The good and evil of human nature has been an indecipherable question since ancient times, and unlike Jia Cong's belief in the inherent goodness of human nature, the experience of forgiving the great master made his view of human nature more inclined to Xunzi's human nature and evil.

He has always adhered to the concept that there are many stones in this world, and there are few charcoal in the snow. The icing on the cake is many, and the poor are helped.

Therefore, after the lord heard about the people and people his son-in-law Liu Xianglian had met, his first reaction was that someone wanted to harm his son-in-law.

If it had been before, Master Pardon would have probably gathered people to beat people and demolish the house.

However, he is now basically getting out of the affairs in the court, and he is idle at home either with a baby or a dazzling baby, and he has a lot of free time.

Finally, someone sent the fun, and the old man held down Liu Xianglian, who was anxious to go home to investigate.

"Son-in-law, leave this matter to me, and you should act as if you don't know anything......"

Looking at the appearance of his father-in-law rubbing his hands and smiling, Liu Xianglian didn't know whether to persuade one or two.

In the end, it is the Liu family's business, and it is not good for my father-in-law to get involved.

Isn't this just causing trouble for the Yue family?

He had no choice but to turn his gaze to his wife on the side, but saw that Yingchun gave him a soft smile and nodded slightly.

"Okay, let the boss check. You two are young, and you don't know how much to lose in the face of those old foxes. Boss, come and ......."

The old lady made a final decision and completely suppressed Liu Xianglian's plan to do it herself.

She called her eldest son to her and whispered a few words to him, which made the eyes of the eldest lord instantly shine.

Master Pardon was both expectant and a little embarrassed, and smiled: "Mother, isn't it good to do this?" Do you want your son's reputation anymore? ”

The old lady rolled her eyes at her eldest son: "What is your reputation?" Do you need any fame? ”

"Hey, that's what you say...... That's it right to the point. ”

The conversation between the mother and son is estimated to have been heard by the old lady's eldest maid, the Mandarin Duck, but the Mandarin Duck has been practiced all these years, no matter how surprised she is, she will not show it.

The people in the room were all confused, especially Jia Cong, who was like a cat scratching in his heart, and kept secretly moving towards the old lady.

"Alright, just do it. Since people don't want the second girl and their husband and wife to be in peace, why do you want them to wait comfortably to see our jokes. ”

The old lady naturally saw Jia Cong's movements, and finally told her eldest son, and directly exposed the topic.

Yes~

The Riddler again!

Jia Cong suddenly felt that the whole person was not good, and he wanted to ask what the old lady had told her father, but when she saw that the old lady was still reluctant to mention it, she went to the old man to grind her teeth.

In the end, although he didn't find out the specifics, Master Yu still doted on his little son and whispered in his ear.

"Aren't they going to marry their son-in-law, who are they connecting with or not, do you think this is the ......reason?"

……

Xiangyun and Lu represent that her marriage to Baoyu has entered the final critical stage.

As the old lady's treasure, the entire Ning Rongjia family focused most of their energy on the marriage between Baoyu and Xiangyun.

However, before the wedding of Baoyu on the eighth day of May, Rongguo Mansion still has to do a big thing, that is, the third master of Cong wants to accept the young daughter of the king of Shunyi County, Baolu as a righteous daughter.

In order to show Jia Cong's importance to this matter, he deliberately took the big seal of the pardon lord and scattered countless invitations to the capital, which made the entire capital talk about the royal cat accepting the righteous girl.

Some people are curious about why Jia Cong has something to do with the subordinate of the Shunyi County Palace, and some people have already begun to hand over secret music to the palace, and they all said to the emperor that Jia Cong has a heart of disobedience.

What are you Jia Cong, as an important minister of the country, marrying a Tatar minister, what are you going to do?

"Heh~ This is taking me for a fool!"

The emperor threw the secret music in his hand on the table, and said to Xia Shouzhong: "Daban go and see how many such there are, record the name, and burn it." ”

Jia Cong's acceptance of a righteous daughter may be casual, but this matter will bring great benefits to the dynasty.

It is true that the Jin family is lonely, but the influence of the Golden Family on the grassland is immeasurable.

These people who gave Jia Cong eye medicine only saw that Jia Cong wanted to accept a righteous daughter, but they didn't think of a thing.

Who is Jia Cong's fiancée? That's my righteous daughter. Jia Cong's daughter-in-law is Daiyu's daughter-in-law, that is to say, that son-in-law Baolu is his goddaughter, the emperor's goddaughter.

It doesn't matter if the relationship is a little twisted, the daughter of the golden family will call him grandfather in the future.

That's fine, right?

In this way, the Er'er Jin family has changed from a subordinate to a relative of the old Liu family, and there is no need to worry about the royal family, no matter how you look at this transaction, you will feel that it is worth it.

The most important thing is that Yilan still has a large number of believers in the grassland, and all of them are good at fighting horses on their arms.

Seeing that Great Xia is going to fight against the Rakshasa Kingdom in the northwest, it can reduce the casualties of the Han family's sons and daughters, and let Jia Cong accept a righteous daughter, what's wrong?

"Proposed decree, the eldest daughter of the king of Shunyi County, Baoxing is the lord of Jiading, and the youngest daughter is the lord of Wujiang, and the food is 300 households, and the Ministry of Rites will give the honor guard ...... according to the system."

Once enclosed, the palace of Shunyi County changed from the original deserted to a crowded city.

Fools can see that the emperor is supporting Jia Cong and Yilan.

Originally, those who were still taboo about what to surrender and not to surrender to the ministers would think of the wealth on the grassland, and they came to offer their courtesy.

But Yilan had already taken the true scriptures from Jia Cong, and firmly placed his position in the ranks of the princelings or the loyal ministers of the imperial party.

Except for a limited number of imperial party henchmen, all the gifts given by others were received, even if they offended many people for this.

Soon, the people who were turned away heard the news.

It turned out that as early as two years ago, Liu Ke, the prince of Zhongshun, and Jia Yu, the prince of Rongguo, had already traded with Yilan, and almost monopolized the business of rare treasures such as leather goods, ginseng, and deer antler velvet in the grassland.

In addition to the wool and other materials necessary for the Ministry of Industry, almost seventy or eighty percent of these high-value products in the entire Anbei Prefecture were operated by the joint caravans of these three people.

In addition to one-third of the profits obtained every year, Jia Yu and the other three people each earned more than 500,000 taels of silver per year.

……

Jia Cong returned the bejeweled goddaughter Baolu to Lan Qiduo, and complained to his father speechlessly: "Dad, you are still hiding this from me......"

"It's not that your father wants to hide it from you, it was decided when the king discussed it with your father and the king of Shunyi, and no one can say anything about it before the time comes."

Liu Ke took over the conversation and sneered: "You don't know the situation in the DPRK and China, so if this matter spreads, we won't be charged with taking profits from the people?" Although this king doesn't care about you Lao Tzu, what do you let King Shunyi do? ”

Yi Lan also smiled helplessly, nodded and responded: "At that time, I will still be a Tartar minister who everyone wants to step on, if it is said that it is the crime of colluding with the clan and colluding with Wuxun to plot misdeeds, even if Your Majesty believes me, the public opinion of the government and the opposition will force Your Majesty to deal with me ruthlessly." ”

Now it's different, his Yilan's daughter has become the emperor's god-granddaughter, and the Er'er family has become the royal in-laws.

What happened to the in-laws family joining forces to do business? The civil and military ministers of the court, except for ruthless people like Hai Gangfeng, who has not done business with his in-laws?

"Haven't you always wondered where my money came from? I'll tell you about ...... today."

The old man had a new godgranddaughter, and he drank a few more glasses, which was just right.

The front hall of Rongguo Mansion was all his own people at this time, and the old man had no hidden thoughts, and after nodding at each other with the old thirteen, he said: "In addition to the business in the north, I and the old thirteen also operate the jade business in the Western Regions, and we also have a share in the jade business in the southwest." After the summer harvest last year, in accordance with His Majesty's wishes, Lao Thirteen and I also organized a fleet to take the route of the Japanese country and that Africa to operate the slave trade! ”

Rumble~

Jia Cong only felt that his mind was buzzing, the business of jade and jade was easy to say, and this thing was a high-profit luxury business after it was finished.

But Jia Cong really doesn't know how to evaluate the slave trade.

"Alas~ Dad, this thing ......"

Master Yu didn't know his son's character, so he raised his hand and interrupted him: "If we don't do it, Xiyi will do it, and they are more ruthless than us......"

"Besides, instead of letting Xiyi plague those Kunlun slaves, it is better to let them do things for our Celestial Empire, at least our Celestial Empire will not take human life seriously!"

As soon as he talked about Xiyi's approach, Lao Thirteen looked disdainful.

Xiyi is really an uncivilized barbarian, Kunlun slave is a little darker, what a good labor, whether it is opening mountains and paving roads or farming and picking, as long as it is cultivated, it is a first-class good hand.

The fleets they formed basically did not use force when they arrived in the localities, and they all used large porcelain bowls and batches of silk cloth in exchange for labor.

The benevolent Celestial Empire disdains to use the knife to make enemies with people.

As for the Japanese people...... Oh, that's not a person, there's nothing wrong with trading with a Japanese with a knife handle!

The personalities of the old thirteen and the old man are highly similar, and the two nodded tacitly and smiled at each other.

"Dad, Thirteenth Master, you misunderstood what I meant......"

Jia Cong smiled helplessly, it seems that his image of "women's benevolence" is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, which makes his father misunderstand his thoughts.

He explained to the two: "I'm not saying that I oppose the slave trade, I just want to remind you that don't let Kunlun slaves defile the blood of our Celestial Empire!" ”

Well?

Burst......

Hahaha......

After a moment's pause, the people in the room burst out laughing.

The old thirteen clutched his stomach in joy, and said while laughing: "Jia Cong boy, are you teasing this king?" Who the hell would follow Kunlun Nu...... Hahahaha......"

Jia Cong spreads his hands, there is nothing impossible in this world!

"Thirteenth Master, don't believe it, some people's tastes are so peculiar, not to mention Kunlun slaves, wild monkeys are possible!"

Syllable~

Master Pardon slapped Jia Cong's head directly, angry and funny.

"Where's that nonsense? Isn't it your second brother? See if Lao Tzu doesn't kill him! Don't think about those who have it, this kind of pickled thing is also what you should ponder as a child who hasn't grown hair? ”

Second Master Lian, who was entertaining guests outside, was innocently lying on the gun, and Jia Cong didn't explain.

He couldn't explain this matter to the eldest lord and the thirteenth elder, if these two knew that there were really people who were not taboo in meat and vegetarian in their previous lives, it is estimated that the two of them would have to shout outrageous.

Jia Cong muttered: "Anyway, I also reminded what I should remind, it's good for you two to pay more attention......"

"Okay, okay...... Hahaha...... All right, this king will answer thee. Anyway, we don't plan to let Kunlun Nu enter the customs, just let them work in overseas fiefdoms. ”

The thirteenth only thought that this was a pleasure, and did not violate the rules they had agreed to at the beginning, so they casually agreed.

After responding to Jia Cong's request, Lao Thirteen turned the topic to preparations for war in the northwest.

"By the way, how did you arrange the Western Expedition?"

Old Thirteen asked, and Yilan, who was originally watching the excitement from the sidelines, instantly became energetic.

Jia Cong glanced at Yi Lan, who was looking forward to it, and said 1510: "It has been arranged, the main will be Zhang Kelu, the eldest grandson of the old man of the British Gong, and there are three deputy generals, my brother Rong, Niu Mang of Uncle Niu's family, and the forward general is the king of the county." ”

"Add one more person, let Chong Ge'er go, he will be the military envoy, and at the same time be in charge of the army's food and grass."

The words of the old thirteen made Jia Cong immediately surprised: "Thirteenth master, the sage has already told me to let the prince follow me to handle the official affairs of the National Development and Reform Commission." Besides, this battle is a bitter cold place to the west of the Western Regions, and it is an autumn and winter battle, where can the prince endure such suffering? ”

Jia Cong's choice of candidates for the expedition was not chosen casually, Zhang Kelu is a fierce general brother who is more fierce than the second brother Jia Lian, and he has been leading troops on the front line of Xuanda, and has almost inherited the talent of the British old man Zhang's art of war.

Jia Rong is also a person who has fought the Japanese and killed the monkeys of South Vietnam, and has suffered in Jiaozhi. Niu Mang can be seen from the name alone, this guy is a reckless general, and he is the tip of the sword when the army charges.

Not to mention Yilan, just the influence of the Golden Family's bloodline will be of great use in the Western Regions at that time.

Liu Chong, the son of the loyal king? A scholar from a clan is not good at helping to write in the capital?

"You kid can't even look down on the son of this king?"

Hearing Jia Cong's words, the old thirteen suddenly glared angrily.

Jia Cong hurriedly wanted to explain, but saw that the old man held down the thirteenth who was about to go crazy.

He said to Jia Cong: "San'er, letting Liu Chong go is the meaning of the saint." If you go to the Western Regions, it is very likely that you will need to mobilize the forces of all parties in the Western Regions. That kid from the Zhang family is a general, but he is not suitable for dealing with those people in the Western Regions. Liu Chongnai is the grandson of a saint, and this identity is sometimes much easier than the general's military order! ”

Even Yi Lan on the side echoed: "What Rong Gong said is that whether it is the grassland or the Western Regions, the leaders of those tribes often do not recognize the orders of the imperial court, and there are many people who shirk military orders. But they did not dare to disobey the will of the Heavenly Khan. The grandson of Tian Khan represents the majesty of Tian Khan, and the son of the world follows the past, whether it is collecting grain and grass or mobilizing various departments in the Western Regions, the efficiency is far higher than a military order! ”
