reincarnated as king

It is midsummer in May, but the rain in Yangzhou is extremely abundant, and the drizzle sprinkles all over the water town.Amidst the misty clouds, a black-covered boat floated from the narrow waterway. The hull of the boat moved forward unhurriedly, making ripples on the water surface.The haze on the Linglong River and the rain from the falling water are mixed together, blurring the scenery in and out of the painting.White walls, black tiles, and a tall bluestone arch bridge across the river are slowly unfolding in front of your eyes like a scroll.

In the outer cabin of the boat, a boatman in a coir raincoat was rowing the scull, and there were three people sitting in the cabin.Two of them were talking with their hands, black and white pieces were strewn across the chessboard.The other person sat obliquely by the curtain, looking at the scenery outside the window, his eyes were far away and loose, revealing that the master was upright in a trance.

"Brother Fang's move is superior, and I'm willing to bow down." The young man in the blue shirt conceded defeat, sighed in admiration, then turned his head and asked the person by the window, "I wonder if Brother Huang is going to play a game?"

Bei Gongdi came back to his senses, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a half smile but not a smile: "Brother Yuan only got his long-cherished wish after pestering him all morning. How can I steal what others like?"

A smile quickly flashed across Fang Jingxuan's eyes, and she said to Yuan Yunzhi solemnly: "Do you want another dish?"

Yuan Yunzhi threw himself on the table and said: "It's not good, it's not good, you two imperial envoys sing together, young master, I have two fists and four hands! Brother Huang, I will meet you anyway, why do you always prefer Brother Fang? It's a big mistake."

Bei Gongdi quickly countered: "I don't favor him, but you?" He squinted Yuan Yunzhi up and down, and shook his head with a look of contempt.

"My young master was really heartbroken by your words. Hey, I have to find someone to comfort me when I get to the city." Yuan Yunzhi looked heartbroken and mournful.

Bei Gongdi rolled his eyes: "The two of us came to Pingjiang to find King Ning, and you just wanted to join in the fun. That's all for the fun, you made a lot of fuss along the way, but luckily you are lucky, Otherwise, I would have lost my life a long time ago.”

This Yuan Yunzhi had a bit of shit luck, seeing that every time he got into trouble and reached a critical moment, someone would always come to rescue the three of him, which made Bei Gongdi, who had not used the factory guard, feel admiration.

"Pingjiang and Duyang also have some business contacts. This time there is a happy event in Prince Ning's mansion, so I can come to ask for a glass of wedding wine. I want to see that for the sake of the two of you, the prince will not drive me out." Yuan Yunzhi has a cheeky face Hey hey smile.

The two bickered for a few words, and got off the boat at the pier in the evening.This place is a small town under the jurisdiction of Pingjiang Mansion. It was just when the rain stopped and the floor tiles were still wet. The pier was filled with shouts of fish sellers, and it was very lively.The three of Bei Gongdi walked lightly and walked towards the town.

The three people who paid the fare and left didn't notice that a strange light flashed in the dull and honest eyes of the boat father standing in the back cabin, and murmured: "Imperial envoy..." His gaze passed Fang Jingxuan and Yuan Yunzhi, and finally It was fixed on Bei Gongdi.

After Yuan Yunzhi found out the identities of the two after inquiring that day, he couldn't help but feel extremely novel, but he also seemed to not take it to heart.As usual, I traveled with Bei Gongdi and the two, and later I heard that I was going to Pingjiang in Yangzhou. Yuan Yunzhi immediately stalked and wanted to come here together. Bei Gongdi was concerned about the xenophobic practices in Jiangnan official circles, so he agreed He, the prefect's son, was traveling with him, so it would be more convenient on the road.

It's just that there is one more person, so it's not easy for Bei Gongdi to take the eunuch Zuo Chang with him, lest people see through the eunuch's body and infer his true identity.He ordered Zuo Chang and others to go overland to Pingjiang and wait.However, Bei Gongdi played a trick and secretly ordered him not to tell King Ning that he was coming to Pingjiang, and to carry out Weifu to the end.

Regardless of the emperor's intentions, the three of them rode a carriage to Ningwang's Mansion on the outskirts of Pingjiang in the setting sun.After arriving at the gate of the mansion, Bei Gongdi looked it over, and saw that the building built against the mountain was quiet yet luxurious.However, King Ning is obviously a smart man. He did not build the mansion according to the prince's regulations, but was inferior and built it according to the county prince's mansion.

Butler Ning Wang at the door was greeting the guests with a smile. When he turned his head and saw the three of them, Bei Gongdi showed a jade pendant in front of him, and the old butler immediately changed his color.

Bei Gongdi put his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "Take us to the prince."

The butler hurriedly responded, and with a smiling face, arranged for someone to stand at the door to replace him, and respectfully led the three of them into the palace.Yuan Yunzhi whistled, leaned into Bei Gongdi's ear and asked in a low voice, "Brother Huang, what did you show him? Such an aura." Bei Gongdi touched the piece in his hand that was engraved with "" The jade plaque of "Beijing Affairs Imperial System", smiled but did not answer.

The butler of Prince Ning's Mansion is so exquisite, it is impossible not to recognize this "Forbidden Palace" card.I'm afraid that at this time, I dare not guess the identities of the three of them.

When he came to the living room where the plaque of "Chunrong Hall" was hung, King Ning Bei Gongyi greeted him with a smile: "Several distinguished guests have come from thousands of miles away, I have lost something..." He just looked at Bei Gongdi of Qing Dynasty. Face, the remaining half of the sentence "I have lost my way" couldn't continue, my eyes widened, and I stammered: "Huang... Huang..."

"Hey, it's really a noble person who forgets things! But I haven't seen you for a few years. Why did the prince forget my name? My name is Huang Mingtian. This time, I was ordered by the emperor to come to Yangzhou to inspect on behalf of the emperor. If the prince does not give up, call me It's enough to be an adult." Bei Gongdi cut off his words, and quickly reported his identity as an alias outside.

Seeing that he was looking around with great interest, King Ning couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat, and put away his overwhelmed look in an instant, and said with a nervous smile: "Master Huang, please sit down, please sit down. He secretly groaned in his heart. He heard that Yujia was still in the Oulu Mansion on the border of Xuzhou and Yangzhou, but Bei Gongdi came to him, and even used an alias. He didn't want to speculate about the complexity of the matter, and only asked for peace in the past few days. Don't let anything happen.

Fang Jingxuan showed his face immediately, and King Ning Beigong also recognized him, he couldn't help but twitched his cheeks, gave a wry smile, and hesitated for a while, not knowing how to greet him.Fang Jingxuan was quite understanding and said first: "In the lower scene. I heard that the prince married a beautiful woman, so I came here with Mr. Huang to congratulate you."

King Ning Bei Gongqian responded indifferently, and turned his eyes to the last person: "Who is this?"

"Yuan Yunzhi, Xiaosheng, Yuan Zhengyun, the magistrate of Duyang, my father." Yuan Yunzhi saluted, and just now saw that King Ning and Huang Tian seemed to be familiar with each other, but the atmosphere of the reunion was strange for no reason.

Sitting in the first guest seat, Bei Gongdi said with a smile, "Could it be that the lord is still thinking about that matter? It's just that as a bachelor of servants, I always have some unavoidable things. I hope the lord will be considerate." The words not only explained the embarrassing meeting to outsiders, but also found a way for King Ning who was at a loss.

Bei Gongyi, whose buttocks were only touched by a third of the stool, dared not say no, and waved his hands repeatedly.Yuan Yunzhi was suddenly a little stunned, it turned out that Huang Tian was a close minister of the emperor, maybe King Ning was caught in the pigtails when he was in Beijing earlier, that's why the two of them met so delicately.

Yuan Yunzhi also interjected: "Brother Huang is right, the prince is also a magnanimous person, today is a happy day, everyone should be happy together."

Bei Gongdi nodded, and said meaningfully: "My lord is diligent in business and taxation in Pingjiang, so I will naturally say something nice." Hearing the words, King Ning did not dare to say anything, but in his heart, Yuan Yunzhi dared to be like this and Bei Gongdi He was secretly startled when he spoke, and those who didn't know were not afraid. If he didn't dare to talk to Bei Gongdi like this, if he really did, he might be able to see Lord Yan tomorrow.

King Ning racked his brains to find a topic, and forced the host and guest to have a happy chat. Bei Gongdi asked about the local customs and customs of Pingjiang, and his words were somewhat fascinated.

"It really is a paradise on earth!" Bei Gongdi praised sincerely.King Ning laughed with him, and the light in his eyes flashed away: "I don't know the emperor—how long will your lord stay here? This king can also take the wind and wash away the dust, and talk about the friendship of the landlord."

Bei Gongdi glanced at him with a half-smile, and said vaguely: "You don't need to bother the prince. I also want to stay in Pingjiang for a few more days, or even permanently. It's a pity that I still have an official appointment, so I have to regret it."

King Ning inadvertently breathed a sigh of relief, and invited the three of them to walk around the palace.One step behind, King Ning, Bei Gongqian, raised his head and saw Bei Gongdi and Fang Jingxuan in front of him, ignoring the way his master was talking and laughing, he couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart.Thinking of Fang Jingxuan's promotion to the Duke of Zhenbei a few years ago, he was added as a first-rank Shaobao, and his holy family was thick, so his power and position were more important than that of a prince, but if he only explained it by the harmony between the monarch and his ministers, it seemed a little bit wrong.

Prince Ning Bei Gongqian saw Yuan Yunzhi, who was alone behind him, relishing in enjoying the scenery alone, he had a thought in his mind, and couldn't help but leaned over and asked enthusiastically: "Brother Yuan, I don't know when you met Mr. Huang and Mr. Fang. Do adults know each other?"

An ambiguous smile suddenly appeared on Yuan Yunzhi's face, and the corner of King Ning's mouth twitched when he saw it. He shook his head and recited a poem without answering: "Peach blossoms and flowing water go away, there is no other world than the world." The pensive King Ning took a look and followed.

Bei Gongkui slowed down, this sentence was written by a poet, could it mean how many people met in the mountains?However, what happened to Yuan Yunzhi's weird smile before, when he couldn't figure it out, a thought suddenly crossed his mind, "Peach Blossoms and Flowing Water" is also a famous silk pattern in Duhu, which means blessing Lovers are in love with each other, could it be...

For a moment, King Ning felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his gaze passed over the two of Bei Gongdi closely, and stopped on Fang Jingxuan's and Bei Gongdi's interlaced eyes, their subtle yet obvious movements.He stayed where he was and shook his head vigorously, speaking incoherently: "...No way...fourth brother...this..."

Although King Ning was re-appointed and seized the military power, he is still a prince of a generation and the seventh younger brother of the current emperor.Bei Gongdi didn't make him the King of Leisure, but made him responsible for the pilot business and tax contracting in Pingjiang.Since the north-south trade system was established on the mainland in the past few years, Pingjiang's commerce has developed rapidly, and the advantages of this advanced management system are immediately reflected.

After the university scholar Wang Shan arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, he relaxed the restrictions of the commercial tax contracting system. Many local government officials who also wanted to follow the Pingjiang contracting system came to Ning Wang to learn from him before passing his approval.

And the local businessmen in Pingjiang who wanted to bid also had the intention of showing Prince Ning's face, and came to the palace to congratulate him.Although King Ning married only a side concubine, she was the daughter of the local Confucian Jin Junzheng, and her mother's family was quite influential.At present, the palace is very lively, people from all walks of life are walking around inside and outside the courtyard, taking the opportunity to chat.

Although marrying a side concubine can't follow the standard of the princess's official wife, there are six salutes and three prostrations, but the prince attaches great importance to this marriage and has no intention of treating Miss Jin family badly at all.After the lively ceremony, the bride was sent to the bridal chamber, but King Ning drank for a while in front of everyone, then retreated.No one knew that King Ning, who was said by everyone to be in a hurry to meet his lovely wife, was standing in the study with a solemn expression on his face.

Sitting on the seat, Bei Gongdi flipped through the account book in his hand, and said with emotion: "Seventh brother, I have noticed your hard work these past few years. The business in Pingjiang is divided into categories and organized in an orderly manner. It is the first time since I came to Jiangnan. See the most clear."

King Ning hastily declined: "The emperor's reputation is too high! The ministers are just following orders, and the proper governance is due to the prefect of Pingjiang Prefecture."

Bei Gongdi knew that he was afraid of being accused of the inexplicable crime of "gathering people's hearts and plotting against others".As a minister, if you do too poorly, you will be scolded by your superiors for not doing your job well. If you do too well, you will be praised by the superiors and will be suspected by the superiors.

Thinking of imitating Pingjiang's business and taxation management everywhere, Bei Gongdi felt a little distressed.The only way to govern one side is to "adapt measures to local conditions", and if you blindly copy them, you can only draw tiger dogs.But because he moved his whole body, and the officials in Jiangnan were not easy to move, he couldn't cut off half of Jiangnan... How can we replace those greedy people with fresh blood?
