At the end of October, only two days after King Yan arrived in Beijing, Emperor Longkang's edict spread to the palace.

"Ah Lin is here?"

The serving eunuch brought a red lacquer food box into the door and set it up properly. Pumpkin clams, shredded cod fish stewed in flower juice oil, and a pot of fresh venison are all seasonal but rare dishes.

Emperor Longkang was at the top, and when he heard the sound of the curtain, he asked the visitor with half-closed eyes.

Huang Deyong said somewhat cautiously: "My lord stumbled on something on the way into the palace, I'm afraid the meeting will have to be postponed, why don't the sage eat first?"

The matter of heaven and earth is not as big as the matter of Mian Sheng. Emperor Pianlong and Kang didn't change his expression, "Ah Lin is different now. There are always people who are sophisticated in the officialdom. Let him go. Ask someone to withdraw this venison. Simmer it on the stove before serving it, Ah Lin doesn’t like cold food.”

Huang Deyong was just about to go, when a voice came from outside the hall: "His Royal Highness King Yan is here——"

"Chen brother, I have met the emperor." Feng Lin stepped through the door, knelt down with cold robes, and abided by the rules in every move.

Emperor Longkang pressed his finger on the jade ring, and said with a smile: "It hasn't changed for a few days, and my stature has grown a bit. I have read the memorials reported by the cabinet, and I have done a good job. I have also approved the papers for rewards. Why don't you see them from the top?" Your own name."

Feng Lin was taken by the eunuch to take the outer cloak, and sat down. Hearing this question, he lowered his head slightly and said in a muffled voice: "I don't want anything."

Emperor Longkang laughed loudly, lit the venison in front of him, and said: "Since that's the case, I will reward you with this pot to drive away the hard work of traveling."

The atmosphere during the banquet was relaxed, Emperor Longkang didn't eat much, put his chopsticks to rinse his mouth with tea, and said for a while: "I see that there is another item in the memorial on the petition, you want to open a port at the Kuichuan Ferry, allowing people to Merchant ships go out to sea and engage in trade?"

Feng Lin also stopped his chopsticks, and replied: "Brother Mingjian, Gurongtong City is actually determined to appease Fujian merchants. Regarding the surrender, the leader of the Chamber of Commerce, He Weizhang, put his ministers and younger brothers in a dilemma, and clamored for the banning of pepper in the shops in the three places. Sumu and other things, although there are many people with different ideas in Fujian merchants, most of them follow the trend. He Weizhang's house was ransacked, and everyone behind him was in panic. Seeing that the government of Fujian Province has gone through a great deal, it is impossible to travel on business again. , Doing so will also make ordinary merchants feel at ease."

Emperor Longkang caressed the fine pottery inlaid with gold around the mouth of the tea bowl, and his voice sank: "It is a rule set by the late emperor that a piece of armor should not go into the sea."

"The rule of the world has its causes and changes." Feng Lin said, "Minzhou is surrounded by mountains and seas, and it was supposed to be a prosperous place, but now it seems to be in such a state of decline, that even the money for the renovation of the coastal defense has to be collected by raiding the house? Corruption by officials is one thing, and trade barriers that result in tax revenues are another. If the emperor wants to rule Jin’ou for generations to come, according to the humble opinion of his ministers, he should slowly open up the mutual market.”

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

Huang Deyong was trembling with fear at the side, but he heard the saint ask slowly: "Who told you these great principles of governing the country?"

Feng Lin was silent.He didn't like to argue, even though he knew that it was suspicious that a prince who was exiled outside the pass had such insights, he still didn't say a word.

After being frozen for a moment, Huang Deyong stepped forward to give a thousand calls, and changed the subject: "Either you say that brothers are of the same heart, a sage is wise, and His Highness can be so deeply influenced by your ears. If you want to say that His Highness has achieved today, how can you just appreciate the pot?" That's enough, and the gold and silver fields have to follow, or discuss a good marriage—"

Feng Lin raised his head abruptly, and looked towards this side, his eyes were as cold as a knife's edge, and Huang Deyong's throat choked up when he saw it, and he didn't know which sentence stepped on the tail of this little highness.

Emperor Longkang was thinking in his eyes, and suddenly softened when his eyes touched a touch of red around his ears.He stared at the string of red agates, as if trying his best to catch a glimpse of an old shadow, and his suspicion was submerged in the warm current of nostalgia, leaving only a trace of ripples.

"That's all, as you say."

Emperor Longkang seemed to be a little tired, he stood up with the help of his left and right sides, and said to Feng Lin: "If you use some more, they are all your favorite dishes. If you don't have enough food and clothing outside, I will lose weight when I see you."

Feng Lin agreed to send Emperor Longkang away, and turned his head to Huang Deyong: "Brother Huang seems to be out of energy, is it because he hasn't had a good rest?"

Huang Deyong didn't hide it either: "Since the Fuya Palace incident happened, the sage has been suffering from nightmares, and these two days have somehow become more frequent, and several times when he woke up, he was still called by the name of Concubine Xuan... .”

Concubine Xuan, a title that is closely guarded in the whole palace.According to the history of Tong, in the 35th year of Qingyuan, the first emperor's concubine Xiahou and his foreign ministers had a filthy and chaotic palace. After being informed by others, they were deprived of their titles and entered Yongxiang. The next year, they gave birth to a son in Lenggong.

Talking about King Yan's life experience, Huang Deyong felt uneasy, looked at Feng Lin's face, but saw that the other party was not angry: "Since this is the case, you must serve more attentively. The king has something to do, so let's go first."

Feng Lin ate a few mouthfuls of venison, and Meng Dong's body was hot during the season. When he learned that Canglang had just entered Beijing, he was invited to have a drink at home by Chen Li, the censor doctor, and he felt even more troubled.

Especially when he rode his horse straight to kill the Chen family's mansion, but when he lifted the curtain and saw two people chatting happily in the corner, his eyes became even more gloomy.

The housekeeper followed behind him, tremblingly: "Do you need the younger one to go in and pass the news for the prince?"

Feng Lin glanced at him: "Hmph."

In fact, when Chen Li and Cang Lang had a conversation, they talked about business matters, and half of the words had nothing to do with Fengyue.

Cang Lang played with the wine glass, and said in a low voice, "Is what you said just now true? Gao Wujiu really wanted his son to marry Yunping County Lord? How could Wang Zhengxuan agree?"

No wonder he was surprised, Dingxi General Wang Zhengxuan was honest and honest half his life, he has always been tired of running around, and he never got along with his relatives.Ever since he interceded for Xiao Wanshan and others, he was sent to Xiguan to sit on the bench for many years, and he was even more severed from the court in the capital, and now he has traveled thousands of miles to marry his beloved daughter, who is actually the son of Shang and Gao Wujiu, this is not aggressive What a surprise.

Chen Li smiled wryly: "I can't help it, I'm poor. In the past few years, the Western Territory has garrisoned millions of troops in name, and farms for self-sufficiency. How about the food supply? We are married to the Gao family, and every year the military rations come from the grain fields, which can be regarded as drinking poison to quench thirst."

Cang Lang's brows moved slightly, and he sighed: "Is this considered to be a girl begging for food?"

"Not necessarily." Chen Li was a steady person, more like Hu Jingzhai's student than Cang Lang.He sipped the wine in his glass, raised his eyes and said indifferently: "The general is invincible in all battles, but he can't control the matter of this concubine's love."

Cang Lang was stunned for a moment, then smiled in comprehension, raised his neck and drank the wine in the glass: "Since the falling flowers chase the flowing water, and the flowing water is also a good thing, why does the teacher have to embarrass a pair of young children?"

Chen Li shook his head, and said: "Gao Wujiu not only intends to use military rations to win over Dingxi, he also intends to recommend Wang Lang, the son of Wang Zhengxuan, to be the commander of the Minzhou Guard and lead the Nanyang Navy. This time he also entered the capital with the team sending off his relatives .”

Cang Lang frowned: "Boy Lang is young, he is used to the sandy soil of Lishi, he has never experienced rough seas, Gao Wujiu's move, I am afraid that he is not trying to restrain the Wang family army, but at the same time use the marriage to take advantage of the situation to control the power of coastal defense. Killing two birds with one stone, he is really good at planning."

Chen Li admired secretly, said: "That's why the master said that this marriage is absolutely impossible. What's more, the person the county lord falls in love with is none other than Gao Wujiu's second son, Gao Zheng."

Hearing the name, Cang Lang trembled as he poured the wine, "Gao Zheng, he is not broken..."

The wine splashed out of the cup, leaving faint water stains on the table, Cang Lang sighed as he touched the pot, "What a crime."

After learning that the general's beloved daughter is Gao Zheng, Cang Lang's interest is not high, he drank wine one after another, and soon became slightly tipsy.

When Chen Li didn't talk about government affairs, he just cut the heart of yam, and he didn't know how to persuade him, so he said dryly for a long time: "I heard that senior brother is still living in Yanwang's mansion these days, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for daily life, why don't I help you in Jingmao?" Looking for a secluded courtyard in the alley—my lord!"

Feng Lin didn't know when she stood behind the two of them, her eyes darkened.

Chen Li lifted his robe and bowed down: "I have seen the prince."

Feng Lin didn't ask anyone to get up for a moment, and slowly bowed his head, the shadow restrained Chen Li from top to bottom.He didn't make a sound, but the invisible power descended in the calmness made Chen Li unable to lift his head, knelt down, unable to go anywhere.

"No need."

Just as Mr. Chen moistened the slightly dry lips and tried to say something to break the ice in the air, he heard two words slammed on the top.

"……what?"

Feng Lin is like a wolf cub who has only been offended, not afraid to warn his opponent and defend his territory in the most straightforward way.He embraced the drunk Cang Lang into his arms, covered him tightly from head to toe, and spoke coldly to Chen Li who was on the ground who didn't understand.

"Mr. has been in the palace for three years. You can live freely, so you don't need to worry about it."

Until the sound was far away and the house was empty, the pressure brought by that person still remained undiminished.

Chen Li stared at his knees, and took a deep breath: "Three years..."

"Hiss, lightly—"

Cang Lang lay on the edge, still drunk, knew who was waiting behind him, and didn't bother to pay attention.

Feng Lin was not happy, and his strength was heavier than before. The begonia fell into his hands, and it was rubbed quickly until it turned red.

"Brother Huang has given me the list of newly appointed officials in Minzhou. They are all experienced officials who have a good way of handling abuses. Lord Shoufu's vision is really extraordinary."

"……Um."

Feng Lin tilted his head, his eyes were fixed on the side of Cang Lang's face, and the agate was stained with water drops as he leaned over: "It's just like Xiao Wanshan in the Chunwei Circle that year."

As expected, the name swept the waves against the scales.Just when a scoop of hot water was poured into the slightly cooled bathtub, Cang Lang didn't know whether it was anger or heat, Cang Lang could only feel countless tiny hot water droplets rolling around in his body, like the minions of Gu insects, rolling his mind loose .

Feng Lin withdrew the heat as if no one was there, raised his body and continued, "It's just that the position of Minzhou Wei Commander is still vacant, Gao Wujiu probably wants his future in-laws to take over."

But Feng Lin is determined not to let him do what he wants, and the reason Cang Lang also understands, if the most important control of the sea falls into the hands of his relatives, then the previous upheaval in Minzhou is destined to become a joke.

Turning around in the Canglang water, he stared at him fiercely, the corners of his eyes were flushed in the shadow of the slanting light.

"The old general lost his wife in his early years, and he has only two children under his knees. You are not allowed to mess around."

Feng Lin leaned closer, and supported Cang Lang's chin with his fingers: "I know, didn't the master want to send me to him before to make a steel knife?"

Cang Lang's warning expression changed completely.

The anger that had been suppressed all night finally broke out, Feng Lin didn't feel owed, pushed back the tightly pursed lips, swam in with the tip of her tongue, pursued it, and tightened it.Until Cang Lang panted heavily and pushed him away.

His fingers were still clutching the collar uncontrollably.

In the blink of an eye, Cang Lang thought of something.

For example, every time the twin love voodoo occurs, it is when he feels resentment due to the past.

The deeper the resentment, the more you want to push back and get closer.

Feng Lin took the opportunity to dive into the water, cut through the water lines and found the extremely hot heart, "Sir, it's so hot."

Cang Lang couldn't bear it anymore, his fingers resting on the edge of the collar suddenly curled up, staring at those eyes and saying word by word: "I never thought of letting you be a knife."

Feng Lin was stunned for a moment, a trace of hesitation flashed across his eyes.Taking advantage of the situation, Cang Lang exerted his strength and pulled the person closer, his lips and teeth collided first.

Passion and desire quickly burned the two abnormal people, and Cang Lang guarded the embers, struggling in the sweat, sinking in the lingering death.A fishy sweetness filled the mouth and flowed down the corners of the lips.

He closed his eyes.

Do you want to collect debts? Come on then.
