"Your Highness?" Qing Mulan was stunned: "Which Highness?"
"Your Highness the Ninth Princess." Amei replied.
"Wu Yang is coming?" Qing Mulan's expression suddenly changed, she grabbed Amei's arm and asked, "Where is she?"
"It seems from the letter that I passed Fengxiang Mansion yesterday and should be at the Jialing River Ferry now."
Amei said: "Her Royal Highness the Princess said she would come to Xihewan to see the lady."
After saying that, he couldn't help but look up at Jin Feng.
After all, she was just a maid, and there was nothing she could do if Qing Mulan accepted the punishment.
It happened that at this time the Ninth Princess came.
Amei didn't believe that Jin Feng dared to punish Qing Mulan in front of the Ninth Princess.
When the Ninth Princess leaves, Qing Mulan will definitely go to see her off and will go directly back to Xichuan Mansion.
Jin Feng can't chase him to Xichuan and beat him with a military stick, right?
"What, they've all arrived at the Jialing River?"
Qing Mulan was anxious.
Take a boat from the Jialing River and go down the river. If you go quickly, you can reach Jinchuan in one day.
Even if the boatman wants to ensure the safety of the Ninth Princess, he will definitely be able to arrive in two days at most.
Thinking of this, Qing Mulan ran towards Jin Feng anxiously.
"Sir, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back to Xihewan with you today. Wuyang is coming and I have to go to the ferry to pick her up."
"Wuyang?"
Jin Feng was a little confused.
He had heard of Wuyang in his previous life, but from Qing Mulan's words, Wuyang seemed to be a person.
"Wuyang is the daughter of His Majesty and Concubine Qing's aunt. Her fiefdom is in Wuyang County, Yuzhou. Her title is also called Princess Wuyang." Qing Mulan explained.
"Your Highness the Ninth Princess? I remember that she seems to be unmarried. How can she leave the capital?"
Luo Lan mentioned the Ninth Princess many times in his letters. He knew that the Ninth Princess was Qing Mulan's cousin and took great care of the Jinchuan Chamber of Commerce's business in the capital, but he did not mention her title.
Hearing Jin Feng's question, Qing Mulan let out a long sigh: "She came to Jinchuan just for marriage."
"Marriage?" Jin Feng blurted out: "She is going to Tubo?"
"How did you know, sir?" Qing Mulan asked in surprise.
"It's not just lice on the monk's head - it's obvious."
Jin Feng said: "You said that the Ninth Princess came to Jinchuan for marriage. Who else in Jinchuan and even in Xichuan, except your brother, can be worthy of the Ninth Princess?
And your brother is already married, so the emperor will definitely not marry the Ninth Princess to him, so there is only one possibility left. The Ninth Princess is going to Tubo to get married, so she passed by Jinchuan."
"Sir, you are really amazing!"
Qing Mulan admired sincerely.
She only found out about this matter when she received a letter from the Ninth Princess some time ago. As a result, Jin Feng deduced it from just one sentence she said.
"Sir, Wuyang is leaving for Tubo. I guess I will never see her again in this life. She sent me another message. I must pick her up."
Qing Mulan asked: "Sir, after finishing Wuyang's affairs, can I go back and be punished?"
"This..." Jin Feng thought for a moment and nodded slightly: "Okay, when will the Ninth Princess arrive in Jinchuan?"
"If everything goes well, we can arrive at Jinchuan Ferry tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Qing Mulan said: "By the way, sir, Wuyang also said in the letter that he was going to Xihewan as a guest."
"Xihewan is just a small mountain village. Why is she going to Xihewan?" Jin Feng asked.
"Wuyang also has the blood of my Qing family, so he is very concerned about political and military affairs."
Qing Mulan said: "Sir, Wuyang admired him for defeating the party cavalry in Qingshui Valley. He told me in letters several times."
"I didn't expect that even the princess knew about me."
Jin Feng said: "Luo Lan also said in the letter to me that the Ninth Princess is very powerful."
"Wu Yang is indeed powerful, but she was born a girl by mistake, otherwise..."
At this point, even the careless Qing Mulan looked around, and only continued when he saw no outsiders: "If Wuyang is a prince, your majesty will definitely pass the crown prince's position to her. In that case, Dakang will be revived.
.”
"The evaluation is so high?" Jin Feng looked at Qing Mulan suspiciously.
He just agreed casually, but he didn't expect Qing Mulan to praise the Ninth Princess.
Why did most of the dynasties in the history of the previous life last only three to four hundred years?
Many people will attribute it to superstition, but this is not the case.
At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, most of the world's resources were in the hands of the royal family. The royal family had the greatest prestige. In order to appease the people after the war, the royal family often adopted a policy of recuperation and recuperation.
But as time goes by, the gentry class will gradually become stronger.
For example, even if the prime minister of the founding emperor retires, his family will still be very powerful and will still continue to plunder social resources to satisfy the development of his family.
The problem between one generation and two generations is not big, but once there is an emperor and courtiers, each emperor has his own team, and the number of nobles accumulated will be more and more.
Since the land and resources in the world are fixed, where do the resources to support the development of these noble clans come from?
First, in order to win over his team, the emperor sacrificed some royal interests and received rewards; second, he exploited the people.
As time went by, the royal family had fewer resources, and the interests of the people continued to be eroded.
This has led to Dakang’s current situation.
The gentry, large and small, were entrenched throughout Dakang. In order to satisfy their own luxurious life, they crazily exploited the people, causing the people to live in dire straits and solidifying classes.
After all, even if the prime minister's son can't become prime minister, he can still become a county governor, right?
The official distribution in the world is not enough for these gentry children, and it is becoming more and more difficult for scholars from poor families to get ahead.
In Jin Feng's view, today's Dakang is hopeless. How easy is it to revive it?
This is only possible if the entire Dakang gentry can be cleaned up from top to bottom and social resources can be redistributed to the people.
But if you do this, you will have to make enemies of the entire world of nobles, which is too difficult.
"Sir, I didn't say anything nonsense."
Qing Mulan said: "Wu Yang is really powerful. She helped approve many of His Majesty's memorials. This marriage to Tibet was also proposed by her herself in order to contain the party items."
"oh?"
There were not many princesses who could help the emperor approve memorials. The first one that popped into Jin Feng's mind was Wu Zetian.
At the beginning, she helped the emperor approve memorials, and slowly, she became a female empress.
"Your Majesty does not like political affairs. When he is upset, it is easy for him to approve government affairs at will."
Qing Mulan whispered: "Wuyang once wrote to me and said that for the sake of the people of the world, she is willing to remain unmarried in her life and help His Majesty handle government affairs in the palace.
But now that the situation in Dakang is too tense, and the civil strife in Tubo is almost over, Wuyang is thinking of trying to get Tubo to send troops to contain the party by making peace."
"Ninth Princess is a good idea."
Jin Feng nodded slightly, feeling some curiosity and admiration for the Ninth Princess.
