Chapter 20: Mrs. Jiang
Tossing and turning, hungry, and running out of energy, Zhuang Xun can be regarded as getting up.
ate some pastries, took a comfortable bath, and was served by Siqin Mi to put on clothes.
It's still early at the moment, bring some small gifts, and get ready to visit Jiang Xianqi, who took care of Si Qinmi, and thank her for taking care of her.
"This Mrs. Jiang is very powerful, she is a big businessman who crisscrosses the country, she donated a Taoist temple to King Cheng, and was named Mrs. Cheng as a second-grade lady."
Si Qinmi said the news she heard, she had a kind of sensitivity to see the subtleties, what is true and what is false, and she can quickly identify it when she hears the news.
"It's very powerful, those who donate a Taoist temple will get this kind of reward." Zhuang Xun is not the same novice as before, and he has almost touched the basic official rank and honor.
"If you can let King Cheng confer her as Mrs. of the Second Grade, you will know how much the Taoist Hall she donated satisfies King Cheng." Seeing that Zhuang Xun didn't understand what he meant, Siqin Mi said further.
"Her financial resources far exceed Lang Jun's imagination, she can take a fancy to Lang Jun, it is Lang Jun's honor, maybe we can do more." Siqin Mi directly said clearly, but unfortunately Zhuang Xun couldn't understand.
"What to do? There's more to be done. Zhuang Xun was puzzled, and he didn't react to what Siqin Mi meant.
"In this negotiation, no matter what the result is, Lang Jun can get a piece of governance, Lang Jun's foundation is weak, since Mrs. Jiang secretly has the heart to help, Lang Jun might as well take the initiative to seek it." Siqin Mi crumpled the words, Zhuang Xun finally understood, pull investment.
"But I'm not a strange thing, right, people just recommended filial piety on a whim, and now I ask others for support, isn't it a little I don't know."
looked at Siqin Mi, who bowed his head and wore a jade pendant for him, and asked the King of Reincarnation, no one should know that he had an imperial vein.
And in addition to people like Siqin Mi who have received their great favor, there are a few who will support them because they have the imperial lineage.
"Lang Jun, what about pleading, Lang Jun, can't you pull down your face?" Si Qinmi asked rhetorically, faintly implicating.
"Of course not, yes, it doesn't matter if you ask for it, it's just that people may not look down on our foundation and future." Zhuang Xun didn't care about Si Qinmi's implied agitation at all, he listened to her, but felt that she was ridiculing herself, she was the first to lead, but she had no idea in her heart.
"No, since you appreciate Lang Jun, as long as Lang Jun asks, then Mrs. Jiang will more or less invest some resources, after all, these are just a drop in the bucket for her, now Jiannan or Hebei, we all have nothing, no matter what kind of help, we need it!"
Si Qinmi saw it very clearly, since Mrs. Jiang admired Zhuang Xun, then Zhuang Xun asked Mrs. Jiang for help, and there would inevitably be a response.
"However, what if she makes some requests to control us, although I have not felt Mrs. Jiang's malice at the moment, and I have been taken care of by her." Zhuang Xun felt suspicious when he said this, and maliciously speculated about others.
"Not to mention that we have to swallow even if it is really poisonous wine now, she is unreasonable, and we refuse it." As long as he can improve his strength, especially the strength of his rule over Dao County, Si Qinmi doesn't mind ceding some power.
Zhuang Xun's power is too thin, even if he arranges his relatives and friends, it will not fill the holes of Dao County officials, not relatives and friends, which means that loyalty is difficult to guarantee, if he can get more stable Zhuang Xun's power to govern Hebei or Jiannan, Si Qinmi does not mind ceding some of his power.
"Also, I'm really a pig brain, how can I not think of these things in a day!" Zhuang Xun was reminded by Siqin Miyi and reacted, thinking of the machine.
"Lang Jun, you just don't like to trouble others, but to compete for the world, you want to trouble others, the concubine remembers that Lang Jun told the story of strange goods and three visits to the thatched house." Siqin Mi hung up the jade pendant for Zhuang Xun, slowly stood up, and arranged the cuff for him.
"Talents will not take the initiative to take refuge, and support cannot come out of thin air, Lang Jun, you are not a strange commodity, with one, you have the foundation to fight for Yu State, although the hope is very small, but it is not nothing!" Siqin Mi boosted Zhuang Xun's confidence and said.
"What the lady said is that talents are actively recruited, and support does not come out of thin air, compared to those support from unknown sources, it is better to cooperate with the kind Mrs. Jiang." Zhuang Xun accepted the lesson, and what Siqin Mi said was very reasonable, so he accepted it.
"It's good if you understand, at present, Hebei and Jiannan Province are both valuable to Chengguo, and the concubines hope that they want Jiannan Province and leave Hebei Province for Langjun." Siqin Mi was pleased to say that Zhuang Xun's biggest advantage is that professional people and professional people do it, and he is not strong when he is wrong, except for the bed.
"Why? Because Jiannan is too dilapidated? Zhuang Xun had heard He Jung's analysis of the pros and cons of the two places, but he also wanted to listen to Si Qinmi's discussion.
"No, compared to Hebei, the concubine is very fond of Jiannan, Jiannan Road is fertile and fertile for thousands of miles, taking into account the dangers of mountains and rivers, it is able to compete for the capital of the world, but the biggest problem at present, can we hold Jiannan Road?" After finishing the cuffs, he began to tidy up Zhuang Xun's placket.
"The current situation of Youguo is unknown, but it is obvious that they can't easily accept this defeat, especially when Youwang is not on the right throne, he needs Jiannan Dao to relieve the pressure at home, just like Chengguo has always wanted the four counties of Hebei in Yuguo, and Youguo also has this kind of heart disease for Jiannandao, after all, after passing the spirit pass, Youguo has no danger to defend." Si Qinmi's brows furrowed, but he smoothed the wrinkles on Zhuang Xun's body.
"If you can get Jiannandao back to life before Your Majesty dies, you can take advantage of the dangers of the mountains and rivers to resist, but just like Lang Jun said, Jiannan is already rotten, and it is conservatively estimated that it will take five years to recover its vitality, and it still needs someone to help, so every bit of support is extremely important at this moment." Si Qinmi once again emphasized the importance of Mrs. Jiang.
"Guarding Jiannan Road is to keep hope, at present, the princes of Yu Kingdom are competing for the throne is already on the table, and only by guarding Jiannan Road can they be qualified to intervene." Siqin Mi sighed slightly, and it was another difficult start.
For example, the difference between Jiannan Road and Hebei Province is the difference between the late stage and the early stage, Jiannan Road is a place where you can get richer and richer as long as it develops, and the upper limit of Hebei Road has been locked, but the selection of Jiannan Road is facing the risk of being attacked and killed by foreign enemies at any time, and Hebei Road does not need to be considered.
"I don't have a choice, I can only accept it, lady, you are right, I can't let go of the slightest opportunity, do you say that my father-in-law will help me." Zhuang Xun reacted quickly, and immediately set his eyes on the Li family.
"What old man? You reacted quickly, so it's not good for Sister Li. Si Qinmi said with a little hesitation, she had also thought about this direction, and was hesitating whether to remind Zhuang Xun, Zhuang Xun himself said it first, she didn't react at first, and when she reacted, she felt that this was inappropriate.
"What's not so good, since Ru Ji is going to marry into the family, don't you bring some dowry? The Li family has a big business, isn't it normal to marry something? "Zhuang Xun has become a capitalist again at this moment, as soon as his thinking is flexible and the bottom line is lowered, he has new ideas.
"You are really, Sister Li wants to regret marrying you, she didn't give you a dowry, but you are worried about her dowry." Si Qinmi smiled, and couldn't say words of praise in the face of Zhuang Xun's thoughts.
"Originally, she took the initiative, you see, why don't we visit Lifu first, ask my father-in-law to help, and fight for Chengguo in the court as long as Jiannan Dao." Zhuang Xun joked.
He was joking, but Siqin Mi responded seriously.
"By all means, the visit and proposal must be after the negotiation, General Li is currently under the suspicion of King Cheng, and it is inconvenient to speak, and it is very inappropriate for General Li to express his opinions on these issues, because the matter between you and Miss Li is already clear to the whole thistle, and the difference between public and private is very harmful to people's reputation." Siqin Mi asked Zhuang Xun to give up this kind of idea quickly, and this kind of idea should not be there.
"I know, it's best not to have anything to do with the Li family now, right, this won't affect the support of them after getting Jiannan Dao, maybe we still have a way out for them." Zhuang Xun now let go of his thoughts, and suddenly felt that the bottom line had plummeted, and he felt that marrying Li Ruxi was easy to earn, eating two fish and two fish, and marrying a hidden rich woman.
"This can be a reason for you to convince your future father-in-law to help you, deal with this negotiation first, and then we will sum up how to marry my sister as a flat wife in a polite and courteous manner." Siqin Mi is looking at Zhuang Xun's head with satisfaction.
"Okay, but shouldn't you deal with Mrs. Jiang first? How do you think I should naturally say what I wanted, and what should I get from her, money, or supplies? Zhuang Xun was thinking about how to naturally say that I have no money and no one, rich woman, you can help me.
"Just say it directly, the old rules, even if she makes any excessive demands, kicking Langjun is agreeing to it, and kicking it twice is opposition." Siqin Mi looked at Zhuang Xun's appearance of gains and losses, and comforted him.
She believed that Mrs. Jiang must have a reason for treating Zhuang Xun with blue eyes, no matter what the reason was, even if she knew that Zhuang Xun had the imperial vein, it didn't matter, as long as she was willing to help Zhuang Xun gain a firm foothold in the new official place, then other problems were not a problem.
And Mrs. Jiang, who was questioned by Zhuang and discussed, was reading the information from afar at the moment.
Jiaohao is rich and free to stretch, looking beautiful and intoxicating, especially the white greasy that she inadvertently revealed, you can see a little bit of jade bones and ice muscles, and her noble face is graceful and gorgeous, smiling slightly, and captivating the country and the city.
"Madam, is there any good news from Zhao Guo?" Lan Qiu looked at Jiang Xian's smile and guessed that something good must have happened to Zhao Guo.
"This year's grain harvest is bumper again, and this is the seventh year." Jiang Xian's smile became richer.
"Is it worth the mother's pleasure?" Lan Qiu still couldn't understand Jiang Xianqi's happiness, it was just a bumper crop, as long as the country was in good shape, it didn't seem to be a very difficult thing.
Zhao Guo's national fortune is strong, and Jiang Xianqi is in charge, isn't it normal to have this kind of achievement.
"But this is a bumper yield for seven consecutive years, and the output has increased every year, especially last year and this year, I didn't regulate it in Zhao State, if there is no help from the gods, how can the bumper yield be, which means that there is another god standing behind Zhao State."
The news of the bumper grain harvest will not make Jiang Xianqi happy like this, but it is a happy event to be sure that a god has joined, and it is still a god of agriculture.
"Congratulations, madam, the reunification of Kyushu is just around the corner." Lan Qiu congratulated and said that the more gods, the stronger the country, and the greater the probability of naturally unifying Kyushu.
"That is, apart from Zhao Guo, I can't think of anyone else who can have the ability to unify Kyushu." Jiang Xianqi said proudly that it can be said that Zhao Guo was created by her, and of course she will be proud.
"As long as you get out of the predicament of the two countries, as long as you get out of this predicament, Zhao Guo will definitely go down the mountain like a tiger, and the tiger will occupy the entire north of Kyushu." Thinking about Zhao Guo after breaking the blockade, Jiang Xianqian is already winning.
"It will definitely be, madam, Chengguo and Yu have defeated Youguo, do we still want to stay in Jizhou?" Lan Qiu continued to ask.
After all, the purpose of coming to Jizhou before was to prevent Youguo from becoming bigger, and now Youguo has broken half of its legs, let alone getting bigger, and it is thankful that he doesn't have civil strife.
"What are you doing back to Zhao?" Jiang Xianqian put down the information and couldn't help but pick it up and look at it.
"Don't you go back to Zhao? Why? Lan Qiu was puzzled.
"It's very simple, since the emperor has been able to stand alone, why should I, an old woman, interfere with his decision-making, I just need to help him take care of Jizhou in the backyard and wait for him to free up his hands to get it."
Jiang Xianqi is not the kind of person who has a strong desire for power, as a cultivator, she does not have the desire for power in the world, cultivation first cultivates the mind, and the practitioner may have obsessions, but it is basically not manifested in the position of power.
"Also, Your Majesty has been able to take charge on his own, Zhao Guo is his country after all, he is the son of heaven who unified Kyushu, and it is really inappropriate to be under your wing all the time." Lan Qiu agreed.
"Then will we stay in Chengguo to maintain the situation in the three countries?" Lan Qiu guessed what to do next.
"Sort of, at present, the Yu Kingdom has reached the verge of extinction, and the You Kingdom does not have the ability to unify Jizhou, even with the support of the Demon Clan." Jiang Xianqi analyzed and said.
"Now it's time to press it into a country." Jiang Xianqian thought about it and decided to say.
"Didn't you say that adult internal strife will collapse on its own? Why is it going to be pressed into a country again? Lan Qiu recalled Jiang Xian's evaluation of the Three Kingdoms before she came.
Youguo is a tiger wolf, can't let him smell a trace of flesh, Yu Guo is about to rot wood, but it is not completely dead, it works well, it can grow new sprouts from old trees, Chengguo is stable and vain, it will be broken when touched, and it will fight and collapse by itself if you don't pay attention to yourself.
"However, now that Chengguo has a Li Pingyuan, Kyushu is famous, even the remote Yue Kingdom in the south knows that Li Pingyuan crossed half a ferry and destroyed the deeds of the main force of the Youjun army, if Chengguo uses this knife well, it is very likely that the two countries will first sweep away Yuyou and unify Jizhou." Jiang Xian said quietly.
"This ...... Mother, what should I do? Lan Qiu also panicked.
"The mourners also want to know."
