Chang Ling, with her hair hanging down, stood by the pool, watching the two ducks playing in the water.
Zhan Juan hurriedly came in, "Princess, princess! Just now the servants left the palace and went all the way to Liu Shilang's house. Liu Shilang's family was so frightened that the whole family was waiting to die..."
"Tell the important point!"
Changling frowned.
"Yes." Zhan Juan paused, "Shilang Liu sent someone here and said that nothing happened. By the way, Shilang Liu said he would come to see the princess later to express his gratitude!"
Changling still looked calm.
"Princess, this person has a look of reverence on his face, especially when he mentions the princess!"
Zhan Juan looked proud.
Changling stretched out his hand, and the maid next to him handed over a wooden box. Changling grabbed a handful of food and threw it on the ground.
The two ducks quacked and crawled out of the pool. After landing on the ground, they scrambled for food.
Changling clapped his hands and said, "Although Liuxiang was corrupt back then, he might be powerful, and he is standing opposite Lin Ya and others. Even if I don't take action against these people, the most my father can do is beat them up."
"Master Liu is so stupid!" Zhan Ya praised, "Princess Bingxue is smart."
Changling looked at the two ducks fighting for food and said: "He is just trapped in the situation. Fame and fortune have made him lose his sense of balance and judgment. He is worried about gains and losses, which amplifies his fear."
The emperor likes to take advantage of the mentality of his courtiers to control and balance the world.
"That's it!" Zhan Ya was surprised.
"Losing one's normalcy for the sake of fame and fortune is more tragic than a fool!"
Changling grabbed a handful of food and scattered it bit by bit.
She just walked around the pool, looking leisurely.
As the food dropped bit by bit in my hand, the two ducks quacked and followed closely.
Food is fame and fortune, and ducks are people like Liu Xiang who are confused by fame and fortune.
"It's so sad!"
Changling stopped, threw the food on the ground without interest, clapped his hands, and prepared to read a book.
"Princess."
A maid came in and said, "The person who went to deliver the message is back."
Changling turned around with a disappointed look on her face. Zhan Juan noticed that the princess's eyes suddenly burst out with light, like a person who had no love in her life and suddenly discovered the beauty of life.
"Call!"
The messenger came in dusty, saluted, and took out a letter.
"This is Yang Shijun's reply."
Changling took the letter and was about to tear it open, then hesitated and asked, "What did he say?"
The messenger said: "The villain finally met Yang Shijun. Yang Shijun asked about the princess's current situation and asked about the princess's diet..."
Changling's eyes were gentle, "If he knows that I am involved in politics, will he have anything to say?"
"Yang Shijun said it, how can it be as good as everyone wants? But I hope that I will be clear in my heart."
Changling looked at the letter in his hand in a daze.
Zhan Juan waved her hand and the messenger left.
Changling sighed, "Everyone says that I do politics for the sake of power, because I want to be the second Emperor of the Martial Arts. He is the only one who knows my thoughts. Although we are far apart, I feel very gratified, that's enough!"
Zhan Juan cursed, but princess, you prefer to be in the same tent with Yang Shijun!
Changling opened the letter.
——Changling, seeing the word is like meeting.
——The early summer in Northern Xinjiang is neither cold nor hot. It is most comfortable to cover yourself with a thin quilt when sleeping. I wonder what Ningxing is like. It is said that Ningxing is colder than Northern Xinjiang. There is no one around at night, so be careful of catching a cold.
Zhan Juan found that the princess's face was a little red.
My face is red! What are you thinking about?
——The Northern Liao Dynasty is not simpler than the Tang Dynasty. As far as I know, Lin Ya and others are just one of the forces. With multiple forces competing in the court, the emperor must be uneasy. Changling, you have to be careful!
Zitai really knew that his father wanted to take advantage of me!
The princess' pretty face turned redder and redder.
——When you have nothing to do, you will have random thoughts. The so-called quiet and restful time, cleaning up those idiots is also fun.
Changling raised his head, and the light in his eyes made Zhan Juan couldn't help but praise: "The princess is so beautiful!"
Zitai!
As if he knew everything I was thinking!
Only when he cares about me can he put himself in my shoes and think of these things for me.
——Huang Xianggong vomited blood. I think the emperor will not miss such a good opportunity. Once the war starts, Changling, don’t worry. This is a battle between men, and the victory or defeat has nothing to do with women!
He is so domineering!
Changling's cheeks were blushing and his nose was wrinkled.
——As spring passes and summer comes, the wild geese of Northern Liao have already settled in Northern Xinjiang, recuperating and having children. I like to go and see those birds when I have nothing to do. When I look at them, I think of you.
——I think of that night, under that starry sky, I looked down at you. At that moment, everything seemed to have stopped, and it seemed that only you and me were left in the whole world.
In my eyes, there is only you.
——Changling, I miss you too!
…
"Being a Neptune is not easy. First of all, you have to have time to deal with various beauties. Otherwise, one person will feel left out by you, and the other will find it difficult to ask you out. As time goes by, they will naturally become cold.
Secondly, you have to have good looks, right? When a woman sees a handsome guy, her eyes will light up. When she sees a short and ugly guy, even if you have a lot of money, the beautiful woman will just lie down, close her eyes and say, come on! Just like
She is a female prostitute with no professionalism!
Third, you have to be rich. Men will become bad if they have money, and women will become rich if they become bad.
Fourth, you must also have high emotional intelligence. For example, if you want to ask a beautiful woman out, and the beautiful woman says she is at grandma’s house, then...Xiao Xuanzi, how would you answer?"
Yang Xuan lay on the recliner, closed his eyes, "I don't know."
"People with low emotional intelligence will say angrily, Oh! What a pity. Let's make another date next time!"
“What about high emotional intelligence?”
"People with high emotional intelligence will say, then I will pick you up?"
"Something interesting."
"Xiao Xuanzi, you are so serious! If it were me, you would definitely become the Neptune of the Tang Dynasty!"
Yang Xuan opened his eyes, "But you have to have a sea first!"
The red light flashes strongly...
formed a branch line.
"Mr. Lang, Madam Helian is here."
He Lianyan walked in with a slight shake of her hips.
Zhang Siniang stood behind, biting her red lips and watching, and whispered: "She shakes so hard!"
No, it's so natural.
"I still have to practice hard!"
"Mr. Lang."
Helianyan stopped.
Lean over slightly.
Boss Yang opened his eyes and said, "Yan!"
He Lianyan leaned over, but Boss Yang was lying down, so he couldn't see anything.
"Lang Jun, Fengzhou has sent troops."
After discovering the iron ore that the emperor's uncle had stored back then, Cao Ying and others encouraged troops to raid the iron ore. However, Yang Xuan was worried about the possible southern expedition of the Northern Liao Dynasty, so he went to Xinfeng Prefecture and asked Sun Ying to take action on his behalf.
"good!"
Yang Xuan was in a good mood and sat upright.
But the coquettish fox has stood up straight, and the scenery is no longer there.
"Mr. Lang, do you want to thank me?" He Lianyan asked.
Chenzhou is like a glutton, able to swallow any amount of supplies. Especially ore, he is thirsty for it.
"Fengzhou was trapped by bandits, and Chenzhou sent troops to exterminate the bandits. This is kindness. Yan! Many times, you let others owe you too much. That is not kindness, but hatred!"
"yes."
"Sun Ying sent out troops quickly, which shows that he has such thoughts. Now that he has the opportunity to help me, he will only be happy. Let's put this matter aside."
"yes!"
Yang Xuan yawned and gradually regained his energy, "Let's take a walk."
The two of them were strolling in the small courtyard in front of the study.
"Yan! Do you have enough manpower over there now?"
He Lianyan said: "There are never enough manpower for things like this."
"Yeah! However, you can't be too ostentatious. As for manpower, it's better to have a shortage than an excess."
"Yes. By the way, Mr. Lang, the old thief is actually suitable for this job."
"Inappropriate." Yang Xuan said: "The old thief has two hobbies. The first is to borrow money from noble people, and the second is to become a general and honor his ancestors. For him, it is better to be a spy.
Noble man."
"What a pity." He Lianyan sighed, and then quietly approached Boss Yang.
The fragrance around me is overwhelming.
Yang Xuan couldn't help but feel refreshed. Looking at that charming face again, he felt that the sky was blue and his mood was relaxed.
It turns out that looking at beautiful women can really improve your mood!
"You haven't been in Chenzhou for a long time, so you haven't thought about finding someone?"
Yang Xuan asked.
"Lang Junjue, who can I look for?"
He Lianyan turned sideways and said, "Mr. Lang, look at me."
Yang Xuan's side face.
This is a charming face.
"Trouble!"
Boss Yang swallowed quietly.
"Yes!" He Lianyan smiled charmingly, "Nowadays, there are rumors outside that I am the husband's beloved wife. Who dares to marry me?"
"You are not afraid of slanting shadows if you are upright!" Yang Xuan said with a serious face, "Besides, isn't there such a thing?"
"Mr. Lang." Wu Da said from the front: "I would like to invite you to Lang Jun over there."
"Come here."
Yang Xuan said to He Lianyan: "If there is anything missing from your side, report it later and give it to you first!"
Helianyan watched him hurried away.
Youran said: "But I'm thinking, why doesn't this happen?"
Yang Xuan arrived at Zhoushe, and Lu Qiang was there.
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Revenue has withheld five thousand shi of food from us and has not distributed it. Damn it! This happens to be the time when there is a shortage of food."
"Where's the grain in stock?" Yang Xuan asked.
As early as after taking over Chenzhou, Yang Xuan paid attention to one thing, buying and hoarding food.
"I don't think there might be a big war."
In a war, food is the fighting force.
"Your Majesty, I think that I should send someone to Chang'an for a visit. Even if it means complaining, I have to tell the world about Chenzhou's grievances!"
The scar on Lu Qiang's face danced, "Yang Songcheng is that old dog. In the past, the ancestors of the Yang family in Yingchuan were known as virtuous ministers. They were righteous and had a breeze on their sleeves. If he knew anything underground, he would not know how greedy his children and grandchildren are now.
Will you be so angry?"
"No." Yang Xuan felt that the coffin board could not be held down at most, "I will arrange this."
"How about I go there?" Lu Qiang said: "Even if you scold me, I still have to scold you and get the food back."
Northern Xinjiang is poor and every grain of food is precious.
"There's no telling when Beiliao will take action, and Tanzhou should also take action."
"Is your Majesty really planning to attack Tanzhou?"
"He Lianrong suffered defeats one after another and wanted to make a comeback. If I don't take action, he will take action." Yang Xuan said: "If Beiliao really wants to go south this year, and I, Chenzhou, want to join the war, the only way is to hurt Tanzhou first.
Make it impossible to contain."
This is inevitable.
Lu Qiang murmured: "This is... Lang Youqing came, I am interested!"
What kind of metaphor is this?
Yang Xuan asked: "Who is the husband? Who is the concubine?"
Lu Qiang smiled, "Your Majesty is naturally a gentleman."
"Thinking of He Lianrong lying underneath me..."
Yang Xuan felt a little disgusted!
Lu Qiang asked: "Who can I ask to go to Chang'an to scold him?"
A person appeared in Yang Xuan's mind.
…
"What?"
Zhen Siwen stood up suddenly.
"The envoy ordered you to go to Lin'an as soon as possible. By the way, the envoy said that you should explain the affairs in the county and explain clearly at home. After you go, you will be spared for a month or two."
"yes."
What a heavy responsibility!
Zhen Siwen was a little excited. After arranging business and family matters, he hurried to Lin'an.
"Your Majesty, the Qing Dynasty has been reduced!"
When she saw Yang Xuan, Zhen Siwen said affectionately.
"Yeah?"
I don't know what happened to A Liang these days. He would wake up in the middle of the night, causing Yang Xuan and his wife to lack sleep.
"I asked you to come this time because I have something to explain."
Yang Xuan was satisfied to see Zhen Siwen standing with his hands tied.
This is the person he single-handedly raised, and he is the most considerate.
"The Ministry of Revenue has withheld five thousand shi of grain from Chenzhou and refused to give it to me. Go to Chang'an and go on my behalf. No matter what method you use, you can get the grain back!"
Going to Chang'an?
Zhen Siwen was extremely excited, "I haven't been to Chang'an yet."
"After you finish your work, you can take a walk."
No one likes a Shangguan who comes back quickly after finishing his work.
Zhen Siwen went.
Han Ji came out from behind.
"Mr. Lang, this person is available."
"I know."
"Mr. Lang, the Ministry of Revenue withheld this amount of grain probably after Chu He set out. I think this was Yang Songcheng's handiwork."
"The emperor is always right." Yang Xuan said sarcastically: "With the look in his eyes, there will naturally be people below who will understand him."
"This is the superior one!"
"The news about Chu He is probably about to reach Chang'an. I'm looking forward to the emperor's thoughts."
Yang Xuan is really looking forward to it.
…
Zhen Siwen rushed all the way to Chang'an.
"So big!"
"So long!"
Standing at one end of Zhuque Street, you can't see the end at a glance.
Shockingly big.
It's incredibly long.
This is the largest and most prosperous city in the world.
"Go to the household department!"
Zhen Siwen is a dedicated person.
All the way outside the Ministry of Home Affairs, Zhen Siwen signed up.
"Zhen Siwen, the magistrate of Taiping County in Chenzhou, Northern Xinjiang, has been ordered to come to the Ministry of Household Affairs on official business. Please see the abbot."
Menzi glanced at him and said with a cold face, "Wait!"
When I walked in, I suddenly burst into laughter.
"A county magistrate, hahahaha!"
How can a person like the father-in-law have time to meet with the county magistrate?
"What's the matter?"
The father-in-law intervened in this matter for the first time.
The door seemed to fly back.
"What's the matter?"
"The Ministry of Revenue has detained five thousand shi of grain from me in Chenzhou, and my subordinates have been ordered to come and ask for it."
The disciple went back to report.
Yang Songcheng said calmly: "Chen Zhou purchased almost 10,000 shi of grain from various places last year. Those 5,000 shi of grain will naturally be used elsewhere. Let him go back!"
This reason is impeccable!
The door goes back.
"Last year, Chenzhou purchased ten thousand shi of grain, which was enough for chewing. The five thousand shi of grain would naturally be used elsewhere. Come back!"
"Can't you be accommodating?"
Zhen Siwen begged, "I'll ask you to see the abbot and explain this matter."
"Haha!" Menzi sneered, "The king is so busy that he has no time."
Zhen Siwen smiled flatteringly, "Xiaguan brought some specialties..."
"Don't even think about bribing the father-in-law!"
Zhen Siwen choked up, "Chenzhou buys grain because he is worried about Northern Liao going south. By then, once he is besieged, the stored grain will be life-saving food!"
"Haha! Go back! Don't even think about the five thousand shi of food!" Menzi began to drive people away.
Some officials were watching around.
Everyone knew that the emperor's action was based on the emperor's wishes. Of course, weakening the northern Xinjiang would be good for the southern Xinjiang.
In southern Xinjiang, the king of Yue, the grandson of the father-in-law and the legitimate son of the queen, was waiting eagerly for the emperor's call.
Therefore, it was a matter of public and private concern, and the abbot was very happy to do it.
"This man has brought disgrace upon himself."
"When Yang Xuan orders a county magistrate to come, he is prepared to be humiliated."
"Look at his flattering appearance, he is so condescending and pitiful."
"Hey! Yes!"
Zhen Siwen gradually straightened her back.
"Really not?"
Menzi shook his head firmly, "No!"
Zhen Siwen took a deep breath and suddenly shouted: "The Ministry of Revenue is going to force our soldiers and civilians in Northern Xinjiang to death!"
Everyone shook their heads and laughed.
"There are many people who shout crazier than him, but it's useless."
Zhen Siwen's eyes were red, "Is this household department Tongliao? Zhen Siwen is here to ask today, will you give me the five thousand shi of food?"
Menzi said: "What if I don't give it?"
Zhen Siwen pointed to the door, "If you don't give it, I, Zhen Siwen, will hit my head and die here today!"
