In the late autumn of October, Governor Yang of Yansui Town, on behalf of the imperial court, formally received Bohuluo, the leader of the Northern Lu envoys, and proposed that the chief, Mandulu, accept the canonization of the imperial court. Only then did he agree to pay tribute. As a reward for understanding current affairs, the imperial court will
It is allowed to open a border market in Yulin, but only one section of the Northern Lu is allowed to participate in each border market, and is designated by Mantulu.
Of course, Bohuluo had no say in these major matters. After receiving advice from Governor Yang, he quickly returned to the north and conveyed the news to Khan Mantulu.
Everyone in Yulin City knows that if Mandu Luzhen agrees to be canonized, the drama will officially begin when the next wave of envoys arrive, and countless interests will be entangled in it.
After sending Bohuluo away, the governor's procuratorate suddenly came to a standstill. Governor Yang signed official documents every day, Master Cui read official documents every day, and Fang Yingwu either went to class or supervised work every day.
Wang Zhi, Commander Peng and others were confused and confused about all this.
Although Fang Yingwu interfered with it, Eunuch Wang and Commander Peng were unable to collude for a while, but they both looked at each other passionately. Eunuch Wang knew that she needed Commander Peng as a pawn, otherwise there was a possibility of being sidelined; Commander Peng
He also knew that he needed Eunuch Wang, otherwise even Fang Yingwu would be able to crush him to death with his strength.
According to the idea of the guarding eunuch Zhang Xia, they simply cut off their wrists and pushed out the governor Xue Zhenfu, Ambassador Zhao of Weicang, and Manager Liu of the mansion as scapegoats, leaving it to the governor to deal with it on his own.
In this way, the recent nasty incident can be completely settled, and Fang Yingwu can no longer use the excuse to attack Commander Peng. After Mr. Peng got rid of the suspicion, he naturally put down his baggage and moved forward lightly.
But when the list was handed over to the governor, it was as if nothing happened. There was no response, no word of action, no word of no action. It just dragged on without any movement.
This made Eunuch Zhang, who had the idea, murmur that killing people is just a nod, and the governor's office is a bit unruly. But at this time, Fang Yingwu didn't have the time to deal with these things, and his thoughts were focused on Sun Jing and his daughter.
When things got to this point, how could Wei Cang dare to make things difficult for the Sun family and his daughter? So Sun Jing also received a receipt representing the payment of military rations and could go back home, but this was not what Fang Yingwu wanted.
.
A few days ago, Sun Jing and Mrs. Sun moved into the outer courtyard of the governor's office for safety, right next to Fang Yingwu. This time, Fang Yingwu spent his own money to buy a table of wine and food that could be considered sumptuous in Yulin City. It was in Sun Jing's house.
A banquet was held in the main hall, and Sun Lin was also invited to accompany him.
The three men sat around the table, but according to custom women were not allowed to serve at the table, so Miss Sun had to sit in the back room by herself, listening to what was going on outside.
"That eunuch Wang is so powerful. He has already taken a fancy to your daughter. Fortunately, I was smart and acted on the opportunity and said that your daughter will be at my side, so I stopped his thoughts.
If you leave, I'm afraid you still won't be able to escape the clutches of Eunuch Wang. Do you really want to send such a beautiful daughter to the eunuch? Your whole life will be ruined!"
This is Xianggong Fang's voice. Does Ruhuaruyu refer to her? Miss Sun's face turned red. She felt very happy. Scholars know how to use words.
"What can a eunuch do..."
"It's nothing, it's just that those father-in-laws often use the girls around them to entertain guests. Do escorts know? They drink, play and sleep with you! You think it doesn't matter? I can never accept it!"
When Miss Sun heard this, she couldn't help but secretly say "poof". This Mr. Fang was really shameless when he spoke sometimes, but he was always serious about it, which was very abominable!
Besides, he is not his person, so why should he not accept it for himself? Could it be that he has something in mind?
"Dad Sun, what can you do if you go back? You are already old. My little lady has grown up. You can't work hard all your life to transport military supplies. You can't let a daughter who is as beautiful as a flower continue to follow you.
Just be a coolie! This is a waste of natural resources.
So I suggest you find another way to make a living as soon as possible. I think this Yulin City has been newly built for a few years and there are opportunities everywhere, so why not stay here for a while."
Hearing the word "like flowers and like jade" again, Mrs. Sun's heart felt beautiful again, as if she never tired of hearing it. Then she thought again, Mr. Fang was obviously talking to his father, so why did he mention himself in every sentence?
Is this the saying that "a drunkard doesn't care about drinking"? What should I do? Their status is so different... Miss Sun didn't know what she was thinking for a while.
But in the outer room, Sun Jing glanced at Fang Yingwu, who was frothing at the mouth. He was also an old man wandering around in the world, how could he not see Fang Yingwu's thoughts? But he couldn't be sure, so he couldn't
I just kept pretending to be confused and didn't point it out.
Fang Yingwu wants to retain people, which is fine, but talking nonsense with closed eyes would be too derogatory to the intelligence of their father and daughter. What chance can there be in a miserable place like Yulin City?
So Sun Jing said straightforwardly: "What's the difference between this place and a military camp? Outside is the border wall, and beyond the border wall is the desert. The thieves come and go, and I've only lived a little peacefully in the past few years. What chance do I have? Let's talk about me.
We have already offended the Yulin Guards, and we will not be able to live peacefully here."
Ambassador Sun Lin and Sun, who came to accompany the drink, took up the conversation and said to Sun Jing: "Brother, you have to take a long-term view. Things are changing. Maybe in a few years it will become a place where wealth from all over the world gathers! At least there are several places around the border.
There is only one city in a hundred miles."
Sun Jing heard it. Sun Lin was also helping Fang Yingwu speak. He also heard Sun Lin suddenly talk about Fang Yingwu and said: "Fang Xianggong is the prime minister's apprentice and the son of Hanlin. His grandfather is also a wealthy family! You didn't
Do you think the governor also thinks highly of Mr. Fang?
If it weren't for chance, we wouldn't have met someone like Xianggong Fang! So brother, you have to cherish it and don't miss it. I dare say that if you miss this time, you won't have this opportunity next time!"
In the room, Mrs. Sun heard this very seriously, and she felt ashamed and worried about gains and losses. A person like Fang Xianggong must prefer a well-educated lady? She seems not worthy of it.
Sun Jing secretly smiled bitterly. After all, Sun Lin and he were fellow villagers, but today he was always helping outsiders to speak. He looked like a pimp, and she was not his daughter.
Sun Lin is really just trying to keep a matchmaker. Although he also knows that a niece of his own family cannot be his wife. But in his eyes, being a concubine is not bad. With Fang Yingwu's family background, he can be satisfied if he can get it.
No matter if he is the first wife or not.
Fang Yingwu shook his head while listening to Sun Lin's words. He was very speechless. Ambassador Sun was too out of style and unreserved. This was how Wang Po praised Ximen Qing.
He coughed and opened his mouth and said: "Don't worry, we might open a border market next year. This is a way to make a fortune. Father Sun is very familiar with border affairs, so this is the time to show off his skills!"
As soon as these words came out, Sun Jing and Sun Lin were both shocked and turned their heads to stare at Fang Yingwu.
Only a few people know about these things. Sun Jing and Sun Lin are both hearing about it for the first time. One of them has been walking on the border all year round, and the other has lived in the border town for a long time. They both know the border situation relatively well, so they are very concerned about it.
Shock.
At least as long as they can remember, they have never seen the imperial court open a border market. Most of the border people secretly smuggled goods, and the quantities were not large. If a border market was really opened, it would definitely be a shocking event for the border areas.
Sun Lin also forgot about the pimp and asked quickly: "Mr. Fang, where did you learn about it? Is this true?"
Fang Yingwu said confidently: "I won't go into the details, I am 70 to 80% sure. So, Father Sun, you can wait and see for a while. Even if you work for a big businessman in the border market, you will make more money than going back to Shanxi to transport military rations."
.Besides, given the situation, there may be opportunities for prosperity."
I have to say that what Fang Yingwu said was very tempting, and Sun Jing frowned and thought deeply.
And Sun Lin smiled and said: "If Mr. Fang has any ideas, we can all help him. If Mr. Fang is a celebrity in the governor's office, he will not be able to treat us badly."
Sun Lin had already had a lot of glory with Fang Yingwu, so he expressed his opinion happily. He looked at Sun Jing again, and Fang Yingwu said: "You don't know, Mr. Fang, Jing was also a small businessman when he was young, and secretly went to the north.
The kind of..."
Fang Yingwu was very surprised. Sun Jing seemed to be quiet and somewhat honest. He didn't expect that he had been involved in smuggling business when he was young.
Sun Lin continued to reveal his old story: "It was just that one time the boat capsized and the family was bankrupted, and because of my daughter, so in order to be safe, I used my own horses to transport military supplies."
Fang Yingwu laughed "haha" and said: "It turns out that Father Sun is also a frontier expert. I wonder if he is willing to stay and help me? If we prepare in advance this time, maybe we can both make a fortune."
Sun Jing was a little uneasy at first. Who knew whether Fang Yingwu would mind this kind of illegal business? But after he heard Fang Yingwu's laughter, he felt at ease again.
If there is a chance, who is willing to be a long-distance porter for the rest of his life? Sun Jing cupped his fists and said, "I am willing to serve!"
During this banquet, the three of them were discussing and drinking, and in the end they all got drunk without realizing it. When the banquet broke up, Sun Jing leaned on his chair, motionless and tried to move. Fang Yingwu and Sun Lin supported each other and stumbled.
Staggered away.
Mrs. Sun walked out of the inner room and started to clear the table. But she moved very hard, and the dishes kept clinking, making her father feel confused and uncomfortable.
Sun Jing reluctantly opened his eyes and complained to his daughter: "Move gently, these things are not from our family!" Miss Sun turned a deaf ear and moved even louder.
Can she not be angry? Listening to it from beginning to end, she was originally the protagonist, but she was completely forgotten. She was almost speechless, but in the end she still had no idea what to say. How did she deal with her father?
But I'm on the right track, huh!
"Have a habit of making mischief!" Sun Jing scolded him drunkenly and fell asleep on the bed.
As he walked out of the yard, a cool late autumn breeze blew. Sun Lin felt that he had sobered up a little, and suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Why did you miss the main thing today? I was supposed to talk about the young lady, but I missed it."
"Don't be afraid of the crooked building. Since you have kept your father, your daughter will naturally not be able to escape!" Fang Yingwu said proudly.
