Chapter 33 Changes
in the Situation

in the Situation
The Emperor of Jin and Queen Fulun are cousins. They were married when they were young and have been together in middle age. They still have a deep relationship today. Bush is not only the nephew of the old royal family, but also the nephew of Queen Fulun. He is related to both.
After peeing, he was raised under the knees of the emperor and empress, and was extremely pampered.
Six years ago, the emperor issued an edict, conferring Bulu Shi the title of Prince of the South and General of the South Territory, and guarding Baishuang City.
Over the years, Bush not only managed Baishuang City to a great extent, but also spent a large sum of gold and silver to establish good relations with all parties in the imperial capital of Changli. He also cultivated his wings in all parts of Baishuang City, and his foundation became stronger and stronger.
Today's Baishuang City is almost in Bush's pocket. From the military camp to the government office, there is almost no place where he can't reach, and the dignitaries in the city are following his lead.
However, Mangtai Nadan suddenly came out from the middle of the road to kill him, and he was Zuo Shuai, who was on an equal footing with Brush. He seemed to have the power to suppress him. Brush was obeying orders on the surface, but what would happen in private?
Wei Shu almost didn't have to bother guessing.
Just seeing that although Mangtai is not here now, he still leaves behind his eldest son Gu De and a large number of manpower, we can know that these two marshals have fought countless times overtly and covertly, and the difference now is just a victory or defeat.
It can also be inferred from this that the political orders of the Jin Kingdom's imperial court are changing subtly, and the power of this change is not small. Even the emperor's most trusted ministers and relatives have also been affected.
Whose handiwork is this?
Is it an aging prince? Or a powerful official with great hands and eyes? Or a favored relative? What's more, is this the intention of the Jin Kingdom emperor himself?
Wei Shu thought over and over again and felt that no matter which one of the above it was, it all meant one thing:
Although the act of enfeoffing feudal princes has been abolished in the unified Central Plains, it is also very taboo in the Jin Kingdom, which is an alien land.
Unifying the world and bringing the world back to one's home is indeed the ultimate wish of every emperor. The emperor of the Jin Kingdom could not possibly have acquiesced to this, otherwise how could he allow his favorite sons and nephews to rise and fall secretly, and still share the same palm with others?
military power?
Of course, there is another possibility: the imperial power has been emptied.
If the emperor's order cannot leave the imperial capital, then the wild emperor of the Jin Kingdom may die under some kind of coerced power just like Wei Shu did back then.
The Kingdom of Jin...is going to change?
When she thought of this, Wei Shu actually felt a little excited.
The Kingdom of Jin originally relied on force to establish its political power. It had a large number of soldiers and there must be many generals with high achievements and fame. Judging from the current situation, these generals may be the first targets of change. As the prince, Brush was the first to raise the flag.
That archery target.
Change creates chaos, and chaos means opportunity.
As a citizen of the Central Plains, Wei Shu naturally wanted to plan for the Song Dynasty. In her opinion, this was a golden opportunity.
If the Song Dynasty could take advantage of the wind of change within the Jin Kingdom to reduce its military strength externally and divide its court internally, why worry about external troubles not being eliminated?
Ye Fei and Zhou Shangqia sneaked into Baishuang City at this time. Is this why they came?
Wei Shu couldn't help but tighten her grip on the umbrella handle, her palms seemed to be slightly sweaty, but her feet were walking steadily, and her green skirt only swayed slightly, like a willow swaying in the wind.
With Aqisi's appearance as a martial arts expert, it is easy to follow the rules of these servants' behavior.
There were occasional passers-by in the short alley, all of whom were servants of the Marshal's Mansion. Wei Shu walked slowly with her eyes lowered, and after a while she came to the corner gate, showed her waist badge to the old man guarding the gate, and successfully entered the Mansion.
When passing through the second gate, the inspection in the mansion became more stringent, and all the luggage and clothes had to be searched, especially for Song slaves like Wei Shu, who even had their braids untied for inspection.
The golden steward who was in charge of the inspection kept an iron plate tightly, and when he looked at people, he could hardly see any black eyes, only two white wax balls rolling around.
However, after Wei Shu quietly presented a small string of copper coins, this selfless iron face turned into a drizzle of spring breeze, and the inspection became very casual. It was just a casual glance, and in the end the steward still asked
Wei Shu said, "Sensible girl, the God of the Canghe River will bless you."
This steward is from the Buhai tribe and believes in the water god. Whenever she says this to others, she either feels comfortable with the money or is flattered so much that she takes a gift from someone who knows where.
It’s a crappy earth god who sent me this unreasonable prayer.
Wei Shu heard this, but with a smile on her face, she thanked the steward respectfully, thinking that money can really make the world go round, and the ancients were honest and could not be deceived.
After entering the second gate, there is a huge garden.
People in the North like to be open-minded, and the scenery in this garden also has a sparse charm. It is said that it was the private residence of the Liaodong magistrate of the Song Dynasty.
Nowadays, the characters in the garden have long changed, and the scenery is also different. The surrounding corridors are painted in blue, and the handrails are a very bright sea blue, setting off the carvings of animals in the caisson, the cloud patterns on the columns, or
The curly grass pattern, supplemented by the white stone corridor with longitude and latitude in the middle, has both an exotic feel and the laws of the Central Plains.
At this time, the spring cold was not yet over, and there were not many flowers and plants. Wei Shu looked across the yard from the wind and rain, but she felt a little desolate.
She did not go to the verandah. She vaguely remembered that the rule in this mansion was that Song Nu was only allowed to walk on the dirt floor. This was also the origin of Aqisi's pair of wooden clogs. Wei Shu's eyebrows became more and more sharp, and she was about to have a pair of wooden clogs.
The oil umbrella also expresses the meaning of holding a sword in the world.
Not long after walking, I saw several golden maids from a distance, holding up small candles with long handles and lighting lamps in the corridor.
The yellow ram's horn lantern sheds light and shadow, and the raindrops in the lantern's shadow are like broken jade and yellow crystals.
The maids also saw Wei Shu, and they all looked proud. They glanced at her, snorted a few times, and left. No one came to make things difficult for her. They probably felt that Song Nu was not worthy.
Bar.
Wei Shu carried the bamboo basket and small bundle through the garden and entered the hanging flower door.
The garden behind the hanging flower door is smaller, but the pavilions and pavilions are more elegant. There are many flowers and plants in the garden. It must be a gorgeous scene in late spring. Compared with the sparse and spacious front yard, it has a different taste.
Already.
According to Aqisi's memory, Wei Shu quickly identified the path and returned to the "Baihua Courtyard" where Huazhen Nadan lived, and found the steward who had a stern face and a mean attitude.
This steward's name has only one single word, "蒿", which means alfalfa in both Jin and Zhongyuan languages. It is said that he got his name because he grew up in a large field of alfalfa.
Cong is Huazhen's wet nurse and the steward of Baihuayuan, holding the power of life and death.
In Cong's view, all the slaves in this yard are lazy, bad, and greedy, and Song slaves are the lowest among them. She feels that these slave slaves should not be given a place to live, and they should not be allowed to eat people.
As for food, iron chains and pig food are the most suitable for these lowly slaves.
When his eyes touched Hao's cold face, memories emerged intermittently, and with them, there was also Aqisi's vague murderous intention.
There are so many people this girl wants to kill.
