After Zhao Zonghui's incident, the court calmed down a lot, and the Khitans no longer chased after the ministers of the Ministry of Rites to demand a doubling of the annual coin, and the Western Xia people no longer asked to follow the example of the Liao and Song dynasties to ask for the annual coin.

The latest news shows that after receiving Yang Huairen's letter, Liang Yikui, the minister of Western Xia, seemed to believe what the letter said that his son was assassinated by the Khitans, and the whole thing was a trick of the Khitans.

Liang Yikui didn't believe Yang Huairen at first, the Jingsai army in Yelitu lost more than 6,000 soldiers in vain, and Liang Yikui's first thought was revenge, avenging his son and the Xia army who died in battle.

But the clear-eyed people in the Western Xia court are not fools, Liang Yiwei did this just to further grasp the power of Western Xia in his own hands.

Later, the collusion between Zhao Zonghui and the Khitans spread to the Western Xia, and Liang Yiqi believed that what Yang Huairen said was true, and the Western Xia was deceived by the Khitans like dogs.

Although there was an alliance between the Western Xia and the Great Liao, this agreement was also more formal than practical, and when they had common interests, they were naturally allies, and on the contrary, it was difficult for anyone to say what the relationship between the two sides was.

Liang Yikui wanted to explain the law to Da Liao, and the Khitan people ate the scales on Wang Ba, and pretended to be confused and did not admit it, so the two sides began to go back and forth.

They were busy arguing, and Da Song's side was quiet. The court is full of trivial matters, and the Empress Dowager Gao is also relieved to hand it over to the two prime ministers to deal with.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, the Empress Dowager Gao returned to Shou'an Palace, as usual, kneeling in front of the Buddha shrine and chanting and worshiping the Buddha for half an hour.

It's just the most peaceful moment of her soul, this time, it is also the most clear moment of her head, in this half an hour, she fantasizes that she has a yellow robe, and the hundred officials bow down to her, and the mountain shouts long live.

She enjoyed the moment, and looked forward to the scene in her fantasy, which could be realized in the near future.

At the end of the ceremony, after the elimination, she coughed lightly, and two close-fitting palace maids slowly stepped forward, supported her arms to help her up, and then returned to the soft collapse by the window, leaning on the soft cushion for a while.

When she opened her eyes again, two more palace maids brought a cup of warm weak tea and asked her to rinse her mouth.

On the small square table in front of him, there should have been only one aromatherapy burner, but a letter of recital appeared on the table at an inopportune time.

Empress Dowager Gao's face was slightly gloomy, but she pretended to complain as if nothing happened, "Didn't you say that any excerpts were sent to the Privy Council to be handed over to the two ministers for approval?" Why did you send it to Shou'an Palace? ”

Gonggong Ye stepped forward at this time and replied softly, "This letter is a recital of the Duke of Tongyuan, which shows that it can only be seen by the Empress Dowager alone." ”

"Oh?"

Empress Dowager Gao hesitated for a moment, her eyes stayed on the letter for a while, and then she shook her head lightly and sighed, "This Tongyuan County Duke just doesn't want the palace to be quiet for a while. ”

Saying that, she sat up, and Gonggong Ye sent several palace maids who were waiting in front of the soft collapse, and personally put a cushion behind the Empress Dowager Gao.

Empress Dowager Gao picked up the fold on the table and began to look through it, looking at it, her face became more and more ugly, and when she saw the end, she threw the fold on Xiao Zhuo.

Seeing that Empress Dowager Gao was so angry that she couldn't speak, Gonggong Ye couldn't guess what Yang Huairen said in this fold that was only for Empress Dowager Gao, but it was not good to pick it up without authorization, so he glanced at the fold on the ground and said to himself, "This ......"

Empress Dowager Gao gave a look, and Gonggong Ye hurriedly bowed his body and turned around to pick up Yang Huairen's recital, and when he opened it, he also showed an ugly expression on his face.

"This Yang Zhiyi is becoming more and more insatiable!"

Empress Dowager Gao saw that Gonggong Ye had finished reading the recital, and pointed in the direction of the Yang family's Zhuangzi and scolded, "He has done such a deviant thing, but the palace has always protected him and let him be grounded in his own Zhuangzi, just to let him keep to himself recently and not repeat right and wrong."

But what about him? Before, he brought his son into the palace to help him ask for a mansion, and asked for the old mansion of the king of Nanyang County, who doesn't know that the mansion is one of the largest mansions in Tokyo?

Thinking about his exploits in Huanzhou, and don't worry about him first, it's just a house, and being idle is idle, just give it to him.

But he didn't want to think about it, he was given the title of Duke of the county at a young age, and the official gave him the second grade of the festival, what a great grace this is, not only is he not grateful to Dade, but he is not satisfied, no, today he is going to play the land again! ”

After he finished reading the fold and figured out which piece of land Yang Huairen wanted, Gonggong Ye seemed to have a taste for it, and he also understood why Yang Huairen only showed this fold to the Empress Dowager Gao.

The land that Yang Huairen asked for was not the land on the royal books, but a secret piece of land owned by the Empress Dowager Gao, which was not elsewhere, it was the secret property of the Chrysanthemum Inner Guard, the huge wasteland where the cave of the Golden Chrysanthemum Hall was located.

In terms of place alone, this land is really not worth much.

Although this land is only separated from Yangjia Zhuangzi by a mountain, but on the east side of the mountain, Yangjia Zhuangzi is still facing the vortex river, there is a large area of river beach, it is easy to divert water, and it is also convenient to use the silt in the river to cultivate the land.

To the west of the mountain, there is a large area of wasteland, and there is also a river running through a relatively gentle valley slope, but the soil layer of this land is relatively thin, and the yield of growing food is low, so it has always been overgrown with weeds.

Therefore, although the area of wasteland in the west is several times that of Yang's Zhuangzi, if it is to be sold, its value is not as good as one-tenth of Yang's Zhuangzi.

A few decades ago, because this place did not grow crops and was located in a relatively remote place on the outskirts of Beijing, it was selected by the ordnance superintendent to use some of it as a gunpowder workshop.

Later, due to various reasons, the Ordnance Supervisor abolished this gunpowder workshop, and this land became even more idle and useless.

Later, Empress Dowager Gao felt that it was good to set up a hall in this kind of place, and there was a cave where a lot of soldiers, horses and ordnance could be hidden, so she secretly assigned this land to her name from the imperial court.

Empress Dowager Gao was angry, not all because she felt that Yang Huairen was really insatiable as she said, this wasteland was not worth a lot of money at all, she was angry that Yang Huairen, this kid, was a play wherever he thought.

He said in his recital that he was idle at home, so it was better to take the wasteland behind Zhuangzi, circle it and build a few houses, and he could open a kitchen academy.

Can Empress Dowager Gao not be angry? Letting you be at home is not to let you think about these boring things, but to let you help her plan that big thing.

I just thought that I would entrust Yang Huairen with a heavy responsibility after the matter was completed, but this kid didn't have a long time to figure out how to be a good cook, and he had to teach more cooks and so on.
