Femme Beauty

At Daying in Gyeonggi, all the generals looked at the young man sitting where Jia Jing used to sit, and they all had various guesses in their hearts.Some thought that after all, they were trained by Lao Shangfeng himself, and they would definitely be better than blue.Some thought that this would not be a trap set by the emperor.Right now, Gyeonggi Daying, although the internal competition is fierce, but in the final analysis, they are the same externally.

Jia Lian took a sip of tea and moistened his throat.Putting down the tea bowl, I wiped my fingers with the hot towel prepared on the side: "It's the first time I've seen you all today. Uncle Jing was here in the past, and I seldom come here. I asked for this position."

What he said straight to the point made these generals very surprised.They never thought that this standard Confucian scholar with the status of Tanhualang and Linge Lao would have such a direct way.

Jia Lian sighed and looked at the map on the large table: "What do you guys think...how is the situation in the Northwest now?"

"The battle situation is anxious, and I'm afraid nothing will happen in a short time." It was a general who answered.

Jia Lian picked up a small bamboo pole on one side and pointed to the northwest position on the map: "The northwest region experienced a severe drought a few years ago. These years, it has not been good. At that time, the emperor was worried that farming would be backward, and there was a shortage of people in the south. Let’s recruit labor from the north to the south on a large scale. At present, many towns in this area may not even have beggars.”

What he said was the truth. Everyone present was the leader of the battle, and no one did not understand the emptiness of these towns and the result of the march.This is also the result of why the Xixia invasion was so convenient after the rebellion in Ping'an Prefecture.However, right now the soldiers are all at the Beiya pass, unable to move.Dali and others in the southwestern region are eyeing up again.The army of the king of Xining can only defend there.But fortunately, the terrain in Sichuan and Sichuan is dangerous, as long as the Xining County King does not have any problems.

Jia Lian looked up at them, and said in a low tone, "Even if it costs my father and the veterans' lives, I'm afraid the war in the Northwest can only drag on for three to five years at most. What about after three or five years? There was a flood in the south of the Yangtze River the year before last." If the dams were destroyed earlier, there might not be enough food and grass if the dams were not destroyed earlier. You also know that the meritorious service in the imperial court is intertwined, and most of them are not doing their jobs. Seeing the situation is not good, there are more people fleeing Jiangnan. I am coming back this time. I brought my wife back together. But my two sons and younger brother are all in Jinling. I wonder if you would like to refute with me."

"You know you can't hold on, so what can you do if you refute?" The one who spoke was a veteran, his age was about the same as Jia Lian's father.Jia Lian looked at him and smiled slightly: "We are all old. Although I look young, I am not a young man after all. There is a natural danger in the Yangtze River in the south of the Yangtze River. We just want to delay time. There is nothing wrong with Gyeonggi right now. There are so many things, I think it is better to take advantage of the anxiety of the front line and move the population of large cities and towns to the south of the Yangtze River. Take as much as you can. It is best not to leave anything behind. The emperor has already allowed me to do this. Now, let's see what to do."

Having said that, Jia Lian raised a smug smile.Hearing what he said, the surrounding generals felt as if they had seen that ruthless ghost scholar back then.For the first time, this young man looked very similar to Lin Ruhai.While chatting and laughing, there was the shadow of Wang Ziteng.But in doing things, he carries the essence of Mr. Jia Jingning.If the younger generation is like this, the family business will not worry about it!

It is easy for them to understand that the people brought out by Jia Jing are very pragmatic.They didn't continue to worry about Jia Lian's age, but quickly took their bamboo poles and started planning against the map.

They studied carefully, and made detailed discussions on how to delay the time from the route to the population at the township level.Jia Lian didn't say a word, but asked the secretary who followed him to record every word they said.Soon, a solid and effective plan was mentioned. Jia Lian looked at the clerk's arrangement, turned over the pages, put them on the table and put them in a sheepskin bag and got up: "I am going to the palace to report. Already, my lords, rectify the sergeants and make it clear to them at the same time. It’s not that we don’t guard, but for the sake of future generations, we must do so.”

"Young Master Jia, don't worry. Those soldiers who are fighting against the enemy at the front line will ensure that their families are safe. There will be nothing wrong with this matter." Looking at Jia Lian who did not interfere from the beginning to the end, everyone had a good impression of him.

Jia Lian didn't even have lunch, so he hurried into the palace.Mu Chengze was having lunch at this time, seeing that Jia Lian didn't eat even after asking, so he left him to eat with him.Jia Lian was not polite either, but sat down and picked up the chopsticks and started using them.Mu Chengze stopped his chopsticks, looked at the meeting minutes made on the paper, and asked the waiter on one side to take the Zhu Zhu, wrote a quasi-flower and a circle on it, and put it aside.

"Let's go back and sort it out, the matter of the last book was settled. I used the black cloud pattern to make a secret book of martial arts."

Jia Lian wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and nodded.He said while holding his favorite dish: "I also feel that this matter should not be known to the court. But regarding the front line, I think it is better to inform. It is better to just make a private announcement."

"En!" Mu Chengze nodded: "Let Qiaoer arrange someone to go to the front line later. You write a letter to your father in private."

"Yes!" Jia Lian responded, and continued eating without saying a word.Seeing his relaxed appearance, Mu Chengze suddenly found it amusing.This kid... seems to be determined that he has nothing to do with him?But looking at him like this, I feel that the days ahead will not be so difficult.

What people fear most is death, but what people fear most is the day when they know they are going to die and they have to face difficulties and seek death.

Mu Chengze is living like this now, in fact, he can tolerate Jia Lian's presumptuousness, largely because Jia Lian is also living like this.

After lunch, Jia Lian went to the office prepared by the military department, sat down carefully and sorted out the words of the generals, excerpted them one by one and signed by whom.He made two copies of this booklet, one for the emperor's mausoleum and one for the emperor's mausoleum to take home for archiving.He wants to let people who rely on natural dangers in the later stage and can still live safely know that not all people are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they are not for personal safety but for the foundation of their children and grandchildren.

After finishing the booklet, it was already evening.On the way out of the palace, the surrounding officials seldom communicated with him because they were not familiar with him.Tanhualang, a former criminal, is now the third-rank official, the governor of Gyeonggi, and the successor of Sanding.No matter which one it is, it makes Jia Lian's identity irresistible.

After getting into the carriage, the person who picked him up was still one of Xingwang.The two of them followed Jia Lian with their wives, but Jia Lian was originally unwilling.But they also said that no matter what their master wants to do, he always has to be served.Even if foreign soldiers enter, they will not cause trouble for these inferior people.

Back home, the Lixiangyuan next to the Rongxi Hall became the residence of the young couple.Jia Amnesty was not there, and neither was Mrs. Xing.There is no reason to open the front door.Jia Lian came in through the side door, just in time to see Wang Xifeng on the kang waiting for him to have dinner together.

For two people, three or four dishes of dishes are very simple, without those delicacies, just ordinary home cooking, but the dim light makes Jia Lian feel warm.

He asked someone to prepare a small wine, and gave himself and Wang Xifeng a glass each.No binge drinking, just a drink with the dishes.

Jia Lian's brochures went up quickly, and the next day Mu Chengze saw the brocade and cloud pattern brochures on his case, and he read them carefully.I found that Jia Lian's note was written very clearly, without any intention of taking credit.Which general that strategy came from, made it clear one by one.He sighed, Lin Ruhai's sharp eyesight.

The decree was issued in the afternoon.The Gyeonggi generals who heard the decree approved of Jia Lian, the young Master Jia.No personal credit, much less arrogance.This young man was walking around with that upright spirit.

The emperor's will is that the current border war is anxious, which is very bad for the people near the border.There is no need to consider the safety of Gyeonggi for the time being, and some people are sent to the front line to take the subjects there to the inland, and those who migrate with their families can even go to Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Huguang.

This decree did not cause any waves in the court.It should be said that a period of time after the emperor's death caused the current emperor's speech.Fortunately, Mu Chengze's actions are not just arrogant.

The winter snow is dancing, and the New Year is coming.Many houses in the capital were decorated with lanterns and festoons, and Wang Xifeng also took her maidservant to paste window grilles in her own home, and set up a porridge shed near the temple.

After the new year, the emperor begins to write, and the yamen begins to work.Wang Xifeng noticed sensitively that the noble families around him began to move out.They are not going to go to war, but a small group of small groups.The servant girl reminded her of this matter, but she just sighed.After Wang Ziteng passed away, Mrs. Wang Ziteng returned to Jinling alone with her family property.In this capital city, they are considered unaccompanied.

Due to the freezing weather, the battle situation did not expand.In the surrounding counties and counties, a large number of people have left, and the roads are much safer.Wang Xifeng decided to write a letter to Mrs. Xing, asking future generations to accept her as well as possible.The good land in the family needs to be cultivated by farmers, and it is promised that if they can cultivate it for five years, they will have one-third of the rights.Wait until 20 years, you can settle in your own.

Hearing what she said, Jia Lian thought it was a solution, so he wrote a note and gave it to Mu Chengze.At the Great Court Meeting, he didn't want such a good thing, but was blocked by the officials of the entire court.After all, if the entire imperial court moves south now, the land at home must be a possibility for the family to rise up.Without those lands, how to settle down locally?

Jia Lian stood in the center of the hall, quietly listening to the commotion of those people.There was a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, and the noise was over after those people.He strolled forward two steps, glanced sharply around, and made those people look at him: "My lords, the stability of the people's livelihood is the foundation of the country. It is a bit shy for me to propose this note. After all This is not a good policy of this official, but this official's daughter-in-law. That woman is soft-tempered, even if she sees a cat or a dog, she will give up her food. Moving people to the land is itself for the sake of the future national society. A few years ago in the South Plague, followed by floods, and the loss of labor is all over the wilderness. I am afraid you have never seen it before. I have only counted it there for ten years. The land is occupied by private households, and there are people who opened up wasteland in two or three years. In four or five years, the long-term tenants must be earned by the main family. However, this official said something ugly here, there are less than ten people in my family, and food and clothing only depend on salary, which alone is enough Yes. There are more human contacts, but it’s just a Zhuangzi’s. My lords, have you planted so much land? Have you eaten so much food?”

His words were sharp and harsh.The people present did not dare to refute, but they hated the young official in front of them.

When Wang Xifeng heard about the incident in the court, she looked at Jia Lian who was going home to Muxiu, and smiled while getting him boiled peanuts: "You are actually causing trouble! If Uncle and Uncle Lin are still here, I am afraid you will scold him. kill you."

Jia Lian chewed peanuts, which tasted very sweet.He sneered and pinched his wife's tender face: "What are you afraid of? We are barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. In the end, they all have to leave. They are going to kneel down and bow down to Prince Cheng. Yingchun must be the prince. , the future empress. Why should I worry about this, you see that we will be loyal to the country in the future. Plus the serious relatives and nobles of the founding emperor...what can they do to me?"

Jia Lian understood clearly, but Wang Xifeng listened to the excitement.The women around said that they lamented that their master and grandma were matched by gods but they were thinking about that.

Although the court ministers were very reluctant about this matter, Mu Chengze's imperial edict was still issued.They don't force it, but if they become a royal family, they will subsidize the loss and reward the mistress. For example, Wang Xifeng is now ordered by the second-rank wife because of Jia Lian's book.This is much luckier than those women who are still waiting at home for their men to earn their fortunes.

Jia Lian didn't know what would happen to those adults, but he felt that their backyard would be very lively in the future.The land produces these things, and spreading them out a little is nothing to those women.But after meeting, it is obvious that she is a female family member of a second-rank official, but she wants to bow her head to a female family member of a third-rank official. This matter has become quite lively.

Things are bustling to the end of spring, early summer.This year's summer is extremely hot, Jia Lian heard from Qin Tianjian that there will be another severe drought.He recalled the years in his memory, when wealthy households in central and central Beijing seized the opportunity to buy and sell rice grains, which once caused the price of grains to rise.After the morning court, he returned home instead of going to Gyeonggi Daying.Wang Xifeng was sitting on the kang, making shoes and socks for her two children in Jinling.Seeing Jia Lian come back, he was very surprised.

"Why did you come back so early?"

"Is the money and food brought by the family a surplus?" Jia Lian took a big gulp of Wang Xifeng's cold tea.Wang Xifeng was very surprised when he heard his question.Then I thought about it, isn't this season the second year that the Rongguo Mansion collapsed?At that time, the price of rice and grain soared, and even those with some spare money had to save money.

"You want to..." She looked at Jia Lian tentatively.Jia Lian nodded: "Buying and selling, first collect all the grain that the rich households can harvest. Then lower the price. This year's severe drought and emigration are still going on, so there is no food on the way."

Wang Xifeng calculated carefully and nodded: "I'm afraid our family can't do this. It's true that we have saved a lot of food these years. But for the market here, it's just a drop in the bucket. You still have to report to the emperor. Before the wind rises, press down first."

When Jia Lian heard this, he nodded, "You still have a good idea, I don't know these things if I'm not in charge."

Seeing his flattery, Wang Xifeng lowered his head and smiled.

Mu Chengze hated the unscrupulous raising of food prices.Therefore, after the Qintianjian issued an early warning of the severe drought, it drafted a decree to warn rich grain households that if they found out that they were driving up grain prices, they would be severely punished.Confiscate the food stored at home and scatter the farmers.

Although, the emperor made a decree.But the people have become accustomed to the situation where there are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom, where officials protect each other and people's livelihood is ignored.If you talk about the emperor, people are actually more willing to spend some money to eliminate disasters.

Wang Xifeng understood it better than Jia Lian, so when some shops in Jia's family bought rice grains at a low price and sold them at a price three cents higher than the purchase price, some people went to the court hall to visit Jia Lian's wife's house to buy and sell grain, and bid them up. food prices.However, Wang Xifeng's price was much lower than the market, and the result was nearly [-]% lower than that. Many grain merchants also took a fancy to Jia's stock.

In this regard, Wang Xifeng only had people record the people who came to buy grain in bulk, and what she sold was indeed cheap.If these grain merchants can do their duty to sell grain in the future, that's all.Who doesn't have three relatives and two friends in the capital?

But if it goes too far, then the purchase agreement she has in hand will become a reminder for those people.She is waiting, waiting for the winter to come.

Sure enough, in the past autumn, a large number of people transited southward in the capital, and food became a necessity.Those who bought grain at a low price before still drove up the price of grain.What they are based on is that the people do not oppose officials and do not rectify.To put it bluntly, at present, every household hopes to fill their own pockets through this food hype, and no one will do things that cut off talent.But things, after all, backfired.At the court after the winter solstice, Jia Lian sent half of the officials in the court with a memorial.

Jia Lian discussed this matter with Mu Chengze in advance.The purpose of the three years in the DPRK and China was nothing more than to buy time for the immigrants.Therefore, many government affairs are left alone.A large number of basic officials were sent to the south.Even the internal government order has moved away the entire set of institutions.Only a part of the old people were left to serve here.

Jia Lian's reference book shocked the government and the public for a while.But they couldn't do anything about Jia Lian, and they were all thinking about going home and wiping their butts.Will Mu Chengze give them this time?Obviously not, after a burst of anger, all the ministers stayed in the hall of the Great Dynasty, waiting for the inner government order and the Red Snake Guards to cooperate to raid the house.But fortunately, there are too many officials involved, so they are picked up heavily and put down gently.Just copied part of the family property and confiscated it.Of course, the advantage is that since then, no one dared to drive up prices.

Jia Amnesty returned to the capital with young soldiers at the beginning of spring.The order Mu Chengze gave was to delay if you can, and to retreat if you can't.Keeping the green hills are not shooting firewood.At this time, the climate in the north is not suitable for raising people.Simply for the sake of these lands, it would not be cost-effective to waste elite troops.Jia She personally thinks the same reasoning.The soldiers in the army, when they heard that their families should be evacuated to the south first, and the emperor would return the land to settle down, etc., they put a lot of care in dealing with the matter.When Jia Amnesty came back with his elite soldiers, all the old soldiers were left behind, not many in number.All of them are to create obstacles for the other party and help delay the time.It was also after Jia Amnesty came back that Mu Chengze gave the order to evacuate all the people.Just himself, until the last moment.

Many people in the court were dissatisfied with this, but they thought that their own Erlang could not die on the battlefield.I can only talk and play tricks.Right now, the Xixia army is not in the way, but there are already elite soldiers and strong generals waiting there at the Beiya pass.They had just wiped out Liao, and it was the time when their morale was at their best.

The author has something to say: There are still the last two or three pictures!

Thank you for your support all the time, although I always skip tickets, and even I am personally not satisfied with the creation of this work.

If it can be stretched and become a work of about 80 words, I think the content of this story I want to express will be more clear.

Unfortunately, as a romance, about 40 words is the habit of most readers, whether you are a fan or not.When I first discussed with the editor, I also got stuck on this.

The story is over, and the next one I want to drive may be Mrs. Xing, the top professional mistress, or Sister Lin who is reborn with the Jiansan system.

But from my personal habit of creating characters, I prefer those like Wang Xifeng.

In May, the new book of Red Chamber will be released. After the three Red Chamber books, they will be customized together.Hope you all can join us!
