264. 116. Don't move
As soon as Hua Qingmo's words fell, Liu Tian fell directly from the horse to the front of the carriage, and said respectfully to the curtain: "The matter that Madame asked is the secret matter of King Xiao's Mansion, can my subordinates come in and sue Madame?" so as not to be known by those who care. ”
Hearing Liu Xuan's solemn words, Hua Qingmo was slightly surprised, and she was a little puzzled by the secrets of this fiefdom. After a moment of silence, Hua Qingmo looked at April, which was closest to the curtain, and said loudly: "Let the flow pour in." ”
"Yes, ma'am." April answered, and then lifted the curtain to let the stream in.
At this time, the flow of the leaning, wearing not the clothes usually worn by the East Factory brocade guards, but a navy blue robe, the style is very similar to the clothing of the West Factory Ouchi secret agent, the robe is embroidered with gold and silver thread as the main embroidered a four-clawed python, the front placket is the head of the python, the python body winds up, until the robe behind them, and a white jade unicorn pattern jade buckle is worn around the waist.
He knelt on one knee in front of Hua Qingmo, his handsome face was like an ethereal white cloud floating over the green mountains, handsome and extraordinary, but with a trace of indescribable coldness.
"Mrs. Qiyu, Youzhou is a fief given by the emperor when the emperor is the lord of Xiao, but Youzhou was mainly used to resell weapons before, and the grain-producing counties were just an excuse to cover up. And the emperor gave the governor Youzhou so that the governor could wipe out those traders who resold weapons. Liutian looked at Hua Qingmo calmly and replied loudly.
This made Hua Qingmo smile, she looked at Liu Xuan, and there was an indescribable smile in her eyes: "I have seen the account books in the mansion, although it has only been a few years, but the silver taels from the fiefdom into the mansion must be more than grain, I think Zi Xiao should not have attacked those vendors, but acted as a middleman in the reselling of weapons, right?" ”
"Madame wise, the Overseer does so."
Liu Xuan's answer confirmed what Hua Qingmo had just said, knowing that Bai Zixiao used his power to collude with those traders to seek benefits. However, private reselling cannot be eradicated, rather than catching it all, it is better to intervene from it, which can not only prevent it from becoming bigger, but also give birth to a way to make money, why not?
Besides, after intervening from it, you should be able to know who is buying weapons privately, so you can get a lot of good information.
After smiling slightly, Hua Qingmo asked Xiang Liutian again: "Since Youzhou uses grain production as an excuse, then the granary there should not be small!" ”
"Mrs. Hui, there is no granary in Youzhou." Liutian said without any concealment.
"What?" Hua Qingmo was startled by Liu's words, and her eyes were full of surprise. Since it is a large grain-producing county, why is there no granary? This can't be explained! Hua Qingmo thought for a moment and couldn't think of a reason, so she asked Liutian directly: "Why is this so?" It stands to reason that Youzhou is rich in production, there should be a granary, and the emperor must also know about it, how can he not let people set up a granary in Youzhou in case of emergency? ”
Hua Qingmo's words slowly fell, and an indescribable smile appeared on the corner of her cool lips. He looked at Hua Qingmo, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, and his voice was still so respectful: "Madam, this matter is not easy for subordinates to say, Madame will go back and ask the overseer." ”
"I see, you step back first!" Hua Qingmo waved her hand, and immediately left the carriage after a salute. Looking at the curtain of dark purple cloud brocade on the carriage, Hua Qingmo's eyes flashed a trace of unspeakable depth.
Although she is not a good person, she also carries a lot of blood debts and human lives. But the people are the foundation of the country, and if she wants to live in this world peacefully, she naturally needs to care about the world. Most of these dozen or so urgent recitals are about the people starving, cold and starving, and if the court does not give a good solution, something will inevitably happen.
First, there was a rebellion in northern Xinjiang, and now there is a food shortage in more than a dozen prefectures and counties at the same time, resulting in a large number of hungry people. Hua Qingmo really felt that the Hua Dynasty this year was not very peaceful.
In a trance, he had already arrived at the Ningjun Palace, and when he saw that Hua Qingmo's expression was a little wrong, he immediately called out: "Madam, I've arrived at the County Palace." ”
"yes, I see." Hua Qingmo nodded, and then got out of the carriage. When I entered the Ningjun Palace, I saw a few people walking towards the gate. The person at the head was the king of Ningjun, he was wearing a dark blue Wufu Shoutuanhua robe, his black hair was tied up by a jade crown, although he was a little older, but he still exuded a trace of indescribable heroism.
And beside him was a man wearing a bat-patterned jade robe with a red background, looking about his early twenties, his black hair was only tied with a square scarf, his complexion was fair, his face looked extremely handsome, and his eyebrows were four or five points similar to King Ningjun.
As soon as she saw this man, Hua Qingmo knew that this was her second uncle, Hua Mubai, the general of Zhenguo.
"I've seen Princess Xiao!" King Ningjun and Hua Mubai saluted Hua Qingmo together, and then King Ningjun looked at Hua Qingmo and asked loudly, "Mo'er, are you coming back to visit Yu'er?" ”
"Hmm!" Hua Qingmo nodded, and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips. Although there are not many opportunities to meet King Ningjun, every time she sees him, Hua Qingmo can think of Baili Yuche who only died in her arms, and the hatred for King Ningjun in her heart becomes stronger and stronger.
It's not that she won't take revenge, but she's waiting for King Ningjun to make a big mistake, and then she will definitely let him be ruined and die in pain.
Looking at Hua Mubai on the side, Hua Qingmo smiled slightly, and her voice was cold: "I heard that the second uncle came to the county king's mansion from Dingdu City, presumably this is the second uncle, right?" ”
Hua Mubai heard Hua Qingmo's voice, her eyes were like a light jade light, looking at her quietly and slowly. The moment Hua Qingmo saw Hua Mubai's eyes, she was stunned, and when she walked from a distance, she saw that it was just a handsome and extraordinary man.
But now, these eyes fell in front of his eyes, as if he saw the water of the Huanxi River gently blown in the spring, with shallow ripples in the gentleness, cool and clear. The lake reflects the blue sky of early spring, and an indescribable atmosphere of exaltation arises.
Hua Qingmo has never seen a person's eyes, they can be so calm and motionless, like a puppet being accused by others, but they are surprisingly beautiful.
"The second uncle rarely goes back to the house, this time I went back to the house, the niece in the house married a lot, and the gift given to you, the second uncle will let someone send it to you." Hua Mubai smiled slightly, her eyes did not change much, she still seemed to be being accused by someone, and there was indescribable beauty in her godlessness.
"Thank you, Second Uncle." Hearing this, Hua Qingmo smiled at Hua Mubai, and then she continued to speak: "Father, second uncle, Mo'er will go in first without disturbing the two of you to travel." ”
"Well, the king of this county and your second uncle also have something to go out for." After Ning Junwang finished speaking, he and Hua Mubai crossed Hua Qingmo and left.
At this time, Hua Qingmo did not immediately walk to the county king's mansion, but looked at Hua Mubai's figure. I wonder if she's too suspicious? Her second uncle's body has an indescribable fragrance, and this fragrance is extremely strange.
After Hua Mubai and his party walked out of the Ningjun Palace, Hua Qingmo turned around and prepared to enter the mansion, and after taking two steps, Hua Qingmo stopped, then looked at Liujing, and ordered: "Liujing, go follow them and see where they went?" ”
"Yes, ma'am."
After Liujing left, Hua Qingmo went to Hua Minzhi's Min Courtyard to visit Hua Yuqing. Probably really frightened, Hua Yuqing is a little unwell to this day, and she is not as happy as she was in the past when she came back, but she still stuck to herself.
After lunch, Hua Qingmo took Hua Yuqing for a walk in the garden. Although the back garden of Ningjun Wangfu is not as large as that of Xiao Wangfu, it has planted a lot of spring flowers, and now they are all open at the right time, and the whole garden is full of flowers, and the scenery is charming.
After staying in the garden for about half an hour, Hua Qingmo was ready to take Hua Yuqing to visit the princess of Laojun. Just as he was about to leave, a group of people came out from the crescent moon gate on the side, led by Chu Youran and Chu Shiyin, whose abdomen was slightly raised, followed by Yingge, Zhao Wu, Hua Xiyao, Hua Rongying and Hua Hanxi.
Seeing these people coming, Hua Qingmo smiled slightly, and then walked over slowly.
"I've seen Princess Xiao, Princess Xiao An!" Chu Youran and the others saluted Hua Qingmo.
"No need to be polite." Hua Qingmo said lightly, and after leading everyone to stand, her eyes fell on Chu Shiyin's abdomen, and said with a faint smile: "It is said that a woman's complexion will be slightly dull yellow when she is pregnant, but the side concubine's birth is really a bit peculiar. ”
Hearing this, an indescribable smile appeared on Chu Shiyin's beautiful face, she reached out and stroked her abdomen, and said loudly: "Probably because this child knows that I am pregnant with him, so he didn't make trouble with me. Princess Xiao also has to pay attention in the future, pregnant women have to be well raised, otherwise it will not be good to leave some sick roots. ”
After finishing speaking, Chu Shiyin seemed to realize that she had said the wrong thing, and immediately said apologetically: "Forgive me, Princess Xiao, after this concubine became pregnant, she was a little confused, and she almost forgot that Princess Xiao was married to nine thousand years old, and I am afraid that she will not be tossed by the child in this life." ”
"Really?" Hua Qingmo smiled faintly when she heard Chu Shiyin's words, and she reached out to Chu Shiyin's abdomen. Suddenly, Chu Shiyin wanted to retreat, but at this time, Hua Qingmo said extremely coldly: "Concubine Fang, don't move, lest Qingmo is not light or heavy, and it will not be good to accidentally hurt you." ”
Such a threat made Chu Shiyin's eyes sink slightly, and she wanted to retreat, but she was afraid of Hua Qingmo's words. This child is very important to her, and she must not let this child have an accident before she gives birth.
At this time, Hua Qingmo's hand was attached to Chu Shiyin's bulging abdomen, gently stroking, and then she touched her abdomen, thinking that her belly would probably be like this when she got bigger in the future.
Smiling slightly, Hua Qingmo's hand left Chu Shiyin's abdomen, then looked at her, and said, "What Concubine Fang just said is good, Qingmo may not be tossed by a child for the rest of her life." However, the faces of Xiao Wangfu are all real men, and it is not difficult for Qing Mo to have children, as long as the nine thousand years old agree. ”
