Time is the magic weapon to test everything. When winter comes again, Nanchang will be famous for its prosperity and prosperity.

The city wall has been repaired many times, and it is even taller and majestic; the wide main street with eight horse-drawn carriages parallels, how many people admire it in their hearts, even the Suzaku Street in the capital is incomparable; The figure of the people of the state, the road is a state of prosperity and prosperity.Jiangxi's commerce has been completely rejuvenated. In a year, it has brought tens of millions of taels of tax revenue.

Daughters of small households are selling camellias and plum blossoms with baskets on their shoulders. These are rare and bright colors after winter. When the people in the market are rich, they are willing to spend one or two copper coins to buy these "useless fancy things".

A sound of hoofbeats caught Xue Xun's mind. It was a bold lady from some unknown family, riding a tall horse, followed by a group of strong maids and maids, rushing past.

"It's getting lively after all." Xue Xun sighed.

"It's all adults who govern well." Wei Jiang flattered.There are not many people Xue Xun can trust, and the old people such as Jin Beast have already scattered all over the place, and the worst is the county magistrate.Wei Jiang came over as a follower, and it was rare for Xue Xun to look favorably on him, so he stayed in Nanchang as the magistrate.

"Brother Wei said, how many people envy our Nanchang under your lord's governance." Zhang Yu laughed.

"Without a sycamore tree, it's hard to attract a golden phoenix. Why don't you attract your cousin today?" Xue Xun joked.

Zhang Yu was the unlucky ghost who was pushed under the city of Hangzhou to open the city gate. Wang Shu could not become an official, but it was Wang Yun who took over.

"The last general is the defender of Nanchang, and he dare not gossip about his relatives." Zhang Yu said solemnly, it was bad enough to be tripped up by relatives once, and he didn't want to do it again.

"Okay, let's go, Mr. Wang should be here."

Xue Xun led the way back to the chief envoy's yamen, and Wang Yun had already arrived.Nanchang was prosperous at this time, but Xue Xun could not give birth to any pride and complacency.He thought that he would occupy the banks of the Yangtze River in a short period of time, gather the two lakes and two provinces, and he would realize the purpose of sending Qi Wei to Nanchang to station at the beginning.In fact, no one is a fool.Xue Xun has ambitions, are the local magistrates stupid?Xue Xun has worked so hard for so long, but his influence is still concentrated in Jiangxi, and the territory is still as large as before. What is gratifying is that the people of Jiangxi are gradually returning to their hearts, especially after the distribution of land and the liberation of women as labor.This year's autumn harvest, the people found that the tax rate was as low as promised at the beginning, let go of the last worries, and took root in Jiangxi with peace of mind.

Not only are the local officials not stupid, but the central officials are even more treacherous and cunning. They give the localities more autonomy and try to provoke a balance. The localities still respect the central government.After Shanzuo entered Beijing, he hurried to the northwest border to block the invasion of the Western barbarians; after the southern naval battle, the imperial court recuperated, and the people began to show strong resilience and quickly recovered; It was as smooth as if there had never been any waves.Large-scale suppression of bandits began in various places. Several uprising teams that played the banner of rebellion last year were wiped out. Similar to the Little White Dragon King, they were not wiped out by the central army, but were incorporated by local forces.The world that was once crumbling and about to fall apart has stood up steadily again.

Xue Xun lamented that he was still too immature, and when he was praised by his subordinates with a few words, he thought that he was shocked and ruled the world.In the current situation, Xue Xun had no idea how the imperial court would deal with them. No, when Wang Yun came to visit, he went down the ladder, regardless of their previous life and death enmity in Guazhou, and regardless of how they would be beaten into rotten sheep for the Yangtze River water transport. head.

"Oh, Mr. Xue, you're here, let me wait for a long time." As soon as Xue Xun entered the door, Wang Yun hurried up to greet him.

Xue Xun's eyes were shining, and he said gently and modestly: "Don't dare to be a gift from Lord Wang, don't dare to be."

The two held hands and looked at each other, telling each other their hearts, one more humble than the other.

"Why are the two brothers being so polite? We are both our own people." Wang Shunu joked with a smile. He knew both of them, and the relationship was not too bad. It would be best for him to be the lubricant.

"Brother Wang is right, Xue called me old brother bluntly."

"Brother Xue Xian is polite, it's good to be so affectionate." Wang Yun replied with a smile on his eyes.

Xue Xun led Wang Yun all the way into the living room, where the guests and the host were seated. Wang Yun couldn't wait to say: "Only Nanchang has recovered so quickly along the way. The people are clean and neat, and the women wear exquisite jewelry. The old man is also kind and amiable. When he walked into the square, there was the sound of reading aloud. It looks like a prosperous age! I just saw countless businessmen coming and going in the city. The carriage is also unimpeded. Just this small matter, you know that Xue Xiandi is in charge."

"Brother Wang is too famous. It's all about the officials' heart, the soldiers' lives, and the common people's self-improvement. They dare not take credit for it." Xue Xun is also very handy when speaking routines, and the routines come out of his mouth.

"Hey, Brother Xue Xian must have thought that I was speaking in vain and praised me, but he didn't know that it was from my heart. I still remember that Brother Xue Xian gave me a trick last year, how to increase the tax in Guazhou. What Brother Xue did in Nanchang was exactly the same as the tip he gave me back then, except that I I have little experience and no courage to implement it, but now I see Jiangxi’s prosperity, so I know I missed it." Wang Yun stood up and bowed, and said: "At the beginning, I was the one who blamed Brother Xue Xian, so I should pay for Brother Xue..."

Xue Xun supported him, and said: "Please, please, hurry up, why is it so strange, Brother Wang, I intended to show off at the beginning, but it was just a rough model, there is no real product, no wonder Brother Wang!"

Wang Yun's tiger eyes were filled with tears, and he said, "Xue Xiandi still refuses to forgive me?"

Xue Xun got goosebumps when he was looked at, and he thought that Wang Yun was bewitched by something, the son of a good princess, how reserved and noble, how could he be more shameless than him now.

"Brother Wang has never blamed me for saying such a thing." Seeing that Wang Yun was bowing and unable to get up, Xue Xun compromised and said, "Forgive Brother Wang, forgive me..."

"Okay! This is a good brother. Now it's time for us to join forces and work together. Manly man, don't take it to heart if you talk about it." Wang Shunu patted the two of them on the shoulder in a rude and heroic gesture. .

Although he knew it was an act, Xue Xun was still quite emotional. Wang Yun had tears in his eyes, and he couldn't help but join the play, unable to cry, so he could only sigh and said with emotion: "Brothers who have crossed the Jiebo are here, we meet again Smile away all grievances. It is rare for the two king brothers to be broad-minded, please take a seat, let me set up a banquet, and clean up the dust for the two of you at night."

Wang Yun and Wang Shunu nodded in agreement and thanked them again and again.Wang Yun recalled the phrase "meeting and laughing away all kindness and enmity" in his heart, and lamented that he really shouldn't look at people with prejudice. Xue Xun is not only good at business affairs, but also has a good way of governing the local area. Now it seems that his poetic attainments are also good.At the beginning, the matter in Guazhou had been sorted out, and both sides had concealed things from each other, but in the end it was Xue Xun who came out on top.Xue Xun won and won with grace, and finally told him the countermeasures of reducing taxes, improving facilities, and serving merchants, but he didn't believe it.Seeing the grand occasion in Jiangxi now, I realize that Xue Xun didn't lie to himself.

If Xue Xun knew that Wang Yun thought this way, he would probably sigh that a gentleman is still a gentleman. He has been honed by this messy world for so long, and he still believes that there is such a creature as a "gentleman".Xue Xun gave a solution at the beginning, but he didn't give specific measures. He also admitted that he had bad intentions.What's more, what Xue Xun can do does not mean that Wang Yun can do it. The Xue family's business bases are all over the place, especially in the southern market.There is also Xue Xun, a "far-sighted" great inventor. Although he is only a theoretical giant, the wisdom of the world cannot be underestimated. Xue Xun ordered a little bit, and the following people presented amazing results one after another.

"There's news from Beijing that His Majesty has retired to His Highness the Ninth Prince. The Ministry of Rituals is already preparing for the grand ceremony. I wonder if the local officials will be called in for a pilgrimage." Wang Shunu spoke first.

"It was His Majesty who summoned him, but he couldn't summon Xue Mou. Xue Mou is not an official appointed by the court, but an extraordinary act at an extraordinary time." Xue Xun said roguely.The reason why he said that the ancients were not fools is that His Highness the Ninth Prince is the proof.The reason why this world can still stick together is thanks to His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince's efforts to turn the tide.He is the real overlord. He returned to the capital with the military achievements accumulated in the northwest, and immediately took over the defense of the capital.Who would have thought that the Ninth Prince who was "distributed to the frontier" would be the winner who had the last laugh?

"Brother Xue is really funny." Wang Yun curled his lips lightly, and said: "Your Majesty's holy candle shines, there should be amnesty after the enthronement ceremony."

I don't know if this His Majesty is referring to the Supreme Emperor or the new emperor who is about to ascend the throne.The Emperor Taishang was even more old-hearted, afraid that he would become the king of subjugation, and if he caught someone who could barely watch, he would entrust the country to him.The Ninth Prince has the strength to catch this hot potato, peeling and cramping, slowly assimilating the forces behind the capital.Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, and Shandong have already bowed their heads and once again handed over the power in their hands to the emperor.The once famous White Dragon Sect also disappeared, and the capital was once again impregnable.

No wonder the history books show that Jun is even more terrifying. I didn't understand it before, but now there is a hero, and now the power of the world has fallen into a wait-and-see attitude again.Xue Xun also thought about destroying the feudal forces and liberating productive forces.The news of the Ninth Prince's ascension to the throne came out, and the "cautious" wealthy families began to keep their daughters in the house again. Now Xue Xun advocates that women should grant land and own property. I don't know what the emperor's regulations will be in the future. These wealthy families don't want to follow Wrong wind direction.

"The amnesty does not forgive the ten heinous crimes. Even if it can be forgiven, it is also for this generation." Xue Xun said coldly.

"Yes, although I am an official of the court, when the war is raging, there are several government orders that I have not received. Although my cousin has resigned, he is still helping me in the Yamen. As Xue Xiandi said, it is an extraordinary time. But the Sacred Heart is unpredictable, and it is a crime to say it." Wang Yun smiled wryly.At that time, the Daqing court was about to end. No matter how loyal and patriotic Wang Yun was, and no matter how bloody his clan was, he was not a royal. Naturally, he did some things that would not be tolerated by the emperor outside. When the emperor gained a firm foothold, he would definitely be punished .His situation is not much better than Xue Xun's, which is also the prerequisite for them to sit together and talk today.

"Yes, I wonder what the two brothers have to say?" Xue Xun asked tentatively.
