Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Unpredictable Heart

When Lan Youcheng heard Zhu Ao say this, he let go of Zhu Ao's thighs, knelt on the ground and lowered his eyebrows and said, "Thank you for saving your life, the sinner girl has no way to repay her broken bones." ”

Lan Youcheng's mother also knelt down to thank Zhu Ao. But Zhu Ao didn't care about their mother and daughter at this time, waved his hand and walked away, he was now going to take the initiative to find Geng Bingwen to find out what was going on?

Geng Bingwen was reclining on the Luohan bed enjoying the maid's massage service, and when he heard Zhu Ao ask about Lan Youcheng, he patted his head and said, "Oh, look at the minister's memory." It's really old, it's useless, such a big thing, the minister actually forgot about it. ”

Zhu Ao didn't follow his words and said, "Dare to ask Changxinghou what's going on?" Hasn't Lan Yu been wiped out by the three clans? Why does he still have a daughter and a concubine in this king's place? ”

Geng Bingwen said with a smile: "Your Highness really doesn't know or pretends to be confused, the emperor already knows about this little girl's friendship, so he specially spared her and her mother to let them come and serve you." ”

Zhu Ao's face couldn't help but change, this kind of political hat can't be worn casually, and Zhengse said: "Dare to ask Changxing Hou, what kind of friendship does this king have with that little girl?" ”

Geng Bingwen said: "When His Royal Highness was in the Jingshi Jisheng Hall, didn't he give her some money to buy medicine?" If there is no friendship, how can you do such a thing? His Majesty knew about this, so he kept the lives of their mothers and did not kill them, and sent the old minister to send them to His Highness. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Ao felt a cold sweat in his heart, the little thing that the king gave a little girl a few dollars would know about the old Zhu? It seems that this brocade guard is really pervasive, when Zhu Ao of the previous and later generations read the history of the Ming Dynasty, he was also suspicious of the perverted intelligence network established by Lao Zhu, thinking that it was an exaggeration in the history books, but now he really understands it.

With a thorn in his back, Lao Zhu really doesn't even worry about his son, so he has to be closely monitored.

Zhu Ao calmed down, let out a sigh of relief, and said lightly: "At the beginning, this king just saw that she was a dignified daughter of a cool country, and she didn't even have money for her mother's medical treatment, so he lent her some money, and there was no friendship. ”

Geng Bingwen said with a smile: "In that case, then the old minister will give their mother and daughter to death, after all, they are Lan Yu's family." ”

Zhu Ao was full of joy, he was not able to accept the punishment of the three clans from later generations, the so-called one person does things and one person is responsible, why should he implicate women, children, the old and weak, what big waves can they make? The only little sense of justice left in his heart prompted him to say with a straight face: "No need! Since the father and the emperor sent their mother and daughter to this king, it is a forgiveness of their capital crimes. The father is the son of the great tomorrow, how can he change the order overnight. Let them remain with the king and work. ”

Geng Bingwen bowed slightly and said, "The old minister listens to the prince." There is another matter, the old minister has the courage to urge His Highness. ”

Zhu Ao naturally knew what he was talking about, and said: "This king is considering the rhetoric for the past two days, and in two days, he will give the document of the reply to the Marquis of Changxing." ”

Geng Bingwen's eyes shone brightly, and he stared at Zhu Ao with a smile and said, "What difficulties does Your Highness have?" ”

Nima! It's really a murder without a knife, it's really an old treacherous and cunning!

Zhu Ao said: "What difficulties can this king have!" In any case, the original intention of this king is also to build the land west of the river well, so as to share the worries of his father. The emperor is the father of this king, and this king is loyal to the king's heart, what difficulties can there be? ”

On the one hand, this is a justification, on the other hand, it is a warning, no matter how you say that Lao Tzu is also Lao Zhu's son, as long as you don't rebel, even if you stab the sky, Lao Zhu will wipe Lao Tzu's ass, you'd better be smarter.

Geng Bingwen has been immersed in Yin officialdom for many years, so he naturally understood the meaning of Zhu Ao's words, and arched his hand: "It seems that the old minister is too worried." The old minister also cares about His Highness. ”

Zhu Ao glanced at him angrily, and suddenly thought that Geng Bingwen was the emperor's envoy, and he would definitely report the situation here to Lao Zhu after he went back, why didn't he take him to see his achievements in Tuntian, so that he went back and told Lao Zhu that Lao Zhu might be able to change his mind a little.

Lao Zhu's eyeliner is all over the world, and he can know such a trivial matter as lending money to Lan Youcheng, how can he not arrange eyeliner in Su Fan, maybe that group of people would have already reported the situation here to Lao Zhu, but with the report of Geng Bingwen, the righteous and bright emperor's envoy, all this is more convincing.

In this case, forgive him Geng Bingwen didn't dare to chew the root of his tongue in front of Lao Zhu!

Zhu Ao changed his pleasant expression and said, "Can the Marquis of Changxing accompany this king to go down for a walk?" ”

The old fox Geng Bingwen didn't know Zhu Ao's thoughts, but the most important task for him to come to the domain was to investigate and report everything Zhu Ao did to Lao Zhu, and of course he would also quietly report to Zhu Yunwen, so it was necessary to go down to visit.

But Zhu Ao is the prince after all, he can't secretly go to investigate people, and he is worried that he can't find an excuse to go down, Zhu Ao said this, Geng Bingwen immediately got off the donkey, and said: "Thank you Your Highness for your kindness, the old minister has long wanted to appreciate the scenery of this Hexi land, and by the way, I will pay tribute to His Royal Highness's achievements in governing Hexi." ”

Zhu Ao smiled faintly and said, "This king is young, and he still needs the guidance of the Marquis of Changxing." ”

Geng Bingwen said again and again: "Don't dare, don't dare." Then Pi smiled and followed Zhu Ao out of Zhangye City.

Geng Bingwen was shocked by the scenes along the way, everyone he saw, whether it was slaves or military families and their families, were all working in full swing, and none of them were lazy. Countless wastelands have been reclaimed, water canals have been dredged, and more importantly, there are irrigation tools like large water wheels, which are really ingenious, and I don't know how much manpower and material resources have been saved. Geng Bingwen is not a hairy child like Zhu Yunwen who has not left the deep palace, his old eyes are vicious, and he can see at a glance that according to this dry method, next year's Su Fan will definitely be a bumper harvest.

Zhu Ao looked at Geng Bingwen's gloomy and uncertain expression, sneered in his heart, and said politely: "How is the government of this king's tuntian?" Please also ask Changxinghou for some advice. ”

Geng Bingwen came back to his senses and said: "The prince is really a man of great talent, if this continues, Su Fan will definitely reclaim a large amount of fertile land." Just ........."

"Just what?" Zhu Ao stared at Geng Bingwen, still smiling and said, "Please Changxing Hou for more advice." ”

Geng Bingwen raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Ao, feeling that his questions were redundant, but he still couldn't help asking: "It's just that His Highness has cultivated so much land, can he finish planting?" If you can't plant it all, wouldn't it be a waste of manpower and material resources? ”
