingzhou, with such a strong commander in charge of Bingzhou, the situation is not easy to say. After all, the King of the East Sea controlled the court with one hand and sent his wife and brother here. Otherwise, if a pillow blows in the wind, the skin will be peeled off even if it doesn't die.
As a result, Bingzhou Wenwu said that he had to weigh the object of his refuge. If Pei Dun was a bit stronger, the affairs of the state would be repeated.
However, these were already expected. The worse situation is not that I haven't encountered it, and the boat can only go straight to the bridge.
"In this way, you can't drag it if you don't drive." After the conversation changed, Liang Feng ordered, "Call Sun Xicao to come."
"Do you still want to use Sun Wenzhong?" Ge Hong couldn't help asking.
"If someone else is the governor, don't drive, you can choose another. But since it's Hedong Pei, Sun Li is the best choice." Liang Feng said. Ge Hong is not good at dealing with the treacherousness of the officialdom, but he and Duan Qin have only decided on this candidate after observing for a long time.
Don't drive the post, it's been vacant for a while. If he waits until Pei Dun takes over, and then pushes out, it will inevitably cause trouble. And to choose, you must choose a local high gate. The Sun clan was a prominent family in Taiyuan, and had successively appointed two high-ranking officials, Sun Zi and Sun Chu. Sun Zi was even an important minister of Cao Wei Tuogu, which was very popular for a while. Of course, after Sun Chu, who was at the helm of the previous generation, passed away, many of the descendants of the Sun family died early, and their appointment as officials was mediocre. So far, no one has been outstanding. In addition, when the descendants of the clan were destroyed in Xinxing County, they chose to serve Liu Yuan, a pseudo-han, which was even more disgusting.
As a side branch of the Sun family, Sun Li's position became extremely embarrassing. Although he is nominally a descendant of a famous family, his sideline has not been given much attention. Not only was he lonely since childhood, but he was repeatedly bullied by the host family. Now that Sun Zhi, who is a direct descendant, has surrendered to the enemy, he has become a member of the Sun clan again, and he has not lost the slightest bit of ridicule.
However, this son has a resolute personality, and he is one of the few people who can handle affairs with heart when Bingzhou is besieged, and personally lead troops to guard the city head. Does he really care about other people's eyes? Probably not. It was precisely because his family members betrayed and surrendered to the Xiongnu that he had the desire to work hard in his heart, and wanted to remove his stigma on his own.
A guy with ability, courage, wealth, and ambition is not the best help? What's even better is that although he is the Sun family, his identity is one level away, and in the eyes of those high sects, he is also too humble to care about. Will a person who has been despised since childhood join a person who is bound to despise his background? Won't. Therefore, people like Sun Li will only be used by himself who doesn't care about his background, and there is no possibility of defecting to Pei Dun.
Conversely, Sun Li was a member of the Sun clan in Taiyuan after all. Through him, the various families in Taiyuan can see a signal that the emperor is going to make friends with the wealthy family in Taiyuan, and Sun Li may be just a horse bone, and it is displayed to be seen by others. In the final analysis, he Liang Feng is also a Bingzhou scholar, how could he forget to support other Bingzhou nobles
And Pei Dun is from Hedong. Even if he has a close relationship with the Taiyuan Wang clan, he is still from Hedong after all, and may not be on the same path as the Bingzhou gentry.
This subtle difference, in other eras, I am afraid that no one will care. After all, being an official in another place is the norm. Who would be so prepared? But now it is extraordinary, it is a critical moment of life and death for Bingzhou. Any slight difference can lead to completely different results.
Duan Qin took the cue and ordered his servants to invite Sun Li. Liang Feng sat up straight and gently rubbed his cheeks with his hands to make his complexion look better.
It's just too much to see. The new governor came too quickly, he must deal with everything before he enters Jinyang!
However, thinking about it this way, just two days later, the Governor of Bingzhou, who was guarded by 500 personal soldiers, drove into Jinyang City.
