Shen Lingjun took a deep look at the float that was drifting away, but he didn't see any resemblance between that woman and Qinglian.
"Qing Lian doesn't have any sisters, but she does have a few brothers." He withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Ling Xiao.
But since Ling Xiao said that that woman looks exactly the same as Qing Lian, she must not be mistaken.
"Could it be a trick like disguise?" Yun Jinghu blinked at Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao shook his head slightly, looked away and looked in another direction: "Go to Wang Zhang to visit first."
Shen Lingjun heard the words, and asked several people implicitly: "Your Majesty and the Holy Queen plan to go in with Wen or Wu?"
"What's the difference between civil and military?" Yun Jinghu was puzzled.
Seeing that several people were looking at him, Shen Lingjun explained softly: "Wu's going in is just like this. Wen's going in is to first hand over the greeting card to the guards, and then let the king's tent come to you after getting their king's consent." lead them in."
Anyway, with Chu Hanyi and Ling Xiao present, even facing the military strength of a country, Shen Lingjun could deal with it calmly.
Ling Xiao groaned for a moment: "Rites first, soldiers later."
Shen Lingjun understood, and took out a copy that had been prepared from his sleeve, spread it out and held it in front of Yunjing Lake: "Please also leave a seal on it with the jade seal, Your Majesty."
The jade seal is the seal of the emperor himself. Usually, when dealing with some informal official affairs, the jade seal is used to show the emperor's imperial approval when it is not necessary to use the jade seal.
Yun Jinghu glanced at it, and it turned out to be a customs clearance document.
"When will you be ready?" Yun Jinghu asked curiously while skillfully placing his own jade seal.
"Last night, when His Majesty decided to come to Yiluo Country in person." Shen Lingjun withdrew the document and led several people along the street.
"But why is the identity above this certificate the Minister of Weaving in Tongzhou?" Yun Jinghu asked again.
"The Yiluo Kingdom is far away from the Great Yong Dynasty. Unlike our Great Yong Dynasty, which emphasizes agriculture and despises merchants, they rely on this commercial channel for their survival. Merchants have an unusually distinguished status in Yiluo, let alone from the Great Yong Dynasty. An imperial businessman who came from afar. Using this identity as a cover, they will not hide from us many things that cannot be known by the imperial court, and we don't have to be restrained when we inquire about the news, and it is cheaper to do things." Shen Lingjun analyzed clearly.
However, Yunjinghu heard something different from it: "You mean, these imperial merchants act outside in the name of the imperial family, but they may not be loyal to the imperial court?"
Otherwise, how dare those people tell them what they dare not say to the courtiers?
Shen Lingjun smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, merchants seek profit, even the imperial merchants are not exempt. At the beginning, the eight imperial merchants personally appointed by Emperor Shengwu received the gift of hereditary succession, and now the heads of their major families have changed for several generations. How many people can maintain the original intention of the year, who can be sure?"
Slowly speaking, the situation is unpredictable, and the human heart becomes faster than anything else.
Yun Jinghu looked at Shen Lingjun thoughtfully: "You have a lot of troubles in your heart. After you return to the court, you will be in charge of the rectification of the royal family of the royal family."
Shen Lingjun nodded slightly, and said confidently: "This humble minister leads the order."
His grandfather resigned because of the anger of the first emperor who made him a son, and at the same time cut off the official career of his father's generation.
It's just a saying, if you learn literary and martial arts, you can sell it to the emperor's family.Not all the uncles in his family were willing to live in seclusion in the mountains, but they didn't dare to disobey their father, so they had to waste their lives, but taught all their knowledge to their descendants.
Fortunately, before his death, the old man finally let go, and admitted in front of his children and grandchildren that he was the one who was pedantic.
Although the first emperor conferred the title of male queen, his personal morals were deficient, but he was able to clean up the government, rectify the administration of officials, strictly investigate corruption, appoint talents and promote talents, and created a prosperous age of sage and martial arts. This is something that many emperors wanted to do but failed to do.
Therefore, if the descendants of the Shen family want to become officials, they can do as they please.It's just that no matter where you are, don't forget the words 'benefiting the people'.
After the death of Mr. Shen, Shen Lingjun kept his filial piety for a year, and the next year he took part in the imperial examination and won three yuan. The crown prince presided over it, and it ended in a mess, and Shen Lingjun didn't even have the chance to see the late emperor's face.
The champion of the new department was finally sent to Anyi by several cabinet elders to make a five-rank Anyi order. It is almost more difficult for the local officials who were originally released to make any achievements. Even Shen Lingjun himself occasionally Because of being depressed and frustrated, I made an idyllic poem about wanting to retreat.
No one expected that the current Holy Majesty would go on tour in a low-clothes, and Shen Lingjun happened to be in the eyes of the Emperor, and even got the advice of the Holy Empress himself, and was conferred the title of Doctor Guanglu of the third rank by the Emperor, which can be said to have been promoted six levels in a row.
If there is no accident, with his talent and intelligence, it is just around the corner that he will rise to the top and become a celebrity.
Now that Yun Jinghu has asked him to take over the investigation of this matter, it is already his intention to reuse him, Shen Lingjun naturally swept away the previous depression, and became more and more proud.
The king's tent of the Yiluo Kingdom was originally just a large-scale round tent. As a nomadic people living on the grasslands, the Yiluo people had no fixed territory at first.
More than 100 years ago, the Yiluo Kingdom chose to establish the country on the desert grassland, and looked forward to dividing it from the precarious Dayong Dynasty to a piece of land with rich water and grass as its national territory.
However, although their expectations fell through later, Dayong Dynasty made up for it all in another way.
The Yong Dynasty actively established trade relations with neighboring countries to communicate with each other, and Yiluo Kingdom, as a transportation hub, naturally assumed the role of a transfer station, and suddenly became one of the most prosperous small countries among the 72 countries in the Western Regions.
Although they have settled down, they are still accustomed to calling the place where the royal family lives as the king's tent.
In the center of the king's tent in Yiluo Kingdom is a white building with a vaulted and pointed top. The base is painted with seven or eight kinds of auspicious patterns such as exquisite golden wheels, double fishes, conch shells, and precious umbrellas. It looks extraordinarily exquisite and gorgeous.
In front of the palace gate of the king's tent, a group of guards holding scimitars stood on the left and right sides.
The weather was hot, and the sweat on their foreheads was dripping drop by drop, but they still kept their backs straight and stood motionless under the scorching sun.
"This little general is polite." Shen Lingjun stepped up and down, put his right hand on his left shoulder, and performed the national salute of Yiluo country familiarly, "This is our document, we hope to meet with His Majesty the king, I don't know if it's possible?"
Hearing the words, the young general took a look at the document, and told Shen Lingjun expressionlessly: "The characters in the Central Plains are unrecognizable."
Shen Lingjun: "..."
"Wait a minute, our captain will be here soon, he can read the characters of the Central Plains." The young general added.
Shen Lingjun had no choice but to wait with the rest of the people beside him.
"Now people in Yiluo country can still speak a few words of Central Plains dialect, which is much better than before." Ling Xiao heard that the people of Yiluo country who came and went could basically speak a few simple words of Central Plains official dialect, and felt slightly nod.
When he led his troops to fight here, ten out of ten Yiluo people he met could not speak the Mandarin of the Central Plains, and even among their royal family and nobles, those who could speak the Central Plains dialect were very rare.
Therefore, at the end of that battle, the soldiers of the Yiluo Kingdom mastered the Chinese dialects of "I surrender", "Stop fighting", and "I will lead you the way" very proficiently.
"If they want to make money, they must learn the Central Plains dialect." Shen Lingjun smiled, "If you don't know the Central Plains dialect, you won't be able to do business here for a long time."
After all, [-]% of the caravans coming and going on this road came from the Dayong Dynasty.
While the two were talking, they saw a tall man walking towards them.The man and the guard who guarded the gate began to communicate in Yiluo language.
"What are you talking about?" Yun Jinghu raised his jaw.
"The man asked what we do? Is there any gold and silver filial piety. The man said that we handed over the document, but did not give filial piety. Well, the man said that we should ignore us for now." Shen Lingjun said with a slightly embarrassed expression.
Ling Xiao has seen a lot: "King Hades is easy to see, but the little devil is hard to deal with. If you don't give me any favors, I'm afraid I won't be able to see King Yiluo today. You can give him some sweets."
Shen Lingjun's expression became even more embarrassing, and he showed Ling Xiao his empty hands: "It's not that I'm stingy, it's really... I'm shy in my pocket and I don't have much in my possession."
As a fifth-rank official, his annual salary is only 120 taels of silver, plus 150 hulumi.These salaries are enough to support his family, but when Anyi was hit by a disaster a while ago, Shen Lingjun not only donated all his salary, silver and rice, but also moved a lot of tax money in the government treasury.
Although Yunjinghu had opened the golden mouth, exempting him from the crime of tampering with tax money, but asking him to pay half a tael of silver at this moment is more difficult than killing him.
As a result, the eyes of the rest of the people turned to Yunjing Lake.
Yun Jinghu looked at them blankly: "I don't have any money on me."
When he left the palace, he sneaked out disguised as a little eunuch, so he didn't remember what money he had to bring.
If there are expenses, Mo Yun is responsible all the way.It's just that Mo Yun's whereabouts are unknown now, and Yun Jinghu's whole body, except for a big cloak that is not needed here that seems to be worth a few silver, is also a breeze.
In fact, he has a valuable purple pearl on his body, but it was given to him by his father, and he is not willing to take it out to bribe the guard at the gate.
Ling Xiao and Chu Hanyi looked at each other, and said firstly: "Don't look at me, the things on this gentleman are the things of the heavens, and they must not be handed over to humans."
Chu Hanyi also frowned in a rare way: "I am the head of Qingxuguan..."
"Okay, you don't need to say it, I know that the bull-noseds of Qingxuguan are getting poorer than the other, and even a pair of cloth shoes can't wait to be passed on for three generations." Ling Xiao's expression was slightly disgusted.
"Father, aren't you a god in the sky? Can't you touch stones to gold?" Yun Jinghu asked in a low voice, "Should gods know this kind of magic?"
Ling Xiao shook his head lightly: "Turning stone into gold is just a trick to deceive the eyes. As a celestial being, my character does not allow me to use this kind of illusion to deceive ordinary people."
Several people looked at each other and fell into silence.
Speaking of which, these four people are all people with great backgrounds, the newly-appointed third-rank doctor Guanglu in the Yong Dynasty, the emperor above ten thousand people in the Yong Dynasty, the leader of the cultivation world and the head of Qingxuguan, um, there is also a Daluo Jinxian from the heaven .
However, these few people couldn't even offer a bribe of ten taels of silver, so they could only stand still and pick their fingers.
"Master Shen, use this." Suddenly, Yun Jinghu gave Shen Lingjun a mandarin duck in his hand.
Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows, tsk, isn't it the one he gave Mo Yun earlier?
"It's useless to keep it anyway." Yun Jinghu added lightly.
Hearing this, Lingxiao glanced at Yunjinghu's expression from the corner of his eye, and then nodded slightly to Shen Lingjun.
Well, since Zai Zai doesn't want it, then don't.
"Qing Lian doesn't have any sisters, but she does have a few brothers." He withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Ling Xiao.
But since Ling Xiao said that that woman looks exactly the same as Qing Lian, she must not be mistaken.
"Could it be a trick like disguise?" Yun Jinghu blinked at Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao shook his head slightly, looked away and looked in another direction: "Go to Wang Zhang to visit first."
