As for the second prince who has a loss of personal morality and a tyrannical temperament, as well as the sixth prince who has low intelligence and is as stupid as a pig, they are not within the emperor's consideration, and they have already been out.

Wang Jia followed the instructions of his young lady, pasted a thick hair on his chin, his skin was also painted bronzed, and a turban was wrapped around his head, which looked like a huge hat and covered his broad forehead.

It is no exaggeration to say that even Wang Jia's father and mother are standing in front of him now, and they will definitely not recognize him.

What's more, he still speaks a very non-fluent Daye dialect, and there is a thick Western accent in his tone.

He bought cotton and animal feathers in the Western Regions, lived for three months, and had to negotiate with seven or eight local residents of the Western Regions every day.

When Liu Pianran was five months old, the imperial court had already negotiated with the "merchants of the Western Regions" to buy all the cotton in his hand at the price of 30 million taels of silver.

The "merchant of the Western Regions" originally refused, and he still wanted to make a fortune in the country of the Daye Dynasty, but His Royal Highness King Yan proposed to barter and was willing to exchange more than a dozen cars of Daye's precious cloth, porcelain, tea and other things with him.

Wang Jiacai accepted it when he saw it under Shen Feiluan's instructions.

And their cotton, in fact, is not all taken out.

"Miss, we still have about 100,000 padded jackets and 200,000 feather jackets on the way."

At the beginning, Shen Feiluan asked Wang Jia to take back all the cotton in the Western Regions at all costs, and he did as she wanted, but because there were too many things and the process was delayed, Wang Jia came back ahead of schedule with some of them.

Shen Feiluan nodded: "Let the embroidery girls speed up, sew more cotton jackets and duck feather clothes, I can double the salary, and be sure to make all the clothes before the beginning of spring." ”

At the beginning of spring after the New Year, the Turks will take advantage of the ice melting in the Daye Dynasty and the soldiers and the people can not resist the severe cold, and launch a war against the border passes.

This time, Shen Feiluan took precautions and sent warm clothes to the border soldiers, hoping that his uncle could resist the Turkic people with wolf ambitions in Jilusai, and also gave the border people a peaceful New Year.

"Second Miss, a letter from Yanzhou."

Xiao Zhongyun said in the letter that all the corrupt officials in Yanzhou have been removed, and thanks to Shen Feiluan's list, he can take Yanzhou so quickly and accurately.

The local people did not lack food and clothing at all, because Xiao Zhongyun had already made preparations before going to Yanzhou, contacted several wealthy local businessmen, and tempted them to arrange a half-official position for them after the corrupt officials got off the horse, driving them to sew cotton clothes and store grain and charcoal.

As soon as the snow fell, he arranged for the officials to sweep the snow in the streets.

It was not the snow that was swept from the ground, but the snow on the roofs of the people's houses.

It can be said that no heavy snow can stay on the roofs of the people until the next day.

After the snow disaster, the people were hindered from traveling, but Xiao Zhongyun used the method taught by Shen Feiluan to use salt to melt ice, and every household swept the snow water into a bucket every day and poured it into the fertile fields.

The snow seeps into the ground, and the problem of travel is solved.

Then there is the problem of keeping the people out of the cold and eating.

In order to get rid of the lowly status of Shinong Industry and Commerce, the merchant made cotton clothes, grain and charcoal according to Xiao Zhongyun's requirements, which came in handy at this time.

He lied about the disaster in Yanzhou, deceived the imperial court of more silver and cotton clothes, and quietly sent all these things to Yuqin Pass.

The imperial court has always been in a free-range state for Yuqinguan before, just because the lord of Yuqinguan will be Zhou Liangsheng, a loyal minister of the Pei dynasty.

When the Murong clan rebelled, Zhou Liangsheng was far away in Yuqin Pass, and the distant water could not save the fire.

But he angrily scolded Murong Zhan for being a wolf-hearted rebel minister, and refused to return to Beijing, the imperial court sent someone to take over his military power, and he killed one by one, and over time, the soldiers of Yuqin Pass were released.

Anyway, when Fanbang invades, General Zhou will still lead troops to defend against the enemy, not for the imperial court, but for the people of Daye to avoid the suffering of war.

The imperial court did not pay the army, and got 50,000 troops for nothing, and the old emperor Murong was still happy!

saved a lot of money to give him alchemy.

Yuqinguan has become a three-regardless zone, and raising 50,000 soldiers is Pei or one person's money, even if the family is rich, the soldiers are also living a hard time haha.

The whistling north wind was raging, the air was full of white hair, the heavy snow and frost almost fascinated the eyes, the weather was so bad that the training could not be carried out, the soldiers had no warm clothing, their ears and hands were full of frostbite, and the weapons were unstable.

"When is the fucking snow going to stop? The barbarians of Fanbang have been shouting under the city for two days, why hasn't General Pei yet faced the battle? ”

"Stupid, those barbarians were born here, they grew up in wind and snow, they have long been accustomed to this kind of weather, they deliberately came at this time, if General Pei fights, your frozen legs and feet are enough for people to cut a few knives?"

"That's right."

The soldier's facial features wrinkled together in sorrow: "Our food is getting worse and worse, there are not a few grains of rice in the rice soup, and the cake is so hard that it can knock out my big teeth." ”

"What do you have to complain about? The people don't even have to eat this, and it's good that you can eat enough. ”

That being said, they are warriors destined to die on the battlefield, and who wouldn't want to eat a good meal before dying?

Shen Feiluan's 108,000 taels of silver tickets and thousands of cotton clothes and hats arrived with the materials sent by Xiao Zhongyun.

Ma Liuxing hurriedly handed Shen Feiluan's letter to Pei He: "Master, the second lady also asked her subordinates to bring a lot of meat and rice, and it will be no problem to survive this winter." ”

Isn't there something sent by Lord Xiao!

It's okay to make do.

The three armies can be rewarded, and when the news went down, the cheers shook the barbarian generals on the other side of the mountain.

I thought there was an enemy attack over there.

The heavy snow also fell in Yedu for 20 days, and finally stopped on the 30th day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

Every year in the Chinese New Year's Eve, a feast is held in the palace, but this year it is too cold, and the snow is too thick, some palaces that have been in disrepair for a long time and have been empty all year round have collapsed, and the emperor ordered that this year the officials do not have to enter the palace to attend the banquet, and they are just at home.

However, soon, there was news among the people that the emperor did not hold a banquet this year because a dilapidated stone tablet appeared in the collapsed palace.

The stele reads: The monarch has no virtue and seven big characters from heaven to disaster.

At the same time, when the ice and snow of the folk moat melted, when some people went to the lake to dig ice and catch fish, they also fished up a stone tablet from the river, which was covered with moss, which obviously appeared in the water half a year ago.

The stele is still engraved: The monarch has no virtue and the heavens are in calamity.

The same stone monuments have appeared all over Yedu, and the time has appeared before the snow disaster, as if it is really a warning from God.
