Chapter 418: Credit
The New Year is approaching, and Shen Lixing returns to Beijing.
Because of the temple fair in the capital, the people in the surrounding towns who missed the opening of Cathay Pacific last year did not want to miss the temple fair this time, and even the people from more remote towns also poured into the capital.
The Spring Festival temple fair on the Guoan side was held in a half-tone, and now it can't even be barely supported. They thought that they didn't spend much anyway, and if they couldn't do it, they couldn't do it, and their negative attitude, although it didn't bring them huge losses on the surface, it caused irreparable damage to their reputation.
As the saying goes, painting a tiger is not an anti-dog, and Guoan's existing business is like a frog in warm water, which is slowly shrinking at an invisible and untouchable rate.
Shen Lixing entered the palace first as usual, and the emperor had just finished reading this month's financial statements, and the abundant data in the accounts made him happy. The budget for this year has been completed in the first ten months, and the benefits of the winter month and the wax month are only more and not less. Hearing that Shen Lixing was back, the emperor hurriedly called him in and said, "Yantang, can you see a lot of traffic in Beijing?" ”
Shen Lixing said knowingly: "The minister has seen it, the emperor appoints people on the basis of merit, the court and the central government are united, and the government decrees are unimpeded. After speaking, he also bowed to the emperor in a proper manner.
The emperor laughed and said, "Yantang, I'm not here to listen to your flattery today!" ”
Shen Lixing grinned happily and said: "The minister has never been flattering, if the emperor regards himself as weak, the minister has nothing to say." ”
After the gossip of the monarch and the minister, he got to the point. The emperor said with his hand on his jaw: "Longmen has been safe for more than two years, and the army has been peaceful. ”
Shen Lixing said with a smile: "Isn't it expected that everyone will be able to return to Xiang'an without incident, could it be that the emperor is happy to see the waves in the army?" ”
The emperor raised his eyebrows and said: "Water is impermanent, and soldiers are impermanent." The army has stopped like this, and I muttered a little in my heart! ”
In recent years, Longmen has also crossed the river by feeling the stones in cultivating military talents, and Shen Lixing has also heard a lot of strange words from Gao Shiman, who has mixed them into military education, and often assigns the red and blue armies to face each other, and later found that this is of great benefit to improving everyone's military quality, so it has also formed a fixed training and promotion model in the army. All along, the emperor has also acquiesced to this mode of learning and training, why is he muttering again today?
Shen Lixing thought of Princess Xiangcheng, and didn't know if he was thinking too much, so he only said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the minister heard that the ancient Shanggong was good at curing the disease, and Bian Que saw that Cai Huangong's story "Childish Fun Collection" is included, and I know it to all children in Daxia; The sergeants are not as greedy and stubborn as in the past, and the whole army is studying and training hard, competing to read and write, and the study of the art of war and strategy is no longer the patent of the children of famous families. ”
The emperor grinned and said, "I really didn't mistake you. ”
"If the emperor is not at ease, how about Longmen inviting you to join the army to observe the biggest confrontation between the red and blue armies this year?" Shen Lixing's eyes flashed with confidence and pride, and the emperor said without thinking about it: "Yes." ”
Without waiting for Shen Lixing to answer, the emperor continued: "The cost of the Dragon Gate is huge, and the household department has made a lot of contributions. After speaking, he looked at him with a smile, and his heart moved, the little woman in the family was not the grain envoy of the household. But he said: "The emperor is wise, the four seas are flat and the warehouse is full, the business is developed and the world is safe, which is really a blessing for all the people." ”
The emperor smiled, changed his sitting posture and said: "I remember that a long time ago, Shiman said to the little woman of the Yao family, known as 'the swan song of the historian, the rhyme of the separation', in which Taishi Gong mentioned that the development of industrial and commercial society is related to the lifeblood of the country's politics and military, and special attention should be paid to it. At that time, I only felt that there was some truth in this, and over the years, Shiman had worked hard to make money in different ways, and I always thought she was a little money fan. ”
Shen Lixing heard the emperor use the word "exhausted", and he was stunned.
"I once heard the king of Qi say that Shiman often whispered in their ears that this wealth was taken from the people and should be used for the people, and that she, as an official of the imperial court, should serve the people. But every time I saw the report submitted to the desk by the household department, I agreed with her words in my heart. Especially recently, I thought about her from agriculture to business, and she was silent and worried about me for nearly half of it, which really moved and made me both moved and happy", the emperor was a little moved when he said it, and Shen Lixing was also a little touched when he listened, has Man'er done so many things for everyone over the years?
The words that the emperor said seemed to be a little untouchable, but Shen Lixing understood that the emperor was making the greatest affirmation of Man'er. From agriculture to business, these four words have explained everything.
The hall was silent for a while, and the emperor glanced at Shen Lixing, who lowered his head, and said: "I heard that Shiman held a temple fair, which attracted tourists from remote towns. I read that newspaper now, and I can't just look at those all kinds of advertisements. ”
"Yes. The emperor is in the prime of life, how can he talk about old age? Shen Lixing remained silent.
"Hehe......"
The emperor was subdued and took Shen Lixing out of the palace.
Because the Chinese New Year is approaching, there are a lot of people who play New Year's goods, and the smooth development of the temple fair has brought a large number of orders to Cathay Pacific.
Gao Shiman pointed to the "The Wine-colored Life of Emperor Liu Cong of the Han Zhaowu Emperor" published in the lower right corner of the Times and smiled: "You wrote it? Why are you interested in writing about this now? ”
Jing Xian glanced at her lightly and said, "Isn't this what you told me, I just polished and processed it, many people like to watch this, you must like it too." ”
"I saw it all in the history of the wild, and I don't know if it's true, but you really submitted it?" She likes to talk to Jing Xian about historical figures and events in her spare time, whether it is a sage or a lewdness, she knows a little, and she often froths in front of him. She can't keep her mouth idle, and she will be uncomfortable if she doesn't say it.
"It doesn't matter if he's true or not, some people say that he can't leave ten, why doesn't anyone say you, right", Jing Xian knows Gao Shiman's temperament, and is willing to accompany her to talk nonsense.
"Jing Xianjun, how much manuscript fee did you charge? The shredded noodles in Xifengtang downstairs are delicious, why don't you invite me to eat? She looked at him with a grin.
"Serve my cousin, no manuscript fee." Jing Xian glanced at her proudly.
When Gao Shiman heard it, he suddenly remembered a yellow joke he had seen before, saying that it was an advertisement for Mommy in the night club, called "Welcome to it", so he couldn't help but laugh.
Jing Xian was inexplicably laughed by her, and knocked on her forehead: "What are you laughing at, let's listen to it." ”
"No, no, I can't tell you this......" Gao Shiman stroked his forehead and laughed breathlessly.
Jing Xian faced the entrance, just in time to see Shen Lixing and them coming up, he pretended not to see her, and deliberately teased her: "If you don't say it, if you don't say it, I will sue my brother-in-law, saying that you bully Hong'er every day." ”
The emperor glanced sideways at Shen Lixing meaningfully, Shen Lixing's face darkened, so several people consciously stood at the entrance.
Gao Shiman laughed happily, and stopped laughing when he heard this: "How can I have?" ”
Jing Xian deliberately said loudly: "Do you dare to say that you haven't? That day, Hong'er just grabbed your hair, you beat his hand red, he cried so pitifully, but you turned a deaf ear, whether you are his own mother or not! ”
"Hey, he didn't take it seriously, I killed him in pain, but I just hit him twice, and you doubt that he is not my own! You feel so sorry for him, I think you are closer than his own father! Gao Shiman saw him raise his voice, and not to be outdone, he also raised his voice.
The emperor only felt that every time he saw Gao Shiman, he couldn't help but be happy, and he looked at Shen Lixing, who had a black face, and saw that he was glaring at his daughter-in-law, so he pursed his lips and smiled.
Jing Xian blushed when she heard her say that she was closer than Hong'er's father, Shen Lixing was standing opposite him, looking at his black face, he was afraid of provoking suspicion, and he was thinking about how to deal with it, but unfortunately his mouth was faster than his brain, and he suddenly said: "You just don't want me to feel better, right?" ”
Gao Shiman chuckled: "If you are well, your heart is like a knife." ”
Jing Xian gritted his teeth and said: "Good words are warm in three winters, and bad words are hurtful and cold in June." ”
"Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black!" Gao Shiman shook her head, she hinted that she learned from Jing Xian.
"To insult an opponent is to despise yourself", no matter what, Jing Xian is also a little Mensa, and now Shen Lixing is watching the battle from the sidelines, how can he be willing to lose.
"Master Yi's long skills to control Yi, you little barbarian!" Gao Shiman was proud, no matter how high Jing Xian's IQ was, he had more than a thousand years of knowledge essence in his head.
"Brother-in-law made you change from a woman to a woman, and Hong'er made you change from a woman to a tiger!" Jing Xian used what Gao Shiman had said to deal with her, completely ignoring the fact that everyone in the audience was stunned by this seemingly illogical battle of words.
"Hmph, where there is a will, there is a way, the tiger mother breaks the cocoon, and the world of men belongs to me after all!" Gao Shiman began to glare at him, and if she continued like this, she really couldn't bear it.
"Tao Li doesn't say anything, the bottom is self-contained, your skin is getting thicker and thicker! When I go back to Luoyang, I will tell my grandfather that you are an out-and-out mother! Jing Xian shouted.
Gao Shiman is not afraid, she has never even seen what her grandfather looks like: "Go, go, Wang Shi Bei will set the Central Plains Day, and don't forget to tell Nai Weng about the family sacrifice." ”
These words are suspected of being cursed, Jing Xian glared at her and said: "If the father is not the father, there is no way, and if the son is not the son, there is no filial piety!" This is to remind her that what she said just now was suspected of deceiving her ancestors.
Gao Shiman will also come over, she made a knife with her palm, and slashed at his left shoulder while Jing Xian was unprepared: "No matter how high the martial arts are, I am afraid of kitchen knives!" ”
Jing Xian was attacked, and hurriedly leaned back on the chair and said, "It hurts!" The ancients can be defeated, but not conquered! ”
Gao Shiman is happy, the lines of the two of them can be made into a movie, and they are still coming? She stepped forward and pinched Jing Xian's cheek and said, "Do you accept it?" Convinced or not! ”
Because of Shen Lixing's presence, Jing Xian didn't dare to fight back, but the more he struggled, the more painful it became, so he had to cry and say with a sad face: "Don't sister, it hurts...... I was wrong, okay, no. ”
Gao Shiman was extremely proud: "Tsk, aren't you smart, aren't you clever as a spring, if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight, don't bow your head, the crown will fall!" Don't shed tears, the enemy will laugh, hahaha......"
"Man'er!" Shen Lixing couldn't stand it anymore, and her smile was too infectious.
