0438 [Seek the Near and Far]

After coming back to his senses, Li Yan persuaded: "The Emperor thinks twice." ”

Zhao Ji glanced at him with contempt, and said in a deep voice: "The land on the Northwest Fifth Road and Hedong Road is barren, and a large amount of grain and grass needs to be transported from the south every year, and there is a lot of money. The reason why Han Zhen'er was reluctant to take the northwest and east of the river was to let me help him raise it. ”

"The Seed Family, the Qi Family, the Liu Family, and the Fold Family, none of them are worry-free, thinking that I don't know what their ideas are. Oh, what about escaping from the Datong prisoner of war camp and coaxing me as a fool? I can't keep it left and right, so it's better to give it to Jin Ren in exchange for Luzhou. ”

He has now made up his mind to retire in the south, since the Sui and Tang dynasties, after so many years of development, the south has become more and more prosperous.

Even Lingnan, which was once regarded as a place of exile, has now become prosperous due to maritime trade, and there are many literati.

In this way, the Northwest Fifth Road and Hedong Road suddenly became chicken ribs.

The most important thing is that the Northwest Fifth Road has existed in name only, and it is all towards pseudo-Qi behind its back.

These two places are in hand, and it costs a lot of money every year, and the key is to raise them for Han Zhen, so how can Zhao Ji bear it?

Isn't it fragrant to keep this money for himself to repair the palace?

Anyway, there is a natural danger of the Yangtze River to defend, and there is no difference between these two places, so it is better to exchange for Luzhou.

"The Emperor is wise!"

After listening to the analysis, Li Yan suddenly realized, and then looked at Zhao Ji with admiration.

Regardless of whether it was pretended or not, at least Zhao Ji's vanity was greatly satisfied.

Zhao Ji was proud and ordered: "The Northwest Fifth Road and Hedong Road can be given to them, but one Luzhou is not enough, you have to add the jade seal of the country!" ”

Destroy the pseudo-Qi, with the heirloom jade seal, even if the Central Plains is lost.

Jin Ren is a barbarian, and he can be majestic for decades with his sharp spirit, but Zhao Ji doesn't take it to heart.

The Liao State is a lesson from the past, although the Western Xia has not perished, but it is also the twilight of the Western Mountain, and the same is true of the Jin State.

In contrast, pseudo-Qi is the real threat.

Li Yan bowed down and said, "Slave and maid, let's do it." ”

"Wait."

Zhao Ji stopped him, and said calmly: "Don't be in a hurry, talk to them more, otherwise it will be too easy, and the golden people will only gain an inch." ”

Li Yan patted his ass: "The Emperor Taishang strategized and played with the Jin Kingdom in applause, and the slaves and maids admired it, but the ridiculous Jin people thought that they had taken a big advantage." ”

"Barbarians are barbarians, and they can't become climates."

Zhao Ji's face was disdainful, and his tone was full of disdain.

Li Yan echoed: "What the Emperor said is true. ”

"That's right."

Zhao Ji seemed to think of something, and suddenly asked, "My good son, is there any news?" ”

"This ...... No news. ”

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, and then asked cautiously, "Can you send the Imperial City Division secret agents to search?" ”

Zhao Ji waved his hand and said, "No need." ”

He is a very ruthless person, and all the emperors and emperors are suffering in Tokyo City, and if he wants to redeem people, he will already spend money to redeem them.

However, after so long, Zhao Ji didn't even mention it.

……

……

on the street.

The wheels run over the bluestone slabs with a crisp sound.

Inside the incense car, Ma Shuyao was puzzled: "A-Niang, that house is good, why don't you want it?" ”

In the past few days, Ma Shuyao has been taking his mother to play in Tokyo City.

It is only today that I began to look for a place to live.

Lin Wanqing smiled bitterly: "You girl, you really don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are, the rent of the house is 800 yuan a month, how can A-Niang and your Aunt Li afford it?" ”

The consumption of Tokyo City, she has learned these days.

It's okay to eat and drink, but the house price is scary.

For the houses in the inner city, the minimum rent has to start at 200 yuan, and the location is slightly better, and it can't be lowered at all without 5 or 600 yuan.

Ma Shuyao chuckled and said, "It turns out that it's about money, and I still have a lot of money here." ”

When she first passed the door, Ma Yanmin bought her a lot of dowry, adding up to more than 100,000 yuan, and she basically didn't spend much.

Lin Wanqing shook her head: "Silly girl, you are all married, how can my mother spend your money." Besides, you have to use money everywhere in the palace, if you don't even have the money for the reward, what will the palace maids and eunuchs think? ”

Seeing that her mother's face was resolute, Ma Shuyao had to give up.

I wandered around until the evening, but I couldn't find a suitable place to stay.

In fact, there are two houses, Lin Wanqing is still very satisfied, but as soon as she heard the price, she was immediately persuaded to quit.

sent his mother and Aunt Li back to the pavilion, and Ma Shuyao returned to the palace.

In the Yanfu Palace, Han Zhen was arguing with his two daughters.

Zhao Fujin, An Niang and Yan Niang sat around playing leaf cards, and Zhao Fujin and Fu Qingyi watched the battle on the sidelines.

Leaf cards appeared as early as the Han Dynasty, is the prototype of mahjong and poker, the rules are similar to the bridge of later generations, is a test of skills and computing power.

Seeing Ma Shuyao's sullen appearance, Han Zhen quipped: "What's the matter, this is, pout, who bullied Youyou?" ”

"Husband, my mother is angry with me."

Ma Shuyao sat beside Han Zhen angrily and told him about finding a house.

After listening, Han Zhen chuckled and said, "Your mother is also for your good." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Fujin on the side proposed: "Yoyo, my princess's mansion is still empty, it is better to let your mother and them live in the princess's mansion for the time being." ”

Ma Shuyao smiled bitterly: "I appreciate my sister's kindness, but my mother and Aunt Li definitely don't want to live, they are very temperamental." ”

It can't be helped.

Zhao Fujin couldn't help either.

"They still say that they can't do it today, so they will go to live outside the city, and the husband will find a way." Ma Shuyao grabbed Han Zhen's arm and began to be coquettish.

Han Zhen chuckled and said, "This is easy to do, the mansions of many prisoners and the Zhao Song clan have been confiscated before, and they have been idle. Tomorrow, I will ask the people of Shaofu Temple to go with you, pick a house to rent to them, and charge a symbolic rent of 100 yuan. ”

He didn't plan to sell these mansions, but planned to keep them for the future to reward the meritorious civil and military generals.

The left and right sides are empty, so it's better to let them live for the time being.

After all, she is her mother-in-law, and she finally came to the capital, but she can't really let her live outside the city, what is that like.

"Husband, you're so nice."

Ma Shuyao was overjoyed, and stepped forward to peck Han Zhen on the face.

Seeing this, Shengnu suddenly pursed his lips and shouted, "Daddy, Shengnu also wants to kiss." ”

"Good, good."

Han Zhen bent down and leaned his face over.

The little one took a sip and giggled.

When Zhao Fujin saw this scene, a flash of happiness flashed in his eyes.

The daughter used to be very lonely, but now she lives in the palace, with Xiao Heyue as a playmate, and many people love her.

After solving a matter of concern, Ma Shuyao was in a much better mood, looked around, and asked, "By the way, why haven't you seen plain clothes and green bamboo in the past few days?" ”

Han Zhen explained: "Those two girls were stunned for a while, and they learned a trick out of nowhere, saying that they could enlarge their breasts. ”

"Really?"

Ma Shuyao's eyes lit up, and he immediately got up and said, "I'll take a look." ”

After that, the smoke disappeared.

Han Zhen looked at Zhao Fujin's trembling fruits, and quipped: "These stupid girls are really willing to seek the near and far, just ask you." ”

"Your Majesty~"

A trace of shame flashed in Zhao Fujin's eyes, and he sneered.

Zhao Fujin was busy and nodded, "What the husband said is right. ”

It is true that the constitution of people cannot be generalized.

Zhao Fujin is a talented person, and he can't be envious.

……

Following.

Ma Kuo's movements were fast, and in just three days, he was ready.

In the vertical arch hall, Ma Kuan bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, Weichen is about to travel far away, and I am here to say goodbye." ”

Han Zhen said in a deep voice: "I should have sent you and made a trip for you, but I was afraid that the news would leak out." I owe the wine first, and when I wait for you to come back, we will drink the celebration wine together! ”

Ma Kuo said heroically: "Weichen will definitely do him three big bowls, and I hope that Your Majesty will not blame Weichen Meng Lang." ”

"Haha!"

Han Zhen laughed and patted the case: "I will drink with you, if you don't get drunk, you won't return!" ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen retires!"

Ma Kuo took a deep breath, bowed deeply, and then turned to leave.

Ma Kuan left, accompanied by a few Western Regions guides and a hundred guards of the forbidden army.

These 100 forbidden troops are all the elite of the elite.

Han Zhen promised them that everyone on this trip would have a settling-in allowance of fifty yuan, and if they could complete the task and come back alive, everyone would be promoted to three levels in a row.

Zhao Fujin lived in the palace, and Han Zhen originally planned to hold a canonization ceremony for her, but was refused.

At her request, everything was simple.

So much so, except for a few officials from the Ministry of Rites, other people in the court didn't know about it at all.
