It was a lively Spring Festival, and the Meyer Mansion was lit up with lights and a steady stream of guests. There are those who ask to see; There are gift-givers; The king was well entertained. After the Spring Festival, the king is going to travel, and now the weather is slowly getting warmer, and there is no need to bring a lot of clothes.

The king watched the silence of the moon, walked up to the moon, asked her to put down the clothes in her hand, and sat on the edge of the bed with the moon's hand. He whispered, "I'll be back soon." ”

Yuexia knelt in the king's arms and whispered, "Actually, if you don't run around like this, your current business is enough to make a living." ”

Women want to live a peaceful life, this is understandable to think about the king, but Zhao Zongshi will not let the king be peaceful, and he still has a lot of things to do, he comforted Yuexia and said: "Now that you are young and do more things, I will build you a big house when I get back, and we will be together as a family." I'll also take you with me to the fantasy I told you about. ”

Under the moon, the eyes listened to the king's usual telling her about some "illusions", and she had been looking forward to it for a long time. Seeing that the king said this, she was relieved, and then remembered something and asked: "Recently, I heard that the imperial court transferred Su Zizhan (Su Shi) and Shen Cunzhong (Shen Kuo) out of the capital; Will it affect Yunxuan's business? ”

Wang said lightly: "Yun Xuan didn't expect to make money, with Zhong Zhen and Yuan Ze taking care of him, it's okay." Wang Fang knew that these were normal transfers of the imperial court, but it was unknown whether there was any advice from the prince.

The next day, Wang Pan and He Xingyuan, Xiao Wu went to Jinxiang Mansion on the road, and after settling down, Wang Pan went to Yanzhou.

Three months later, it's time for spring to bloom.

At noon on this day, in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion of the Western Xia Kingdom, a man wearing a narrow-cut silk satin Western Xia dress came. He hurriedly walked into the mansion of Liang Yiburi, the minister of the Western Xia Kingdom, the clothes on his body showed his wealth and vulgar taste, but his face was dark and black.

The guards in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion saw that this person did not stop him, and after he walked in, the guards looked at the back of the man who ran in, and almost laughed out loud. Guard B whispered, "Bear with me, let him hear that he should be beaten." After saying that, he turned his head and snickered.

They didn't stop this person because this person was too famous, and it was not only his identity that was also famous, but also his royal dragon boot sole face.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Minister of State Liang Yi was discussing political affairs with the deputy envoy of the Third Division. In the past month or two, Zhang Jiang has been very anxious.

Just a few months ago, Liang Yi buried the third division to open salt storage and reduce the market price of salt. At that time, it really promoted the sale of salt for a few days. Western Xia was the source of green salt, and when it traded with the Song Kingdom, the control of green salt was the main financial revenue. Since the ban on discussions, there has been some profit from the private sale of official salt.

Recently, the situation of green salt has not been so optimistic, and now the Song State is marked with the price of salt in Western Xia. The price of salt in the Song Kingdom fluctuated with the Western Xia, and the supply was also sufficient. For a time, the green salt of the Western Xia Kingdom suffered heavy losses to the treasury due to the loss and price reduction, which also caused dissatisfaction among domestic salt merchants.

Liang Yibury was even more anxious: Yu Ma Si also came to report that there were not enough horse farms this year. There are two ways to solve the problem, kill the horse or give money to expand the horse farm. These two things were placed in front of Liang Yiburi, and he was having a big head.

The two of them were discussing countermeasures, and suddenly saw one of them hurriedly enter the hall. When he opened his mouth, he shouted: "Brother-in-law, there is trouble"

Liang Yibury and Zhang Jiang looked at the person who came, only to see the sweat on the person's forehead, and the sweat washed out the thick dust on his face one by one, as if he had been raked by a rake. Both of them are angry and funny.

When the visitor saw that Zhang Jiang was also there, he made a loud noise: "Master Zhang is also there, great, I'm looking for you." ”

Liang Yi glared at him: "There are no rules, didn't you see me and Master Zhang discuss?" He said dissatisfiedly.

The person who came was none other than Ji Laiqing, who was given the face of the bottom of the dragon boots. He hadn't dared to wash his face for months, sweating a little and scratching his nails with his hands. Now under the care of Liang Yiburi, he is the president of the Xixia Chamber of Commerce. He made such a fat difference, and just a few days after taking office, the Chamber of Commerce had an accident.

Ji Laqing also heard his brother-in-law say this, and took a few steps forward to whisper to Liang Yiburi, but Liang Yibury unconsciously dodged backwards, showing a slightly bored look.

Zhang Jiang saw that the two of them seemed to have a personal matter to talk about, and he stood up and was about to leave, but Ji Laqing hurriedly stopped him: "Master Zhang, something happened." You are the third envoy, this matter is in your charge, don't go! ”

Zhang Jiang glanced at Liang Yi and suppressed his anger and asked, "What advice does President Ji Spicy have?" "This guy is really annoying, one word at a time, and in a semi-commanding tone.

Liang Yibury was discussing with Zhang Jiang how to invite the emperor, and his brother-in-law Ji Raqing rushed in, and shouted that something had happened, looking at his bells and whistles face, Liang Yibury wanted to kick it again. "Say, what's the matter?" Liang Yibury said impatiently.

Ji Laqing stood there and rubbed his hands: "This, how can I say this, many merchants in the Chamber of Commerce say that they can't continue to operate, things can't be sold, and they say that the common people don't have money to buy it." They can't give money for processing, and they don't process anymore. Anyway, I can't do this job at the Chamber of Commerce. Saying that, he didn't wait for Liang Yibury to give up his seat, and found a seat for himself to sit down.

Zhang Jiang knew in his heart that the national strength of Western Xia was not good, and now Song Guo choked the throat of Xixia Exit, which affected the basic generation and processing. So far, all the government offices in the Western Xia are jointly managed by the Han Dynasty, and the Han people have not been important, and now there is finally a Han minister, Zhang Jiangcai hopes to change the situation that the Western Xia only relies on force to seek finances through Liang Yi's burial. "Lord Liang, in my opinion, you should discuss with the emperor and queen as soon as possible to resume Song and Xia."

Ji Laqing glanced at Zhang Jiang: "I'll tell you, I've inquired, this is all the kid next to the king, if you want me to say just fight the Song Kingdom, we have weapons, and some are horses." "The more I think about it, the more awkward it becomes, I heard that the king has been sealed as an official, and he has become a four-grade waiter; And he also heard about the current salt affairs, that is, Wang Bi and a person named Xue Xiang are making ghosts in Yanzhou.

What else did he have to say, Liang Yibury couldn't bear it anymore, and said fiercely: "Shut up!" ”。 This brother-in-law really bothered him.

Liang Yi buried himself very well in his heart that fighting a war is not good for anyone, although he failed in the Great Song Dynasty, but he also learned the war strategy and the way to govern the country. Now the Western Xia can't have a hard encounter with the Great Song Dynasty at all: at the moment, there is no shortage of horses and weapons in the Western Xia; What is lacking is people and money; Those who are well fed and able to fight, and enough money to pay the army and equip the food and grass.

Ji Laqing stood up: "Okay, okay, you are fierce, I'll go to my father and let my father play a fold." Ask for troops, I will personally take command! As he spoke, he walked out with his chest and neck up, with a muddy face.

Liang Yi didn't stop him, just snorted from his nose, your father has been targeted, now the Yi Wei Division has laid off the troops, and there is no need for the guards of the Yi Wei Division to guard it in the forbidden area, and it is the matter of the Privy Council to send troops to fight. Liang Yi sighed, if the Western Xia is over, he will be the prime minister, and after weighing the pros and cons, he said: "Then please ask Lord Zhang to prepare a fold, and I will persuade the emperor when I go to the court." ”

Liang Yi sent Zhang Jiang away, thinking about this matter, he should discuss it with the queen's sister first and listen to her opinion. He came to the palace and reported these things to the queen Liang Luoyao, and Liang Luoyao actually smiled: "If my brother is half as smart as the king, this Western Xia Kingdom will be saved." She said in a tucked tone.

Liang Yibury listened awkwardly, he did his best to do things, and most of them were also the queen's opinions, and now the queen blamed herself in turn, swallowing this breath, Liang Yibury asked: "Queen, then what do you say about trade?" ”

Liang Luoyao's face sank: "This is your minister's business, don't you know that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics?" ”

She was eager to draw a clear line with Liang Yiburi, but she didn't know who Li Liangzuo was instigated by, and she actually said in the previous paragraph, "This Yi Weisi is messing around in the palace, if he colludes with the inner palace, it will be too easy to assassinate the king." "The emperor knew that he had a relationship with the Ralei family, and he blamed his brother for marrying the daughter of Ralei.

Liang Yibury knew more about her sister, and knew that Liang Luoyao was unwilling to get involved in his affairs. What inner palace is not allowed to participate in politics, let alone Liang Luoyao, that is, the queens of the Western Xia, which one has not participated in politics? Looking at the way my sister laughs every time she mentions Wang Bian, you know that Liang Luoyao has a good impression of Wang Bian.

It seems that this sister can't be educated anymore, Liang Yibury said: "Queen, I don't know if I should say it or not." He said politely. How do you know that Liang Luoyao doesn't look at him: "You like to talk or not." ”

Liang Yi buried this anger, this sister is a typical crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, Li Liangzuo had just ascended the throne, and his sister assisted the government, and he did his best; Now that the situation is slowly stabilizing, Liang Luoyao has also cultivated his cronies, and some ministers have skipped themselves as the prime minister to talk directly to the queen. He secretly scolded in his heart, you are beautiful! I don't believe there is no time when I won't be needed. Anyway, I'm your brother.

"Queen, the king is very cunning, this person can't be trusted! Even if it is a trade, you should ask the Song State to send another envoy, and ask your sister to communicate more with the emperor in private. ”

Liang Luoyao didn't think so in her heart, Wang was young and handsome, and he didn't say anything about attracting people, but he still had a sense of proportion in his eyes. At least in the matter of Baishi, Wang Bi helped a lot. Besides, this Li Liangzuo is greedy for fun all day long, and it is two days of freshness for everyone. If you want to control the overall situation of Western Xia, it would be good to have the help of someone like Wang Bian. She glanced at Liang Yibury and said slowly, "I think Wang is very smart, isn't my brother still holding a grudge because he refuses to see you?" ”

Liang Yibury was kind-hearted, Liang Yuexia didn't appreciate it at all, and seeing the matter so far, Liang Yibury finally said: "The queen thinks clearly, the king is not the emperor, and the emperor is not a son without a collector." ”

Liang Luoyao patted the book case: "Bold! Dare to talk to Hongu like this, get out! "Damn Liang Yi buried, Liang Luoyao scolded secretly.

Liang Yibury almost pointed to Liang Luoyao's nose and said: The queen seduced the emperor to kill the whole family, and wanted to seduce the king to go back to the old way. Seeing that Liang Luoyao was really angry, Liang Yi left the palace in a huff.

The brother and sister turned against each other, and Liang Luoyao was also weak-hearted and aggressive. What is Li Liangzuo, how is the Queen of Western Xia, what she wants is like Wu Zetian. It's just that in this remote place far away from the Central Plains, what she can use is her identity as the queen of Western Xia and the opportunity to trade with the Song State to learn more about the Song Kingdom.
