The details of those two people were quickly clarified.

"Concubine Niangniang?" Sang Xia frowned, "Isn't she grounded in the Splendid Palace?" ”

"She has been crowning the harem for many years, and it is not surprising that there are some means." An Pingzhi turned his head to the tea cup in his hand, "She chose the right time at this time, as a mother, knowing that her son was going to go on the expedition and was desperate to see off her son, this reason is not easy for the emperor to pursue too much, she is the biological mother of the eldest prince, the eldest prince has just left on the front foot, and the emperor can't always make her sad on the back foot, with the heart of the eldest prince, she must have begged for mercy before leaving." ”

Sang Xia doesn't like He Wanru, no one can like any woman other than his father and mother, Sang Xia feels sorry for his mother, so he naturally hates He Wanru.

But if you really want to say how deep the hatred is, it can't be counted, after all, Sang Yirong didn't tell her about what happened back then, she is just a little curious now, "How did Xu Zhenzhen get on the line with her?" ”

"I asked people to check, most of them have something to do with Xu Jin."

Sang Xia frowned slightly, "The Xu family is still hidden in the dark now?" How could my mother tolerate him? ”

"I think it's not time yet, the leader of the Xu family's affairs must want to solve it by himself, you ......"

"I know, I won't interfere, I can't interfere, I'll just take care of my current mess." Sang Xia propped his chin and said, "Being a traitor, the Xu family doesn't seem to get much benefit." ”

The emperor himself came out of the battlefield, he has fought side by side with people countless times, and his hatred for the betrayer is not weaker than anyone else, how can he really reuse Xu Jin, Xu Jin will only take this step when he is dizzy, he is open and honest to find a way to recover, and it is far stronger than now, with his talent, maybe he will be reused.

An Pingzhi secretly sighed that it was a pity, Xu Jin was indeed a person with some ability. It would be nice if it could be used by them.

The situation in Jiangnan gradually stabilized under the auspices of Sanxia, and the grain was planted at a suitable time, and when the flood season in September passed, the imperial court finally began to send people to deal with the aftermath.

The original miserable conscription has made the people rejoice this year, and the men of every family are vying to go, and the young people who have not yet reached the age have also falsely reported their years to compete for a place, because there is something to eat.

This is what Sanxia argues for. The final result of arguing with everyone.

The people have nothing to eat or shelter for. If you have to prepare your own food to serve in the conscription, I don't know how many more people will die, and there are enough people in Jiangnan who have died this year.

Of course. Grain can only be found by Sangxia, although the household department has saved some money in recent years, but the grain and grass need to be sent to the front line in an endless stream, and there is really no spare energy to take care of others.

Sanxia expressed understanding. Carried this matter with all his might, in the end. This does not conflict with what she is responsible for, no matter whether the people are subject to forced labor or not, she must continue to send grain to Jiangnan before the harvest. It is said that there are fewer rats in Jiangnan, most of them died of starvation, and those who still have a breath left are skinny.

Sang Xia looked forward to the good news and looked forward to the long neck. It wasn't until mid-September that Tao Qingyun finally waited for him.

There is no need for Sang Xia to ask, Tao Qingyun rarely hooked the corners of his lips. "Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life."

Sang Xia's eyes were suddenly red with excitement, and his heart was so successful that he couldn't say anything for a while.

Grain is a mountain that presses on her, and the grain of Cangyun Country has been scavenged by her in various ways over the past few days, and the household department has not been able to level the price of grain, and other prices have also soared, and the people are complaining.

She had most of the reasons here, but she had no choice, she had to take care of those who were dying of starvation first.

Even if the harvest is not far from now, she can't be happy, she has already hollowed out the foundation, the army is a big food eater, in addition to taxes, the court may also forcibly collect a part, the people don't have much left, it is difficult to survive until July next year.

The problem can only be solved by bringing in foreign food, and it must be in large quantities.

Fortunately, there is now the light of day.

"What do they need?"

"As you might expect, they need weapons, but they don't want ready-made weapons either, they want mines."

"Iron ore?"

"Yes."

Sang Xia weighed it in his heart and nodded, "Yes, but no matter what their amount is, it is impossible to be completely satisfied, I will go to the palace, Brother Tao has worked hard all the way, eat something first and rest, and the others are not in a hurry." ”

Tao Qingyun was really tired, and in order to rush back as soon as possible, he changed a few horses, which would not be polite, dragging stiff steps to eat.

"Will this enter the palace? It's almost time for the palace gate to close. ”

Sang Xia has not changed out of his official uniform, and he is just ready to leave casually, "I can't drag it out, if I don't solve the matter for a day, I won't be able to let go of my heart for a day, if this matter can be planned well, the pressure on the household department will be much smaller, and the people will be able to breathe a sigh of relief, the involvement is too big, I can't wait." ”

Sighing, Sang Xia muttered, "Sometimes I think about what is so good about this hard-working official, so many people want to occupy a position. ”

"The official of the corpse vegetarian meal is comfortable, there are a few of you like this, go ahead, it's getting dark."

This is the first time that Sang Xia has entered the palace at this point, and Xia Zhenming knows better than anyone that she is not here to talk to her, I am afraid that something urgent has happened.

The country has not been very stable this year, Xia Zhenming really didn't dare to think in a good direction, and he had already thought about a lot of things in the waiting time.

Seeing Sang Xia come in, he didn't wait for her to salute and said, "What happened?" Grain-related? ”

"Yes." Sansha simply didn't bow anymore, which made her happy, and she was happy to share her happiness with others, especially in front of this person, and even brought out some show-offs.

"Does the emperor know about Lushan Kingdom?"

"A small country to the south."

"Yes, it is indeed a small country, but it is a big country that can grow three crops of grain a year, as far as the minister knows, only Lushan country rice is cheap and does not hurt the people, because they are not short of families."

Xia Zhenming already knew what she was going to say, but how could this be possible, "The terrain of Lushan Country is steep and extremely xenophobic. ”

"Yes, but they also have weaknesses, miasma malaria is more threatening to their lives than foreign enemies, and this is precisely the disease that Brother Wen's master has studied for a long time, he went to Lushan Country for me, and I just got news back today."

At this time, Sang Xia was particularly high-spirited, "They need weapons, and they don't use our finished products, but want the iron ore to be refined by themselves, as long as we keep the iron ore stricter, give the amount to be smaller, and then use other things they need to make up for the shortage, the mountain of grain that is pressed on the head of Cangyun Country can be moved." ”

Fan Dong cautiously looked up at the emperor and knew that the matter was basically done, and the emperor with such a pleasant face usually appeared when Lord Sang was there.

"There will be dissent between the DPRK and China." (To be continued)
