Chapter 131: Love

On this day, I heard the escort girl say that the noble man's mansion has arrived, she secretly looked around, although the sparse people on the street are dressed simply, not as prosperous as Jiangnan, but they are dressed as Han people, it seems that this adult is not a Hu clan, a little comforted, but doubly frightened for the coming doom. Although she was born noble, she was born with a stubborn temperament, and she couldn't pull back the nine cows that she recognized, otherwise she wouldn't have had a tryst with Cai Yu when her sister was seriously ill. Although the Zoroastrian people searched her body for sharp things such as golden hairpins that could kill herself, she was determined that if the powerful minister wanted to use force, she would bite her tongue and die.

Zhou Hou gently tried to bite his tongue with silver teeth, and made a final struggle with the imaginary wicked, and suddenly the sedan curtain was lifted, Zhou Hou was taken aback, and almost bit the tip of his tongue seriously, but listened to the servant woman who was waiting for him said in a rough voice: "The lord asks the lady to move in." ”

The sun pierced people and couldn't open their eyes, Zhou Hou hesitated for a moment, moved the lotus step lightly, followed the servant woman into the inner house, and came to the flower hall with anxiety, but saw that the two men were already standing and waiting with a smile on their faces, and when she came in, the one who was wearing the general's robe immediately bowed down and saluted: "Weichen see the queen of the country." When he looked up, Zhou Hou saw that it was Wu Yingying, the commander of the Genshin Impact Guard who was deeply trusted by Cai Yu, but seeing him looking at him with a smile on his face, Zhou Hou only felt that his face was flushed, and for a while he felt contempt, humiliation, and anger came to his heart like a mountain and a sea, such a shameless maniac who bullied the king, her chest rose and fell, and her breath was short.

Wu Yingying saw her body trembling slightly standing on the ground, she couldn't speak, thinking that it would be easy for Zhou Hou to get out of trouble, and her heart was excited and irrepressible, after all, there is a difference between men and women, in order to avoid gossip and gossip, after seeing the ceremony, he said gently: "The queen of the country is tired of traveling and driving, please rest first." After speaking, she gestured to the servant woman to take Zhou Hou to the inner courtyard, and Huang Wen had already been informed by the maid, and she would settle down and take care of Zhou Hou well.

After Zhou Hou left, Wang Yu smiled and said: "Brother Wu's golden house is beautiful, and it is gratifying." Seeing that Wu Yingying's brows were slightly furrowed, he changed the topic and said, "The conditions I promised have been fulfilled." The Holy Church set up a Zoroastrian shrine in Lanzhou to spread the teachings, and whether Brother Wu was willing to abide by the previous promise. ”

Wu Yingying said: "As long as you don't violate the law, it's done, but it's not possible to give tax exemption to various temples and sacrifices like the previous dynasty." The court regulations he said were the "Tang Laws and Regulations" of the previous dynasty at this time.

Wang Yu was very settled, secretly scolded Wu Yingying for being greedy for money, and said with a faint smile: "This is natural, then Yu thanked Brother Wu on behalf of the believers." The two looked at each other and smiled, for some reason, Wang Yu felt some regret in his heart for not defending Wu Yingying in front of the emperor, and when he left, he arched his hand and said: "When I entered the city today, I heard that Brother Wu presided over the law of granting land in Lanzhou, which is a good thing that is beneficial to the people's livelihood, but this kind of move to win the hearts of the people should be done by Renjun, and the people and ministers will commit a big taboo for it, Brother Wu, be cautious!"

Wu Yingying listened to his sincere words, his heart moved slightly, and he thanked him: "Secret power, thank you." Raising his eyes and looking at the empty street, he sighed: "It's just that life is like a white horse, if you look left and right and think about it, I'm afraid that I won't be able to do a few things in the end, I am now poor in the twilight, and I have to go against the grain." ”

Wang Yu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and said with a smile: "If you do something perverse, then the princes of the world are not grabbing the land with their heads." Both of them laughed, and Wang Yu said: "Brother Wu, if one day we are hostile, can we still be my friends?" Wu Yingying smiled and said: "Each is his master, but I will always be your friend." Secrets, take care. Wang Yu also felt that he was a bit of a mother-in-law, and he gave up, Wu Yingying didn't know what he was for, he was for the Zhongxing Holy Sect, but for the cause of saving all the people in the world, how could it be like this, Brother Wu was right, life is short. Thinking about it, his feet sped up, and he couldn't wait to establish a Zoroastrian temple in Lanzhou.

This old friend parted, but the inner courtyard was a sister. Zhou Hou was already frightened when he saw Wu Yingying at first sight, and he was even more shocked when he saw Huang Baoyi again. She thought that Huang Wen had encountered an accident in the chaotic army, but who knew that she was safe in this Lanzhou city, and the servant woman called her "master mother"!

Although Zhou Hou has lived in the deep palace for a long time, his mind is extremely sensitive, from the front hall to the backyard, in just a hundred steps, he guessed that Wu Yingying had become the master of this side, probably similar to the feudal town, otherwise no one would be willing to take the risk of offending Emperor Song and send himself to please him. And this servant woman called Huang Baoyi the main mother, which means that Huang Wen has become a hero of Wu. According to the etiquette system, Huang Wen has been counted as Cai Yu's concubine after taking the throne, and this Wu hero actually disregarded the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers, ** concubine. When she was in the palace, Zhou Hou had a very good friendship with Huang Wen, otherwise she would not have risked sharing favors, and she was the only one among many palace maids to be recommended as a concubine. She had a preconceived reluctance in her heart to think that Huang Wen and Wu Yingying had a personal affair for a long time, but it was caused by Wu Yingying taking advantage of the fall of Jinling to rob the beautiful women, and at this moment, she saw that Huang Wen had shame and joy in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, but she was afraid that she had fallen in love with this traitor.

Huang Wen saw Zhou Hou, her pretty face was slightly red, and she said, "Huang Wen pays a visit to the queen." ”

Zhou Hou held back her tears, helped her up, and said softly: "Jiangnan has fallen, you and I are the people who will live for the rest of our lives after the catastrophe, don't mention the word queen again, just call each other sisters." ”

Huang Wen nodded, she was originally worried that Empress Zhou would blame herself for eloping with Wu Yingying, but seeing that she was so considerate, but it was not easy to explain, she could only whisper and ask for warmth, just like in the Jinling Palace that day, she treated Empress Zhou with respect, who knew that this would provoke the thoughts of Empress Zhou's homeland, thinking that her lover Cai Yu fell into Bianliang as a prisoner, life and death were uncertain, and she couldn't help but fall into the hands of Wu Yingying, a traitor, and couldn't help crying.

After the frost fell, the days became colder and colder, and although it had not yet snowed, as soon as the cold snap from Siberia began to invade northern China, the harsh and cruel winter officially began for the people of the agricultural era. In the city of Lanzhou, the households who have just been allocated the fields have begun to make some simple farm tools spontaneously, and some are anxious and have even sorted out the land.

Whether it is a military household or a civilian household, they are full of longing for the future, and even forget that Lanzhou is just a grain of sand in the turbulent times, a candle in the storm, and at the end of the five dynasties, northern China has become a place where all forces compete for the deer, and a little turbulent waves can easily roll the Lanzhou boat into the sea.

At this moment, a dark cloud unconsciously shrouded the sky over Lanzhou.

"We can't buy food in Guanzhong Province and Hedong Province. Chase reported to Wu Yingying with a sad face, "Those big grain merchants obviously have goods, but as soon as they hear that we are from Lanzhou, they won't sell them." "The vast majority of merchants in this era were tightly controlled by the government, especially the grain merchants, not to mention the policy of economic blockade of the entire Northern Han Dynasty in the Song State, even within the Han Kingdom, Liu Jiyuan decided to detain Lanzhou, and Guo Wuwei, the prime minister who had already had a grudge with the Tuhun army, immediately issued an order to the local government to strictly prohibit the flow of grain and grass into Lanzhou, not only that, but even several county governments close to Lanzhou will escort the excess grain and grass to Jinyang, in case the Lanzhou army sends troops to loot, and at the same time Liu Jiyuan will reduce the Lanzhou army's will to reduce half of the grain and grass of the Lanzhou army to be implemented flexibly, as usual to provide the forage needed for the Lanzhou war horses, but there is not a single grain。 Although Wu Yingying carried a lot of grain and grass when he entered Lanzhou, after redeeming more than 10,000 Han people, Lanzhou's grain depot suddenly became tight, not to mention leaving seeds for the beginning of spring next year.
