Chapter 32: Gathering Troops in the Prairie
"Master, Zhuangzi New Year's goods have been sent from all over the country, this is a gift list."
In Ningguo's mansion, Jia Zhen was drinking, and there were two beautiful concubines by her side. Jia Rong respectfully handed over the gift list: "This year, the output of Zhuangzi in various places has been reduced by nearly 30%, and the total amount of silver is less than 9,000 taels. ”
Jia Zhen didn't scold anyone this time, and her attitude was kind: "That's it, in the past few years, natural disasters and man-made disasters, the reduction of production is within a reasonable range, how about the purchase of shops everywhere?" ”
Jia Rong hurriedly said: "The shops in various places are still being counted, and there will be a final result in the next two days, and they will come here in person and report to the master when the time comes." ”
"Hmm."
Jia Zhen's mood was a lot less, and there was some eagerness in her eyes: "Baron Wu Fa's Mansion, did you send someone to keep an eye on it?" ”
Speaking of Wu Fa, Jia Rong was a little afraid in her eyes: "Master, we can't get close, the Baron's Mansion is guarded by Wu Fa's two hundred personal soldiers, and if you get close, you will be interrogated, and you will be beaten." ”
"But the lady and old lady of the Baron's Mansion, I went to the Great Xiangguo Temple a few days ago, and there were one hundred and fifty guards to protect it, and the Great Xiangguo Temple was half a day at that time, and no outsiders could enter, and we didn't know what happened."
"Hmph..."
With a cold snort, Jia Zhen's face turned cold.
With that one in mind, a peerless and captivating face, Jia Zhen felt that her lower abdomen was on fire.
This is the woman he dreams of, the woman he wants to get no matter what. It's just that the reckless man is too powerful, and he doesn't dare to act rashly: "Did the northern thief hear any news?" ”
"This..."
Jia Rong's face shook, he knew what kind of crazy thoughts he had about Lao Tzu.
He has been inquiring about the thieves in the north recently: "That reckless man pushed all the way, and it was only more than a month, and the horse thieves and mountain bandits in the north and northwest either fled in despair or were directly eliminated. ”
"Rubbish, that bunch of rubbish!"
Jia Zhen's hand was heavily placed on the table: "In the past, thousands of soldiers and horses couldn't exterminate the bandits and horse bandits in one place, why are they so useless?" ”
"Go, keep watching, there's news for me."
That face was already a little blurry, but it didn't prevent Jia Zhen from being ignited because of this. These two concubines have just changed from maids to concubines, although they are not too beautiful, they also make him temporarily satisfied: ", you useless thing." ”
Jia Rong withdrew from the room, and she was a little angry in her heart.
He didn't want Wu Fa to die in battle?
Wish!
There are many nobles in Shenjing City who want Wu Fa to die in battle, especially those gentlemen, when Wu Fa was in Shenjing City, he had to avoid the vicinity of the Baron's Mansion every day when he traveled the route, for fear of being troubled.
The reckless man who greets the girls in people's houses at every turn and stretches out his hand to ask for money has not been in the capital recently, not only him, but also how many noble brothers in Shenjing City have begun to have no pressure and become unscrupulous.
Who wants that reckless man to come back?
"I really don't want him back."
The reckless man was about to become a shadow in his heart, and when he thought of that face, he trembled in his heart: "Don't do stupid things, master, if that reckless man lives, he can take our lives at any time." ”
......
Baron's Palace.
Qin Keqing sat in the study and looked through the input accounts of the properties under the name of the Baron's Mansion.
Wu Xin practiced calligraphy next to him, and occasionally looked up at his sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, how much money do we have in the house this year?" ”
Qin Keqing closed the accounts: "The main input of the Baron's Mansion is the three grain shops in the outer city, and the total input is only less than 5,000 taels, in addition, the eight shops in the inner city have just been transferred to their names, and the total input is less than 2,000 taels. ”
Qin Keqing picked up another account: "The Baron's Mansion has a reward of good land from the imperial court, and the income is more than 4,000 taels, and the additional purchased land has not yet been entered." ”
That's all the Barony's Palace.
Wu Xin stopped writing: "Sister-in-law, this entry is too little." ”
"This year's investment is large, and the silver invested alone has been nearly 80,000 taels, and next year's input should not be less than a palm."
The Baron's Mansion does not have much expenditure, and this year's income is considerable, after all, the Baron's Mansion has only been open for a few months?
This year, how young does her father have to be to save it?
And my own sister-in-law, is it too little?
"If only my brother were here."
Wu Xin was a little worried: "Recently, I heard that there are some noble sons and daughters, and they have begun to run rampant again, and there are some noble family brothers who dare to rob the women on the street. ”
They are brothers and sisters!
It's all so domineering.
Qin Keqing felt funny: "That's not a long-term solution, and it's easy to fall into the handle, if you don't do it well, you will lose your head, Xin'er don't think nonsense." ”
Speaking of her husband, Qin Keqing was very tormented in her heart and missed her very much.
It's been more than a month, and there's no news. Occasionally, I would learn a little bit of news about my husband from my father.
"Come on, come on, you've been in a lot better shape recently, and you will be surprised when you go back home."
Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Qin Keqing smiled: "In a few days, it will be the New Year, and my mother has promised you that I will take you and Xiangling into the palace to see and see after the year." ”
Cai's is the old lady of the second grade, and Qin Keqing is the second grade.
After the year, they all want to go to the palace and pay homage to the queen.
"Enter the palace."
Wu Xin became excited: "I'm really looking forward to it, sister-in-law, I'll follow you when the time comes." ”
Qin Keqing smiled slightly, and the thoughts in his eyes almost turned into substance. There are five days left until the New Year, and my husband is afraid that he will not be able to come back. was able to enter the palace as a second-class fate, and it was all fought by her husband.
"The master doesn't know when to return to Beijing, the fight outside is dangerous, and I am so glorious in Shenjing, I am really a little guilty."
......
Hanyuan Hall.
Today's pilgrimage.
This is the last big pilgrimage meeting of the year.
Courtiers also have annual leave, after the court meeting, unless the military affairs are important, the cabinet is needed, and the heads of the six ministries need to worry about, basically most of the courtiers can still have a stable New Year.
"Your Majesty."
Zhuge Shan Jiju, the second assistant of the cabinet, came out of the class: "Eight departments of the northern grassland, 300,000 Chen soldiers are north of the Great Wall, and the confrontation has been nearly two months. ”
"Prairie?"
Emperor Qingyuan's eyes narrowed slightly, the Great Wall blocked, and there were 300,000 grassland cavalry, all of which had always been in a high-pressure posture, and now they have not retreated. This made the Great Jin Dynasty panic, and the north broke two towns in a row, with countless casualties.
If it weren't for the heavy snow in the north covering the mountains, it would not be easy to advance the troops, and the grassland would inevitably continue to advance towards Shenjing City at this time.
Back then, Emperor Wuzong, Chen Bing Grassland, the soldiers of the grassland fled from the wind, and now they are making a comeback, looking down on him as an emperor?
Or do you think that Da Jin is already so easy to bully?
"Your Majesty."
An imperial historian came out of the class: "The major affairs of the military state, the people will be injured and the money will be lost, and the ministers think that they should focus on peace and harmony, give money and food, and make them retire." Now, the grassland mission is about to enter Beijing soon, which shows the sincerity of the other side. ”
"Your Majesty."
A column of martial arts generals dissolved out of the class: "It is a fact that the war in the north is tight now, but there are more than 200,000 soldiers and horses in the north, and the grassland does not dare to rush into the army in the area of the Great Wall. Not surprisingly, it must be because the grassland grain and grass are unable to succeed them, so they will think of negotiating peace. ”
In most cases, the grassland sends troops because of the difficulty of survival.
can be fed and clothed, only those who are ambitious will use swords in vain.
"Your Majesty."
Zhuge Shanji continued: "Now that the grain harvest in various places is poor, and the treasury is empty, it cannot support large-scale military operations. It's not too late to wait for the coming year, gather strength, and make plans. ”
"Your Majesty..."
The water is unwilling, Wenchen does not understand military affairs, just because the Emperor Taishang and His Majesty are fighting, Wenchen does not support sending troops at this time, that is, he does not want the Emperor Taishang to continue to generalize, so as to stabilize the strength of the army.
However, how can military affairs be ignored for the sake of personal interests?
"The treasury is empty."
Emperor Qingyuan is also very helpless, how empty is the treasury now?
A large-scale battle can't be fought, and the Great Jin Dynasty is rich all over the world, but the rich are those merchants and nobles. Emperor Qingyuan's eyes flashed, and he had a plan: "Zhuge Aiqing, you are responsible for the entry of the grassland delegation into Beijing." ”
Negotiate peace, do you really want to fight?
Can't afford to fight.
If you really fight, you may be going to lose the country!
"Yes."
Zhuge Shanji smiled, this time Wenchen Group successfully pulled back a game.
"Report!"
"Eight hundred miles expedited!"
A healthy horse, galloping.
A post man held a bamboo tube and ran into the main hall quickly: "Eight hundred miles urgent!" ”
The man was silent, and his eyes fell on the bamboo tube.
Emperor Qingyuan was also in a heartbeat, and inexplicably felt that he had a bad premonition.
The northern grasslands will not be fogged by peace negotiations, but in fact take the opportunity to go south?
What do you eat in the nine towns of Border Pass?
"Bring it on!"
Emperor Qingyuan was a little nervous, the 300,000 cavalry on the grassland was not a joke, once the Great Wall defense line was broken, the Great Jin Dynasty was powerless at all.
Quickly opening the letter, Emperor Qingyuan's eyes suddenly widened: "Bastard!" Reckless! How can this reckless man be so reckless! ”
