Chapter 224: The Return of Yule to the West (2)
"The general of the secret department is my bloody brother, he has a lady of the Tang family, named the county lord of Changping, and he still owes me a big favor. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info If you go to them first, if General Mi Jie can send someone to send you back to Yanqi, probably no one will dare to embarrass you. Feng Ling thought that the Yule Tuzi clan had lost ground in Yanqi, and she might not be able to live in peace when she went back, and Ashina's station was not far from Yanqi, and she might be able to support the scene.
In a hurry, the long set was out of place, Feng Ling spread out the pen and paper, wrote a letter concisely, dripped candle wax, took the Gu Fang seal he carried with him and pressed it, and taught Yule Tuzi to put it away.
"Wind Spirit." She seriously grabbed Feng Ling's hand, "The two of us are the same people, Chang'an City really can't lock us, the vast wilderness outside is the place to go." How many days can Chang'an City lock you up? ā
The wind spirit lowered his head and muttered: "Ayan...... He, how can I leave him. ā
At the door, the elderly maidservant knocked back and forth, saying that the caravan was urging and was about to leave.
Yuletuz stood up, his eyes turned red again, and he choked up, "I'm leaving." I am the only one in Chang'an City who has a heart-to-heart with you, and what I Yule Tuzi recognizes is a lifelong one. Later, when you go back to the western frontier, let's drink and ride horses again to see whose equestrian skills are better. ā
Feng Ling's eyes were sour, and with tears in his eyes, he sent her to the gate of the temple. "I made a note of it, and when the days are stable in the future, I will go to the western frontier to visit you, and you are not allowed to rely on this."
Yule Tuzi nodded desperately on one wall, and got into the carriage on the other. The body shook slightly, carrying all the hopes of Yule Tuzi and walked forward, the curtain on the wall of the car moved, poked out half of her face, smiled at Feng Ling, and said loudly: "Yile, remember to come and see me, Long Si is waiting." ā
ā¦ā¦
Yule Tuzi is gone, and Fu Tanyan has also started to go to Goryeo, and the entire Chang'an City is more than half empty in terms of Fengling. Feng Ling spent a whole day telling Xingye about how Yiwulu led the caravan with the army in the past, and how he was entrusted by the delay to escort the wife and daughter of the King of Yanqi.
Xingye was full of emotion when she heard it, "Therefore, in the past, the lady gave Yule Honghu a hand stove, and she gave birth to a lot of affection in the future." ā
"How can a hand stove have such a big effect, it's just like-minded." The wind spirit laughed and laughed, and suddenly felt that the past was fleeting, and it was far away.
This aroused the fascination of Xingye for no reason: "The lady always says how the western Xinjiang is, Xingye has never been out of Chang'an since it was born, and I really want to see the oasis city outline in the Gobi wind and smoke with my own eyes." ā
A few days later, it's February. Edicts were posted everywhere in the city, and the tax and commercial orders were implemented. The wording of the edict is very resolute, each merchant is taxed according to the amount of profits, if there is a concealment of business profits to avoid tax purposes, the shop will be closed and audited, until the money is made up, and then the shop can be reopened.
Feng Lingzai carefully read the list and said to Xingye: "Goryeo will start a war soon." ā
She had only been saying this for two days, and the saint who had just recovered from a long illness came to the court and sent a letter to ask for Goryeo. It was on this day that Ah Zhen, who was next to Princess Gaoyang, suddenly came to see her.
"The saint is now well, although he did not order the summoning of the lady, but day and night, he repeated it several times, and always asked the lady if her body could be raised. The meaning of my princess, if the lady does not want to return to Zhaoqing Palace, it is understandable, but thinking of the saint's ordinary Longen, it is time to go back to meet. ā
Ah Zhen dropped the words, turned around and left, according to Princess Gaoyang's instructions, to treat this Gu Niangzi, I am afraid that it will not be possible to force and drag her, I have to repay the kindness and talk about it, or it can have some effect.
Xingye listened to Ah Zhen's words, and she lost her soul, and every morning and dusk tentatively asked if Feng Ling would return to the inner garden, and Feng Ling would return to her at least twice a day, "No return".
Now that Goryeo had already started a war, the wind spirits habitually waited for the war report. In the past, she served beside the saint, and as soon as the battle report came, she could know it immediately, but now she has to rely on the steward's servants to go outside to investigate, she is in the nunnery, copying scriptures on one wall, and praying extremely contradictory on the other, not wanting him to kill more enemies, let alone being hurt by the enemy.
At noon one day, the old steward came running with a letter, and the wind was at home, just thinking that it was a letter that had been delayed, and when he arrived at the hand, he saw that it was a letter from the Buddha and slave that he had almost forgotten, a thick pile. It is said that there was an incident in the turtle and the war a while ago, and there was no business and travel on the official road, but it has only gotten better recently, so the letter has been delayed for a long time before it is delivered.
Feng Ling hurriedly picked off the wax seal and read it page by page.
As she expected, the merchants who sold Yuejin in the middle of Chang'an City in the spring were all trading with the new Shazhou Dasabao, and most of the business done by the Dasabao was rice, flour, iron, cloth, and even some horse trading with the Turks. But as long as there is a sale, with such a huge amount, it will definitely be able to cause a sensation in Xizhou and Shazhou, but there will be no movement after the grain is purchased.
The other is that all the caravans of Nada Sabao, and those associated with Chang'an City, have never been plundered in Western Xinjiang. Nowadays, the western Xinjiang is not as long as the time of the delay, and the merchants who come and go between Xizhou and Shazhou have been bandited nine times out of ten, and they have never encountered bandits, which is too coincidental.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like the situation of raising soldiers. Feng Ling took a pen and wrote some disorderly words on the paper: bandits, robbery, Chang'an, selling goods, buying grain, and raising soldiers.
The bandits and thieves in the western Xinjiang trade road are rampant, and the Chang'an market is full of good goods, and the two things that seem to have nothing to do with each other taught her to throw out the temptation of Yue Jin in series. Little by little, she speculated that Liu Zheng's private soldiers, pretending to be bandits, had plundered caravans in the western frontier, and that someone had to sell them for money and grain for the dirt they had obtained. Because it was too conspicuous, the looted goods could not be sold in Shazhou or Xizhou, and the place where the world's goods gathered was Chang'an, so they were transported to Chang'an for sale. After selling it in Chang'an, it was transported back to Shazhou to buy grain, grass and iron to raise private soldiers. Although it is troublesome, it can be made scattered and secret, and it does not teach people to be suspicious.
Feng Ling took the pen and added a "merchant" between "Chang'an" and "sales", added a "big Sabao" between "buying grain" and "raising soldiers", and wrote the word "willow" on top of "merchant" and "big Sabao".
She put down the pen and looked at the words on the paper in a daze, and couldn't help but marvel in her heart, the old scheming of the Liu father and son is indeed convincing.
The "merchants" and the "big sabao" are like two wooden figurines, holding the goods, money, and grain under their hands and tossing them upside down, and the private soldiers grab the goods, sell the money, and then get them back to buy grain and rice, and the grain and rice are raised by the private soldiers. And the two servants, "Merchant" and "Da Sabao", are also wooden figurines, and the two of them are led by Liu's father and son.
It's a wooden figurine show that deceives the upper and lower levels, accumulates wealth and accumulates soldiers.
Feng Ling picked up the pen again and drew two big circles on the "merchant" and "Da Sabao", these two places connect the previous and the next, and the breakthrough is here.
