Chapter 119 Yangping Gossip
Zhao Yu was silent for a while and said, "I always feel that I can't see through it. I don't know what you are thinking. You don't care about money, you don't pursue power, and you don't take the beauty seriously when you send it to your house. Just say Zong Ze, he is still a good name. What about you? What are you?"
"Your Majesty, you are so considerate." Ouyang said movedly: "To be honest, I don't know what I am good about. You may pursue a sense of accomplishment. You see, Yangping is rich and everyone is happy, and you feel very accomplished. Just like what Your Majesty hopes, all nations come to court, a sense of accomplishment!"
"Is that?" Zhao Yu sighed and said, "But it's comfortable to talk to you. Even the ninth father-in-law, he would think about it while talking to me. Unfortunately, I am the emperor and cannot pursue my children's love."
"Yeah!" Ouyang nodded in favor of Zhao Yu's great idea.
"I want to transfer you to Beijing. Do you know the main reason?"
"That was his Majesty's support."
"Pretend to be stupid! But next I will talk about the key points. Even if you and I have a one-night love, even if... I am the emperor, if you do something extraordinary, I will not be lenient. If you want to stay in Yangping, don't let the court shake you as soon as you take action. I have many small counties under my rule, and you will never stop, and you have no intention of calming down. Even if I can turn a blind eye, what about the ministers? If you turn back, you should keep the students in mind. No matter what method you use, at least forty students will be able to get out of this year's exam."
"Yeah, your Majesty is wise."
"Late at night, go back!" Zhao Yu thought about it and said, "Also, two months will be Cai Xiang's 60th birthday. I have told him that although you are a big official in Sesame, you are famous, and this invitation should be sent to you. I advise you to go there in person. I have seen too much, don't talk about you, even if there is something ridiculous, as long as someone in the court can help you, the outcome will be completely different."
"yes!"
As soon as I returned to the city, a yamen runner came to report: "Sir, the representative of Hangzhou New City has now arrived at the East Gate." Ouyang told me that if you want to greet the team in person, you have to come to me as soon as you report the number in the East Gate.
"I'll go over now." Ouyang looked at Zhao Yu: "Or, you go back first..."
Zhao Yu looked at the left and right and said, "Let's go and have a look!"
"Brother, you lead the team yourself." Ouyang was happy to see Ou Feng. Youdao met an old friend in a foreign land. Although he couldn't say he knew, he had the word "Ou Feng" after all. Ouyang was particularly kind when he saw Ou Feng.
Ou Feng was also happy when he saw Ouyang: "Brother, it's pretty, strong, and has a good complexion. He just didn't have a good rest and his eyes were a little bloodshot. This time I could explain to my father. Look, they are all experts selected from our county. Dad said that the trip fee was paid by Oujiazhuang, and don't care about gold, silver and copper, and at least take a few brands to go back."
"It's the extreme, it's the extreme." Ouyang bowed to the back: "Hello fellow villagers, I have worked hard all the way. The place where I live has been arranged. Please rest first. I will send someone to take you around tomorrow. Come and take everyone to rest."
"You are kind, you're kind." A group of athletes responded politely.
Ou Feng quietly approached Ouyang and whispered: "Ouyang, don't you see any acquaintances inside?"
"acquaintance?"
"Liu Xiu'er!"
"Where?" Ouyang turned around and looked at me again and shook his head: "Brother, don't scare me."
Ou Feng glanced a few times and said in surprise: "Huh? Where are you going? The station is still there. Let me tell you that Liu Xiu'er lives in the capital now. He was a disciple of his grandfather. This time he was waiting for us to come to Yangping at the intersection, why did he disappear?"
"I'll send someone to find him." After Ouyang ordered a yamen runner, he asked nervously: "Is she married?"
"I heard that someone is here, and I will pass in a few months." Ou Feng glanced at Zhao Yu and asked, "Your wife?"
"Barring, can you not tell your uncle if you have a wife? Let me introduce it." Ouyang said: "This is my cousin, Ou Feng, the Xincheng County Wei. This is..." "It's his god sister."
Ou Feng clasped his fists: "I'm polite."
"I've seen an adult."
Ou Feng nodded unexpectedly and said, "Is there a place to drink?"
"Yes!" Ouyang looked at Zhao Yu: "You..."
"Go together!"
North Street is the location of the former county government office and the main agricultural product trading market. After nightfall, it was turned into a night market as usual. Simple sheds, including cooking, drinking, and singing music, and more than 30 stalls occupy part of the road. Ou Feng laughed and said, "Ouyang, you're doing a good job. It's not like our new city, it's like a ghost city at one to two, so it's not so lively."
"It's a misunderstanding. One day I met a few refugees who came to Yangping to make a living. I saw that they were illiterate and softened, so I asked them to make some fried and wine at night. Unexpectedly, everyone was excited when they did this. You came by coincidence. The emperor was coming, and the streets would be closed tomorrow."
Ou Feng smiled and said, "You are so unlucky. Look at our new city. Not to mention the emperor, even the state officials will not go down for half a year. When you come, you must pay at least tens of thousands or eight thousand guan, right? But you Yangping people are rich and can afford to make trouble."
"Haha! A loss-making business." Ouyang saw that Zhao Yu's face was not very good, so he hurriedly said, "What are you eating? There are a few classic dishes here, hot pot, pickled vegetables, grass carp, and sauerkraut and sauerkraut and stir-frying onions, and there are also many ordinary home-cooked dishes."
"Eat hot pot this June? Just do it, the main thing is that the wine must be good. I like your Yangping Tang wine the most. What is Li Bai Chenjiu and Du Fu Daqu, it tastes good and is cheap. Even when you go to Xincheng, the price cannot be considered expensive."
"Sir, you are here." When the most lively queuing clerk saw Ouyang arrive, he immediately stopped to greet him. Someone immediately brought out the other tables and chairs. As the magistrate, there are still special benefits.
"Come a few specialties, and you need good wine. Make ten kinds of Tang wine, each of which is a cup."
"Okay!"
The three of them sat down and Ouyang asked, "Brother, how are the uncle and aunt in good health?"
"It's okay, my mother just talks about you several times a day. My father said, "You are busy, and you will naturally go back and take a look when you are free." Ou Feng said, "Ouyang, I wonder. You are the top scholar, Yangping is doing well, why are there no signs of promotion? In the Song Dynasty, there are only one top scholar in three years, but there are dozens of people. Only five have not entered the pavilion. In addition to dying young, they are at least the fourth rank. We still expect you to enter the pavilion and become the prime minister, and to glorify the ancestors. Will you offend anyone?"
Zhao Yu said on the side: "He will not do it by himself, he will not be able to rely on Yangping."
"Yangping is now fat. If you don't have anyone in the court, you will be promoted. Sooner or later, it will not be yours." Although Ou Feng is the lowest-level official, he can see through it. In any place where there are poor mountains and bad waters, people are usually not welcome to stay in the court, and they may stay for decades. But like Hangzhou and Yangzhou, there are either people in the court or people who stay for a long time. The competition is too fierce, and more than a hundred officials will be produced every few years, so there are not so many shortcomings to make up for. Yangping has been blown away by people all over the place. In fact, it is indeed. Ou Feng just looked at the menu and looked at the dishes ordered by people nearby, and then roughly calculated that this stall will have a consistent income in one night. Of course, the premise is that Yangping people need to have money to consume so much.
"Don't worry, the emperor told me that I will be the magistrate of Yangping for the rest of my life."
"Nonsense!" Zhao Yu said: "When did the emperor say that?"
"Well...eat vegetables."
After drinking a few sips of wine, Ou Feng said, "There is still serious this time. The first is that the Southeast Money House has come to our house. They said they will open a shop to the north soon. I hope you can help them advertise ten periods of advertisements in the Royal Newspaper. The second is that Dad asked you if you need someone to do it. If you want, there are still capable people in Oujiazhuang, which is easier than outsiders. Third, I have a magistrate entrusted by me, and I want to do some side jobs and run some places, but the money is not much. Do you see if there is any suitable project?"
"The first point is that you have to contact the Royal Newspaper Advertising Department to collect money. Now the price of Yangping Porcelain is 100 cents per issue, which depends on who has the money.
As for manpower, there is no need. I have enough people here. I have side jobs, so I really have ideas. Let's do this. Tomorrow I will ask Ouping to take you to meet the Yangping Chamber of Commerce. I will invest another 100,000 yuan. There are actually a few merchants here looking for Southeast tea partners. They mainly used Southeast tea to Liao to exchange livestock, gold to exchange fur, and ginseng. Then they turned back to sell it. The profit was so high."
"Hundreds of thousands?" Ou Feng whispered: "You really dare to catch them. Be careful that the emperor knows and cut you down directly."
"...", Zhao Yu buried his head in drinking.
"Brother, don't worry." Ouyang glanced at Zhao Yu and said, "This money was earned by my younger brother in Liao Kingdom. My younger brother is the boss of the largest capital of Liao Kingdom. There is a prime minister on it and aristocratic forces below, and it has been running smoothly."
"Don't brag." Ou Feng said contemptuously: "You might as well say that the Emperor of Liao is still your godfather."
"Oh, brother, how do you know?" Ouyang said: "The beloved daughter of Emperor Liao, Princess Shang, is my serious sworn sister."
"..." Zhao Yu choked with a sip of wine. She believed that what Ouyang said was true. It turned out that this kid avoided the important things and only told herself that he had opened a casino in Liao Kingdom, but she didn't expect that she was so familiar with the upper class of the Liao people.
Ouyang hurriedly patted Zhao Yu on the back and shouted: "My man, come on a glass of water. Is it okay?"
"Cough!" Zhao Yu said slowly: "It's okay."
Ou Feng smiled: "Look, your sister laughed. My younger brother has never bragged since he was a child, so he didn't know why he had this problem after all these years."
"Report!" A yamen runner clasped his fists and said, "Sir, catch that woman."
Ouyang Khan: "Did I tell me you want to catch me?"
"..." The yamen runner was dissatisfied. It was clearly what you said, so just use some force if you should use it.
Ou Feng said: "Please bring her here."
Liu Xiu'er was soon brought over by a female yamen runner. The female yamen runner said, "Sir, I was caught in Nan Street. I also asked where the temporary yamen is."
"You go and do your business." Then I went to find myself.
"yes!"
"Xiu'er, sit down!" Ouyang apologized: "Sorry, the people below misunderstood."
It’s nonsense, it’s blaming others for misunderstanding. Zhao Yu felt funny on the side. He looked like he was facing a great enemy just now, and those who didn’t know thought that a thief from Jiangyang came. Liu Xiuer saluted to several people: “Brother Ouyang, Lord Ou, you’ve caused you trouble.”
Ouyang looked at Liu Xiu'er and was really a change in the age of a girl. She used to look very pretty, but now she looks even more pretty and has a bit of subtle charm. Her big black braid is particularly popular. Ouyang hurriedly greeted: "Sit down! Why are you here Yangping, don't you say hello first?"
"Yeah!" Liu Xiu'er sat down and did not answer Ouyang's question. Instead, she looked at Zhao Yu and said, "Sister is so beautiful."
"You are beautiful too." Zhao Yu took out a jade bracelet and gave it to Liu Xiu'er: "I can't let you call me sister for nothing."
Seeing that he was about to refuse, Ouyang said, "Hold it." He glanced at Zhao Yu's arms with pleasure, and didn't know what else was hidden.
"Yeah, thank you sister."
The addition of Liu Xiu'er made the atmosphere awkward, and the two brothers Ouyang didn't know what to say. Both of them felt sorry for others. Liu Xiu'er was interested, but Ouyang was unintentional. Zhao Yu felt very interesting when she saw that the little girl misunderstood her identity. As a result, the meal was very plain. The only good news was that Liu Xiu'er saw that Ouyang did not even have any intention of her, so she gave up and promised Ou Feng to go back to the capital tomorrow. Ouyang pretended to keep her and asked someone to ask Bai Lian to be responsible for the safety of the road. By the way, she said: I have to go back when I go back, and I have to go back if I don't go back, so as not to worry the family.
Ou Feng is in poor condition and is drinking too high.
Ouyang caught a few friends and sent him to the guest room of his temporary yamen. On Zhao Yu's side, Ouyang still asked carefully: "Look, your carriage will arrive tomorrow evening. Where are you staying today?"
"I've found someone in the city, please send me over!"
The middle-aged woman was very dissatisfied with Zhao Yu, and left without saying a word and came back soon after the third update. However, after seeing Ouyang, all her dissatisfaction disappeared. Ouyang said that this was her cousin from another place and was very grateful for her intake. The woman was so eager that she could not help but help boil hot water, which was very attentive.
After everything, Ouyang said: "I will send someone to patrol the neighborhood later, strengthen protection, and then let Xiaoqing and the others come over, so you can have a good rest."
Zhao Yu asked: "Do you have no idea of sending me back?"
"Yes!" Ouyang answered honestly, "But I dare not, I'm leaving." He really dared not. There are thousands of women in the world, and there is no need to feel uncomfortable for himself. How serious the consequences of getting a wrong woman are? Just look at the tragedy of modern society. How many men have made mistakes and become fathers because of getting a wrong woman. If something happens accidentally, it would be a mess. Besides, even if people with sex finally get married, they are the emperor. What is this? The prince consort? The face? The inner son? What a shameful historical record. Originally, the history textbook says: Ouyang,
Politician, businessman, culturalist, military strategist, Ming family, diplomat. He planted the seeds of capitalism for the Song Dynasty and played an immeasurable role in the exhibition and rise of China... He carved the dead little devils to death. How good is it to write this way! But what if... the textbook becomes: Ouyang, a sexologist. As the emperor's personal favor, he commanded the three thousand handsome men in the harem. He is simple and generous and selfless. He recommends a handsome man to accompany his wife every three days on average. He is clean and honest and noble in morality. He is a moral representative of the 5,000-year history of China. His spirit will be immortal and shine with the sun and the moon.
It is a great thing to stop the bed with the emperor! The pear is very big.
He was big and Zhao Yu was not young. After the incident, she was nervous for a month, afraid that she would get pregnant. This was related to her throne. First, she said she had been to guard her for ten years, and second, because she was willing to guard her, the princes had a plain attitude towards her usurping the throne. No matter how she usurped, they were all from the Zhao family. Besides, although Song Huizong deserved to die, the Song Dynasty was the country of the Zhao family. What if she didn't protect herself, what would she count as a child? Is it a prince or a bastard? Could it be that Wushan ** got mated in her dream?
It is undeniable that since we met Ouyang, Zhao Yu had a good impression of Ouyang. Otherwise, Ouyang would not be able to live out of the princess’s mansion or the palace. In any case, in Zhao Yu's opinion, it is acceptable to dedicate his body to Ouyang, but it is absolutely impossible to lose his country for Ouyang.
The next afternoon, the emperor's Kongluan frame arrived and was welcomed by ten miles outside Ouyang City. Then Zhao Yu naturally moved into the renovated yamen. Although it was simple, Zhao Yu was not too picky in this condition. Tokyo is now a prince who has a good relationship with Zhao Yu. Cai Jing and Zhang Xuanming stayed behind with a literary and military officer. Zhao Yu is now very smart. As long as Zhang Xuanming seizes military power, nothing will happen. Ouyang listened to Xuan outside the Luan frame and went to see Zhao Yu according to the rules. Due to Zhao Yu's arrival, the East Gate and North Street were completely sealed. North Street was where Zhao Yu lived, and the East Gate was responsible for specializing in purchasing ingredients for a group of people. In this regard, Ouyang did not send people, but sent a three thousand wing army to the state, which was commanded by a defensive envoy. However, the daily food and accommodation of these three thousand people still had to be solved by Ouyang. If it was not paid, it was always right to pay.
Zhao Yu met with the Imperial College of Yangping on the same day, summoned Liu Huilan, deputy editor-in-chief of the Royal News, and summoned Zhan Ming. During this period, he cared for the two of them and asked about their marriages. Then he summoned Mr. Su and other Yang Ping's head figures. Finally, he had dinner with two officials who retired and returned home. He was waiting for the competition the day after tomorrow, but he never expected that the imperial guards would start the conflict with the local yamen runners that night.
