The plan went very well, the two of them intrigued in the banquet, and finally Xi Feng accepted a large bribe and promised Liu Han to go on the road together, Luzhu listened to the whole thing, the next day, the whole fort of Sanjiang Fort was mobilized, but Luzhu entered the city, Xiaoqi followed her to Zhilan Courtyard, and waited outside for more than an hour before the woman came out, and then went straight back to the fort, her eyes were still red, and she looked like she had cried.

"Either there is a problem with Zhilan Courtyard, or this woman is fine. ”

Sitting in the carriage, Liu Han looked at the scenery along the way outside, and said casually, Lao Huang was reading a book with a book, and he didn't seem to hear it at all, Liu Han was very helpless about this scene. Outside the window, close to the wheat harvest, out of Chang'an City, Yongzhong Plain, endless emerald green, the air is full of the fragrance of corn and sorghum, and it is a bumper harvest at the sight.

It is not suitable for this harvest that the farther away from Chang'an, the more displaced people on the side of the road, King Qin said that there are more than 30,000 displaced people around Chang'an, Liu Han seems to be absolutely more than that, these displaced people are all ragged, skinny, and their eyes are sluggish holding a broken bowl on the side of the road to ask for food, not far from Chang'an In Zhaoyuan Town, Liu Han took advantage of the rest to take a look at the town, and there were two or three thousand displaced people gathered in this town, which is not too little.

Zhaoyuan Town is located on the official road from Chang'an to the imperial capital, the official road passes through the town, and the business travel officials who come and go from Chang'an and the imperial capital are here to rest, and the inns and restaurants in the town are doing very well.

Displaced people generally do not dare to gather near official roads, let alone on such important transportation routes. The government does not allow people to leave their places of origin at will, and those who do not have a body are seized by the government for three days and then forcibly repatriated to their places of origin.

Therefore, the displaced people generally do not dare to stay in the official roads or important towns, and most of them gather in the mountainous areas, or small towns and villages far away from the official roads, but now these displaced people don't even care about this, and they are gathered here.

Liu Han bought more than a dozen children in Zhaoyuan Town, and the price of each child was only two or three taels of silver, and he gave Luzhu the exit fee to buy 10,000 such children.

"There are thousands of homeless people here, at least 150,000 homeless people in Yongzhou, can you buy them?" Lao Huang saw his softness and mocked.

Liu Han didn't say anything, indeed, buying these children is a kindness, he really can't sit idly by, since he can accommodate a few, let him contain a few, besides, these children are cultivated and cultivated, if they can produce a talent in the future, they will earn it.

Back on the road Liu Han sat on Lao Huang's carriage, hiding in the carriage, the two chatted a few words from time to time, Liu Han paid attention to the observation while walking, the similarities and differences between the terrain and roads of this era and another era. This era is partly the same as another era, and the other part is different, from the map, it is Nanguan, not the Tongguan in the previous life is Hanguguan, Xiyue Mountain, most of them are Huashan.

Glancing at Tianna's carriage, Mia leaned on the edge of the window, leaned out to make a mantis, looked back at Liu Han and Lao Huang's car from time to time, and made a naughty grimace when she met Liu Han's gaze.

Liu Han remembered the set he gave to the green bamboo before leaving, but this set didn't have much effect, which made him very depressed.

Lao Huang let go of the page, and didn't raise his eyelids: "You are disappointed that she didn't spread the news." ”

Liu Han heard the sound of the words, hehe laughed dryly, in fact, this set is killing two birds with one stone, finding the contact point set up in Chang'an by the palace is one aspect, and the other aspect is to tell the father-in-law in the palace that he has nothing to do with King Qin, just to please Xi Feng.

The latter purpose is more important than the former.

The imperial capital, the heart of the Great Jin Empire, the majestic palace occupies the center of the imperial capital, the continuous palace reflects the yellow light in the sun, the palace is quiet in the sun, the pretty palace ladies who come and go endlessly, and the eunuchs wearing blue round-necked robes, are cautious, lest they make a noise, alarming the masters who are worried about it, and the forbidden soldiers wearing red armor control the gates of the palace city.

Yawen Pavilion is on the west side of the inner palace, usually His Majesty the Emperor does not come here much, but now it is the place where the emperor lives for a long time, this courtyard is quieter than the rest of the palace, the little eunuchs who are waiting in it are engrossed in listening to the call at any time, from decoction to snacks, they are always ready, as long as they need to take it out immediately.

It was hot outside, but the room was cooler, the ice cubes placed in the corners of the room dispel the scorching heat, and there was a large boat in the middle of the house, and the emperor lay on the bed, covered with a delicate velvet blanket from the Jiangnan Yulon.

"Yangzhou Zhizhou Zhao Xuan is the saint to congratulate, Yangzhou this year's grain harvest, there are rice to give birth to seven ears, it is really auspicious from the sky."

The middle-aged eunuch who was reciting the cantata observed the emperor's expression while reading, and saw that the emperor didn't say anything, so he put the cantata aside and picked up another cantata:

"Jingzhou Xiangyang Prefecture Governor Song Huang played, impeached... ”

As soon as these two words were recited, the emperor's brows furrowed slightly, so the eunuch immediately put the cantata below, picked up another cantata, and was about to read it, when the emperor moved slightly, the middle-aged eunuch put down the cantata, and stepped forward to approach the emperor.

"Your Majesty asked the prince?" The eunuch hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the prince didn't play today." ”

The emperor still insisted on chanting, and the eunuch hurriedly turned around and ordered: "Please come over." ”

The little eunuch waiting outside the door immediately rushed away, and the eunuch asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, do you want to lie down for a while?" ”

The emperor didn't move his lips with difficulty: "No!"

These two words were clearly audible, and the eunuch stopped and asked again: "Your Majesty, Uncle Guo has asked to see you again, do you want to see you?" ”

As he was talking, a little eunuch came in with a food box, the eunuch came over, opened the food box, there was only one bowl inside, and the eunuch picked up the bowl and walked to the emperor: "Your Majesty, let's drink a bowl of ginseng soup first, this is a century-old ginseng that the king of the East China Sea bought from Goguryeo." ”

The emperor was silent for a while, the eunuch picked up the bowl, scooped a small spoon with a spoon and sent it to the emperor's mouth, the emperor opened his mouth to drink, the eunuch fed spoonful by spoonful, and gently wiped the water stains from his mouth while feeding, and was drinking, an old eunuch walked in tremblingly from outside the door, this old eunuch had gray hair, wore a purple cloth crown, and embroidered a bird of prey on the chest of the cloth robe, his eyes were wide open, and he stared into the distance. The old eunuch came in without speaking, and waited calmly aside.

After a while, the emperor finally drank the ginseng soup, the ginseng soup was warm in his stomach, his face was flushed, and the old eunuch smelled it before he spoke: "Your Majesty, are you feeling better today?"

A smile appeared on the emperor's thin face, and this smile was so helpless: "That's it, you can drag on as long as you want, Muzi, it's been a few days, and you won't come to see me." ”

The middle-aged eunuch stepped aside and diligently moved the embroidery stool for Father-in-law Mu, and Father-in-law Mu sat down naturally: "The past two days have not been very peaceful, and the old slave has to be watched by the master." ”

"Hmph," the emperor snorted contemptuously, "all wait, wait for me to breathe, leave them alone." ”

Father-in-law Mu sighed: "Then how can I be, I have to keep an eye on the master, and wait for the master's body to get better, and then clean them up." ”

"Okay, I'm afraid it won't get better. The emperor sighed and didn't speak again, and Gonggong Mu didn't dare to answer it. The two of them waited quietly like this, their master and slave had cooperated for many years, they were very familiar with each other, they knew what the other party was thinking, and what they were going to do, so they cleaned up a lot of enemies.

"How is the crown prince doing?" the emperor asked.

"The crown prince inspected Chen Guo very well this time, and summoned Chen Guofeng Shifan Li Zhumen Valve family master, however, the prince was very worried about too many displaced people in Chen Guo, and hoped that Zhumen Valve would contribute money and efforts to appease the displaced people. ”

"What about them?"

Father-in-law Mu was overjoyed: "Chen Guo has a bumper harvest this year, and Feng Shi Fan Li is also very tight, and each family has produced tens of thousands of stone grains and settled tens of thousands of displaced people. ”

"Okay, don't whitewash them," the emperor looked cold: "The prince is still young, I dare to say that what they took out is not half of what they said." ”

"Master Shengming. Father-in-law Mu said expressionlessly, the emperor looked at the roof blankly, the curtains blocked the sun, the ice cubes in the four corners exuded a faint cold air, the middle-aged eunuchs had retreated to the door, the little eunuchs hid far away, the words of the emperor and Father-in-law Mu have always been only heard by middle-aged eunuchs.

After a long while, the emperor sighed: "Forget it, let them go, by the way, the pengzhu next to the prince didn't find it this time?"

"Pengzhu got sick halfway through and came back two days ago. ”

Hearing this, the emperor showed a helpless wry smile. On the surface, Pengzhu is a member of the prince's mansion, but in fact he is the prince's henchman and right-hand man, and most of the disposal policies when the prince was in charge of the country were formulated by him, which can be called the prince's right-hand man.

At this moment, the crown prince sent his right-hand man back to the imperial capital, and the purpose was self-evident.

"What about King Qi, what is he busy with?"

"These days, King Qi and Xiang Tao, Ji Xiu, and Wang Rong chant poems and paint all day long. ”

The two of them spoke very casually, but in this conversation, they moved the main ministers of the court.

"Last night, Fang went back to visit King Qi. Grandpa Mu said.

The emperor frowned: "What's wrong with this Fang Hui! Didn't I tell him to stay well, it's uncomfortable to stay in the pavilion?!"

Gonggong Mu didn't answer, and the emperor was silent for a while before he sighed: "This Fang Hui is just too crazy, I don't know how to converge at all, and I will have to suffer in the future." What about Qiuyun?

"What about Duan Chang and Zhang Ping?"

Duan Chang drank in the post house all day, and from time to time he called the two singers to sing a small song. Zhang Ping often goes out, he is very arrogant, either boating on the river, or going out of the city to climb the mountain. ”

"General Qiu stayed at the Cijian Station yesterday. ”

"Or is it a closed door?"

"Yes. Grandpa Mu's answer was still simple and clear.

"This is a cautious man. The emperor seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and Gonggong Mu nodded and said, "General Qiu has always been cautious. ”

"So, tomorrow, he should arrive. The emperor asked, Mu Gonggong nodded, and the emperor pursed his lips tightly before saying, "When he arrives, I'll see him." ”

Qiuyun was extremely cautious when he returned to the DPRK this time, not only did he not go to Chang'an as usual, but also hurried along the way, and when he arrived at the post station, he closed the door and thanked the guests, never seeing outsiders, and he not only came back by himself, but also brought his second son back.

The emperor's face showed a hint of exhaustion, and Gonggong Mu got up just right: "The master is tired, let's rest first, the old slave is staring at them." ”

As he spoke, he stepped forward, helped the emperor up, pulled the pillow down, and gently put the emperor down, and the middle-aged eunuch at the door came in.

After doing all this, the middle-aged eunuch lit another benzoin, and Gonggong Mu checked the ice cubes at the four corners, and was about to leave, when the emperor whispered on the side: "Xiao Muzi, Xiao Muzi." ”

Gonggong Mu hurriedly went over and leaned over to the emperor's ear, and the emperor whispered: "Let the prince come back, it's been long enough, let him come back." ”
