No matter how cautious Yi Feng is, gold will always shine, and Huaihuang is no longer the original barren place, but now it has become a cornucopia and a cash cow flowing with gold and silver. Others will also be jealous of the title of 100,000 soldiers and horses and the emperor's grandson in Yi Feng's hands, but not everyone cares about this. Yang Guang, the king of Jin in Yangzhou, is like this, and Yang Liang, the king of Han in Taiyuan City, Hedong, is also the one who doesn't take Yi Feng in his eyes at all.

The prosperity of Huaihuang was enough to make Yang Liang, the king of Han, who coveted his wealth, not take the title of imperial grandson in his eyes. What's more, Yi Feng's title of imperial grandson is still a little unclear, and his title of King Han is really there. The emperor's grandson and the emperor's son fought, and Yang Liang didn't feel that he would be left behind. Besides, Yi Feng, the governor of Wuzhou, is still directly under him, the governor of the state. Yang Liang still remembered that the two people in the Daxing Palace now cared about this imperial grandson, so they were not too arrogant. Instead, he thought that he was a bit of a good eater, and sent a personal guard governor over, with a style of saluting first and then soldiering, and directly took fifty Han king's cronies into the city, and came to the gate of the governor's mansion, and took out a sticker from his bosom with his nostrils facing the sky, claiming to be the envoy of the king of Han.

After entering the governor's mansion, this gloomy middle-aged man with the title of the chief of the guards of the Han Palace, but with the demeanor of a heavenly envoy, saw Yi Feng but did not even have basic etiquette. Straight to the point: "Yi Feng, are you guilty?" ”

Yi Feng was a little inexplicable, even if this guy was from the Han Palace, he was also the head of a town, not to mention the 100,000 soldiers and horses under his command. Just the rumored title of the emperor's grandson, this guy at least has to be restrained. And as soon as you come in, you shout that you are guilty, damn you, you should be a prisoner under trial by the county order. Originally, he still thought. When someone comes to the Han Palace, he may have to give some gifts and be perfunctory. I didn't expect the other party to be so polite. Yi Feng couldn't help but laugh angrily, and immediately put away the politeness on the surface, and simply leaned back, holding on to the armrest of the chair. sneered, "What is Yi's crime? ”

Seeing Yi Fengcheng's frightened appearance, Zhao Zhang, the envoy of the King of Han, was a little surprised. Immediately, his face became more and more ugly, and he shouted: "The governor of Pontus is the envoy of the King of Han, you have such an attitude? It's arrogant, rampant! ”

The generals in the hall all glared angrily when they heard this. The battalion general Wang Bao directly pressed his hand on the head of the golden tiger with the handle of the knife.

"Where did the birdman come from? It's not annoying to be chattering here. Dashuai, let someone beat him out! ”

Yi Feng raised his hand, "Don't worry, you might as well listen to how this envoy wants to condemn me first." ”

When Wang Bao put his hand on the knife, a trace of panic flashed in Zhao Zhang's triangular eyes, but when he saw Yi Feng stop him, he became louder and louder. "Yi Feng, take care of your men. And there are no rules. The places outside the fortress are indeed a group of vulgar and barbaric people, without rules. ”

"Why can't my people teach you a lesson, let's talk about the guilt you want to put on Ben Shuai's head."

"Well, the governor of Pontus asks you, wait for the bandits of the green forest, and they will be favored by the saint and appeased. Er was even given the important position of governor of Wuzhou and high-ranking official of the assassination history by His Majesty, so he should be grateful. ”

Yi Feng looked at this guy coldly, "Of course I am grateful, we are grateful to His Majesty for His Majesty's grace, why, do you dare to doubt it?" ”

"Not necessarily, if you are really grateful, then why don't you put the court's laws and etiquette in your eyes? Since you are grateful, then you are now the governor of Wuzhou, under the command of King Han, the governor of Bingzhou, but why have you never gone to King Jin to meet King Han since you took office. Why has he never handed over an official document to Jinyang and paid a penny of taxes? Zhao Zhang asked questions like a cannon, and when he said the excitement, his saliva flew wildly. In his mind, even if Yi Feng is a prince, he can just be a green forest horse thief before, even if he has a mutation now, but he is here on behalf of the King of Han, as long as he grasps Yi Feng's mistakes, he still dares to disagree.

"Ben Shuai guards the gate of the northern frontier for the Son of Heaven, and is a barrier outside the Great Wall, and His Majesty has granted a privilege to act expediently. During this time, a certain has been busy defending the enemy for the country, and he has no time to go to Jinyang for a while, presumably the king of Jin will not blame a certain person for this little thing. ”

It is true that Yi Feng has the right to act expediently given by the Son of Heaven, and Zhao Zhang was blocked there all of a sudden, and he didn't know how to continue.

"Does King Han have anything else to convey to you? If not, then you can return to Taiyuan, the official business of this marshal is prosperous, and it will not be sent far. Someone, send off! "A little Governor Yi Feng really doesn't care about it, if it is Yang Liang himself, Yi Feng may be a little polite.

Zhao Zhang didn't understand that Yi Feng had saved him the last bit of face, and he still didn't know how to advance or retreat and stand there.

"King Han also heard that there is a big brewery in Huaihuang in Jinyang, and it is said that there are as many as 10,000 workers who make wine alone, and the daily production of wine is huge, right?" Zhao Zhang said triumphantly, as if he felt that he had mastered Yi Feng's future and destiny with one hand.

Unexpectedly, after Yi Feng heard it, he just nodded flatly, and said without denying it at all: "Well, King Han is still very well-informed." Huaihuang Wine Workshop has just completed the production capacity upgrade recently, and has increased a lot of manpower, why, Han Wang also heard that Huaihuang Brewed wine is delicious, let you buy some back? ”

"Just admit it!" Zhao Zhang laughed three times, and then suddenly shouted, "Yi Feng, you are so bold, this is a violation of the law, and the crime is added to the first." Don't you know that the imperial court has long had a ban on private brewing and selling alcohol? ”

Zhao Zhang's pride is not without reason, in the eyes of the ancients, three catties of grain to make one catty of wine, winemaking is a waste of food. Therefore, in disaster years, or even when the country is at war, in order to save food, the imperial court will issue a ban on alcohol. Sometimes alcohol is directly forbidden, and it is not allowed to brew or drink. Sometimes, however, it is forbidden for the people to make wine privately, and it can only be sold by the imperial court, or it can be made privately, but it must be subject to a high liquor tax. During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the use of troops was continuous, and the expenses were huge. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty issued an edict on liquor, stipulating that only the imperial court could make wine and sell wine, and use the money from the sale of wine to supply military needs. However, this policy was only implemented for more than ten years, and because there was too much smuggling among the people, it had to be canceled and changed to tax liquor. Since then, successive dynasties. They are also oscillating between the prohibition of alcohol, the tax on alcohol, and the ban.

When the Great Sui was established, there were constant wars and frequent use of troops. Yang Jian specially ordered the prohibition of private brewing, and once violated, he would be punished viciously. At that time, Liu Fang, a meritorious minister who helped Yang Jian usurp the throne from the Northern Zhou Dynasty, disregarded the ban on making wine privately at home, and then sold wine on the street, and was condemned by the Son of Heaven.

However, in the third year of the emperor's reign, the imperial court defeated the Turks, and the country was in good condition. Therefore, Yang Jian lifted the prohibition of alcohol. Not only was the prohibition lifted, but there was no special liquor tax. It's just that after this ban was lifted, in the past ten years since then. There were also temporary bans, one was during the war with the Turks in the seventh year of the emperor's reign, and the ban was lifted after the war. The other two were when there was a catastrophe and alcohol was banned. But after the disaster. The ban is reinstated. So. In the sixteenth year of the emperor's reign, the imperial court had already made a plan to prepare for a war with the Turks, so in order to accumulate grain and grass, from the seventeenth year of the emperor's reign, the prohibition of alcohol was reinstated. Until now, two years have passed since the prohibition was enforced and there is still no sign of lifting the ban. As usual, the prohibition would not have been lifted until after the Great War.

Therefore. Yi Feng is brewing wine in Huaihuang, which is actually a violation of the alcohol ban. Zhao Zhang felt that he had caught Yi Feng's handle. So it's very proud.

Yi Feng said with a smile, "Ben Shuai remembers that the reason why the imperial court banned winemaking was because winemaking consumed food, right?" ”

"Of course, for example, there are still many people who don't have enough to eat today, but you dare to openly violate the prohibition and use precious grain to make wine, how can it be true!" Zhao Zhang asked loudly.

"Who said that Huaihuang brewing is made from grain?" Yi Feng said with a smile.

"Is there any wine in the world that can be made without grain?" Zhao Zhang also responded with a sneer, in his opinion, Yi Feng's words were a clumsy excuse, full of flaws and vulnerable.

"Of course there is, to tell you the truth, the liquor brewed by Huaihuang Distillery does not need to be brewed with grain."

"It can't be, you're lying!"

"Of course it's possible, it's possible in the world. Just because you don't know doesn't mean you don't, it's just because you're like a frog at the bottom of a well. ”

"Lies!" Zhao Zhang shouted.

Yi Feng shook his head, "Actually, this was originally a secret of the wine shop, but it doesn't matter if I sue you." Huaihuang Distillery makes wine, not with grain, but with a variety of fruits. ”

Zhao Zhang was stunned, looking at Yi Feng's calm appearance, he felt that this was really possible. But this time he came to shoulder the mission of the King of Han, not to discuss how to make wine. Therefore, after a short pause, he immediately grasped a little bit, "The imperial court has explicitly banned alcohol, whether you use grain to make wine or use fruit to make wine, in short, you are violating the imperial court decree." ”

"Oh, so you have to get along with so-and-so?"

"It's you who disobey the law."

"Then what are you going to do, and go up to the court to punish my majesty?" Yi Feng asked.

Zhao Zhang thought that he really pinched Yi Feng, and immediately revealed the fox's tail. "Hehe, this matter should be so, but Han Wang Nian you are also a first offender, if you are willing to take out half of the dry shares of the wine shop and give it to Han Wang, then Han Wang can mediate for you."

"Half of the dry stock of the winery?" Yi Feng pinched his chin and pretended to think.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhang hurriedly added, "Well, half of the winery is dry, and all the wine brewed in the winery will have to be sold to the Han Wangfu in the future." ”

"Underwriting, at what price are you going to pack?" Yi Feng continued to ask, there was already a hint of mockery in his voice, but Zhao Zhang didn't hear it, but proudly gave a price, which was only one-tenth of the current price.

At this time, Yi Feng already felt that there was no need to tease this guy anymore, and said in a deep voice: "Take him down, dare to pretend to be the envoy of the King of Han to deceive, and even dare to deceive Ben Shuai's head, I really don't know whether he is alive or dead." Take it down and interrogate it and see how many accomplices there are! If you are not honest, don't be polite to him. This kind of liar, even if he is killed, it doesn't matter. ”

Several guards came in with knives, grabbed Zhao Zhang and dragged him out. At this time, Zhao Zhang realized that things were not right as he expected, and hurriedly scolded, but the guards directly punched them down, and a few teeth were knocked out. Zhao Zhang immediately softened, knowing that this was not a joke, and begged for mercy at the moment, "Yi Shuai, a person who is really the king of Han, not a liar." ”

Yi Feng didn't pay attention to it at all, and waved his hand, "Take it down!" ”

After being thrown into the black prison, Zhao Zhang finally panicked, but no matter how he slapped and shouted, no one responded. (To be continued......)
