Thang Long City, restaurant.

Gu Beihai looked disdainful and said, "Even if she is as beautiful, she is just a woman." As soon as I heard that I was going to start a war with the Great Song Dynasty, I was already scared to the point of losing my face, how could such a person hang the curtain and govern, the old emperor held him to this position, and he still couldn't change the life of a plaything under the bed! ”

"In this way, for the sake of great things, I can only go to that dwarf." The accompanying steward was idle.

"Alas! Although the dwarf is ruthless, he does not have the power to send troops. ”

"I don't see it that way, this is not equivalent to giving him a chance to recruit soldiers and horses in the Li Dynasty. With the financial support of us and his own power, it is not easy. ”

When Gu Beihai heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Prepare some generous gifts, let's go see the dwarf... Go and see the crown prince of the Li Dynasty. ”

The Gu family's power in Jiangnan is different from that of a feudal town like Zhefu, after hundreds of years of development, the power of these wealthy families has long spread to all corners.

A seemingly ordinary shop workshop, you don't know what industry is behind it, even if you want to remediate, it is difficult to uproot.

At most, it is just to raid the head of the family on their face, and soon another one will be brought out, and the loss is limited.

This is also why these families can become the secret promoters of the general trend of the world.

Their strong financial resources, if they really succeed in supporting Li Yanghuan and succeed in eradicating Yang Lin with troops, then they will undoubtedly set up two lords, and wealth will be unimaginable.

It seems that such a family, I don't know how many there are in Jiangnan, is the most terrifying. Now they are very united, bent on resisting Yang Lin's new policy.

In fact, no matter who is in power or who is the emperor, they don't matter, how can these people have any loyalty to Zhao Ji.

But Yang Lin can't, because his new policy and his layoffs have touched the fundamental interests of the family.

Once Yang Lin's new policy is successful, the wealth of the world will be transferred to the hands of the people, and the current pattern will be changed. You must know that although the Great Song Dynasty is rich, it is these gentry and officials who are rich, not only because the regional development is extremely unbalanced, but also because the gap between the rich and the poor is even more terrifying.

Zhao Ji's prosperous balance in Bianliang City, pay attention to Feng, Heng, Henan, and Da, you don't see it, out of Bianliang everywhere are displaced people who rise up, and people are starving to death every day in Hedong, Hebei.

Yang Lin's streamlining of officials touched the interests of the gentry, and if they lost their officialdom, they would lose the guarantee of continuing to accumulate wealth.

The straightening of the canal touched regional interests, and Hebei, Hedong, and Youyan had little power in the DPRK, which was why Zhang An, a Hebei man in the River Division, and other Hebei officials were willing to die for Yang Lin.

Thang Long City is already the national capital of Cochin, but the streets are still muddy. In other places, it was even more unsightly, Gu Beihai rushed to the East Palace with more than a dozen carriages.

Kaifeng Mansion is a small town, which is cleaner and more prosperous than here, but looking at the whole world, this is already a good national capital today.

Before my Qing Dynasty, the Han Dynasty undoubtedly stood at the top of the world, even the Ming Dynasty, which was hacked to a new height, was also the world's first.

It's a pity that the scarcity and brainlessness of costume dramas make future generations rarely understand the strength of their ancestors. In contrast, thanks to the overwhelming braid play, the affairs of the Qing Dynasty are like a few treasures, and many children still think that the long shirt and coat are the ancestral clothes, and the pig's tail braid is a national characteristic. The emperors in those bird plays, one by one, don't do their jobs all day long, either they are micro-service pickled girls or they are fighting in the palace at home, and then a certain teacher on the pulpit makes a comparison, which proves that the emperor of the Qing Dynasty and the emperor of the former Ming Dynasty are all bastards.

Many masters and scholars in later generations beat their chests and swore that in addition to my holy son of the Qing Dynasty, the emperors of other dynasties would only play crickets, be carpenters, love to mess around, and eat aphrodisiacs.

After entering the East Palace, looking at the minions all over the ground, Gu Beihai felt disdainful in his heart. This palace is also extremely luxurious, covered with gold and jade, but there is no elegance, if there is such a mansion in Bianliang, I am afraid that it will be ridiculed by the people as a beggar.

In many small countries in Nanyang, this is the case, their royal family occupies almost half of the wealth, and they only pile up this kind of superficial and gorgeous palace, which does not have the atmosphere of the Han family at all.

The prince of a dignified country is like a high-roller in the rivers and lakes, and he is worthy of turning the people into foreigners.

Li Yanghuan was in the main hall, and he made a majestic appearance, he was already in his forties, although he was a prince, he was a real middle-aged man.

It's a pity that this guy is too short, and the more he tries to pretend to be majestic, the more funny it is.

Gu Beihai and the others didn't dare to laugh at him, and after saluting respectfully, Li Yanghuan said, "You came to find the Lonely King, what's the matter?" ”

If you want to talk about big things, how can you be so straightforward, Gu Beihai shook his head secretly.

"Your Highness, I can't hide it, I have something important to discuss when we come here, can I talk about it in another place?"

Li Yanghuan sneered in his heart, you went to see that slut first, and now you know whose world the Li Dynasty is?

The old immortal emperor is going to die after all, and when the lonely king ascends the throne, he is the true dragon son of the Li Dynasty.

The crown prince has been sitting in this position for a long time, which is really a torture and quite painful. Poor Li Yanghuan is already about to be tortured and crazy.

"The Lone King still has political affairs to deal with, so come back in the evening."

Thang Long City, inside the Royal Palace.

The air is refreshing, and in the misty imperial garden, Queen Lan Ying is barefoot, stepping on the crystal dew on the grass, sitting on a rocking chair in the garden.

Empress Lan Ying was holding her daughter in her arms, and she didn't know what to think again.

The little princess is at a lively and active age, and she wants to break free from the arms of the queen mother.

There was a sound of footsteps, and as soon as the queen's arm loosened, the princess slid out of her embrace, stretched out her hand excitedly, and ran.

"Slow down, Roel."

Several palace maids hurriedly chased after her, for fear that she would fall, the queen looked at the person in front of her and asked, "How is it, is there any news?" ”

"As Niangniang expected, they really went to the East Palace, and they haven't come out yet." The person who came was the woman in green that night, who was the confidant of Empress Lan Ying. She was originally the emperor's bodyguard, Shi Man, and led a group of female guards, known as Ewha Guard.

Empress Lan Ying sighed, looked a little anxious, and said, "The crown prince has an unruly personality, arrogant and arrogant, and he doesn't know how powerful Song Ting is. Our Li Dynasty is not the strongest time now, if we rashly intervene in the affairs of the Great Song Dynasty, I am afraid that the Li Dynasty will be in danger. ”

Shi Man squatted down, gently kneaded Empress Lan Ying's calves, and said distressedly: "Don't worry about Niangniang, that Song people have always been weak, and Xu is very famous, but in fact, I don't look at a blow." ”
