In the first month of the seventh year of Xuanhe, Chang'an City was happy and prosperous, because the Qin Wangfu recently issued a notice that the original Western Xia territory would be changed to Beiting Road, and Huihu and other places would be changed to Qinghai Road, and the Qin Wangfu encouraged the people of Guanzhong to trade in the Western Regions, as long as they went to the Western Regions to trade, Ding**** was not only responsible for the safety of goods, but also the tax would be halved. For the people of Guanzhong, and even the merchants of the entire Great Song Dynasty, halving the tax is a great temptation, and the reason why the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty sometimes lose money is because they are planted on this commercial tax. As soon as the commercial tax announcement of the Qin Wangfu came out, it can be said that it drew a wonderful cake for the merchants of the world, and the king of Qin will marry Li Qinglu, the princess of Western Xia, on the fifteenth day of the first month, it is simply a double happiness.

After several years of development, although the business in Guanzhong has prospered, but the area around Qinfeng Road is still very closed, coupled with the heavy commercial tax, no one is willing to trade, Zhu Niangzi has long had the idea of reducing business taxes to encourage private trade, but before the Western Xia and Uighurs and other places were not within the control of the ****, even if the idea was good, it could only be stranded. Now, with the opening of the Guanzhong Grand Canal, the Western Regions are becoming more and more stable, and it is time to reduce commercial taxes.

With the New Year, the Qin Wangfu will be announced and implemented a number of policies to benefit the people, it can be said that these policies, will make the future of Guanzhong more active, in front of Chang'an, has a faint feeling of the Han and Tang dynasties. In the winter, there are big food merchants with thick cloth hats wrapped around their heads on the streets, and there are also Tibetan merchants dressed in different clothes, in short, you can see those merchants from various countries in the Western Regions anytime and anywhere in Chang'an City, and the people of Chang'an are also accustomed to these beards.

Guanzhong is a prosperous scene, and Zhao Yougong walks around the hall of Beijing Normal University. I went to the 12th Battalion of Chang'an Beiya. Life is pretty good. Far away in Bianliang City. Far from being as warm as Chang'an City, on the fifth day of the first month, according to the custom, Zhao Ji invited the ministers to a banquet in Genyue Garden, but this year is different from previous years, and the banquet atmosphere is obviously a little deserted, why? Because Yeluchun was about to move, Liang Shijie, the famous mansion, kept sending urgent reports and complaining, and it can be said that the people of Hebei were panicked. People can run to Guanzhong or the south, can they be happy to hear this news during the New Year? The power of Wanyan Zongwang in Liaodong is becoming more and more stable, and there is no shortage of smart people in the Great Song Dynasty, they know that it is not a good thing for Wanyan Zongwang's power to be stable, and maybe tomorrow the Dajin Kingdom will leap south.

Zhao Fujin coped with it for a while, and then left quietly, she was still a little unaccustomed to that kind of lively occasion, sitting in the pavilion, the cold wind swept across her cheeks, cold and biting. Looking at the somewhat frozen surface of the lake. She sighed silently, her petite mouth pursed. Showing a bit of bitterness, this year's Manyun Lake is rarely frozen, which is rare in previous years. At least, for as long as I can remember, this is the first time I've seen a thin layer of ice in Manyun Lake. The ice surface was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting a clear figure, looking at his face, somehow, he remembered the people who had passed away, Jin Shilong, Xu Yifeng, the two men who had passed in his life, Zhao Fujin didn't know if he really liked these two people, at least he didn't hate it, but Brother Ling killed them, and he didn't even discuss it. Zhao Fujin hated that hateful brother, but when that brother left, he felt a little missed, because Nuoda's Bianliang City was empty, and when he left, even the interest in hating people had faded so much.

A rustling sound came, and Zhao Fujin didn't look back, because the figure of the person could be seen from the smooth ice. Chai Keyan is wearing a purple jacket, covered with a white cloak, phoenix eyes are slightly raised, her steps are calm and powerful, she is still as cold as ice, just like the cold wind in this winter, but her beauty is like the summer sun, maybe she can melt the cloud lake in front of her in a blink of an eye. Since the accident, the two have rarely seen each other, and somehow, Zhao Fujin has a deep estrangement from the titular imperial sister-in-law, perhaps because the imperial sister-in-law herself is unclean, and she still messes with that one after getting married.

Zhao Fujin's indifference, Chai Keyan was not surprised, this fourth sister is becoming more and more like a strong woman, I have to say that Brother Ling'er's credit is still very great. Walked into the pavilion and sat on the wooden bench next to him with his legs bent, "Fourth sister, why, can't you hear the noise of those people?" It's a nice place, quiet and with a great view! ”

Of course, Chai Keyan didn't say all the words in his heart, some words could not be spoken, it can be said that Manyun Lake is her sad place, as long as she comes here, she can't avoid thinking of the lake that also fell into the lake, and was caught and touched by Zhao Ling. The two got married in this Manyun Lake, and broke off the relationship in the Hengwang Mansion, and now, they have become a pair of enemies of life and death. I don't know when, the people of the dark hall have been densely scattered, and they will launch assassinations at any time, and the people of the worship department and the Hengwang Mansion are protecting the surroundings, Chai Keyan thought that he may be entangled with someone Zhao in his life, just like a pair of happy enemies, but he never thought that time would make the hatred so irreparable.

Zhao Fujin frowned lightly, she didn't pay attention to Chai Keyan's words, she just pondered, Chai Keyan came to Manyun Lake at this time? After hesitating, he smiled slightly, "Sister Xin'er is not the same, it's just that it's windy and a little cold here." ”

"It's good to be cold, people will become much calmer, by the way, fourth sister, there are some things I want to discuss with you, in the future, I want to ask the fourth sister to pay attention to the affairs in the palace." I heard that Yiyanghou is very good to the fourth sister, and in the future, if there is anything to trouble Yiyanghou, I will also ask the fourth sister to help on my behalf. ”

Chai Keyan's face was relaxed when he spoke, but he didn't look like he was begging for someone. Zhao Fujin's heart was cold, and he glanced at Chai Keyan with some vigilance, Yiyang Hou Liu Che is the brother of Queen Mingda, that is, Zhao Fujin's uncle. Because Zhao Fujin was naturally soft and stunning, and Queen Mingda went early, Yiyang Hou Liu Che was very fond of this niece. Of course, if that's all there is, Liu Che doesn't deserve Chai Keyan's attention. Liu Che is not a simple person at all, he is not only the commander of the Jingmen Army, but also the observer of Jinghu Road, it can be said that Liu Che is not only a relative of the emperor, but also holds great power.

"Sister Xin'er, your heart is not small, why should my little sister help you?" Zhao Fujin smiled a little sarcastically, Chai Keyan was not panicked, and replied calmly, "Doesn't the fourth sister want to rectify Zhao Ling?" Moreover, it can help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ascend to the throne. Isn't it good for everyone? Chai Keyan handed Zhao Fujin a meaningful smile. As for whether Chai Keyan can understand. Then it is unknown.

Can Chai Keyan understand? Of course, she had some understanding, she lowered her chin, thought for a while, and smiled a little knowingly. Supporting the eldest brother Zhao Huan to ascend to the throne is indeed only good and no harm, the eldest brother has a cowardly personality and does not have many means, even if he ascends the throne as the emperor. It can't hurt anyone. When he looked at Chai Keyan again, his eyes were full of deep meaning, "Giggles, Sister Xin'er is really a good means, how long has it been since the younger sister's brother obeyed Sister Xin'er's words?" ”

"Obey? It's not true, it's just that everyone has a common goal, fourth sister, you are bent on Zhao Ling's downfall, and what about me, sister. also has a blood feud with that Zhao Ling, you and I cooperate. Wouldn't it be mutually beneficial? ”

Chai Keyan smiled, Zhao Fujin also smiled, and in this New Year's Genyue Garden, the two women reached an agreement without an agreement. A crown princess, an emperor, one outside, one inside, and the one who was pushed ahead was His Royal Highness Zhao Huan, who was not favored by everyone. Of course, all this can't be hidden from the eyes and ears of Concubine Liu, Zhao Yougong withdrew his forces from Bianliang little by little, but Concubine Liu in the palace couldn't move, which was the killer feature for him Zhao to stay in Bianliang.

In the Warm Fragrance Pavilion, it was already late at night, but Concubine Liu did not sleep, she frowned calmly and patiently wrote a letter. Hey, Chai Keyan actually encouraged the fourth sister, what miracle will these two people have when they join together? What Chai Keyan and Zhao Fujin are going to do, Concubine Liu can guess it, these two women are uniting to deal with that enemy, but why haven't they heard the trace of Yuge yet?

Sometimes, whatever you want, the day after the banquet in Genyue Garden, Chai Keyan welcomed a guest. In the middle of the night, the man was wrapped in darkness, and he was so strangely dressed that there was only the master of the Listening Rain Pavilion in the world. Speaking carefully, Chai Keyan is not a stranger to Tingyu Pavilion, he had been in contact with Tingyu Pavilion when he used to destroy Liangshan with Zhao Yougong. In Chai Keyan's impression, the people who listened to the Yuge should have come a long time ago, because the Tingyu Pavilion had worked hard to create a conspiracy of such a scale, would they ignore her Chai Keyan?

Finally, listening to the people from the Rain Pavilion, it was still the black-robed man who came, under the cold moonlight, the black-robed man stood at the window, one hand caressing the window, "County Lord, how are you feeling lately?" ”

"You're the Pavilion Master? The lord of this county thought that you would have come a long time ago, but I didn't expect to endure it until now! Chai Keyan's words were full of sarcasm, but the black-robed man did not react at all, as if these sarcastic words were said to others.

What the black-robed man wants to do, Chai Keyan can guess some, it's just that he wants to use the Chai family to achieve some kind of purpose. The black-robed man looked unusually quiet, leaned against the window, opened the window a gap, and then the cold wind blew in, "County Lord, someone Zhao killed His Royal Highness, and I want to come to the county lord to kill someone Zhao to take revenge, why don't you cooperate with this seat?" ”

Chai Keyan said in her heart, her face did not move, but she glanced out of the corner of her eye, "Do you think this county lord will cooperate with you?" After all, my father was also killed by you, hum, I want revenge, this county lord has his own way to deal with Zhao Yougong, and I don't need the help of you guys who hide your head and tail, listen to Yuge? It's just a bunch of fools who are sneaky and don't dare to do things openly. ”

Hearing Chai Keyan's words, the black-robed man was slightly stunned, his shoulders trembled slightly, and he was obviously a little angry, "County Lord? Aren't you afraid when you say that? At such a close distance, there are a hundred ways to save the life of the county lord. Hehe, the county lord might as well think about it carefully, with your current situation, it is not easy to support Zhao Huan, and you have to deal with someone Zhao, why not consider the suggestion of this seat? ”

The black-robed man spoke hoarse and low, as if he was vomited by a dying person, and in the face of the threat of the black-robed man, Chai Keyan was indifferent, "Is there a difference between Yuge and Zhao Yougong?" If you can, the lord of this county wants to see what dog-eat-dog is like! ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw a soft sound outside the door, and then a person rushed in, and after the person entered the house, he directly blocked in front of Chai Keyan, and his eyes locked on the black-robed man in front of him, "Hehe, Cao has waited for so long, and finally waited for the honorable driver to come!" ”

Chai Keyan was not surprised by Cao Bing's appearance, others may not know, but she knew very well in her heart that although she couldn't see anyone, there must be people around her, and if anyone regarded today's officials as ignorant fools, it would definitely be unlucky. This official family has great wisdom, but there is never a shortage of small wisdom, the Chai family finally broke with Zhao Yougong, will he watch the Chai family be destroyed by someone else's assassination? Therefore, since seeing the black-robed man, Chai Keyan has always been very calm, because she knows that the people from the worship department are hiding nearby, and they will definitely come, but she didn't expect that the person who came would be Cao Bing.

It is said that Cao Bing is a family member of the worship department, there is no need to do it himself, but the official family is very concerned about listening to the rain pavilion, and he has been angry several times for this, Cao Bing has no choice but to come forward to do things in person, and the Cheshire Lord is a good target, although he has not seen the people of the Listening Rain Pavilion appear for more than a month, but Cao Bing is very patient, he feels that the listening to the rain pavilion will definitely send people, and in the end, the emperor lives up to his wishes and finally makes him wait. Cao Bing looked at the black-robed man deadly, he really wanted to take off that mask and see what the black-robed man looked like.

"Cao Offering? Hehe, county lord, it seems that this seat is not the right time to come today! Before the words fell, the black-robed man waved his left sleeve, and a puff of white smoke went towards Cao Bing's cover, Cao Bing hurriedly resisted, and at this moment, only a click was heard, and the black-robed man broke out of the window. Finally waited for the black-robed man, where did Cao Bing allow the black-robed man to escape, he yelled, jumped out of the window, and while chasing, he secretly complained in his heart, what the hell is Huangshang, why hasn't he come now?

Cao Bing really wronged Huang Shang, Huang Shang didn't want to come, but he couldn't come, he led people to North Street as soon as he was stopped by more than a dozen black-clothed people, after a fierce fight, when he arrived at the East Palace, there was already no trace of the black-robed people, and the most terrible thing was that Cao Bing was still injured not lightly or seriously. Cao Bing is also a smart person, as soon as he saw the blood stains on Huang Shang's body, he knew that he must be in trouble, the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly, Cao Bing said in a low voice, "Brother Huang, it seems that this Yuge is really difficult, the black-robed man is planning and thinking, this opportunity is missed, and it will be a little difficult to find him in the future."
