Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 464 Patrolling Weinan

After chatting with the prince Liu Xuan, Ma Di found that the prince had changed a lot. Liu Xuan, who once only led the palace to study and regulated herself by the way of a gentleman, now has some traces of the legacy of the late emperor.

In layman's terms, it smells like a gangster...

Moreover, after staying in Liangzhou for more than two years, Liu Xuan not only improved his martial arts, but also studied government affairs with Zhuge Liang for a year. After a long period of exposure, Liu Xuan already had her own opinions.

All this shows that Liu Xuan is developing in a good direction. At least judging from the current level, Ma Su doesn't have to worry about his inability to take over Liu Chan's class.

Hmm... speaking of comparing lifespan with Liu Chan, it's really not a good choice.

Just when Ma Su was testing Liu Xuan's knowledge, someone came to visit. Moreover, the visitors were not ordinary people, but people from the Du family, the largest family in Jingzhao.

"Du Shu, a humble minister, pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince. I've seen you before. See the Crown Prince and Tutor!" A young-looking scholar walked in the front and saluted Ma Su and Liu Xu solemnly.

In response, Liu Xuan responded almost seamlessly, instantly becoming serious and accepting Du Shu's etiquette. His words and deeds have also changed from a Yongliang knight to a gentleman and a prince. The change is as big as the face-changing in Sichuan Opera.

But more than this, what made Ma Su more curious was the identity of the visitor.

"Could it be Du Ji, the son of Pushe, the pseudo-Wei minister, and Du Wubo?" Ma Su looked at Du Shu and asked curiously.

"The Crown Prince actually recognized Du? I'm really flattered!" Du Shu found out that Ma Su actually recognized him, and he suddenly seemed extremely excited and grateful.

Of course Ma Di recognized Du Shu. This little-known member of the Du family had a more famous identity.

He is Du Yu's father!

"But speaking of it, shouldn't you be on duty in Luoyang now? How come you are in Chang'an?" Ma Di was a little curious as to why so many important figures from the Guanzhong clan are here. Normally, shouldn't all the legitimate sons of such a wealthy clan be in Luoyang? ?

No matter how unworthy Cao Wei was, he shouldn't have ignored the legitimate son of their great clan, right?

"Well, it's a long story... In short, my loving mother passed away two years ago, and I had no choice but to return to Beijing to observe mourning. I didn't expect to be so lucky, and happened to meet the Han Dynasty regaining Guanzhong..." Du Shu replied with a calm face. , with a hint of sadness in his tone.

But Ma Su was speechless for a while and almost couldn't help but complain.

For this reason again, considering that the mother of you Guanzhong children is still a consumable, it was agreed upon that she died of illness two years ago.

However, Ma Di also figured out that Du Shu Yang's appearance in Guanzhong was premeditated. This group of Guanzhong wealthy people had already started planning to invest in Ji Han two years ago or even earlier.

Two years ago... At that time, Ji Han had just conquered Yongliang, and the recapture of Guanzhong was still unknown. At that time, the Guanzhong clan had already planned to send their legitimate son back to Guanzhong. I have to say that this investment courage was indeed outrageous.

But it has to be said that such an investment from the Guanzhong wealthy family really scratched Ji Han's itch. Especially at this time when the whole Guanzhong has just been swallowed up and there is a huge shortage of people, the investment of the Guanzhong clan is so important.

Du Shu, Yang Zhun and a bunch of other legitimate sons of Guanzhong's wealthy families all received the best education. Especially at this age, he has worked for Cao Wei for a long time and is a qualified bureaucrat who has received experience.

This kind of talent can be put to work directly after being brought in, and it is extremely easy to use. If this group of talents are recruited, Ji Han's administrative strength can be improved to a big level.

Because of this, even though Ma Su looked down on their hedging style, he had to admit that their investment helped a lot.

"By the way, I heard that you have a son named Du Yu?" Ma Di looked at Du Shu for a long time, finally nodded gently, and suddenly said.

"Prince and Tutor, have you heard about this?" Du Shu was really surprised now. He didn't expect that Ma Di would be so well-informed.

Not only did he know about Du Shu and the Du family, but he even knew that he had a son! And Ji Han had such a well-connected intelligence network, which he had never known before.

It looks like this is here to beat me!

Du Shu felt a chill in his heart, and even before he saw Zhuge Liang, he felt a little more in awe. Obviously, this regime that could drive Cao Wei all the way out of Longyou was not simple. I had underestimated them before.

At this moment, Ma Su had no idea that Du Shu had started to make up his own mind. He only felt a little surprised.

Du Yu has been born, which means that his butterfly effect has not affected him. Moreover, he is still in Chang'an, and he may be able to become the prince's arsenal in the future.

Thinking of this, Ma Su suddenly had an idea in his mind. He looked at Du Shu and said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, Your Excellency's son Du Yu should be two or three years old. It's almost time to study, right? The prince will come to Chang'an soon, and soon this will be the capital."

"At that time, I, Ma Di, will often teach the emperor in the East Palace. If you are interested, let Du Yu come with me!"

Ma Su's words were a tactful suggestion that he planned to accept Du Yu as his disciple.

He allowed this Duwuku to grow up under his eyes, and established a good relationship with the prince in advance. In this way, when Du Yu grows up, he can immediately become the prince's coolie, and there is no need to worry about him running away.

Of course, Ma Su himself is definitely not the one who truly educates civilized people. He might even drag the Prime Minister over to give a lecture...

The plan works, I’m such a genius!

In response, Du Shu's face became a bit inexplicable, as if he had thought of something. But in the end, he didn't refuse or couldn't refuse, and he was very happy to thank Ma Su for his attention.

After resting in Chang'an for a few days, Ma Di took the prince to patrol Weinan. In order to protect the safety of Prince Liu Xuan, Ma Di even personally guarded the side with a knife.

Under the escort of more than a thousand veterans of hundreds of battles under Ma Su's command, the cavalry general and the Han prince began to inspect the counties and counties in Weinan from Chang'an. Along the way, we passed Chang'an, Lishan, Lantian and other places.

On the one hand, he frightened Xiao Xiao, and on the other hand, Ma Su taught Liu Xuan to conduct population census. In particular, Ma Su's important experience in dealing with wealthy families over the years was all taught to the prince.

"Your Highness, you must remember that files must be the most important thing at any time. As long as you control the files, whether it is a thorough investigation of household registration or the clearing of land, everything can proceed smoothly." Ma Su said to Liu Xuan seriously ,

"When the Han Dynasty conquers Guandong in the future, this kind of thing may happen countless times. If His Highness really wants to go to Guandong with a certain person, you must keep this knowledge in mind. Sooner or later it will come in handy!"
