Chapter 11 The Year and the House
"Some stories are irreproducible legends even in the future, such as the Bashan Sword Field, just like the old powerful gate valve of Changling. ”
The old woman smiled with emotion, looked at Ding Ning, and said: "The merchants of Changling have always been the best at doing business, I heard that the business of those old gate lords is all over the dynasties, so that when the Lu family was destroyed, Yuanwu's army carriages were continuously transported out for five days before all the valuable things in the Lu family's mansion were emptied, is this true?"
Ding Ning nodded and said slowly: "The furniture in the Lu family's mansion is only a tenth of the real wealth of the Lu family, and later most of the wealth of the Lu family should still fall into the hands of Yuan Wu, and some of it will fall into the hands of Zheng Sleeve." ”
The old woman was stunned, couldn't help but shake her head, and said, "That's really unimaginable. ”
Ding Ning looked at the old woman and said, "A country and a dynasty are no more than hundreds of years long, and no more than decades, but some sects and some sects are thousands of years of accumulation. ”
The old woman pondered for a moment and laughed, "An emperor dies and changes the dynasty, but one person in the family lives and continues, so the country is easy to perish and the family is not easy to destroy, but it is so difficult to govern the country as it is to govern the family." ”
Ding Ning slowly turned his head, looked at the wind and snow outside the tent, and said slowly: "Only by the rule of law, by benevolence, and by example, can it last for a long time." ”
The old woman became more and more serious and asked, "What did the Bashan Sword Field at that time, or your master, think at that time?"
"Resolute and resolute, dominate the world and rule again. ”
Ding Ning said, "The faster it is, the fewer variables there are, but when something happens to you, you know that there are many limitations." ”
The old woman thought about everything that Bashan Sword Field had paid, and said sincerely: "It's not easy. ”
......
......
In the palace of Changling, there is a forest.
The reason why it is said to be a forest rather than a garden is because this woodland is not guarded by anyone due to the holy will of Emperor Yuanwu, and any miscellaneous trees are completely wanton growth.
The quiet place where Emperor Yuanwu practiced was behind this woodland, and opposite the quiet place where he practiced, across this woodland, was the pavilion where the two phases dealt with court affairs on weekdays.
At this time, this woodland is full of trees, which is more wintery.
Emperor Yuanwu was still dressed in cloth and sat on the ground, and there were two old men sitting opposite him, one was wearing a black robe, his face was thin and cold, and the other gave people a feeling of old age, but his face was young, and even gave people a handsome feeling, and his breath was gentle, giving people a sense of easy to talk about and make friends.
These are the two phases that are higher than the heads of the divisions.
In the tone of the people in Guanzhong who use many words directly, it means that except for some things that the queen secretly controls, everything that can be placed on the surface in the Great Qin Dynasty is coordinated and handled by these two people.
Originally, most of the things handled by the emperor were handed over to these two people, and these two people were naturally the emperor's real henchmen.
"Why?"
However, at this time, these two people asked Emperor Yuanwu at the same time.
"There is no why. Emperor Yuanwu looked at these two important ministers who were enough to influence the entire Great Qin Dynasty, and said calmly, "No matter what she does, it's just a widow's housework." ”
The two glanced at each other, and finally Yan Xiang, who had a cold face, spoke up, equally calmly but with great courage, and said, "Holy Lord, can you guarantee that this will always be just your housework?"
Emperor Yuanwu was not angry.
He just raised his head, looked at the sky above the winter forest, and said slowly, "Don't forget how difficult it is for the widow and you to get to this point, and don't forget what kind of price the widow and you have paid. ”
The two phases naturally didn't get what they wanted, and their brows were slightly frowned.
Emperor Yuanwu lowered his head, and his eyes fell on Yan Xiang's body, "Don't forget, when she came from Jiaodong County, she should have been the first widow to appear in front of her." The widow represents Wangcheng, and she represents Jiaodong County, which in itself is the meaning of her coming to Changling, and it is precisely because of your arrangement that she was the first to see that person. ”
"It's not your fault, of course. ”
Looking at Yan Xiang, whose face turned pale, Emperor Yuanwu shook his head, "It is precisely because of this that the widow has won the world. But you have to remember that she was supposed to be the queen of widowhood. It's not because she wants to win the world, she won't have that kind of experience. So it's not her fault either. ”
"Naturally, the widow will not forget what you have done for the widow. ”
Emperor Yuanwu's gaze turned to Li Xiang's body, "Let Shen Xuan do that position, not to remind people that you are from the Li family, but to betray the Li family to achieve such a position." Instead, it reminds the world that you can betray the entire Li family for the sake of being outnumbered. ”
"Now the widow and your position are high, and there is little one in the world who is high. But surely you will not forget that the widow and you have the present place only by the word forbearance. ”
Emperor Yuanwu laughed at himself slightly: "Before the Lushan Alliance, who in the world paid too much attention to the existence of the widow? Even when the widow ascended the throne, the vast majority of people in the world only felt that the queen was cold and powerful, and in these years, including the previous conquest with the three dynasties of Han, Zhao and Wei, the world almost forgot the existence of the widow. ”
"Don't be able to endure at that time. ”
Emperor Yuanwu was silent for a few breaths, then looked at the two phases who were also silent, and said, "I don't know how to forbear here and now. ”
"As for the queen, if the widow can tolerate her, these are naturally the widow's household affairs. ”
......
"I didn't know that it was not by chance that she and that person met in Changling back then. ”
Walking out of the woodland, Li Xiang looked at Yan Xiang beside him, took a deep breath, and said slowly.
Yan Xiang smiled sarcastically, "Young people's love is often blind, and adult love pays attention to pros and cons." First come, first served is often more important than talent. She didn't like to accept the arrangement the most, so even if she came from Jiaodong County at the request of her family, she might not accept the marriage with the saint at that time. ”
Li Xiang was silent for a long time.
He knew that this thing, which he didn't even know, was the biggest secret of all the things back then.
In this matter, the arrangement of his colleague may be the most correct arrangement and the most brilliant means back then, because in the end he still achieved his goal and brought Jiaodong County and Changling together. But the most important thing is that this woman who didn't know that there was such an arrangement became the queen, and more importantly, she was far more powerful than everyone imagined.
"Do you think this is really the same as what the Holy Lord said, it will always be a family matter?" Li Xiang raised his head and looked at Yan Xiang and asked.
Yan Xiang smiled coldly, "If you believe it, why bother asking me." ”
Li Xiang shook his head and said no more.
