Chapter Twenty-Seven: Who's in Control?

readx; "I prepared for ten years in western Yunnan, and secretly arranged for ten years, so that all the Tubo people in this land were cleared, just to let the Great Song Dynasty have a safe horse pasture. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

When Cao Rong was appointed as the pacification envoy of Jianchang Mansion, I expressed my opposition, just as Niangniang said, Cao Rong was kind to me, so I did not stick to my opposition to the end.

At that time, I thought that 14,000 fierce soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty were stationed in a small area, and there would be no trouble no matter what.

It's a pity, Cao Rong oppressed the local people, after all, Jianchang Mansion is a new land, and it is reasonable for the laws to be stricter.

I just want to ask Niangniang, the late Cao Gong is a famous general of my Great Song Dynasty, didn't he tell his children how to treat his subordinates?

Sending his subordinates to mine and torturing them like savages, is he not worried about his own safety at all? ”

Yun Zheng knocked on the topographic map of Jianchang Mansion with his hand.

Queen Cao sat there solemnly like a Bodhisattva, Yun Zheng said that she knew all the things, many orders came from her mouth at all, Cao Rong was also from the Jiangmen anyway, knowing that the soldiers under him could not be excessively harsh, he himself did a good job when he was in Shuzhong, everyone lived a peaceful and corrupt life, although there were small dirty, but there was no loss in the big festival, so the Yongxing army was still very grateful to him.

Since the emperor's body collapsed, the queen's demand for money has increased more than a hundred times in an instant, she does not have the chicken that lays golden eggs for her like Shuzhong Commercial Bank, most of the Cao family's industry is real estate, and she cannot provide her with a large amount of financial resources in a short period of time, so the Jianchang Mansion guarded by Cao Rong has become her primary target. Under the tyranny of expropriation, it is normal for uncontrollable things to occur.

Empress Cao did not judge what Cao Rong had done. did not express his understanding of Yun Zheng's distress of not sending troops to rescue Cao Rong at that time, and pointed to the eight palace maids in front of him who were covered with rotten apricots and said: "These eight palace maids are all virgins, and their looks are good, you can stay as concubines." ”

After saying these words, he got up and got on the free horse under the service of the red-clothed guards, looked at Yun Zheng with a puzzled face, and said, "This world is too big, and the big one is boundless. I heard that after the Great War, you will go overseas to establish your own country, so these eight women should be considered as a congratulatory gift from me in advance. ”

Yun Zheng would not be the queen in such a situation, and said with a smile: "Weichen's temperament is wild, staying in the Great Song Dynasty in Taiping will make everyone uncomfortable, so I decided to send myself overseas, fishing and planting trees there, maybe I can kill the anger in my chest, where does the theory of founding the country come from?" ”

The queen sighed and said, "You always don't trust me, so don't worry. Standing high and tall, everyone can't be suspicious, this palace is waiting for you to be crowned king in the battle of Song Liao! ”

Lu Qingqing saw that the queen was far away, and then looked at the eight palace maids who were kneeling on the ground trembling, picked up the chin of these palace maids with his fingers and looked at them one by one, and then said to Yun Zheng with a smile: "Husband, there is finally a servant to call." ”

Yun Zheng said with a smile: "No matter what mission they have, they will always die of old age, go back to their homes and find some matching people to marry them, let's not make evil as well." ”

Lu Qingqing nodded and said, "The concubine is really not afraid of the queen's beauty tricks. There are so many beautiful women in the world, what is the matter of sending eight unknown women over? ”

Yun Zheng stuffed a sweet apricot like honey into his mouth. Picking up Yunzhang, who took his fingers in his mouth and sucked Yun, he walked towards the depths of the apricot forest.

The battle with the queen has finally come to an end, the queen is not here to listen to the high-sounding nonsense she said today, what she needs is Yun Zheng to have an attitude of explanation, don't say that Yun Zheng took out the Great Song Dynasty Ma Zheng as an excuse, even if Yun Zheng said that he overslept at the time and didn't have time to save it. The queen will also be the current attitude.

Holding the little son who was dripping with saliva, he peeled a small hole from an apricot, let him hold it with both hands and slowly suck it, and saw Xiaolin sitting under the apricot tree drinking stuffy wine, so he walked over.

Xiaolin took a sip of wine. Hand the wine gourd to Yun Zheng, he took Yun Zhang's cherished left and right looks, and finally looked at Yun Zheng's face and said: "The bandits of Taihang Mountain have disappeared, and the bandits of Taihang Mountain who have hidden 100,000 iron armor in legend have disappeared." ”

"Is anyone scared? Like the Queen? ”

Xiaolin nodded and said, "I just saw that the queen gave you eight palace maids, it seems that you accepted it?" ”

Yun Zheng returned the wine gourd to Xiaolin, and took the son who was reluctant to stay in his arms again, and said: "If you don't accept that those eight women are dead, you see, the red-clothed female guards who followed up just now have all seen blood, and it is estimated that there is no problem in killing these eight palace maids." ”

"Vulnerable! The force does not even have thirty percent of your little wife's. ”

"It's already very powerful, and you can beat my little wife with four. By the way, is the flower girl okay? Tell that woman, don't feel sorry for me, I don't rebel, so I won't think about killing the emperor, so I won't kill you.

We are still friends who sit in the Dousha Village drinking and singing together, I only hope that Wugou can come out of meditation this time, the outside world is still Lang Lang Sky, not as filthy as you think. ”

Xiaolin suddenly laughed, and his cold face was suddenly full of smiles, which made people's hearts warm when they looked at it.

"There are no 100,000 people in Taihang Mountain, let alone 100,000 iron armor, and it is not the Buddhist world of Maitreya Sect, there is only the shadow of a strange woman.

Yun Zheng glanced at Xiaolin and said helplessly: "Even if you know that woman, you don't have to show it off in front of me, let alone talk about it everywhere, right?" ”

Xiaolin smiled: "I don't have any thoughts about that woman......"

"If you dared to have a mind for her, I would have torn you to shreds......"

"Why did all the bandits from Taihang Mountain go to Liao?"

"Because Jiang Zhe's army is suppressing bandits in Taihang Mountain......"

"Do you know that Li Dongchu is recruiting Han people from the Liao Kingdom in Taiyuan Mansion?"

"Maybe Li Dongchu's family wants to find more servants......"

This is also a reason, but the Kong family has opened more than 600 private schools in the sixteen states of Yanyun, and has taught the Han people in the sixteen states of Yanyun for six years, and the worst thing is that they do not collect money.

I've personally seen that the people who teach children to read and write in those small private schools are well-educated people, and those people not only teach children to read, but also adults who are willing to read can go to the class.

I saw a gentleman take off his shoes to a half-grown child who had no shoes to wear, and went home barefoot in the cold. ”

Yun Zheng looked at Xiaolin and said, "Isn't such a gentleman worthy of your admiration?" ”

Xiaolin said helplessly: "Such a gentleman naturally needs to be admired, and those people in poor villages are about to admire those gentlemen."

But the gentleman, who had just given the students his shoes, turned around and sat down with the robbers to drink.

I could see very clearly that the gentleman had a thick fur on his feet when he was drinking, and after drinking, the gentleman deliberately rubbed his feet on the ground, and then went back to his dilapidated house with his feet muddy under the reverent gaze of the villagers. ”

Yun Zheng took a sip of wine and sighed: "It's still not reverent enough, if an elder jumps out at this time, takes off his shoes and gives them to Mr., and then is sternly rejected by Mr., then this Mr. can be the head of this village." ”

"Are you not very satisfied with the changes in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun today? Bandits are rampant in the township, the government is rampant, gentlemen are bewitching the township everywhere, and businessmen are taking salaries everywhere, do you know that today's Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures are not an exaggeration to call them hell on earth. ”

Yun Zheng dragged his son back who had crawled away and said indifferently: "The current policy of the Liao State is to keep the people in a state of poverty, and they think that the advantage of this is that the people will not have the ability to rebel. I like their current policy. ”

Xiaolin said: "Today's Liao, grain is expensive, salt is expensive, livestock is expensive, cloth is expensive, only iron is amazingly cheap, a pound of pig iron is worth six yuan, Liao has never been short of iron, the Great Song Dynasty also desperately exported iron to Liao, whose idea is this?" ”

"Han Qi! This is Han Qi's idea, he thinks that if the people don't have food, they will habitually use iron tools to find food, they are all brothers and sisters in the same lineage, and they must always find a way to eat. ”

"In that case, why don't you just ship the grain over, and save the government a large subsidy for those iron dealers. Those are all state funds, don't you feel distressed? ”

Yun Zheng patted Xiaolin's shoulder and said: "The teacher of Huanghuang solves the people in the upside down, naturally it is necessary to be upright, there is a way to cut down the Tao, this is the principle of heaven, this is also the trend of the times, just like pushing a boat down the river, just like pushing a stone down the mountain, using force is the most clever means, you can't not understand this truth, it seems that taking advantage of the trend is also your Taoist method." ”

"Taoism is not so lacking in virtue, I won't tell you, we will talk about the matter of Hanlin later, now, I should go to see Your Majesty, he is worried about the bandits in Taihang Mountain, I should go to calm his heart, you say, a patient who can't move and can't speak, it's really difficult for him to the hearts of the whole world."

After Xiaolin finished speaking, he jumped up the apricot tree, threw the largest and yellowest apricot for Yun Zheng, and then disappeared into the woods.

Yun Zheng caught the apricots, frowned at the sparse apricots under the apricot tree, hugged his son and said a strange language that only their father and son could understand, and returned to the stream. (To be continued.) )
