The cicada stuck out her tongue and said a little sarcastically: "Isn't this at home, I'm just telling you." ”

"Anyway, don't talk nonsense in the future." Ning Zhao Zhengse said: "When it comes to the royal family, everything is taboo, you are not small, what to say and what not to say, you have to have your own number." ”

Qing Cicada nodded hurriedly, very taught, "Knowing Miss, I will definitely keep my mouth shut in the future." ”

Ning Zhao smiled, reached out and pinched the green cicada's cheek, and said, "It's good to know." ”

Qing Cicada couldn't help but dodge, paused, was still very curious, got closer again, and asked, "But now it's just the two of us, Miss, just tell me, are you happy?" ”

Ning Zhao was speechless, feeling that everything he had said to her before had been in vain, so he shook his head helplessly and said, "There's nothing unhappy." ”

"As a woman, this matter is uncomfortable no matter who it is." Ning Zhao paused, and his voice suddenly changed, "But in this way, the blockage I added before has been relieved a lot." ”

Ning Zhao never felt that he was a good person, and people with evil thoughts could not be regarded as good people.

As for the matter of the fourth princess Murong Jiao, if it weren't for Ning Zhao knowing that Jin Yuan did it, he wouldn't have paid attention to it at all.

Murong Jiao helped Ning Jian suppress herself before, and then coveted Jin Yuan, and did not have the slightest pity for her Ning Zhao.

The cicada laughed stupidly and said, "It's good that Miss is happy." ”

"During this period of time, I saw that the young lady was depressed all day long, and the cicada felt uncomfortable." Qing Chan poured a cup of tea for Ning Zhao, handed it to Ning Zhao, and said, "When the adults come back from Zhigu Village, the young lady and the adults will be reconciled." ”

Is it as good as ever......

Oh, yes.

During this time, she had her persistence, torturing herself and Jin Yuan, and now that things had room to maneuver, she didn't have to force herself to stay away from Jin Yuan.

The pain of being separated from the person she loves is something that others can't feel, only she knows how difficult it is.

"There are still a few days left until half a month." Ning Zhao turned his head to look in the direction of Zhigu Village and muttered, "He said, let me wait for him to come back." ”

At dusk, the lights are on, and the streets are another prosperous scene.

"I didn't expect to meet Lord Jin here." The young man, dressed in a short game, with this ordinary attire, no one could guess that he was the head of the ferry trade across the border of South Vietnam and the upper reaches of the golden waterway.

"I didn't expect to come to Zhigu Village to meet Wei Dangjia."

In the elegant box, Jin Yuan and Wei Dangjia sat opposite each other, leaving only a wine maid by his side.

Wei Dangjia picked up the wine glass and smiled heartily, touched Jin Yuan, and said, "This is fate!" ”

"Before, thanks to Lord Jin's suggestion, the ferry trade has become a regular business, and there is today's trade waterway."

Jin Yuan drank the wine in the cup, shook his head and chuckled, and said: "Boss Wei is polite, the ferry trade can not only benefit the people, but also increase the income of the imperial court. ”

"You can't say that." Wei Dangjia disagreed, and said: "If it weren't for Lord Jin's good idea, how could the imperial court agree to our request, and would only send troops to suppress it and collect the livelihood we had on hand, where would there be a prosperous day today." ”

Wei Dangjia has already talked about this, Jin Yuan is not shirking, and said with a smile: "I can help Wei Dangjia and the people on the border, and I can complete the task assigned to me by the imperial court, the ending is happy, and everyone is happy." ”

Hearing this, Wei Dangjia smiled, picked up the freshly filled wine glass, and toasted Jin Yuan again.

The two chatted for a while, and Jin Yuan asked about the purpose of Wei Dang's family coming to Zhigu Village, Wei Dangjia Jin Yuan was a friend, and he didn't treat him as an outsider at all, and said directly: "This trip is also for business, and a batch of goods are sent to Zhigu Village through our ferry." ”

"However, Zhigu Village is not connected to waterways, I first arrived in Daxing and then transferred to Zhigu Village by land, and the goods are more expensive, so I came in person."

Jin Yuan nodded and said with a smile: "Zhigu Village is not connected to waterways, but now the imperial court is building official roads, which facilitates the circulation of goods." ”

"The waterway is Wei in charge again, and in the future, the land route will be opened, and Wei Dang's business will be able to easily do the whole Yan country." Jin Yuan said with a smile.

Wei Dangjia smiled even more, "It's not thanks to Lord Jin, I heard that the construction of the official road is also Lord Jin's proposal, Lord Jin's contribution is in Sheji, it's really admirable!" ”

"Huh...... It's too much! Jin Yuan smiled helplessly, "Wei Dangjia has tormented me, as an official of the imperial court, he should have worked for the well-being of the people and stability for the society." ”

"The construction of the official road has received the help of many people, and the concerted efforts of the whole country can make the country stable."

"There is money to contribute, and there is power to contribute." Wei Dangjia sent a few cases, and said loudly: "When the official road is built to the border, I will definitely help!" ”

It was very unexpected to be able to meet Wei Dangjia Jin Yuan here, and now it is even more unexpected to have his words, and immediately arched his hand towards Wei Dangjia and said: "Wei Dangjia is righteous, Jin has thanked Wei Dangjia for the emperor and the court." ”

"Compared to Lord Jin, what I did was nothing." Wei Dangjia waved his hand.

After a pause, as if he remembered something, he took out a stack of things from his arms and handed them to Jin Yuan, "This is half a year's tax." ”

"Originally, I wanted to go back and hand it over to the local officials, but when I met Lord Jin today, if I remember correctly, Lord Jin is in charge of the household department, and the money will have to be handed over to you in the end, so it is better to give it to you directly, and you don't have to be skinned by those unfed wolves."

Jin Yuan looked at the stack of silver tickets, and did not refuse, and accepted them directly.

The border is still some distance from Kyoto, and although an agreement was signed with them, it was walked down layer by layer, and the silver reached the hands of the imperial court, and I don't know how much was left.

The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the old emperor has a lot of opportunities, and he has no time to stare at this Zhang Luo.

Wei Dangjia was right, but there was another key reason why Jin Yuan accepted this money.

Not long after the border war, the imperial treasury was empty, and the construction of official roads was in the form of fundraising.

Besides, Jin Yuan is still thinking about the marriage contract with the fourth princess, although there is an arrangement, if he can make meritorious contributions, even if the old emperor wants to shoehorn people into himself, he can't erase his face as the Ninth Five!

"I accepted this tax, and when I go back, I will ask someone to approve the slip/child for you, and when the Wei family goes back, just hand over the strip/child to the local subordinate officials." Jin Yuan put away the silver ticket and said to Master Wei.

Wei Dangjia nodded in response.

After the two finished talking about business, they chatted again.

Jin Yuan has already handled the matter of Zhigu Village, and he will be able to retire after waiting for the people from the Ministry of Industry to come from Daxing.

The two chatted late, Jin Yuan drank a lot of wine, and it was close to the ugly time when he returned to the post house.

On this trip, he asked Liuying to stay in Kyoto to take care of Ning Zhao, and he took Wei Hua alone.

Wei Hua helped Jin Yuan get out of the carriage, sent the person back to the wing, and carefully prepared wine and tea for Jin Yuan.
