Chapter 468: A Trip to Dali
Life is so wonderful, the air is so fresh, Yue Shaoan took a deep breath, and a happy smile bloomed on his face, this kind of life is exactly what he wants, every day with his beloved woman, laughing and scolding, and drinking happily.
He drank a little wine and hummed a little song, but every time he raised his eyes to look at the northern sky and looked down at the backyard house, he inevitably felt a trace of melancholy in his heart......
After a glass of wine, he put down his glass, got up and walked towards the main hall, he seemed to put aside those troublesome business, but he knew in his heart that if he did not care about these things, then the present day would be almost over.
Now he is like a boat sailing against the current, if he does not advance, he will retreat, and there is no possibility of staying here without moving.
After Wen Chengfang and others were called, Yue Shaoan implemented a new plan, that is, to hoard grain, of course, you can't directly buy the surrounding grain to hoard, in this way, it is easy for some people with intentions to make a big fuss.
Therefore, Yue Shao'an and Wen Chengfang agreed to secretly support the merchants to run the grain business in the Song Shicheng, and the bigger the better, so as to facilitate the quiet hoarding, although Yue Shaoan didn't say anything to Wen Chengfang, but Wen Chengfang understood that the emperor should be slowing down what he was doing, and he usually hoarded a large amount of grain when preparing for war.
Therefore, when Wen Chengfang said this matter, he was very serious, but Yue Shaoan was diametrically opposed to him, and he said it lightly, as if this matter had little to do with him.
Speaking of this, Yue Shaoan immediately asked about the banquet in the evening, which made Wen Chengfang not react for a while, the importance of these two things in his heart was worlds apart, and looking at Yue Shaoan's tone of conversation, it seemed to be exactly the same.
Yue Shao'an's performance made Wen Chengfang a little uncomfortable for a while, and he was stunned for a while, then he nodded and explained the matter to Yue Shao'an.
Yue Shaoan didn't wait to finish listening, so he left hastily, and only said a word about the matter here and handed it over to you, and then disappeared, leaving only Wen Chengfang, who was stunned again.
In the end, Wen Chengfang shook his head, he became more and more incomprehensible to the emperor, and sometimes felt that he didn't care about anything, but every time he understated the things he explained, it was extremely important......
A busy day, in the evening, the Song Shifu was lively, all kinds of officials, all invited over, they all learned from various channels that Yue Shao'an would go to Dali, for a while, the sound of congratulations continued......
Yue Shaoan responded with a smile one by one, facing these backbone officials in Song Shicheng, he deliberately wooed them, although these people are his subordinates, but the combination of grace and power Yue Shaoan understands that he wants the people below to do things for himself, and the law is strict so it cannot be wasted, but the human touch cannot be without.
Their salaries can't go up, officials at all levels, and the imperial court have standards, even if Song Shicheng now has full power, Yue Shao'an has the final say, and it is difficult for him to break this rule, so as not to disagree with officials in other places.
However, everything is flexible, the emperor has to talk about marriage, and it is reasonable to send some red envelopes, so the officials in the Song Shicheng have received a lot of extraneous wealth according to the size of their official positions, their importance and their personal merits.
After the red envelope was distributed, the officials thanked him and naturally could not avoid vulgarity, and the emperor's speech was not exempt from vulgarity, but when the emperor finished speaking, all the officials knew a lot in their hearts.
This time is really not just about giving money, according to the emperor's meaning, this is called high salary, I have given you money here, you have to do a good job and can't be lazy, let alone take bribes, otherwise the knife that cuts off the head will be much heavier than the silver in your hand.
In fact, even if Yue Shaoan didn't do this, with the current atmosphere of Song Shicheng, no official would dare to bend the law for personal gain, even if there were some small favors, they would only dare to be lenient at most.
However, after this incident, in the days to come, the wind of incorruptibility will be even more than before, although it cannot be done without a trace of injustice, but compared with other cities, it is a hundred times better.
The banquet lasted until late at night before it dispersed, after the banquet, Yue Shaoan saw Gu Zhang alone, during this time Gu Zhang's expression was obviously much better than before, the ups and downs of life, he experienced it, only now did he understand the value of family affection.
Not only did his daughter not die, but she also gave herself an extra grandson, bathed in the joy of family, so that his old body was actually glowing again.
After having a deep talk with the old father-in-law of the former party leader, Yue Shao'an had a deep positioning for the future direction of Song Shicheng, and in this conversation, Yue Shao'an also heard Gu Zhang's implied meaning, being inside Song Shicheng, Gu Zhang was a high-level person, because he was Yue Shao'an's father-in-law, Wen Chengfang did not hide it from him in some places, therefore, with his sensitivity to political affairs, he had already understood Yue Shao'an's thoughts.
In this speech, Gu Zhang also faintly revealed his views and attitudes to Yue Shao'an, although Gu Zhang just said that when people are old, they don't want to do more tossing, they just want to accompany Ning Er and Xiao An, so that they can be safe and happy, and they will be satisfied.
However, it was this sentence that made Yue Shaoan very happy, and with this sentence, Gu Zhang's intention was obvious to him that he would stand on the side of his daughter and grandson.
Of course, Ning Er and her son are on their side, and there is no doubt that Gu Zhang is also on their side.
However, Gu Zhang's practice of not saying it explicitly until now still made Yue Shaoan can't help but chuckle, the old fox is an old fox after all, and he has to make a few twists and turns in everything, leaving no one to say.
I don't know if Ning Er knew that Yue Shao'an would have commented on his father like this, she would have grabbed Yue Shao'an's ears and scolded the "bad guy". However, Yue Shaoan was scolded because of his son.
Sending Gu Zhang away, Yue Shao'an, who was full of alcohol, touched his son in Ning'er's room, it was already late at night, the little guy was already asleep, he pinched his little hand, touched his little face, and after a while, he opened a loud voice and issued a strong protest against his hippie smiling father.
In fact, Mr. Yue's majesty of his father and the emperor didn't work, Yue Shao'an coaxed for a while, and after it didn't work, he yelled, I am your father, you have to be obedient.
The little guy is kicking and kicking with his little arms and legs, what kind of momentum does his father have, which makes his mother unhappy, although he is a mother, but Ning'er is not yet twenty years old, and her cute appearance of pouting and being angry makes Yue Shaoan quickly defeated.
In the face of this "arrogant" mother and son, the only thing he could do was to flee.
Out of Ning'er's room, breathing in the fresh air, Yue Shao'an was in a good mood, and walked a few steps in the backyard with a smile, the coolness of late autumn shrouded his body that was hot due to alcohol, which was very comfortable and enjoyable.
That night, he did not go to the other wives' rooms, but when the wind blew him, he felt sleepy, so he went back to sleep until dawn.
After getting up early the next morning, Yue Shao'an arranged to go to Dali, fortunately, Song Shicheng is not far from Dali, Yue Shao'an is not in a hurry, and it is very comfortable to arrive on the road.
Before leaving, Guo Shuangyi had to follow, which frightened him, this little girl and the little county lord were somehow always on the wrong path, and finally there was a reason to separate them, Yue Shaoan didn't want to find fault with himself anymore.
Besides, when he went to Dali to see Duan Yiming, Yue Shaoan was not only talking about marriage, but more importantly, he also wanted to see Duan Yiming's attitude, he still had a lot of expectations in the face of this cheap old man's brother.
If Song Shicheng can have the support of Dali, the benefits to Yue Shaoan will undoubtedly be huge.
When they saw them off, the women had different expressions, some staring, some weeping, and some smiling...... In the same way, all of them are beautiful women, and they are really envious of others......
On the other hand, the little county lord was beaming, and the smile on his small mouth never left.
Looking at the hint of envy in the eyes of the women looking at the little county lord, Yue Shao'an went over to hug and kiss them one by one, and secretly told everyone that their wedding would definitely not be later than the little county lord, which made the women look shy and feel much better.
Embarked on the road to Dali, the little county lord, the arrogant little girl, was also a lot more well-behaved, and along the way she was gentle with Yue Shao'an, talking about the customs of Dali, and the preferences of her uncle and father...... Wait a minute.
It seems that the little girl is in her heart, the status of her father and uncle is undoubtedly very important, and she doesn't want Yue Shaoan to leave them with a trace of dissatisfaction, however, Yue Shaoan doesn't care much, maybe in the past, she has to face the king of a country, especially her father-in-law, Yue Shaoan will carefully consider how to speak for a few days.
However, now he decides the life and death of tens of thousands of people with a wave of his hand, this kind of bearing has already transcended the teaching gentleman back then, even if it is the Emperor of Dali, if the old dog dares to show his teeth, it is still a dung fork......
The little lord with a happy face didn't know what he was thinking, if he knew that his satisfied husband was comparing himself to an old man picking up dung and his uncle to an old dog, could he be so happy, and the smiling little mouth should be pursed......
Yue Shao'an happily went on the road and married the lord of Dali, but in the city of Hangzhou, there was a major event that Yue Shao'an did not expect, which indirectly promoted the contradiction between Yue Shao'an and the emperor in the later period.
Liu Bonan's kid is in trouble again......
