Chapter 698: Complicated Situation (2)
The dispute in the capital has nothing to do with Yuxi and Yunqing for the time being. It's just that Yuxi is very worried about the Qiu family and Han Jianming in the capital: "Herui, I'm worried about my mother and eldest brother!" "Yan Wushuang almost killed her, and this revenge must be avenged. If they are against Yan Wushuang, Yan Wushuang is not the emperor, and he will definitely use his mother and eldest brother to blackmail her at that time.
Yun Qing nodded and said, "Otherwise, I'll send someone to pick them up and take them to the northwest." ”
Yuxi nodded and said, "Don't have too many people, too many people will arouse suspicion." In addition, let Master Yang go with them when the time comes. "Master Yang knows a lot of people in the rivers and lakes, and he has enough experience, so it is also reassuring to have him with Yuxi.
Yun Qing didn't agree to let Master Yang go, Master Yang was unwilling to hand over the secret recipe, and those medicines worked very well. This trip lasted a few months, and I had to dispense a lot of medicines, which were life-saving. Yunqing said: "There are many medicines that need to be prepared by Master Yang. If you don't worry about letting Shang Da go, he not only has experience, but can also speak official language! "Shang Da is a veteran who has served in Yucheng for more than twenty years, and has been a scout before, so he is a very sharp person.
Yuxi nodded and said, "If you think it's good, then it's done." ”
Walking out of the study, Yuxi looked up at the moon above his head and said, "The moon is really round tonight." "Not only is it round, but it's also so bright that you can see it without lighting up the yard.
Yunqing couldn't appreciate the beautiful night, took Yuxi's hand and said, "I'm tired today, let's go to bed early, and I'll accompany you another day." ”
Yuxi nodded.
After Yuxi finished bathing, Yunqing was already in bed, and as soon as he got into bed, he was hugged by Yunqing in his arms. Yuxi hurriedly said: "I'm very tired today, don't want it." Since that day, Yunqing has been extremely enthusiastic about this matter, and he will not stop every night without fainting her, which makes Yuxi's intestines really regretful, and Yuxi has been getting up late every day for the past few days.
Yunqing didn't have any ideas. Yuxi is tired like this, and it would be too unconscionable for him to do that. Yunqing kissed Yuxi and said, "Don't worry, I won't trouble you today." ”
Yuxi snorted, kissed Yunqing's cheek awkwardly, and said, "Then sleep!" "After a busy night and exhaustion today, Yuxi quickly fell asleep.
The next day, Yuxi finished a set of five poultry plays, and his face was covered with sweat. wiped his sweat and walked into the yard, and saw Yunqing walking in with jujubes. Yuxi smiled and said, "Where did you go with her?" ”
Yunqing said: "I walked around the front yard. This girl is going to go out and play! Finding a time, we went out for a walk. "After being in Ho City for so long, he hasn't taken Yuxi out yet!
Yuxi said with a smile: "When we are done with the things at hand, we will not only go to the market, but also go to the night market." "Now there are a lot of things, one day can't be used as two days, where can I have time to go outside to play!
Yuxi eats very slowly, chewing slowly. Yunqing is the opposite, eating quickly and gobbling it up. Yuxi has said it many times, but unfortunately it is useless.
After Yunqing finished eating, he looked at the dates and dates that were all over his face. Carried the jujube over and put it on his lap, then took the dried shrimp egg custard in his hand, and fed the jujube.
Yuxi glanced at Yunqing, but didn't speak. She can order Zeng's mother and Grandma Quan to ignore the jujube and let her eat it by herself, but she can't care about Yunqing, she said it a few times before, but Yunqing didn't listen to her, and said that the jujube is still young and there is no need to be so harsh. I don't know, I thought Yuxi was the stepmother! After a few times, Yuxi didn't bother to say more, and went by Yunqing.
After breakfast, Yuxi said to Yunqing: "I just thought about it seriously, the emperor is likely to flee the capital. "If the Yu family forms an alliance with Yan Wushuang and the emperor knows, then the emperor will definitely not be able to sit still and stay in the capital and wait for death.
Yun Qing thought about it seriously and said, "If your speculation is correct, then the emperor will definitely go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang when he leaves the capital." "Jiangsu and Zhejiang are rich, and they are relatively stable over there, unlike other places, where rebellions are rampant.
Yuxi hummed and said, "I hope the emperor can escape from the capital!" "No matter what the emperor did before, now he is the emperor and is orthodox. As long as the emperor does not die, Yan Wushuang is a traitor and thief, and the grudge between the emperor and Yan Wushuang is endless. Yuxi hoped that the emperor would fight as hard as possible with Yan Wushuang, so that they could gain more time to develop the northwest.
Yunqing's thoughts are different from Yuxi's: "I prefer that the emperor can defend the capital." "Yunqing is a general, and for him, he would rather die in battle than lose his city.
Yuxi didn't argue with Yun Qing about this issue: "Mrs. Feng and they have all arrived in Ho City, and I will set up a banquet to entertain them in two days." "You have to take care of both inside and outside, it's really not an ordinary tiredness! However, Yuxi likes this kind of busy life, tired is tired, but it is very fulfilling.
The husband and wife talked again, and Yunqing went out. Since Yuxi took over the government affairs, Yunqing has spent half of his time in the barracks, and half of the time has been at home.
The prefect Liu Biyuan saw Yuxi this day and mentioned a construction to Yuxi: "Madam, there is a lot of wind and sand in the northwest, if you can grow more trees, you can improve the harsh environment in the northwest." "Liu Biyuan was originally the county magistrate of a county below, but because he was an honest and fair official, he was promoted by Yunqing to be the prefect of Ho City. However, because his official was donated, and he was not a serious person, he was ostracized by other colleagues.
Yuxi nodded and said, "The idea is very good, but we are short of money now, and this money has to be used for the most important things." ”
Liu Biyuan said: "Madam, it doesn't cost much money to plant trees. I did the math, it won't be more than 200,000 taels. "The main thing is to plant trees, mainly for saplings, and nothing else. And Yunqing looted so much money a few days ago, if he didn't have tens of millions on hand, he had to have millions, and 200,000 taels of silver was really not much.
Yuxi also felt that Liu Biyuan was very good at mentioning this, so he also said patiently: "This kind of tree is easy to plant and difficult to survive. There is a shortage of water in the northwest, and if there is no water for the trees planted, the survival rate is very low. Later, when dams and canals are built, it will be easier to plant trees. "The idea of planting trees to improve the environment is a thought ahead.
Liu Biyuan got the news before, saying that Yuxi wanted to build water conservancy. But it was all hearsay, and I didn't get any definite news: "In this way, it will naturally be good." ”
Yuxi's heart moved, and he said: "Governor Liu, in fact, I think that if the northwest wants to become better, it is not only necessary to plant trees, but also to build roads. "Building water conservancy and vigorously developing agriculture is the foundation of prosperity. It's just that this road is not easy to walk, and it takes more time on the road. This is also Yuxi's deep experience, if the road is easy to walk, she can get from Yucheng to Hocheng in more than a month. In this way, neither adults nor children need to suffer too much sin.
Liu Biyuan said: "Building roads costs more. "Planting a tree only requires the cost of a sapling, but repairing a road requires materials and labor, which is a huge expense.
Yuxi smiled and said, "If you don't succeed now, it doesn't mean that you won't succeed in the future." "When the northwest becomes rich, we will definitely plant trees and build roads.
Xu Daniu said outside the study: "Madam, Lord Tan Tuotan asks to see Madame." Tan Tuo said in Yuxi that he would let him go to Ho City, so he began to prepare for leaving. As soon as Ok-hee's letter arrived, he headed for Ho Castle.
Yuxi was still very happy and said, "Hurry up and invite Lord Tan in." After speaking, let Liu Biyuan go down.
Liu Biyuan saw Tan Tuo outside and took the initiative to say hello to Tan Tuo. This Tan Tuoke is his wife's confidant, but he must have a good relationship and not be offended.
Tan Tuo knows Liu Biyuan, he climbed up from the bottom, and he has a lot of experience, so he sees problems differently than ordinary people. He felt that no matter whether he was an official in the imperial examination or an official who was bought with money, as long as he was a good official who did practical things for the people, he would become a good official. Of course, nine out of ten people who spend money to buy officials are corrupt officials, and Liu Biyuan is a strange deposit.
After saying hello, they separated, but the two left a good impression on each other.
Looking at Tan Tuo, who was in the dust, Yuxi said with a smile: "Lord Tan, thank you for your hard work." Looking at Tan Tuo's appearance, he knew that he would come to see him as soon as he arrived in Ho City.
Tan Tuo shook his head and said, "It's not hard, it's not hard at all." When he was in Lanzhou City, Tan Tuo told Yuxi that if the northwest wants to develop, it must build water conservancy. However, Yuxi didn't react at that time, which made Tan Tuo very disappointed, but he didn't expect that the peak would turn around.
In fact, Yuxi was not without ideas at that time, but she felt that this kind of major event had to be discussed with Yunqing before making a decision.
When he received Yuxi's letter, saying that he was going to let him be in charge of the water conservancy project, Tan Tuo was very happy, which was a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people. Well, if it is done, it may be recorded in history and passed down through the ages. Readers, don't you want to leave your name in the annals of history!
Yuxi could feel that Tan Tuo was a little excited, although it was a little strange, she didn't ask much, just said: "Lord Tan, I believe that you also told you that you are in charge of water conservancy when you go to Ho City." ”
Tan Tuo was not modest for the first time, and said: "Don't hide it, Madame, when I was in Xinping City, I started to prepare. "It's also because there is no money, otherwise Tan Tuo would have started to do this in Xinping City.
Yuxi was not surprised, from the last time Tan Tuo talked to her about this matter, Yuxi knew that Tan Tuo had a plan: "It's good if you are prepared." "Not only is the land barren in the northwest, but there are also very few talents. As long as there are officials, they all want to be sent to rich places such as Jiangnan, and they are not willing to come to the barren land of the northwest. In addition, Yunqing will kill corrupt officials again, and no one can use the guide. Otherwise, there is no need to promote Liu Biyuan to the prefect of Ho City.
Looking at Tan Tuo's tired face, Yuxi said, "You go down first and have a good rest, and we'll talk about this tomorrow." "It's urgent, but people are more important. If Tan Tuo has any mistakes, it will be her heavy loss.
Tan Tuo was in good spirits, but Yuxi didn't want to talk to him, so he could only go first. R1148
