Chapter 48: Hard to choose

After the Fengzhou Wubei School moved to the west of the city, all the school buildings were given to the Fengzhou Economics School, plus the teacher's residential area in the inner temple, the Economics Hall covers an area of nearly two squares, the area is three times that of the Defense Embassy, because the teachers are extremely weak, the study of the Economics Hall is very short, generally only half a year, the fourth phase of the fourth student graduation ceremony was held on the fourth day of the fourth month of April, Yang Hao is still the chief teacher of the school at the moment, he must be present in person on this occasion,

He got up early in the morning to prepare, after breakfast, Mu Tong took his speech, Zhang Lang and Li Wei led the guards, and the group swept out of the back gate of the defense embassy, from the back gate of the embassy to the ceremony site only more than a mile, the place passed by was remote, which was conducive to the security guards, before the battle with the Khitan, Yelu Tera knew Yang Hao's whereabouts well, which caused Yang Hao to be highly vigilant, and he concluded that there were Khitan spies hidden in Fengzhou,

After that, he deliberately revealed a fake battle plan, thus locking up the two Khitan spies hidden in the staff department, although the two were arrested after the war, but did not interrogate anything of value.

Later, the Khitans exchanged the two with 10,000 taels of gold and eight captured wounded soldiers of the Xining Army, the Khitan espionage network in Fengzhou was not broken, Yang Hao would always be in danger, the Tiande army was defeated, the Khitan people were defeated very unconvinced, Yang Hao looked at the great victory, for the Khitan people it was not unbearable, they still had 180,000 soldiers, occupying the vast grassland Gobi, they also had an overwhelming advantage over Fengzhou,

The fiasco of the Tiande army and the betrayal of the Tupin Bubu greatly weakened the power of the Yelu clan, and the balance of power of the Diera tribe changed significantly, this time it was the Yao Ran clan who had the upper hand, a few days ago, the Yao Ran clan and the Uighur Northeast Alliance Lord Qi'er You King formed a family, when the Qi'er You King married the princess of the Yao Ran clan, Zhangxin Khan sent the prime minister Chai Ge as a celebration envoy, when the Yelu clan was in power, the Khitan invaded a large area of grassland of the Qi'er King, after the marriage, the Yao Ran clan returned the pasture and cattle and sheep occupied by the Yelu clan to the Qi'er You King, This makes the alliance more reliable and stable.

Yang Hao had been paying close attention to the changes within the Khitan, and he concluded that with the marriage between the Yaoran clan and the king of Qi'er, the bilateral relations between the Khitan and the Uighurs would enter a situation very different from that when the Yelu clan was in power, and for Fengzhou, the alliance between the two families would inevitably bring more heavy pressure, and the 1,200 sets of heavy armor orders brought back by Guan Suo could temporarily ease the pressure on the Uighurs.

Passing through a narrow alley is the back door of the Economics Hall, there are six or seven guards in civilian clothes at the entrance of the alley, Yang Hao has four people guarding before and after, walking in front of Zhang Lang and Li Wei, followed by Zhang Xiao and Wu Zhang, when he was about to reach the entrance of the alley, suddenly a feather arrow flew towards him, Zhang Lang shouted urgently: "Protect the adults, wave the knife to block." "It's a pity that the waist injury in Datong River was not completely complete, and the action was a little worse than it was able to block this arrow.

Yang Hao fell to the ground with a muffled voice, Li Wei and Zhang Xiao hurriedly covered him with their bodies, and the guards at the end of the alley hurriedly launched a search and arrest operation, after about a stick of incense, the guards dragged over a linen guy wearing a hat, Yang Hao was sitting at the entrance of the alley to rest at the moment, and there were guards on the left and right.

The arrow did hit Yang Hao, but his official uniform was lined with soft armor and did not hurt the vital point, Zhang Lang was a little annoyed and angry, dragging a wounded leg, rushed forward to grab the little guy and was about to whip, but he let it go, he whispered twice in Yang Hao's ear, Yang Hao raised his head and glanced at the little guy: This is clearly a handsome woman dressed as a man,

Yang Hao rushed to the Economics Hall on time to attend the graduation ceremony, and after the speech, he awarded gold commemorative medals to twelve outstanding students including Lu Xiaofeng.

At the end of the graduation ceremony, Yang Hao announced his resignation from the position of chief teacher of the school, the position of chief teacher was temporarily concurrently held by Long Yun, and Long Wu and Long Xing were promoted to deputy chief teachers.

The inside and outside of the study are heavily guarded, and the little Mai who was captured is leisurely watching some of the antiques collected by Yang Hao at the moment, most of these antiques were given by Meng Yao, and they are all very valuable.

Yang Hao stood at the door and coughed softly,

"Lord Yang, these things of yours are no worse than those in the palace, how much effort has taken to collect them." She was holding a vase in her hand, Yang Hao didn't know how to appreciate it, but knew its value: three hundred taels,

"Jin Taoyin, Miss Jin, Lord Jin, what do you mean by doing this, you also assassinated me once a year ago."

Jin Taoyin grinned, flicked his finger on the vase, and put it to his ear to listen to Qingyue's voice: "A small misunderstanding, Lord Yang, do you still take it to heart." ”

Yang Hao snorted coldly: "Misunderstanding, if I wasn't wearing soft armor, I'm afraid that I would be on the street at this moment." ”

Jin Taoyin walked lightly to Yang Hao and sat down, staring at him with hooked eyes: "This is not good, as a general of the border pass, how can you not dress neatly when you go out, you need to know that 'going out is like seeing an enemy'." "The last time I met her was when Yang Kai was killed, that time Jin Taoyin was kidnapped by Lin Weilu at the Feng'an Chengnan Station, and on the way back to Chang'an, she suffered a lot, and she also suffered a lot, these Yang Hao also heard a little afterwards, and always felt a trace of guilt,

He didn't want to dwell on the assassination of himself anymore,

"What advice do you have for coming to Feng'an?" Yang Hao softened his tone and asked,

"The princess is about to go to Lingwu to get married, do you know?"

Yang Hao was secretly taken aback, Li Qing and Wang Chongwen's marriage dragged on and on, originally thought that it had been dragged into a dead end, but he didn't expect that there would be a day when the peaks and loops would turn.

"This time, how could His Highness be willing."

Jin Taoyin snorted coldly, Qianqianyu fiddled with the tea bowl with her fingers, and said: "What if you refuse, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother have already made an order, how can she deal with it alone." ”

"What do you need me to do?" Jin Taoyin suddenly appeared in Feng'an, and made such a play, naturally he didn't come to invite himself to drink the wine, Yang Hao felt that it might be more appropriate for him to take the initiative to ask,

"You managed to get the princess out of Chang'an." Jin Taoyin said calmly, staring at Yang Hao with a pair of wonderful eyes, somewhat unexpectedly, Yang Hao did not show a surprised and uneasy expression, but asked seriously:

"Is this what the princess herself meant?"

Jin Taoyin didn't answer, she took out a letter and handed it to Yang Hao, this is an unsigned whistleblower letter, someone told Li Qing that Yang Kai was a secret agent in the Judgment Hall before his death, and the letter implied that Yang Kai was killed by the Assassin Horse Camp, after reading this letter Yang Hao fell into deep thought, he paced in the study, circle after circle, and finally stopped in front of Jin Taoyin: "Is there any basis for saying that Yang Kai is a spy in the Judgment Hall." ”

"You don't need any basis, as long as the princess believes it." Jin Taoyin sneered, "You are the general of the Thorn Horse Battalion, there are 10,000 reasons to kill him, the princess deduces that you are the culprit behind the killing of Yang Kai, and it is useless for outsiders to persuade her, and now you can only eliminate this misunderstanding by rescuing the princess." ”

Yang Hao was very unimpressed by Jin Taoyin's rhetoric, but he endured this breath and patiently asked Jin Taoyin: "I have been away from Chang'an for too long, I am not familiar with the things over there, have you made a plan?" ”

Jin Taoyin shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Do you really think that the princess's flower clothes can do anything, let me tell you, the only thing they can do is bad things, and now everything depends on you." After a pause, he said: "This is a major matter of exterminating the Nine Clans, if you don't want to help, the princess won't blame you." ”

Yang Hao said: "You stay first, let me think about it." ”

Jin Taoyin stretched out a finger: "One day, you can only think about one day, tomorrow at noon, if you don't come to me, I will refuse you." ”

Yang Hao nodded silently,

……

Guan Suo heard that Yang Hao was going to help Li Qing escape from marriage, and grinned bitterly: "I really don't know what you have to do with her, Your Majesty has made an order, and the Queen Mother has also issued an order, isn't it because you are doing this to isolate yourself from the world, anyway, she didn't say anything to death, so she simply pretended to be deaf and dumb." Yang Hao was quite disappointed when he heard this, and sighed: "Actually, I helped her ......"

Guan Suo excitedly interrupted Yang Hao's words:

"Even if the princess marries Wang Chongwen, Wang Chongwen may not be desperate for Qiu Shiliang, even if Wang Chongwen is willing to work hard for Qiu Shiliang, so what, Lingwu is not as strong as Hedong, there is a strong enemy of Tubo in the west, if he moves, he will definitely lose, the princess grew up in the deep palace since she was a child, and she has long been spoiled, you look at what Jin Taoyin said, what is the truth, the slave is like this, how good can the master be, you really miss the old love and want to help her, then go to the book, Your Majesty, Chen Ming is powerful, take 10,000 steps back and say, Even if Wang Chongwen is not a good thing and abuses her everywhere, if you go to save her at that time, you can only say it clearly in terms of justice, in short, I think it is very inappropriate to get involved at this moment. ”

Guan Suo was so excited that his face turned red, and after a pause, he sighed again and said, "You come to get an idea, if you really want to help her, I will do my best." Yang Hao waved his hand indifferently and said, "Go ahead, let me think about it." ”

Guan Suo stood up and went out, and happened to bump into Zhang Lang, so he asked, "Where is that woman now?" Zhang Lang knew that he was asking Jin Taoyin, so he said mysteriously: "We placed her in the State Guest House, she changed into a set of clothes and went out, and now she lives in a small inn in the back street, and our people have already infiltrated the inn to protect her." ”

Guan Suo nodded and said: "Tomorrow's inauguration ceremony of the military ordnance factory, Lao Yu really wants to let the adults go over to see, hey, you also know, isn't it rumored that Lao Yu is corrupt recently, and there are rumors that the adults no longer trust him, so you must remind the adults to go tomorrow, the old fish people are good, let the inspectors of the gang of boys are almost useless, and they can't bear it." ”

Zhang Lang said with emotion: "As soon as Secretary Lu left, the Supervision Department became the whole department, and someone came to check the medical expenses for my treatment yesterday, saying that I used an extra one, two or eight dollars...... What do you say I'm working so hard for? Guan Suo covered his mouth and coughed, Zhang Lang knew that he was speechless, and he was busy smiling and covering up the past, the Supervision Department has been transformed by Yang Hao into a disciplinary picket and anti-corruption and bribery agency, and only Yang Hao is responsible for one person, and the authority has been expanded several times, and the impact on Fengzhou officials is very strong.

Zhang Lang finally said: "Don't worry, I will definitely remind you." ”

The new ordnance factory of the Ordnance Division was built in the town of Slender Magang 38 miles northwest of Feng'an, covering an area of nearly 2,000 acres, the southwest corner of the factory is the staff residential area, there is a small lake shaped like a human eye, the shore of the lake is planted with weeping willows, and many flowers and plants are planted, the scenery is quite good, Yang Hao participated in the inauguration ceremony, accompanied by Yu Zhong and other dry people along the lake to see the willows, Yang Hao asked Yu Chong: "Brother Yin's clothes and armor have eyebrows." Yu Zhong replied: "I have consulted many drawings and have made a few samples, and I am going to go back and let them try them out, and if they are satisfied, they will mass produce." Yang Hao nodded with satisfaction, and advised: "Good brother who has suffered together, this is the only thing that can help him, by the way, it is best to teach them the technology, and we will have to transport it to him in the future." Yu Zhong smiled and said: "My lord is far-sighted, and his subordinates will definitely do it." ”

It was almost noon, Yu Zhong put refreshments in a pavilion on the shore, and invited Yang Hao to take a rest, Yang Hao did not refuse, and was drinking tea and snacks, suddenly, someone on the other side of the lake jumped into the water, and everyone exclaimed: "Someone is looking for a short time." Yang Hao waved his hand, Zhang Xiao and Wu Zhang rushed into the water to save people, and dragged up a ** girl with the strength of everyone, and there was a Liu steward in the Ordnance Department who knew her, and told Yang Hao that this woman's name was Zhu Lan, who was a student in the first phase of the Economics Hall, and was assigned to the Ordnance Factory as an accountant.

After Zhu Lan woke up, she complained about Wu Zhang, who saved her: "Why do you want to save me, just let me die." Wu Zhangzheng was shivering, and when he heard this, he immediately became anxious, and shouted: "Whoever wants to save you, it's the adults who pity you." Zhu Lan sobbed: "It's boring for people to live, it's better to die, why aren't adults beautiful." ”

Yang Hao asked Steward Liu: "Why is this the case at a young age?" Steward Liu replied: "She is an orphan, she grew up in her uncle's house since she was a child, and her cousin was a childhood sweetheart, her sixteen-year-old uncle wanted to marry her, she didn't want to run away from home and was admitted to the economics hall, a month ago her cousin was ordered by her parents to marry another daughter's wife, she was like losing three souls and six souls, wandering around all day, I thought that the young man's heart, it would be fine in a few days, who knows...... She, she couldn't even think of committing suicide by throwing herself into the lake......"

Ling Tong sighed on the side: "When a weak woman encounters such a thing, what can she do except throw herself into the lake, she has a good life." ”

Li Tong patted Wu Zhang, and said to Yang Hao with a smile: "He saved the person, I think he will hand the person over to Wu Zhang, if there is any more mistakes, he is the only one who asks." Wu Zhangteng's face turned red, and he waved his hands and said: "This, how can this be done, I am ordered to save people......" Seeing his panicked appearance, everyone laughed unconsciously,

Yang Hao said with a smile: "What General Li said is reasonable, as the saying goes, 'Save people to the end, send Buddha to the West Heaven', you saved people, you are responsible for her to the end." Speaking of this, Yang Hao suddenly lowered his head, and immediately he looked at the sky again, called Zhang Xiao to his side, and whispered: "Quickly invite Miss Jin to meet in the inner study." ”
