Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 inforeadx;? When the Wind Country and Beisa were at war, Shangguan Xiu was thinking about how to plot against Ningnan, and when the Wind Country and Ningnan were at war, Shangguan Xiu was thinking about how to plot against Shah, and how to use Shah as a springboard for the Wind Country, so that the Wind Country forces could cross Shah and continue to expand westward.
Tang Ling has a deep understanding of Shangguan Xiu's belligerence, and in terms of foreign wars, Tang Ling feels that Shangguan Xiu is more like the king of a country than himself.
He has greater ambitions and ambitions than himself and the emperors of the Wind Country, he just wants to build the Wind Country into a strong country, and he can achieve national peace and security, while Shangguan Xiu wants to build the Wind Country into a heavenly kingdom that can be proud of the heroes for thousands of generations.
Tang Ling smiled, changed his words, and asked curiously: "Can you really become more beautiful and younger by taking a bath with milk and red wine?"
Shangguan Xiu didn't understand this, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Since Nan Huai said so, we might as well try," As he spoke, he untied the jade belt around his waist, Tang Ling looked at him in surprise and asked, "You also want to wash,"
"Of course, the husband and wife washed it together," Shangguan Xiu took off his robe and inner lining, revealing his shirtless upper body, even though he had been reborn with two drugs, Shangguan Xiu's body was still covered with large and small scars,
Tang Ling walked up to him, raised her slender hand, and gently stroked the scars on Shangguan Xiu's body, the scars were large and small, some were round hole-shaped, some were long-shaped, she touched them gently, and muttered, "It must be very painful,"
"How can you not get hurt in a war, you have long been used to it," Shangguan Xiu held Tang Ling's little hand, hugged her into his arms, and asked, "What does Xiang'er think of Xibu City?"
"Very good, in the future, Xibu City may be more prosperous than the imperial town," the development of Xibu City is too fast, in just a few years, it has transformed from a hairy and blood-drinking Fanbang tribe into a huge and prosperous city, containing all kinds of cultures, all kinds of ethnic groups, even if it is only the first time to come to Xibu City, Tang Ling can also feel that the development of Xibu City is far from the limit, what it will be like in the future, no one can predict now,
Shangguan Xiu said: "If Xiang'er likes it, I can ask Nan Huai to build a palace on the top of Xibu Mountain, and Xiang'er can also come to visit often in the future,"
Tang Ling pondered for a moment and said, "That requires a lot of silver,"
Mount Xibu is not small, and it will undoubtedly take a lot of manpower to transport a large amount of stone and wood to the top of the mountain.
Hearing that she was just worried about the silver, but she didn't raise any objections, Shangguan Xiu smiled and said: "Xiang'er doesn't have to worry about the silver, we have also inspected the silver treasury of Xibu Mountain, and it is more than enough to build a palace,"
"That'...... Just do what Ah Xiu wants," Tang Ling snuggled into Shangguan Xiu's arms and whispered softly,
When Shangguan Xiu came out of the bedroom, it was already past the time,
It was so late, he thought that the officials of Xibu City had already fallen asleep, but when he came out, he saw that not only the city lord Nan Huai was guarding outside, but the city captain Xiao Ben and the branch hall master Ouyang Fei were also waiting outside.
Seeing Shangguan Xiu come out, the three of them stepped forward together, bowed and saluted, and said in unison: "Your Highness,"
Shangguan Xiu waved his hand at them, signaling that the three of them didn't need to be polite, and Nan Huai asked in a low voice, "Has Your Majesty already slept?"
"Well," Shangguan Xiu nodded, and the garden Nunu mouth not far away, the three of them understood, and followed Shangguan Xiu into the pavilion in the garden,
You must know that this is the top of Mount Xibu, the ground is all stones, there is no grass, there can be a garden here, and the soil is carried up from the bottom of the mountain by manpower.
Shangguan Xiu sat down in the pavilion, Nanhuai and the three of them didn't dare to sit, they stood aside in a proper manner, Shangguan Xiu smiled, waved his hand and said, "You have all stood for most of the night, sit down,"
"Yes, Your Highness," said sitting, the buttocks of the three of them were just a little glued to the stone bench, Nan Huai cleared his throat and said: "Your Highness, I don't know why Your Majesty is angry, but Weichen has inconsiderate hospitality,"
Shangguan Xiule glanced at Nan Huai and said, "It's not that Nan Daren is not inconsiderate, but that he is too thoughtful,"
"Ah,"
"Your Majesty has always been diligent and thrifty, and this city lord's mansion of Nanda has been luxurious to an outrageous extent in the eyes of His Majesty, even the palace in Xijing may not be comparable to the city lord's mansion of Nanda, which makes Your Majesty have to wonder whether Nanda is the city lord in Xibu Mountain, or whether he intends to call the king and emperor here,"
Nan Huai, whose buttocks were already stuck on the stone bench, listened to Shangguan Xiu's words, his body slid directly to the ground, his face was pale, his expression was frightened, and he said in a trembling voice: "Your ...... Your Highness, even if Weichen has the courage to do so, he doesn't dare to have the slightest intention of rebellion, His Highness Mingjian, please Your Highness Mingjian," he kept kowtowing forward as he spoke.
Xiao Ben and Ouyang Fei, who were sitting next to them, glanced at each other, looked at Nan Huai, who was kowtowing like garlic, and both of them stood up, bowed to Shangguan Xiu, and said: "Your Highness, Nan Daren really has no intention of rebelling, at this point, it is indeed wronged Nan Daren,"
Xiao Ben and Ouyang Fei are both from Shura Hall, they are upright, upright and rough, and they are not very happy to see Nan Huai, who was born in the bookkeeping and has always been greedy for money, and they don't like it, but it would be ridiculous to say that he rebelled.
The silver and grain of Xibu City are not in the hands of Nan Huai alone, the city army and the people of Shura Hall are in the hands of Xiao Ben, the city captain, and Ouyang Fei, the branch master, respectively.
Shangguan Xiu looked at Xiao Ben and Ouyang Fei, who got up to speak for Nan Huai, smiled indifferently, and said, "Your Majesty's suspicion of Nan Daren stems from ignorance, Nan Huai, you get up,"
"Your Royal Highness Xie, Your Highness Xie's trust in Weichen," Nan Huai stood up tremblingly, he wiped the sweat beads on his forehead, and explained: "Your Highness, it's not that Weichen is extravagant, but, but Xibu City is different from the country, here, no one believes in low-key, no concept of wealth is not exposed, as long as there is money, you will have everything, on the way up the mountain, presumably Your Highness has also seen it, such as the city lord's mansion scale of the house, abound, if Weichen does not build the city lord's mansion magnificent, Luxurious and splendid, the people of Sibu City and even the merchants from all over the world will look down on the city lord's mansion, and the city government will have no prestige at all, and the governance of Weichen in Sibu City will be difficult."
For what he said, Xiao Ben and Ouyang Fei both nodded in agreement,
Rich businessmen are eager to bring all the gold in their homes with them, gold necklaces, gold belts, gold bracelets, gold rings, as long as they can show their wealth, they will do their best to wear them.
This is the ethos of the city of Zeb, or the prevailing ethos among merchants.
Merchants from all over the world, from all over the world, no one knows anyone, in the case of everyone does not know each other, how to judge the value of each other, how to judge whether the other party has the strength to do business with themselves,
The gold and silver jewelry worn on the body, the house and environment where the family lives, is the most intuitive way for a person to show his worth and status, and it is also to win the trust of others and facilitate cooperation in the shopping mall.
Shangguan Xiu had already heard about the atmosphere of Xibu City, and he said slowly: "I am very satisfied with the development of Xibu City and the governance of Nanda in Xibu City, and Your Majesty's dissatisfaction with Nanda will also try my best to eliminate it,"
"Your Highness Xie, Your Highness Xie," Nan Huai bowed repeatedly,
Shangguan Xiu continued: "Generally speaking, Your Majesty still likes Xibu City very much, and I plan to build a palace for Your Majesty on the top of Xibu Mountain, what does Nan Daren think?"
Where did Nan Huai dare to say half a word, he hurriedly bowed down and responded: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, Weichen will do his best to build a good palace for His Majesty and His Royal Highness,"
"Well, this matter, please Nan-sama,"
"Oh, Your Highness is tormented by Wei Chen,"
"Whether Nan-sama can please in front of His Majesty depends on Nan-sama's performance this time,"
Nan Huai's body was shocked, and now he is a little unsure, this palace located in Xibu City, whether His Majesty intends to be thrifty or luxurious,
He cleared his throat and asked cautiously, "Your Highness, I don't know...... I don't know if His Majesty's favorite palace should also be diligent and thrifty,"
Shangguan Xiu raised his eyebrows, looked at Nan Huai strangely, and asked rhetorically: "If the specifications of the palace are not as good as the City Lord's Mansion, do you think this is suitable for Lord Nan, can you still live in the City Lord's Mansion with peace of mind?"
"Yes, yes, Wechen is stupid, please forgive Your Highness, Wechen, Wechen will build a palace for Your Majesty and Your Highness that has no one before or after,"
Shangguan Xiu smiled, laughed angrily, glanced at Nan Huai, ignored him, he turned his gaze, looked at Ouyang Fei, and asked, "What is the situation in the Shah region recently?"
Ouyang Fei said: "Since the Ba people unified the Shah tribes, the Ba tribes have intensified their oppression of the tribes, looting countless gold, silver and jewelry from the tribes, and if there is a little resistance, the Ba tribes will unite with our garrison and send troops to conscript, and many Shah tribes have become slaves under the rule of the Ba tribes,"
If it were not for the garrison of the Zhenjun army, if it were not for the support of the Zhenjun army, the dominance of the Ba people in the Shah would have been overthrown by the tribes of the Shah long ago.
Ouyang Fei lived in Xibu City, and he had a deep understanding of the disasters suffered by the Shah tribes, and he also deeply sympathized.
Shangguan Xiu snorted and said: "Inform the garrisons everywhere, whoever the Ba people want to fight, help it fight, if you can kill a thousand enemies, don't give me eight hundred enemies, you have to do your best,"
"Yes," Ouyang Fei first agreed, and then said: "Suba and his son Gu Cheng are both extremely vicious villains, some time ago, Gu Cheng suddenly fell in love with women's hands, and actually cut off the hands of thousands of female slaves for him to play, and then he fell in love with women's feet, and cut off thousands of female slaves' feet, and he selected the most beautiful pair, Suba is mediocre, Gu Cheng is cruel, these two thieves are troublesome Shah......"
"Okay, there's no need to say it again," without waiting for Ouyang Fei to finish speaking, Shangguan Xiu interrupted him and said, "Shah, it's Shah's business, we don't need to interfere,"
But we have been meddling, we have been helping the Ba tribe to bully and slaughter other Shah tribes, and helping to abuse, Ouyang Fei said secretly in his heart,
Shangguan Xiu looked at Ouyang Fei with a smile and said: "You have done a hundred bad things, but as long as you have done a good thing, people will remember your good, in the same way, you have done a hundred good things, but as long as you have done a bad thing, people will also remember your bad, the more brutal the rule of the Ba people in Shah is, in the future, when we replace it, the more we will gain people's support, the people's will, that is the way of heaven, our annexation of Shah will become reasonable, it is a move to obey the will of heaven,"
"Yes, my subordinates understand," Ouyang Fei bowed and responded, with His Royal Highness's temperament, it is impossible to help the Fanbang alien race for no reason, and now that he heard Shangguan Xiu's words, Ouyang Fei also figured it out, His Highness deliberately introduced a brutal puppet to arouse the dissatisfaction of the Shah tribes, and prepare for his own replacement in the future,
