Chapter 344 Think with your heart
No matter how confused Qin Minxue was, he vaguely understood that the Langzhong in the room, who was called Mr. Qian by the king, came to drug himself, and more than a dozen Langzhong in the front yard of the royal palace came to see the prince. It seemed that the prince's illness was well known to be done by the king in Yongzhou. What he knew more was that it was not the prince who was really sick. It's his own young master, who pretends to be the prince, who doesn't run like this, but where can he go? Zhao Yu coughed gently behind him, and Qin Min couldn't sell his legs. He quickly turned around and walked to Zhao Yu: "Prince, this joke can't be made."
What puzzled him was that Zhao Yu didn't know what ecstasy soup Wang had poured. He actually agreed to Wang's idea. He was looking at himself with a smile: "Qin Shaofu, don't worry, I'll be fine here."
Wang also asked Qin Min with a smile, "Why, is Qin Shaofu still afraid that my king will harm you? Everyone is an official in the same court, and I will not come to harm you."
"Yes, that's right." Zhao Yu is also in line with it,
Seeing that Qin Minxue was still hesitating, he smiled and said, "If Shaofu is unwilling to do this for the prince, then what loyalty is there?" Qin Min learned this hatred. Why don't you do it yourself? You didn't wait for him to speak. Wang said, "Since Qin Shaofu has pretended to be the prince first, let Qin Shaofu go to Dali for the prince or get sick for the prince in Yongzhou. I won't force you to choose one of the two."
Qin Minxue remembered Lin Xiuxiu's words. Someone wanted to harm the prince when he was in Dali. If he pretended to be the prince to go to Dali, it would be better to pretend to be sick in Yongzhou. "Well, since everyone said so, I have to do this for the prince. What about the medicine?"
Qian Yi handed the fried soup to Qin Minxue's hand. Qin Minxue frowned and drank it. After a while, he felt that his hair was heavy and his legs were soft and the people in the house were blurred. Finally, he saw Zhao Yu looking at himself nervously and concerned and then fell asleep.
Wang asked Yang Jian to learn Qin Min to **. Qian Yi took Qin Min's pulse and nodded and said, "Your Majesty, prince, the medicine has worked. This person is just drowsy and his pulse is messy, but it will be fine after sleeping for two or three days, and it won't hurt his body."
"Well, let's sit in the study for a while, Yang Jian. Those men outside will come later. Do you know what to do?"
Yang Jian hurriedly said that he knew that Wang and Zhao Yu and Qian Yi left the other courtyard and ordered someone to invite Lang Zhong to come in. Looking at Qin Minxue's sleepy appearance, Yang Jian shook his head and muttered in a low voice, "Alas, you are really unlucky."
Two days have passed. In the past two days, many people left the south palace of Yongzhou Zhennan Palace one after another. The first group of them left was the princess who returned to Shu. It is said that the princess returned to Meizhou this time to bring some brocade of Shu and the workers of Shu. Then it was the king of Zhennan and his party who left the palace. I heard that the king of Zhennan would accompany the prince to Dali. The people were confused. Didn't the prince say that he was seriously ill? Whether to take the seriously ill prince or to make an envoy for the prince, which the people can't figure out.
The king of Zhennan was as majestic as entering the city. There were guards in front of a team of people. The two generals, Zhe Kejun and Zhang Ping, guarded them. Behind him was Gao Zhisheng, accompanied by Zhao Yu, followed by Zhang Fangping, Hou Shuxian, two elderly people, and Yang Shihan, who was responsible for the safety of the prince, followed a few carriages behind them. With Han Derong on his face, Wa Zhuang took the 400- or 50-person bodyguard mat,
Out of Yongzhou, a group of people went westward. After passing through Daxin and Tian, Jingxi, Xiaoxing stayed for six or seven days to see Napo County in front of him. Along the way, Wang Bian could receive a quick letter to and from Yongzhou every day. The state officials waited for Wang's approval of important matters through express letters every day. In addition, report on the progress of the household registration system,
Napo County is located in the southwestern border of Guangxi and the southern edge of Liushao Mountain, the remnant vein of Yungui Plateau. It is connected to Jingxi County in the southeast. To the west is Dali, and to the southwest is Jiaozhi. The mountains in front of you are steep, and the peaks are undulating everywhere. The group of people took the horses. The king ordered people to go to the county government office first to inform the local officials. It happened to have been gone for most of the day. Everyone had a little trouble. After resting, Gao Zhisheng pointed to the mountain peak not far ahead and said to the king, "Brother Xian, pass this slope county, and then cross this mountain to Dali."
"Yes, crossing this mountain is not under the jurisdiction of my brother Yongzhou, nor is it the territory of the Song Dynasty." Zhao Yu said with emotion,
Wang listened to the conversation between the two, but he didn't say anything. His slightly frown and closed lips seemed to be a little worried. Everyone got off the horse. A bodyguard came to feed everyone's horses. There was a gazebo in front of him. Wang and others went to the pavilion and sat down on the stone stool. Yang Jian raised a bonfire with his accompanying husband. After a while, the hot tea was brought up,
During the break, Hou Shuxian and Zhang Fangping were chatting. Gao Zhisheng and Zhao Yu sat next to the king. Seeing that the king seemed to be thoughtful, Gao Zhisheng smiled and said, "Why doesn't the prince seem to be very happy all the way? Is it because of our agreement?"
Zhao Yu asked curiously, "Did the two brothers agree on anything?"
"Oh, the king of Zhennan bet with me that Yang Yizhen would walk with us, but Yang Yizhen hasn't appeared when he got here. I think the king of Zhennan is sure to lose this time." Gao Zhisheng said,
Zhao Yu had a headache when he remembered Yang Yizhen. He was caught by Yang Yizhen before. Fortunately, he didn't know that he was the prince. Now if Yang Yizhen walked with him, wouldn't he be in danger? He hurriedly looked at Wang and asked, "Brother Wang, this bet is not fun. I think it's better for you to lose."
Wang came to his senses and smiled: "What's the fun? If I lose, will Brother Gao listen to my advice in the future? Besides, how can I lose? Don't worry, now Yongzhou knows that the prince was sick in Yongzhou before. As long as Brother Gao doesn't expose your truth, I'm afraid Yang Yizhen doesn't know you. It's the real prince.
"Anyway, I'll leave it to you. If I'm in danger, Brother Wang, you won't sit idly by, but since you are so sure, I think Brother Wang is talking less and less along the way."
The king didn't answer directly. Gao Zhisheng stood up and said, "I think the king of Zhennan must be because of the Song Dynasty. I don't think it's convenient for me to ask here. I'll go for convenience." He stood up and walked to the woods not far away.
When Zhao Yu saw Gao Zhisheng leave, he asked again, "Brother Wang is so depressed? Are you still angry that I let Qin Minxue pretend to be me?"
Wang saw that he misunderstood and shook his head and said, "That matter is not worth my anger at all. Qin Minxue, if you don't mention it, Zhao Yu simply broke the casserole and asked, "Then you should talk about it."
"You really want to hear it." Wang looked directly at Zhao Yu and asked,
Zhao Yu nodded, and Wang said, "In the past, I have also traveled a lot of places. Yanzhou is located on the border between Song and Xixia, and Baozhou and other places are located on the border of Song and Liao. The same border is much different. The border of Song and Liao, the land of Yanyun, due to the alliance of Tanyuan and the two countries, although there are also some small frictions, most of them are at peace with each other. Live and work in peace and happiness. The people have suffered a lot from the handover between Song Dynasty and Xixia, but fortunately, Xixia is a vassal to the Song Dynasty, and in recent years, there have been some common ground. In most cases, there is still a way for the people to make a living, but you can look at Yongzhou..."
"We have been out of Yongzhou for a few days. You can also see that the places and counties we have passed through are dilapidated one by one. Look at the people along the way. Have you ever seen decent houses? Not to mention the more and more desolate along the way, the fertile fields are abandoned and the people leave their homes, which only shows that there is a bad state of people's livelihood in this place that we don't know. Yongzhou There are eight prefectures under its jurisdiction: in addition to Yongzhou, there are also Guizhou, Binzhou, Chengzhou, Hengzhou, Qinzhou, Xunzhou, Luanzhou and thirty-three counties. Such a large area is handed over to me. Now I only see a little like Yongzhou City, but what to do around Yongzhou? No wonder Yang Yizhen can station troops here. You see the terrain, such a defense When we arrived in Jingxi, the county was dilapidated and could block the young soldiers. It was almost on the slope in front of us. I can't imagine what the slope looked like. Wang said in one breath and sighed,
Only then did Zhao Yu figure out what Wang was worried about. He said with relief, "Brother Wang, if it's for this matter, wait for me to go back to my father and send more troops to increase the defense of these places."
"Ha ha, you, if I say that what you think is too simple, I'm afraid King Ying doesn't like to listen to it. Send troops. Look at these counties, they can't afford to raise soldiers together. Besides, now Yongzhou is a pilot of autonomy, just like the armor protection law. If Yongzhou can't be implemented, how will it be promoted in my Song Dynasty?"
Zhao Yu looked helpless: "The armor protection method, rural residents, every five groups have one guarantee, five guarantees are one major protection, and the ten guarantees are one guarantee. There must be people. Look at this barren mountains and mountains, a county may not be able to protect one. You don't want to send troops. Brother Wang, do you have any good way?"
Wang pointed to his head: "I'm still thinking about the way, but there will always be a way. The reason why I was silent was that I didn't see such a situation before. I thought that Yongzhou could prosper the economy by relying on the port and terminal. Now it seems that the basic production should also be grasped. We have to hold both hands."
Zhao Yu looked at Wang and laughed: "Brother Wang is actually a new word. Besides, find a way to think carefully. What's the use of pointing at your head, hehe."
"Ha ha, you think about it with your heart. I can think about it with my head." Wang knew that it was useless to talk to Zhao Yu about who was thinking with his mind. He said with a smile,
Gao Zhisheng returned to the gazebo. Seeing that the two were talking and laughing, he also said with a smile, "I said that your brother has something to say. I just left for a while, and the matter of the king of Zhennan was solved."
Zhao Yu put his arm on the king's shoulder and said with a smile, "Of course, we are good brothers. Naturally, Brother Wang has something to do, and I, as a younger brother, have to enlighten him."
Looking at their indecision, Gao Zhisheng was very envious, and remembered that he and Duan Silian were also brothers in those years, but now he is so deadlocked, he can't help sighing,
The three of them laughed, and a bodyguard came closer and told the king, "Your Majesty, the county magistrate of Napo County, the chief official is ready to wait outside the gate of the county." Everyone got up and walked towards Napo County,
