"What? You want to go to Xuzhou with me?"

"Exactly." Pei Shi nodded and looked at Su Qingyu.

"After so many years of governance in the Yue region, the people's will is what they want, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. I believe that the king of Yue has many capable people. On the contrary, the commanders and horses are surrounded by some martial men. The commanders and horses are highly skilled in martial arts and treat their subordinates with loyalty, which is very popular. But seizing the territory is only the first step. If we lose everything like before, we might as well not fight for it and go back to the mountains with the princess to reunite with our family."

Su Qingyu looked at him blankly.

Conquering a country is only the first step. If you don’t know how to manage it, you will really lose one territory after another. I feel that what he said makes sense.

Lu Bocheng really needs capable people and officials who can help manage the city. Apart from people who can fight, he is probably short of all talents.

There is a shortage of civil servants to manage the city, and a shortage of people who understand the general economics to develop the economy.

Now he has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands. If the city is not managed well and the economy cannot develop, many of his subordinates may not even be able to eat.

Looking at Pei Shi: "Think carefully, the conditions in Xuzhou are not as good as those in Yue. If you want to go to Raozhou, I will recommend you to your godfather. I believe that with your talents, you will have a place in Yue. Your grandson There’s no need to follow you around. It’s not peaceful in Xuzhou now.”

Pei Shi nodded: "I have thought about it. If the princess does not give up, I am willing to follow him to Xuzhou."

Su Qingyu thought about it for a while and then agreed.

Such a talented person, since he was going to bump into him, how could he be willing to let him go.

After the two of them agreed, Su Qingyu turned around and ordered a car to be vacated for his grandparents, and then threw his broken car on the side of the road. If anyone came to check, they would just assume he was dead.

The team restarts.

In the carriage, the old servant Pei Yi tucked the young master into a quilt and asked Pei Shi quietly: "Master, why are we going to Xuzhou?"

Pei Shi looked at his grandson who had bandaged his injury and was lying on the thick quilt, and asked softly: "Zhi'er, why do you think my grandfather changed his mind?"

Pei Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Is it because there is no one behind the King of Yue?"

Pei Shi did not nod, but smiled at his grandson and said, "This is very fatal. No one knows what will happen to the Yue Kingdom a hundred years after the King of Yue. If it is only passed down to one life, the Yue Kingdom will inevitably be torn apart in the future. People eat it.”

"My grandfather asked about the county horse Lu Bocheng. He had performed well in the Fengxiang Army with Cui Sheng. After Cui Sheng left, he never left the remaining Fengxiang Army. He also devoted himself to avenging Cui Sheng and the Fengxiang Army. He was a very good person. And in these years, no matter how many people have given him women, he has not accepted them. A man who is willing to cherish his wife will be a kind and generous officer. "

Pei Zhi and Pei Yi looked at each other and understood. In this case, they will go to Xuzhou.

And Su Qingyu, who got back on the carriage, was also closing her eyes and thinking.

If she could meet the descendants of the Pei family today and save them, the Pei family would naturally owe her a favor, so she didn't have to worry about them repeating themselves in the future.

Pei wanted to follow him to Xuzhou, of course he had his own purpose. But he just wanted to restore the glory of the family. He wanted to choose a good master. Su Qingyu understood and gave him this opportunity. Pei Shi naturally had his own considerations when choosing Lu Bocheng.

In the nearly three hundred years of the previous dynasty, the Pei family produced a total of 34 prime ministers, 38 ministers, and not only civil servants, but also 31 generals.

Moreover, there are countless children in the clan who are active in the court, there are many in-laws and old friends, and there are also many disciples of the Pei family. Best of all, the relationship with the royal family is also strong. In the previous dynasty, the Pei family produced 18 attached horses.

A truly big family should not be underestimated.

But after the Liang Dynasty was established, the Pei family was severely suppressed, and the family's glory was long gone. Firstly, the Pei family will not work hard for Wuliang, and secondly, Wuliang will not use them.

Even if they are constantly suppressed by Wuliang and exterminated, the family that has lasted for hundreds of years will never lose even some in-laws and old friends. And it's not just Hedong, the Pei family's branches are scattered everywhere.

This Pei Shi, if used well, will be a great help to Lu Bocheng. If used poorly, Su Qingyu is also worried that the subordinate is too strong and the boss is too weak, and there will be backlash.

But now it is an environment where warriors govern the country. Su Qingnao is not too worried about whoever has a strong fist and listens to others.

After thinking about things all the way, he soon entered the territory of Zhenhai Town.

Looking all the way, it forms a strong contrast with the excitement and prosperity in the south.

I don’t know whether it’s because the weather gets cooler as we go further north, or because it’s something else. It’s dusty all the way, and no one is around for a long time. The greenness of the trees has lost two points.

But fortunately, I didn't encounter Xiaoxiao blocking the road and robbing me, so it seemed to be quite peaceful.

Not only Su Qingnao opened the curtain to peek out, but the Pei family's ancestors and grandchildren also opened the curtain and looked out. They saw that the people's customs and sentiments were better than they expected, and they breathed a sigh of relief.

The group finally arrived in Xuzhou at the end of October.

At this time, the first snow had already fallen in Xuzhou.

Xuzhou has been regarded as a military fortress since ancient times. Lu Bocheng took over Xuzhou, so he naturally did not dare to neglect it. Not only did he send heavy troops to guard Xuzhou, he also led his own troops to garrison Xuzhou.

As soon as Su Qingyu and his party arrived at the Xuzhou city gate, they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the city gate.

This group of people, not only the guards, but also the carriage drivers, looked like they were armed, and all of them were equipped with weapons. And although there are few horses, they are not weaker than their military horses at all.

The soldiers guarding the city gate immediately became concerned and blocked the road with their halberds raised to the left and right.

"Who are you? Where are you from? Who are you looking for in Xuzhou? What's the matter?" a soldier shouted.

Siyuan stepped forward and told the soldier.

Ah? Jiedushi's wife?

Really?

Jiedushi's wife is not in the south? She came to the north? I haven't heard of it.

I don't believe it.

The soldiers guarding the city gate looked at each other, half believing and half doubting. But they didn't dare to neglect it at all, and immediately ran to report to the city gate officer.

The city gate officer was stunned for a long time, while straightening his clothes and hats, he ran over.

When he arrived at the back of Su Qing's carriage, he clasped his fists: "But the lady?"

He was also half believing and half doubting in his heart. He hadn't heard of it, and the higher-ups hadn't issued any orders. If the lady was coming, wouldn't the mansion send someone to greet her early?

Guo opened the carriage curtain, revealing Su Qing's face. She smiled at the gate officer and nodded: "That's right. I didn't send a letter to Lu Bocheng, and planned to give him a surprise. Is he in the city?"

Dare to call the governor by his name?

It seems that she is the real lady.

I dare not look up again, and clasped my fists again, with my head almost touching my fists: "I meet the lady. The master is in the city, and I will lead the way for the lady."

"Okay, thank you for your help."

"No, no, it's my honor."

After saying that, he ran to the front of the team and gestured to his men. The soldiers guarding the city gate immediately put away their long halberds, stood upright respectfully, and welcomed the lady into the city.

The governor's official residence is in the center of the main city. It took nearly half an hour to walk from the city gate.

When he arrived at the gate, the guards at the gate blocked the door with long halberds again.

"Go and tell the master, the lady is here!"

"Madam? Whose lady is here?"

"You idiot! Of course it's the master's lady, or whose lady!"

The gate officer thought that the soldiers guarding the gate had blown their heads to death by the wind at the door. He gritted his teeth and said that he wanted to kick them hard for the master.

Ah? The master's wife?

Really? Isn't the lady in the south? You didn't lie to me?

"Why don't you go and report it!"

"Oh oh!" A gatekeeper reacted and jumped over the high threshold and ran inside.

"Master, master..." It's incredible.
