Shen Changhe came here not only to test and inquire, but also with the mission of seeking help.
It is difficult for the three states to be self-sufficient in food. Originally, they relied on Ningxing to transport food to fill the holes. Now that Ningxing has lost food, the problem has become serious.
At the beginning of the year, the food supply in the three prefectures seemed to be a little tight. Therefore, Lin Jun sent people out to buy food. However, the control in Northern Xinjiang was strict, and food was not allowed in or out.
In the past, the management of Beiliao was not strict, and grain was often smuggled in Northern Xinjiang. But since the separation of the three states and the loss of Longhua Prefecture, Ning Xing's attitude changed.
On the other side of Bei Liao, they rode around to crack down on smugglers.
Lin Jun asked people to find a solution from the northern Xinjiang side... He and Yang Xuan had the same view on wealthy businessmen: as long as they give money, wealthy businessmen can sell everything.
Shen Changhe also asked at that time: "If they don't agree..."
Lin Jun said sarcastically at that time: "That must be because the price you gave is not enough!"
The spy has entered northern Xinjiang and is colluding with wealthy businessmen.
On the other side, Shen Changhe came to test and extort, which is a two-pronged approach.
According to Lin Jun's analysis, the Chang'an side should be sharpening their swords at the moment. Chang'an guards, soldiers from various places, and the southern Xinjiang army may all be on standby. They are just waiting to reach an agreement with Ningxing, and the two armies will attack the northern Xinjiang.
Yang Xuan could not have ignored this situation. When he was attacked from two sides, he could only kneel down.
At this time, the only one who can lend a helping hand is Lin Jun.
Should we be nicer to our comrades?
Fifty thousand shi is a lot of food, but in the context of last year's bumper harvest in northern Xinjiang, it doesn't seem like much.
With only 50,000 shi of grain, Lin Jun can overcome this difficulty. This year he has worked hard to prepare to open up wasteland in the three states.
This is based on Yang Xuan, but Yang Xuan was able to continuously conquer Neizhou and other places to establish barriers in order to open up wasteland.
Lin Jun could only spread his scouts widely.
If the Northern Liao army attacked, those crops would become spoils of war and there would be no need to attack. The three states would collapse on their own the next year.
These things were swirling in Shen Changhe's mind. He stared at Yang Xuan and felt that the Beijiang family had a great cause. If they exchanged food for an ally who was willing to take action at a critical moment, Yang Xuan would definitely be tempted.
But what he didn't expect was that Yang Xuan opened his mouth and said lightly: "Dream!"
Shen Changhe was startled, then smiled and said: "The Duke thinks I am alarmist? The spies from the three states have been in Cangzhou to find out the news. They have Beiliao household registration and are more reliable than the Jinyiwei... Does the Duke know Helian? What is the governor doing?"
Yang Xuan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said calmly: "Director Helian, aren't you asking when we will send troops to Northern Xinjiang this year?"
Shen Changhe: "..."
He glanced at He Lianyan and thought to himself, he didn't expect that the Jin Yiwei controlled by this woman could actually find out such confidential information.
I look down on her!
It shouldn’t be!
He took a deep breath and said, "My lord..."
"If you want to beg, just say so." Yang Xuan said sarcastically.
Shen Changhe suppressed his anger and said, "My lord...please give us some food for the sake of being the enemy of Northern Liao!"
If the talks fall apart, just lower your profile. Don't worry about embarrassment. Compared with the great cause, your and my personal honors and disgrace are nothing.
These are Lin Jun’s words.
Therefore, Shen Changhe lowered his posture to a humble level.
As long as you give me food, everything will be fine.
"Old Han." Yang Xuan smiled.
Han Ji, who was accompanying him from the side, stood up and said, "My lord."
Yang Xuan said: "Tell Liu Gong and give him one thousand shi of grain."
"A thousand stones!" Shen Changhe was really angry this time.
One thousand dan of grain is a lot for an individual or a businessman, but for a behemoth like Bei Xinjiang, it is just a drop in the ocean. For countless mouths in the three states, it is better than nothing.
"Does the Duke of Qin want to humiliate me, Sanzhou?"
Shen Changhe, who had a huge psychological gap, sneered.
Yang Xuan nodded, "Yes! ()"
He said: "For me, if I am willing, I can send troops to attack the three states at this moment. Why don't I take action? It's not because I am afraid of Lin Jun, the famous Liao general. There is only one reason!"
Yang Xuan stretched out his index finger and said contemptuously: "It's easy to make nonsense if you take too big a step."
Han Ji smiled and said, "Three states are blocking the Northern Liao army on the right for Northern Xinjiang. The Duke is very satisfied!"
Shen Changhe's face turned red and he stood up, "Goodbye!"
When he went out, Yang Xuan said: "Lin Jun's life is difficult, but he is not so low-spirited. This is the sign of an arrogant enemy. He wants me to ignore Sanzhou and despise Sanzhou, so as to deal with Beiliao with all his strength. I bet that he must also be showing weakness to Beiliao, so that he can survive in the cracks."
Han Ji winked and an official went out to inquire.
Not long after, the official came back and looked at Yang Xuan with admiration in his eyes.
"The Jin Yiwei tortured the two Eagle Guards and learned that the Sanzhou scouts had recently changed their aggressive posture and retreated. When the two sides encountered each other, the Sanzhou scouts would also take the initiative to avoid them."
Yang Xuan laughed and said: "He showed weakness on both sides and wanted Beiliao and I, Northern Xinjiang, to ignore him. Then he sat back and watched the two sides fight, trying to survive in the cracks. By the way, he became a fisherman."
"The method is interesting." Han Ji said: "However, the Eagle Guard came to inquire about our layout in Northern Xinjiang this year. This is a passive response. In this case, Ning Xing may have a new plan."
"For Ning Xing, Northern Xinjiang is a life-and-death enemy. Both He Lianchun and Lin Ya want to unite their efforts to destroy our Northern Xinjiang first. However, there is a Shegu tribe behind them who is causing chaos. To fight against the outside world, you must first calm down the inside. It seems that Ning Xing chose the latter."
Yang Xuan thought for a long time and said, "Jin Yiwei wants to verify this news at all costs!"
"Yes!" He Lianyan took the order and left.
At this time, as the commander-in-chief, Yang Xuan had no concept of casualties in his eyes.
At home, he became a somewhat unprincipled father.
"Aye! Go play!"
As soon as he got home, A Liang held his clothes and begged.
"Where are we going to play?" Yang Xuan lowered his head and asked.
Ah Liang said: "Go to the mountain gate!"
My father's principle suddenly came out, "No!"
Seeing his son pout, Yang Xuan said: "You can go to metaphysics, but you can't go too much."
What if A Liang regards metaphysics as his second home?
The old handsome pot can be happy to death.
Yi Niang knew what he was worried about and said with a smile, "I will discipline him when the time comes."
"Although it is hard to disobey my father's orders, I dare not disobey him. This is the rule today. But I don't want to force Liang, so if you can guide me, just try my best to guide him!"
"Ms. Wu!"
Wu Luo is back.
"I've met the Duke."
Yang Xuan nodded, "I heard from the guards that you were quite alert and took your time this time. Well done!"
Wu Luo's discovery allowed Yang Xuan to determine Ning Xing's plan, which was a great contribution.
"It's the guards who are great."
Wu Luo immediately resigned.
Yi Niang watched her enter her room and said, "The arrogance in this woman's bones will never go away."
Wu Luo doesn't take credit, it's not a sign of integrity, it's a matter of disdain!
This woman!
"If she were in the palace, I would probably temper her, otherwise how could she serve the Duke!"
When Yi Niang said this, she felt confident.
"Her contribution this time is not small." Yang Xuan said, "It will have a great impact on the overall situation of our northern Xinjiang this year."
"Oh!" Yi Niang heard this and said, "That's all, I'll say a few nice words to Madam later for her.
Your position has changed so quickly!
Yang Xuan smiled and went in immediately.
Zhou Ning raised his head and said, "Zitai, you came just in time, there is a letter from Aye."
"What did you say?" Yang Xuan asked as he sat down.
Zhou Ning handed him the letter and Yang Xuan shook his head, "I'm a little tired.
He rarely reads his wife's () letters home, not because he doesn't want to read them, but because he wants to leave some space for his wife.
"Aye said that the Ministry of Revenue sent a lot of money and food to southern Xinjiang. Shi Zhongtang repeatedly expressed his loyalty and just donated more than ten beauties from the Southern Zhou Dynasty."
"Southern Zhou beauty?" Yang Xuan was startled.
Zhou Ning nodded, "He was brought here by a kidnapper from Southern Zhou. After being trained..."
"How dare the emperor use such a woman?" Yang Xuan looked slightly cold.
"Take it!" Zhou Ning said contemptuously: "That's a beast that will accept it even if it's dead or dead!"
But both of them knew that the emperor was expressing his position to the outside world by accepting women: I believe in Shi Zhongtang!
"Aye also said that the King of Yue likes to go to the palace more and more recently, but the King of Wei doesn't like to go to the palace."
"Whether King Yue enters the palace, he is still a popular candidate for the crown prince. Whether King Wei enters the palace, there is still little hope." Yang Xuan sighed a little, "Speaking of which, if I had not separated Northern Xinjiang, I think Li Bi would have given birth to Wei.
The king has the idea of taking over the East Palace. Once I separate the kingdom, the hope of the king of Wei will be slim."
"The person Li Mi fears most is Yang Songcheng!" Zhou Ning was born in the Zhou family and saw these things more clearly than Yang Xuan. "At this moment, he needs to rely on Yang Songcheng and others, so he joins forces. In this way, the voice of the King of Yue to enter the East Palace is the highest.
But Zitai, don’t forget that in the final analysis, what Li Mi cares about most is not the country, but whether he can seize more power. Therefore, it is impossible for him and Yang Songcheng to truly join forces."
"Strange bedfellows!"
"right!"
"After all, I am still the matchmaker between the two of them."
"Then how about you open a matchmaking shop?"
"No problem, but you, the landlady, have to go to the store every day to take charge."
The couple were playing tricks, and Yang Xuan got up to see Erlang.
Aunt Guan came in and asked, "Madam, why didn't you tell me about the persecution at home?"
After the emperor and Yang Songcheng joined forces, the Zhou family's situation suddenly became difficult. From the court to the local government, the Zhou family's people or industries were suffering a blow.
Zhou Ning shook his head, "I am Yang's wife. Besides, even if I say it, what can Zitai do? Should he send an army south?"
The most taboo thing for a woman is to think that her man can do anything. Even if he can't, you have to find a way to get it done for me. If you push the envelope again and again, it will only make you disgusting in the end!"
Aunt Guan sighed, "I'm afraid life at home will not be easy these past few years."
"My husband has already taken action." Zhou Ning smiled.
Aunt Guan smiled bitterly, "I'm stupid."
Zhou Ning said: "The last time my husband went to Chang'an, it wasn't long after Yang Songcheng led the family members to besiege the Zhou family. Logically speaking, my husband had something to do that time, and he shouldn't have offended Yang Songcheng and the family members behind him too deeply.
.But he still sent troops and horses to invade the Yang family in Yingchuan, and even tore down the wall to humiliate Yang Songcheng."
"Isn't that a demonstration?"
Zhou Ning smiled and said, "If it is a demonstration, there is a better way. Do you still remember when the emperor wanted to touch Huang Chunhui?"
"Remember." Aunt Guan said, "The Duke of Guo sent a message that anyone who touches the Huang family will be punished by him. From then on, the Huang family has no worries. Hey!"
Aunt Guan was startled, "Then the country's male horse stepped on the Yang family in Yingchuan. Is this a warning to them?"
She suddenly realized, "That's right, they just besieged the Zhou family and were attacked by the Duke. If they dared to destroy the Zhou family, I think the Duke would definitely retaliate and destroy the Yang family at any cost."
Aunt Guan looked at Zhou Ning, "Madam, is this the case?"
Zhou Ning's eyes were gentle. "What do you think?"
Her man did this silently, but he never showed off his merits to her or even said anything to her.
So, she suppressed her family's uneasiness about the current situation, and this was her reward.
Husband and wife have always been considerate of each other and helped each other for a long time.
Once one party takes the other party's contribution for granted and is indifferent...
The relationship between this couple is not getting better!
Hua Hong came in and said, "Madam (), the second brother's house over there is almost decorated."
"Go and have a look."
Zhou Ning stood up and said, "Go and invite Yi Niang."
Wang Laoer's house is stuck in the middle of the inner and outer courtyards, and there is also a door opening towards the inner courtyard.
Zhou Ning and Yi Niang entered the Wang family through this door.
The house is quite exquisitely built and has excellent workmanship.
"good!"
Yi Niang was very satisfied.
"What is that?" Zhou Ning asked, pointing to a wooden platform in the yard.
Yi Niang was startled, "I remember there was no such thing!"
The foreman lowered his head, not daring to look at these noble people in the inner courtyard. Moreover, Zhou Ning and Zhou Ning were surrounded by maids, so they couldn't see clearly even if they wanted to. He smiled and said, "This is what the second brother wants."
"What does he want this for?"
Yi Niang was puzzled. She walked up to the stage and looked at the flat wooden surface. "Does he want to bask in the sun here?"
Everyone couldn't help but smile, but when they thought about it carefully, they felt that Wang Laoer was really capable of doing such a thing.
"A wooden platform in the inner courtyard looks very out of place." Yi Niang was able to make the decision, "Tear it down!"
The foreman looked embarrassed, "Second brother said this is... the place where dried meat is dried! No one can touch it!"
Yi Niang's face turned dark instantly!
Wang Laoer is receiving the mission.
"Lin Jun is short of food, so he will definitely take the old road I have walked and smuggle it from both sides. The Northern Liao people hate him to the core, so they will definitely set up checkpoints and strictly inspect the caravans coming and going. Then, only I, the Northern Xinjiang side...
....Second brother, you take the people from Jinyiwei to investigate this matter."
Wang Laoer said happily: "How many people can be killed?"
This idiot!
Yang Xuan said with a dark face, "It's important to do something... come back!"
Wang Laoer turned around and said dissatisfied: "What's wrong?"
Han Ji smiled, thinking that with the current power of the Duke, only the second child would dare to be so casual in front of him!
Yang Xuan said: "It's up to you whether to kill or not."
Wang Laoer went away happily.
The Duke treats his second son like a son and a brother!
Han Ji asked: "Just go and investigate this matter with the Jin Yiwei. The Duke ordered the second son to go..."
Yang Xuan said: "Most of the people coming over from Lin Jun are secret spies. These people are the most sensitive to similar scents. I don't have the patience to play tricks with him. The second brother is generous and unscrupulous, which is just right!"
He looked at the north, "This year, I will make the people of Northern Liao fearful!"
