Chapter 106: A Journey in the Mountains

Taishi Qiu was right, the Son of Heaven really spoke!

He said that he would order all the state capitals to build altars, and he would start the festival as soon as possible!

Master Qiu knew that he would risk the disapproval of the Son of Heaven, but he still bluntly said that this move was very inappropriate, and it would take years and months to work and lose money!

He said: "In the past few years, there have been natural disasters in various places, and the people's harvest has been greatly reduced!

And in order to prevent the northern Taitan, the southwest Dayi, the northwest Tasha and Tuobo, the border army has been expanded several times, and the army has been conscripted year after year!

However, due to disaster relief and military funding, the national treasury is becoming increasingly tight, and this year taxes have been increased.

If we do this act of working hard and hurting money again at this time, I am afraid that the people's hearts will be lost, and it will cause a catastrophe!"

After Taishi Qiu finished speaking, many officials nodded yes!

Li Defang saw the Son of Heaven with a displeased look on his face, and hurriedly took the opportunity!

He refuted Master Qiu in accordance with the holy will, saying that only the saint will live forever, and I will be prosperous for a long time, so that the people can enjoy a happy world for a long time!

He also said that since ancient times, the emperors sacrificed to the sky only in a corner, and this move of the saint can be described as a precedent for emperors through the ages, and it will surely move the gods and ensure the longevity of our dynasty!

Later, he took the initiative to ask Ying, saying that he would share the responsibility of building the altar with Hu Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites and Yang Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry!

Hu Qiliang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Yang Fangcheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, immediately seconded the proposal.

Li Defang also said that since it is the Son of Heaven's patrol festival, the palace should be built at the same time where the palace has not been built in various places!

When Taishi Qiu heard this, he turned his head sharply and glared at Li Defang angrily, and his eyes were about to burst into flames!

Li Defang is even more proud!

Fortunately, the Son of Heaven waved his hand and said: "The palace will be exempted, except for matters related to the sacrifice to the sky, everything is simple!"

All the ministers are the emperor and the emperor!

Taishi Qiu knew that it was harmful and useless to talk about it, so he no longer insisted, and the Son of Heaven showed his face!

Although Li Defang finally won back one percent in front of the Son of Heaven, he still suffered a big loss in general!

So he sprayed all the fire qi on Duan Shanyue's head!

said that if he hadn't taken He Zhuowu away in Longyou, how could there be anything behind?

Fengyun will win the battle and supervise the battle, but it has not been done!

You can't shout even if you go to shout someone, it's a complete waste!

When he came out of the General's Mansion, Deputy Commander Duan's rough face was a lot bigger, and he didn't know how many ear scrapers he had been put by Li De!

He was so depressed that he couldn't do it, and he didn't go back to the house, but he went to the house of Yuan Qing, the household servant, to eat, of course, mainly to rub wine!

After a few bowls of wine, Duan Shanyue's heart became more and more sad, and the iron-like man actually cried in a ruffle!

Yuan Qing didn't need to ask, looking at his face, he guessed that he had been wronged by the general again, but he didn't persuade him, so he cried.

Sure enough, Duan Shanyue cried happily, and stopped wiping his face, but slapped the table and scolded: "The surname Yan is right!"

Lao Tzu is a fucking dog that he Li De put away, and he doesn't treat Lao Tzu as a human being at all, he doesn't count when he snorts and drinks, and he still slaps Lao Tzu at every turn!

He pointed to his own face shining in the wine bowl and shouted, "I can't recognize myself anymore!

Yuan Qing hurriedly motioned for him to silence and said, "Husband, tears can be played, but the future is important, you must be cautious in your words and deeds!"

Then he said a lot of inspirational words and allusions, what is the salary to taste the guts, the humiliation of the crotch, and the burden of enduring humiliation......

Duan Shanyue didn't quite understand it, but anyway, he knew the general meaning and let him go back and be a good dog!

......

He Zhuowen went to the Criminal Department in the back of the court, originally to care about his younger brother's case, but he accidentally got the news from the Kaifeng Mansion!

It is said that on the official road from Kaifeng Mansion to Henan Mansion, a purple-faced corpse was found, and some people recognized it as Yan Yuan, the master of Zhongyong Gate!

He Zhuowen immediately hurried to the Kaifeng Mansion and met dozens of Zhongyong disciples who came to claim the corpse, one of the young men was sturdy, his face was like a heavy jujube, it turned out to be Yan Yuan's only son, Yan Tieyi!

Yan Tieyi's eyes were red at this time, and his spirit was sluggish, but as soon as he heard that the person who came was Lord He, the servant of the ministry, he jumped up and grabbed He Zhuowen's collar, saying that when his father left, he said that he was at the appointment of He Shilang, and went to capture and kill the big devil Li Shangfeng, so he asked him if his father died at the hands of Li Shangfeng!

At first, He Zhuowen's first reaction when he heard the news was Li Shangfeng, but when he thought about it, it didn't look like it.

In the battle the day before yesterday, Li Shangfeng obviously had no intention of killing Yan Yuan, how could he turn back and take Yan Yuan's life afterwards?

So he went to see Yan Yuan's corpse with Yan Tieyi, and found a puppet.

He said that although he was fatally wounded in the chest, he saw that the blood of the seven orifices was different, and after inspection, he found that Yan Yuan had been poisoned before he died, but it was unknown what poison was.

He Zhuowen even more concluded that the murderer was definitely not Li Shangfeng, because if Li Shangfeng wanted to kill Yan Yuan, he didn't need to use poison at all.

He groped for a while on the corpse, but couldn't find anything, and asked the man, did he find a gold post on Yan Yuan's body?

He Zhuowen suspected that someone had killed someone to seize Moyunti.

When asked if there were any other discoveries, he only said that there were still fragments of the wine jar scattered at the scene, and after the government quickly spliced some of them, he said that it was the jar of the capital that was drunk and pretending to be immortal mash, but he had also tested those fragments and had not been poisoned.

After He Zhuowen heard this, he asked Yan Tieyi to take Yan Yuan's body back to Henan Mansion to settle down, and when he heard the news, he rushed back to the capital.

......

It is said that He Qianshan and Zhao Duxue left Ningzhou and went south to embark on the road back to their hometown.

The two only took secluded trails along the way, and later even abandoned their horses to climb mountains and wade through rivers, so they walked very slowly!

Fortunately, it was safer to travel in such a hurry, at least not too worried about the officers and soldiers who were chasing them.

But they don't know yet that officers and soldiers are not the only thing they need to scruple about!

The two walked along the Minshan mountain range.

Thousands of miles of Min Mountain, layers of mountains, the river valley is deeply cut, and the river comes out of it.

The snow in the mountains is extremely difficult to melt in the cold winter months, but today's warm sun seems to be particularly powerful!

The snow that covered the vegetation was trickling into the valleys, revealing the verdant ones that had long since adapted to the cold.

He Qianshan and Zhao Duxue didn't recognize the mountain road, so they could only blindly go south along the direction, there was a way to walk, but there was no way to get out.

Although it was in the mountains in this season, Zhao Duxue had never felt cold.

He Qianshan always held her hand, and there was constantly a warm current coming from his palm, and his body was always warm, but what was warmer was her heart!

He Qianshan suddenly stopped, and Zhao Duxue also saw a figure moving in this direction from a distance.

It's been a long time since they've met anyone!

He Qianshan pulled Zhao Duxue and continued to walk forward, gradually seeing the person's appearance clearly.

This person is a Taoist priest wearing a black Tai Chi robe, who is about the age of not confused, with a flat nose and a beard, and a bamboo basket on his back, and some grass tails emerge from the bamboo basket, like some medicinal herbs.

He Qianshan saw that he was a Taoist who collected medicine, and wanted to ask for directions.

"This Daoist, may I ask ......?"

The man glanced at him expressionlessly, but he passed by directly, ignoring him at all!
