123 Sense of smell (two in one)

The prince arrived, and the audience knelt on the ground.

When Qin Zhanying walked into the Zhejiang Palace, Jiang Lang experienced for the first time what a beauty can make Peng Shen shine, Qin Zhanying is such a beauty, where he stands, where is Hexi Spring Scenery and Fairyland on Earth.

The fifteen-year-old boy is very tall, much taller and slender than his cousin, who is nearly nine years older, and when Qin Zhanqi stepped forward to salute, it can also be clearly seen that his skeleton is larger and his body is stronger and more powerful, this is not how strong Qin Zhanying is, the fifteen-year-old boy has heart and pulse problems, and his stomach is not good, this can still be strong It must be a medicine.

It's Qin Zhanqi's problem.

The prince also looks thin, but Qin Zhanqi is like a shriveled thin dog in front of him, ridiculous and funny, the pretentious prince of Zhejiang is compared to a mediocre mortal, of course, he is the most disgusting group of mortals.

No wonder since the prince returned to Yu, Qin Zhanqi has never been willing to stand on the same occasion as him.

Princess Gu looked at the figure of the crown prince and couldn't help but think maliciously, the king of Zhejiang is also a thin man, but he doesn't look short at all, but he only looks for those petite and slender women and young girls, so most of the children born are also short and thin, and now they are forty or fifty years old, but they begin to prefer tall women and ask them to have children.

Qin Zhanqi is different from his father, he does not prefer women who are shorter and weaker than himself, but likes to marry tall and excellent women home, and then abuse and domesticate them into obedient appearances.

Concubine Gu is a clever woman, she knows that after the prince leaves tonight, she is afraid that the woman in the backyard will have a bad time, Qin Zhanqi always likes to be polite to the corporal, and when he returns to the mansion, he will vent his dissatisfaction on the woman, originally only the tallest and most beautiful Concubine Jiang was pushed into the guard room, and even Concubine Xu was pushed in a few days ago, because she didn't dare to look at the prince more, for fear of attracting Qin Zhanqi's villain.

Qin Zhanying didn't come over empty-handed, he gave a fist-sized pure golden longevity peach, and was invited to sit down, and Qin Zhanqi poured wine diligently.

Qin Zhanying: "Don't drink, keep filial piety." ”

In fact, after the first year of filial piety, he can drink, but Qin Zhanying really can't drink, it's not that he has a bad amount of alcohol, but Qiu Yu played dice with him before, Qin Zhanying won once Qiu Yu ate a banana, Qiu Yu won once, Qin Zhanying couldn't drink until he was twenty years old.

Qiu Yu ate thirty bananas that day and got the assurance she wanted after the thirty-first roll of the dice.

What the prince was not happy about, no one could force him, so he only slowly peeled an orange, but he didn't eat for a long time when he went out on a business trip before, which led to a little stomach acid reflux, so he didn't eat the orange after peeling it, so he put it in place.

Qin Zhanqi secretly hated the prince's caution in his heart, and he had been careful to accompany him to talk, so Qin Zhanying asked a few questions related to the people's livelihood in Zhejiang and Hangzhou Province.

"Zhejiang, Jiangsu textile industry is very prosperous, there silk is also the best, the current Zhejiang-Hangzhou Road mulberry field, how much grain field? If a family concentrates on serving mulberry fields, is it enough to chew for a year? ”

This asked Qin Zhanying what he was most concerned about, what was the grain self-sufficiency rate in Zhejiang and Hangzhou Province, and whether there was any incident of mulberry fields encroaching on the grain field area, resulting in silk cannibalism.

In fact, Qin Zhanying also knew in her heart that silk eating people must have it, just like sugar eating people also appeared on Qiongya Island for a time.

But when he heard Qin Zhanqi swearing: "The local officials in Zhejiang and Hangzhou Province are quite virtuous, the officials and the people are harmonious, and the grain is full of granaries. ”

Qin Zhanying chuckled in her heart, her heart was broken, and there was also a problem with the granary there.

In order to be able to go north to kill Beimeng in the future, Emperor Cheng'an has also done practical things over the years, and he not only let Qin Zhanying take the Lu family army to tear up those territories and implement the land tax, but also to improve the shortcomings of the local area and try his best to improve the people's livelihood, the ultimate goal is to let the people have more children and dare to have children.

How to open a new territory without exploding the population!

Population is wealth!

And people have to eat food to live, so here can be an equation: food equals wealth.

Emperor Cheng'an has worked hard for so many years, although there are still natural and man-made disasters, but many places that have changed the tax per acre, killed the landlords, and improved public security are indeed more populous.

When Qin Zhanying was six years old, the population of Nanyu was only a little more than 30 million, and now if you recount it, 36 million should be there, and if you add the 9 million population of Zeguo, it will be 45 million, which is also the first time in nearly 150 years that the total population of a country with Han people as the main body of rule has surpassed that of Northern Meng.

However, the population of Zhejiang-Hangzhou Province is still only 4 million, and even the population of some counties has plummeted from 30,000 to 21,000 in seven years, and the population has fallen by nearly one-third in seven years.

Qin Zhanying didn't care that this was Qin Zhanqi's birthday, and directly asked the question and asked what the population of a certain county was, why the details of the disaster there were not reported to Dajing, and your wife Gu's mother family had a grange there, so she should know something, right?

Qin Zhanqi had already been asked in a cold sweat, and he couldn't answer any of the questions Qin Zhanying asked, so he could only laugh and say, "I've been in Dajing, how do I know what's going on underneath."

And Concubine Gu, who was suddenly mentioned, looked up in shock, and the invisible man couldn't pretend anymore.

Unfortunately, Concubine Gu knows the reason very well, whether it is the Gu family's encroachment on grain fields with mulberry fields for the benefit of silk, or the fact that the Gu family has a large number of hidden tenant farmers, before getting married, Concubine Gu, who obtained a large number of dowries through the house fight, found out, but if she dared to say this, she would be sick and die tonight!

In the end, the treasures that Qin Zhanqi, the prince of Zhejiang, wanted to give to Qin Zhanying, not to let people drink wine in order to harm him, but to resist Qin Zhanying's questioning, and quickly pulled them out.

A slender figure dressed in a colorful silk coat was barefoot, with jasper bells tied to its ankles, and floated into the banquet like the wind and danced.

Qin Zhanying: ...... This is your baby, huh?

At this moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really felt that he was a big fool to bring a pure golden longevity peach to the banquet.

There is no food to eat when you come over, the drinks are only wine, ask for some information, Qin Zhanqi has no ink on his chest, and he can't say one, two, three.

Emperor Cheng'an personally commented, "The article is not as good as the faint sect, the faint sect is not good at governing the country, the words are okay, and you can write two sour poems, but I didn't expect those officials to find that the big fool who has a little ability and imperial power has made the country a bloody storm and eaten a lesson, and then when he taught Qin Zhanqi, he directly led people to the fool, and this kid was also completely abolished." ”

Concubine Gu seems to be a little smarter, but her surname is Gu, she definitely won't tell the truth, and looking at her haggard and emaciated similar to the hungry people who can only be covered with heavy makeup, with Qin Zhanying's years of experience in fighting hunger and disasters, Concubine Gu is definitely hungry and thin, and hungry and thin people's brains are generally more sluggish than normal.

Concubine Jiang held a thin sword, dancing like a butterfly wearing flowers.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince almost sensed Qin Zhanqi's plan, he felt both ridiculous and speechless in his heart, and admired Lan Aluo's medicinal fragrance for a while, but if Gu Ge Lao was not tortured by the medicinal incense, his mental state was shaky, and he would not let Qin Zhanqi use such a faint trick.

And you let a dancing girl do this work, you let your side concubine and the only daughter of the Jiang family come to lust|Seduce the prince's cousin, is it appropriate to step on a horse!

Qin Zhanqi snorted lightly, feeling that he had finally regained some face, he raised his chin: "His Royal Highness the Prince? How are the treasures of my Zhejiang Palace? ”

Qin Zhanying endured and endured, but he simply couldn't bear it, he said truthfully: "It's full of pity that you can't get enough to eat." ”

As a person with a high level in the field of calligraphy and painting, Qin Zhanying is aesthetic! And his aesthetics have been recognized by Lu Xiaoxuan, Qiu Yu, Emperor Cheng'an and many others, praising him for his high-level vision, and he has to ask him to review the drawings when he builds the Zeguo Imperial Garden.

In Qin Zhanying's aesthetic concept, if a person wants to talk about beauty, he must first eat well, adjust his mental state, take a hot bath, put on clean clothes, and look human, otherwise it will only make him want to throw people into the porridge shed.

And the clothes are not cut well enough, the color matching is dirty, and they are obviously wearing colorful clothes like flowers and butterflies, why do you wear jasper jewelry! Bright color and bright green, it looks even more finished, it is simply torturing the eyes of normal people.

is not as good as Qiu Yu's aesthetics, Yu's brother gave him a dark green velvet robe on his birthday, with pure gold cut-out cuffs and ink embroidery.

The temptation failed, and the crown prince not only did not drink, but also disliked Concubine Jiang.

Concubine Gu and Concubine Jiang couldn't care about the sadness of being forced by their husbands to participate in this kind of next scene for a while, they only felt that the crown prince was really keen, and they really hadn't eaten for a long time!

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sighed before leaving: "I see that the Zhejiang Wangfu is not less greedy, how come the palace from the prince to the female dependents can't even afford to eat, coming to you at night is like seeing a nest of starving ghosts." ”

Leaving behind this sentence that made people's legs weak, he waved his sleeves and left, full of bad luck, feeling that his pure golden longevity peach might as well be played with by his own thin dog rabbit.

Jiang Lang looked at Qin Zhanying's back, revealing a look that seemed to cry and laugh.

A-Niang is right, the little son of the Lu family is indeed very good-looking, tall, with a good temperament, and a rich and noble style, at a glance, he knows that he will not be poor if he lives with him, and his speech is a little poisonous, but he feels that he has no malice and is open-minded.

So...... Why did she lead her horse to the river to tread water and play?

After dealing with the affairs of the Zhejiang Palace, Qin Zhanying went back to sleep and went to work on the second day.

Qiu Yu went out with a batch of cowpox and grain and grass, and Qin Zhanying did not stop here, the first thing was to go to the Weilong camp

And those who Qin Zhanqi prepared to spread rumors did not act, and the public opinion in Beijing was unwavering, as if nothing had happened, because the prince gave a gift to the prince of Zhejiang, and some people praised the crown prince for his brotherhood.

Qin Zhanqi paced in the study irritably: "Why is there no movement?" Those people took my money! Zhao San, you say, what the hell is going on with him! ”

Zhao San, the guard of the Zhejiang Palace, knelt on the ground and was dripping with cold sweat,

What could it be, he thought? It's not that the Zhejiang Palace's palace can't play with the crown prince, and the people they bought to spread rumors are either controlled, or gone, or ...... It was Qin Zhanying's person from the beginning!

The last guess was too terrifying, and Zhao San kept this guess in his heart.

The eunuch who served Qin Zhanqi knelt in front of him and kowtowed: "The master is angry, the minions are incompetent, but the master must not be angry!" ”

This eunuch is the most clever words, Qin Zhanqi was held by his kind words, and he was so angry that he kicked several times before he was blasted out with Zhao San.

The eunuch was kicked in pain, holding his chest and inhaling cold air, Zhao San helped him: "Thank you Father-in-law Le, this favor, Zhao San remembers it." ”

Grandpa Le smiled, gasped and said, "Guard Zhao, don't be busy thanking me, you have seen what scene now...... Let's find a way out as soon as possible. ”

The meaning of this statement is meaningful, Zhao San's heart jumped, he was not satisfied in the palace of the king of Zhejiang, otherwise this errand of finding someone to spread rumors would not fall on him, and those who were clever knew how to avoid it.

I'm afraid this Le Gonggong is not a simple person.

The two didn't speak again, they just helped each other back to take medicine, although the master of the Zhejiang Wangfu had a perverted temperament, but Qin Zhanqi let many of them touch it...... Concubine Jiang.

It is rare to have the opportunity to play with the only daughter of the frontier commander's family, counting them, these people are all accomplices, gathered by wine and wealth, in addition to doing many unseemly things together, and thus condensed into a close whole.

For those who have already given birth to dissenting hearts, the most important thing they should do now is to hide themselves.

At the same time, Jiang Lang received a silver ticket of five thousand taels.

In the past, she always had to pinch, stab, step on, and tease her grandmother's face was pale, and her eyes were wooden, and she secretly brought her a bun with egg and meat foam and shredded vegetables.

"Eat, your mother will take care of you."

Jiang Lang hadn't eaten enough for a long time, she was holding the bun and devouring it, and as she ate it, tears fell.

It was the silver ticket and food that the mother entrusted to her to bring, did the family know what happened to her in the Zhejiang Palace? Knowing that she was ...... by those people

Jiang Lang cried silently while eating, only to feel that the dignity that had been lost had been torn again, but the hatred that had been tortured to the point that he had been suppressed in his heart and did not dare to show his head came to his mind again.

Qin Zhanying roughly sorted out the forces left by her mother in Dajing, and integrated a few new horses that she had gathered, and also figured out Emperor Cheng'an's temperament and attitude towards him, so she could be regarded as having a firm foothold in Yuguo, and began to help Liu Ziyan sort out the household department.

He first slapped the crow to connect with Liu Ziyan for intelligence, and sent the officials of the various ministries and financial contacts in the court that he had combined with intelligence analysis for a while, as well as the relationship network behind them, to Liu Ziyan, and then sent the most business-savvy An to Liu Ziyan's subordinates.

"Your Highness said, let us sort out the Huangzhuang and the Huangshang." An Xiang greeted Liu Ziyan shyly, not daring to underestimate this Lord Liu.

This is a woman who has achieved the third grade in Zeguo, and there is an earl title in hand, after the death of a Shangshu and a squire in the household department, there is also a hard work, the old Shangshu Qifu was temporarily raised from the military generals who told the old man, and he has long been unable to move, and now it is Liu Ziyan who has the real power of the household department!

But Liu Ziyan happily began to teach An Sheng how to manage things, first, she actually felt struggling with the official duties of the Yuguo Household Department, and knew that if this stall continued to last, drinking medicine would not save her! The second is that she also understands that the household department will not be her own territory, and the person who should be in charge of the household department is on the way to the battlefield.

Naturally, it is still very early for An Xian's wrist to completely take over the household, Liu Ziyan estimates that this kid is to be an assistant to himself first, and after growing his brain, he will be sent to other places to sharpen.

She secretly complained to the guard Cai Ye: "I'm so busy, and I have to throw people to me, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is generous, but he is stingy on holidays." ”

Cai Ye was half a foot on the outside, but he could see it more clearly: "Your Highness is helping you." ”

This "you" naturally refers to the female official group, and the female officials of Yu are also divided into mountains, and there are occasional infighting, but in these years, no matter which country the female officials are, they are all regarded as a whole.

It can also be understood in this way: men make mistakes, but everyone only takes them as an example, and the public is too lazy to shoot the whole gender, and female officials make mistakes, and everyone will say "women can't do it".

In the face of this social environment, if Her Majesty the Empress was not determined, she would have been crushed by the pressure of "I can't make mistakes and affect other women".

Qin Zhanying wrote so many investigation notes, saying that he was not clear and did not understand the delicate things between different genders, it was a lie, as a power creature above any gender, he also knew very well that if Liu Ziyan wanted to stay in the officialdom of Yu State for a long time, and would not be pulled down by someone because of isolation and helplessness one day in the future, he should form a party.

She also has her own mountain in Yu, not to mention that her relatives are all over the government and the opposition, and it is necessary to spread all over a certain department or region, which is the only way for a big official.

Liu Ziyan also realized what Cai Ye meant, and she lost her voice and said, "I thought that His Highness was taboo for the people below to form a party. ”

She has even done a good job of learning Qiu Yu not to form a party and only be loyal to the prince!

Cai Ye: "As long as you are an official, an official will inevitably form a party, and His Royal Highness will reward you with peace to tell you that you should protect yourself." ”

Cai Ye is no longer the simple young man at the beginning, he knows that the prince is burdened by the two countries, and he must have many talents to share it, and the prince is tolerant, if he does not violate his bottom line, the mountains below will be erected one after another, and His Royal Highness did not say who he would kill because of this? Are there any innocent people who were dragged by His Highness to build steps?

Liu Ziyan was stunned: "Yes, there is so much work, he must need a lot of people to do it, I can work like this, of course I have to protect myself, especially since I am a female official, it is much easier for me to fall than a male official, the prince is sympathetic to us." ”

And for the sake of the female official group, she should also continue to work hard, stabilize her position, and strive to climb up...... That being said, she still wants to take a vacation if she can.

"I don't know if Qiu Yu has arrived at the border."

After a few days, he finally received Qiu Yu's letter again, and then Qin Zhanying's expression became serious.

This is how the letter begins.

[Yingying, Zhan Xin'an, I have arrived at the Acropolis and began to organize people to plant cowpox for the whole army, but there is one thing that is not good, yesterday when I passed by the Bowl River, I had nothing to do with fishing, and accidentally caught more than 30 ...... By the time the letter arrives at you, I'll probably be out of luck. 】

Qiu Yu's fish basket is not empty, there must be a big disaster coming! Thinking of the place he was, Qin Zhanying immediately got up and shouted.

"Meisha! Bring me all the information from the north! ”

He urgently flipped through the information, and was so angry that he threw the information at Meisha's feet: "On the second day of the first month of March, the old emperor of Northern Meng was recuperating, if you take a closer look, you can find that the information in the cracks is all saying that the power of Northern Meng has fallen into the hands of the clan Apeda, Apeda is a typical hawk, in previous years, he showed that the people were looted in the west of the border, he came up, and the border will inevitably move troops!" ”

"It's such an obvious thing, why doesn't anyone see it!"

Meisha was full of sweat, he knew that he and the crow were both from the rivers and lakes, and they lacked military experience, so they had never been in the Lu family's army, so it was inevitable that they would have a little less sense of smell, but how did he know that the information of this intelligence could be analyzed so much?

Qin Zhanying pinched her fingers again, picked up her cloak and shook it on her body, and affirmed: "The border has already started, I will go to Longhe Palace to find the uncle." ”

At this time, the crow came to report, saying that Uncle Eucalyptus, the old leader of Baiwenfang, had also entered the palace, and it was the empress who asked him to deliver the letter.

This is a handwritten letter from Lu Xiaoxuan.

[Yingying, my mother speculated that there would be a war on the border between North Bangladesh and Nanyu, and she had already provided additional support for food and medicinal materials, and I heard that Qiu Yu also went there? Let him come back quickly, the specific reason is hard to say, but it is dangerous for him to stay there, let Cheng Kailu take it. 】

The reason why Lu Xiaoxuan can't say it is naturally related to history, but when it comes to history, even if she wants to reveal one or two, she can't make a sound when she opens her mouth, she can't understand how she writes, and she is restricted by invisible chains.

In the historical records, Qin Zhanying's first time in battle was when he was fifteen years old, when he went to the border as a prince to comfort the soldiers and enhance his prestige in the army as the crown prince under the instruction of Emperor Cheng'an, Jiang Bai'an, the commander of the border army, suddenly died for unknown reasons, and the people were gone.

Although the prince won the battle in the end, he was also injured, and the wound was still bleeding when he returned to Dajing, which shows that it was tragic.

Lu Xiaoxuan deliberately threw Cheng Kailu, the reserve commander she taught, to her son's side, and she also had the selfish intention of being a mother, she knew that Qin Zhanying had a strong sense of military smell and a high talent for war, but as a mother, she didn't want Ying Ying to go to the battlefield, at least don't start fighting at the age of fifteen, Ying Ying is not even an adult!

Who knew that Ying Ying didn't go to the battlefield, but Qiu Yu passed in order to plant cowpox, Lu Xiaoxuan was also anxious when she knew about it, didn't this stupid boy say that he admired Yu Wuzong and was proficient in the history of Yu Wuzong's era? How can you take the initiative to get up when you encounter such a dangerous thing?

Qiu Yu can also answer this question at this time: he wants to change Jiang Bai'an's death.

By the way, now Qiu Yu has completely understood why Jiang Bai'an in history died violently.

After reading a letter from Dajing, this old man, who usually had a ruddy complexion and knew that he had high blood pressure and heavy eating habits, collapsed, and Qiu Yu rescued him with acupuncture.

And when Jiang Bai'an fell, Qiu Yu also caught a glimpse of the content of the letter, which was information from Dajing about Jiang Lang, the only daughter of the second generation of the Jiang family, and the content was shocking, enough to make any elder who loved the younger generation angry with myocardial infarction and cerebral hemorrhage on the spot.

But the most important thing now is not far away in Dajing, there is Yingying Town over there, and the most finished thing now is that Jiang Bai'an is half of his body! :,,.
