"How many days has Yi Ning been there, and there is no news yet?" Bai Xining didn't ask, but Gu Zi'an spoke first.

"Back to the king, there is no news yet."

Bai Xining smiled, "Nothing will happen to this girl, Your Majesty Lao is worried." She flicked the walnut in her hand, and Mr. Short Li Ke sat across from him, and the two seemed to be quietly waiting for a good show.

The three of them sat opposite each other, and Bai Xining took a small walnut from the disc and presented it.

She added: "It's been a few days, and there has been no news yet. I can't wait, maybe it's because we're too careful. ”

"Beiyang is not monolithic." Gu Zi'an snorted.

In the past few days, his mood has not been good, and the new policy has offended the nobles of Beiyang, and has been opposed by the government and the opposition. In the uproar, Gu Zi'an had some powerlessness, but he knew that if he wanted to enrich the country and strengthen the army, the land and fertile land were the first step that must be reformed. On the temple, Li Ke was also attacked by everyone, and the newly appointed prime minister was already burdened with everyone's expectations. Who knew that so many incidents would be born, making people want to eat them alive.

Li Kegang stood on top of the court and argued one by one, but he couldn't shake the mountain in the hearts of some old ministers.

The crowd was not convinced.

Both public and private land were taxed according to the mu, and the pioneer land that was so hidden in the hands of the aristocracy was exposed to the eye, and the extra tax than in previous years made these nobles unwilling.

Angry words fell like snowflakes in December. Both of them were struggling in it, and although Li Ke was not panicking these days, he was afraid that Gu Zi'an would retreat. But the newly appointed King of Beiyang gave himself an incomparably firm answer, so that he could continue his claims.

"The old law is not guilty, why not find the law?"

"The world is not governed together, and the legislation is legislated at that time, and the rites are made according to the matter."

In the face of the indignation of the crowd, Gu Zi'anzhi left a sentence: "If the land declines, the people will not move." ”

Open the door and share the goods with the people. The land was transferred from the nobility to the common people, and the common people paid different taxes in the face of barren or rich land. The land could be bought, sold, and leased, and the peasants could get into it for the rest of their lives, except for taxes, and the rest of the production belonged to them.

The people are stable, and the country is rich and strong.

When Bai Xining heard about the court, but he never intervened, he saw Gu Zi'an coming back from the hall every day, and he knew what was going on. Now that the sun has stabilized, the lord of Fenghua County has returned to his territory after saying goodbye. But the storm was coming, and Gu Zi'an set out to investigate the collusion with Yan Rong that was secretly investigated one by one, tearing open a dark crack in this huge country.

"What, the girl is not playing chess today?" Li Ke saw Bai Xining sitting there and asked.

"If you lose to Mr., you will show your clumsy skills." She smiled.

"What about the king?"

"Please, sir." He stepped down from the desk and sat down on the rosewood chess table. Black and white chess pieces, dotted around. Bai Xi quietly looked at the man's serious appearance, and he faintly heard birdsong and wind chimes outside the window. The smell of sandalwood lingered in the empty study, and every roll of paper was tainted with the fragrance.

One black and one white, step by step.

Halfway through the chess piece, Gu Zi'an suddenly laughed, "Mr. Bu's hand is a good game, I lost to Mr.!" He rubbed a black spot in his hand, and there was an irrepressible light in his eyes.

Li Ke pursed his lips, his shoulders trembled, and his heavy robe shook three times in a row, "This is also the first time that the minister has used such a layout, and he originally wanted to sneak around, but he was helpless to be seen by the king at a glance." ”

"Seeing what the clues are, the widow is also worthy of being dragged and walked in the chess game of Mr." Although Gu Zi'an lost the chess game, he was in a cheerful mood.

Bai Xining next to him covered his mouth and smiled: "If you miss one move, you will lose the whole game." But the king has Mr. on the side, one move, it is ten moves, a hundred moves, what if it is wrong? ”

When Li Ke heard this, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Zhang Ji for a while, the old man in Beiyang who had turned the tide. Zhang Ji originally resigned, but now that Gu Zi'an has ascended the throne, he wants to invite him back to the temple, but Zhang Ji is unwilling. In the past few days, I have some cold symptoms and rest at home. He visited his home several times and asked if his new law was appropriate. The old man's eyes were shining, and he only said, "Please." ”

Li Ke kept it in mind, and in this way, Beiyang seemed to have become his only home.

Outside the door, there was a knock and the sound of swift footsteps.

Bai Xining stood up, his eyes glowing, "Is someone back?" ”

"Your Majesty." General Wei Yong's familiar voice sounded outside.

"Come in, please!"

General Wei Yong walked in and arched his fists with both hands: "Your Majesty." ”

"General, please, how is the front line?"

"The fish is hooked. The scout spy returned, and the Yan Rong army moved north. It is estimated that in the gathering to the Guanshan generation. ”

Gu Zi'an's eyes suddenly flashed a trace of pride that no one would check out, but he was caught by Bai Xining. In front of the sand table of Gu Zi'an and General Wei Yong's smooth walkway, he pointed to a mountain range and asked, "What, is this here?" ”

"This is here."

"Check it out! Who leaked the news, it is better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let go of one. However, it is not allowed to cause turmoil in the hearts of the army, and it is enough to say that they have returned home due to illness. He smiled. At the beginning, I wanted to use false intelligence to find out whether there were any spies in the palace in the army and who the spies were. Now there are eyebrows.

General Wei Yong said: "The minister saw the envoy of Yan Rong today, but he seems to be in a good mood. ”

"If you get important news, there must be a heavy reward, can you be in a bad mood?" Gu Zi'an asked rhetorically. When he said this, he was suddenly stunned, "General, slow down, the Yan Rong spies in this army can stay, and they will be of great use in the future." ”

Wei Yong thought about it and suddenly understood. If false news is passed on in the future, it is not a good way to let Yan Rong fall into embarrassment alone. "The king is wise!" He knew it well, although he didn't get along with Gu Zi'an for a long time, but he became more and more tacit.

"If it disturbs the morale of the army, it should be killed or killed." Gu Zi paused, "General, spread the news that Beiyang has withdrawn." Let's not accompany Yan Rong to play this fishing game. I have another matter here, and I would like to ask my husband to take a look. "He carefully explained the small city that Meng Yining and Le Yi had visited,"

Originally, a hundred years ago, there were princes who plotted to rebel but the East Window incident occurred, in order to bury the evidence, so the copper mine and weapons were blocked, and a group of workers who opened the mountain and excavated the soil starved to death in the cave. I don't know how this secret was inquired into by Yan Rong, compared to finding this rare copper mine. Yan Rong has not started a war for so many years, because the mine has long been dug up, and now he has extended his hand to Beiyang. Examine! Is there a shortcut to Yanrong? As for the copper mine weapon, it was transported to the soldiers, and it was long and majestic. ”

"Yes."
