Lord Shang.

When he heard these three words, Zhang Chumao's body still shook a few times.

Immediately, Shi Zhongtang's ferocious glance shocked him.

Shi Zhongtang dared to be so presumptuous, there was only one possibility... the chamberlain brought the emperor's wishes.

Get him!

After the edict was read out, the chamberlain smiled and said, "Congratulations to Duke Shang."

Shi Zhongtang held up his hands and said honestly: "Please report back to Aye, my mother-in-law. I am waiting in the wings in southern Xinjiang. As long as Aye gives an order, I will lead the athletes of southern Xinjiang to go through fire and water for Aye."

The chamberlain thought of the benefits Shi Zhongtang had given him before, and his smile became more sincere, "Shang Guogong will try his best."

This is a hint: get Zhang Chumao away early.

"yes."

Shi Zhongtang smiled and said, "Here comes someone."

"exist!"

"I've invited a noble lady to a banquet. I'll come to accompany you later so I can ask about Ye Niang's current situation."

"Yes, Duke."

The waiter smiled: "You're welcome."

"It should."

Shi Zhongtang looked sideways at Zhang Chumao, "Xu Guogong."

Zhang Chumao's expression remained unchanged, "Shang Guogong."

Shi Zhongtang said: "Chun Yu!"

"My lord." Chunyu stepped forward.

"The newly gathered prisoners, after weeding out the old and weak, made a list of them all and sent them to Chang'an as quickly as possible."

"yes!"

Zhang Chumao had to nod his head for such matters, but Shi Zhongtang had no intention of asking for permission at all.

Officials from the Jiedushi government were present at the scene, which was a blatant slap in the face.

It's more like a declaration: From today on, I, Shi Zhongtang, and Zhang Chumao will part ways.

You wait!

It’s time to take sides!

The officials were silent.

Slowly looked at Zhang Chumao.

This is the son-in-law of the father of the country. Now that the emperor takes action, what will happen to him?

Zhang Chumao sneered, "You're just a traitor, how can you be incorporated into the army?"

"Why not?" Shi Zhongtang asked.

"Nowadays, there are many foreign races in our southern Xinjiang army. It should be more than 60%! Is this the army of the Tang Dynasty or the army of foreign races?" Zhang Chumao asked.

"Your Majesty once said that everyone in the world is a subject. What kind of alien race? They are all His Majesty's subjects. Do you think His Majesty's words are wrong?"

Zhang Chumao clapped his hands, "What do you think?"

A civilian official came out. "The lower official thinks that he cannot be incorporated into the army."

A general came out and said, "I think I should be incorporated into the army."

"The lower official thinks that he should be incorporated into the army."

"The lower official thought that he should be incorporated into the army..."

Civil and military officials came out one after another, and their words were like heavy hammers, making Zhang Chumao's body shake.

The people on both sides were evenly matched.

"Wait, are you planning to rebel?"

Zhang Chumao gritted his teeth and said.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Shi Zhongtang burst into laughter and pointed at him, "Since you took charge of southern Xinjiang, you have been conservative everywhere. You cannot move here or attack there.

Without fighting, how can brothers be promoted? How can soldiers get military merit?

You only think about the interests of one family, so where do you put my civil and military future in southern Xinjiang?"

Zhang Chumao's conservativeness was to occupy his position, but now he has become the target of Shi Zhong and Tang Menglie's criticism.

He couldn't even refute.

"I have led the army to conquer rebels many times and won many times. If you don't praise me, that's fine. Instead, you can sneer and suppress me.

Are you a fool like you worthy of being a military governor?"

Shi Zhongtang turned around and looked at everyone.

"From today on, if you have anything to do, you can come to my place."

Zhang Chumao sneered, "I am the military envoy of Southern Xinjiang!"

A civil servant walked up behind Zhang Chumao.

Then, there was an endless stream.

Immediately, a military general came up behind Shi Zhongtang.

Then, more people came over.

The two sides are clearly distinct.

There were many generals on Shi Zhongtang's side, and many civilian officials on Zhang Chumao's side.

Then they dispersed.

Shi Zhongtang returned to the duty room and introduced the situation to the civil and military officials who came to his side.

"...This Tang Dynasty still belongs to His Majesty!"

This is a hint: following me means following Your Majesty.

Everyone had seen the waiter's attitude before and felt excited.

"Over in northern Xinjiang, Yang Xuan has cut off contact with Chang'an, which is tantamount to rebellion. Your Majesty needs southern Xinjiang."

These words fully describe the current situation.

If you understand, you will understand. If you don't understand, there is no need to explain, just let him continue to be stupid.

Shi Zhongtang waved his hand, "Go!"

Everyone resigned.

Wei Ming and Chun Yu stayed.

Chunyu said: "Deputy envoy... Duke of the state, most of these are useless things that can't afford to do anything early."

Shi Zhongtang smiled and said: "Who is not? You and I are both."

The world is bustling with people, everyone is coming and going for benefit.

Wei Ming said solemnly: "Speaking of which, the Duke has to thank Yang Xuan."

"We must thank him!"

Shi Zhongtang smiled, "I met him once in Chang'an back then. I felt that this man was young and energetic, but a little... weird, like a stubborn young man who needed to be dealt with."

At that time, Yang Xuan had not completely lost his true qualities as a middle school student. In Shi Zhongtang's view, he was just a street kid who would sooner or later pay the price for his middle school status.

"Later, he got out of control in Northern Xinjiang. This boy is not bad."

Shi Zhongtang fell into memories.

Wei Ming said: "Yang Xuan captured Nangui City and caused a sensation for a long time.

To a layman watching the excitement, in my opinion, he is preparing to open up wasteland.

Deputy envoy, he doesn't show his teeth at Chang'an now because he is still young.

Especially money and food.

But look at him, every step of his plan is for money and food.

Once the land reclamation is completed, Northern Xinjiang will initially be able to be self-sufficient by next year.

Then comes money. It is said that trade routes have opened in Northern Xinjiang and there are also many workshops."

"He still lacks cattle, sheep, and horses." Chunyu said proudly, "We have no shortage here."
