In the next ten days, the Huangbang platform set up in front of the square in front of the palace and the four gates of the capital was extremely busy, and the news kept coming out of the court, and the list was announced to the world, and the first place was naturally announced that the prince Zheng Tong would succeed to the throne, and the six members of the dynasty, such as the king of Zhenxi and the prime minister of Zuo, were auxiliary ministers to assist the young emperor in charge of Nanli.

Then it is to announce the many crimes of King Jing's rebellion, the severe punishment of the officials involved, the promotion and filling of vacancies in new officials, the rotation of the generals of the Outer Guard Yamen Army, etc., and the addition of rewarding the monks who have made meritorious contributions to the Dharma protectors, such as Wuyu, Gushi, and Wuxian, respectively, and sealing a resounding title of mage.

These are all logical things, and there is nothing strange about them, but the really 'interesting' ones are two other pieces of news:

First, the prince's enthronement ceremony is scheduled to be two months later, which happens to be the celebration of Yanguo Jingtai's '39'...... Anyone can feel that this is a very 'anti-Taiwan drama', and the other decree is more direct: expel all Yan people in Nanli, and recall all Nanli people in Yanli at the same time. Song Yang and Cheng He also looked at the list from the city gate, and when they saw this, they both laughed at the same time.

Ren Churong's eyes were shining: "What are you laughing at?" ”

Song Yang squinted her eyes like her: "Knowingly asked." ”

Ren Churong was rarely unreasonable, and smiled: "You don't care if I know it, I just want to ask." As she spoke, she seemed to be 'looking in the mirror', and she also squinted at Song Yang, and the crescent moon was crooked.

Song Yang was not hypocritical, and stretched out his hand to point to the last announcement on the imperial list: "This, it's very bad." ”

During the blessing ceremony, King Jing 'confessed' on the spot, and Yan Guo was behind the rebellion. Of course, Yan Guo will not admit this, and there is no place in the world to fight this lawsuit, but that night, tens of millions of people in Phoenix City inside and outside the dojo witnessed together, no matter whether Yan Guo denied the account, the Nanli Imperial Court had to show an attitude... dissatisfaction with Yan Guo, otherwise how can the people be appeased.

And what really made Song Yang and the two laugh was that the last notice, at first glance, seemed nothing, but after careful consideration, it could be found that it was very 'bad'.

"Nanli expelled the Yan people, and the Yan country will not be indifferent, and most of them will do the same, informing the whole country to expel the people of Nanli." Saying that, Song Yang laughed again: "But what the emperor said clearly is that the imperial court has recalled all the people of Nanli in Yan, and no matter how much Dayan drives people away, our Nanli people will also return in response to the recruitment......"

He spoke in a loud voice, and there were many people around him who were watching the list, and they all laughed when they heard it.

Cheng He smiled especially happily, she liked to see him in the limelight.

The day was as relaxed as the previous days, wandering around the city, and at dusk they were in the southern city, and they deliberately crossed most of the capital division to the north city to eat the western mandarin fish wontons, until it was dark and the two returned to Hongbo Mansion satisfied.

As soon as he entered the door, Hong Bowei greeted him and said to the two: "Master Hou, Third Miss, Lord Wang, please come over." ”

Cheng He was overjoyed: "Father has returned home?" As he spoke, he pulled Song Yang's sleeve, and the two of them quickened their pace to see the prince. Since entering Beijing, the king of Zhenxi has not opened the palace, and he only returned to his house today, and it is estimated that the political affairs have come to an end...... King Zhenxi's eyes were bloodshot, obviously not resting enough, but the old man's skills were solid, and his spirit was not bad, and when he saw Ren Churong, he first showed a relieved smile: "The complexion is much better." Then he waved his hand and said to Song Yang: "Excuse me, sit down and speak." ”

Ren Churong put the credit on Song Yang and responded to his father: "Song Yang passed on my set of methods for cultivating qi, which is not bad, I will copy a copy to you tomorrow." ”

King Zhenxi waved his hand and smiled: "I don't need to, you can keep it for yourself." ”

Listening to the father and daughter chatting, Song Yang's heart suddenly moved, looking at the appearance of the prince, he must be 'old and strong', and he should still be able to use that set of double cultivation methods...... It's the son-in-law who teaches the father-in-law to double cultivate the method, which seems to be a bit of a bastard when I think about it.

The prince's father and daughter didn't pay attention to Song Yang's strange expression, and talked and laughed for a while, and the king of Zhenxi turned his eyes to look at his son-in-law, without any foreshadowing and politeness, and asked directly: "Did you see the announcement of the emperor's list?" What do you think? ”

Domestic affairs are in charge of the auxiliary minister, and the prince can't come to ask for his opinion, Song Yang understood that the king of Zhenxi's question was referring to the 'measures' against Dayan, and immediately replied: "On the surface, it is enough to do this." ”

With Nanli's national strength, of course, he can't really meet with Dayan's sword soldiers, and he needs to grasp a sense of proportion here, not only not to really annoy Dayan, but also to give an explanation to the people in China.

"On the surface?" The prince suddenly grasped the key point, and asked, "What about the reality?" ”

This time, the prince didn't wait for Song Yang to answer and went straight to himself, and the wording was not exquisite: "My family's emperor was messed up by them, the imperial court was dangerously subverted, Nanli almost lost the country, I suffered such a big loss, I don't want to find a way to get it back, I can't sleep." ”

"This is not the first time, the flood disaster more than two years ago, this king still remembers it clearly...... That time, everyone lost both, Nanli didn't suffer too much, but in the end, they did evil in the front, fortunately, God has eyes, and in the autumn he enjoyed a fire in Jingtai, which scorched his Yanhuang Palace. As he spoke, King Zhenxi's gaze was firmly fixed on Song Yang's face.

Song Yang couldn't hear the meaning of the prince's words, and nodded happily: "I heard that the Yan Palace has been rebuilt in two years, and now it has some scale." ”

King Zhenxi finally showed a good color to Song Yang, nodded and laughed. Song Yang continued to laugh and said: "In more than two months, Jingtai will ascend the throne for 39 months, and Yanjing will celebrate the whole country. ”

The old prince's smile was even bigger, but at this time, Ren Churong on the side suddenly spoke, and his tone was resolute: "No!" ”

King Zhenxi's face was full of helplessness.

Song Yang was also quite surprised, wanted to laugh, held back, turned his head to look at Ren Churong, and glanced at her, signaling her not to rebel against the old man's intentions. In fact, Song Yang wanted to put this fire himself, since the first product was beaten, Jingtai and Yanding were too comfortable, and Chang Chunhou was already impatient.

Ren Churong was unmoved: "It's not appropriate to choose 'Sanjiu', at that time, the garrison in the city can be imagined, it was really a fire, and it was difficult for our people to retreat, if you set fire," Looking at the appearance of his father and Song Yang, Cheng He sighed and gave in slightly: "It's not impossible to set fire, but it is necessary to change it, either in advance, or in the wrong delay." ”

What the county lord said made sense, the 'Sanjiu' arson was indeed sensational enough, but in comparison, it was much more difficult to escape. The prince nodded, and Song Yang also agreed: "Then try to advance, anyway, it will take a few days for the news of the fire in Yan Palace to reach Phoenix City, and when the little emperor ascended the throne, the news came, and Nanli was even more happy... Tomorrow I will take the Fire Dao people to Dayan. ”

Cheng He was still a little hesitant, and frowned slightly: "I remember you said that you were just the one who came up with the idea last time you set fire, and it was others who really went to do things and lit the fire, this time... You don't have to go there yourself, do you? ”

Anyway, Ren Churong just didn't want Song Yang to take risks.

Song Yang shook his head and was elated: "Don't light the fire, but I have to watch the fire burn, or it won't smell." After speaking, he smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, unlike Yipin, this time I only went to set fires and didn't do anything else, there is no danger at all." ”

In front of his father, Ren Churong didn't say much, and if Song Yang only set fire to this trip, the risk would not be too high to avoid the big words of 'Sanjiu', so he nodded reluctantly, and asked again: "Then this fire... Will it burn Dayan in a hurry? ”

In this regard, the king of Zhenxi was confident: "Urgent, will definitely be anxious, but if you grasp a key well, there will be nothing." Speaking of this, the prince stopped talking and glanced up at his son-in-law.

Song Yang understood, and said: "If you don't leave a trace, if you don't tell the truth, Dayan won't come to us to fight hard." ”

The consequences of arson still have to come down to the situation of the five countries of Middle-earth, and the whole body will be affected, Yan Guo dares to bully Nanli and dare to subvert secretly, but it will not really attack on a large scale, so it will be cheaper for the north wolf and the west jackal.

If this fire is put off without leaving a handle, even if the Yan court guesses that it is Nan Li's doing, most of them will still endure it for the sake of the overall situation; But if there are traces left, and the Yan people learn that 'Nanli set fire to my palace', the Yan court will be forced to a dead end, and it will have to fight Nanli, and if you don't fight, you won't be able to explain to the people.

Song Yang understood what King Zhenxi meant, he couldn't force Dayan to a dead end, just give it a dumb loss.

The prince breathed a long sigh of relief, nodded to Song Yang, and when he spoke again, he brought the topic back to the beginning: "The edict has been issued, and soon the state capitals under the jurisdiction of Nanli will begin to expel the Yan people." This attitude must be had, but doing so is not self-destructive to Nanli... It should be known that most of the people who are going to be driven away are merchants from Yan Kingdom. ”

In recent decades, Nanli and Dayan have traded frequently, and the scale of transactions has become larger and larger.

Song Yang began to blink, Yu Guang looked at Ren Churong, and found that the county lord's eyes blinked more often than himself, and the king of Zhenxi slowed down his speech, and his tone was definitely nonchalant: "I heard that you have found a way to get money in the fiefdom... This money is very easy to come by. ”

Ren Churong couldn't help it, and asked in a low voice, "Who do you always listen to?" ”

The old man looked at his daughter: "Anyway, it's not my daughter who said it, the girl is outgoing, and she can't count on it... Both. ”

Ren Churong was speechless.

When Lord Hu sent grapes to Fengyi, Ren Churong borrowed a huge amount from his father, and only said that he could pay it back, but did not mention the treasure map of Emperor Hong of the previous dynasty. However, it is not surprising that the king of Zhenxi knows about this, there are not only the two sisters Xiaofu and Chu Rong in the feudal city, but also many red wave guards, among which there is naturally the eyeliner of the prince.

When the old man spoke, Song Yang must have given face, and immediately responded: "This money is earned with friends, and it has been said that it will be opened three or three times, and I can't move others, and half of my own share will be given to you." ”

"Half of it, although it falls into less than 20% of the total, it is also a lot of money... Hehe, that's good. "The king of Zhenxi twisted his beard in his hand, and he was noncommittal.

Ren Churong immediately wanted to be anxious, gritted her teeth and gritted her teeth, and finally swallowed the sentence 'no' back into her stomach, not that she didn't think about her mother's family, but she knew that Hongbo Mansion was not short of money at all, and asked tentatively: "What happened to the family, do you need money?" ”

King Zhenxi shook his head and said, "It's okay at home." ”

Cheng He first breathed a sigh of relief, and then put his tone more tactfully: "You know, Yanziping is so poor now... If it weren't for the last resort, I wouldn't have discussed that matter with you a while ago. As for the 'gold' born in the soil, it can't fall into the hands for the time being, it's a far water ......."

'That incident' refers to the huge amount of money lent to the prince, which was difficult to raise even in the Hongbo Mansion for a while, and wanted to temporarily embezzle the military expenses of the Western Front.

The prince smiled suddenly: "Don't worry, I know that Fengyi has no money now, and I don't plan to squeeze you immediately, the things that were said before will not change, but now I just want to negotiate a deal with you." ”

Ren Churong's spirits were greatly lifted, and Song Yang was still pretending to be righteous: "What do you always say, what do you buy and sell." ”

The prince didn't pick up Song Yang's words, but just looked at his daughter and said, "You opened an iron mine and an arsenal in Fengyi, not just to make money. ”

is the same as 'gold in the soil', Ren Churong's little abacus can't be hidden from the prince after all, and the county lord of Chenghe smiled: "Father's eyes are like torches, and he can see through everything at a glance." ”

The king of Zhenxi ignored Song Yang's overtures, but accepted all his daughter's stammers, showed a kind smile, and continued: "After Taizu opened the country, he selected a place in the west, north, and central China, and sealed three large warehouses, in which a large number of weapons were hidden in case of emergency. ”

"Over the years, both the process of iron forging and the means of stockpiling have been much better than when the country was founded, but the seven-year limit has not been changed because it is an edict written by Taizu himself, and a few of our old guys have just discussed it a few days ago and are ready to extend the ......."

"Far from it. Now there is another batch of weapons to the limit, except for armor, most of them are some heavy slashing sledgehammers and other force soldiers, as far as I know, all of them are good guys, and they have been old for seven years, but they are no different from new weapons. I think it's a pity to destroy it like this, but the new ones have been completed and shipped, and the old ones are stored in excess of them, so it's better to use them. ”

Having said this, Ren Churong was already overjoyed and wanted to thank him.

King Zhenxi waved his hand: "Don't be busy thanking you first, listen to me." It's not for nothing, it's something you have to spend money on, and it's good at a good price, and it's not more expensive than what you make yourself. As he spoke, he took out a list with quotations from his arms and handed it to Ren Churong.

Ren Churong's voice was as light as a mosquito, but he could ensure that his father could hear it clearly: "Anyway, it's going to be ruined, it's cheap for nothing......"

"It's really cheap for nothing," King Zhenxi disagreed: "But it's cheap in Nanli, I don't want you to take it, and the money to buy weapons has nothing to do with Hongbo Mansion, it has to be handed over to the treasury." Besides, you didn't lose anything in this deal. ”

There are no major wars in the country, and although the former king of Zhenxi has a high position, he has no right to fight the idea of the big treasury, but now that he is an auxiliary minister, he can call the shots in this matter.

Ren Churong began to mumble again, this is the first time Song Yang has seen her coquettish, and she feels fresh and funny, the prince is obviously commonplace, and he doesn't eat this set at all, so he gets straight to the point: "How about it, do you buy it, or don't you want it?" ”

Ren Churong replied crisply: "I bought it!" After speaking, he lifted a chair and moved closer to his father, smiled, and changed his honorific title to "father": "Daddy, can it be cheaper?" ”

The king of Zhenxi was unmoved, and shook his head steadily.

Ren Churong sighed secretly in her heart, but unfortunately Xiao Fu was not there, if she went out and played a scoundrel, she would definitely be able to draw a new price...... The only benefit of this transaction for the fiefdom is the 'turnover', but this 'turnover' is what the fiefdom needs most. Not long after the construction of 'Nanwei', all the craftsmen in front of them were busy with the production of weapons for the new army on the Western Front. What's more, Ren Churong has already read the list, and the price is about the same as the cost of his own farm, so why bother to make it himself.

The prince's move, reselling weapons in the front, and equipping private troops in the back, sounds like a treason... But in the former, the weapons to be destroyed were exchanged for silver to confiscate the treasury, needless to say; And the private army equipped was his son-in-law's team, and the king of Zhenxi was not sure to control Song Yang, but he could be sure that Song Yang did not have the heart of treason. More importantly, the hatred between Nanli and Dayan deepened and the hostility intensified, Song Yang regarded Jingtai and Yanding as mortal enemies, equipped his private army, and waited for Nanli to have an extra army against Dayan.

In the matter of two benefits, the feudal town took some small advantages, and Nanli really got a big benefit.

As for the money for buying weapons, the prince just made it clear that 'everything that he said before will be as usual', and the money he promised to lend to his daughter will be delivered as scheduled, and the money will be used to pay the bills, one yard to one yard, and the money will be returned to the prince when the wealth of the tomb robbery comes in.

The intention is reached, all that remains is to confirm the details, Ren Churong carefully put away the list, and said to the prince: "The specific quantity, I can't decide now, go back to Fengyi to find someone to discuss and then reply to you." ”

The number of weapons given by the prince is enough to equip all the barbarians and the yakshas, and the barbarians and stone guys are easy to say, but Hong Jun has reported their own equipment catalogue to the envoy, Ren Churong does not understand military affairs, and he doesn't know how many weapons in the two lists can be 'exchanged', and he can only confirm after going back and asking Xiao Blacksmith.

King Zhenxi nodded, said 'as soon as possible', followed the conversation, and said to Song Yang: "Let's talk about business here first, and then let's talk about taxes... Not now, three years from now; I don't want half of your thirty percent, but as long as you earn ten percent of the money, you still pay it to the treasury. ”

When Feng Long gave the title of 'Marquis of Changchun', it was clear that not only did he not have to say it, but on the contrary, all the taxes in the fiefdom belonged to Marquis Changchun, and now the king of Zhenxi did not mention this stubble at all, and it was obvious that he was using the big to suppress the small and looking for Song Yang to make money.

Ren Churong couldn't look at it again, but before she could speak, Song Yang agreed with a smile. Three years later, Fengyi has already been on the right track, not to mention Lao Gu's gold nest, just the 'treasure map', which was prepared by Dahong Taizu for the 'restoration of the country', how rich the wealth is, in the future, Song Yang will be a rich man who has too much money to spend, and it is nothing to donate some to the old man to make face.

Song Yang was happy, the old man was also very happy, and he really praised a few words, this is the first time in his life, Song Yang is still calm, and Ren Churong has long been overjoyed...... Early the next morning, Song Yang and Huo Lao Dao, who were disguised by the good hands of Hongbo Mansion, took the road to Dayan, and when they said goodbye, Song Yang had something to do and told Chu Rong: "That set of methods for cultivating qi and cultivating oneself is not allowed to be put down, and it must be practiced every day." ”

Ren Churong agreed seriously, but he didn't give Song Yang much advice, just said: "You go first, I'll watch." ”

Until Song Yang's figure disappeared for a long time, Ren Churong was still looking in the direction he left.
