After I die, my wife becomes a tyrant

Chapter 38 "Fighting the Autumn Wind"?

"During the Tai|zu period of the Yue Kingdom, only the six states of Zhenhai and the seven states of Zhendong were under the rule. In order to prevent other countries from staring at each other, they respected Zhou as the upper state and sought asylum. Now, our Yue State has lost the benefits of Zhenhai, There are three states in Changzhou and Suzhou, but it already has 22 states.”

"After Wu State was conquered three times by Zhou State and was forced to cede the six states in Jiangbei, there are still 29 states under his rule, but they are no longer a threat to our Yue State."

"Qi State ruled seventeen prefectures, which no longer border our Yue State. If we want to go to Qi State, we must go to Tingzhou and cross Qianzhou of Han State to get there."

"The Han State is in the south of the Lingnan and the southeast peninsula, ruling the lower 49 states."

"After Zhou Guo regained the five Youyun states and the four states of Dongshu, he has 110 three states. Before the Northern Expedition again, he may go to Jiangnan or Lingnan."

"The four kingdoms of Wu, Yue, Qi, and Han combined together can equal the national flag of Zhou. It is a pity that the four southern kingdoms have been vigilant and conquered each other all the year round."

"The State of Zhou has set the ambition of 'expanding the world in ten years'. Our Yue State takes 'close relations and long-distance defense, protecting the environment and the people, and rejuvenating the country with business' as the national policy. There will be no tribute within ten years. What will happen in ten years will be ten years later. discuss."

In the second year of Guangxian, when Yuanzheng was on vacation for the first time, Ye Qiufeng rubbed his bruised wrist and reported the information he brought back from this trip.

"It's a good thing, Mr. Ye's trip back to the country has lightened a lot of the burden on our country. At least in the next ten years, our country can rest with the people more. If we are close friends and distant defenses, we can save some military expenses," Hu said. The minister felt that this was good news:

"What you don't know is that the common people are very worried after learning that there are so many annual tributes. They are afraid that one day the government will promulgate a new tax and rent decree, ordering various items to be levied on the basis of the head. This is seven hundred yuan per capita. , The average tax and rent per household is five shi, which is six hundred yuan when converted into money, and the pressure is not small."

"Even if the tax and rent have been exempted in the past three years, it is because after the disaster, the people need to recuperate, and there is no tax and rent to collect in the past three years. For the court and the central government, military rations and various expenses are still huge pressure. I can breathe a sigh of relief."

"Secondly, in the next ten years, we can travel lightly and rejuvenate the country rather than the army. There is no need to increase the number of soldiers." Zhang Mingzhong, the Minister of War, said.

"What about ten years later, subjugation?" Yin Rui's words were harsh.

This remark caused a collective silence. In the quiet, Yulu, who was listening to the courtiers discussing affairs, murmured to Ye Qiufeng:

"Father, I don't want to be a king of subjugation."

"Pfft," Ye Qiufeng chuckled:

"That's your mother."

"I don't want it either." Hua Muyu narrowed her eyes.

"Hahaha, not necessarily. If Zhou Guo can really expand the world in ten years, how come the Central Plains has not been unified in the past hundred years? Don't worry about it, and do the things right now." Zhang Mingzhong eased the atmosphere.

"My country of Yue has no natural dangers to defend, so I can only rely on military strength. The country of Wu can use the Yangtze River to prevent Zhou from going south. Let's play it by ear. If the country of Zhou conquests Wu four times... our country of Yue sends troops to help Wu? Phew, bad luck, but again My lips are dead and my teeth are cold, I can't just watch."

"If Zhou Guo conquered Wu four times and tried to bring the Yangtze River back to Yue, the rest will be for future generations." Ye Qiufeng said calmly, but the courtiers were secretly surprised.

"Scrambling the Yangtze River with Zhou Guo is tantamount to making an open enemy."

"Sending troops to aid Wu is also an open enemy."

"Or we won't aid Wu."

"Wu is gone, so are we."

The courtiers were chattering away, but Ye Qiufeng changed the subject and looked at Hua Muyu:

"My lord, the nine temples and the five supervisors are in some confusion due to natural disasters and disaster relief. Can you add a new city ship supervisor, directly under the jurisdiction of the city ship divisions in each state, and take charge of foreign business, such as ports, trading markets (commercial markets), etc. The establishment, trade matters, and the establishment of the State Supervision Department, etc., the Shi Ship Supervision is subject to the government orders of the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Officials cooperates with dispatching laborers, and all revenues go to Taifu Temple."

Hua Muyu stared at Ye Qiufeng with her chin in her hands, her eyes were meaningful, and the corners of her mouth curled up in a pampering arc. While nodding, she also winked at her with a smile:

"Ah."

Ye Qiufeng trembled from being shocked, almost let out a moan, covered his face and smiled shyly.

"Ahem, just leave without incident?"

The courtiers were inexplicably stuffed with dog food, and they stood up one after another, preparing to leave the inner hall.

After retreating, Ye Qiufeng led Yulu to the side hall.

"Yulu, do you want to go boating and fishing?"

"Okay!"

"Let's go, bring Yuzhen and Yuzhen together."

"What about me?" Hua Muyu's voice suddenly came from behind.

Ye Qiufeng turned around in doubt: "You don't...don't like boating?"

Hua Muyu laughed angrily: "Yeah, I don't like it."

"That's right, I'll take them out to play and come back after a few days."

Ye Qiufeng smiled at her, led the excited Yulu and left, Hua Muyu was dumbfounded——

I don't like boating, can't you take me to play other things?Just leave me alone?

She was full of anger, and walked straight to Jingcheng Palace with a dark face.

"My lord, there are more than 200 documents piled up, don't you just look at them?" Chang Shiguan asked after him.

"Continue to pile, wait for Ye Gong to come back and ask her to dispose of it."

……

"What are you doing by pulling my flowers? I've been raising the winter phoenix, exclusive spring and deciduous orchids for many years!"

In the garden of Jingcheng Palace, Ye Chen was picking up an open space for planting herbs. Ye Chen, who was drinking tea with his colleagues in the spring pavilion, saw his orchids being bullied when he turned his head. He hurriedly got up To block and not to confuse.

"What's the use of planting flowers, and some herbs can be sold for money."

"I am dignified and powerful, and I have ten thousand households. Even if I lie still, I have 500 million yuan in my pocket a year, and I am not short of money."

[500万钱=500两金(66斤黄金),购买力≈1320万元,一钱≈2.64元。]

"I planted herbs for your son's use. Your son's yang is weak and his soul is disabled. You can't do it without supplementing it."

"What kind of yang deficiency and soul remnant? Is it useful to eat herbs?"

As soon as Hua Muyu entered the room, she heard the two arguing, and immediately interjected when she heard sensitive words.

Don't be confused and turn to look at Hua Muyu:

"Didn't you notice that her body temperature is very low, it's always cold."

Hua Muyu nodded, and led Bujiao out of Jingcheng Palace:

"Set up another palace for you. Go there and plant it. If you need anything else, just tell me. By the way, if I fill up the head of the river, will it affect her?"

"What to do with filling it? It can't be filled. The Toupong River has been clouded for a long time, and it is very cloudy. It is better to build a temple. People light incense on weekdays, and it can also be used to protect passers-by from the wind and rain."

"okay."

To the west of Jingcheng Palace is a garden named Danbo Garden. Wangchun Tower stands on the north side. There is an arch bridge over a small lake. There are also several spring pavilions beside the lake, which are used for drinking and enjoying the scenery.

The scenery is not the point, the main thing is that it is only a few feet away from the Jingcheng Palace, and if there is another night, it will not be confusing if you can call it in time.

"Don't be confused, if you can't tell the future, can you tell the known past? I saw Qiufeng's wrist bruised, but she came back safe and sound."

"Just ask her if she doesn't mind, it's exhausting to make up my mind." After a refusal, Buyu opened his eyes with joy and watched the big garden that belonged to him.

"I didn't ask her, I forgot, I went to play by myself, and I didn't know to bring me, let alone how many days it would take to come back." Hua Muyu was furious.

Suddenly remembering the four words she said, Hua Muyu's stomach was full of anger, and it became sweet again.

"No doubt, can she and I... grow old together?"

Hearing the sound, Buyu paused for a moment before continuing to pull out the weeds with his bare hands.

"do not know."

"However, it depends on human effort. Some things have been changed, and what will happen in the future is even more uncertain."

"What changed?" Hua Muyu asked.

"do not know."

Hua Muyu was provoked into faint anger again, she turned around and left without asking any more questions.

……

Three young children at different heights, chirping and laughing, jumped onto the boat moored in Ninghai Bay.

The boat went east along Ninghai Bay until Juzhang, because there were too many merchant ships entering the bay, they had to berth and dock.

Seeing that it was his own tribute being "returned" one after another, Ye Qiufeng was so happy that he died.

Liang Nanling and Ying Wenjun were also on the shore, holding a book with doubts and seriousness to record it, and led the laborers to transport the tribute that had been laboriously loaded earlier to the warehouse department.

"I heard that it was my Yue Kingdom that gave up the gift to the Kingdom, so I returned it. I don't know if the Daling has returned. Why is it so scary?"

Everyone in the Central Plains knew that the Zhou State was powerful and angered the Zhou State. Even a Yue native would be frightened, for fear that if Zhou State disagreed, the army would overwhelm the border.

"Hey, Liangzi, why are you here? Why aren't you in the palace?"

Liang Nanling, who was chatting with Ying Wenjun, turned her head when she heard the sound, and saw that it was Ye Qiufeng, she couldn't help being stunned and then happy:

"Great order? Why is your life so hard? After being cut off, you can still come back alive?"

"Why, do you want to see my corpse brought back?"

Just when she was about to say something again, Liang Nanling saw that the young master and the two young masters had also left the palace, with only the wet nurse by her side. She hurriedly handed the book to others to continue recording, and pulled Ying Wenjun to whisper, Then he saluted Yulu.

"This trip is for fun, no courtesy," Yulu smiled, then looked around curiously, curious about everything:

"Father, besides boating, are there other fun things to do here?"

"Of course, fishing, grilling fish, fishing in the sea, Yanjitu, bamboo horses, windmills, whip spring cattle, sachets, rabbit masters, kites, playing with mud and sand..."

"Wow!" The three young children exclaimed in surprise.

"Young master, having a bonfire feast by the sea is much more fun than being in the palace. I'll go get ready. Let's go to the bathing place, we'll be there right away."

"Okay! Hurry up!"

Liang Nanling pulled Ying Wenjun up, nodded with a smile, and walked towards the county government to prepare ingredients, as well as Juzhang's unique light fruit wine, which tasted sweet and much better than water.

The nurse could hardly hold the three little things, they were chattering, but they were the ones pulling the nurse and telling the nurse to go faster, Ye Qiufeng walked ahead leading the way, dumbfounded.

In the warehouses of the supervisors, there are a lot of goods that can only be transported away after the return of the merchant ships or the arrival of the caravan carriages. Fruit wine and dried seafood are piled up inside. The two picked some Put it out in a cloth bag, and use it to entertain the young master and his party at a bonfire banquet.

"It feels weird, I can't call Da Ling anymore." Ying Wenjun murmured as he divided the fruit wine.

"What's so weird?"

"Da Ling is the father of the king, isn't it strange?"

"What's so strange about this is that before the courtiers pushed Di Xia to take the high position, but Di Xia refused, and you were not in the palace, so you didn't know the inside story. The emperor of the Shang Kingdom was only the adopted son of the former emperor, and the ruler of the Wu Kingdom also belonged to the former emperor. Adopted son, Qi is the same, the Central Plains has long stopped paying attention to orthodoxy, and pay more attention to strength, that's why Da Ling was afraid of him back then, and almost died, if Ye Shi had the heart, he could have done it 30 years ago... just didn't have the intention."

Ying Wenjun was a little surprised:

"Then tell me, what will happen if the Daling takes over the country's lord?"

"It should be pretty good. After being sent to the kingdom, you can come back alive. If it's not a skill, what is it?"

"Is it a good thing to break off...?"

"Give me seven hundred dollars."

"??? Why so much? No."

"If you continue to pay, everyone in my Yue country will have to pay [-] yuan. This is only one year, and the grain tax is not counted. The grain tax is a million stones. If you really give this much every year, my country will save grain. If there is a shortage, the price of food will skyrocket, which is no longer something that can be measured by money, and there is a possibility of famine.”

"That's right. Years ago, I believed that Daling's private business was really going to go bankrupt. Earlier, tens of thousands of workers had to grit their teeth to squeeze out their wages. This is the situation. I even borrowed money to buy rice to help Mingzhou, and A few big warehouses of linen, it hurts."

"The state treasury and local money and grain depots were all emptied by the Daling and the mansion. Otherwise, many people would freeze to death and starve to death this winter."

……

It’s rare for Yulu and the others to go out to play in the palace. The streets in Juzhang County are not that grand, but they are very lively. There are many novel gadgets that make their eyes straighten. They bought a lot along the way. After staying in bed, I sat on the bed and played with Yanjitu (jigsaw puzzle) or chessboard, and went to play near the state capital of Yuezhou for two days.

Tomorrow will be a regular court, and I have to go back to the palace before I set foot on the boat back to the palace.

Changing to a carriage at the Ninghai Bay Ferry, when passing the Toupeng River, the carriage suddenly slowed down.

Ye Qiufeng looked out suspiciously, only to see dozens of open-air flowing water mats by the Toupong River?A shrine popping up out of thin air next to the flowing water mat?

There is also a plaque of "Autumn Wind Temple" hanging in the temple?

???

"It's the autumn wind (eating and drinking), haha!" The people who came to eat and drink sat beside the flowing water mat, gorging on vegetables and drinking.

"Father, it's so lively, can you go down and join in the fun?" Yulu lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked around curiously.

Ye Qiufeng has a black thread——

I'm not dead yet, Gaizhen Qiufeng Temple?Still hit the autumn wind?

"This flowing water feast is made of fermented wine. You can't drink it because your throat is hot. After returning to the palace, Father will give you sweet fruit wine."

Ye Qiufeng was speechless, and tried his best to speak to Yulu nicely.

After returning to the palace, he ordered Lang Jiang and the wet nurse to bring the young masters back to the East Palace. Ye Qiufeng went straight to the inner hall, but he didn't see Hua Muyu, but there were more than a dozen piles of documents on the Zhu table?

"Ye Gong, you're back, let's deal with the matter quickly, it's almost too much to pile up." Chang Shiguan looked embarrassed.

"???"

"Where is the mansion?"

"His Majesty said that she has gone to plant flowers, and told you to go to Danbo Garden to find her after you have dealt with the matter."

"..."

Ye Qiufeng didn't go in, nor did he go out, the good mood of relaxing and playing for five days disappeared in an instant.

The matter is still, looking for her, Ye Qiufeng gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, turned around and went straight to Danbo Garden.

……

He has no personal wealth, no matter where he goes, he brings hard-earned seeds with him, Jingcheng Palace can't sow seeds, so he only planted some in clay pots.

After picking up the garden for two days and planting the seeds, the clay pots placed in the Jingcheng Palace were brought over one after another. Some of them had already bloomed, and Hua Muyu couldn't understand any of them.

"This is peacock grass. It is planted at the turn of winter and spring, and it will bloom in more than [-] days. After flowering and fruiting, it will die naturally, and then the seeds will be collected."

Do not hesitate to place several pots of pottery pots with orange-red buds on the edge of the garden.

"After flowering and fruiting, did they die?" Hua Muyu was surprised.

"Well, it can only live for a year at most, and it will die after it blooms and bears fruit," Buyou explained patiently, pointing to another pottery pot with half-purple and half-white buds:

"This one is called pansies, and it also lives for a maximum of one year before dying. Its function is to detoxify and moisten the blood. The red one is called zinnia, which can be supplemented with other herbs to warm and nourish the vitality of those whose yang energy is not strong."

"You know a lot." Hua Muyu couldn't help admiring.

When she turned around, Hua Muyu saw Ye Qiufeng walking quickly in the distance.

Teeth clenched immediately——

It took five days to come back, and in five days, the temples were all built.

Laughing angrily, Hua Muyu crunched her knuckles, but she didn't want to lose her temper directly, but first showed the light before the storm——

Liang style coquettish:

"Husband, you are back."

Ye Qiufeng in the distance had a complex expression on his face, and his expression froze immediately when he heard the sound, and then the spring spirit that floated from his heart slowly bloomed on his face, and at the same time with a smirk:

"Yes, I'm back."

Hua Muyu winked at her, hooked her fingers, and told her to follow behind the empty Wangchun Building. When someone stood in front of her, she raised her hand to wrap her neck, held her head up and asked with a smile:

"Did you have fun these five days?"

"Hey, happy."

Ye Qiufeng scanned the surroundings from the corner of his eye to confirm that there was no one there, then quietly raised his arms around her waist, stared at her alluring red lips, slowly lowered his head to stick them, and gently kissed her soft lips.

The hand that was already raised to pinch her ear was suspended in the air because of being kissed, his heartbeat was beating wildly, and he couldn't help but put his hand back around her neck.

Originally, he wanted to be superficial, but unexpectedly his neck was locked, so he could only continue to be intoxicated, licking his soft and tender tongue, and hugging his softer and softer body tightly.

"Madam, what is the meaning of the Temple of Autumn Wind? I am living well, how unlucky it is... and I also put up a water mat, asking the people to 'beat the autumn wind'."

Ye Qiufeng thought she was in a good mood, so he took the opportunity to ask a question boldly.

Hua Muyu's face was blushing and hot, and she was full of affection due to the hot kiss, and her whole body was numb and weak, but when she couldn't open any pot, she raised her hand and pinched her ear, and tried to twist it three times. She goes to the cella:

"Five days, you had a great time. You are happy, but I am not happy, so I am happy to build an autumn wind temple."

"One day you leave me alone and go out to have fun. I will build another [-] autumn wind temples, and fill the autumn wind temples by the Toupong River. Every day, I invite the villagers to 'beat the autumn wind'."

"I'll build another tomb for you, and ask the witch to dance on the tomb."

Ye Qiufeng felt that the back of his ear was really twisted open, and the pain was so painful that it was unbearable. With a "wow", he cried out in pain.

Hua Muyu panicked and let go, Ye Qiufeng squatted on the ground and continued to cry out of pain.

"Oh, don't cry, it's alright if I'm wrong." Hua Muyu was flustered and at a loss, hearing her cry made her feel distressed:

"Don't twist your ears anymore, okay, dear Qiufeng, don't cry."

Ye Qiufeng was still crying, his head was rubbed carelessly to comfort him, and it took him a while to realize——

Huh?

Crying, useful?

"Wow!"

[Building clothes and crowns for living people has the meaning of eliminating disasters and praying for blessings. ]

[Living people build clothes and crowns for themselves, which are called "seeds and foundations". One is said to eliminate disasters and turn bad luck into good luck; Absorb the energy of the dragon's lair, prolong life and increase blessings, and the merits obtained from worship can be returned to oneself. ]
