Ding!Your golden finger has been delivered

But the king of Mobei did not flinch and insisted: "Your Majesty, my Mobei's loyalty to Dayan can be learned from the world. I worship the sun and the moon. In order to show our sincerity, I am willing to reduce the tariff by [-]% for five years as a gift for marrying Mu Xin." Princess gift."

The caravans between Dayan and Mobei are frequent, and the merchants will go deep into the desert, transport cattle and sheep flattery to the pass, and then send out salt, tea, cloth and other materials to earn a lot of profits.

The business tax at the border is two-way, and it is in the hands of two parties. Merchants have to pay a large sum of money when they leave the customs and enter the customs, and this money is also the main source of finance for the imperial court to support the border officers and soldiers.

If Mobei's tariff on Dayan is reduced by [-]%, it will not only mean that Dayan will gain more benefits, but also mean that the trade at the border will be more accessible. Under the prosperity of business, the development and convenience brought are not only value measurable.

When the officials of the household department heard this, their eyes immediately lit up. As the management agency of the treasury, even though the country is prosperous now and there is no shortage of money, they still habitually want to put money into it.

However, due to Tianwei, they were still rational, so they didn't open their mouths, they just waited and watched.

Of course, He Xingzhou would not agree. He gave Mu Xin a reassuring look, and said with a smile, "I have already experienced the loyalty of the king of Mobei. This year's snow disaster, the heavy snow in Mobei, has suffered more than Dayan. I really miss the people of Mobei , the [-]% tariff is fine, and I hope King Mobei will be considerate of his subjects."

The words made Mobei King clenched his fists.

Isn't this reprimanding him for not treating the people well, and when he was hit by a disaster, he was still bent on marrying a beautiful woman, forcing down the tariffs, and starving his people?

If it weren't for the fact that the officials who attended the banquet with him were all his confidantes, this sentence alone would have brought him huge troubles.

I believe that if this word spreads to Mobei, his brothers will spare no effort to belittle his virtue.

He opened his mouth to refute, but His Majesty's eyes on the stage were so sharp that he seemed to be able to see through his thoughts, so he just waved his hand and signaled the maid to pour him wine.

"Okay, it's a rare feast today, don't talk about state affairs, King Mobei has a good taste of my Dayan's wine, how is it different from yours in Damo?"

He gently turned the topic away, and the king of Mobei didn't want to mess around. He picked up the wine glass, respected the high platform from a distance, and drank it in one gulp.

The wine is indeed mellow, rich and mellow, with a long aftertaste, not as strong as the wine in the desert, but it does have a special flavor.

The banquet became lively again, and the officials toasted him one after another. In order to maintain a humble and respectful personality, King Mobei would drink with anyone who came, and he was a little drunk after drinking a cup.

When he got drunk, he was afraid that he would lose his composure, so after asking His Majesty for instructions, the eunuch took him to the nearby garden to sober up.

It is spring now, and the scenery in the garden is just right. The royal garden is naturally and exquisitely designed. He has never seen such a beautiful scenery full of flowers and flowers in Mobei.

There was another person standing in the pavilion. Under the moonlight, the beauty was wearing a white gauze dress, as if she was playing with a magnolia flower. Her figure was thin and slender, her long hair was casually tied into a bun, and the rest was loose. As the evening wind blows, the clothes and hair move together, like a fairy in a shrine.

Mo Bei was not awake at all, so he was completely insane, he stared straight ahead, took a few steps forward in a daze, and looked closer, the beauty was even more beautiful, with a pretty appearance, as if in a painting.

When he approached, the beauty seemed to be frightened by him, she quickly took a step back, saluted, and was about to leave.

"Wait!" Of course King Mobei wanted to keep him.

He stopped subconsciously, and felt that his actions were too abrupt, so he quickly withdrew his hand and asked eagerly, "Young lady, do you live in the harem?"

Yue Bai'an sneered in his heart, which empress did he take her for?Judging by his performance, he is really outrageous, even the emperor's woman dares to imagine it?

But she has a mission today, although she was disdainful in her heart, she still had a cowardly look on her face, and said softly: "No, there is only the emperor's wife in the harem of your Majesty, and I and my servants are just accompanying the princess into the palace."

"My daughter? Who are you, the young lady of an adult family?" King Mobei suddenly felt frivolous in his heart, thinking that if there is any official who is not popular, he will ask His Majesty to reward him directly. Just give it to him.

No wonder he was so contemptuous. Although Dayan's women's status is not as good as that of men, women from good families still have their rights and interests protected. No trading or bullying is allowed. Otherwise, if someone reports to the government, the punishment will be very severe.

But in Mobei, that kind of place, even the elderly don't take it seriously, and it is common for a few to starve to death in winter, let alone women?In the eyes of Mobei people, regardless of whether they are good or bad, these women are just objects, and they can be given away for sale at will.

The daughter of a nobleman has some status, but that's all, once King Mobei opens his mouth, whose noble daughter dare not offer it?

Fortunately, Yue Bai An didn't know what was going on in his heart, otherwise the scene wouldn't be able to go on at all, and she couldn't guarantee that she would refrain from beating the dog's head violently.

"My daughter's father, Yue Mingde, is the current prime minister."

King Mobei's smile disappeared, Prime Minister, of course he knew what status he was considered among the officials of Dayan, he was almost under one person and over ten thousand people, such a background made him a little jealous, and he immediately lost his previous contempt.

"So it's Miss Yue, there is a banquet in the palace tonight, why doesn't Miss go to the ceremony?"

Yue Bai'an shook her head, under the moonlight, her face was extremely weak, and one couldn't help feeling sorry for her.

She deliberately adjusted a relatively perfect side face, facing King Mobei, and said schemingly: "There are many people at the banquet, I don't like excitement, I would rather be with the moonlight."

The melancholy atmosphere of this body is the thing that can touch the hearts of the ancients the most. The king of Mobei is not a literati, but he also has a heart advocating Dayan culture, so he was immediately captured. I don't know what to say.

Yue Bai'an smiled brightly, without losing his manner, and said goodbye: "It's getting late, the palace gate is about to release the key, I'm leaving first."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and left without hesitation. Only then did King Mobei realize that he wanted to save her, but he only touched the corner of the beauty's clothes, and finally looked at the moon-white back, feeling lost.

After the banquet was over, He Xingzhou returned to Qifeng Palace. Fang Zhengxin was bored on the bed playing dice. When he saw him coming in, his eyes lit up and he wanted to jump out of bed.

"Oh, slow down, master, be careful of the little princess in your belly."

Nanny Bao was anxious on the side, seeing He Xingzhou firmly catching Fang Zhengxin, she felt relieved.

He Xingzhou beckoned, and the servants withdrew, only the two of them were alone in the room.

"How is it today? What nonsense did King Mobei say?"

"He didn't dare to overestimate his own strength when he came to my home court, but he proposed to marry Mu Xin, but I blocked him back."

Although Mu Xin was brought up by the empress dowager, he has a surprisingly good temper, which formed a natural contrast with the deposed prince.She also has a good relationship with Fang Zhengxin, and she often goes to the palace to bring him something new outside the palace, or tells him some interesting stories from time to time to amuse him.

Fang Zhengxin often communicates with her, so he understands her thoughts better. When he heard that King Mobei wanted to marry him, he said angrily, "That's wishful thinking. We Mu Xin are so good, we can match the best man in the world, why should we go with him?" Mobei is suffering, Your Majesty should not agree to it in a flash."

"How could it be? You have the same thoughts as me. King Mobei said he wanted to lower the tariffs, but I didn't agree."

"That's how it should be!" He sat back on the bed, rubbed his stomach one after another, and mused, "Now that the king of Mobei is entering the palace, Zhao's residence has not moved. I searched again, why didn't I find anything?"

The matter of Zhao Peiyao has always been on his mind, so he asked He Xingzhou to issue a search warrant to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, saying that he had received a report that there were a large number of treasures beyond the grade in Zhao's house, and that he sent people to search them inside and out of the house in order to despise the Holy Majesty. I searched all over again.

There was a harvest, many tributes and treasures were uncovered, but Mr. Zhao pushed them onto his younger brother, at most he was convicted of disrespect, even if he was chopped off, it would not hurt the entire Zhao family.

After some commotion, the evidence that Fang Zheng wanted was not searched out, instead he started to scare the snake, which made him depressed for a long time.

He Xingzhou wasn't too surprised. Mr. Zhao has always been cautious, and he would never put important things in his lair. Moreover, he probably has his internal support in the palace. It is not difficult for him to get the news in advance and transfer things. manage.

He knew that Fangzheng was not reconciled, so he could only comfort him: "There are no secrets in our palace. I don't know how many eyes are staring at it. If there is any movement, what should be known will be known."

It's not that they don't want to rectify, but it's not the two of them who live in the palace, and the Queen Mother's opinion is also very important. Who can refuse the palace maid and eunuch arranged by her old man in person if there is nothing wrong with that person?

He Xingzhou stroked his back, his eyes sank: "So, if we want to solve this matter, we have to start from the source. As long as there is a flaw in King Mobei and our people get the evidence, even if Zhao Guangji has a hundred Even if a member of the tribe is dragged into the water, he has nothing to do with him."

Fangzheng smiled narrowly: "That's the secret weapon you mentioned? How is she doing tonight?"

"After all, nothing went wrong."

Of course, he didn't fully trust Yue Bai'an, so he kept sending people to watch their every move in the dark. After the banquet, someone told him what happened in the pavilion and the conversation between the two of them.

"The king of Mobei is still young, and he will be hooked with a little beauty trick."

"Not everyone can invite the prime minister's daughter-in-law to set a trap." Fangzheng sighed leisurely, "Aren't you afraid that the prime minister will come to trouble you afterwards?"

Calling a good family's daughter to do things of charm, although it is a meritorious service to the country, but it is always not on the stage. How is it different from a dancer and singer?If the prime minister knew about it, he might have the intention to kill someone.

He Xingzhou shrugged and said helplessly: "The prime minister's daughter, Bo Yuntian, devoted herself to the country. She insisted on doing so, so I had no choice but to agree. Everything was proposed by Yue Bai'an voluntarily. The prime minister can't blame me."
