Chapter 1072: Initial Appearance
Biquge.inforeadx;? After talking to Tang Ling for a long time, seeing her showing tiredness, Shangguan Xiu left the dormitory and went out of the palace, and he went to the entrance of the Shura Hall in Xijing.
At present, a large number of people who have taken refuge have poured into Xijing, dragging their families with them, some people live in inns, some people have bought houses from the hands of the people of Xijing, but there are many more people who have nowhere to live and sleep on the streets, and these people need to be resettled in time.
The imperial court is now almost paralyzed, and the heavy responsibility of settling the people naturally falls on the head of the Shura Hall,
When Shangguan Xiu arrived at the entrance of the hall, there were people inside and outside the hall, including officials from the court, nobles, and businessmen.
They came to Shuratang, of course, hoping that Shuratang could come forward to coordinate and help them find a suitable place to live, so that they could live in the outer city outside the city wall, which was not in line with their identity, but in the inner city within the city wall, it had reached the level of every inch of land, and a dilapidated house of only a few dozen square meters could be sold for thousands of taels of silver, even for merchants with thousands of dollars, it was difficult to bear.
Shura Tang really has an effort to coordinate, and it works, outsiders need thousands of taels of silver to buy a house, by Shura Tang came forward, the people often sell it for a few hundred taels of silver, of course, Shura Tang also promised the people, will help them build bigger houses in the outer city to live,
Yuan Mu, Qin Chuan, Meng Tian and others were all seriously injured, they didn't have the energy to deal with these, and their bodies couldn't support them.
For Tang Mingzhu's ability, Yuan Mu, Qin Chuan, and Meng Tian have all been taught, when they went to Beijing, Tang Mingzhu has been living in the Zhenguo Mansion, which is the main hall of the Shura Hall, and it is also the place where Yuan Mu, Qin Chuan, Meng Tian and others work, at that time, Tang Mingzhu often helped them to help, and frequently contacted the affairs of the Shura Hall, Yuan Mu and others also liked this flexible mind, clever thinking, The smart little girl is deliberately cultivated, and from time to time she hands over some less important matters to deal with alone, and Tang Mingzhu did not disappoint them, none of the things she dealt with alone were not completed well,
Because of this foundation, now Tang Mingzhu proposed to take over the affairs of Shura Hall on behalf of Yuan Mu, Qin Chuan, and Mengtian, and the three of them did not object, they knew Tang Mingzhu's strength, but the others in Shura Hall did not understand,
Although Tang Mingzhu was born noble and was a member of the royal family, after all, he was only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child, and how could people rest assured that she would manage the complicated affairs of Xijingtang.
At first, people still had some complaints, but after only two days, those questioning voices gradually disappeared, and no one in the hall objected to Tang Mingzhu.
Shangguan Xiu walked into the lobby at the entrance of the hall, and saw a little girl wearing a simple cyan skirt and clear soup noodles sitting behind the wide table.
On the table, the documents are piled up, and they are not chaotic, the dozen stacks of documents on Tang Mingzhu's left are all unprocessed, and the piles of documents on the right hand are all high, which she has already instructed.
Seeing Shangguan Xiu walk in, the Shura Hall personnel who were waiting on the left and right were just about to salute and greet them, Shangguan Xiu waved his hand to them first, raised a finger again, and stood it in front of his lips, signaling them to silence.
Shangguan Xiu took a light step, walked to the table, lowered his head, and carefully looked at the documents that Tang Mingzhu was instructing,
Tang Mingzhu's handwriting is very beautiful, and it can be seen that her handwriting is practiced by copying Tang Ling's handwriting, which is very similar to Tang Ling's handwriting, but it is not rigid enough, but it is a little more beautiful.
After looking at it, a smile appeared on Shangguan Xiu's face, Tang Mingzhu only felt that someone was coming next to him, but he didn't look up, and while continuing to write, he said without raising his head: "These are all processed on my right, and they are distributed, and the stack under the paperweight is not sure to me, send it to the backyard, hand it over to Brother Yuan and Brother Qin, and after confirming that it is feasible, then distribute it,"
Shangguan Xiu nodded, picked up the stack of documents, and immediately a Shura Hall staff member stepped forward, took the documents in his hand, bowed silently, and then walked out quickly,
It didn't take long, and the table was more than half empty, but soon, the new documents arrived, and the documents on Tang Mingzhu's left hand side were almost doubled.
"Is there anything else," Tang Mingzhu felt that the people around him had not left, and said: "If it's okay, just step down, I hate having people standing next to me,"
Hearing her words, the faces of everyone present changed rapidly, His Royal Highness was disgusted, people really wanted to disappear immediately, they didn't hear anything, and at the same time, they couldn't help but secretly pinch a cold sweat for Tang Mingzhu,
"Yes, county lord," Shangguan Xiu replied with a smile and took two steps back,
Tang Mingzhu wrote a few more words, the pen in her hand suddenly stopped, she suddenly looked up, and saw Shangguan Xiu smiling, bright eyes,
She put down the pen in her hand in disbelief, stood up in surprise and joy, and exclaimed, "Brother-in-law," as she spoke, the little girl almost didn't think about it, and pounced on Shangguan Xiu,
Shangguan Xiu hurriedly caught her, her body shook, and she couldn't help but take a step back, the little girl's momentum was quite big, and before Shangguan Xiu could speak, Tang Mingzhu had already thrown herself into his arms and cried profusely.
He was stunned, and then patted the top of her head dotingly, and said with a smile: "Zhu'er is so sad to see me come back, it makes my brother-in-law sad too much,"
"Wow...... That...... Oil...... (How can I have)" Tang Mingzhu cried so hard that his words were slurred, one small hand grabbed his shirt tightly, and the other small fist also beat him twice on the chest,
Seeing this, Wu Yufei next to him couldn't help but take a step forward, the injuries on Brother Xiu's body hadn't healed yet, but seeing that Shangguan Xiu was just smiling softly, he suppressed the urge to step forward and pull Tang Mingzhu away,
"Okay, stop crying, it's not beautiful to cry again," Shangguan Xiu looked down at the villain in his arms and said with a smile,
Tang Mingzhu stopped crying, but she still sobbed, and after a while, she slowly withdrew from Shangguan Xiu's chest, her little face turned red, she lowered her head, and asked in a low voice, "Is Zhu'er ugly now?"
"Come, let me see," Shangguan Xiu's hands reached out to her armpits, and before she could react, she suddenly felt that her body was light, and the person had been lifted high by Shangguan Xiu.
Shangguan Xiu raised his head, looked at her little face, frowned, pursed his lips, shook his head and said, "It's really ugly, I don't see it,"
His words made Tang Mingzhu, who had just stopped crying, cry again,
Shangguan Xiu was startled, put her down helplessly, rubbed the top of her head, and said with a smile: "No, no, I'm joking with Zhu'er, Zhu'er is the most beautiful little girl I've ever seen,"
"Steamed, (really)"
"Hmm,"
Tang Mingzhu snorted and laughed again,
Shangguan Xiu was laughing on her back, crying and laughing, she was really a child, Tang Mingzhu was almost fourteen years old, in that era, she was no longer a child, but she was petite and looked two or three years younger than her actual age.
"Brother-in-law, these days, Zhu'er is very worried about you," after a while, Tang Mingzhu took out a handkerchief, wiped all the tears on his face, and then looked at Shangguan Xiu with big teary eyes.
Shangguan Xiu rubbed her little head again, and said, "Let Zhu'er worry, I'm fine," As soon as the words fell, a young man from the Shura Hall walked in from outside, saluted Shangguan Xiu and Tang Mingzhu respectively, and said, "Your Highness, County Lord,"
Tang Mingzhu turned his back, wiped his face quickly, turned his body back, pulled up his little face, and asked seriously, "What's the matter?"
"Returning to the county lord, the Minister of War Du Xiandu asks to see,"
When Tang Mingzhu heard this, he sighed lightly, waved his hand and said, "I know, go down,"
"Yes, the villain is retiring,"
After the young man left, Tang Mingzhu looked at Shangguan Xiu and said, "Lord Du must have come to ask for the official residence as well,"
"Oh," Shangguan Xiu raised his eyebrows,
Tang Mingzhu said helplessly: "After Your Majesty and the ministers of the court and the central government arrived in Xijing, Your Majesty lived in the palace, but the ministers still had nowhere to live, Your Majesty was sick and had no time to deal with these trivial matters, and the matter fell on the head of our Shura Hall."
She didn't accuse Tang Ling of not, but she also explained that after arriving in Xijing, Tang Ling didn't do anything, and if there was no Shura Hall to coordinate it, the court would have been in a mess.
"During this time, there have been as many as a dozen properties under the name of Shuratang, and according to the current land price in Xijing, if these dozen or so houses are sold, at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver can be earned,"
Shangguan Xiule was happy, and said nonchalantly: "The current Xijing lacks everything, but the most is silver,"
It can be said that half of the wealth of the Wind Country is now gathered in Xijing, and he changed his words and said: "Tangkou's real estate in Xijing can be taken out and given to the ministers,"
Tang Mingzhu flattened his mouth, even if he was dissatisfied in his heart, he still hummed softly, Shangguan Xiu suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Now it is still in Tangkou's hands, which is the largest mansion?"
"I'll take a look at it first," Tang Mingzhu took out the account book from the drawer, opened it, searched it carefully, and said as if offering a treasure: "It's a mansion located near the palace, Qijin, which Zhu'er specially left for her brother-in-law,"
Shangguan Xiu shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't need it, just live in the palace," he took the account book, handed it to Wu Yufei, asked her to write down the specific address of the house, and then ordered: "Yufei, you place Qingling here,"
"Yes, Brother Xiu," Wu Yufei glanced at the ledger quickly, then put it on the table, turned around and walked out,
A glint flashed in Tang Mingzhu's eyes, she approached Shangguan Xiu in confusion, and asked, "Qingling, who is Qingling that my brother-in-law is talking about, this is a big mansion with seven entrances," not any cat or dog can live in it casually,
"Her surname is Gu, and she is a friend of mine," Shangguan Xiu said lightly,
Gu Qingling, Tang Mingzhu's eyes flashed, and she immediately remembered this person, and she asked curiously: "Sister Gu that my brother-in-law said, is she the head of Baifeng Buzhuang?"
Shangguan Xiu nodded with a smile and said, "Zhu'er knows a lot,"
Tang Mingzhu said in surprise: "Zhu'er has always admired and admired Sister Gu, brother-in-law must help Zhu'er introduce her,"
"Okay," Shangguan Xiu agreed simply,
Next, Tang Mingzhu went to meet with the Minister of Military Affairs Du Xian, and Shangguan Xiu went to the backyard to visit the injured Yuan Mu, Qin Chuan, Mengtian and others.
After a month of recuperation, although everyone's injuries have not completely healed, they are mostly healed, and they walk slowly on the ground, and they no longer need the support of others.
Shangguan Xiu asked people to find Caidang, Ziyin and Hailey to discuss the deployment of Zhenjun.
At present, the strength of Zhenjun includes Hailey's 100,000 Besa cavalry, that is, the Jinsk city-state army, and 30,000 gendarmes, as well as 20,000 county troops and 50,000 reserves.
The 50,000 reservists are all recruits, and they basically can't pull the battlefield, and the available troops, that is, 150,000 people, counterattack Shangjing, that is unlikely, to ensure that Zhenjun is not lost, it is more than enough,
Shangguan Xiu looked around at the crowd and asked, "Do you think that if the rebels advance westward, which county will attack first?"
