Who do you save

The county government is actually very large, in addition to the main hall in front, there are four inner courtyards in the back, it seems that when the county government was built, the governor wanted to bring his family over, so he made so many inner courtyards. Pinshu.com

After all, these houses have a foundation, but they are a little old, and they can be restored to their original appearance with a whitewash decoration, and they can return the grandeur and majesty of the county government.

Mu Xiaoluo's bloody decoration contains two layers of meaning, one is indeed to make the house she lives in comfortable, and the other is to give the five major families a little deterrent, so that they can see that the new prince is not an ordinary official, but His Royal Highness the prince, and the financial resources do not need to look at people's faces.

Mu Xiaoluo also planned to decorate and set up a banquet in the county government, and invite people with heads and faces in the capital to participate, which can be regarded as the first time the fourth prince Wu Mingyu came to Liwei!

She discussed her plan with Gu Qing and Chu lightly, and Gu Qing said weakly: "You two can do this! Don't count on me......!

His tone was a little desperate, and Mu Xiaoluo and Chu Qingfang were sad when they heard it. originally expected that Gu Qing's health would be better after recuperating in Jincheng, but it was worse than better, which made the two of them worry in private, and they didn't know if he could survive until Wu Guanzi arrived.

Mu Xiaoluo and Chu Qingfang discussed, although they didn't know if the scorpion bead had the effect of relieving the love poison, the two of them still ground the scorpion bead into powder, and added a little powder to the medicine for Gu Qing to eat.

Mu Xiaoluo and Chu Qingmad didn't discuss much about this matter, even if the Scorpion Bead was the only antidote for Chu Qingmad and Gu Qing, Chu Qingmad would not take it by himself, because neither of them could ignore Gu Qing's weakness.

Chu Qing's poison has no obvious symptoms at present, and he still has time to boil it! And Gu Qing, no one knows if he will have the life to wait until he finds the real antidote in the next moment. So both of them tacitly chose to save Gu Qing!

Mu Xiaoluo's hands trembled a little when she first mixed the scorpion bead powder in the medicine for Gu Qing...... If this is the only chance for the two of them, then what she is doing is choosing Gu Qing's life and giving up Chu Qing's crazy life, can she really push her lover to the side of death with her own hands?

Thinking about it, I fell into tears unconsciously, watching the tears fall into the medicine and make a circle of ripples, I feel that my heart hurts so much, the original taste of choice is so bitter!

A pair of hands wrapped her into his arms, Chu lightly kissed her on the neck, and said softly, "It's hard to choose, isn't it?"

"Hmm......" Mu Xiaoluo had more tears falling on his hand around her waist, choked up and couldn't speak.

"Gu Qing is my brother...... I am also your friend, and I am your husband...... That's why you're so conflicted!"

Chu lightly unfolded his arms, let her lean in his arms, restrained her usual frivolity, and sighed softly: "Do you remember when you asked me a question?"

"......" Mu Xiaoluo tried to think about what question she asked.

"You give me a short time...... Ask me, 'You and Shui Pei have been poisoned together, time is pressing, I can only save one, who can I save?'" Chu Qingfang reminded.

"Who are you saving?" Mu Xiaoluo now feels that she was a little difficult for a strong man at the beginning, in such a short time, even if he answers the question, what can he say? It's not that she or Shui Pei doesn't matter, but it's too important to choose.

"Do you want to know my answer now?" Chu Qing sniffed her greedily, and said in a low voice: "I will save the water and ......"

Mu Xiaoluo's body was a little stiff, this answer is normal...... It also hurts......

"I'll save the water...... But you're dead...... I'll die with you!"

Chu Qing's slender fingers touched the tears on her face, and he sighed lowly: "I have already lost you once...... That was the biggest regret of my life...... So I won't fail you again...... If I really have to choose again, I'm willing to die with you!"

There is no love in life, and there is nothing to fear in death......

Mu Xiaoluo heard what he didn't say, so she was stunned, did he have feelings for her to the point where he was willing to die with her?

She always thought that he felt more guilty about her than she liked her, but it turned out to be the biggest misunderstanding!

Gu Qing was not in good health, and most of the things that came forward had to be fought by Chu lightly, so whether he wanted to or not, the four princes were still up to him, and he couldn't bear to let Mu Xiaoluo run around with a woman's house!

Fortunately, Gu Qing's several close guards are all confidants, and they also know that Chu Qingyan is the real fourth prince, so there is no inconvenience in changing people.

Jiang Yu and the others were not very familiar with Gu Qing before, he was sick most of the time on the road, and he didn't deal with him much, and no one noticed anything abnormal when he changed people, so they all understood his illness and tried to help him share some work.

When you first arrive, you have a lot to do. The county government was decorated, and Qian Shuang chartered an inn not far from the county government under the instruction of Mu Xiaoluo, and they left some people to guard the inn, and some people devoted themselves to the decoration work of the county government.

Chu Qingyan followed Mu Xiaoluo's advice, hired Qian Shuang as his master, and began to take over the work of the Jincheng County Ya. The original governor Yuan Hua was found on the second day, and when he heard that the fourth highness had taken over the fief, he was unwilling to stay longer for a day, and he had to return to Beijing to reunite with his family in a hurry.

Chu Qing thought wildly that he had guarded Jincheng for many years without the power of the imperial court, and he had no merit and hard work, rewarded him with one hundred taels of silver, and specially asked Qian Shuang to write a letter of recommendation to him and bring it back to Beijing to report on his work.

Yuan Hua was grateful, took Chu Qingfang's hand and said that if he didn't have a wife and children at home, he would stay in Jincheng and not leave. Mu Xiaoluo and Chu sent him out of the city, saying that whenever he wanted to come back, they would welcome him and his family.

Yuan Hua finally reluctantly left, throwing Mu Xiaoluo a lot of problems. Winter is coming to an end, and spring is coming. Spring ploughing, tea mountain, can't be mistaken, Chu Qingyan and Mu Xiaoluo are so busy that they can't use it for two days a day.

Fortunately, the separated people came to meet one after another, which made the two breathe a sigh of relief.

The first to come back were Jiang Hao and Qingbo, this was the road that Mu Xiaoluo was most concerned about, and the money they brought was related to whether they could stand in Jincheng.

Mu Xiaoluo had planned for the worst, as long as she could bring back half of their money, she would be satisfied. I don't know if the two of them are too strong in their ability to do things, or the people of this era are too pure, and the money hidden in the coffin didn't attract anyone to watch along the way, and they brought it all safe and sound.

When Mu Xiaoluo heard Jiang Hao and Qingbo's reports, she patted her chest comfortingly, and said with a smile: "God help us! This is the best gift to let us gain a firm foothold in Shudi!"

With this money, it is much easier to get things done. Ge An and Old Man Lu, who had inspected all the way, brought the second good news, they had seen a lot of barren worlds along the way, all of which were barren due to lack of people to plant. Ge'an asked all the villages, some families are willing to sell their land to them, and some people are only willing to rent to them, but the rent charged is very low.

Ge An is very good at doing things, and the recorded information is densely packed with several large pages, Mu Xiaoluo is a little dizzy, but she is also very moved, this all represents the pure heart of others!

Everyone twists into a rope and works hard in one place, are you afraid that you will not live a better and better life like a family?

When Yuan Ming and Gu Meifeng came back, the inn was even more lively, and Mu Xiaoluo was relieved to see that Niuniu and Yuan Ming had a good relationship, and followed Yuan Ming in and out like a little tail. When Yuan Ming came in to report to her, Niuniu also followed. After pestering Mu Xiaoluo to ensure that she was free and began to teach her to read, he leaned next to Yuan Ming and opened a pair of watery eyes to watch the two talk.

Yuan Ming was ordered by Mu Xiaoluo to buy several tea mountains and tea factories along the way, and he negotiated everything, and only after reporting to Mu Xiaoluo, he took someone to hand over the silver office. Mu Xiaoluo inquired in detail about the planting of the tea mountain, and found Qian Shuang again, and asked him to be responsible for the management of a few veteran points. She wants to personally train them how to manage the tea mountains and make tea with a better sense of mouth.

She wants to play her own brand when the spring tea is on the market, this is their first big business in Shudi, and if they do it well, they can not only gain a firm foothold in Shudi, but also feed their big group of people.

Mu Xiaoluo took a fancy to the land behind the county government in Dongcheng District, and she planned to spend all the money she earned on these lands, not only to expand the county office, but also to build this place into the most prosperous area of the entire Jincheng.

What about the five major families? Mu Xiaoluo was very confident, feeling that as long as the focus of business shifted, the sphere of influence created by the Gong family would naturally be weakened.

How can they interrupt their monopoly in the silk weaving industry? Mu Xiaoluo pinned this high hope on Qingbo, who she had seen and seen in embroidery, and it was indeed unparalleled. As long as they do better than the Gong family, why worry that the leading position of silk weaving does not belong to them?

It's just that Mu Xiaoluo doesn't understand silk at all, and all her knowledge only stays in the beautiful fashion albums of her cousin in the past, she doesn't think that those modern fashion designs will be of any help to silk weaving, so she doesn't dare to be reckless, she just told Qingbo her intentions and let her do it herself......

Five families

The county government here has just begun to decorate, and it has alarmed the five major families.

The patriarch of the Yang family took the lead, and the patriarchs of the five major families met at the largest Yunlong restaurant in Xicheng District to discuss what attitude to use to deal with the four princes.

This Yunlong Restaurant is the industry of the Yang family, the Yang family operates a wine industry in Jincheng, and the wine produced is famous far and wide, and the restaurant tea house is just a sideline.

Yang patriarch Yang Xi is an old man who is unwilling to be lonely, he loves wine all his life, and he likes to join in the fun and listen to gossip on weekdays. As soon as I heard the rumors that the four princes had transformed the county government, I quietly ran to see it.

not only looked at it himself, but also gathered the patriarchs of the five major families and wanted to gossip about the four princes and their husbands. Let's see if these two people are embroidered pillows and a bag of grass in the eyes of everyone, can they continue to bully or do they have the strength to threaten their status......

Xie Weihong, who had been rescued by Chu Qingfang, was the youngest among the five patriarchs, and as soon as he heard Yang Xi's summons, he came to Yunlong Restaurant early.

He came a little flustered, he didn't know how the five major families were going to deal with the four princes, Chu Qingyan had the grace of reinvention for him, he said that he would not embarrass them......

However, if the five major families insist on dealing with them, it is useless for him to oppose them alone! If the uncle can stand on his side, then there is still a chance of victory, but this is a matter involving the interests of the family, will the uncle be willing? He will not regard him as a traitor to Jincheng!

Xie Weihong's uncle Luo Linhai is the patriarch of the Luo family, and when it comes to the Luo family, it is impossible not to mention the uniqueness of Jincheng. The custom of Bashu is that no matter whether the people build mansions, houses, bridges, roads, excavate ponds, build tombs, or explore salt wells, mine copper, iron ore, tin ore, and plant large areas of fruit trees, mulberry trees, etc., they will ask shamans to see "feng shui".

In particular, the exploration of salt wells is more of a test of the ability of feng shui masters because of the large investment, high cost, and immediate verification.

The value of salt wells in Shuzhong is extremely high, in other words, the value of a salt well is at least equivalent to one hundred and fifty acres of the best fertile land near Jincheng. If a feng shui master chooses the wrong place and does not explore the salt spring, it is enough to bankrupt a medium-sized family, and the feng shui master will have to pay a heavy price, which on the other hand, can also show the importance of the feng shui master.

The Luo family is such a feng shui family, and Luo Linhai is also a famous feng shui master. Therefore, although the Luo family's power is not as wide as Gong Jiaguang, its reputation among the five major families and even the entire people of Jincheng is very high and respected.

No one would want to be an enemy of a feng shui master unless absolutely necessary, this is already an unwritten rule. Xie Weihong felt that if Luo Linhai could help the four princes speak, the other families would not go unanswered, but it seemed difficult to persuade his uncle to agree......

The Yan family, the tail of the five families, is a scholar clan and operates mines. The Yan family was born as a blacksmith at the earliest, because the family was rich in iron ore resources, and the people in the family did not lose the tradition of ironsmithing, and they would learn from each other about the skills of ironmaking.

It has become a common practice in the clan to fight bravely and ruthlessly, everyone speaks with strength, and it is absolutely impossible for people who have no ability to make them admire. Even the position of patriarch is not respected by the eldest son like other families, but regardless of origin, each competes according to his strength.

Therefore, Yan Junlang, who just turned thirty years old this year, can sit on the position of patriarch, otherwise how could he be the patriarch with the son of a groom!

Xie Weihong arrived at Yunlong Restaurant, Yan Junlang and Luo Linhai also came, and several people respected Yang Xi, and they didn't dare to hold it up in front of him, only Gong Zhenghai, the patriarch of the Gong family, was late.

Although a few people didn't say anything, they didn't think so, this Gong Zhenghai is becoming more and more arrogant, and the influence of the self-sustaining Gong family on Jincheng is getting bigger and bigger, so he doesn't care about everyone anymore, and he doesn't want to think about it, relying on his Gong family, can he support Jincheng?
