Chapter 240 Women disguised as men

After hearing Yang Ze's question, Yue Xiufeng looked embarrassed on his face. Some things knew were one thing, and others knew about them, but if this matter was told from his own mouth, it would be another thing. As the confidant of the governor, he still knew this kind of common sense.

With a smile on his face, Yue Xiufeng said, "Mr. Yang, I don't know about the matter that is too specific. Otherwise, when you meet the governor, do you go and ask yourself if you are ok?"

Yang Ze felt that he should have met the governor Gong Yangliu, especially now that something happened, a general from Chang'an could actually get lost in the territory of Qiuzhou. Chang'an was more than a thousand miles away from Qiuzhou. He could pass through such a long distance. If he arrived in Qiuzhou, he would get lost. To put it bluntly, this general may have been harmed by someone. If such a big thing happened, it would be impossible to say anything.

Yang Ze said: "However, if you want to check strangers, it will be very troublesome. You have also seen that Zhenxi is close to Tuluhun. There are too many people coming and going to the west, almost all of them are strangers. How do I check this? Otherwise, I will check it roughly first, and then go to Quzhou and ask the governor how to investigate it carefully. What do you think?"

He planned to do Murong Xigu's affairs first, and then go to Qiuzhou. As for how the general was missing, he was not easy to make decisions. Maybe he involved some upper-level struggles. He participated rashly, and he was afraid that it would be bad.

Yue Xiufeng breathed a sigh of relief. That was his original intention. As long as Yang Ze could do things according to the requirements, the Lang General, who was involved in the princess, also involved the imperial envoy. What could he, a small frontier lieutenant, say? It would be better to listen to everything!

Yang Ze asked someone to arrange a residence for Yue Xiufeng, so he went to meet Murong Xigu, saying that he wanted to go to Qiuzhou, and also kindly invited Murong Xigu to go with him.

But Murong Xigu declined it. For Murong Xigu, it is okay to come to the west, but it is not enough to go to Qiuzhou. The governor of Qiuzhou has never been very good at Tuluhun. If he goes to Qiuzhou, the governor detains him, and he is called to keep you as a guest. Wouldn't that be bad!

Yang Ze also knew that he would not go, so he was polite and asked Yan Chenghou to prepare everything he should give to the Murong tribe, and the gold from the Murong tribe had to settle. In addition, he urged him to hand over the Gamuhan to the west when the other two heads of the town would be handed over to the west. These things were discussed, and as long as they were done step by step, they could be done.

Yan Chenghou listened to the instructions and asked, "Mr. Yang, these things are very important. You have to come forward in person and let your subordinates do it. It seems that they are not worth enough!" He had no experience in dealing with Murong Xigu, and was a little scared and did not dare to do business with a Khan.

Yang Ze patted his shoulder and smiled and said, "You will do these things in the future and you have to learn them. Also, first, I want to go to the state, and second, I cannot be too enthusiastic about Tuluhun people, otherwise the future business will not be done. As the saying goes, "Going to the rush is not a business." If I do everything, it will make Tuluhun people think there is something wrong, so it is better to leave it to you. You should be a little cold and make them think that they are asking us for help. Instead of us asking them for help, the business will be easier."

Yan Chenghou nodded repeatedly after hearing this. He understood this principle, but hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Yang, what is going on to drive a child, not a business? Where is the dialect?"

Yang Ze smiled and said, "This is a northern dialect. Don't you always use scales when doing business? If you give higher scales when selling things, it means that you give more things and the buyers take advantage of the things. But if you give too much, the buyers will think that there is something wrong with your things, just like if I'm too enthusiastic about people with Tuluhun, they think that using tribute to wine or something is a problematic business, which will cause trouble."

Yan Chenghou exclaimed, scratched the back of his head, and said, "Isn't it better to be too enthusiastic? Is it possible to pay the money and deliver the goods at the same time? What's the problem?"

"What is the problem? It depends on what everyone has their own ideas. If we can think of it in advance, then it will be fine. People's hearts are the most difficult to figure out." Yang Ze said.

After thinking about it, he took out the paper and pen and prescribed another prescription. This prescription was not a cure for the disease, but a body conditioner. He handed the prescription to Yan Chenghou and said, "This is a prescription for tonics. After I leave tomorrow, you will give it to Murong Xigu, saying that this is the prescription taken by the princes, so that he can drink and see if it is enough for the prince's level. Also, no matter he wants a thousand taels of gold, this prescription cannot be given to him in vain. There are also those things about the Toutuo, so that he can send people over quickly."

Yan Chenghou said in surprise: "A prescription costs 1,000 taels of gold. What kind of prescription is this?"

He looked down and said even more surprised: "Isn't this the tea brick? It's just adding milk and making it a butter tea. It makes the drinking method complicated. This is also a prescription?"

Yang Ze smiled and said, "Of course, I have asked Murong Xigu to drink it last night, but it has not made it into the style of butter tea. For those who eat beef and mutton all day long, this is a good thing. As long as Murong Xigu feels it is useful, isn't there any saying that if the people above like it, the people below will follow the trend. People from Murong's ministry will soon drink this. They won't make tea bricks. At that time, our business will grow bigger, and this is a long-term business."

Yan Chenghou said oh twice, carefully put the prescription in hand, left the house, and went to do his business.

That night, Yang Ze gave Murong Xigu a second dose of medicine. Judging from Murong Xigu's symptoms, the two doses of medicine were almost the same. He said a lot of words about the prince's level and gave Murong Xigu a hint that the generous princes need special methods to drink tonics.

Murong Xigushen agreed that as a descendant of the Great Yan Dynasty, he was very concerned about everything related to the prince.

Early the next morning, Yang Ze left the county government office and told Li Yan and his wife that he wanted to go to Qiuzhou. He also told him that the person sent by the eldest princess was missing. Li Yan and his wife had a lot of trouble out of thin air. They all wanted to know what was going on in Qiuzhou, but they couldn't go and see it. I guess they couldn't ask anything if they asked others. After all, the matter involved the eldest princess, which was a very difficult existence to mess with.

This time Cai Cai spoke. When Yang Ze talked to her parents, she kept listening and didn't interrupt. But she also saw her parents' expressions and felt that she should do something for her parents. After going to the grassland once, she felt that she had become an adult and could not be like those who used to play and be willful and naughty!

Naicai said: "I haven't been to Qiuzhou yet. This time Yang Ze is going to the state, so I want to go with him. My father and mother, please let me go and open my eyes."

Li Yan and the princess looked at each other and thought to themselves: "Why did this child suddenly become sensible? He is willing to take the initiative to be a witness for us!"

Li Yan was a little worried and said, "You just came back from Tuluhun. You should stay at home for a few days. Why do you have to go out again?"

The princess said, "This time is different from last time. She went out alone last time. We are worried. This time, Yang Ze follows you. What else can happen? When the child is grown up, you have to see the world. What can you see when you live in such a small county town?"

The couple had different opinions, but Li Yan was a little afraid of his wife. He knew in his heart that there would be no danger. Yang Ze would definitely take good care of Caicai, but he was afraid that the officials in Qiuzhou would make things difficult for him. After all, the couple was still under house arrest and could not leave the city at will.

Yang Ze looked around and thought, "If I refuse to bring Caicai to Qiuzhou, I am afraid that these two will become suspicious and think that I have any collusion with the eldest princess. No matter how good I have to treat them before, they will not appreciate it. I will not be able to do this anymore. Why should I offend people?"

He said, "If the little princess wants to go to Qiuzhou to play, then follow Xiaguan. If the prince and the princess are worried that it will be unsafe as a girl outside, then it would be better to let her dress up as a soldier and follow Xiaguan, just like Mugen, which would not be less trouble."

The princess' eyes lit up and she said, "Yes, it's a good idea to dress up as a man, why didn't I expect it?"

Li Yan thought to himself: "When my mother exiled me, of course I can't leave the county town, but I didn't say Caicai was not allowed to leave the city. She was not born yet from Beijing. It would be better to ask her to go to the state for a trip, or to have more contact with Li Ze, and to find out what the eldest sister sent someone to do."

As soon as they figured it out, Caicai would of course follow Yang Ze. The princess was happy and took Caicai to dress up as a man. Yang Ze left the palace and was about to go out, and had to deal with some things.

When the sun was noon, everything was finally done. Yang Zehui and Yue Xiufeng left the county government office and saw a soldier standing at the door, holding a horse in his hand, as if waiting for them to come out.

Yue Xiufeng glanced at the soldier and said to himself: "How can this man look yellow? He can't be sick!"

Yang Ze looked at the soldier and smiled slightly. The soldier was Caicai. He put on his military uniform and made his little face yellow. He looked a little sick.

Cai Cai blinked at him with a very proud expression. She was looking forward to going out as a man.

This time, Yan Chenghou was still the one who stayed in the county town, but there was another Hao Weifeng. Yang Ze was afraid that the people from Murong's troops would do something before leaving, so he specially kept Hao Weifeng to help Yan Chenghou coordinate and check on strangers in the city.

After leaving Zhenxi County, a crowd rushed towards Qiuzhou. Because they had something to go out, they rushed to hurry. Everyone rushed to hurry without hesitation. Although the ground was full of snow and the road was difficult to walk, the time for traveling with such a hurry would probably be reduced by half.

Qiuzhou, the governor Yang Liu covered his waist with one hand, and looked at the person in front of him with a flattering face, constantly saying things to please him.

The man in front of him was a young eunuch named Qin Luoluo. Qin Luoluo was here to announce the imperial edict. The eldest princess asked Gongyang Liu for a title. The man in Zhenbian County, that is, the title of the baron. The fief of 300 households is the lowest title, but it is hereditary, which can be regarded as fulfilling Gongyang Liu's wish.
