Chapter 38: The Southern States Have Long Been Controlled by Western Xia?

In the middle of Kyoto Castle, a mansion.

It's a deep, silent house.

This is one of the wealthy merchants in Kyoto City, and the surname of this wealthy merchant is Fugui.

The family has a lot of money, and the wealth is comparable to that of the country, and it can be regarded as a small prestige in Kyoto.

At this time, in the garden of the house, several maids were watering the bright flowers and tending the branches and leaves.

"Master, the courtyard here is really beautiful, the scenery is pleasant, and the mind is refreshing... It's a great place for a summer day! ”

Wang Fugui lay on the soft collapse, and the concubine room on the side served carefully.

"Of course, I don't count them, but there is no one in Kyoto Castle with such a mansion!"

Wang Fugui closed his eyes and said lightly.

"Surrounded by water outside, there is a garden oasis inside, and the lights are on, warm and pleasant!"

"Hahaha~~Hahaha."

Wang Fugui laughed loudly, and Yang Hui, the new head of the Yang family, personally came to apologize that day and compensated Wang Fugui for the low price of the mansion rewarded by His Majesty.

This time, Yang Hui sent the mansion, which made Wang Fugui like it even more.

From that moment on, Wang Fugui knew that the Yang family had become history.

And Wang Fugui is even more proud, and the whole person is full of red face.

Wang Fugui's attitude towards the Yang family immediately changed, and he called Yang Hui a brother and became a good friend, and even invited him to participate in the spring hunt next spring.

Nature is a joy in shape.

"Of course, who else in the entire capital would dare to live in such a luxurious manor except our family."

"By the way, sir, I asked the maid to prepare a table of meals today, and we haven't had a drink to celebrate for a long time."

The concubine on the side said coquettishly.

"Yes, that's what I want."

Wang Fugui patted the concubine's delicate face and said with a smile.

The concubine was touched by Wang Fugui like this, and her cheeks were crimson.

She gently pushed Wang Fugui: "Master, you are necrotic!" ”

"Hahaha~~~~!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and a burst of spring love caused the servants next to them to retreat.

Although Wang Fugui is a wealthy businessman, he cherishes luxury and pleasure, likes to hold wine banquets, cook wine and bamboo to compose poems, and talk about major events in the world.

Wang Fugui said: "Go and take out the treasured wine." ”

Wang Fugui gave an order, and suddenly several family members walked in with boxes and placed them in the garden.

When the crate was opened, it was filled with jars.

"Master, this is the daughter of the old wine."

Jia Ding said respectfully.

Then another box was opened.

I saw that all the white jade bottles were placed inside.

Wang Fugui picked one up, pulled out the cork, and a mellow fragrance came to his nose, Wang Fugui took a deep breath and exclaimed: "Good wine." ”

Wang Fugui handed the wine in his hand to the concubine beside him: "The taste is sweet and mellow, and the aroma is tangy." Good, good, very good! ”

"Announce to the whole city, tomorrow at noon, the wine cooking meeting, the banquet of the world's heroes, scribes, the first prize is a hundred taels of silver, a fierce horse."

.......

"The second place will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver, and a strong donkey."

.......

"The third place will be rewarded with ten taels of silver and ten horses of cloth."

Wang Fugui excitedly recounted that a scribe in charge of the accounts was carefully recording and arranging a thousand-character beautiful essay.

......

At this point, the servant took out some more boxes.

These are some strange stone treasures collected by Wang Fugui some time ago, and they can just start the price of strange stone treasures at this wine cooking conference.

It is the way of doing business, which is a metaphor for small profits and big returns.

Wang Fugui's business acumen is very strong! That's why he can become a wealthy businessman in the capital.

Wang Fugui commanded, and after speaking, he couldn't wait to open the lid of the box.

Suddenly, a burst of rich light emanated.

I saw that the box was full of all kinds of rare treasures, each of which was exquisite and abnormal.

A fist-sized, blue-colored stone came into everyone's eyes, which was exactly the treasure that Wang Fugui found after searching for a long time in the Western Regions———— blue stone.

There is also a stone the size of an egg lying peacefully in the box, glittering, and it should be the pearl of ———— night.

Wang Fugui curiously picked up the stone and looked at it for a moment.

Wang Fugui's eyes flashed: "Good thing!" ”

"What kind of substance is this gem, and it has such an equivalent effect, no wonder the people of the Northern Zhou Dynasty compete for this thing."

Wang Fugui was full of emotion, and then picked up another gem.

This gemstone is crystal clear throughout, with a faint halo, like a full moon, and it is the ———— laurel tree.

"Sir, is there anything else you need to do?"

The concubine said delicately beside her.

"Hmmm! I'd like to see how much these things can sell for! ”

Wang Fugui said lightly.

Wang Fugui's concubine nodded in agreement.

She has a graceful figure, snowy skin, and good looks, especially the seductive appearance is simply intoxicating.

"Hahaha!!"

Wang Fugui laughed and said, "Madam, serve me tonight, I will definitely make you happy like a fairy." ”

Wang Fugui laughed and hugged his wife's thin waist and said.

"Nasty."

Wang Fugui's mansion covers an area of nearly ten acres. Among them, there are rockery springs, flowers and plants, ponds, and giant trees.

In the garden under the mansion, a group of slaves and maids are busy.

A bonfire has already been set up in the garden, and a rectangular table is placed next to it.........

At this moment, Wang Fugui had changed his clothes and sat at the table, looking elegant.

To the left and right of Wang Fugui were standing servants and servants.

"Knock~~~Knock~~~~Knock~~~~"

At this time, the sound of bells and drums rang in the distance, and a melodious sound of the piano wafted out, which was pleasant to the ear.

.......

"Look, Prison Army!" A pawn suddenly pointed into the distance, and his eyes lit up.

Hearing this, Fu Li looked in the direction of the pawn's finger, and saw that in the distance behind the army, the sky was full of smoke and dust, and a large army was slowly pressing towards this side.

"It's not the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and I don't know who anyone's private army is."

Foury looked at the other party's flag, and could not see the words, but it was uniform from the color of the flag.

In fact, it is normal, over the years, the imperial court's control over the army in various places has become more and more lax, because for various reasons, the army has long become a plate of scattered sand, and it cannot be cohesive at all.

Governance is a policy of compulsory conscription, both officials and civilians have to pay taxes, and they must not resist, because if they do so, they will suffer ruin.

This has led to bandits and bandits from all walks of life.

Fu Li's eyes continued to stare at the army, and gradually Fu Li's face changed, and he shouted in surprise.

"Is that ———— Western Xia Army?"

Foury's words caused an uproar, and all the generals looked at the opposing army.

"How could the Western Xia army be here, could it be that the southern states had already been controlled by the Western Xia? I really didn't think that the situation was so dangerous now, which is not good. ”

"What can I do! Before we could break through Hongdu, the Western Xia army was killed. ”

"The Western Xia army is fierce, how can this be good, do we want to retreat to Xunyang?"

“.........”

"Yes! I didn't expect that Xixia would be able to lurk here quietly, and we didn't notice it at all. ”

"Looking at the equipment and weapons of these Western Xia troops, they are even more sophisticated."

The generals were talking and flustered.

At this time, Fu Li stood up and said, "Don't panic, everyone, although the Western Xia soldiers are strong, the general of Zhenguo has never been defeated by the Western Xia. ”

"This time is no exception, everyone can rest assured."

"Yes! Our Zhenguo General is the existence of the god of war in the world, who dares to provoke him! ”

One of the generals said, his voice extremely penetrating.

Sure enough, this sentence instantly calmed everyone down.

"Ladies and gentlemen, behind us are thousands of people in Daxu, if even our army of 100,000 is afraid, how can we protect them?"

"We must not be defeated!"

"This is our original intention in the army! In order to protect our families, we must not fail, go to the national disaster together, and never die!! ”

A group of generals shouted loudly, the atmosphere suddenly tense, the aura of slaughter permeated the audience, everyone's blood was boiling, and everyone shouted in unison!

"Daxu Wansheng! Daxu Wansheng! ”

“............”

"Besides, we are far away from Western Xia, as long as we hold on for a few days and wait for reinforcements to arrive, we can easily defeat the Western Xia soldiers!"

The general's words relieved everyone's hearts a little.

Soon after, a melodious piece of music resounded in the sky.

The music is melodious and exciting.

The generals were all beaming, and their favorite thing to listen to was this song, because it represented victory.

At the end of the song, everyone's hearts were still excited.

"Report, General! There is a messenger with a secret message. ”

"Bring it on!"

A group of knights galloped in, all with ruddy faces, apparently after they had eaten and drunk.

Soon, the band stopped, the knights rolled over and dismounted, standing respectfully on either side, and a young man walked in.

The man has a slender figure, upright and handsome facial features, bright eyes, and a handsome nose.

Looking at the identity, it must be the Qincha of the imperial court.

"Meet Fu Jianjun!"

Qin Cha said to Fu Li, very polite!

"Please get up, I don't know what the Holy Lord's will is?"

Fu Li said with a smile.

"The Holy Lord ordered me to pass on the message: I have already issued a decree that after the rebellion is put down in the prefectures and counties of the world, I will not tour the north, and my palace will not need to be repaired."

When Fu Li heard that it was a holy oracle, he did not doubt it, and immediately fell to his knees.

"This is also a token given by His Majesty as a proof, and it is also necessary for Fu Jian Jun to appease the soldiers of the whole army, and the army is food and grass, Your Majesty has ordered the household department to prepare within a time limit!"

"Prime Minister Fu Cheng, this is a letter from the lower official to you, your little daughter Fu Yuanmei can't get it, she is both civil and military."

"Oh?" Foury took a piece of letterhead, opened it and looked at it carefully.

"Hahaha, yes, Yuanmei is indeed smart and smart, when this child grows up, he will definitely be able to become a pillar of Daxu."

Foury said with relief, his face full of pride.

Fu Li is such a girl, usually holding it in his hand for fear of falling.

At that time, he also had his considerations for giving Fu Yuanmei to General Zhenguo.

First, General Zhenguo is a hero and talent, worthy of his daughter.

Second, in order to win over the general of Zhenguo, I thought it would make the emperor suspicious, after all, it is a big crime for civil officials and military attaches to collude with each other.

Unbeknownst to him, the emperor did not care, but gave him a marriage and rewarded himself with some treasures, which made Fu Li grateful.

At the same time, it also made Fu Li feel that the emperor understood the righteousness.

However, Fu Li will not change his camp just like this, after all, the new monarch is not orthodox in Daxu, which makes it not a test for the prime minister of a country who is familiar with the Four Books and the Five Classics, the upper to the sky, and the lower to the dawn.

Although Fu Yuanmei is still young, Fu Li has already seen that she has a great future, and she will definitely become a famous female hero in Daxu in the future.

This made Foury ecstatic.

Fu Li took a deep breath, so let Fu Yuanmei marry the general of Zhenguo, and Fu Li could be regarded as letting go of a boulder in his heart.
