Chapter 182 Miscalculation of the enemy's situation
Hurry!"
On October 13, the fifth year of Dalong Ruian, Sanqi Juechen came from the south of the Yangtze River and stopped in front of the Liu family!
"Sister Ya, when you get home, just stay at home for a few days. If it doesn't work, move back. It's too deserted for you to stay in that courtyard alone!"
The three of them were Liu Mingzhi, Qi Ya and Qi Yun who had just returned from Jiangnan!
Qi Yun also looked at Qi Ya expectantly: "Sister, your husband is right. If it doesn't work, you should come back to live. You and your husband have been married for so long, how do you live outside? It will be easier for us sisters to talk when you come back!"
"Besides, it's better to be alone. Who will take care of you if you get pregnant? Come back and live together!"
Qi Ya turned over and dismounted with a smile: "Husband, little sister, let's not talk about this for now. We are tired after we come back from camping in the south of the Yangtze River. If you have anything to say, take a bath and change clothes and have a good rest before talking!"
Young Master Liu's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Yes, yes, Sister Ya is right, it's time to take a shower and change clothes. It's not comfortable at all to be sticky after sweating so much!"
Qi Yun secretly spat when she saw Mr. Liu's eyes rolling around. She knew exactly what her husband had planned!
"Sister Ya, Yun'er, you go tie the horses first, and I'll order the kitchen to boil water!"
Without saying a word, Young Master Liu ran towards home in a hurry, leaving the two sisters Qi Yun looking at each other with different thoughts!
The love between sisters is deep. How could the two women not understand each other's thoughts? They both smiled awkwardly and led the horses towards the backyard!
"Sister, you're not going to agree to this fool's idea, are you?"
"What do you think?"
"I think what you think!"
"Tell me later!"
"OK!"
Liu Mingzhi has always kept his promise and traveled thousands of miles south to worship Ruyi with his two sisters, Qi Ya!
After paying homage to Ruyi, I stayed in Jiangnan for more than a month and lived a stable life with Qi Run and his wife!
As for the matter of going to court, it is the default thing in the court that Young Master Liu is often sick and unable to go to court! It would be strange if Young Master Liu conscientiously did not leave the yamen where he works one day!
According to the etiquette, Young Master Liu's behavior of going to court for three days of fishing and two days of drying nets is against the rules, but Li Zheng seems to be happy to stereotype Young Master Liu like this!
Many imperial envoys and officials' participation notes were found in Li Zheng's Dragon Case, but they were all lost and disappeared!
Over time, the courtiers also came to their senses. The reason why Duke Dingguo was able to be so carefree was because His Majesty acquiesced in his behavior!
As for the reason, Prince Li Baiyu suggested the matter of Liu Mingzhi several times, but after Li Zheng called him to the imperial study room to chat for a long time, the prince never mentioned the matter of Duke Ding's dereliction of duty.
Many old foxes who have been in the court for a long time thought that His Majesty seemed to be intending to downplay the influence of Dingguo Gong Liu Mingzhi in the court!
Except for important matters, it seems that it is no longer a new thing for Liu Mingzhi not to enter Qinzheng Hall once a month!
The next day, Mr. Liu walked out of the room with his rickety body and trembling support on the corner and let out a long sigh!
"After all, this young master refuses to accept anyone and only supports the wall!"
Qi Ya's face glowed, and she walked out of the room radiantly, with a charming and charming temperament in her whole person!
Glancing at Young Master Liu charmingly, Qi Ya smiled like a spring breeze, and raised her hand to help Young Master Liu walk towards the pavilion!
"You know how powerful I am, let's see if you dare to do anything fancy next time!"
Liu Dashao let out a long sigh: "Don't be complacent. This time, I made a mistake in judging the situation of the enemy. I forgot that you have not practiced the Yin-Yang Harmony and Great Compassion Fu. The next time you practice the Yin-Yang Harmony and Great Compassion Fu, I will find out for you."
Back to the place!"
Qi Ya smiled charmingly and pursed her pretty lips: "My sister was a little interested in me when I mentioned it last night, but now! If I am interested, I don't plan to practice. Let's see if you still dare to be proud!"
Before reaching the pavilion, the songs and laughter of the girls Qinglian echoed in my ears.
I wonder what other interesting things the girls are talking about!
Young Master Liu thought again and again, fearing that he would enter the tiger's mouth right after he left the wolf's den!
"Sister Ya, please help me go back to the room to change into my official robe. I suddenly remembered that I haven't gone to court for so long. My colleagues may have missed me for a long time, and even looked forward to it. I'd better go to court."
Come on, how can I, as a minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, live in panic while depriving myself of the king’s salary?”
"Pfft..."
Qi Ya covered her cherry lips and chuckled, giving Young Master Liu a charming look!
"I'll give you a massage to revitalize your muscles and veins before you go to court. If people see you like this, I don't know what rumors will spread in the capital, saying that these sisters are like wolves... You understand!
"
"Sister Ya still knows how to be considerate of me. The actions of the predecessors are the lessons of the future generations. Captain Li is right, don't fight a battle that you are not sure about. If you don't listen to the words of your predecessors, you will suffer the consequences in front of you!"
Qi Ya didn't even ask what Captain Li meant. She put Master Liu's wrist on her shoulder and turned back towards the room!
In the blink of an eye, Young Master Liu walked out of the room wearing official robes with a normal expression on his face. Qi Ya's massage skills were simply outstanding.
Although I'm still slightly uncomfortable, I don't look as weak as before!
Liu Mingzhi looked up at the sky and stretched himself. There was still about an hour until the morning was over, so it shouldn't be too late to rush there now!
Young Master Liu, who sneaked around the pavilion and acted like a thief in his own house, left the house and rushed towards the palace!
"Hiss... I am dazzled, maybe you took the wrong medicine!"
Commander Jia looked at Mr. Liu in astonishment as he rushed to court in a daze, and seemed a little shocked!
Ding Guogong Liu Mingzhi actually came to court. Although he came more than an hour later than the civil and military officials, Young Master Liu really came!
What is this compared to not seeing anyone for a month? This is an obvious improvement!
Mr. Liu rubbed his waist with a complex expression: "Oh, I just discovered today that it is such a wonderful thing to go to court. Old Jia, am I a loyal and patriotic minister?"
"Oh, if you keep chatting with me for a long time, your dream of being a good minister will be shattered. Get out of here!"
Young Master Liu waved his hand towards Commander Jia and walked towards the palace: "Hey, what's the difference between the guards without a sense of humor and the drunkards and rice sacks of the government soldiers!"
Lao Jia touched the lieutenant beside him with his arm: "What did Duke Dingguo mean?"
"The general doesn't understand either!"
"Your Majesty, the war in Northern Xinjiang has caused the inter-trade market outside Yingzhou City to be in jeopardy. Daily business travel is less than 10% of last year's level, and commercial tax revenue has been reduced by about 80%. We must find a way to deal with it!"
"I think so too. We must send someone to take care of the mutual trade in Northern Xinjiang!"
"Tong Aiqing, Wei Aiqing, please step aside first. I will think about this matter before we discuss it!"
"I obey the decree!"
"Your Majesty, in the past few months, Western merchants have sold out their goods in the market and made a lot of money. They used the money they earned to buy all kinds of porcelain, tea, silk and satin, and my Dalong's precious things have been shipped to the sea.
On board the ship! Governor An Jianghe has made three concessions, and the monsoon is suitable for sailing to the West to make friends with all nations!"
"I understand. I will give you an answer to this matter at the next court meeting. Wang Aiqing, please step aside first!"
"yes!"
"My son, Liu Mingzhi, comes to see my father. Long live my emperor!"
Li Zheng and all the civil and military officials looked at Mr. Liu in astonishment as he walked into the Jinluan Hall with a smile. Everyone subconsciously looked at the sky outside the hall!
That's right, it's early in the morning, that means I didn't dream, Liu Mingzhi really came to court!
"No courtesy, take a seat!"
"Thank you, Father!"
After Liu Mingzhi took his seat, Li Zheng seemed to have thought of something. He looked at the position of the Tongxiang and narrowed his eyes thoughtfully!
"Liu Aiqing!"
"Yes, it's you, Liu Mingzhi, don't look around, I'm talking about you, don't worry, you are still the only adult named Liu above the court after you have been recovering from illness for so long!"
It was determined that Li Zheng was talking about himself and Liu Mingzhi walked out in a hurry!
"My son is here!"
"Liu Aiqing, something happened in the mutual market in Yingzhou. It affects the livelihood of millions of people in the twenty-seven prefectures in the North, as well as the national treasury. I have been thinking about it for a long time and it belongs to you!"
"My son is brave, please tell me in detail!"
"I plan to let you go to Yingzhou and Fuzhou to serve as the governor of two provinces for three years."
