Chapter 297 The Pure Land Is Not Quiet
Chapter 297 The Pure Land is Not Quiet
"The emperor named you the Marquis of Virtue, and you will not let down the word "magnanimity". He drove Tatars in the north and made such a fierce general in Boyan and Huo Sieve escape; he steadied the Japanese pirates in the east and helped them to suffrage them, and they would be pacified for a hundred years. He surrendered to Xifan in the south and recovered Malacca, and the countries of the foreign countries were intimidated, very good, very good!"
A smile appeared on the face of the King of Shu, as if he was very appreciating Yang Ling's martial arts. He nodded repeatedly while saying this. Seeing this, the civil and military officials next to him would slap again to welcome him. A buzzing sound suddenly sounded in the quiet hall, as if a group of flies were lingering.
Yang Ling didn't care and smiled faintly: "Thank you for your praise. This is all the soldiers who use their lives, the government and the country are united, and the emperor is wise. When I borrowed troops, the Sichuan army was brave and good at fighting, and he also made great contributions when clearing out Japanese pirates. The prince is the lord of Bashu, and I want to thank the prince."
While bowing to thank him, Yang Ling secretly complained: "Today I came to see how the King of Shu reacted to the news I deliberately revealed. This is great. He was as if nothing had happened. He didn't mention the matter of Bashu. He talked about the world with me. Today, he was all told here.
Xu Yan is polite, you praise me, I praise you, what's the point of talking to him? Although Yun'er and Adni are not around, it's better to sit here even if they watch Xiao Wu and Xiao Ai chat and spank! I still can't hold back. If he comes to Chengdu and stays in a closed door, he may not be able to figure out my details, but he will be anxious. Could it be that I came to visit him as soon as I arrived in Chengdu, and I was too urgent to see that I had no trump card in my heart?"
Yang Ling was thinking secretly, and the King of Shu had already reiterated: "Majesty Weiwu is not only an outstanding general in the Ming Dynasty, but also seems to have no experience in civil affairs. The Lord King heard that you are promoting and introducing Western crops to the Provincial Administration and the Provincial Administration and the Commission?"
Yang Ling saw that his face was blue, white and dark, and he seemed listless, but he seemed to be very concerned about it. He hurriedly said: "Yes, these crops were successfully tested in Shaanxi, Hunan and the capital. These crops are drought-resistant and insect-resistant, and can be planted everywhere, not occupying fertile land, and by extension, they will be of great benefit to farming."
The King of Shu smiled and said, "This Lone King has heard of it. Shaanxi has a severe drought this year, but these crops have achieved excellent harvests. Shu is mountainous. Some places are not suitable for farming and the people live in poverty. The Lone King has sent the housekeeper of the royal palace to Shaanxi to purchase grain and hire a master who knows how to cultivate. Next year, Bashu will also plant widely on barren land and Shaling land."
Yang Ling said happily when he heard this: "The prince is far-sighted, and I admire him. When I came to Sichuan this time, I also brought condiments such as peppers, tomatoes and vegetable seeds. I gave them to Lord An yesterday. I believe that once these things are harvested, they will be welcomed by the people of Bashu."
He was very sure of this. As the saying goes, Sichuan people are not afraid of spicy food, Hunan people are not afraid of spicy food, Guizhou people are not afraid of spicy food. It seems that chili peppers are either suitable for planting in these places or the tastes of people in these areas. Therefore, once they were introduced to China, they were developed in these areas.
An Wentao also said happily: "His Royal Highness of Shu is the most important farming. Nanjing Ministry of Revenue cannot allocate silver, so the prince took out a large amount of silver from the royal family income to build water conservancy and encouraged farming. As for building bridges and roads, he spared no effort to start a civil school. Now Bashu cultivates land at 100,000 hectares, and the annual output of salt wells is 30 million jin, which is three times that of the beginning of the founding of the country. Now Shu people are self-sufficient and comfortable, and no longer have to buy salt salt at high prices (salt in Shanxi). The Shu royal palace is of great contribution."
Yang Ling knew a little about the situation in Sichuan, and knew that Sichuan's silver, iron, tea and porcelain production were also very rich, and the reputation of Shu brocade was not inferior to that of Su embroidery. These were naturally not all the achievements of the Shu king, nor were they the achievements of the Shu king in contemporary times. However, Shu kings as the supreme rulers of Bashu have always enjoyed transcendent power. Without them, they would not have developed so quickly. They couldn't help but nod.
"Oh, this is not my contribution. I only adhere to the legacy of the previous kings of all dynasties. I attach importance to farming and treat the people well. The specific things are still done by the officials and people in Shu. Haha, I am neither perfect nor versatile. How can I do so many things? I cannot take credit for it randomly."
An Wentao said solemnly, but his face was very relaxed with a smile on his face. Obviously, he regarded this as the politeness of the King of Shu and did not take it too seriously. The King of Shu looked at Yang Ling deeply and said, "The Marquis of Weiwu is both a member of the army and a good civil affairs. He was also a attendant of the prince. Such a talent is considered a civil and military genius."
Yang Ling hurriedly bowed and said, "The prince is too proud, but I don't dare to be the one, I really don't dare to be the one."
The King of Shu smiled and said, "The Marquis of Weiwu is in the country and is obvious to all, so there is no need to be too humble. However... I have a choked word in my heart, but I really don't say it. It's rare to see Marquis of Weiwu today. The King of Gu wants to persuade him with kind words as an elder. Will Weiwu obey?"
Yang Ling was stunned and hurriedly said, "Prince, please speak, Yang Ling listened attentively."
The King of Shu frowned slightly and said, "The Marquis of Weiwu drove out the four barbarians with force, caring for the development of farming, making great achievements in military affairs, and outstanding political achievements. The King of Own appreciated it very much. However........ The Marquis is too young and he can't help but be eager for quick success and instant benefits when doing things. Some things affect the overall situation at once, so he should be very cautious, but the Marquis... is a little lacking in thinking."
As soon as these words were said, the hall suddenly became silent and the atmosphere began to become tense. The King of Shu was the son-in-law, the highest leader of Bashu, and the prestige was the most wise king in the world. It was not rude to scold any first- and second-rank minister at will, and no one would dare to contradict him.
But who is Yang Ling? Although he did not come to visit the King of Shu under the banner of imperial envoy, he was a real imperial envoy. The crown prince served as a minister and had the merit of supporting him; the emperor was close to him and fought against powerful enemies in Datong; the deputy marshal of the four armed forces outside the capital, and the commander who fished for three days and two days was Emperor Zhengde himself.
Looking at the present day, except for Liu Jin, the Prime Minister of the Inner Court, which minister in the court is not short of him when he sees him? Such a person who is above ten thousand people is not as good as the King of Shu, but his place is far and wide and close to the emperor is much closer than your uncle who has not dealt with the emperor directly in more than a hundred years.
An Wentao had even prepared the draft of the memorial and publicity to the market: today the sun was shining and cloudless. His Highness Zhu Binhan, the King of Shu, cordially met with the imperial envoy, the Marquis of Weiwu, and the General Yang Ling, the Dragon and Tiger General of the Zhu Kingdom, in Qingyang Palace.
The meeting took place in a peaceful, warm and friendly atmosphere. With the aim of mutual understanding and seeking common ground while reserving differences, the host and the host exchanged exchanges on issues such as military situation and agricultural development. That night, His Highness Zhu Binhan held a dinner at Douluo Palace to entertain the imperial envoy. The banquet was filled with...
Originally, the two of them praised each other for being funny, so it was good to chat. What happened to the King of Shu? The officials looked at each other and did not dare to speak more. Li Sen's shrewd eyes flashed, and then he regained his reckless and rough expression and sat there stupidly.
The governor An Wentao was panicked and hurried to see Zhu Rangjin. Zhu Rangjin was also confused: Isn’t my father afraid that Yang Ling would cause trouble in Sichuan? Today’s meeting was originally a polite visit. Isn’t it over to send him away with enough face? The father played the role?
In fact, the King of Shu really had no intention of making things difficult for Yang Ling. Yang Ling vigorously promoted farming, which was deeply appreciated by the King of Shu, who always adhered to the concept that people regard food as the most and farming as the foundation of the world. At the same time, he also admired Yang Ling's achievements in promoting the power of the Ming Dynasty and subduing the four barbarians by force.
However, due to Yangling's reasons, Geng Zhong, the old ministers who were highly praised by Liu Jian and Xie Qian, were expelled from the court one by one, which greatly reduced Zhu Binhan's good impression of Yang Ling. In addition, some of the policies advocated by Yang Ling, the King of Shu also felt that this person was too radical and believed that although he was talented, he was frivolous and fond of merit. In ancient times, there were not many talented people in this area, but most of them were like comets and eventually eliminated from the political stage.
Seeing Yang Ling humble and polite today, the King of Shu changed his impression of him. He was once aware of love and talent. He was so called "deep and hatred" that he changed his original intention and wanted to give Yang Ling some advice.
Yang Ling was also a little surprised. This was the King of Shu who accused him of his own policies for being wrong. The King of Shu was always famous. Seeing that he had indeed made some achievements in governing Shu, was he really making mistakes in his political views? Yang Ling hurriedly bowed and said, "Please give me advice, are you referring to...?"
The King of Shu took Zhu Rangjin and handed the tea, took a sip and handed it back. He waved his hand gently and said, "For example, you propose to open a tea-horse market in the north to ease the conflicts with the three guards of Duoyan and the Jurchens, and to control the Tatar tribes, kill two birds with one stone. The King of Lonely admired it very much.
However, the sea is lifted and the traffic is transported to all countries. The lonely king feels that the land is not appropriate. I heard that you also suggested changing the Hongwu Dynasty’s military farming system to the recruitment system. This... this is simply a sensational and purely a play."
The hall was silent for a moment, and everyone was quietly watching Yang Ling's reaction. This young Zhengde Dynasty's most powerful minister used thunder to destroy the inner court and the Dongchang, and forced Liu Jian and Xie Qian away both soft and soft. In the face of the accusations of the King of Shu, should he be furious or temporarily endure it?
Unexpectedly, Yang Ling actually smiled, with a helpless smile. He sighed softly and asked helplessly: "So what do the prince thinks about the low combat power of the Ming army and the increasingly difficult finances?"
In the forest of the back garden of Qingyang Palace, a strong figure flashed in, and quietly covered the residence of the King of Shu using the protection of the short trees and flowers. The Chengdu city under the rule of Shu has always been safe, and the guards in charge of the guards will inevitably relax over time. Today, the imperial envoy visited and the guards doubled, which made the guards even worse.
There was no need to find out the residence of the King of Shu. The hall was surrounded by the most policemen, with guns and swords in front and back. It was obvious that the King of Shu lived in this Taoist temple. The guards in the Qingyang Palace were ordinary, so it was difficult to find that the man dodged and approached quietly, but there were no trees to cover around the hall, so the man could not get close.
The man was covered with a green scarf, only a pair of shiny eyes were exposed, and he looked around carefully. This man was Li Dayi, the second young master of the Maitreya Sect. He sneaked in today just to observe and see if there was an opportunity to take advantage of it. At the same time, he also knew more about Yang Ling so that he could know what was going on.
With so many officers and soldiers, even if they didn’t have the first-class masters they met in the bamboo forest that day, no matter how good his personal martial arts were, he could not enter. So when he saw this posture, Li Dayi gave up the idea of assassination. He shrank to the smallest and fled into a bush with white flowers. As long as he squatted inside and did not move, even if the guards passed by the flowers, it would be difficult to find the figures of lush branches and leaves hidden under the ground.
In the hall, the King of Shu was excited, and a layer of sick red tide floated on his pale cheeks. He sighed and said, "Therefore, the Lord King thought that the country and the country were vast and wealthy. As long as we value agriculture and suppress commerce, we could be self-sufficient. Why do we need to interact with the barbarians? The barbarians did not seek the right path, did not follow the king's way, and were curious and skillful. The frivolous and extravagant trend in the south of the Yangtze River was already prosperous, and this would inevitably become more severe. The people's customs were evil. There would be chaos."
Zhu Binhan sighed and said leisurely: "If the people were allowed to live in a house, farm and farm with a farm, and hear the sound of chickens and dogs. What a clear world would it be? If you advocate the promotion of business, wouldn't you know that there are no businessmen or evil people, and there are many merchants, which will inevitably corrupt people's hearts. The desire for profit will lead to more fraud among the people. If merchants are prosperous, they will harm the country and the government will be disrupted. What other benefits will there be?"
An Wentao, Lu Zheng and other officials nodded repeatedly, thinking it was right. Li Sen rolled his eyes. He came from Shandong, and although he was much poorer than Bashu, he connected to Liaodong in the north, to the capital in the west, to the sea in the east, and to Jiangsu in the south. Relatively speaking, the information was developed and the people had different insights. He was a little dissatisfied with the idea of being detained in a corner and being self-contained.
The King of Shu said in a daze: "You said that you can transfer all countries and import gold and silver as capital. Those things of gold and iron cannot be worn or eaten. Even if they are piled up like mountains, how can the granaries be full? The granaries are full and the people are at peace, and then the people are at peace and then they are polite and know etiquette and honor and disgrace. There are fifteen chieftains in Bashu. There are no currency in their tribes as a basis for trading. They use goods as a barter and are real, so the people are simple and have few frauds. Isn't that good?"
Yang Ling Ran: This prince's thinking is still at the level of a tribal jungle chief in ancient times. How can he explain it to him clearly?
Seeing Yang Ling silent, the King of Shu thought he was speechless, he continued to say: "How wise is this to be a military service in the garrison of Emperor Hongwu to raise millions of soldiers without spending a penny of the court? Each family undertakes physical tax service, just like everyone picking up firewood, but if you have the need, it will be done instantly. Look at the construction of Nanjing City in the past, when Taizu issued an order, the whole country burned bricks and tiles to transport the capital, and worked together to do something wrong? You recruited troops, promoted businessmen, and changed physical tax to silver tax, cough cough..................."
Seeing this, Zhu Rangjin hurriedly stepped forward and patted his father's back, and advised softly: "Don't calm down, calm down, your health is important." As he said that, he glanced at Yang Ling helplessly, with a helpless bitter smile on his lips.
The idea of the King of Shu was somewhat similar to that of Zhu Yuanzhang at the time. He insisted on retroism, hoping to limit the people to the land, have enough food and clothing, be content with the status quo, and do not communicate with the barbarians. The country is always calm like a pool of well water. This is not realistic at all, and Zhu Rangjin dared not agree with this. However, his son did not say that his father was wrong. Although Zhu Rangjin did not agree, he did not dare to express it and sang opposite to his father.
Yang Ling also smiled bitterly at him. He wanted to observe his expression and detect the reaction of the King of Shu to his purpose, but unexpectedly, the civil and military officials in Shu were questioned by the King of Shu’s policies against him.
He kicked away one by one, but from the reaction and understanding of the King of Shu, it can be seen that the officials who are in absent and self-proclaimed in the local area are actually flooded with scum, and there are countless, and many of them have the names of wise kings and honest officials.
It seems that the policy of changing Jiangnan first and gradually soaking inland is correct. It must be carried out gently and gradually changed without realizing it. Let the open and wealthy areas change first. If you want to hesitate and do a one-size-fits-all approach, you will eventually be counterattacked by the forces of the whole country and cut off your own heads with one-size-fits-all approach.
The task is heavy and the road is long! The King of Shu is just a big landlord who holds his old ideas and remains unyielding. The largest landlord in Shu is a representative of the conservative and conservative landlord class.
Yang Ling shook his head and sighed: "Prince, I'll raise soldiers, farm and soldiers, farm and eat by themselves? What kind of millions of soldiers are raised? Over the past hundred years, the millions of lions of the past have become one million farmers. The combat effectiveness of the military officers in the garrison is becoming increasingly low, which is obvious to all.
This time, if the Japanese were pacified in Jiangnan, if they had not led mediocre soldiers with their elite soldiers, and had cool legal systems, and had strong people's style and good combat, they would go to Jiangnan, and the Japanese pirates had no support from the people in our Ming Dynasty, and their retreat was cut off by the Japanese Kingdom. I don't know when the year they would be able to fight.
What the marquis is worried about is that the military soldiers of the garrison are unwilling to join the army, so deserters often appear. After so many years of military farming, most of them are occupied by officers and wealthy people. The military farming system is in name only. If the border army is not imitated at this time, the method of recruiting troops will be implemented as soon as possible. Such military morale will still be vulnerable if there is any war in the future."
When he saw the King of Shu was about to speak, he rushed to say, "Also, using the current silver to discount taxes and labor service, completely abandoning physical taxes and the labor service of each family to bear, can liberate the craftsmen, liberate the restriction of land on farmers, and provide convenience for commerce and workshops. The prince relished the grand occasion that the whole country responded to whenever he did something in the past. Thinking about the place was a lively scene, people were excited."
"But......" Yang Ling smiled bitterly: "Every village digs kilns and supports furnaces, burns bricks and tiles to Nanjing. How much does this repetitive cost? How much does the transportation capital cost? Even if only one tenth of the cost is spent. Is it faster and more cost-effective to build several large brick-burning workshops near Nanjing City?"
When the King of Shu heard this, he was stunned. He paused and said angrily: "You are eager for quick success and instant benefits. For the sake of temporary gains, it ruined the fundamentals of the court, making the people seek profits, and people's hearts are uneven. Sooner or later, I will cause a big trouble! Forget it, I see that you are a plastic material, so I advise you kindly, but you are obsessed with it. I cannot do anything about the great affairs of the court. But as long as I am alive for one day, the land of Bashu will not be allowed to do anything. I cannot let you destroy this paradise and a pure land!"
As soon as the word "Pure Land" of King Shu was revealed, someone shouted outside: "There are assassins, assassins! Be careful and protect the prince!"
Then, the armor sounded loudly and more than a dozen armored warriors rushed in. Seeing that the hall was as quiet as usual, they felt relieved and led the team of warriors and shouted: "Protect the hall door and window lattice. Anyone dared not to summon to break in, and kill him without any mercy!"
After saying that, he walked to the King of Shu and knelt down on one knee, saying respectfully: "Prince, there was a sudden commotion in the Huangji Hall area of Doumu Palace. The reason is unknown. The last general has surrounded the Qingxin Pavilion, so he sent someone to investigate and investigate."
Chengdu City has always been peaceful, and the King of Shu is deeply loved by the people. When he was healthy, he occasionally wore a commoner and robe, walking in the market to enjoy the people. No one has ever tried to assassinate this local vassal lord. However, today, in front of the Beijing Office, an assassin caused a stir, which inevitably gave people the feeling of uneasiness in Shu.
The King of Shu couldn't hold back his face and shouted unhesitantly: "I'm fussing, what kind of assassin is called for for unknown reasons? Go and find out and report it quickly."
As he was speaking, a voice of a guard talking came from the gate of the hall, and someone shouted, "Don't be shocked, it's purely a misunderstanding. The leaping on the ridge of the hall was not an assassin. I heard that it was the commander of the guards of the imperial envoy or the commander of the cavalry."
The King of Shu just described the rule of Sichuan as a paradise. He praised it like a flower and made a big mistake. Yang Ling was watching the fun with a smile. When he heard this, he couldn't sit still. The Caval Commander? That's not Wu Hanchao!
He quickly got up and said with awkward expression: "Prince, this person... This person seems to be a subordinate of this marquis. I will go and see it clearly. I have disturbed the prince. Please forgive me!"
When the King of Shu heard this, he let out a long sigh. He snorted heavily, without saying a word. Yang Ling bowed awkwardly and hurriedly ran out. The governor An Wentao also bowed quickly and said, "Your Majesty has a rest, so the lord will go and have a look."
Li Dayi was hidden under the bushes and suddenly saw Yang Ling appearing through the gaps of the leaves. Subconsciously touched the flying knife on his waist. Yang Ling's guards and some middle and low-level accompanying officials were all outside the penalty area of Doumu Palace. As soon as the imperial envoy entered the back garden, his defense was handed over to the guards of the King of Shu to take over.
At this time, Yang Ling moved forward, and immediately more than a dozen armored warriors followed each other tightly, crowding them, holding him in the middle. Moreover, Li Dayi's hiding place was about twenty feet away from Yang Ling. If he really wanted to assassinate him, he had to rush out. Within seven or eight feet, the flying knife that hit every shot was effective. Yang Ling had already gone far away. Li Dayi sighed lightly and hid again.
Yang Ling rushed to the back of the Huangji Palace with his men. A team of swords were unsheathed, and the guards were waiting for the strings of the arrows. The archers all set their bows and arrows and pointed at the top of the palace. Although they already knew that the person who suddenly appeared on the top of the palace was an imperial guard, not an assassin, and they still did not dare to be careless at all. As long as Wu Hanchao jumped into the back garden without the order of the king, he would still be unpolite and shoot to the ground immediately.
Yang Ling hurriedly asked, "Where is the man? Where is that cavalry captain?"
A lieutenant hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Report to the imperial envoy, I'm heading towards Doumu Palace and Yunshuitang."
Yang Ling didn't know the path and hurriedly asked the man to lead the way. He rushed over in a panic. When he was walking around the Yunshui Hall, two guards were looking forward with their feet crossed. One of them smiled and said, "Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk
"Yes...Oh, I have seen the imperial envoy under the mark!" Another responded, and suddenly saw Yang Ling coming, the python robe and jade belt was very conspicuous in the sun. He had been stationed here and had never seen Yang Ling. But today, except for the King of Shu, there was only one person in Qingyang Palace who dared to wear the python robe. He naturally knew that the imperial envoy from the court had arrived, so he quickly pulled the brother and greeted him in official language.
Yang Ling waved his hand and rushed over. When he arrived at Yunshui Hall, he saw that there were many people surrounded here. Most of them were not qualified to accompany the officials who met the King of Shu, as well as Taoist priests and some guards from Qingyang Palace.
Yang Ling saw Wu Hanchao standing on the roof and bowing to the bottom. His expression was ridiculous. There were too many people below, but he couldn't see who he was worshiping. Yang Ling couldn't help but burst into thunder and shouted: "What's wrong? I'm the official who met His Highness, the King of Shu. Are you here to cause trouble?"
The crowd turned around and saw that the imperial envoy was looking blue, and he was shocked. With a huh, the crowd dodged left and right, and there was a civil servant wearing a green official robe standing in the middle. He had a long beard like an actor singing a Peking opera. He was thick and long, and he was holding a knife in his hand, and he still pointed at the roof like a thunderous cry and cursed: "Beasts, little animals, are really angry and are so angry that they are not going to get out for me."
Wu Hanchao stood on the green tiles on the roof and said with a bitter face: "Father, you are angry, and the child dare not go down. If you slash me with one knife, our Wu family will be out of the way."
The bearded man became more and more angry as he heard it. He cursed: "I will have another one after the failure. It's better than if you do anything so unreasonable and insult the family."
Yang Ling looked like two-year-old King Kong, and was still confused for a moment. When she saw Song Xiaoai coming over with a grievance, she said with tears in her eyes: "Sir, I want to go back to Guangxi, I don't want to come to Sichuan."
Yang Ling rolled his eyes and thought to himself, "Do you think this is a child playing house? When you go back to Guangxi, when the wolf soldiers leave, I become the commander of the bare hands."
He said helplessly: "What's wrong? You can let me know."
Wu Hanchao also saw Yang Ling on the roof. When he saw that his backbone had arrived, he was overjoyed and stood on the roof and cheered: "I have met you, sir, help me."
Wu Wending has a hot temper, and he can get it at a glance. When the anger comes, he is not afraid of the earth or the earth, and has no scruples. Otherwise, when he was a small sixth-rank official, he would not dare to be like a person like Duke Xu.
At this time, his anger had disappeared a lot. Seeing that even the imperial envoy was alarmed, he was also shocked. He hurriedly stepped forward to greet him and said with an ugly expression: "Wu Wending, the emperor of Chengdu, paid homage to the imperial envoy, and disturbed him. The emperor deserves to die!"
Only then did Yang Ling realize that the civil servant in front of him was Wu Hanchao's father. He quickly smiled and gave a few polite words.
Looking at the situation at the scene, he also figured out a little bit. Yang Ling raised his hands behind his back and looked at Wu Wending who was suppressed by anger, Song Xiaoai, who was angry, looked at Wu Hanchao who was scratching his head on the roof, and shook his head with a wry smile and said, "When you enter the room and talk, don't stand here to make people laugh."
Yang Ling was about to enter Yunshui Hall first, and Song Xiaoai paused to the roof with a crying voice and shouted: "You! You are so useless, why don't you get out?"
Wu Wending pulled his long beard and glared at Song Xiaoai: "It turns out that there is a barbarian who lacks family education. Is my son promising? I haven't said I'm not satisfied yet. Do you want you to talk too much? You dare to say "get out" to my son..."
"Huh? I really got out. I told him to get out. He wouldn't get out. He would be obedient when someone told him to get out. This little beast, I forgot my father after marrying a wife. I'm so angry! No, when did I agree to let him marry this girl? Oh, I'm so angry!"
Yang Ling sat in Yunshui Hall, Wu Wending and the other three were eating and sucking, hesitating and trying a lot of effort. Yang Ling then reluctantly connected the meaning from the words of the three of them: Maybe he went to pay homage to the King of Shu, and the officials and guards were waiting outside the restricted area. Wu Hanchao and his father talked about family matters for a while, and then sneaked to have a affectionate love conversation with Song Xiaoai.
Wu Wending must have seen some clues, but he chased after him and saw scenes that he shouldn't have seen. Parents in the world probably had their first reaction to worry about their son learning bad things. What's more, if they didn't have their parents' orders and the matchmaker's words at that time, they would have sex with men and women in private, which was originally a ruthless act, so Lao Wu naturally had to come forward to rectify the family style and clean up the door.
At first, due to Song Xiaoai's identity, Wu Wending gave her some face, but just scolded her son with confidence. But in Song Xiaoai's ears, she couldn't help but point out a few words. She explained shyly and reluctantly, which was like adding fuel to Wu Wending who was angry.
He felt that Song Xiaoai was using his official body to suppress him, and the two of them verbally fought and said that they were about to be there, so Song Xiaoai left the official body and only used an ordinary woman to seek Wu Wen's decisive understanding. Wu Hanchao, who was unaware of his eyes, looked at his sweetheart who was pitiful and defended her a few words.
It's okay if your son talks to others and fights me against me? Is it okay? If you really want to pass the door, then it's not going to go against the sky? Wu Wending was angry and began to chase and chop off his son. Although Wu Hanchao's martial arts skills are higher than him, how dare he fight with his father? So he used his ability to "can't fight". As a result, it caused misunderstandings from the guards in Houyuan who were unaware of it, and thought that an assassin had touched him in.
Yang Ling couldn't help laughing. Since ancient times, honest officials have been unable to make up for family affairs. From their own different standpoints, they cannot say who is right or wrong. Apart from the emperor with the highest authority, who is qualified to make a random match?
Yang Ling looked at Wu Wending and thought to himself: "According to the current trend, it is no wonder that this bearded man is angry when he sees such a thing. However, Song Xiaoai wants talent and figure, and his status and status are only strong. What is the fundamental reason for Lao Wu to object to them? If he finds the root cause of the disease, it will be easier to deal with.
Now he is on the fire, and I am afraid that he will not listen to anything he says. I might as well suppress this matter first. When he gets angry, I will talk to him carefully. How can I make this a pair of people who make heaven and earth?”
When Yang Ling thought of this, he saw Lord An standing at the door and looking inside, and stood up and smiled, "Sir Wu, don't be angry, so let's put aside the housework for the time being. Let's talk to you carefully again afterwards."
Seeing Wu Wending open his mouth and want to speak, he lowered his voice and said, "Just just now, the young master was chased and jumped into the room. The Houyuan guards mistakenly thought that the assassin had already disturbed the Prince of Shu. The King of Shu was seriously ill and was very angry by this. Although Han Chao was my guard, if the King of Shu must deal with him strictly, I would not be able to stop him. Don't cause trouble at this moment, I will go and claim the crime to the King of Shu."
Wu Wending was shocked when he heard this. The Wu family was just a single seedling. Although he was waving his sword and shouting more fiercely than anyone else, if his son really didn't hide, he wouldn't be willing to cut down even if he was on the back of the knife. If he angered the King of Shu, he would be dismissed from office at the least, and was imprisoned at the worst. Is that a joke?
After appeased Wu Wending, Yang Ling winked at them, walked out of the lobby, and said to Lord An: "Haha, it turned out that it was just a false alarm. Lord Wu, the Tongzhi of Chengdu, was teaching his son a lesson. Let's go and reply to the prince so that the prince would not care about it."
When An Wentao heard that his subordinates caused trouble first, he couldn't help but glared at Wu Wending fiercely. If Yang Ling hadn't stood under the eaves and looked waiting for him to walk with him, he would have rushed in and scolded him.
Seeing everyone leaving, Wu Wending glanced at Song Xiaoai, looked at her son again, snorted angrily, and left in her sleeves. Wu Hanchao said "ahee", then retracted his hand awkwardly, and smiled awkwardly at Song Xiaoai, "Xiao Ai, my father has this temper. The wind is wind and rain are rain, but it passes. He never holds a grudge. I will persuade him again. My father listens to my mother the most. When I get home, I will let my mother..."
Song Xiaoai gave him a big roll of eyes and said frivolously: "I know, your father listens to your mother's words the most, and you listen to your father's words the most, hum!"
Song Xiaoai was just for Wu Hanchao today. She had never been angry with others before. After saying that, she turned around and left angrily. Wu Hanchao was stunned for a while and sighed a long time. He took two steps back and sat on the chair Yang Ling had just sat on the floor. He thought about it and slapped his thigh. He sighed again: "Being a human being... is difficult!"
After hearing the reply from Yang Ling and An Wentao, the King of Shu frowned and said, "This Wu Wending is said to be an honest official and not afraid of power, but has a violent personality. He is a strong person. He had a quarrel with Duke Xu in the court in the past, and it seems to be true. However, this person is too impatient and wants to teach his son a lesson and will not go home to say it. He made such a big joke in front of the civil and military officials of Chengdu Prefecture."
Yang Ling smiled and said, "It's not my marquis' subordinates. My father beats his son and asks him to slap him twice. He relies on his outstanding light skills to jump around the roof, which caused misunderstandings from the guards. It is the fault of this marquis who disturbed the prince. Please forgive me for your crime."
The King of Shu waved his hand and said, "It's not your business, haha, don't worry, the Lord will not make a big fuss about such a thing. It's just that my king's residence in Qingyang Palace has caused many inconveniences to the temple. If someone makes trouble, he will feel a little disgusted. Jin'er. He turned around and backed up the gifts and apologized to the temple master."
Zhu Rangjin quickly responded. Yang Ling's eyes flashed with a bright light: "I don't know if this Shu king really has a rebellious intention. If it is my guess, then although this Shu king is confined to the times and has a stale concept, he is still a good vassal king who is kind and kind to the people and abides by etiquette."
After this disturbance, the conflict between the two people was instantly resolved.
Yang Ling bowed and smiled and said, "What the prince was thinking just now is actually the view of some cautious ministers in the court. However, this marquis thinks that this is the time and time. Now the old rules are not feasible, so they should be in time, appropriate to things, appropriate to places, and appropriate to people. All things are determined by the time, depending on the person, and according to the matter.
Therefore, this marquis once suggested to the emperor that these policies are only fixed and targeted, and they should first try their best. We must always allow people to try everything, just like when our marquis introduced Western crops, people also questioned and opposed it. Whether it works or not, and when there is a harvest in autumn, we will know. Before we can't grasp it, we only found a few places to try planting. How dare we use it rashly? Then the whole country planted it together and joked about the lives of trillions of people?
Now the prince doubts this policy does not matter. The prince and the prince have different actions and the same goal. Whether it is appropriate or not, whether it is effective or not, let the facts speak. Let’s look at three years if it does not last year. If the three years fail, we will look at ten years if it does not last year. If the reform of taxation, administration, military, civil affairs, and trade in some areas will not only not cause the people’s customs to be extravagant, the people’s hearts are dispersed, and morally corrupt, but will instead make the government clear, the people happy, the country and the country strong, then……”.
"Okay! I vowed you today in front of the civil and military officials of Bashu: If your political strategy and country and people are not beneficial, please ask the Marquis of Weiwu to stop as soon as possible to make up for the mistakes. If I am short-sighted and unclear, your political strategy is indeed beneficial to the country. Now I will send a steward to Shaanxi to buy new grain seeds, and I will be the first among the vassal kings to support you!"
Yang Ling said happily: "Okay! A gentleman's word is as good as a horse, but this marquis and the prince's word are determined."
The King of Shu nodded, lay on his back and said, "Today's meeting with Marquis of Weiwu is the day that I talked the most these days. Haha, I'm a little tired now. Marquis of Weiwu came to visit me. I was sick and could not get up for hospitality. I was really rude, so I asked my son to let Jin take a greeting on behalf of his father and drink a few glasses of water and wine with the Marquis to show his gratitude?"
Yang Ling smiled and said, "I don't dare to ask for it. I have heard that the prince is good at teaching his sons, the prince is knowledgeable and talented, elegant and generous. He is a talented person in Shu. It is also a blessing to have the honor to meet him today." As he said that, he and Zhu Rangjin looked at each other and laughed.
Yang Ling had just gotten up and was about to say goodbye to the King of Shu. There was another commotion outside. Someone shouted "Catch the Assassin". Then the team of soldiers rushed in again. The King of Shu was really angry this time, and he didn't want anyone to help him. He sat up and beat the couch and shouted: "Bastard! Even if he is the strong man, I will chop his head today. I will repeat it again and again. I am so ignorant of the generality and read the sages in vain. It's such a sage! It's such a sage!"
Zhu Rangjin hurriedly supported him and said, "Don't calm down, your father's anger, your health is important!"
The King of Shu pushed him away, pointed to the door and shouted: "Go, arrest that bastard Wu Wending for the orphan king. Strictly handle it, and you must do it strictly!"
Yang Ling was also a little annoyed. He frowned and looked at the door. He saw the captain of the team of soldiers hurried in, clicking on the ground with one knee, holding his fist and saying, "Prince, someone in the front hall has just made trouble, and Bei Zhi was worried and strengthened his patrol. Unexpectedly, when the soldiers stabbed the trees with guns and spears, a masked man in blue jumped out from inside. This man was very skilled in martial arts. He stabbed three guards to death with a short blade, and fled. Bei Zhi sent people to pursue him."
The King of Shu was stunned: "There are really assassins?"
Li Sen, who was originally lazy, suddenly looked tight: "Who did the assassin come for? The King of Shu has been recuperating here for several months, and he has never seen an assassin attack. Today, the defense is stricter, and the assassin is coming instead. Could it be...?"
Yang Ling exchanged a look with him, and the two of them quickly understood each other in their hearts: "If the assassin comes from outside and comes for the imperial envoy, is it that the King of Shu innocent and someone else wants to be ill-treated against the court? But... how do you know that this is not the King of Shu confessed his suspicious plan?"
The police inside and outside Qingyang Palace were very strict, and there were officers and soldiers searching for patrols everywhere. The governor, Lord An, rushed out quickly. An, browsing the inspection office to inspect brothels, restaurants, teahouses and restaurants throughout the city. The King of Shu was still angry and said with hatred: "This pure land is also extremely pure. Who is brave enough to despise national laws so much?"
A guard rushed into the outside, his face covered in sweat, and he hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty..."
The King of Shu was refreshed and interrupted him, "Has the assassin caught?"
Yang Ling watched coldly, and saw that his anxious expression was not as fake as he was surprised and anxious, and he was even more confused. He heard the guard say, "Prince, what... What assassin? Beizhi came from Xingye in Xuzhou. The prince went to Lingxiao City alone to appease the mantras of the Duzhan. Unexpectedly, they betrayed their faith and detained the prince. They asked the court to move all the Han people out of their place. Please send troops to save the prince quickly."
