Yi Lan is not a simple-minded martial artist, he is very smart, and he immediately grabbed the point from Jia Cong's words.

"You're saying that I'll have Warat specialize in raising sheep and then exchange it for grain from the Celestial Empire?"

Jia Cong nodded: "Yes, aren't you good at these?" You give me wool, and I give you food, how good. ”

"Not good at all!"

Yi Lan became angry, and directly grabbed Jia Cong's clothes: "Didn't you promise me that as long as I facilitate the return of Warat to Great Xia, I will let the people of Warat grow potatoes?" ”

This is no longer a question of whether to grow potatoes or not, according to the way Jia Cong said, the people of Warat are accustomed to exchanging wool for food, and they will slowly be choked by the Han people.

If one day the Han people cut off the wool business, Yilan could not imagine how many people would starve to death on the grassland.

Jia Cong unhurriedly broke Yi Lan's hand away, and said as a matter of course: "Warat is such a small place suitable for growing crops, even if it is intensive farming, how much can be harvested?" Besides, will the people of Warat be able to farm? Anyway, they will all be Daxia people at that time, and raising sheep can feed a family, what is the impact of planting or not farming? Or do you have something else in mind? ”

What's the idea? Took potato seedlings and broke the contract and rebelled?

Yi Lan was choked up by Jia Cong's rhetorical question, because what Jia Cong said was right, few of the people in the grassland knew how to farm, and the only arable land was still cultivated by farmers who had been taken from Great Xia.

And as Jia Cong said, they are all people of Daxia, whether they raise sheep or farm land, as long as they can support their families, there is no difference.

But......

Yi Lan's expression became more and more complicated, unwilling, angry, and depressed until he was relieved.

"Yilan, you haven't put yourself in the right position until now......"

Jia Cong's eyes became cold, and he sneered: "You have to remember one thing, you are no longer the Khan of Warat, you are the Shunyi County King of Great Xia." Whether it is the Han people or the Warat people, they are all His Majesty's people. How to keep all the people in the world fed and clothed, Your Majesty will properly consider it, and Your Majesty will not let his people starve and freeze! ”

This is the truth, Jia Cong presented the wool plan to the emperor and received the support of the entire center.

The wool plan is not only to let Bactria completely control Warat, but also to carry out a poverty alleviation strategy for Warat and solve the problem of food and clothing for the people of Warat.

In order to solve Yilan's concerns, Jia Cong took him directly to the Ministry of Industry. After visiting the Manufacturing Bureau of the Ministry of Industry, more than a dozen textile instruments let Yi Lan see the sincerity of Da Xia, and at the same time, there were also the latest artillery and flintlock pistols, which dispersed the last trace of unwillingness in Yi Lan's heart.

Even if he didn't take the initiative to ask for it, at most three or two years, Great Xia would be enough to forcibly annex Warat by force. And it will be a one-sided war, and Varat will not even have the strength to resist.

After returning to the Sifang Pavilion, Yilan summoned the Warat nobles who came to Beijing with him, and firmly instructed: "Send a letter to your family, don't follow the Taishi to fight against the Celestial Empire, this is our last chance......"

Qiang Qiang Qiang ~

Woo woo woo~

Since the founding of the country, as long as there are no special circumstances, the annual iron net mountain hunt will be held in September or October.

This year's autumn hunt is even larger than in the past, in addition to the three auxiliary ministers of the cabinet who stayed in the capital, each of the six ministries has a squire to accompany him.

The Ministry of Rites even led the team to follow by Lian Shangshu He Yaomin, preparing to preside over the annexation and sealing ceremony of Wara.

The royal family, the noble relatives of the martial arts and the civil and military families above the three grades are all accompanied, and the guards alone brought 30,000 forbidden troops, all the way to the mighty, after several days of marching, to the foot of Yan Mountain, stationed in the royal hunting ground of Iron Net Mountain.

It was the first time for Xue Baochai to participate in the hunt in the Iron Net Mountain, so he rested in the tent, changed into an orange round-necked short-sleeved shirt, put on a hood and walked out of the tent.

It just so happened that Daiyu, Sanchun, and Xiangyun came to find her, and the group laughed and played, and came to the place where they were riding.

This is a special place for the ladies to relax on horseback, and there is a polo field inside, and when Daiyu and the others arrived, there were already bursts of cheers inside.

This time, it was the virtuous concubine Jia and the good concubine Mo who followed the emperor out of Beijing, both of whom were martial artists, and they liked this kind of occasion the most.

As soon as he arrived at the hunting ground, he left the emperor and went to the polo field happily to swing, attracting a large group of noble ladies to watch and applaud.

"Second sister, look, it's Chun'er...... And big cats! ”

Xichun broke free of Yingchun's hand, lifted the hem of his skirt and ran forward with an exclamation, tripped over the grass on the ground and rolled around, he didn't care about crying, muttered that he was so embarrassed, and continued to rush when he got up.

Chun'er, who was clapping her hands on the high platform, also saw Miss Xichun, and with a cry of surprise, she stepped forward to meet Xichun.

plopped, Xiao Chun'er also rolled around, puffed up and wanted to cry. However, when he saw Xichun who had already run over, he showed his sweet dimples again, and stretched out his hands to Xichun.

The two little girls finally crossed the "many obstacles" and hugged each other, and the maid wiped the dirt on their faces and hands with a handkerchief.

duang~

Another gong sounded, and the Niangniang team scored another point, and the princess team was obviously not the opponent of the two Niangniang.

Concubine Mo has a cool temperament, is upright, and has always been very arrogant and informal, and has a good relationship with Yuan Chun, who was also born in the family of Wuxun.

The two cooperated tacitly, and soon defeated Liu Shule, the eldest princess of Deqing, and Liu Shuyi, the eldest princess of Anyang.

When Daiyu and the others came to the high platform, Tu Siqi, the daughter of Deqing, was waving her hands to cheer for the Niangniang team.

"Sister Siqi, why don't you cheer for Aunt Deqing?"

Tu Siqi replied as a matter of course: "My mother's level is too poor, how can there be a virtuous concubine and a good concubine?" Of course I'm rooting for teams that play well! ”

It makes sense~

Daiyu and the others looked at the two princesses who were losing on the polo field, and couldn't help but nod like chickens pecking rice......

The game was over quickly, and the team won without any surprises.

Yuan Chun and Concubine Mo freshened up a little, and as soon as they returned to the high platform, they were surrounded by a group of little girls.

"Niangniang is so powerful, can you teach me?"

As soon as Liu Shule came back, she saw her daughter running to ask Concubine Xian and Concubine Liang for advice, and her teeth were itching.

Yuan Chun saw Liu Shule and Liu Shuyi, who had just come back, and asked with a smile: "Why doesn't Siqi learn from your aunt and aunt?" ”

I only heard Tu Siqi reply bluntly: "I don't learn from poor ......."

"Third sister, Siqi, this girl is a little underwhelmed!"

"Eighth sister is right, I think so too!"

Puff~

Yuan Chun raised his hand and gently pressed it on Tu Siqi's forehead: "Did you hear it, your aunt and your aunt are going to beat you." ”

Tu Siqi also saw her mother and aunt staring at her, and shrunk her neck: "Huh? But my mother's level is too poor, and my mother is still amazing. ”

……

Two teams of people were changed on the polo field, Tu Siqi, who was worried about being beaten, pulled Xiangyun on the horse to swing, Yingchun and Tanchun took Xichun and Chun'er to cheer, and Daiyu stayed on the high platform with Baochai to talk to Yuanchun and others.

Yuan Chun looked at his two cousins, and felt inexplicable in his heart.

Compared with last year, the identities of the two little cousins have changed dramatically.

Daiyu was named the princess, and Baochai also became the noble daughter of the Zhumen, but the two families of Wang and Shi, who were both of the four major families, were silent, and the family was completely defeated.

"Sister Xianfei, this is also your cousin? Why are all the people who are handsome in your family? ”

Daiyu Mo has seen it many times, but Baochai is the first time to see it. Looking left and right is not enough, why are the people of the Jia family and those related to the Jia family so handsome?

She beckoned Baochai to the front, took her hand and looked up and down, and suddenly complained to Yuan Chun: "No, how about you give me my cousin?" I'll exchange Xin'er with you! ”

Liu Xin is the daughter of Mo's, and contrary to her mother's personality, she is a quiet and unmoving.

I have no interest in hunting at all, and at this time I am probably staying in the library building in the palace with Concubine Feng, swimming in the sea of books.

Yuan Chun, who is also knowledgeable, is one of Liu Xin's teachers, and he often goes to Fengzao Palace to seek advice on weekdays.

This is also one of the reasons why Mo's complaint, the daughter born is not like her own, but like the daughter of Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu, who is she going to reason?

Yuan Chun looked at Mo's rarity with Baochai, and smiled: "If my sister is a rare treasure girl, you might as well give her a good look." I heard that my sister has a nephew who is able to write and martial arts, and is preparing to take next year's entrance examination......"

"Oh, I forgot if you didn't say it!"

Mo's eyes lit up, and his gaze at Baochai became even hotter.

She was born in a military family in Lanzhou, her father and brother are all martial artists, and most of her nephews are also rough men who dance guns and sticks.

Only the second brother's widowed son Mo Shizhi followed his mother, who liked to read since he was a child, and this year he participated in the township examination of Shuntianfu as a prisoner of the country, and won the second place in the township examination.

Mo Shizhi and Jia Cong were called the double heroes of the capital by the scholars, and the emperor once told Yuan Chun that Mo Shizhi and Jia Cong were fighting for the martial arts, at least in the future, whoever said that the generals were vulgar would have to let their own sons and nephews win these two first.

Baochai was caught off guard by the sudden kiss and blushed.

Mo Shi is a big character, he clenched Baochai's hand, and smiled: "Miss Xue, my nephew is seventeen this year, and he is exactly the same age as you." Looks, not to mention that he looks like Pan An, but he is also gentle and elegant, a first-class handsome queen......"

……

This time of the hunting, Mrs. Xing and the two mansions were still Mrs. Xing with a few girls from the family, escorted by Jia Cong and Baoyu.

Jia Cong went to the imperial palace to wait for the decree, and learned that the second saint was temporarily fine and was planning to go back to rest, not wanting to be pulled by Baoyu to the small river on the west side of the camp tent as soon as he arrived at the camp.

Feng Ziying went to Shanxi with her father, Liu Xianglian listened to it in front of the emperor, and only Wei Ruolan was familiar here, and Jia Cong didn't know the rest of the people by the river.

However, I have known Jia Cong in the past few days, the hereditary Yongfeng Bo, Yumao, and Jinke Shuntianfu Township try to solve the yuan, who doesn't know the third master of Rongguo Mansion?

"Student Mu Congying (Zhao Delin, Mo Shizhi, Gao Jian) visited Yongfengbo!"

"You don't have to be polite......"

Wei Ruolan introduced Jia Cong: "Brother Cong, these four are all my classmates in Guozijian, and Brother Mu and Brother Mo are still the same year as yours." ”

Well? Same? That's what you need to do in this section.

Jia Cong looked at the most sturdy man among them, eight feet tall and covered in tendons, and was speechless.

Is this a reader? The kind of people who use their fists to talk to people "slapstick"?

"Brother Wei, this is also your classmate? I thought it was a fierce general......"

I saw the big man snorting at Jia Cong, and introduced himself angrily: "The student is indeed a classmate with Brother Wei, and he can also have some punches and kicks, but he is not a fierce general." ”

Wei Ruolan explained on the side: "Brother Mu was born in the Mu Mansion of Yunnan Province, and his grandfather is Old Master Mu. ”

Understood, this tendon meat must be a family heirloom!

At the beginning of the founding of the country, why the first generation of Mu Wang Mu Ying was accepted as a righteous son by his grandfather, nine feet tall and dancing with a halberd, one of the reasons why he was invincible in the enemy camp was one of the reasons.

Mu Congying, Mu Ying, the family heirloom has not run away, it is estimated that the Mu family also wants this son to inherit the prestige of his ancestors.

But how did you get mixed in with the readers, and you still got the lift?

Jia Cong stood on tiptoe and tried to pat him on the shoulder, but it was not enough.

Finally, he beat his chest and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Yes, yes, study the Analects well, and we will have the opportunity to reason with the Tartars together in the future." ”

Mu Congying didn't understand Jia Cong's pun, scratched the back of her head and looked at Baoyu suspiciously.

Baoyu spread his hands and shook his head, Brother Cong often said things he didn't understand, and he was used to it for a long time.

Wei Ruolan introduced the other three to Jia Cong, among whom Mo Shizhi was the Yayuan of this township test, and he was also the grandson of Mo Tingwei, the commander of the Shaanxi Metropolitan Command.

His father Mo Zhiyao died in the Jiubian office in his early years, and Mo Shizhi came to Guozijian from his hometown in Lanzhou to study because of his father's grace.

Zhao Delin is also a military queen, and his father is Zhao Shiyong, the chief soldier of the Dengzhou Water Division. The eldest brother is from Wu and he from Wen, and this year's examination is already considered to have changed the court for the Zhao family.

Only Gao Jian's family background is relatively ordinary, his grandfather opened a restaurant, his father failed to study but won the martial arts, and now he is serving as a thousand households in the Soldiers and Horses.

can play with Wei Ruolan and others, mainly because Gao Jian will have good cooking skills, and this group of gluttons often secretly cook food in the dormitory......

The identities of several people are very different, but in the final analysis, there is one thing in common: they are all natural closeness after the generals.

The factions in the Guozijian are not simpler than those in the court, and the civil officials and the military generals are not said to be on the same page, but they are also distinct.

Coupled with those epiphytes who bought places with money, and the gilded gentlemen of the noble relatives' families, it can be said that they have to fight at every turn, and they will be messed up into a pot of porridge after a dozen.

After Wei Ruolan and the other martial artists were rejected by the group of civil officials who considered themselves to be orthodox disciples of saints, they naturally fought together, but they lost more and won less.

Until this will be Mo Shi won the township test Yayuan in one fell swoop, coupled with Jia Cong, the demon Xie Yuan, it can be regarded as slapping the faces of those people who regard themselves as high.

Say that we are vulgar after the warriors?

Come, come, read with me:

First place Jia Cong, a student of Daxing County, "Spring and Autumn".

The second place is Mo Shizhi, Guozi Jiansheng, "Yi".

After the hometown test, the warriors in the Guozi Prison finally raised their eyebrows.

They copied a lot of lists of the Shuntianfu Township Examination and posted them everywhere in the Guozijian, so that those civil officials were ashamed and hid their faces.

wanted to refute but couldn't find an excuse, and finally talked about Jia Cong's teacher Xu Jin. Jia Cong was able to pass the Xie Yuan exam, not because he was born in Rongguo Mansion, but because his teacher was Mr. Lin Wenkui Qingteng......

Wei Ruolan and others told Jia Cong about these strange things that happened in Guozijian, which made Jia Cong stunned.

Sticking a big-character poster and slapping your face? Good guys, can you still play like this?

Of course, Baoyu dragged him here from the camp not only to talk about these gossips, but after the township test, some of the civil officials in the Guozi Prison were not convinced, and agreed to compete again during the hunt.

He also said that he invited He Yaomin, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, as the referee, and agreed to have two competitions, one poetry and one competition, and one riding and archery.

Wei Ruolan and others in the field are naturally not afraid of Mo Shizhi's township test Yayuan, but in terms of poetry, they are really not people's opponents.

After thinking about it, Wei Ruolan thought of Jia Cong and Baoyu. Anyway, this time, the other party didn't say that it had to be the prisoner of Guozijian, and it was not a violation to invite two people to come.

Likened to a poem? I'm afraid that as soon as Jia Cong comes out, the other party will have to disarm and surrender.

Than riding and shooting? Don't need Jia Cong to make a move, our Mu Congying asks to fight!

Wei Ruolan wanted to look up to the sky and roar: Who else?

Although this competition seemed quite naïve to Jia Cong, he remembered the words of the sage master who reprimanded him some time ago.

It's also time for him to expand his influence in Shilin circles, and this is an opportunity. The faction in Guozijian is actually the epitome of the Shilin faction, so let's test the water with this competition first.

The hunt has not officially begun, and this time there are still two days left in the competition.

Wei Ruolan and the others saw that Jia Cong agreed to this matter, and the whole person relaxed a lot.

It was still early, and several people were good at riding and shooting, and they hunted a lot of game in a short time, and there was Gao Jian, a chef, who directly started a barbecue by the river.

Jia Cong and Baoyu were still thinking about their sisters, and after roasting a few venison, pheasants, and hares, they sent them to the polo field for Yingchun and others.

Mo Shizhi thought that his aunt was playing on the polo field, so he personally took the roasted game to the polo field.

……

Jia Cong and others chatted happily around the barbecue, and on the high platform of the polo field, Mo Shi was pulling Baochai to constantly promote his nephew.

At this time, the female officer beside Mo came over with a plate.

"Niangniang, the right son sent the roasted meat, saying that he just hunted it with his friends, and it has just been roasted, please taste it."

Grilled meat is sliced on the plate, full of color and flavor.

Mo Shi immediately showed off his nephew: "Hey, this person really can't stand the chatter, you see, as soon as he talked about him, he told me about the hot meat." Miss Xue, look, I said that my nephew is a filial ...... Sister Xianfei, do you think what I said is right...... The Three Princesses ......"

Yuan Chun and Liu Shule have similar expressions: It's started again, it's started again!

Since I hit the township test of Shuntianfu, Concubine Liang opened her mouth and closed her mouth How is my nephew......

None of the people in the palace could hear that their ears were about to become calloused, otherwise Yuan Chun would not have thought that the Mo family also had a nephew who was both civil and military.

"Sister Xian, do you want to try it? My nephew honors me, doesn't that mean honoring you? The third princess and the eighth princess, do you want to try it too? ”

At this time, Baoqin came over with a string of palace maids, each of whom held a plate in her hand, on which was roasted meat.

"Niangniang, the uncle and Bao Gongzi ordered someone to send the freshly roasted game, saying that it was hunted with friends, and invited the mother and the girls to try it."

Yuan Chun raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth raised: "Oh, my sister's kindness and sister have it." My brother Cong and Baoyu also sent roasted game, why don't my sister taste my ......"

That's all for today, and we'll continue tomorrow.

Good night!
