In ancient times, the sky was exceptionally clear and clear, and the moon hung high at night, reflecting the stars.

On this rarely bright night, when even the stones on the path could be seen clearly, the two walked on the road from the barracks to the city.

"Seeing the orange disappear today, I just found out that you are here, you came with Wu Mei, right?"

"Hmm."

"I didn't expect you to come in person."

"The queen invited me." Qin Zhanying said lightly, "She said that Uncle wants to be a hero who died on the battlefield, just like the Sea King and Princess Jingzhao." ”

It was a brother and sister who grew up with Emperor Kailong and died in battle, and he was forever wounded.

Queen Keluo didn't plan to let her husband's early death become a pain in her life, she said to Qin Zhanying: "Your uncle promised me, saying that when I become the queen mother, I don't mind raising a male pet and secretly raising a child, as long as it doesn't threaten you, it's fine." ”

Emperor Cheng'an owes Queen Luo's child, and he can't pay it back in this life, let other men give it after he dies, anyway, out of sight is pure, mainly because Emperor Cheng'an consciously didn't live with the queen in his early years, and the queen will come back later, and they can be considered even, but ......

"Think about it carefully, it's hard to find a man in this world who is as generous and open-minded as your uncle, rather than worrying about having children at an old age, it's better to support each other with him to live the rest of your life." Queen Luo sighed, "If you find another man to serve, you may not be as good as your uncle." ”

Because Queen Luo was going to kneel down and beg Qin Zhanying, Qin Zhanying was afraid of her, so she set people up and simply came over in person to replace Emperor Cheng'an back.

Qiu Yu smiled: "Do you also have times when you are afraid of a person?" ”

Qin Zhanying: "It's not that I'm afraid of her, it's mainly that the elders kneel down to me, and there will be too much trouble, so it's better for me to avoid her." Before leaving, he deliberately told Queen Luo tactfully that he would not use this trick in the future, it was not good to force people in this way, and it was easy to make the prince angry.

But with Qiu Yu's understanding of the princes and nobles of this era, many people have no effect except to collapse the city gate with their heads, but the two members of Emperor Cheng'an are really okay, not to mention their ability, their character is okay, just let the husband and wife be separated, and it is really not good to die in one life.

It's just that Qiu Yu didn't expect that Emperor Cheng'an actually had the will to die.

"Anyone will want to die at some point in their life." Qin Zhanying was very calm, "Aren't you too?" ”

Qiu Yu was taken aback: "How do you know?" ”

Modern people survive in ancient times, unless they stand in a position where everyone is exploited and no one can oppress them at the beginning, or they are born with a strong will, it is easy to have the idea of suicide, Qiu Yu decided to give up trying to die back to his hometown after realizing that this era belonged to Qin Zhanying.

But soon Qiu Yu realized that Ying Ying didn't know whether Qiu Yu was suicidal or not, but in this era, death is the norm, even a royal family like Qin Zhanying who was born in Tianlong cannot be an exception.

"That should be a long way away for you and me." Qin Zhanying stood at the door of the inn, the only place in the town that could accommodate outsiders, the layout was shabby, the night breeze was blowing, raising the young man's long hair, and the black silk reflected a little candlelight in the night.

Qin Zhanying has the temperament that seems to be a god or a Buddha, but is actually a demon.

The little prince looked at Qiu Yu, and stopped talking, he wanted to tell the other party why he could gradually feel the beauty of life, and wanted to say how important Qiu Yu occupied in his growing time, but he didn't want Qiu Yu to feel abrupt, so he just said: "Just send it here." ”

"Yingying, why did you let me fight Lao Shaanxi."

Qin Zhanying asked rhetorically: "Isn't it good to give you more opportunities to save up military merits?" I need reliable people in the military, you have talent, then you come. ”

Qiu Yu: "You're still weird." ”

took the initiative to stuff military merits into his subordinates, who is this to help him fight in the ring? At present, it is Cheng Kailu and the Jiang family who are vying for the dominance of the border army, and Cheng Kailu is about to succeed, so what about him? Dealing with Cheng Kailu's backhand?

This speculation is not wrong, but what Qin Zhanying didn't say is that this time he came over because he knew in his heart that the situation in Shanludao was complicated, and he was more suitable than Emperor Cheng'an to deal with things here, public opinion is like a knife, Qin Zhanying is good at using opera to do propaganda among the people, but before him, it was the literati who mastered the knife of public opinion, and their verbal criticism and writing could really force people to death.

With his temperament, he may also leave a reputation for deviance in the history books in the future, and he will inevitably affect his relatives and friends.

Qin Zhanying will be the emperor in the future, and if others talk about him at most, they may not be able to do anything to him, but Qiu Yu is different, it just so happens that Qin Zhanying needs to have reliable and credible people in the military, and he wants to support Qiu Yu, so he gives Qiu Yu a chance to go further.

Lao Shaanxi Road is not difficult to fight, give enough logistics, then the hard village will definitely be able to win the battle, the military generals are like a mirror to this, Qin Zhanying does not come over in person, this opportunity to fight Lao Shaanxi will not fall on Qiu Yu's head.

"Wait." Qiu Yu called out to Qin Zhanying and put up his collar for him, "Don't freeze, besides, if you want to stay in Shanludao, you have to wear more clothes than in Dajing, and you have to bring a good guard when you go out, it's not stable here." ”

Qin Zhanying: "I know, I have made progress in martial arts recently, and my mother told me that in addition to the sword, I also need to cultivate a off-hand weapon, and I, I am practicing." ”

Qiu Yu: "That's right, it's always good to master a few more weapons, don't you have more skills, I also practiced the off-hand weapon, by the way, are you used to using your new weapon?" ”

Qin Zhanying: "I'm quite used to it, I have to use that every year, and I've already made it cooked." ”

The little prince looked up at Qiu Yu slightly, the two looked at each other for a while, Qin Zhanying wanted Qiu Yu to take two steps forward, but Qiu Yu took a few steps back, saluted him, and left.

Qiu Yu's steps were fast, and he didn't want to be heard by others, so he shook his head when he walked out of the street.

Qin Zhanying went back and shouted to wish Dawu to bathe in water, Meisha flashed through the window when undressing, a delicate locket fell on the table, the candlelight shook for a moment, the little prince looked immovable, first soaked in hot water to relieve fatigue, and then changed into soft bedclothes and sat on the bed, combing his hair in the New Year's mirror.

He has been working too much recently, and he has not slept well, so he can only ensure that he sleeps until dawn through the head meridians.

The young man in the mirror has a face that looks gentle and compassionate like a jade bodhisattva, and there are no waves in his eyes, but unfortunately there is a big fool who always doesn't react at all when he looks at him.

The little prince raised his hand and shook it, and the internal force actually sucked the rouge box in his hand out of thin air, he opened the box, looked at the mirror, and wiped some lips with his fingertips, and paused halfway through the wipe.

It's the most awkward when you're halfway through makeup.

The face in the mirror that had been stained with lipstick and suddenly became bright and striking with surprise, as if he had just realized what he had done, wiped it clean with a handkerchief.

Cover the quilt and sleep!

Emperor Cheng'an was driven back to Dajing by his nephew Lianren with his own soldiers, leaving only Cheng Kailu and the Jiang family to continue to lead the border army, and Qin Zhanying himself asked his uncle for the title of supervising the army, which was considered a good life.

Emperor Cheng'an was very worried before leaving: "Zhan Ying, you are here, who will give Qiu Yu the logistics to beat Lao Shaanxi?" ”

Qin Zhanying was helpless: "Let him find Liu Ziyan by himself." ”

Emperor Cheng'an: "

Is that really okay? ”

Qin Zhanying told the truth: "I'm still a little looking forward to something wrong." ”

Before leaving, it was all arranged, the food and winter clothes were all piled up in the warehouse, Qiu Yu took the strip and went to Liu Ziyan to get it, if it can go wrong in this link, then the third plow hanging over many people's heads can go down logically.

Hearing this, everyone sweated profusely, and said in their hearts, just your bait pile warehouse is just waiting for the posture of cutting fish, who else dares to come up and pick up the hook? It's not that I'm tired of being alive.

After saying that, it was a parting, Qiu Yu followed behind Emperor Cheng'an, glanced back at Yingying, and found that the young man was standing in place, watching him quietly, obviously this child rarely showed any strong emotions, but at this moment he felt that Qin Zhanying's eyes had something in his eyes that he couldn't understand.

As the prince grew up, his mind became more and more difficult to fathom.

After sending these people away, it's time to get down to business.

There is iron ore in Shanludao, but the iron ore from Shibapan to Laiye is controlled by dignitaries.

After Qin Zhanying came over, she first convened the local chamber of commerce and various clans and invited everyone to have a meal.

At the banquet, the prince was polite: "Lone came in a hurry, and the hospitality was not good." ”

Everyone at the banquet immediately panicked and said: "Where is it, we should entertain the prince, but now even the meeting gift looks shabby, the prince doesn't think we are rude." ”

In fact, after knowing that the prince was coming, the local big families who had already learned from various sources that the prince was extremely murderous took out the treasure at the bottom of the box, and immediately offered it when they met.

Shanludao has been a gentry since ancient times, and many people have broken bones and tendons with officialdom, so they naturally know the truth of behaving in the world - the prince may not remember who gave the gift, but he must remember the one who did not give the gift!

The bright red coral trees, the antique paintings and calligraphy that have been passed down for many years, the glittering gold and silver jewelry, if it weren't for the fact that there were no singers and dancers at the table, they were all the masters in power.

As long as Qin Zhanying wants, everyone is willing to send the most precious treasure to him, just for the power he holds in his hands.

At this time, the prince behaved as gentle and charitable as his face, and he asked many people about the situation in their families, whether they were doing well under the Meng people, and whether they had been wronged and wronged.

As soon as these words came out, there were really a group of people who wanted to express their feelings, and the people who were still in Shanludao at this time were naturally Han people, and it was impossible to say that there was no grievance under the Meng people, not to mention that scolding the Meng people at this time was also loyal to the new master, and naturally there was no one who did not work hard.

Qin Zhanying smiled and listened to them rambling for half an hour, without the slightest impatience, everyone must have felt that the prince's opening was at least not a Hongmen banquet.

If you can have such patience, the city government must have it, but it is better for people to be patient than anything else.

Sure enough, halfway through the sentence, the prince mentioned that he wanted to do business.

"The border army is stationed here, and it will be too expensive to transport many items from Dajing, so if you build some local businesses that can supply military supplies, the treasury will account for the majority, and the lower ones can also contribute money and materials to shares."

Qin Zhanying said frankly: "Lone is not good at fighting, but at least he must not let the sergeants go hungry to fight." ”

As soon as these words came out, a person surnamed Fan immediately stood up and said, "I am willing to serve His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

"Don't worry, listen to what Gu said first."

Qin Zhanying also didn't want the note given by Zhu Dawu: "First of all, grain, this is the top priority, in addition to the military tun, you also have to buy separately, I don't know if there are reliable grain merchants in the local area." ”

Soon a group of people reported to the house, saying that they could do this business.

Qin Zhanying: "The army has its own regulations for the purchase of grain, whether it is the price or the quality of the grain, there are already models and standards, we will not buy bad grain, and then there are clothes, shoes and socks, pots and pans for eating, these are used by everyone." ”

"Then Yu Jun invited Zhang Hua, the best imperial doctor in Zeguo, to build a military medical battalion, train sergeants to heal their own wounds, and increase the survival rate of sergeants, which is to buy a batch of medicinal materials, I don't know if there are reliable medicinal material merchants in Shanludao, if this business is done well, Shanludao will plant cowpox and popularize water Gu medicine, and it will be handed over to these households."

Qin Zhanying released an important confidence, that is, to follow him and have meat to eat.

He didn't come to exploit you, but to make a fortune with everyone.

At the end of the banquet, the gentry of the Huang family took his son out, Lao Tzu walked slowly, his son walked fast, and said to Lao Tzu: "I don't want the prince to be such a kind and kind temperament, and his appearance is like a heavenly man." ”

Master Huang glanced at his son: "Yes, that person is not a good match, you don't go out for a while, so as not to suffer." ”

Young Master Huang was puzzled: "Dad, what's wrong?" ”

Master Huang looked left and right and lowered his voice: "Tonight, do you see someone surnamed Kong on the table?" ”

When Young Master Huang thought about it, he really didn't!

The men of the Confucian family are more noble than the other, and there is no less of them at the banquet of Shanludao, and the descendants of the Confucian family of this generation are all recognized by those who have heads and faces in Shanludao!

"The wind is blowing."

Master Huang sighed, he is familiar with the style of the Confucian family, as long as the dynasty changes, they will immediately offer a table to show their loyalty, and then knight, continue to be the most proud person in their Shanlu Road, but now the Kong family has not handed over the table to Yu Guo, and Yu Guo does not give him a knighthood, but just let Kong Youjie go to the barracks for a meal, this matter is too delicate!

Who knew that on the second day, the big families in Shanludao heard that the prince wanted to buy iron from the first few iron mines under the Kong family, and the Kong family immediately offered the iron ore with interest, but the deed of the mine was given, but the miners in the mine were not also given.

The prince didn't speak, but just urged Kong Youjie again, asking him when he could bring over their field records, and besides, a few officials from the criminal department brought by the prince were going to the local yamen to receive those files, as if they wanted to take Meng Guo's case into his hands, hey, guess what? In less than two days, several peasant men who had been imprisoned for resisting forced labor were released!

That night, the village where the peasants were located burned to the ground.

In such a treacherous situation, the prince was actually alarmed by the case and wanted to see the victims in the farm in person, but unexpectedly, a Meng man appeared halfway through, squeaking and screaming to assassinate the prince!

Then these people were slapped away by the prince.

That's right, the prince just raised his hands and slapped everyone away!

Qin Zhanying said in her heart that her way of luring the snake out of the hole can work, and this group of people in Shanludao is different from those in Dajing who have been scared, and they are fat.

He sneered, grabbed his newly practiced off-hand weapon from behind, and shouted: "All caught alive!" ”

The cold light of the scythe flashed in the night. ：，m..，.
