Chapter 542: Preparing for the Storm Before You Get Up

"Hey! I mean it! Fei'er and I have been looking forward to the two of you going to Shanggu as guests! In the past, Shanggu was poor and remote, and I am sorry to invite you, but now it is different, although it is not as rich as Guanzhong, but it also has a frontier flavor. The scenery there, you may not imagine. Geng Xiaofan grabbed the refreshments, gobbled them up, and sent an "invitation" to Yang'a.

"Sister, Xiao Fan's words are true. Heping has suffered with us in the Upper Valley for so many years, and often misses you. It's just that the road is far away, and there has been no suitable opportunity to come back. It's best for you to go and see her, and you have the right to go out for a walk. Liu Fei'er also warmly invited.

Yang A was moved, although she had also been to many places, but she had never set foot in northern Xinjiang, listening to Geng Xiaofan said, the prairie could not be seen at a glance, like the sea. But she hadn't even seen what the sea was like.

Hesitating, she looked at Wang Yonsei.

Wang Yanshi didn't make a sound, and his expression was a little hesitant.

"Yang, go out for a walk while you're young! When I'm old, I can't go out if I want to. Geng Xiaofan struck while the iron was hot.

"Let me think about it! However, is Kamiya really as good as you say? Yang Ah still didn't agree right away.

"Okay, you only found out when you went to see it yourself!" Liu Fei'er simply got up and took Yang Alla to her side.

"My husband was talking to Yonsei just now, and I didn't understand it. But I think my husband's words make sense. The taxes in the Upper Valley are not lower than in other places, but the people in the Upper Valley are well fed and clothed, and their lives are better than those in many states and counties. There must be some truth to this. Liu Fei'er said that it was introduced to Yang'a, but her eyes looked at Wang Yanshi.

"Look! Brother Yonsei, your insight is not as good as that of a woman's family. You haven't been a local official, so you probably don't understand. If the tax is too high, the people will suffer. If taxes are too low, people may not have a better life. This requires a balance, and if you can grasp this degree, everything will fall into place. ”

Geng Xiaofan really wanted to tell Wang Yanshi about the "leverage function" of taxation in finance, but he was afraid that he would not understand.

"Looks like I'm lonely." Wang Yanshi didn't seem to care too much about the issue of taxation, and casually dealt with Geng Xiaofan.

The topic came to an abrupt end, and the scene was slightly awkward.

"Yonsei, what Xiao Fan said makes sense, why don't we leave for a while and go to Shanggu to live for a while." Yang Ah saw the cold scene and hurriedly changed the topic.

"It's good, but I'm worried about your body, you're still taking medicine, it's not very convenient. Why don't you wait until you're better? Wang Yanshi looked at Yang Ah with tenderness in his eyes.

"Yang, where are you uncomfortable?" As soon as Geng Xiaofan heard that Yang A was taking medicine, he began to care. When I saw Yang Ah in the morning, I just joked with her, but I really didn't pay attention. At this time, I looked carefully and found that Yang A's complexion was not very good.

"Nothing, no need to worry!" Yang Ah smiled bitterly.

Geng Xiaofan wanted to ask again, but Liu Fei'er gently pinched him on the side, "Husband, the Liu family is alone in the back hall, I am a little worried, why don't you accompany me to have a look." ”

"Oh, well!" Geng Xiaofan didn't understand whether he said the wrong thing or what's wrong, he always felt that the originally relaxed chat atmosphere had changed all of a sudden, and he wanted to "pause" first.

"Yonsei, Xiaofan is not an outsider, you better say it directly, and it saves him from thinking nonsense."

Geng Xiaofan and Liu Fei'er had already gotten up, but Yang A suddenly said something.

"What's wrong?" Geng Xiaofan was full of doubts and sat down again.

"It's nothing, Yonsei has been unhappy in the ministry recently, and he has offended people who shouldn't be offended, and he's a little worried." Yang Ah no longer hid it.

"Someone who shouldn't be offended?" Geng Xiaofan frowned.

"That's what we just said, recently, because of the military spending, I had some unpleasantness with Zhen Han." Wang Yanshi's expression was a little gloomy.

"It's Zhen Han again!" Geng Xiaofan took the case, "He doesn't know your identity?" Does he dare to play tricks in front of Yang A! ”

Yang Ah smiled bitterly, "It's not what it used to be!" A Zhen Han is not enough, but you should know who is behind him. What he's done these days, you know better than I do. ”

Geng Xiaofan understands that the "he" Yang A said must be Wang Mang. Wang Mang destroyed the Wei family strongly, and even Princess Jingwu and his cousins and nephews did not let go, and these series of killings have shocked the emperor's relatives.

In the final analysis, the backer behind Yang A is the Queen Mother of the Longevity Palace, but the Queen Mother is getting older and older, and she is no longer able to control Wang Mang, and Yang A feels helpless. Therefore, at this time, she will be uneasy if there is a slight disturbance. Perhaps that's where her illness comes from.

Geng Xiaofan walked back and forth in the house for a few steps, and stopped in front of Wang Yanshi, "Yonsei, what are your plans?" ”

Wang Yanshi shook his head.

"The court is about to change the sky. Resign and go into hiding! There is also Ziwen's nephew, who found him a foreign official and left the court. Or I'll take him to the Upper Valley. Geng Xiaofan began to come up with ideas. Obviously, Sister Jing Yan wants to eliminate the "anti-reckless" forces of the court. If you don't stand in line with Wang Mang now, I'm afraid it will be a dead end. Stay out for the time being.

"Is it that serious?" Wang Yanshi was taken aback.

"If you don't want to be in the same stream, you have to be obscure. Take advantage of the storm and plan early. ”

"This ......," Wang Yanshi hesitated visibly.

"Anyway, plan ahead. You can also operate secretly first, if you don't want to quit immediately, report your illness first, and follow me to the valley to recuperate. Geng Xiaofan suggested again.

"Yonsei, what Xiaofan said makes sense. Go out and hide first, don't lose your strategy! Yang Ah made a statement.

"Go to the valley for two or three thousand miles, can you stand it?" Wang Yanshi was still hesitating.

Geng Xiaofan really wanted to know what was wrong with Yang A's body, but remembering Fei'er's expression just now, he stopped talking.

"I'm fine, it's just a matter of walking slower on the road." Yang Ah said, glancing at Geng Xiaofan intentionally or unintentionally.

Several people finally agreed and began to prepare separately.

Geng Xiaofan couldn't help but be curious, and found an opportunity to pull Fei'er to ask about Yang A's condition.

"You too! Why do you ask around in public? Yang Ah is a woman's disease, how embarrassed is she to say it! Fei'er glanced at Geng Xiaofan. Although he knows that he has a "close" relationship with Yang A, women still have to have some privacy.

"A woman's illness? What is a woman's disease? Is it serious? Geng Xiaofan asked, most people at this time are shy about illness and avoid medical treatment, but the more this is the case, the easier it is to have problems.

"Sickness here! Will you cure it? Liu Fei'er grinned and poked two fingers in Geng Xiaofan's chest.

"Have a lump that hurts every now and then, especially on those days of the month?" Geng Xiaofan guessed that since it was a problem in that part, the possibility of breast hyperplasia was very high.

"Huh! Do you really know about this disease? Liu Fei'er was really surprised. Yesterday, she rushed to Wangxian Village ahead of schedule, and when she saw Yang A, who she hadn't met for a long time, the two of them were really excited. But she also saw that Yang A's complexion was not good, and she asked again and again before she asked about her condition.
