The horse taming law of Yiqu country?

Lu Yi's eyes were about to pop out, as the patriarch of the Lu clan, he controlled the war horse trade in Yiqu Country secretly, no one in the world knew better than Lu Yi the huge profits of the war horse trade of Yiqu Country, and the biggest reason for it was the excellent war horse of Yiqu Country, and the excellent Yiqu War Horse was because of the secret horse taming method of Yiqu Country, most of the forces in the world coveted the Yiqu horse taming method, but all the spying was basically in vain, just because Yiqu Country was very aware of the importance of their horse taming method, and it was kept extremely tightly, and there was almost no possibility of leaking secrets。

And looking at Wang Mang's consciousness, it is clear that he has figured out the horse taming method of Yiqu Country, otherwise he would not say such a thing, in this regard, Lu Yi was moved, Yiqu Country's private war horse transaction of only thirty percent can no longer make Lu Yi satisfied, what Lu Yi wants is all the war horse transactions of Yiqu Country, although Lu has always been stable, but for the pie sent to the door in the sky, if Lu does not eat it, it is not a fool.

Wang Mang only heard Lu Yi's slight gasp and knew that Lu Yi was moved, took a sip of tea, and then saw Lu Yi kowtow and said, "Your Majesty, there is something that must be confessed to Your Majesty." ”

"What's the matter?" Wang Mang said.

"A few years ago, when a disciple of the Lu family traveled in the Yiqu country, he happened to get in touch with the prince of the Yiqu country, when the prince was planning to seize the throne and continue to use the money, so he and the disciples of the Lu family did some Yiqu war horse transactions, all of which were not on the surface, and then when the prince became the king of Yiqu today, this kind of transaction did not stop but continued. Lu Yi kowtowed and said: "The minister has always wanted to confess to His Majesty, but he has no chance, and now it happens that His Majesty is coming to the minister's home, and the minister will inform His Majesty of this matter, and the minister is willing to accept His Majesty's punishment." ”

Wang Mang smiled, shook his head and said: "You are too worried, I already know about this matter, it is not a big deal, in this position, relying on the Yiqu Kingdom, people say that the mountains eat the mountains and the water and the water, your Lu family has a big business, and it is normal to have a little to do with the Yiqu Kingdom, after all, I believe that when the time comes, your Lu family will definitely break off the relationship with the Yiqu Kingdom and fight for the interests of Great Qin." ”

Lu Yi looked moved and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a gift about to be given to Your Majesty." ”

"What gift?" Wang Mang said.

"Your Majesty, please go out first. ”

"Exactly. ”

Lu Yi stood up and withdrew, beckoned the housekeeper to whisper, and then entered the room and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, wait a minute, the minister has already arranged it, and the gift will be delivered later." ”

Wang Mang's eyes flashed, and he had already vaguely guessed what Lu Yi was going to give him, but it was not easy to say it directly at this time, so he said, "You have a heart." ”

"The minister is His Majesty's courtier, everything is His Majesty's, His Majesty is in the minister's home, this is the blessing of the minister's life, even if the minister dedicates all his family wealth to His Majesty, the minister is very willing, but the minister also knows that some mundane things such as money and wealth really can't impress Your Majesty, so the minister specially prepared a gift for Your Majesty that Your Majesty is absolutely satisfied with after seeing it. Lu Yidao.

"Huh. Wang Mang nodded with a smile and said, "I'll talk about the gift later, I came here this time mainly for the affairs of Yiqu Kingdom." ”

As he spoke, Wang Mang stretched out his hand and pointed to Lu Bu on the side and said, "I know that every month the Lu clan has a batch of timber shipped to Yiqu Country, and this time when the Lu clan sent timber to Yiqu, I wanted Lu Bu to bring some people with me. ”

Lu Yi's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly said: "It is really a blessing for the Lu family to have this general with him. ”

Lu Yi has a blessing on the left and a blessing on the right, making Wang Mang a little embarrassed, Wang Mang didn't expect that as the most powerful family patriarch in the north of Great Qin, Lu Yi would be so sleek and sophisticated, this is not like the patriarch of a big family at all, but like a shrewd businessman, although the Lu family is indeed a merchant family on the mainland, but fundamentally speaking, the Lu family is still a scholar family, a nobleman of the Qin State, and some face is still needed as a nobleman.

Wang Mang has never seen someone like Lu Yi who doesn't want any face at all, but Wang Mang is also a thick-skinned person, since you Lu Yi is thick-skinned, then I will also listen to it with a thick skin.

Lu Yi carefully served Wang Mang, completely like a small guy, that was not the demeanor of the patriarch of a big family at all, even Lu Bu, Lu Yi is also kind words, when the leader serves, Lu Bu has no embarrassing thoughts, in his eyes, except for Wang Mang, everyone here is a waste, Lu Bu treats Lu Yi as a waste, and naturally does not care about Lu Yi's service, Lu Yi found through observation that Lu Bu is arrogant in his heart, and he can't figure out Lu Bu's origin, and he is even more cautious, after all, looking at Lu Bu's appearance with Wang Mang, it is clear that he is Wang Mang's absolute henchman, in this world, the emperor's henchman is even more terrible than the emperor himself, after all, the emperor himself has to save face when he does things, but he doesn't want face at all when he does things.

After a while, the housekeeper of the Lu Mansion appeared at the door with a box in his hand, knelt on the ground and crawled all the way to Wang Mang's feet, holding the box high above his head, Lu Yi pointed to the box and said, "Your Majesty, this is a gift from the minister to Your Majesty." ”

Wang Mang's nose moved slightly, he smelled a smell of blood, knowing that the box was probably the same as he guessed, nodded and motioned for Lu Yi to open the box.

Lu Yi stepped forward to open the box, and inside the box was a human head that had just been cut off and was dead, Wang Mang's expression remained unchanged, he had already guessed that it was a human head or something like that, and said lightly: "What does this mean?"

Lu Yi looked at Wang Mang's face without changing color, a trace of discoloration flashed in his eyes, and he pointed to the head and said: "Your Majesty, this is the brother-in-law of the king of Yiqu, who is responsible for the war horse trade between the Yiqu country and the Lu family, and is stationed in the Lu Mansion. ”

"Why not. Wang Mang shook his head and said: "After all, you and he have been friends for many years, so why make trouble to the point of killing someone." ”

"Your Majesty, this is the minister's determination. Lu Yi kowtowed: "The minister is His Majesty's courtier, His Majesty is the minister's heaven, His Majesty's words are the guidance of the minister's work, in fact, the minister has long wanted to cut off contact with Yiqu these years, after all, as His Majesty's courtier, there is some reluctance between the minister and Yiqu in private and it is really not good, but unfortunately there has been no chance, this time His Majesty is ready to do something to Yiqu, and the minister, as His Majesty's courtier, has the unshirkable responsibility, so he will dedicate this person's head to His Majesty, but it is a pity that this person resisted before he died, otherwise he would have been captured alive and sent to the battlefield to sacrifice the flag for our army. ”

Wang Mang looked at Lu Yi, and said in his heart that this Lu Yi is still really ruthless, this Yiqu King's wife and brother don't know how many years he has lived in Lincheng, and now he was killed by Lu Yi just because he was useless, which is really sad, but this person's head is also Lu Yi's name for himself, and as Lu Yi said, if someone kills, the connection between the Lu family and the Yiqu Kingdom will be broken, and it can even be said that there is no incompatibility with the Yiqu Kingdom, which is also the purpose of Wang Mang's visit to Lincheng, but Lu Yi thought of the front, and as soon as he found Wang Mang's goal, he killed the person as soon as he found out, so as not to fall Wang Mang's tongue, if Wang Mang guessed well, Lu Yi is likely to give Wang Mang some votes。

Sure enough, without letting Wang Mang wait for a long time, Lu Yi continued: "Your Majesty, in order to support the imperial court in attacking the unrighteous country, the minister is willing to donate all the proceeds from the war horse exchange between the Lu family and the Yiqu country over the years to the imperial court, please Your Majesty must accept it, this is the Lu family's loyalty to the imperial court, loyalty to Your Majesty." ”

"Why not. Wang Mang sighed and said, "How much?"

Lu Yi was originally thinking about how to deal with Wang Mang's don't, how to stage a few advances and retreats with Wang Mang, but he didn't expect Wang Mang to ask him directly how much money he had after sighing, which directly made Lu Yi stunned, and said in his heart, Why are you so eager to know how much money the Great Qin Emperor wants, when is the lack of money in the imperial court to this extent, Lu Yi opened his mouth a few times, and finally said slowly:" The transaction between the Lu family and the Yiqu Kingdom did not last for many years, and the proceeds obtained by the minister were roughly estimated before, about more than two million silver, and the ministers donated all of them, and then took out some of the money from the minister's sale of trees, and raised three million silver for the imperial court's military salary, which is the loyalty of the Lu family to the imperial court, please Your Majesty must accept it. ”

Is this the meaning that if I don't accept it, I won't accept the Lu family's loyalty to the imperial court?

Wang Mang's expression was a little strange, and he said in his heart If you double this money, maybe I still believe that your Lu family is really loyal, but unfortunately it is only three million silver, but it is the income of the Lu family's sale of war horses for more than ten years, when I really don't know what your Lu family has done in private, Wang Mang was about to get angry, but he heard a burst of laughter coming from outside, but it was Lu Yao who ran over with light steps, knelt on the ground, and said with a smile: "The people's daughter Lu Yao has seen Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty." ”

Seeing Lu Yao, Wang Mang put down the hand that he was about to raise, glanced at Lu Yi coldly, and then said: "I am so familiar with whose voice is so familiar, it turned out to be Lu Yao, since Nanyang said goodbye back then, I really haven't seen you for some days, I saw Lu Yuan before, I heard that you went back to Lincheng, I originally planned to meet you this time, after all, I was also a comrade-in-arms in the same trench back then." ”

"Your Majesty can remember the people's daughter, it is the blessing of the people's daughter, the people's daughter never thought that the wise and martial young man would be my Emperor His Majesty of Daqin, to be able to fight with Your Majesty, no, it is the blessing of the people's daughter to be able to fight for Your Majesty, this time to see Your Majesty again, the people's daughter is so happy, if there is a rudeness, Your Majesty must not punish the people's daughter. Lu Yao said with a smile.

"A mouthful of a people's girl, I don't feel comfortable listening, how should you call yourself, there is no need to be so restrained in front of me. Wang Mang smiled and said: "I came in a hurry this time, and I didn't bring you any gifts, just as Lu Yi was about to give me a gift, and he will make up for me." ”

Lu Yi smiled wryly on the side, where did he owe Wang Mang any gifts, it was obvious that Wang Mang felt that he gave less money, and originally planned to ask him for money again, but it happened that Lu Yao came over and messed up everything, and now Wang Mang asked him to pay for Lu Yao to buy gifts, which was an opportunity to knock it.

Lu Yi understood in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "The minister must transfer that gift to Lu Yao, and he can get a gift from His Majesty, which is the blessing of Lu Yao's life." ”

A lifetime of blessings?

Wang Mang shook his head in his heart, he had heard this sentence many times, his ears were about to hear the cocoon, Wang Mang's eyes fell on Lu Yao again, now Lu Yao is dressed as a little daughter at home, her appearance is gorgeous and delicate, it looks like although the makeup is simple but she has been carefully cleaned up, it seems that this girl came to see her after picking it up, Wang Mang knew in her heart that as early as when she was in Nanyang, Lu Yao had already secretly felt sorry for herself, but Wang Mang was too lazy to provoke too many women and didn't want to delay Lu Yao, so he kept thinking that he didn't know, this meeting was originally expected by Wang Mang, Wang Mang originally planned to make it clear to Lu Yao, but look at Lu Yao like this now, I guess it's not clear.

Sighing secretly, Wang Mang looked at Lu Yi and said, "Boss, I haven't seen Lu Yao for many days, and I just have something to say. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Lu Yi kowtowed, and the breath in his heart was finally relieved, knowing that the Lu family's catastrophe had been avoided with Lu Yao's help, if it weren't for Wang Mang's face in Lu Yao, Lu Yi felt that Wang Mang was probably going to bite off a piece of meat on him.

As for whether it is appropriate for Wang Mang and Lu Yao to be in the same room alone, Lu Yi just didn't see it, and he didn't have the slightest sense of shame that a big family should have, after Lu Yi withdrew, Lu Yao looked at His Majesty with some grievances on his face, and said, "Does Your Majesty think that Lu Yao appeared too quickly." ”

"How so. Wang Mang said with a smile.

"Actually, the words of His Majesty and Grandpa, Lu Yao had already heard them outside, Lu Yao didn't want to come out, but he had to come out, because Lu Yao didn't want the relationship between His Majesty and the Lu family to be too stiff. Lu Yao looked at Wang Mang and said seriously: "Lu Yao knows that Your Majesty may think that with Your Majesty's ability, the Lu clan is not enough, but Your Majesty, the Lu clan can stand in Lin City for countless years is not without background, Lu Yao knows that His Majesty is strong, but he doesn't want His Majesty to have any accidents, I hope Your Majesty can forgive Lu Yao's presumptuousness." ”

Wang Mang looked at Lu Yao, he knew that Lu Yao was a smart mushroom girl, and he had vaguely guessed that Lu Yao was likely to deliberately interrupt the conversation between himself and Lu Yi, and now that Lu Yao was so honest, Wang Mang shook his head and said, "You are too worried." ”

"Nope. Lu Yao shook his head and said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, Cihang Jingzhai's people are now in Lincheng, if Your Majesty and Grandpa fall out, Grandpa will definitely turn around and agree to Cihang Jingzhai's conditions, then Lu Yao is afraid that Your Majesty will ......"

"Is this what Lu Yi asked you to tell me?" Wang Mang's expression suddenly turned cold, and he stared at Lu Yao coldly, like looking at a stranger.

"No, none of this has anything to do with grandpa. Lu Yao looked at Wang Mang with a sad face, suddenly pulled open his sleeves, revealing a large area of snow white, and cried: "If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, I will open my heart now and show it to Your Majesty." ”
