Chapter 169: Entrusting a Heavy Task

Feng Ling moved the corners of his lips, hid his gloom well, and re-unfolded a smile: "What does the saint want to tell Feng Ling to do?" ”

"Since you have been in business, you can be familiar with the way of economy, and your family has been operating silk fabrics in the Western Regions for many years, and you are familiar with the regulations of foreign customs, so you can imitate the salt and iron policy theory and rationalize a set of economic policies in the Western Regions, how about it?"

Li Shimin's expression didn't seem to be teasing her, and he didn't joke, since he said this, most of them were seriously moved. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info frowned and hesitated, not daring to respond or not.

"Why don't you dare to take it?" Li Shimin asked again.

"The wind spirit is terrified." She scratched her sideburns wryly, "Your Majesty has a lot of capable people in the three provinces and six departments, if Your Majesty has a trust, they will definitely live up to expectations, and they are sparse and shallow, but they rely on those unruly books taught by Daddy...... How dare you, how dare you seek the well-being of the country. ”

She was afraid that the saint would be displeased, so she hurriedly picked up the teaspoon flatteringly: "It is better for the wind spirit to cook tea and grind for the saint." ”

"Cooking tea? Can you outperform the maid who serves tea? Li Shimin smiled and pointed to the small clay stove behind her to cook tea, Feng Ling knew that he was like Furu, so he had to put down the teaspoon, Li Shimin laughed at her embarrassment, and said: "Grinding has someone who is more skilled than you." ”

Feng Ling originally wanted to say that she could train horses for the Son of Heaven, but Li Shimin did not give her this opportunity, and then said: "But in this palace, whether it is the inner or outer courts, there is no shortage of capable people who can help the world, but few people can understand economic strategies. Most of the scholars were born in Confucianism, and they disdained to learn these tricks for profit. What I want is to be as eclectic and free as you are. ”

The wind spirit was ashamed: "The saint thinks highly of the wind spirit. She really never thought of doing such a big thing, her previous ambition was just to run Gu Fang well, full of money, and make a lot of profits, so as to teach herself to live more freely and happily with the tribes who were born and died together, even though she was hot-hearted, and occasionally took care of some small things, but she never even thought about revitalizing the Gu family, so she was inexplicably put on the high platform of the world, and her heart was naturally stunned.

Li Shimin sighed leisurely: "Since Keming left the Tang Dynasty and left me first, no one has talked to me about the strategy of salt and iron like this, and for more than ten years, there has been no one. Now I smell it from the mouth of a little lady, if you weren't really in front of me, it would almost make people suspect that it was Keming's dream pretext. ”

Although he was facing the wind spirit, the wind spirit intuitively felt that he was not saying this to her, but as if he was talking to the old Cai Guogong who had been thinking about the saint again and again. Li Shimin suddenly came back to his senses and asked, "Where is your father?" What's your last name? Would you like to be an official? ”

Feng Ling was shocked, and he knelt down and sat upright, and replied: "My father is a person from Jiangdu County, Jiangnan Province, whose surname is Yunhe, my father was in business in his early years, but now he is old, and he is indifferent by nature, and he is not very willing to pay attention to the affairs of the clan. ”

"Gu Yunhe......" Li Shimin repeated the name twice, and nodded regretfully: "Yes, Xianyun Yehe, it sounds like a loose person, and he shouldn't be embarrassed after all." No matter how good a person is, he refuses to be a leader, your father is like this, and so is Master Xuanzang. ”

Mentioning Master Xuanzang, Feng Ling couldn't help but say: "Master Xuanzang is a person who serves the Buddha, how can he be out of the world?" ”

"You know him, too?" Li Shimin doubted.

"In the past, in the Thousand Buddha Caves outside Dunhuang City, Shazhou, the wind spirit was fortunate to have the guidance of the mage, but the wind spirit was dull and has not been able to understand it so far."

Li Shimin rubbed the tendrils on his lips and recalled: "Shazhou...... Indeed, he was indeed on the Dunhuang City and asked to enter the customs. In this way, Shazhou is an interesting place, and the intersection is there. ”

Feng Ling didn't know what to do, but when he said "convergence and penetration" meant the things in the world such as wealth, money, and goods, all kinds of foreign tribesmen, so he casually responded to a few words, thought about it, and she added: "Feng Ling's shop is no longer in Shazhou, but moved to Xizhou, if the saint can get out of the palace, he might as well go and take a walk." At the same time, the saint was dressed in a white dragon fish, and the wind spirit accompanied the saint to wander around the border city in the west, and look at those strange things from outside the territory, and eat all kinds of snacks, which was very interesting. ”

Li Shimin was amused by her and laughed, Ah Sheng couldn't help but poke his head into the hall, curled the corners of his lips, he had never heard such a laugh for many years, in the end, Yang Shufei was more clever, I don't know where to find such a little lady, I can't complain that among the harem women, no one can match her high power.

He beckoned a clever little inner eunuch, gave a few words in his ear, and sent him to Anren Hall to deliver a message, so that Concubine Yang Shufei could learn that Gu Niangzi was serving on the side, and the saint was really happy.

After laughing for a while, Li Shimin straightened up, and repeated his previous words: "Compile the detailed records of commercial affairs in the Western Regions and manage economic strategies, you think about it carefully, and then come back and forth when you think about it." ”

Feng Ling replied respectfully "yes", and made up his mind in his heart, he must not respond, the matter is serious, so as not to be unable to do it, harm the government and government, and leave a stench for 10,000 years.

……

The next day, there was an early dynasty, although Li Shimin had some spiritual head, in the end he was not at peace, and he rested early in the second half of the day, and Feng Ling was able to return to Zhaoqing Hall as soon as possible.

Seeing that she had come back early, Apricot Leaf and Bamboo Branch hurriedly ordered someone to prepare hot soup for her to bathe.

Feng Ling entered the clean room, no one was allowed to follow, and she took off her dress alone and stepped into the barrel, the warmth in the barrel made her heart irrepressibly miss the same warm chest of Yanyan, her mind was full of his appearance in front of the temple, and she lost a lot of figure, and the staring in the hall that taught her to break her heart and lungs......

Wind Spirit's hands on her lap clenched into fists, trembling slightly in the water, tears squeezing out of her closed eyes and dripping down her face into the water, smashing a small puddle on the steaming water. In a trance, she felt a rough and warm hand rubbing her cheeks, wiping her tears, with pity and hesitation in her hands.

She opened her eyes suddenly, the room was hot and noisy, there was no one but her, and the illusion of her deep suppressed thoughts was so realistic, and it was so disappointing when the illusion was shattered. The wind spirit immersed herself in water, tears mixed with the hot water, like gentle palms brushing her face.

She can only take this to get a little comfort, steal a moment of true love and indulgence, apricot leaves and bamboo branches, and those palace maids are all in this Zhaoqing Palace, once out of the bathing bucket, change into dresses again, and then open the door of the clean room, she should carefully hide all her thoughts, every step of the way has to make all kinds of calculations.
