After listening to Zhao Ziji and Yu Shu's words, Concubine Yun looked a little better, and Concubine Yun was not an unreasonable person, so she said to Xiu Zhiming: "This business is that there has been a lot of trouble in the capital for a while, let's say, what are you going to do?" ”

Xiu Zhiming said: "Back to my aunt's words, Ziheng has already told my nephew before, this business is ...... You can go through Sichuan, but it's just ...... It's too costly, so ...... I hope the imperial court can make some compensation! ”

"Compensation?" When Zhao Ziji heard this, he said a little unhappily: "The general also knows that now the imperial court has to make every effort to prepare for the war with the Liao State, and I am afraid that the household department will not have extra money to support the expansion of the trade road......"

Yu Shu listened, and nodded and said, "Then forget it...... The income of the imperial court is the people's fat and people's ointment of the people of the world, for the sake of his father's own selfish wishes, to waste this lot of people's fat and people's ointment, so what face will the palace face the people in the future? ”

Hearing Yu Shu's words, Concubine Yun nodded, and then said, "Good boy! At the beginning, the first emperor's vision was really good, and being able to think about the people proved that you were a good queen, but then again, it was a bit too much to say that your father was a selfish wish, after all, he also wanted to have some well-being for the people in Sichuan! ”

Concubine Yun said this, and Xiu Zhiming said: "My aunt is right, but the general's meaning is not to ask the court to pay money, nor to ask the people for the people's fat and people's ointment!" In that case...... The grass people said directly, the emperor ...... The general said that Dali is located in southern Xinjiang, it is a small border country, and it has always belonged to the heart of the Central Plains, so the general feels that it should not be difficult to subdue Dali, and it happens that the two generals of the planting family are carrying the power of the great victory of Tubo to make the southern Xinjiang submit, so the general hopes that the emperor can let the two generals follow the grass people to Dali for a trip......"

Hearing this, Concubine Yun asked, "What are you doing in Dali?" ”

Xiu Zhiming replied: "Naturally, I want to make a deal with the Duan family in Dali, hehe...... Dali's domestic copper mines are tempting......"

Hearing the words of Xiu's name, Concubine Yun, Zhao Ziji and the queen didn't understand.

This Dali state-owned copper mine?

And...... What does this have to do with road construction?

Zhao Ziji asked in the name of Xiu: "The copper mine of this Dali country, could it be that the general said it?" ”

Xiu Zhiming nodded and replied, "Your Majesty, the general did say so, and ...... The copper mines in Dali are said to be more than the copper mines of our An Dynasty, but the ancestors of our An Dynasty abandoned Dali, which is a pity, so the general asked me to go to Dali and make a deal with the Duan family! ”

"Then ......," Concubine Yun asked, "What does this have to do with road construction?" ”

Xiuzhi said: "To Dali is also to take Sichuan, if the court agreed, this cement road can be repaired to Sichuan all the way to Dali, in the future copper mining out, it is good to transport some!" ”

Concubine Yun, Zhao Ziji and Yu Shu all understood, and after figuring out some things, Yu Shu couldn't help but sigh: "It's really a blessing for the An Dynasty to have a talent like the general, none of us can solve this problem, but when it comes to the general, everything is not a problem, it's just ...... Will the Dali agree to make this deal with us? ”

"Yes!" Without answering in the name of Xiu, Zhao Ziji replied very confidently: "I, An Chao, am the lord of the world, and Dali is just a small country in southern Xinjiang, do they dare not agree?" ”

Xiu Zhiming said: "The emperor is right! If they are not afraid of the army of our An Dynasty, they will refuse to be, but ...... Dali has always been indisputable, the army is only tens of thousands, and ...... Dali has always been a subordinate state of our An Dynasty, and there is absolutely no reason to refuse! ”

Zhao Ziji nodded, and then said to Xiu Zhiming: "The general's plan is very good, it not only solves my problem, but also makes money from Dali's copper mines, I have absolutely no reason to oppose it, so ...... I will send someone to Dali with my cousin, and with my messenger, I believe that the lord of Dali will not be unreasonable! ”

With Zhao Ziji's support, things were of course better, so Xiu Zhiming hurriedly thanked Zhao Ziji.

The matter was solved in this way, and then on the side of the Yuan Kingdom, Zhang Xiaojie also took the guards to the Great Wall, and then came to Shengzhou, after seeing Xiao Guanyin and Xiao Mo, Zhang Xiaojie bowed to the two and said: "The minister has seen the princess and the horse!" ”

This is the second time that Xiao Mo and Zhang Xiaojie have met, and when they met for the first time, Xiao Mo still had to meet Zhang Xiaojie, at that time Xiao Mo was just an envoy of the An Dynasty to Liao, and Zhang Xiaojie was the governor of Liao, but it was only a little more than a year.

Xiao Mo smiled at Zhang Xiaojie and said, "Lord Zhang, why are you so polite? ”

Zhang Xiaojie said: "The princess and the concubine are respectful, and the lower officials are ministers, so naturally they should salute!" ”

I have long heard that Zhang Xiaojie is a figure who is left and right, and when I saw it today, it was better to meet than to hear it, Xiao Mo hurriedly welcomed Zhang Xiaojie in, and then Xiao Guanyin asked Zhang Xiaojie: "Why did Lord Xiangguo come to Shengzhou?" ”

Zhang Xiaojie said: "Back to the princess, the An Dynasty sent a messenger to Shangjing to marry the princess for the concubine, the emperor has agreed, and ordered the ministers to escort the princess to the An Dynasty ......"

Xiao Guanyin listened, then glanced at Xiao Mo, and then said: "You go down first, I have a few words to say with the horse!" ”

Zhang Xiaojie obeyed the order and retreated, and then Xiao Guanyin asked Xiao Mo, "When did this happen?" ”

Xiao Mo said: "My good sister, it's the beginning of April......

"What?" Xiao Guanyin asked: "Xiao Lang, you have hidden it from me so hard, it has been more than a month before I know ......"

Xiao Mo listened, and quickly took out Yun Xue's letter from his arms, and then showed it to Xiao Guanyin.

Xiao Guanyin finished reading Yun Xue's letter, and then said, "It seems that ...... You are all hiding it from me, now it's okay, I will see the eldest princess in the future, she still thinks that I have avoided her for so long, I am angry with her, Xiao Lang...... You have wronged me by my sisters! ”

Xiao Guanyin said well, she never returned to Kaifeng, and Yun Xue also wrote a letter on behalf of the women of the Xiao family to persuade her, but Xiao Guanyin still did not go to Kaifeng, so Xiao Guanyin was worried that those women of the Xiao family would think she was hypocritical.

Xiao Mo knew that Xiao Guanyin had no objection to going to Kaifeng now, so he persuaded Xiao Guanyin: "Sister is too careful, who doesn't know that sister, you are the princess of Yuanguo?" This matter of marrying a princess naturally can't be hasty, besides, with Master Zhang accompanying you, they also understand when they come to Yunxue, where will you be wronged? ”

Xiao Guanyin thought about it, and finally thought about it, so he put his face to Xiao Mo's ear and said, "Okay, Xiao Lang, I will go to Kaifeng, but I will become your wife, so we will ...... tonight."

Needless to say, tonight is naturally a boundless spring......
