Chapter 16: Lu Yue is captured
Nasha sat up and said to my Zongzheng, "I only brought a hundred civil and military officials, who do you say is in charge of Bai Yi City? This is your national capital." ”
"Okay, I'll rest assured. Then I blew out the candles and went to sleep. Zong Zheng blew out the candle and ran to the bed.
Lu Yue walked to the door of Zongzheng's dormitory at this time, heard the voice inside, remembered the bits and pieces of Zongzheng from childhood to Great, sat on the stone steps at the door, cried silently, and cried all night.
The sky was just a little bright, Lu Yue got up and walked out of the palace, returned to his mansion, and watched Lu Hua wait for him all night, while Lu Hua was sleeping on the table.
"Brother, have you been waiting for me all night? Lu Yue woke up Lu Hua.
Lu Hua stood up in a daze, rubbed his eyes, looked at Lu Yue's red and swollen eyes crying, and dark circles, and couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at, brother?" Lu Yue looked at Lu Hua with red and swollen eyes.
"What's the matter, I'm happy for my sister, I haven't slept all night, right?" Lu Hua covered his mouth and smiled secretly.
"Well, I haven't slept all night, and my tears are almost dry. Let's go, let's go to the court. After Lu Yue finished speaking, she staggered and started, and she had not slept all night outside the gate of Zongzheng's dormitory, and she shed tears all night, lack of sleep, and did not have much strength to walk.
Lu Hua looked at Lu Yue's back and muttered, "This Zongzheng is too bad to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, how can I say that I am also the sister of my childhood sweetheart, and I don't say that I will take care of it, alas, I am young and vigorous! Haha, my sister will get her wish." Lu Hua happily followed Lu Yue into the Jinluan Palace.
The ministers saw that next to the dragon chair, there was another phoenix chair, and there were more civil and military officials of the Jin Kingdom in the Jinluan Palace, and the ministers knew that the two countries and one capital should be determined.
After another moment, Jong Seong and Nasha walked together to their chairs and sat down.
"In the future, the early dynasty will be like this, and the two countries will go together, by the way, let you see how the Jin Kingdom went to the early dynasty, and learn a little. Zong Zheng spoke first.
"Everyone, Aiqing, after the Jin Kingdom, you will go to the early dynasty with the Zongzheng Empire, and you will focus on state affairs, and don't be embarrassed in Jinluan Hall if you are bored and quarrelsome. Nasha said to her civil and military officials.
"Is there anything you want to play?" asked Zongzheng to his hundred officials.
"The minister has something to do! Two countries have one capital, so who is responsible for the security of Bai Yi City?" Lu Hua bowed to Zong Zheng.
Zong Zheng looked at Nasha and explained, "This is my imperial brother, who is responsible for managing all the soldiers and horses in Bai Yi City, and in the future, he can find him for the security of Bai Yi City." ”
"You all heard that, didn't we come with a single soldier this time, and we are looking for this general about the security of Bai Yi City. Nasha told her own officials.
The hundred officials looked at Lu Hua one after another, and replied in unison, "I know Your Majesty!"
Zong Zheng looked at Lu Hua, "Do you have anything else to do?"
"Your Majesty, the new Jinluan Palace will be completed in about seven days, and the mansion of the civil and military officials of the Jin Kingdom is estimated to take two months. "The Ministry of Labor reported to Zongzheng.
Zongzheng looked at Nasha, and Nasha replied to Zongzheng's Ministry of Works, "It's okay, it's not in a hurry." ”
Lu Yue walked out of the ranks of hundreds of officials at this time, and bowed listlessly, "Zhao Congjun has returned to his hometown to deal with the drought, and the minister wants to go to the Qin State, where the development of trade is too slow, by the way, go and see my master Shang Shen Win." ”
"Shang Shen Win Cheng?" Nasha, the Empress of the Jin Kingdom, and her civil and military officials were all surprised, except for Shang Shen Win Cheng, what other countries knew about this world had not yet happened.
Zong Zheng looked at Lu Yue's red and swollen eyes, and there were dark circles under his eyes, and looked at Nasha to explain, "This is my imperial sister Lu Yue, Lu Hua is his own brother, she is in charge of the country's salt, iron, grain, and various commerce and international trade, and is the only apprentice of the god of commerce." ”
The civil and military officials of the Jin Kingdom seemed to be shocked by Lu Yue, and they all looked at Lu Yue in surprise.
"Okay! Let's go tomorrow! Seeing that the imperial sister should not have slept last night, next time she will go down to the court, and sleep well. Zong Zheng said to Lu Yue.
Lu Yue retreated into the ranks of civil and military officials, looking at Nasha beside Zong Zheng, with tears in his eyes.
Lu Hua secretly muttered to himself, "Your imperial sister went to your dormitory last night and didn't return all night, you don't know if you slept or not, haha." ”
"If there is nothing else, it will be returned to the hundred officials of the Jin Kingdom. Zong Zheng finished speaking.
An official of the Jin Kingdom walked out of their crowd of hundreds of officials, knelt down and said to Nasha, "Your Majesty, there are more than 30 cities in northern China where bandits are very serious, they are relatively scattered, and the places where they live are relatively hidden, so it is not easy to exterminate, I hope Your Majesty will ruling." ”
"I will abolish a rule first, let's abolish the bow ceremony like the Zongzheng Empire, the millions of troops have never been afraid, and the bandits have also been brought to the court for discussion?"
"The courtier knows!" the official stood up.
"Anything else?" asked Nasha to her own officials.
Another official stood up and said, "Back to Your Majesty, the prefect of Jutong has bent the law for bribes, looted the people's fat and ointment, and asked Your Majesty to punish him." ”
"I know, who else is there to do?" Nasha asked the civil and military officials, and seeing that no one spoke, she and Zongzheng looked at each other and announced their retirement from the dynasty.
After Zong Zheng and Nasha returned to the dormitory, Zong Zheng asked Nasha, "Aren't you very good at governing the country?" Why don't you let my king General Zixi take one of you generals and teach you how to suppress bandits, Wang Zixi is in our country, but he is specifically responsible for suppressing bandits, and when Zhao Congjun comes back, I will introduce you to him, he is my eldest brother, the eldest son of the Song Kingdom, and he is the best at punishing corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and teach your officials well. ”
Nasha lay on the bed and said, "I'm going to sleep, I'll talk about it later, but your royal sister seems to have a lot on her mind." When she comes back from Qin, let's go and have a look. ”
Zong Zheng also lay on the bed and closed his eyes, "Yes, I feel that she is weird, she has always been lively, why are you so depressed today, I don't want to, I'm sleepy too, go to sleep." ”
Lu Yue returned home, walked into his room, cried for a while, and fell asleep. After all, I didn't sleep all night and was really sleepy.
In the evening, Lu Hua came back from patrol, and Ma Huixing called Lu Hua.
"Hua'er, your sister hasn't been out of the house since she came back in the morning, and she has slept all day, nothing will happen, right?"
"Mother, you still don't know about the young man's affairs, she went to find Zongzheng last night and came back in the morning, you said she wouldn't be sleepy......"
Lu Hua deliberately said halfway, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and ate the meal.
"The female university is not staying, but fortunately, the fat and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, alas, let's eat!" Lu Yuqi seemed to understand what Lu Hua meant, and also ate the meal.
The next morning, Lu Yue had breakfast, got into a carriage, and went to Qin.
The state of Qin did not border the Zongzheng Empire, with the Jin state to the east and the Tang state to the south.
Lu Yue's arrival in Qin was through the territory of Jin to Xianyang, the capital of Qin.
When Lu Yue entered Xianyang City, he found the address of Yingcheng, who was called the God of Commerce, and walked in.
"Master, are you at home? I'm a disciple Lu Yue!"
This is an old man with black hair and a childish face, walking out in a Taoist robe.
looked at Lu Yue and shouted, "Several dead girls, I thought you were the head of the business department of the Zongzheng Empire, and you forgot the master." ”
"Oh no, I'm not here to see you. Lu Yue put down his burden, took out two jars of good wine, and said to Yingcheng, "Master, there are still some dishes here, I have made them, let's have a good meal with the master and apprentice." ”
"Okay! I'll be waiting in the house for your best food. Ying Cheng took the two jars of wine and returned to the house.
When Lu Yue finished frying the dish and brought it to the table, Ying Cheng had already filled the two bowls with wine.
The two raised the wine bowls, and Ying Cheng asked Lu Yue, "How many days are you going to stay?"
Lu Yue took a sip of wine and said, "If you don't go back, you will accompany the master here in the future." ”
Ying Cheng found that Lu Yue didn't look at him when he spoke, so he said, "Didn't the master teach you psychology? This is the basic skill of business negotiation. ”
Lu Yue looked at Yingcheng, "Master, do you say that every man is?"
Ying Cheng smiled, took a sip of wine, ate a mouthful of food, and replied, "Radish greens have their own love, you can't say that all men are lustful, love can be human nature, most men are appreciative of beauty, as for whether they are lustful or not, it depends on the nature of men, and everything cannot be generalized." ”
After three rounds of drinking, Lu Yue was overwhelmed by alcohol, and his face was flushed and said to Yingcheng, "Master, I and his childhood sweetheart, the minister proposed that I be her queen, he actually covered up the past, he actually liked an empress who had only known him for less than a month, I admit that I am not as beautiful as her, but I really like him, I have liked it since I was a child, alas! ”
"Today, our master and apprentice will meet again after a long absence, let's talk about some happiness, you can taste this. Win Cheng handed Lu Yue a piece of beef jerky.
Lu Yue took it, took a bite, and said, "Wow! It's delicious! It's strong, it's fragrant! Where did the master come from?"
Ying Cheng wiped his mouth, "This is Mongolian beef jerky, the local people mainly raise cattle, sheep and horses, this thing is very cheap, and Tang Shu Jin Qin Zongzheng Empire This thing is very expensive, I plan to go to Mongolia tomorrow, buy some to Qin to try, good, you can sell from Mongolia to Tang Shu Liaojin and your country, and bring down the price of beef jerky in various countries, and it can be regarded as doing something good for the people." ”
"Mmmm, I'll go with my master to see the prairie and relax. By the way, master, why didn't you see my master?" Lu Yuehong's face fluttered, still drinking.
"It's been gone for more than a thousand years. Ying Cheng tilted his head and sighed.
"Master, are you really an immortal?" Lu Yue rested his chin on the edge of the table, looking at Yingcheng.
"Sort of. It's a pity that I'm a mortal now, and you may not believe it when I say it, but I was reincarnated into this world. "Win Cheng drank wine.
"Master, have you ever loved Master?" Lu Yue looked at Ying Cheng, who was drinking.
Ying Cheng cocked Erlang's legs, ate vegetables, and drank wine.
replied, "Well, you have two sisters, twins, one is named Feng Yan and the other is Feng Wei. Forget it, let's not talk about it. Come, drink. ”
"Master, I can't drink anymore, I'll go to bed in the first room, and I'll clean up the food tomorrow morning." Lu Yue staggered into the side room.
Shang Shen Yingcheng is proficient in all kinds of business methods, never accepts apprentices, Lu Yue is her only apprentice, because Lu Yue is a bit like her second wife's daughter, so he accepts her as an apprentice.
Usually win into a hard study and business, travel around the world, help various countries, especially poor countries, make the country a little richer, the king of each country has a high-ranking official to keep him, he refused one by one, usually his economic source is to help the country to give some reward, also called the rich rival country, and he almost does not live at home all the year round, so he bought three houses in one courtyard.
If he came the next day, Lu Yue would not be able to see Win Cheng, who planned to go to Mongolia the next day and try a batch of beef jerky in Qin, not to make money, but to lower the price of beef jerky.
After Yingcheng finished drinking, he went back to the main room to sleep.
The next day, Ying Cheng packed his luggage, and seeing that Lu Yue didn't go out, he went to knock on the door, and after knocking for a long time, Lu Yue spoke.
"Master, I drank too much last night, and you're letting me sleep. ”
Hearing this, Ying Cheng understood, left a letter, and went to Mongolia alone.
Lu Yue didn't sleep that night at the gate of Zongzheng, and he cried all night, heartbroken, although he returned to his house and slept for a day, his fatigue still did not decrease, and he traveled a long way to Qin to find a win, and his body was not relieved at all.
I drank so much wine yesterday, and under the paralysis of alcohol, the feelings that had been suppressed for a long time were released, and I slept well under the drunkenness.
Lu Yue woke up, felt a lot lighter, got dressed, and planned to go to Yingcheng, pushed open the door, and found that the letter caught in the crack of the door fell to the ground, Lu Yue picked it up and opened the envelope.
It reads: Apprentice, stay here with me, seeing that you sleep so soundly, I didn't take you to Mongolia, I am quiet here, you are so at ease, you have nothing to do to wander around in Qin, it's good to relax, don't rush back. I'll be back in a month or two.
After reading the letter, Lu Yue went to the kitchen to cook some food and ate it himself.
I said to myself, "It's so good to live alone! It's so easy and free!"
Zong Zheng and Nasha are still in the early dynasty.
"Your Majesty, the State of Qin said that he had arrested Lord Lu Yue and said that he would exchange it for a hundred cities of the Jin Kingdom. Han Sai looked at Zong Zheng.
"This Emperor of the Qin State has too much sulfuric acid in his brain, right? The people of my Zongzheng Empire will exchange the city of the Jin State for it, is it possible?" The angry Zongzheng slapped his thigh.
"Your Majesty, there is one more thing, the Tang State has sent an army of 600,000 troops to our country, and they want to take half of the cities belonging to the original Jin State. Han Sai continued.
"Immediately send Marshal Yelu to lead an army of 300,000 to attack the Tang army, it was for the sake of the face of the five princes before, and this time there will be no mercy!" Zong Zheng stood up.
An official of the Jin Kingdom stood up and said to Nasha, "Your Majesty, Shi Lushan, the king of Zhenbei, led an army of 100,000 and has rebelled, please make a decision." ”
"This is easy to do, Marshal Xiahou Min is still attacking the Han State, just let Marshal Zhuge Battalion lead 300,000 troops to quell the rebellion. Queen Nasha put her hands on her knees.
"Tell the envoy of the Qin State that if he wants the city, I can give him half of the city of the Tang State, and let them go back to China to ask the Emperor of the Qin State, if it is okay, come to me again, if my imperial sister Lu Yue is missing a hair, I will slaughter the people and animals of the Qin State, and there will be no grass!" Zong Zheng left the Jinluan Palace after speaking.
Seeing Zong Zheng leave angrily, Nasha hurriedly announced that her hundred officials had retired from the court, and told Han Sai that they would also disperse and go after Zong Zheng herself.
Nasha chased after Zongzheng, and as he walked into the imperial study, she watched Zongzheng take the Red Flame Heaven Killing Sword, and was about to walk out of the imperial study.
"Where are you going?" Nasha stopped Somasa.
"I'm going to Xianyang, Qin State, to kill that dog emperor and save the imperial sister back!" Zong Zheng, who was angry, trembled all over.
Nasha slowly pressed Somasong into the chair and said to him, "You take your breath first. Qin Guo may have just heard about the imperial sister's trip to Xianyang, and he may not necessarily catch the imperial sister, under normal circumstances, they should take the imperial sister's belongings, which is reasonable. Now that they haven't taken anything, maybe the royal sister is still safe now. ”
"Then what do you say?" Zong Zheng looked at Nasha with anger on his face.
Nasha snatched Zongzheng's Red Flame Sky Sword and hung it on the wall.
looked at Zong Zheng, "After they return to China, see if their emperor agrees to give them half of the Tang Kingdom's city, I think it is Qin and Tang Guo who have discussed, we are now trying to find a way to repel **, it would be better if we could take Tang Guo, Tang Guo's thorn in the eye will have to be pulled out sooner or later." ”
"Okay! Just do as you say! Half a month later, if the envoy of the Qin State does not come back, I will do what I say, and let the people and animals of the Qin State be slaughtered and not a single grass will grow!" Zong Zheng lowered his head, looked at the ground, and stepped on it hard, shattering the ground.
Lu Yue cleaned the yard and washed all the clothes, sheets and covers.
I went to the market to buy vegetables with a vegetable basket on my shoulder, and heard passers-by whispering one after another.
"Did you hear? The emperor caught the imperial sister of the Zongzheng Empire and asked the Zongzheng Empire to exchange the hundred cities of the Jin Kingdom. ”
Lu Yue looked at this group of people and smiled secretly, and suddenly a group of people came and grabbed Lu Yue and brought him to the yamen.
