In a game of chess, if you only see three or two moves in front of you, then you don't need to play this chess.

Although Yang Yi didn't know much about the current Western Regions, he knew that when Yelu Dashi was forced to flee westward in history, with an army of less than 20,000 people, he established a huge Western Liao Empire in the Western Regions and even in the Hezhong region.

This at least shows that the various regimes in the Western Regions have gradually entered a period of decline, and for the Central Plains Dynasty, this is an excellent time to expand its power to the west.

As long as nothing happens, the New Party's long-term control of the Great Song Dynasty is a foregone conclusion. Compared with the conservative old party, the new party has a pioneering character; Since the opening of the Xihe River in the period of Wang Anshi, the New Party has hardly given up its outward expansion during its reign, and has been working hard to expand the living space of the Great Song Dynasty.

In the first year of Shaosheng, there were 19,129,211 households and 42,566,243 people in the official records of the Great Song Dynasty.

With the implementation of the Exemption Law, Unified Taxation, and a series of new improved laws, the people's power of the Great Song Dynasty was greatly released, and the people no longer had to bear heavy labor, and the taxes were much lighter.

This not only greatly promoted the development of people's livelihood in the Great Song Dynasty, but also promoted the rapid growth of the population of the Great Song Dynasty, and by the latest recorded figures this year, the entire Great Song Dynasty has increased to 20,152,140 households, 46,914,992 people.

In just two years, more than 4 million people have been added. This is only an official record, and considering the hidden part, the number of population increases in the Great Song should be much higher than the official statistics.

According to this rate of development, the living space of the Great Song Dynasty will inevitably be greatly challenged, the population has increased, the land has not increased, there are more and more landless people, and the industrial and commercial industry can not digest so many unemployed people, so they can only become displaced people, forming wave after wave of peasant uprisings in the Great Song Dynasty.

What's more, the development of the Western Regions, just a Silk Road, can bring endless financial resources to the Great Song Dynasty. Compared with other dynasties, the Great Song Dynasty was one of the most commercially developed dynasties, and it is difficult to imagine what kind of opportunities it would bring to the Great Song Dynasty if it could open up the Silk Road.

After pondering for a while, Yang Yi said to Li Lan: "You settle down in Huanzhou first, I will form a caravan to go to the Western Regions as soon as possible, if you are not at ease, you can go together then." ”

Li Lan asked in surprise, "Really?" Is it true? Are you really willing to send someone to find my lady? ”

"Go ahead! Tell the people in your sect, let them settle down, if I hear that anyone is involved in the local rebellion, don't blame me for not looking at Xiang Xian's feelings, you teach the middle of the matter, and when Xiang Xian comes back, I will slowly try it for you! ”

"Thank you, sir! Kindness, we will never forget. ”

"Go ahead!"

Due to Li Lan's identity, Yang Yi didn't want to keep her in the back office. After she withdrew, Yang Yi immediately wrote a letter to Empress Liu and Han Bi'er, and sent them to Tokyo urgently.

When Yang Yi came out of the detention room, he was still thinking about his thoughts.

"Bluff!"

Suddenly, there was a scream, which really startled him.

Qing Niang got her wish and startled him, and couldn't help but giggle, Yang Yi was "furious", grabbed her and "snapped" twice on the little buttocks.

"Don't think that only ghosts can scare people to death, do you know that even fairies can scare people to death!"

"Hee-hee...... Ha ha...... Brother Yang has always been so bold, and people have never been able to scare you, hehe...... This time...... Hehehe......"

Yang Yi saw that she was out of breath laughing, her eyes were full of tears, and she felt happy in her heart, so she took her hand and walked to the back office.

As she walked, Qing Niang stopped smiling, leaned beside him and pouted and asked, "Brother Yang, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, why did you come back?" People have been waiting for you for a long, long time! ”

Qing Niang used two "long times" in a row, which made Yang Yi feel a little guilty, stroked her little head and said: "This time it's Brother Yang who is wrong, next time it will definitely not be like this, Qing Niang will forgive Brother Yang once!" ”

Qing Niang was a little embarrassed, and said with a sweet smile: "Actually, people are just talking nonsense, Brother Yang is tired of running around for the people to go home early, and Qing Niang is blamed for being ignorant, by the way, Brother Yang, you sit, I will help you pinch your muscles and bones to relieve your fatigue." ”

Yang Yi was pressed into the Taishi chair by her, and before she could run back, Yang Yi took her into his arms and smiled dotingly: "Big brother is not tired, so you don't have to work to drive Yi'an Jushi, let's say, what do you want today?" Where you want to play, Big Brother will fulfill your wishes. ”

"Really?" Qing Niang jumped up suddenly, her eyes as bright as stars flickered twice, and she asked cautiously, "Does Brother Yang really fulfill all wishes?" ”

Yang Yi looked at her petty appearance and laughed: "Say, what do you want to do?" I promised you, of course, Brother Yang can do it. ”

"Brother Yang, you will definitely be able to do it!" Qing Niang no longer hesitated, took his hand and begged: "People want to take that kind of ...... Yikes! It's the kind of glider that flies in the sky once, Brother Yang, you promised everyone everything you said, you don't want to play tricks this time! ”

Qing Niang looked at him pitifully, her mouth pouted again, she had begged Yang Yi several times before, Yang Yi refused her on the grounds of insecurity, whether she could realize this wish this time, she didn't know the bottom of her heart.

"Brother Yang, you don't mean what you say, you can agree quickly! Say yes! ”

"Hahaha...... Good! Today, Brother Yang will take you to fly back and go! ”

"Oh......" Qing Niang suddenly cheered, without the usual graceful and poetic tranquility, she jumped up, grabbed his neck and dangled around, like a happy little yellow bird.

Yang Yi simply threw her light body over her shoulders again, and walked out with a smile. Summoning Ma Hanqing and those guards to bring a few gliders.

One of them has increased a lot, this is Yang Yi specially prepared to take Qing Niang to glide, Qing Niang has already begged him several times, Yang Yi understands, not to mention this era, even in the future generations, flying in the sky is extremely attractive for ordinary people.

What's more, as long as it is Qingniang's wish, he will try his best to meet it, and he was not ready before, so he had to refuse her.

After a team of people and horses left the city, they galloped towards the mountains to the west, and before they arrived at the location, Qing Niang was so excited that she didn't know where to put her hands and feet, and she said some unnutritious words in her mouth, Yang Yi felt even more funny.

When she arrived at the bottom of the mountain, Yang Yi put her on her back and went up the mountain with everyone.

Ma Hanqing and the others held the folded glider, and their faces were full of excitement, it seems that flying is not only attractive to Qing Niang.

At the top of the mountain, the autumn wind is tight, the geese fly south, the sky is high and vast, this kind of weather is suitable for playing gliding.

After the glider was assembled, Yang Yi carefully checked it twice, and after confirming that there was no problem, he tied Qing Niang to himself with a strip of cloth.

"Qing Niang, you close your eyes first, and then open them when I tell you to open them, understand?"

"Mmmm, everyone listens to Brother Yang!" Qing Niang was so obedient that she couldn't say anything, and it seemed that she had agreed to everything she said at this time.

However, when Yang Yi jumped out of the cliff with her, the girl suddenly let out an exclamation, feeling that this girl was curious, and couldn't help but open her eyes, fortunately, Yang Yi had been specially trained to operate a glider in her previous life, and she was very skilled.

"Qingniang, don't be afraid, Brother Yang said that the heavens and the earth will take you with you, have you forgotten? Look, it's okay, let's fly! ”

Under Yang Yi's comfort, the girl quickly quieted down, of course, mainly lying on Yang Yi's wide back, which was very reassuring.

Yang Yi constantly moved the center of gravity of his body, pulled the joystick back, and kept accelerating, or pushing the joystick to the right to turn left, or pushing the joystick to turn right, drawing a graceful arc in the sky.

At this time, Qing Niang completely forgot her fear, cheered loudly and laughed loudly, like a thrush flying into the sky...... The clear sky is full of white clouds, which are the clouds of angels; The autumn wind swept by, howling like a song. Yang Yi took Qingniang to fly over the mountains, over the rivers, over the fields, and over the villages...... Looking down, the mountains are long, the trees are green and yellow, mottled and scattered, like a colorful giant carpet draped on the earth, beautiful; The Baima River flowing from the south is a jade belt in the mountains, reflecting a little golden light, there are many people on the city wall of Huanzhou, looking like ants, straight streets, gray tile ridges...... "Brother Yang, look at it, that's our house, and!" And also! Hee-hee...... Ha ha...... I see Xiaobai screaming! ”

"What's our family, that's called Yi'anju, hahaha!"

"Alright! All right! Brother Yang fly to the Salesian Bureau, fly quickly! Hee-hee......"

Qing Niang hugged Yang Yi's neck, very excited, at this time Ma Hanqing and they also chased after each other, and the ten gliders were like a row of geese, rowing over Huanzhou City.

Countless people poured into the streets, pointing and pointing, but no one was scared, after all, although the people of Mengyun Valley had not seen the battle, who had not heard of it?

"Qing Niang, why did we forget to bring some gifts, how fun it is to give them to the people as gifts from the gods at this time!"

"I see, Brother Yang Yi, are you used to throwing bombs, or don't you want it! Hee-hee...... Fly! Fly! ”

Not only Qing Niang was excited, but even Ma Hanqing was shouting, like a group of flying wolves in the sky!

Facing the wind, everyone cheered from time to time to speed up the whirlwind, flew over Huanzhou City, flew to the green and blue sky, and finally turned into a few floating clouds on the horizon...... This day was very happy, and Qing Niang's voice was almost hoarse! It has been a few years since Yang Yi saw her so forgetful, and her face was full of beautiful glow.

When she returned home, she couldn't suppress her excitement, like a little yellow bird that only haunted people, turning around in front of and behind Yang Yi, chattering non-stop.

Thirteen Niang and they had already come back first, and when Ming'er saw the two of them walking into the house with a smile, she immediately pouted and said, "Uncle, next time the maid will also go!" ”

"No problem, as long as you're not afraid!" Yang Yi pinched Ming'er's cheeks and responded with a smile. Then he ran to Thirteen Niang's side and said, "Lady, it's hard work!" ”

Who knew that Thirteen Niang suddenly showed a brutal and pretty appearance, and said: "Official, the slave will also go tomorrow!" ”

Yang Yi looked at her slightly bulging lower abdomen and was shocked!

"Lady, don't come to the truth! With your body, you can't fly! Can't fly! Mother, they know that they have to pick my skin! ”

"Hehe, it's okay if you don't go, you just promise me one thing!"

Yang Yi immediately raised his hand and promised: "Don't say one, ten pieces are fine, please say it!" ”

Thirteen Niang smiled like a fox, and said with a bright eye: "Official, Li Xiangxian ......"

"Yikes!" Yang Yi exclaimed in surprise and said solemnly, "Lady, I have decided to appoint you as the director of the Huanzhou Intelligence Bureau from now on......"

"Officials don't want to cheat...... Hee-hee......"
