The house of Han Erlang's family is built at the foot of Shaohua Mountain, leaning on the mountain and building, covering an area of about ten acres, with heavy high walls, broad courtyards, green tiles and vermilion eaves, carved beams and painted buildings, it is the home of the rich at a glance. The stone lions and flagpoles standing at the entrance indicate that this is a family of eunuchs.

The west wing of the second courtyard of the mansion is where the guest room is located, where the flowers and trees are flourishing, there are ponds and pavilions, and the flowers and plants are not much decorated, so they are full of wild interest.

In an elegant and clean guest room, the window is bright and clean, there is a bottle of orchids on the table, exuding a faint fragrance, and there is a woman sitting on the edge of the bed, with a large-sleeved undergarment, a jade-colored Luo skirt, a long show, a jasper hairpin on her black hair, delicate facial features, and delicate skin, as elegant as the orchid in the thin-necked bottle.

This orchid-like elegant and delicate woman is the tigress in Han Erlang's mouth.

The tigress's name is Xiang Ruolan, and her husband Guo Jingzhi is now the assassin of Weizhou, Weizhou is in the Longxi region, the law and order is not quiet, and there are often wars with Tubo, so it is inconvenient to go with her family. Besides, the old mother is in the hall, and there is only one younger brother left at home, and there is no principal, Guo Jingzhi can't rest assured, so he leaves his wife in his hometown to take care of his wife.

There were still a few people standing quietly beside the couch, two girls in Tsing Yi, an old man dressed as a housekeeper, and Guo Shaofan, the second lang. Guo Shaofan saw that his sister-in-law withdrew her hand, so he asked in a humble voice: "Sister-in-law, how is my cousin?" ”

Xiang Ruolan glanced at him, and said angrily: "I said that it wasn't your cousin, Hugh has to talk nonsense!" ”

Guo Shaofan scratched the back of his head and said wonderfully: "Isn't it really my cousin, how can she recognize me?" ”

Xiang Ruolan ignored him anymore, and only instructed the two maids: "Although this girl is seriously injured, fortunately it is not as important as the point, but she has lost too much blood and needs to be recuperated for some time." She's not going to be able to live very easily right now, so you two can stay here and take care of her! ”

"Yes!"

The two little girls agreed, and Guo Shaofan grinned and said, "Sister-in-law has excellent medical skills, if you say she's fine, then she must be fine." Hey! I was in the mountains when I yujian her. That body of blood, I don't know how many injuries I suffered, it's really scary. ”

Xiang Ruolan shook her head lightly and said, "This girl has many abrasions on her body, especially the abrasions on her right leg. Looks like. It's not that I met some bad guys, but it seems to be caused by falling off a cliff. It's just that I don't know if it's a suicide or a mistake when I travel the mountains. Erlang, you tell me to go down, if someone comes to the door to inquire about the whereabouts of a girl who has fallen off the mountain. and brought them to me......"

"Don't! Don't go ......"

Suddenly there was a hurried cry on the couch, and when she turned her head to look at Ruolan, she saw that the girl had woken up, and she couldn't help but say happily: "Girl, are you awake?" ”

Guo Shaofan poked his big face like a pot helmet up. I saw that the girl on the couch had wide apricot eyes, full of anxiety, although her cheeks were pale and haggard due to excessive blood loss, they were like snow lotus blooming, and even though the two lip flaps were bloodless, they still seemed to be delicate and beautiful, and they were really pitiful, and they couldn't help but exclaim: "Sister-in-law, my cousin is so beautiful!" ”

Xiang Ruolan glanced at him angrily. Said: "Go to the side!" Said it's not your cousin! ”

Tianai Nu Sakura's lips pursed slightly, and she gasped, "Thank you, madam...... The grace of saving lives, the news that the little woman is here, and I hope to ...... Confidentiality ......"

Xiang Ruolan's face suddenly showed a look of alertness, and she blurted out, "Who is the girl?" Why is it so badly injured? ”

"I ...... It's ......" Fang Cai's sentence seemed to have exhausted all the strength of Tianainu, and he barely said this, his head tilted. I fainted again.

Xiang Ruolan groaned slightly, and said to Guo Shaofan: "Second brother." You and order to go down, go up and down, and wait, don't leak the news that our family rescued a girl, and all violators will be driven out of the house!" ”

"Good!"

Guo Shaofan agreed, kicked his feet, and ran out like a big bull.

Xiang Ruolan instructed again: "Bring over the clothes that this girl has changed and all the utensils she is carrying!" ”

The two little girls hurriedly brought the clothes they took off when they changed their clothes for Tianinu, and carefully examined them to Ruolan, in addition to seeing that the clothes were of good quality, they did not find anything that could identify them, so they said: "You take care of her, and tell me when she wakes up!" ”

Xiang Ruolan got up to leave, the old housekeeper followed suit, and as soon as the two of them left the guest room, the old housekeeper said: "Big lady, this girl's origin is unknown, our family shouldn't accept her." ”

Xiang Ruolan said: "Her background may be a little suspicious, but the injury is not fake, and looking at her expression, she is not a bad worker, how can she not be saved?" I've been married to Lang Jun for many years, and I don't have an heir, didn't Zhiyuan Zen Master say that I want to do more good deeds and accumulate more yin virtues, isn't this a good deed? When she wakes up, I'll ask her where she came from. ”

The old butler is only praised.

Xiang Ruolan raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Okay, you don't have to worry about this, let's concentrate on raising food." Shen Mu is using Chang'an as a battlefield and food as a weapon, fighting with that Jiang Gongzi from afar, this battle, we can't lose here! ”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

On the Wucheng Palace, Wu Zetian frowned slightly, carefully read the two pieces of music in his hand, and then flipped through the pieces that had just been approved, picked out another one and opened it, and looked at it against the two copies in his hand, with a slight trace of anger on his face, he threw the three copies on the imperial case, and said unhappily: "Liu Yitian, the Yin of Chang'an Mansion, probably doesn't want to do it anymore, what kind of foolish official is this?" ”

Chang'an and Luoyang are the capital and capital of the Tang Dynasty, after Wu Zetian became emperor in Luoyang, the capital and the capital were reversed, Chang'an became the capital, and Luoyang became the capital. The highest governor of the capital and the accompanying capital is "Mu", but "Mu" does not preside over government affairs, but only a prince Yao leads this position, and the official who actually presides over government affairs is "Yin", and Liu Yitian is Chang'an Yin.

This Chang'an Yin burned his butt as if he gave Wu Zetian a note, saying that because of the Turkic invasion, in order to avoid war, the wealthy merchants in the Western Regions purchased grain on a large scale, and Hu Sero brought tens of thousands of old and young people from the Western Turks to Chang'an, the grain was tight, and the price of grain in Chang'an City rose three times a day.

Chang'an was originally the capital of the Tang Dynasty, but now although it is the capital, its status is not inferior to Luoyang, and if the political situation in Chang'an is unstable, it will cause turmoil in the country. How dare Wu Zetian despise it, she has just personally approved and ordered all localities to allocate grain to stabilize the price of goods in Chang'an, but the chapter has not yet been issued. Liu Yitian sent another piece of music with a 600-mile fast horse. It is said that due to the retreat of the Turks, the wealthy merchants in the Western Regions who stocked grain sold their grain one after another, and the price of grain has fallen back to a normal level.

This would have been a happy event, since the price of grain in Chang'an has stabilized. The imperial court also saved a lot of trouble, who knows that it is almost the front and back, Liufu Yin sent an 800-mile urgent express, saying that there are frequent rumors in the market, and it is rumored that there will be a big drought in the summer and autumn of this year, and there will be no harvest; It is rumored that the Turkic thief is not dead. Those who want to join forces with Tubo to commit crimes again. As a result, the gentry and the common people rushed to grab grain, causing the price of grain to rise again, forming a grain shortage, and begging the imperial court to allocate grain to help the crisis.

Wu Zetian complained twice, originally wanted to listen to Shangguan Wan'er's explanation, after all, she was already old, how could she have the energy to deal with many government affairs in person, and many things were handled by Shangguan Wan'er for her, to the public feelings of various places and local officials. Shangguan Wan'er knows everything about it, and without Wan'er, she, the empress, is really a little difficult.

But today she spoke, but she didn't see the always clever Wan'er reply, Wu Zetian glanced at her in surprise. I saw Wan'er standing by the imperial case, looking in a trance, clearly out of the spirit.

Wu Zetian grabbed the "Zhenshan River" dissatisfiedly and slapped it twice. Shangguan Wan'er was taken aback and quickly reined in. He asked, "What do you command?" ”

Wu Zetian said unhappily: "Wan'er, what's going on with you in the past two days, why do you always look like you're out of the way?" ”

Wan'er said in a panic: "Oh! Wan'er has caught a little cold in the past two days, her body is not well, and her energy is not good. ”

"Oh!" Wu Zetian said with relief: "In this case, you can go back and rest in a while, and you don't have to wait in front of the palace all the time." Let's take a look first, what's going on with these confused chapters in Chang'an Mansion? ”

Wan'er took the chapter, the first two copies she had seen, but one of the zuihou was Wu Zetian's court, and she had just sent it after arriving at the Wucheng Palace, Wan'er looked at the three copies of the chapter carefully, and said to Wu Zetian: "Liu Yitian has always been diligent as an official, honest and talented, and has a very good official reputation."

It's just that this people live on food, and once it comes to food, even a little wind and grass will inevitably cause a big commotion. If some profiteers take the opportunity to pretend to be shocking in order to make huge profits, how can those ignorant people have the ability to discern, and naturally add fuel to the fire, blindly rob, and raise prices.

If Wan'er is not mistaken, the grain reserves of Chang'an Mansion last year were very sufficient, and although the new grain has not yet been put into storage this year, after the consumption of last winter, there should be at least 16 cellars of grain in the 24 cellars in Chang'an. You can issue an order to order Chang'an Mansion to sell official food. If the people are willing to buy, we will open it up and sell it, and if the people have food at home, they will not panic, and the people's will will be certain, and the price of grain will naturally stabilize. ”

Wu Zetian nodded after hearing this and said, "Well, what Wan'er said is very reasonable!" Xiaohai! ”

The inner servant Xiaohai shook the dust, bowed down and stood in front of the imperial case, Wu Zetian said: "You go to the household department, and ask them to immediately check how much grain should be stored in Chang'an Mansion, and report back to me quickly!" ”

Xiao Hai received the commandment, and hurriedly went to the household department, Xiao Hai just left, a handsome young general in military uniform, arrived in front of the palace gate, and said loudly: "Yulin Zuolang will Yang Fan, there is something important to ask to see Bixia!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er let out a soft cry of "ah", and then knew that she was out of shape, and couldn't help but secretly go to look at Wu Zetian, but when she saw Wu Zetian looking at her strangely, her mind changed, and she quickly covered it up: "Wan'er almost forgot, no matter whether Chang'an is short of food or not, since the treasury has been moved, it still needs to transport grain from all over the country to make up for the shortage of the treasury." ”

Wu Zetian laughed and said, "You girl, what's all the fuss about, can't I even think of this?" First send an urgent edict to Chang'an Mansion, telling them to sell official food and settle people's hearts. As for the matter of raising food, it is enough to ask the prime ministers to do it. ”

Wan'er smiled shyly and responded, "Yes!" ”

Wu Zetian turned his head again and said, "Yang Fan has something to see me, call him in!" ”

Wan'er quietly stepped aside, her autumn-like eyes glancing affectionately at the door.

P: In the early morning, I sincerely ask for a monthly pass, and I recommend a ticket!!
