Subi country, Yushu City. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In Yushu City at the beginning of April, it was still snowing heavily. At the foot of the high snow-capped mountains, the cold wind howls and the rain sleets with snow.

Queen's Palace.

In the palace, Queen Qingluan and several ministers gathered to discuss matters.

There was a stove in the hall, and it was very warm.

But everyone was arguing fiercely, and everyone was arguing about whether they should send troops.

Many people opposed the sending of troops, including Qingluan's mother, the original queen of the Dongnu Kingdom. As early as a few years ago, Qingluan was supported by Li Chao and the Tang Dynasty, and Subi split from the Tibetans, and with the support of the Tang Dynasty, he united the Qinghai-Tibet tribes and repeatedly defeated the Tibetans.

Although Tibet is still there, it has been ruined, retreating to Tibet, and there is no longer the fierceness of the past. On the contrary, it was Subi who united various ministries to establish the Subi Women's Kingdom, and dozens of large and small national tribes in the past are now gathered under the Subi Women's Kingdom.

Even the former queen of the Eastern Female Kingdom has now become the minister of the Subian female kingdom.

"Datang is too powerful, if we raise an army to attack Datang, we will be wiped out immediately."

"Datang can't be provoked!"

It was only with the support of the Tang Dynasty that the Subi Women's Kingdom was restored, and it was also with the support of the Tang Dynasty that it established a foothold between Tubo and Tuyuhun, and united the ministries to become the most powerful of the three countries in the Qinghai-Tibet region today.

But Subi is still a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, not even a vassal state, the Tang Dynasty can garrison troops in Subi, can build trade roads and build post stations, and even Subi's foreign diplomacy and military, the Tang Dynasty can be the master of Subi. Not to mention, when Datang uses troops abroad, they are also obliged to send troops to assist.

And now, Queen Qingluan actually proposed to send troops to the Tang Dynasty?

"For a man, is it worth it?" Qingluan's mother, Tang Peng, asked.

"She is my man and the father of my daughter." Qingluan replied very directly, "And don't forget, what does it take for us to be able to sit here today and become the strongest of the three families on this plateau?" It's Li Chao! ”

"But we can't afford to mess with Datang!" Tang Peng still insisted.

Qingluan said, "We are not invading Datang, nor are we rebelling against Datang. On the contrary, now that the Tang Dynasty is in civil strife, the emperor and the crown prince are at war, Li Chao supports the prince, and many nobles also support the prince. To the north of us, it was Cheng Jin, the king of Lujun, who was already on the side of the prince, and he invited us to send troops together. And to the southeast of us, over there is Nanzhao. Now Cheng Yanjin's son Cheng Chumo has a great influence over there, he is also a student of Li Chao, and he also persuaded Nanzhao to raise troops to support Prince Tang! ”

"That's a fairy fight, why should we intervene?" Tang Peng still said.

"Because the winner will be Prince Tang! We have to be on the side of the winners! Qingluan said.

・・・・・・

Yanbei.

The Duke of Los Angeles.

The old iron spear is armored again.

Holding the iron spear in his hand, he also sighed endlessly. He likes the Tang Dynasty very much and admires the emperor Li Shimin.

But in the end, he chose to raise troops and join his son Li Chao.

"Fathers can kill their relatives in righteousness." Fourteen-year-old Li Chao said on the side.

"We are now the Zhang family, the emperor has stripped us of our surnames, and we are no longer the Li family. Shiro, you have to remember that when you go into battle, father and son, fight tiger brothers, Wenyuan will always be my son and your brother. ”

Zhang Yue disagreed, "He is just your adopted son, and he has no blood relationship with us." ”

The old iron spear waved his hand and slapped his son in the face.

Five bloody fingerprints emerge.

Zhang Yue was stunned, his father has always loved him, and he was never willing to beat himself.

This is the first time.

"I don't want to hear that a second time. Wenyuan will always be your eldest brother. If you dare to say that again, then Lao Tzu will break your legs, and there will be no son like you. ”

"Dad, I'm your own son."

The old iron spear glared at his son fiercely, "The Zhang family doesn't have a cowardice like you." ”

"Pass my lord's order, gather all the knights of the territory, and let them gather all the militia and bring them to the castle." The old iron gun said to the family.

"Take out the money and food from the treasury, recruit sergeants, and build ordnance."

"Report!" A housekeeper came in.

"Report to Grandpa, King Qi sent someone to come."

It was Qin Dang who came.

Not only did he come, but he also brought a thousand cavalry. This is half of the elite of Qin Qiong's territory, the king of Qi County.

"What is this?"

"The king of the county is worried that there will be an official army to attack, so he specially ordered a certain to bring the cavalry of the territory to help."

"Uncle Baohe?" The old iron gun exclaimed.

Qin Qiong's territory is also in Yanbei, but it is quite far away from the territory of the old iron spear. Qin Qiong's territory is outside Zhangjiakou, while the old iron spear territory is outside the newly built Shanhaiguan in Liaoxi. There is still a Xi territory in the middle, but fortunately, this time I came over, but no one stopped me.

Qin Qiong sent troops to help, which was already an indication of attitude.

"I didn't expect to implicate Uncle Bao as well."

"This is the prince's own choice."

The old iron spear has a heavy heart, and the relationship between the emperor and Shubao is very good, but now he has turned his back on the emperor. This choice must be very difficult.

"General Su in the north of Wolf Mountain has also raised troops, as well as Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess of Pingyang." Qin Dare said a new piece of news.

The old iron spear shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"I never imagined that there would be such chaos today."

"I've thanked everyone for Wen Yuan."

Qin Dare smiled, "We all just support the crown prince." ”

The old iron gun also laughed.

Qin Dang said again, "Speaking of which, Cheng Luo Niudan, all of you are also bloody, but Li Ji really makes me look down on you." This has been the case every time over the years. ”

The old iron gun also knew that Li Ji was the coach of the Southern Expedition this time, and naturally he didn't have a good impression of him, "Back then, on Wagang Mountain, you should also know that Li Mi set up a Hongmen banquet, suddenly made a difficulty, and killed Zhai Rang at the banquet, didn't Li Ji beg Li Mi for mercy?" ”

"Forget it, don't talk about him, everyone has their own ambitions."

・・・・・・・

Yangzhou Port, Dengzhou Port, Hangzhou Port.

All the big ports have received the latest decree from the imperial court, prohibiting sea ships from going south.

As soon as this decree was announced, the maritime merchants in the various ports were simply complaining. If the ship cannot go to the South Seas, then the merchants who go to the South Seas or even to Taixi will not be able to do business.

For every day of delay, the losses are enormous.

Similarly, in the ports, those merchants who do foreign trade, transportation, and imports can't sit still.

If the ship doesn't go to sea, they're going to die too.

Only the route to Silla to Dongying remains, how many markets can there be.

"If this continues, we'll be done." A shipwreck said excitedly.

"I still bought my boat with a loan, and I haven't paid off the loan yet."

"Li Ji is a loan, it's still a fart, Li Ji's money is gone."

Someone said, "Li Ji is still there, but now the owner is not the Li family." Now that the court is in control, the loan you owe will have to be repaid sooner or later, can it be less? ”

"I heard that Guangzhou, Jiaozhou, and Qinzhou were not affected at all." There is a captain's way.

"I said, why don't we run. To stay here is to die, let's sail to the south, continue to run our boat, and continue to make money. ”

"But the city is strict."

"Let's move together and rush out of the port."

"But there are some officers on board." The captain was talking about the officers who commanded the guards on the merchant ship, and these were all active soldiers, although there were not many of them, but they were people sent by the imperial court on the ship.

"Find a way, take them along, I believe that you must have fed them in normal times, and they will definitely be willing to go to the south at this time."

・・・・・・

In Hangzhou, because many sea ships have been unable to go south, a large number of foreign trade orders have also been temporarily canceled, and many workshops specializing in foreign trade have suddenly stopped production and closed for holidays.

Those silk mills, textile mills, etc., are on holiday one after another. Without orders, if you do more, you will lose a lot, and the businessmen can only take a temporary holiday.

There is nothing to do and holidays, naturally there is no salary, the workers have nothing to do, and people are panicked.

The run on the tide spread all the way from Hanjing.

Hangzhou, a prosperous commercial port and a handicraft city, is also getting drier.

・・・・・・・

One night.

In the port of Hangzhou, suddenly a large number of merchant ships left the port without authorization and sailed south in the vast night.

After receiving the report, the city shipping department was startled and hurriedly sent a private ship to pursue it, but the merchant ship actually released rockets. Because there were too many merchant ships, the smuggling ship suffered a loss and two were burned.

The smuggling team did not dare to chase after it anymore, so they had to retreat.

The city secretary immediately reported to the imperial court on the one hand, and asked for help from the sailor on the other.

But when the sailors received the report and sent the ships over, the merchant ships had already been gone all night, and even several more boats had run in the second half of the night. The sailor only symbolically went out to sea for a round and then withdrew.

・・・・・・・

Hankyung.

Martial law is still being imposed, but fortunately, the imperial court urgently took out purchase restrictions, tickets, and silk, cloth, and grain to exchange paper money in the hands of the people, and finally stabilized the situation.

However, the head of the household department fainted and was sick at home and did not go to work.

What the imperial court took out was silk cloth and grain money, which were real money and silver, and what was exchanged back was the paper money in the hands of the people, most of which were still paper money issued by Li Ji.

And what hurts Dai Guan's heart the most is Li Ji's banknotes, which are really paper, and most of the gold, silver and copper coins they attract people have mysteriously disappeared.

This means that the imperial court has been exchanging real money for waste paper.

And the fatal blow that made Dai Xuan faint directly was that after they collected a lot of treasure money, they found a problem, there were too many treasure money.

Dai Xuan suspected that someone was taking the opportunity to use counterfeit banknotes, but no matter how he checked, he didn't find any of the exchanged treasure banknotes that were fake.

There is only one result.

Someone is printing money, using a real treasure money template. It is indeed a genuine banknote that is printed, but there is no reserve for this kind of banknote.

This kind of real money is impossible to prevent, and it is completely impossible to prevent it.

If the imperial court continues to exchange and recycle treasure money, the result may be that their silk, cloth, grain, and money will be taken away in a steady stream.

Dai Xuan had no way to deal with it, and when he woke up, he simply asked for leave and didn't go to work, he couldn't cope anyway.

He was succeeded by Tobe Shiro, who also discovered the problem, and had no way to deal with it, so he finally gave an order to stop exchanging treasure money.

But in this way, Hanjing was once again in turmoil, and the people were full of anger!

It may be the fifth watch today, and the Internet is cut off at home, so I am helpless. Thank you for spending ten yuan to receive the title of Muzi fan, thank you very much!
