Entering the inn, the group entered the upstairs wing room and sat down under the arrangement of the shopkeeper. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
During the banquet, Yang Shen and Li Fan chatted, and Yang Shen intended to test Li Fan's knowledge, so he talked with him about some military and political policies of the current dynasty.
This Li Fan's insight is not bad, especially for some inappropriate government affairs of the current dynasty, the refutation is very reasonable.
It seems that he hasn't had a good conversation with people for a long time, Li Fan's conversation is very strong, and Yang Shen intends to persuade him to drink, and when the wine is dry, Li Fan is drunk, and his mouth begins to become less and less open, and he is getting more and more bold when talking about some sensitive issues.
Even between his words, he faintly pointed out to Yang Shen that many family members of the gate valve almost completely blocked the road of advancement of the children of the Han family, although there was a imperial examination system in the dynasty, but almost all of them were the children of the family and the gate valve, which made the social contradictions more and more serious, which was very inappropriate.
Even if this Li Fan's bearing is different from ordinary people, as a poor family and has tried repeatedly, when he talks about this, there is also a hint of resentment in his words.
Yang Shen listened, but smiled lightly.
As a person with a vested interest, he has no accusatory position and does not want to express his views on the issue casually.
Although, if one day in the future he can really lead the Yang family to the peak in this great world that is about to surge, this will also become a problem he has to face.
Fortunately, Li Fan only touched on this topic slightly, and when he saw that Yang Shen did not react, he did not mention it again, avoiding an embarrassing scene during the banquet.
For a long time, Li Fan fell drunk on the table. Yang Shen ordered Yang Lian to call Xiao Er to come in and help him into the guest room to rest.
Yang Shen smiled at Ye Lingbo and said, "What does Madam think of this person?" ā
Ye Lingbo didn't say a word during the banquet, with her special spiritual sense, she could faintly grasp the essence of a person, and observed Li Fan's speech and demeanor on the side, she already had a general judgment about this person, at this time her husband asked, she said: "Shabby and humble without feeling humble, seeing a rich person without stammering, this person's demeanor is extraordinary." It's just that he seems to have been unwilling for many years, and he has suppressed a deep resentment in his heart. If you are in power for a while, you may inevitably act in a radical way. ā
Her temperament is like a fairy, her voice is ethereal like a dream, and she is telling it eloquently at this moment, which is really a rare enjoyment in Yang Shen's ears.
Yang Shen smiled slightly: "I thought it was just a casual move, but now it seems that this person may be able to achieve something in the future." He slowly explained the intention of this action to Ye Lingbo.
Ye Lingbo snorted and said, "Your Yang family is really interesting. But it's a good thing to do."
Yang Shen smiled, hugged Ye Lingbo in his arms, and said in her crystal jade little ear: "Madam, what you said is not right, don't forget, you are also a member of the Yang family now, you should say 'we'." ā
Ye Lingbo said angrily: "Cai'er is still there!" When Ye Cai saw this scene, she had already blushed.
Yang Shen glanced at Ye Cai, shook his head and said, "What are you afraid of, this girl will also be in the master's room sooner or later." ļ¼
Ye Lingbo grabbed one of Yang Shen's ears with his little hand, and said with a smile: "Master Yang, you can do it!" After only two days of marriage, the idea hit his wife's personal maid. ā
Yang Shen looked at this posture, deeply regretted that he had leaked his mouth, and exposed his lust prematurely, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Good lady, it's just a joke for your husband, if you really have this kind of thought, don't you have to be the lady to call the shots?" ā
Ye Lingbo listened, and snorted lightly: "It's good to know." If you dare to mess with flowers and grass outside, don't think about beating me as a girl. ā
Yang Shen was the first to lose, so he had to whisper and say, "Listen to Mrs. for your husband." ļ¼
Yang Shen and Ye Lingbo didn't plan to stay in this inn for long, and soon left with Yang Lian, Ye Cai, and the guards.
It took half an hour for Yang Shen and Ye Lingbo to return to the Yang Mansion.
At this time, the sunset is shining, and it is not early.
The backlog of a day's affairs was not dealt with, Yang Shen went to the study, and Ye Lingbo went to the bathroom to take a bath. Walking outside for a day, as a girl, the most important thing for Ye Lingbo at this time is to take a bath.
After an hour and a half, Yang Shen handled the affairs in his hand almost completely, and there were only a few notes left on the table.
Although he is still only 16 years old in his two lifetimes combined, he naturally cannot be compared with the time-tested bureaucrats in the court when it comes to profound experience and understanding of world affairs and human affairs, but after all, he came from the era of the information explosion in China, and when it comes to the breadth of knowledge and knowledge, I am afraid that no one in the world can match him.
In addition, the original body of this body had already gone through a two-year learning period long before officially dealing with family affairs, so he was able to peel back the cocoon of many complicated things and handle them in an orderly manner.
Picking up one casually, Yang Shen thought that he would be able to go to the room to rest soon. Thinking of Ye Lingbo's world-shattering fairy face and moving figure, his heart was on fire.
It's just that, suddenly, Yang Shen's eyes froze, and his face slowly turned iron-blue.
The reason why Yang Shen was angry was related to the Tuhun people.
The content on the note shows that yesterday afternoon, the Tuhun people asked to see Li Shimin and asked Li Shimin to marry Li Qiuyu, the princess of Qianqiu, and Li Shimin readily agreed.
In Li Shimin's opinion, it is really cost-effective to use a princess to further befriend the Tuhun people on the Northeast Plateau who have almost been able to compete with the Yang family over the years.
If it was just that, Yang Shen would not be angry. If the Li family didn't want the world to be in chaos, it would be impossible to position the Yang family as a traitor, and there would be no situation where the Chu State and Tuhun would join forces to attack Qingzhou, and the Tuhun people would not be able to make big waves.
As for marrying a princess, Li Qiuyu's fate may be more tragic, but what does this matter to Yang Shen?
However, the dowry demanded from Li Shimin by the Tuhun people was very problematic in Yang Shen's opinion.
Tuhun people did not ask Li Shimin for things as soon as he opened his mouth, he said this to Li Shimin, he said that we wait for Tuhun people to drink blood, lack of food to eat, no clothes to wear, I have heard of Your Majesty's kindness for a long time, and I beg Your Majesty to save me is equivalent to being in dire straits.
Li Shimin was very happy to hear the Tuhun people say that he was kind, but of course he would not be so stupid as to be coaxed by others to ask for something with a good word, but the Tuhun people still want to be appeased, so he said that if you have any requirements, as long as it is not too much, I will give it to you as a dowry for Princess Qianyu.
Tuhun people say that our requirements are very simple, very easy to do, we only need some books, we Tuhun people do not have their own culture, but they yearn for the culture of the Central Plains, and want to learn all kinds of knowledge from you. There are books on poetry, scriptures, history, agriculture, medicine, astronomy, calendars, etc.
In addition, the Tuhun people also said, "Your Majesty, we are poor, and our stomachs are often not full, please have mercy on us, and give us some grains, vegetables, and fruit tree seeds, so that we may reduce the number of people who die of hunger by planting these things."
In addition, the Central Plains people can build houses, make tables, make hoes and other kinds of tools, we Tuhun people are very envious, I hope you can send us some craftsmen.
When Li Shimin heard that the requirements of the Tuhun people were really low, and the crop seeds, books, and craftsmen were not valuable, he waved his hand and agreed.
"Idiot" Yang Shen scolded fiercely, he suddenly laughed, there was a hint of cruelty in that laughter, and a wolf-like light shot out of his eyes: "If you want craftsmen, seeds, and technical books, hehe, be your mother's spring and autumn dream!" ā
