During the four years of Yongzheng, on December 19, there was a lot of excitement inside and outside the capital, and in the midst of people coming and going, there were always some people gathered together, gossiping, and some even gathered in front of the announcement, and began to insult at will, and even tore up the bulletin paper, and when the officers and soldiers came to arrest people, they dispersed in a hurry.

Such a scene can basically be demonstrated several times a day, and the cause of such a scene is nothing more than that the imperial court has issued new instructions, saying that it is a new order, it is better to say that it is a ban.

On the 26th day of the first month of the same year, the household department proposed that all utensils that must be cast from brass should not be made of brass, except for those that must be cast from brass; Those who have already completed it will be handed over to the official as scrap copper, and the value will be appraised and valued, and it will be punished if it is prohibited in the future.

"It's going to start again." The sound came from a window on the third floor, directly opposite the bulletin board.

"yes, another tasteless struggle." Another sound, in the same direction, but in a different position.

The door opened from the outside, and a short man in sackcloth was seen bending into the room.

"Master, the announcement has been brought for you." I saw that the villain carefully put a piece of paper on the table, and then retreated without waiting for the person who didn't want to call the master to speak.

"Master, the little one goes down first."

"Yes." With a voice coming from his nose, the speaker picked up the piece of paper, looked it up and down, and said with a smile: "It seems that the prosperity of my Qing Dynasty has begun to flourish again, but it has only suffered these ordinary people." There was a hint of sarcasm in the laughter.

"I'll see." The paper was redirected.

"Due to the turnover of commodities, the demand for money has increased sharply, but the production of brass, the main raw material for making copper coins, is insufficient, and there is not much coinage, which has led to the phenomenon of expensive money and cheap silver.

The man stood up, facing out of the window, to better look down on the prosperous scene of the capital, and said the words of explanation, I don't know whether to say it to the person opposite or to himself.

"Only officials above the third grade are allowed to use brassware, but I didn't expect that this brass was not a valuable thing, but now it has become noble."

"Presumably, your eldest uncle is also involved in this regulation." The man sat down again, picked up the cup, and took a shallow sip, a little bitter, unspeakably bitter.

Looking at the woman sitting opposite, those cold and clear eyes, can't help but make people stop, four years ago, she was accompanied by aura, the cheerful breath on the body, he can still reminisce, only to see the thin lips Ruodanzhu, said lightly: "Why do you want to be involved with my uncle again?" ”

"I'm sorry, but it was my negligence just now, not to mention it, not to mention it." Dong Sixian knew that he was a little rude, and said softly, but he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.

"I just don't want to get too deep with them." Nalan explained.

"I understand, I understand, with our friendship of more than four years, it was just my negligence." Nalan looked at Dong Sixian opposite, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, in four years, the man in front of him has changed from a gentle and elegant son to a shopkeeper in charge of various places.

"What? Repented? Dong Sixian's eyebrows revealed surprise, and he regretted it, including his wishful thinking.

Nalan smiled softly, and looked at Dong Sixian again, today's Dong Sixian is wearing a purple robe embroidered with green lines, the delicate eyebrows, but there is still a bit of scholarly atmosphere back then, Dong Sixian is not good-looking, but it is not ugly, what is rare and valuable is that he has always had the meaning of a gentleman.

"How can I regret what I believed, what's more, don't you already have several concubines." Nalan said with a smile, but he couldn't see any color in those pairs, so that what Dong Sixian wanted to say, when he said it, it was also out of shape.

"Even if you regret it, it's too late, haha."

"That's not very good."

"That's natural, as a friend, I still hope you find the right person as soon as possible."

"The person you like, I'm afraid it's just someone who wants it." Nalan said a little bored, turned his head to look out the window, stood up and said, "It's not early, I have to go back, I'll come here tomorrow to take care of it, you can enjoy the fun of all people in the mansion." ”

"Huh! Who do you think of me? Dong Sixian looked unconvinced.

"Good guys, of course." The corners of Nalan's eyebrows were raised, and he couldn't say how playful it was, Dong Sixian was a little stunned.

"Okay, don't talk to you, I'll have to go back."

"Need someone to drop you off?"

"No, I want to go."

Dong Sixian also stopped talking, and then began to drink tea, looking at Nalan's back in the distance, the tea had already been brewed, and behind the unspeakable bitterness, there was a trace of sweetness.
