Chapter 52: Borrowing Grain from the East Palace (Part II)
(Ask for collection, ask for recommendation) This is obviously two copper coins that have not been used, as soon as he started, Yang Guang felt that his palm was pressed down by these two copper coins, and secretly thought: This money is good enough! To take a closer look, I saw that the two copper coins of Pingzheng and Zhou Zheng were engraved with four clear seal characters, and they were vaguely recognized as the four words "Kaihuang Five Plants".

In the days when he was a "national treasure explanation star" before the crossing, he had stopped in front of the display cabinet of ancient coins in the Provincial Museum more than once, but he had never seen such a brand-new copper coin, and when he looked down carefully, he couldn't help but ask Yang Yong in surprise: "This is the sample money of my father's newly minted copper coin?" ”
Yang Yong smiled and nodded: "Yes, according to my father's original intention, I wanted to start minting new money two or three months later, but because Chang'an rice is expensive and prices have soared in recent days, I ordered Shaofu to open the furnace and cast it in advance." When the first batch of new money is forged, the father will issue an edict, all over the country to clear the new money in the country's customs clearance passes, gradually recycle the old money, push the shape of the new coin, after a year and a half, the world circulation is the father's 'five plants'. ”
Headed by Yang Guang, together with the two middle-aged palace officials and Yu Zan, everyone in the Yichun Hall bowed down and praised in unison: "Congratulations to my emperor on the completion of new money and benefiting the world." ”
"Ah Zong, if you remember this palace well, this is the first time you have come back to the East Palace, right?" Yang Yong waved his hand to signal Ji Wei to move a stool and place it in the position at the bottom left of him, motioned for Yang Guang to sit down and speak, and then pointed to the two middle-aged palace officials and introduced him, "These two, one is the prince's right concubine Lu Ben, and the other is the prince's family commander Zou Wenteng, both of whom are close to the palace. ”
Yang Guang opened his mouth, but he finally felt ashamed to speak, so he had to look at Yuzan with a look of help.
Yu Zan knew that Yang Guang was thin-skinned, and he was embarrassed to borrow food from Yang Yong, so he took a few steps forward, came to stand in front of Yang Yong, and said with a smile: "Qiqi Prince, my prince came tonight, one is to ask the prince for peace and greetings, and the other is to ask the prince for your instructions......
Yang Yong is nearly ten years older than Yang Guang, and since his father Yang Jian entered the court and opened the palace as the prime minister in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he has participated in the government more, and is very shrewd and skilled. Someone slipped into your house a few days ago, didn't you startle her, right? ”
Yang Guang suddenly heard Yang Yong ask about the thief in his house a few days ago, and he didn't understand what he wanted to say to himself, so he had to respond vaguely: "It's all good, it's all good, it's all good, so the eldest brother is worried." ”
Yang Yong looked around at the people in the hall and said meaningfully to Yang Guang: "Now that Qianniuwei has returned to the palace, if necessary, I can send some more people to your mansion to guard." As long as the eldest sister refuses to accept the title of Princess Da Sui for a day, some people will not give up, and your Jin Palace, I am afraid that it will not be peaceful for a day. ”
At this point, Yang Guangcai suddenly realized the deep meaning contained in Yang Yong's words, and he thought of Su Weicai's mention of the thieves in his mansion when he was in the Wude Hall today, and his father Yang Jian was busy talking about it, deliberately avoiding talking about it publicly in front of the ministers, and suddenly seemed to understand the real intention of his mother Dugu Jialuo to ask Li Yuan to pass on the word to him, and to invite his eldest sister Yang Lihua to move to live in the Jin Palace: The mother did not just ask Yang Lihua to live with her for the marriage of her daughter. was worried that the queen and queen mother of the previous dynasty would be used, so he specially handed her over to his own supervision.
Thinking like this, Yang Guang couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart: Li Yuan personally led Qianniuwei into the palace early in the morning of the day after the uninvited guest came to the Jin Palace, which was obviously an arrangement that his mother had expected and had made in advance. If this is the case, even myself has now become the object of surveillance. Before, he mistakenly thought that his mother doted on him, but he never imagined that in his mother's mind, he was not as trustworthy as Li Yuan's nephew.
"Yes, Prince. There are not many households in the name of our prince, and the princess and others have moved into the mansion to live, and now more than 100 Qianniuwei soldiers have been added to eat in the mansion, and they dare not deceive the prince, and this day is becoming more and more sad. Seeing that Yang Guang was just sitting there in a daze, Yu Zan refused to let go of the opportunity to open his mouth to borrow food from Yang Yong, and spoke again.
The prince's family ordered Zou Wenteng and Yu Zan to be familiar with each other, and in the East Palace is similar to Yu Zan, he listened to the meaning of Yu Zan's words, as if he was crying to the prince, his heart moved, and asked: "Yufu Peng, although the prince and the king of Jin have the division of monarchs and ministers, they are actually the same mother's compatriots, what is the difficulty in the house, you can say it to the prince directly, how can the prince sit idly by?" ”
Yang Yong also realized at this time that he had guessed wrong: Yang Guang did not come here for the incident that happened in his house a few days ago, but for something else, so he nodded and echoed Zou Wenteng and said: "Wenteng's words are very true. Ah Zong, what can't you say in front of your eldest brother? If you can't supply food and grass in your house, but you have to tell me the amount, the palace will send it to you immediately. ”
Yang Guang was encouraged by the eldest brother, so he mustered up his courage and said with a red face: "There is no food for the next day in the younger brother's house, I pointed to the Grange to send some food, but I didn't expect that it was now when the green and yellow were not available, and the Grange was also broken......"
When Yang Yong heard what he said, he almost didn't laugh out loud, thinking in his heart: Everyone has a legend that his second brother has thousands of furniture hidden in his house, but there is no exception in the whole house, he dresses like a farmer's family, and he is a well-known master. Today, he must have been reluctant to buy grain at a high price to support the 100 Qianniuwei soldiers, and he came to ask him for grain and grass.
"Anyway, how much do you need?" Once he understood the meaning of Yang Guang's trip, Yang Yongqiang held back the smile in his belly and asked directly.
"I need to borrow about a hundred grains of rice from the East Palace to survive the current famine." Yang Guang avoided Yang Yong's gaze and said in a low voice.
Good guy, if you open your mouth, you will borrow a hundred grains of rice!
Yang Yong frowned slightly, subconsciously glanced at Zou Wenteng who was sitting down, and saw that he shook his head lightly at him, and he already understood in his heart: There is not so much grain in the granary of the East Palace that can be lent to Yang Guang at the moment.
But he pleases himself as the prince of a country and Yang Guang's eldest brother, although he feels embarrassed in his heart, he pretends to be casual on the surface, shakes the two newly cast "Kaiyuan Five Plants" in his hand, and says to Yang Guang with a smile: "In this way, I will order Wen Teng to send someone to send ten grains and rice to your house tonight to meet the needs of the moment." I didn't mention it to you, my father intends to reward each prince with a coinage furnace, and the supplies needed by each royal palace will need to come out of this coinage furnace in the future. The eldest sister's attendants and the food and rice required by the soldiers of Qianniuwei, will urge the palace to have a division tomorrow, and distribute it as soon as possible, there is no need for you to do this! ”
His words sounded reasonable to Yang Guang, not only borrowed ten grains of rice for himself, but also promised to solve the problem of providing for the new population in the house for himself, and by the way, he also revealed a way to make money to himself. So, he stood up, with a smile on his face, and was about to thank Yang Yong for saluting, but saw Yuzan moving his fat body, and he blocked him again.
