Yang Peng sighed and said: "Don't worry about it." Yelu Hanyu came over and asked with a smile: "What are you talking about?" Ye Qi Guanyin glanced at her and teased: "Brother, how did my sister-in-law do last night?
How charming!" Yelu Hanyu blushed all of a sudden and glanced at Yang Peng angrily, and Yang Peng laughed.
Yelu Hanyu's heart moved, and he said not to be outdone: "I'm afraid the eldest brother is talking about my niece's charm and coquettishness!" Yelu Guanyin smiled, glanced at Yang Peng affectionately, turned to Yelu Hanyu and said: "He is me
Man, I am his woman, so I naturally have to be charming and coquettish in front of him! If a woman is not charming and coquettish in front of her own man, how can she be charming and coquettish in front of others?" Yelu Hanyu was at a loss for words. He didn't know how to refute for a while, and couldn't help but feel in his heart.
Feeling a little annoyed, he walked forward, seemed to intentionally or unintentionally inserted himself between Yang Peng and Ye Qi Guanyin, and sat down.
He turned around and glanced at Ye Qi Guanyin, and said angrily: "I can't help you, you are really a hateful barbarian!"
Yelu Guanyin smiled and looked past Yelu Hanyu to Yang Peng. Yang Peng smiled at her, and she gave Yang Peng an annoyed roll of her eyes in return. Yelu Hanyu saw the two of them looking past her to express affection, and felt in her heart
Jealousy could not help but appear. Yeqi Guanyin withdrew her gaze and said teasingly to Yelu Hanyu: "In the eyes of Princess Yelu, I, a Khitan, am a barbarian, but in the eyes of Han people like my eldest brother, I am only afraid of the Khitans and Xixia people."
There is no difference between people, they are all barbarians! This is called 'half a catty'!" Yelu Hanyu was speechless, seeing that she had the upper hand again, and felt very depressed.
Yang Peng quickly smoothed things over and said: "We are all my family members, let alone barbarians or barbarians. You are all my dear and good wives!"
The two women rolled their eyes at Yang Peng, but Yang Peng showed an intoxicated look. Yelu Hanyu said to Yelu Guanyin: "That's enough nonsense, let's talk about business!" He glanced at Yang Peng and said:
"I think the position of the princess must be determined as soon as possible! Logically speaking, I shouldn't say this, but I feel that this matter can't be delayed..."
Yang Peng reached out and patted the back of Yelu Hanyu's hand, and said softly: "No need to explain, big brother will not misunderstand, you are all thinking about big brother and Yan Yun!" Yelu Hanyu felt very happy in his heart.
Ye Qi Guanyin said angrily: "She is thinking about her elder brother and Yan Yun, but am I thinking about myself?" Yang Peng chuckled, "And you, your good intentions are the same as Mei'er! Hey, you two women
They are both rare and wonderful women in the world, but I didn’t expect that they would both become my wives. God has been so kind to me!” There was tenderness in the eyes of the two women.
Yang Peng said to Yelu Hanyu: "Guanyin also mentioned this matter just now, but I am in a dilemma!"
Yelu Hanyu glanced at Yeqi Guanyin and said to Yang Peng: "Since Yeqi Guanyin told my elder brother about this matter, then I don't need to be nagging anymore! Brother, no matter who you choose, it is better to get this matter as soon as possible!"
Yang Peng nodded. Ah! The cheers of the girls suddenly came from the side. The three of them couldn't help but look around and saw that Concubine Mu was struggling to pull the boom. Zhao Lihua and Chai Yonghui were very excited and were helping her pull.
Zhao You stood on tiptoe and stretched out his neck to look at the lake, looking impatient. On the lake, the water splashed and splashed, and a big blue-black fish was writhing and struggling in the water waves, disappearing and disappearing.
now.
Yang Peng hurriedly ran over. Yelu Hanyu and Yeqi Guanyin looked at each other and ran over. The other girls also gathered from all directions.
Mu Guifei's three daughters couldn't pull the big herring. Seeing that the three women couldn't hold the boom, they were dragged and fell on the grass. They screamed, the boom was released, and they were about to be dragged into the lake by the big herring.
Hit. At this moment, Yang Peng rushed up, stretched out his right hand, and grabbed the end of the boom when it was about to completely enter the water. He only felt a strong force pulling it into the lake, and with his
I almost lost my strength, and I couldn't help being shocked. I quickly held the boom with my other hand, took half a step forward with my right foot, and then let out a loud shout, and suddenly exerted force on my arms. Everyone only heard a loud crash.
At the same time, I saw a black object flying out of the water and landing on the grass beside the lake with a thud.
Everyone took a closer look and found that it turned out to be a very big herring, weighing at least twenty kilograms. No wonder the three delicate women couldn't pull it. Although the big herring left the water, it jumped and struggled endlessly, and was about to be caught.
It ran away. Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed. Zhao You pounced on the big herring, pressing the big herring under him. His small body kept shaking under the big herring's struggle. Zhao You couldn't bear it.
He kept shouting: "It's so awesome! It's so awesome!"
Yang Peng threw away the boom, stepped forward, patted Zhao You on the head, and said with a smile: "Okay, let the master do it!" Zhao You hummed and stepped aside. The big herring moved to one side.
Losing his suppression, he jumped up to a human height and was about to jump into the lake. All the girls couldn't help but scream in surprise. At this critical moment, Yang Peng stretched out his right hand and grabbed the big herring's head, and then violently
He threw it to the ground and made a loud snap. The big herring was still struggling, but it had obviously become weak. Zhao You couldn't help but admired: "Master is still awesome!"
Yang Peng smiled and said to Jiang Li next to him: "Take it to the kitchen and ask the chef to make a whole fish feast with this fish. Let's eat fish at noon today!" Jiang Li responded, picked up the big herring, and pointed it towards the cupboard.
Fang ran to the house.
Yang Peng walked up to Concubine Mu's three daughters and asked with concern: "Are you injured?" The three women shook their heads, and Concubine Mu said mockingly: "We are really useless, we were dragged down by a fish.
Falling to the ground!" Yang Peng smiled and said: "It's good that he wasn't injured." Then he said angrily: "That fish is too disgusting, how dare you bully my wives!" Chai Yonghui and Zhao Lihua smiled gently,
Concubine Mu, however, had a blushing face and trembling beautiful eyes. Yeqi Guanyin and Yelu Hanyu saw this scene in their eyes and couldn't help but look at each other.
At this time, a female guard ran over at a trot, clasped her fists and said, "Master, Mr. Huang Qiaoyun, please see me." Yang Peng nodded and said to the women, "You guys go play, I'll come as soon as I can."
Yelu Hanyu and Han Bing walked forward. Yelu Hanyu and Han Bing followed, while the other women stayed where they were and continued to play. However, the eldest brother left, and they couldn't help but lose their joy.
Yang Peng, Yelu Hanyu, and Han Bing came to the hall and saw Huang Qiaoyun, who was wearing a graceful official robe. Huang Qiaoyun saw the three of them and hurriedly came up to pay homage: "I have met King Yan and the two princesses!" "No need."
How polite." Yang Peng said with a smile.
Then he casually sat down on a chair. Yelu Hanyu and Han Bing stood on their left and right, while Huang Qiaoyun stood respectfully in front of them. Qiaoyun cupped his fists and said, "My subordinates have sent supervisory officials to Ningxia according to the instructions of the eldest brother."
Yang Peng nodded and asked with a smile: "Is this the only thing?" Huang Qiaoyun glanced at Yang Peng and said with a smile: "It's just this matter, I don't dare to disturb King Yan's good mood!" Then he followed.
He took out a report from his sleeve, presented it with both hands, and said: "This is a report recently received from supervisory officials from various places. There are some situations that I think brother should pay attention to!"
Han Bing stepped forward, took the report from Huang Qiaoyun, and handed it to Yang Peng. Yang Peng picked up the report, opened it, and started to read it. His brows gradually wrinkled. After reading the report, he was silent for a moment and handed the report to Yang Peng.
Yelu Hanyu said, "You guys should take a look too!" Yelu Hanyu took the report and started to read it. Yang Peng got up and walked to the Yanyun map hanging on the side, thinking about it.
Yelu Hanyu finished reading the report and handed it to Han Bing. He walked to Yang Peng and frowned: "This matter does not seem to be a big deal, but it must be taken seriously!" Huang Qiaoyun also came up and said: "A thousand-mile embankment collapsed in an ant nest.
, It seems like nothing now, but it may become a big disaster in the future!" Yang Peng said: "But they haven't done anything now, and we can't take any coercive measures!" At this time, Han Bing came over and frowned.
: "Brother, these scholars are really irritating! Today's days are getting better and better, but these people are getting more and more restless!" Yang Peng sneered: "These people all have faith, how can they do it for five fights?
Bend your waist after rice!"
After a pause, he said, "I have no illusions about these scholars for a long time, but I didn't expect that these scholars would actually connect with each other and have some conspiracy! It seems that I still underestimated them!"
Han Bing said: "As the saying goes, if the scholar rebellion fails for three years, I don't think they can cause any trouble." Huang Qiaoyun said with a smile: "Sister Han Bing is right, but you must be on guard! As the saying goes, don't be afraid of ten thousand, be afraid of ten thousand.
One!" Han Bing nodded and said: "Although these Confucian scholars are of little use, they still have an influence that cannot be ignored among the people in many places. This should be paid enough attention! Confucian scholars are not afraid, but they are afraid that someone will take advantage of them.
Confucian scholar!"
Han Bing glanced at Huang Qiaoyun, smiled and asked, "Since you have discovered these problems, you must have thought of countermeasures."
Huang Qiaoyun smiled sweetly and said: "I have an idea, and I'm going to let the elder brother know. Let's see if the younger sister's idea is right or not!" Yang Peng made a listening gesture. Huang Qiaoyun continued: "The younger sister has already selected some people," and then
Then she told her plan in detail. Yang Peng and the others laughed, and Yelu Hanyu praised: "Sister Qiaoyun's plan is very good. For now, there is no better plan than this!" Yang Peng laughed.
Huang Qiaoyun said: "It seems that our little sister Qiaoyun is very qualified for the position of supervisor!" Huang Qiaoyun said angrily: "From what the elder brother means, it seems that the little sister was incompetent in the past!" Yang Peng laughed and said seriously.
: "Who said that? I'm in a hurry with him!"
Huang Qiaoyun's eyes were filled with sparkles, she wrinkled her beautiful nose, and murmured in a low voice: "You're talking to yourself, who can believe it!" There were footsteps at the door, and everyone couldn't help but look towards the door, only to see Zhang Xiang and
Huang Guangzheng walked in quickly, so they all turned around.
Zhang Xiang walked into the hall with yellow light and saw Yang Peng and others above the hall. He hurriedly paid his respects: "My subordinates pay their respects to King Yan and all the princesses!" Huang Qiaoyun blushed and said angrily: "I am not a princess.
You two, don't talk nonsense!" Zhang Xiang Huang Guang couldn't help but laugh. Huang Qiaoyun became even more embarrassed and said angrily: "Why are you laughing?" Zhang Xiang said with a smile: "Don't dare, I don't dare laugh at Huang.
Sir!" Huang Qiaoyun snorted.
Zhang Xiang clasped his fists towards Yang Peng and said, "For your information, King Yan, all the goods and materials shipped from Xixia have been put into the warehouse." He then took out a book, stepped forward, and presented it with both hands. Han Bing came over, took the book,
It was forwarded to Yang Peng. Yang Peng picked up the book and read it, with a smile on his face. He put down the book and said with a smile: "This battle in Xia has gained a lot! After excluding the expenses, I have made a lot of money.
Pen!" Han Bing smiled and said: "It's almost time to catch up with the gains from the recapture of Shanxi!" Yang Peng nodded, frowned, and said somewhat depressedly: "It's a pity that not much grain and grass was seized, otherwise it would have been wiped out in one go.
Western Xia!"
Han Bing asked: "Can we purchase it from the private sector again?"
Han Bing shook his head and said: "No, this round of acquisitions has already acquired a large amount of surplus grain from the private sector. If we carry out such a large-scale acquisition again, first of all, the price will definitely be much higher than before, and we will have to pay several times the previous price."
At the same time, it will inevitably cause a large increase in private food prices, which will greatly affect people's lives. Although food usually looks inconspicuous, it is the foundation of all industries. A large increase in food prices will inevitably affect other industries.
In all aspects, the consequences are unpredictable! Therefore, we can no longer purchase food from the private sector, and the complete annihilation of Xixia can only be postponed! Let’s wait until next spring! If there are no accidents by then, we will use a war to completely end Xixia!" Everyone nodded.
, all looked at Yang Peng with admiration.
Yang Peng looked at Huang Guang and asked: "Have all the Xixia nobles who migrated here settled down?" Huang Guang clasped his fists and said, "They have been settled on West Street according to King Yan's instructions." Yang Peng nodded,
With a thoughtful look on his face, he then smiled and said: "There were not many people on West Street before, but now it must be much more lively!" Huang Guang said with a smile: "That's true. There were no vendors there originally, but now the vendors work from morning to night.
Non-stop until morning.”
Yang Peng smiled, and couldn't help but think of Li Ruolan's charming look and figure, and his heart shuddered. For this Li Ruolan, how should I put it, there is no emotion at all, only naked desire, Yang Peng will be moved when he thinks of her
He just wanted to vent his anger on her and ravage her. It was this pure desire that made Yang Peng feel that she had a charm that was different from other women.
Just when she was thinking wildly, Jiang Li rushed in and reported: "King Yan, Mr. Li Tongren sent someone here." Yang Peng said to everyone: "It must be news about the remnants of Xixia." Then he said to Jiang Li: "Here.
Bring people in!" Jiang Li responded, turned around and shouted outside: "The envoy from the Governor of Ningxia has come to see you!" This sentence spread all the way to the gate, and the secret guard at the door immediately led the envoy sent by Li Tongren into the gate.
, came to the hall. Li Tongren's envoy was a young man. When he saw Yang Peng, he couldn't help but kneel down and bowed: "My subordinate Li Qian pays homage to King Yan. Long live King Yan. Long live King Yan."
!”
Yang Peng smiled. Jiang Li, who was standing next to Li Qian, whispered: "The person standing next to King Yan is Princess Yan." Li Qian couldn't help but look up and saw three Juese with different styles.
The woman was immediately stunned. He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life. He just felt that she should not be a human woman, but a fairy from heaven. She was so graceful and beautiful.
Seeing that he was staring at the princess in a daze, Jiang Li frowned and shouted angrily: "Why are you so rude in front of King Yan and the princess?!"
Li Qian woke up from Jiang Li's shouts and was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed in a hurry: "Subordinate, I don't mean to offend you. I just, just..." He said several things in succession, but
It's just that I dare not say anything anymore. You can't say that the princess is just too beautiful and that's why the subordinates were stunned. This is too rude!
Yang Peng glanced at Yelu Hanyu and Han Bing with a smile, his eyes seemed to say: 'It's all your looks that are causing trouble.' Han Bing looked unconcerned, while Yelu Hanyu rolled her eyes at Yang Peng.
.
Yang Peng turned his eyes and looked at Li Qian, who was lying on the ground and his whole body was trembling slightly. He smiled and said: "Okay, no need to kneel anymore, get up." Li Qian responded and stood up, feeling uncomfortable in his heart.
Feeling uneasy, he suddenly remembered that he had not saluted the two princesses yet, so he quickly knelt down again, kowtowed and said, "I pay my respects to the princess!" Yelu Hanyu smiled and said, "Big brother asked you to get up, what are you doing kneeling down? Get up.
Come on!" Li Qian responded quickly, stood up, and glanced at Yang Peng anxiously.
Seeing that he was still worried and distracted, Yang Peng asked: "Is the situation in Ningxia okay?" Li Qian came to his senses, but found that he had not heard what King Yan said just now, and couldn't help but
Cold sweat ran down their backs and they were panic-stricken. Yang Peng and Yelu Hanyu looked at each other and said with a smile, "I'm asking you, is everything okay over there in Ningxia?"
Li Qian heard it clearly this time, and quickly bowed and said: "As I said to King Yan, everything in Ningxia is recovering rapidly. Agriculture, animal husbandry, and commerce have all seen a gratifying recovery. In addition, those who originally fled Xingxia
Almost 70% of the people in Qing Mansion have returned, and people are still returning. The society is stable, and the people are grateful to King Yan." Li Qian's first two sentences are basically true. Although the last sentence is an exaggeration, it is still true.
It is generally true that the people of Xixia were originally very repulsive to Yan Yun's army. However, after Yan Yun issued a series of land and livestock policies, the situation changed fundamentally. The land and livestock of those nobles were confiscated.
Then it will be distributed to the vast majority of ordinary people for free. At the same time, Yanyun promised to ordinary people in Ningxia that they will be exempted from agricultural taxes for three years. After three years, they will only implement the low tax rate that is commonly implemented in Yanyun.
Just like what happened after the land reform was implemented, the introduction and implementation of Yanyun's series of policies won the hearts and minds of the vast majority of civilians in a short period of time. At the same time, due to the introduction of more open, fair and dynamic industrial and commercial policies
As a matter of fact, all the merchants in Xixia also support Yan Yun from the bottom of their hearts and are willing to become Yan Yun's people. However, not everyone supports Yan Yun. Some people hate Yan Yun with gnashing of teeth. This group of people will
They are the most educated group of aristocrats and Confucian scholars. These people are attached to the old system and enjoy privileges far higher than ordinary people. However, the arrival of Yan Yunjun completely changed everything. Not only did they lose their lofty status
, From this moment on, those lowly mud-legged people dared not to salute them or look directly at them, and they also lost a lot of land on which they relied for their livelihood. To them, Yan Yun was a monster, a monster, and a scourge.
He didn't dare to say anything, but in his heart he hated Yang Peng and the Yan Yun Army under his command to the extreme.
Yang Peng smiled after listening to Li Qian's words. Li Qian thought of the main purpose of his trip, took out a letter from his arms and presented it with both hands respectfully.
Han Bing came forward to receive the letter. Li Qian smelled a faint fragrance entering his nose, and he couldn't help but be fascinated. When he came back to his senses, he found that Princess Han Bing had returned to King Yan and brought him to her.
The letter he brought was given to King Yan.
Yang Peng picked up the letter, opened it, took out the letter paper, read it carefully, smiled lightly, and said: "This is also expected." He glanced at everyone present and said: "Li Tongren wrote that O Daochong
They politely refuse to surrender to us, but they want to surrender to us. The envoy should be arriving at Tianjing New City soon."
Han Bingbing snorted and said: "They have calculated well. They want to maintain their current status, but they also hope that we will not attack them! How can there be such a cheap thing in the world!" Huang Qiaoyun said: "They just want to take advantage of us.
All the benefits have been taken advantage of!"
Yang Peng said to Li Qian: "Thank you for your hard work." When Li Qian heard this, he felt flattered and hurriedly bowed: "My subordinate is the King of Yan, so even if I'm drunk, it's natural. Now I'm just running errands. I really don't dare to take it seriously."
King Yan said this! My subordinates are extremely frightened!"
Yang Peng smiled and said: "When you go back, tell Mr. Li that I am very satisfied with his performance on this trip. He did not disappoint me!" Li Qian was secretly happy and said quickly: "On behalf of Mr. Li, I would like to say that I am very satisfied with his performance during this trip."
Thank you King Yan for your praise!" After saying that, he knelt down again. Then he stood up and stood respectfully waiting for Yang Peng's instructions.
Yang Peng said: "Go back and tell Mr. Li that in Yanyun, we only look at ability and nothing else. If he continues to perform well, his future will be limitless!" Li Qian responded. Yang Peng said: "Okay, I want to say
That's all, you go down." Li Qian bowed and agreed, and then exited the hall.
Yelu Hanyu smiled and said: "Li Tongren's performance on this trip is second to none. What is gratifying is the loyalty he showed to his elder brother. This person has passed the test!" Yang Peng nodded with a smile and looked at Yelu
Han Yu glanced at him and said with a smile: "After this time, you can use this person with confidence." Han Bing said jokingly: "Brother has said something about traitors before, this Li Tongren is probably a traitor!" Everyone laughed.
stand up.
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
