Chapter 209: Your Majesty's Resignation

In the Ciyuan Palace, Xie Shi looked at the young man who stepped forward step by step, and sighed a little in his heart, his expression was as calm as ever, as if he had simply come to say hello.

"Liu Yu, a member of the Zhongshu House and a courtier of the Longtu Pavilion, visited the Emperor and the Emperor, and wished the saint all blessings and peace."

"Get up."

His movements are still so respectful that people can't make mistakes, but what kind of heart will be on the calm surface, Xie Shi can't guess. When she had called up, she did not know what to say to him, and as if nothing seemed superfluous, the temple fell silent at once.

"This time it is valued by the imperial court, so that the minister can serve as the chief envoy to complete the peace negotiation, and only by doing his best and living up to his expectations can he repay the grace of the saint in case of emergency."

"Then please."

The regular answer made Xie Shi feel extremely awkward, and he couldn't say it, and the young man finished thanking him, and stood there straight, as if waiting for her to speak.

"Your lady is fine."

After thinking about it for a long time, Xie suddenly remembered the little girl who was fainting, and he didn't know if she was better.

"Thank you for the saint's concern, Neiko is fine, but after standing for a long time, he is a little weak, and he will sleep as usual when he goes home."

"That's good."

After saying three words, Xie Shi didn't know what else to say, he knew that the result was like this, it was better to see her at that time, who knew that the little woman was so stubborn.

"If the saint has no more orders, Weichen will retire first."

After waiting for a while, seeing that Xie Shi didn't speak again, he planned to leave, he still had some things to deal with before leaving, and he didn't want to delay outside for too long.

"Liu Ziqing"

"Wechen is here."

"You're doing it yourself."

Xie Shi held back for a long time, and still only said these four words, she felt that it was too deliberate to say anything else, the matter had already been done, since there was no room for regret, why bother to pretend again?

"The saint cherishes, Weichen is gone."

Liu Yu gave a deep salute, they are all poor insiders, they think they have a plan today, and they don't know what will happen in the future. The moment he walked out of the palace with his head held high, the song that originally echoed in it, changed its soft style, and suddenly became impassioned, Liu Yu couldn't help but be stunned, and then showed a smile, and went out without stopping at all.

In the Yuan mission, the deputy Chai Zizhi took his attaché to visit the prison in Lin'an Mansion in accordance with the agreement with the Song people, and at the same time informed them of the news of the peace agreement. But Lian Xixian himself quietly came to the wine shop in the city, where he met the shopkeeper Wang, and Lu Shimeng, who took the initiative to come.

"After I return to Beijing, you will continue to send news on a regular basis as before. Don't be anxious, this Lin'an City, I'll come back sooner or later. ”

Seeing that the shopkeeper Wang was a little anxious, he had to comfort him in a suggestive tone, this person has been infiltrating Lin'an for many years, and he can be regarded as taking root, although he has not put on a very useful line, at least he is a reliable ear and eye.

As for the Lu family, Lian Xixian felt that he was more useful, and the Song people now snubbed him, so that he could not access the most core secrets, but in the end, he was also considered a local snake, and it was more advantageous to do things, but Lu Shimeng didn't seem to think so.

"Don't hide it, I have already handed over a letter of recommendation to Chen Xiang, and I just got a reply, asking me to prepare and join the mission the day after tomorrow to serve as Liu Ziqing's deputy."

"What?"

Lian Xixian was a little surprised, this move was not instructed by him, he was a little annoyed that the Lu family was doing it himself, this mission was just going through the motions, what could he do if he mixed in?

"Shangshu, a certain place is here, but an idle person, with this move, if he comes back in the future, he will definitely be able to get a dispatch, isn't it a hundred times better than now?"

Regarding his self-defense, Lian Xixian was noncommittal, this seems to be high-sounding and reasonable, but in fact, he is still afraid of death, he is thinking that he doesn't need to come back.

But the wood is already in the boat, and now let him withdraw the recital? Obviously impossible, since this is the case, Lian Xixian immediately changed his happy look, reached out and patted his arm.

"It's so good, with you, every move of the Song people can be controlled, and when you arrive in Dadu, the official will definitely recommend to the Great Khan, your Lu family is loyal and good, and Dayuan will never be treated badly."

After receiving the praise, Lu Shimeng's somewhat apprehensive mood also relaxed, and every day he spent here made him uneasy. As soon as he heard that no one had written to recommend himself, he felt that the opportunity had come, and no matter what, it was better to run away first than to spend the day here.

As for the family, with the practice of the Song people, most of them are exiled at most, as long as the army goes south in the future, and then find a way to find it back, now even Lian Shangshu is known here, how can he not be happy.

Enduring the disdain in his heart, Lian Xixian still had to cheer up and be with him, this was probably the last time he entered the city before leaving, and he didn't know if there was a chance to come. On a corner not far from here, a man in a bamboo hat pretended to rest with a burden, but his eyes occasionally turned in that direction, and then he lowered his head and muttered to himself.

"Lu?"

Liu Yu read this name in surprise, he didn't expect this stare to stare at a rabbit, this person actually took refuge in Yuan Ren early, no wonder he would be so active in recommending himself, when did the traitor become an infectious disease?

This person will go with him immediately, most of them have the idea of never returning, but he is just a small character, and Liu Yu is not interested in touching him. Besides, if he is caught, wouldn't he have to choose another person, forget it, run away, and save himself from being a disaster in the future.

"Ask someone to inquire about the king's treasurer, where he lives, where he comes from, and how many men he has."

And this Wang shopkeeper who has been exposed a long time ago, Liu Yu has no intention of letting it go, and when there is tangible evidence, will it be reported to Lin'an Mansion or the Criminal Department? Or the Imperial City Division, I don't know which department the spy is in charge of. Although the destructive power of these people is limited, it is also annoying to dangle in front of their eyes all day long, and it is good to have a disgusting Yuan Ren in one pot.

Before they could find out the details of this person, another group came with new news, and the target who had been staring at him left the post station, mixed in the team of attachés and went to the Lin'an Mansion prison, which seemed to be a prison visit, this time the spies saw it very seriously, which confirmed Liu Yu's original judgment.

"Don't alarm them, just keep an eye on it from afar and see if he'll return to the inn."

Since the captives will be sent to Jiangzhou, most of the targets will follow the mission, pick up people there and then return, in that case, they can only find a way in Jiangzhou, it is impossible for the Yuan people to send a large army to pick up people, there must be an opportunity, Liu Yu is not in a hurry.

"Husband, look at what the slave has done."

Jing Niang walked in with a plate, her face was happy, and she was no longer in the sorrow of yesterday. Liu Yu smiled and watched her approach, and understood in his heart that his wife's happiness was not pretended, but made up some kind of determination.

"It's really sweet, not much better than my lady's place."

"My husband knows how to make fun of slaves."

After tasting it, he said with satisfaction, Jing Niang said with shame and disgust, and snuggled in his arms. At the moment of beauty, Liu Yu put down the bowl and kissed it at once, and it was really sweet as he said, but he couldn't move further, because there was a knock on the door of the study.

"Brother Shengdao, if you come one day late, you won't be able to enter this door."

Liu Yu left his wife in the study and went to the front yard to see someone by himself, he estimated that this person should also come to the door, but this point was not very accurate, so he stabbed half-truthfully.

"Ziqing, I'm ashamed"

"I don't want to hear nonsense, you don't have to say it anymore, since I'm here, I'll talk to you about it."

Xie Tang's expression was a little sneering, this incident came too suddenly, and when they reacted, it was already a foregone conclusion. Because the matter was not led by the saints, they did not go to the palace to dredge, and he did not come to the door until Liu Yu took over the appointment.

"This property, if it is placed in the capital, not only will you not be able to sleep well, but the court will also keep an eye on it from time to time, and if you don't do it, it will become someone else's wedding dress, are you here for this?"

"Exactly, now that the news of the peace agreement has come out, the people's enthusiasm for buying has increased a little, and the library is piling up more and more, and I am here to ask you for an idea."

In fact, Liu Yu had already arranged this matter before, and they did it just because they were afraid that things would be repeated, and they would not know the life and death of the people going north, and Liu Mansion and Ye Mansion were one, and no one knew whether there would be any variables.

Ye Mengding, who doesn't know, is an old slippery head who doesn't eat hard and soft, unless he goes to his own position, no one can give up his position as Haishuai, and the sea transportation line he controls is a vital part of it, so Xie Tang has to come this time, even if it is hard.

"Did you do what I said last time?"

"Well, after the news was released, many merchants have already brought samples to Beijing. I waited for a while, and then waited for ten days and half a month, and began to engage in the bidding you said, the price is low and the quality is high, and the goods are paid on delivery, both hard objects and stock certificates can be used, those are all human essences, and when they see that this stock certificate is sold so hot, most of them will choose the latter ones, but in this way, the gold and silver in the treasury will have no way out. ”

"In this case, when the bidding begins, that is, when the stock warrants expire, no matter how much can be sold by then, the sale will be stopped."

Liu Yu calculated the time, this day is probably also the time when the Haisi warship returns, with the previous foreshadowing, it will inevitably usher in a sales Gao Feng. There are a number of things to grab, this truth is the same in ancient and modern times, doing business with the royal family, and it is a monopoly trade route, a little vision will not be missed, in that case, I am afraid that the sales in just over ten days will exceed the sum of the past.

"What about the blank certificate?"

"Don't worry, a certain preparation is not lost to the previous amount, and it will be handed over to you before leaving, there will be no problem with these sales, how much the court wants to share the profits, you go to fight for it. But you remember one thing, after the warehouse is sealed, arrange the transfer immediately, and do not delay. ”

Liu Yu is not alarmist when he says this, such an astronomical amount of wealth will inevitably reach the ears of the Tartars, once they learn that they may go straight to the Beijing division regardless of a qiē, and what kind of impact it will have on the battle situation at that time, he can't accurately judge, he can only remind them to take precautions.

"Shipped to Qiongzhou?"

"Well, Uncle Yue's place, a certain will send a letter, as planned, the facilities there are being strengthened and built, you can send people over now, and you will focus on that side in the future, this is not only a trade route, but also a retreat, understand?"

This sentence was not only said to him, but also to those behind him, as for whether they would obey or not, Liu Yu didn't care, as long as the property passed. However, hearing such a heartfelt reminder, Xie Tang's face turned red and he looked even more embarrassed.

"Ziqing, I originally thought of instigating a few familiar imperial historians to suppress your appointment, but I never thought that you would take it directly. If you really have a worry about your life, it is better to leave now, you go out of the city in disguise alone, and someone will escort you to the south, and you can rest assured that your family is on a certain body. ”

Hearing his construction, Liu Yu was stunned for a while, and he wanted to let go of himself, Xie Tang was flushed after speaking, and his breathing was a little short, obviously a hard decision, not a lie to him.

"Ascension, you have this heart and a certain feeling inside, if you want to leave, you will not accept the edict. But this time, the family will ask you to take care of it, don't worry, a certain will definitely come back, maybe it won't be too long. ”

As a saint's nephew, he really took on such a relationship, and he couldn't escape the heavy responsibility, the friendship between the two was not very deep, and it was not easy to have such a plan. So whether he came up with it on the spot, or he had this idea for a long time, Liu Yu accepted his feelings.

Sending away the excited Xie Tang, Liu Yu sighed deeply when he thought of his very assertive little wife, if that method couldn't dispel her thoughts, no one would be able to prevent her from acting, which was the real trouble.
