Ai Qian, Feng Ke, the two came to Princess Zhaohua's mansion one after the other, and their work in Shangjing has basically come to an end, of course, they have to make a final summary report to the top person in charge of Daming in Shangjing. The guards at the door had obviously already been greeted, so as soon as the two came, they were immediately led to the backyard.

Entering the backyard, the two were very surprised, they thought that the back garden of Princess Zhaohua's mansion must be full of flowers, full of precious flowers and trees in the world.

Tall poplar trees covered the vast garden, leaving only a winding path in the middle of the forest. The two glanced at each other, and they both saw a puzzled look in each other's eyes, and they really couldn't understand why there was only such an ordinary poplar tree in the back garden of the dignified princess's mansion.

Aunt Ying and Father-in-law Le stood outside the forest and did not accompany Min Ruoxi. This is even more unusual, you must know that Aunt Ying is basically the shadow of the queen's mother, and when she is away, she is inseparable.

The two walked over, clasped their hands into fists, and saluted each other: "Auntie, Le Gong!" ”

Aunt Ying nodded, but at the same time put her hand to her lips and made a gesture of silence.

While the two of them straightened up, they also understood the reason why Aunt Ying made this gesture, in the dense forest, there was no human figure in sight, but a meandering and melodious singing voice could be heard coming from inside.

Since Grandpa Le and Aunt Ying are waiting outside, there is naturally no need to guess who is singing. This shocked the two, but they were also happy in their hearts, but not everyone had the ear to hear the queen's singing.

I will silently pray that the creatures of heaven will be attentive to you

Don't let you change your appearance

No matter in the far-flung countryside, noisy city

I can spot you at a glance

Let me be 3,000 years of growth

Wandering in the world

Even if I am a poplar from Kashgar

I'll look for you for centuries, too

Find you in the cycle of life

I am not afraid of rain, wind and sun, and I will be hurt by the desert wind and sand

Let the heart be exposed to the sun and confess to you

I'd rather my body be weathered by the years

Let you feel my true love, too

The queen's voice was very good, but the tune of the song she sang sounded extremely strange to the two of them, at least they had never heard this kind of music before. Listening to the meaning of this lyrics, it should be a more mournful love song, but now the queen is singing full of happiness, and there is a feeling of incompatibility.

This feeling was a little weird, and the two couldn't help but look up at Aunt Ying, their eyes full of inquiry.

Ying Gu smiled and whispered to the two: "Populus euphratica of Kashgar." ”

Hearing this strange name, the two are even more confused, this is another song title that has never been heard before.

"This is the song that Your Majesty sang to the princess when he was in the hidden dragon." Ying Gu explained with a smile. "The first time I heard this song, it was the first time Her Royal Highness the princess was married in Zhao Prison when His Majesty and Niangniang got married, but at that time, listening to this song, I shed tears, but now?" She looked at Ai Qian and Feng Ke, "I think you can also hear the happiness that is about to overflow in Niangniang's singing." ”

"That's true, so it feels weird." Ai Qian nodded. "No wonder this yard is just full of poplars, but this Kashgar?"

"I don't know about that." Ying Gu shook her head, "It sounds like a place name, but no one knows where it is." ”

"A tune that was originally sad and grieved, and the mother can sing with a full sense of happiness, which is naturally a change of mood." Feng Ke said, thinking in his heart that over the years, His Majesty has refused to accept even a concubine except for Niangniang alone, and thousands of pet families have gathered in one, and Niangniang is of course extremely happy. Usually, small families, as long as they have money, they still think about three wives and four concubines!

"The situation is born from the heart." Ying Gu looked at the two of them appreciatively: "The two of you deal with money every day, but you can't imagine that it is not good, and you can actually hear this." ”

The faces of the two were a little strange, is this a compliment, or is it contempt? For a while, it was difficult to talk, so I could only smile awkwardly.

"Auntie, are Ai Qian and Feng Ke here?" In the woods, the singing stopped abruptly, and a gentle voice came out of the woods, and the figure of the queen mother could not be seen, but the voice seemed to sound in the ears. Feng Ke Yilin, unlike Ai Qian, is an ordinary person, as one of the big proprietors of Changlong, he is also a great martial arts expert, until this time, he suddenly sounded, Niangniang is a genius cultivator above the martial arts, although he is only in his twenties now, but he is already a master at the peak of the ninth level, it is said that he has touched the threshold of the grandmaster, it seems that except for His Majesty, there is no third one in this world.

"Niangniang, it's Lord Ai and Boss Feng who have arrived." On the side, Le Gong was fair, and his voice was also not loud, but Feng Ke knew that the eunuch in front of him, who looked feminine, was a ninth-level master, and Aunt Ying was a grandmaster-level master, and the three people here, any of them, could crush themselves to death like an ant.

"Then come in!" The Queen's voice came again.

As Aunt Ying and Father-in-law Le walked into the dense forest, as the two expected, although they couldn't see how big the courtyard was outside, they knew that it was not small by guessing, and when they walked in, they realized that it was much bigger than they imagined. This reminded Ai Qian of the palace of the Ming Dynasty, he had followed Wang Yueyao into it once, but it was much more shabby than here. This is still the princess's mansion, but I am afraid that the palace where the king of Chu lives will be countless times more luxurious.

After walking for a while, there was a sudden light in front of me, and a beautiful woman in yellow appeared in the field of vision of the two.

Under the four poplar trees with the thickness of the bowl mouth, a small stone table and four small stone benches were arranged, and the queen mother was actually dressed in civilian clothes, with long hair and a shawl, without powder, standing very casually under the poplar tree, and actually weaving a poplar branch crown in her hand.

Seeing the four of them appear, he casually threw the half-braided canopy on the table and sat down.

"Ai Qian (Feng Ke) has seen Niangniang!" Before Ai, Feng Ke immediately took a step forward and knelt down.

"Excuse me, get up." Min Ruoxi pointed to the two stone benches on his left and right: "These days, you two have worked hard, sit down and talk!" ”

The two of them did not shirk, knowing that the queen mother and His Majesty were the same, they were both that kind of comfortable temperament, they didn't like nonsense, and when they were left and right, they sat on the left and right sides of Min Ruoxi, and Aunt Ying sat opposite Min Ruoxi.

And Le Gonggong, like Min Ruoxi, owes slightly, just like a ghost, and goes deeper, Ai Qian glanced at it, in the depths of the poplar tree, there is a cornice showing half of the corner, obviously there is a house there.

"Are you done?" Min Ruoxi asked.

Feng Ke looked at Ai Qian.

Ai Qian nodded: "Qi Yu Niangniang, it's basically done, this morning, we have already got the official palindrome of Emperor Chu, and our Majesty has resigned." The members of the mission had already saluted and were ready to return home. ”

"All of them were as we had predicted?" A trace of pain flashed in Min Ruoxi's eyes, but in the blink of an eye, he regained clarity.

"Yes, according to the third set of schemes. It is also the plan that we hope for the most. Ai Qian nodded, "They, they didn't see anything, that Ma Shoufu ......"

Ai Qian smiled and shook his head, "He couldn't see what was hidden in this third contract at all, and after we took out the third one, he couldn't wait to agree." ”

Min Ruoxi snorted softly: "My second brother, I didn't see it, and Ma Xiangdong, it's almost the same, they are all stupid." They think they have taken a big advantage, but they don't know that from now on, their economic lifeline will fall into the control of our Ming Dynasty step by step. When they came to their senses, the noose was already tightened, and it was not so easy to break free again. ”

"It's not that no one doesn't understand it at all, but those people have been fed with silver by us, and they have many other tricks in our hands, so they should naturally be blind."

"You're talking about the first few people in the household now, right?"

"Yes." Ai Qian nodded: "It's all peers, even if you can't see it deeply, you can always know that there are traps buried in this matter." So in advance, the Eagle's Nest thought about plugging this loophole. ”

"Those who know how to do it don't speak, and those who don't know how to pretend to understand." Min Ruoxi sneered: "It's only been a few years, and Da Chu has fallen to this point." If Yang Yi and Yang Xiang are still there, if you take out this peace agreement, he will throw it directly in your face. ”

"Niangniang, Yang Xiangruo is still here, how could Da Chu fall to this point today?" Ying Gu on the side shook her head and said: "Since the second prince ascended the throne, Da Chu has already buried the root of today's bane, if the king is unknown, the minister is not virtuous, and the country is not far away, the difference is just that we take it or it is taken by the Qi people." A Cheng Wu Ben, even if he is covered in iron, can hit thousands of nails, not to mention, Cheng Wu Ben is already difficult to protect himself. ”

"My second brother, he will not give up, in order to raise more money, he will inevitably spare no effort to exploit the Jiangnan region, that place is the origin of Da Chu, initially, or will support him, but with the aggravation of exploitation, it will inevitably begin to deviate from morality, and when it is also chaotic there, Da Chu will really be over." Min Ruoxi sighed and said: "What's more, in the third peace agreement, a big hole was dug for him for this reason." Ai Qian, these things are going to be used for maritime trade, right? ”

"Yes, this is how Lord Wang Yueyao planned, to get these things at a low price, and then ship them overseas to earn a high profit, so that he can fill the treasury in a short time, and now Daming, there are too many places to use money."

"Come to think of it, Wang Yueyao has prepared countless back-up plans." Min Ruoxi smiled bitterly: "I know her methods." ”

Ai Qian hesitated for a moment and said, "Lord Wang said that this is a five-year plan, and five years is enough for the Ming to swallow and digest the Qin State, and then there will be spare strength to come back and run the Chu State." ”
