Chapter 656 Return to Beijing Nine

The news that Li Xun was about to be transferred from the western part of Longyou quickly spread all over the world, which caused some chaos. Li Xun's confidant generals came to find out the truth and falsehood of the news. The millions of people living in the western part of Longyou, whether Han or foreigners, were reluctant to leave Li Xun. The reason was very simple. During Li Xun's tenure, he produced a series of good policies that benefit the people and strictly controlled the local army. There were few cases of soldiers disturbing the local area. He tried his best to develop production and economy, and improved stable public security. He could do these two things well. In the eyes of the people, this was an extremely outstanding local chief. Now that Li Xun is leaving, they of course reluctant to leave.

After locking the city that day, Li Xun immediately wrote to Zhao Xun secretly, and nearly twenty days passed quickly.

In the land of Longyou, for a few years, Li Xun felt the fulfillment and passion that he had never had before. This feeling is intoxicating. A person with a goal and direction will definitely not feel lonely and confused. Li Xun was a little disappointed and unwilling to leave Longyou. But he knew that this matter could not be changed, and leaving here does not mean the end, but to go to a more difficult place. This place is called Fengjing. Li Xun knew very well that he had not much time left. In the near future, he would face the biggest turning point in his life, one step in heaven and one step in hell, and he could not be avoided, nor dared not avoid it.

During this period, Li Xun was very busy. Although he was about to leave Longyou, he did not immediately and immediately. There would be at least two or three months of buffering. Of course, it depends on whether Zhao Zhi gave Li Xun this time and opportunity. However, it has been almost a month since the court has not sent any orders to him. Li Xun understood that Zhao Zhi still let go.

Li Xun had a lot to do. The first is his wealth problem. The number was very large, divided into two parts. One was at the Marshal's Mansion of Wu'an City, about 1.5 million taels, and the other was in Moyang City, Xizhou, the Western Regions. This was the big one, and finally more than 10 million taels.

It is not that Li Xun was greedy for money. There were many merchants in the Western Regions and were extremely rich in materials. Li Xun conquered the entire Western Regions and transported money and grain to Fengjing three times, nearly 20 million taels of silver and eight million dan grains. In addition, during the war, a large amount of money was plundered by soldiers and generals at all levels. Naturally, they did not dare to eat alone. They only left a small half, and the remaining half was handed over to Li Xun. This was the last summary and submitted. Li Xun placed all of them in Moyang City, preparing to develop and revitalize the production and economy in the western part of Longyou in the future. However, now Li Xun is about to leave, and this plan can only be put down. Even if Li Xun handed over all the money and grain to the court, he had already given so much money and grain before. In addition, these are just icing on the cake. It is not very beneficial to him. If Li Xun transported all of such huge amounts of money and grain to the capital, it would be too big and unrealistic.

So, Li Xun pondered for a while and finally left the money and grain in Moyang City on the spot, perhaps it could be used in the future.

What Li Xun is mainly doing now is to make the final personnel arrangements. Once he is transferred from Longyou, a huge power vacuum will appear. With the big cake of the Western Regions, all parties will rush in immediately to seize their respective interests. If he makes too many arrangements and is too greedy, it will only become the target of everyone. If he no longer comes here, Li Cunxiao and others will not be able to become the climate at all and will only be squeezed out.

Although Shan Qiu, Yuanhe, Zheng Chun, Zhao Wei and others were under Li Xun, they were already well-known generals when Li Xun was still mud-legged. Li Xun was kind to them. They would not forget this kind of kindness and would repay them when necessary, but there was a limit. If they were asked to make a choice between Li Xun and the court, they would never choose Li Xun. Therefore, Li Xun's final personnel arrangement was not among the four of them, but focused on a group of young generals such as Li Cunxiao and others who were promoted by themselves.

Li Xun was ready to push Li Cunxiao to take office as the governor of Xizhou. Xizhou connected Longyou and the Western Regions. The geographical location was extremely important. Moreover, the huge amount of money and food belonging to Li Xun was in Moyang City. There must be someone who could absolutely trust to guard it. Li Xun pondered over and over again and finally chose Li Cunxiao.

Next is Wu'an City, which is the base camp where Li Xun started and is also the core of the seven states in the western Longyou. However, Li Xun also knew that once he left, Wu'an City would definitely become the target of public criticism. The primary goal and competition for many forces was the focus of the concentration. Li Xun chose to maintain influence rather than absolute control here.

Li Xun made an arrangement, which was to expand the patrol battalion and expand the scale of one thousand soldiers to five thousand. His power was not only limited to public security, but also worked part-time in various states to suppress bandits. After the expansion, the patrol battalion was changed to the patrol department, with Niu Jin as the commander, and Zhou Pingyun and Li Zhaodi as the deputy commander.

Suye City is the cultural and economic core of the Western Regions. At the beginning of the founding of the Jin Dynasty, the Western Regions surrendered to the Jin Dynasty. The Jin Dynasty once established three major towns in the Western Regions, namely Suye, Bilan and Chengzhou. The court was likely to restore the old system and re-establish the three towns in the Western Regions, namely the three Jiedushis.

Shan Qiu, Yuanhe, Zheng Chun, Zhao Wei and others were all strong contenders, while Hou Quan, Lei Wanhai and others had too shallow qualifications and age, and they were all from poor backgrounds. There was only Li Xun behind them, so they had no chance of becoming the governor.

Suye City now has more than 15,000 troops garrisoned in Suye City, divided into three battalions. Li Xun decided that Lei Wanhai would be in charge of one battalion of 5,000 soldiers. Shan Qiu, Yuanhe, Zheng Chun, Zhao Wei and others would not make things difficult for Lei Wanhai for Lei Wanhai for his existence even if he knew Li Xun's intentions, looking at Li Xun's face, they would never make things difficult for Lei Wanhai.

The first year of Tianhe, the fifth day of the eighth month.

Li Xun's eldest daughter, Li Mingyue, has been born in this world for almost four months. This day is also Li Xun's 23rd birthday. Li Mingyue's birth and full moon are not around, so this time, Li Xun was the name of re-suming his daughter's full moon wine, and it was his birthday. He held a big banquet to entertain people in Longyou and the Western Regions.

The wet nurse hugged Li Mingyue, shook her and hummed the song, while You Min took out a small dress from time to time and put it on her daughter to compare. It took almost half an hour to go back and forth, but it had not been done yet.

Li Xun and others were a little impatient, so they went up to take a piece of clothing and placed it directly on their daughter: "I'll pick it all over again, this one is it."

Perhaps Li Xun's hands and feet were a little rude, and her daughter opened her mouth and started crying loudly.

You Min hurriedly carried her daughter over and stared at Li Xun: "I always like to make my daughter cry. Is there anyone like you who is like a father?"

"Everyone says that the daughter is the father's little cotton jacket and the little lover."

Li Xun made a few faces at his daughter, and Li Mingyue immediately burst into tears and smiled.

Li Xun touched his daughter's little face and laughed: "I'm right, I'm really my dad's little lover."

You Min reached out and grabbed Li Xun with anger, then picked up a small dress and put it on for her daughter.
