Feng Xing

Chapter 138:

Chief Qingfeng Dao asked that the sea seek out Penglai Xiandao, maybe others do not know, but Qingchenzi cannot be concealed.

Knowing this, Qingchenzi immediately rushed to Jingshengzhai and ridiculed Qingfeng Dao for a long meal.

No one knows the specific content, but after Qing Chenzi left, the director of Qingfeng Dao made a great wish, and when he returned, it was when Qing Chenzi fell out of favor.

These words didn't even believe the Daotong around him.

However, before catching up with Laba, the leader of the breeze road held an imperial edict, with two Daotong escorts, and was escorted to Fujian by a team of Jinyiwei, planning to go to sea from there to find the legendary Penglai Xiandao.

In the palace of King Wei, Zuo Yi brought a middle-aged scribe to the study.

Opening the thick curtains, a burst of heat rushed towards me, Feng Sheng was wearing a half-family homely jacket sitting behind the book case, with a cup of tea on hand, she was looking through a book, the pages of the book were yellow, it looks like the age Quite old.

Seeing someone coming, she looked up and made a gesture.

"sit down."

Dequan served tea.

This study is the place of the king's palace, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter, so Germany is usually busy with his housework, and occasionally he also makes a small show of tea and water.Today is also a matter of importance. Feng Sheng simply sent the others away, leaving only Dequan to wait by his side.

"Mr. Zuo told you everything that should be said?"

The middle-aged scribe was stunned for a moment. It seemed that he didn't expect to see a woman, but soon he recovered and nodded.

He hesitated to say something, then Feng Sheng spoke again.

"When dealing with those people, remember that you can't hold it. It's important to see people talking about people and talking about ghosts. But you can rest assured that when there is someone in the place to meet you, you only need to cope with the breeze."

"These Mr. Zuo said to the villain, the villain will do everything in his power to help the princess do a great thing." The middle-aged scribes arched.

"I hope you can come back smoothly, no matter how, I will ask the Lord to ask you for help when I come back." After she looked at Dequan, Dequan led the people down.

After others left, Zuo Yi said: "The princess need not worry, this old man Li Yinai thinks about the object he chooses again and again. He is very discreet, he is very wise and will be competent."

"I'm not worried about his incompetence. I'm afraid that Guan Qing and that pass will not be easy," she paused, and she smiled a little: "Yes, do everything according to the destiny of the people, the arrangements have been arranged, I only hope to be able to all the best."

"It will go smoothly."

Qingfeng Dao's departure from Beijing did not cause any disturbance, and the city was still bustling, just like every year in the past.

Days passed day by day, and it was the day of New Year's Eve in a flash.

Due to the troubled autumn of the imperial court in the past two years, disasters have always occurred in various places, especially the disaster this year is particularly serious. Those gold people outside the border area probably know that Da Zhou is in the midst of internal and external troubles, and has repeatedly invaded the border city.

Over the past year, the Emperor Jianping has successively issued two guilts, and ordered the palace to reduce the cost and set an example. Therefore, there was no feast in the palace this year, only the family feast was held in the Qianqing Palace on New Year’s Eve. All of them were dragons, phoenixes, grandchildren, and relatives who were closer.

At the family banquet, King Hui did not elaborate.

On the fifth day of the Chinese New Year, Feng Sheng received a letter from Wei.

In fact, she had already sent several letters to King Wei. In addition to telling him the current situation in Beijing and China, she also told the story of Qingfeng Dao.

King Wei wrote back to her.

On the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, Feng Sheng couldn't hold back and sent a letter to King Wei. The letter didn't mention any business, and only talked a little gossip.This is the first Spring Festival that has not been spent together since she was married to Wei Wang. It is said that acacia is too hypocritical, but it is really acacia.

Feng Sheng has never been nonsense, and spent a lot of effort to send letters to Shanxi, but said some gossip, is it not acacia what can it be?

There were no major incidents in Shanxi. The King Wei was calm and had a strategy. With his repression, no major incidents had emerged out of control.

The only thing is lack of food, which is a common thing, but it depends on the batch of masters who "save food and shrink food" under his men, and then those local officials are forced to go to the door repeatedly by him, and find local big households to donate. At one point, it was enough to pass this year.

Even if there are some difficulties in the spring of next year, we can only find a way out slowly.

This is what Wei Wangxin said. In fact, Feng Sheng knew that this was a comforting word, but since Wang Wei said it, she could only believe it.

She was in Beijing, even if she was in a hurry, she could not play a big role. In addition to some officials who ordered the vassal of the Wei Dynasty, she repeatedly mentioned the disaster relief in Shanxi in the court, intending to provoke discussion and plan to surround Wei to save Zhao.

Unfortunately, the effect is not great.These things have always been arranged by Zuo Yi, because there are no senior officials who can control the government in the hands of King Wei, and they are usually deliberately suppressed when they mention it, but Feng Sheng did not give up, even if it was a misunderstanding. With.

In addition, all the arrangements were made, and the only thing she could do was wait.

Feng Sheng did not know that the situation in Shanxi was worse than she had imagined. Otherwise, the family letter that was urgently sent out in 800 li would not be sent to Feng Sheng in the fifth day, because King Wei did not receive the letter in time.

On the twelfth lunar month, King Wei left Taiyuan in private.

A batch of military food shipped to Datong was robbed.

It was the local victims who robbed the grain.

Datong is one of the nine sides, and the golden people in the northwest attack every year. The importance of Datong is beyond doubt.

Lifting up and down, any grain that is lacking will do, but only military grain at the border is indispensable.

Even if this reality is cruel, it is reality.

Naturally, the military food is not passed from the local government in Shanxi, but is directly allocated by the household ministry. There are also some merchants from all over the world who were recruited by the court to transport the food to the border, in exchange for salt, which is the so-called Kaizhong method.

This China-France law has continued from the previous dynasty to the present day. Although it is not as flooded as the previous dynasty due to proper control of the court, it is also indispensable.

Especially in times of chaos.

The more chaotic, the more active the backs of some businessmen can be seen, and profits can only be made by taking advantage of the flames. Since the salt reform in the two Huaihe Rivers, the salt areas of Sichuan and Changlu have been reformed one by one, not only for private Salt hit hard, and some merchants who survived on the opening of China and France were also suppressed so hard to breathe.

Many people have switched careers. If the price offered by the court was too tempting, I am afraid that no one would want to go on this trip.

As usual, Sanshi Grain can be replaced with a small Yinyan.A salt lead is about four hundred pounds, a small lead is about two hundred pounds.Because there are very few businessmen recruited in response to the imperial court this time, they can almost reach a ratio of one to two or one to three.

In other words, one stone of grain can be exchanged for one salt, even more salt.

In response to the reform of the salt administration, this time the conditions for the release of salt were also liberalized, which not only magnified the exchange time limit, but also changed from the current year to the five-year period, and there was no port.

In other words, after getting the salt, you can go to any coastal area in Dazhou to sell it.

In fact, it was plainly the imperial court's acquiescence in the sale of this batch of salt, even if it was sold at a high price. After all, the reform of the salt administration has not been extended to the entire week, and the establishment of the official salt store cannot possibly involve every place.

There are also remote areas where this type of salt is sold.

Therefore, even though it is known that it is the chestnut of fire, there are not a few businessmen who come to take their lives to gain wealth.

This time it was a businessman named Meng who responded to the court's recruitment to send a batch of food to Datong. Unfortunately, he was robbed halfway.

In the ordinary time, this kind of thing will definitely not be controlled by the court. After all, the grain has not reached the border, and even if there is a loss on the road, it is the business of the merchant.

But who is calling for food shortages everywhere now?

In particular, this is military food again, which can't be delayed.

Originally, the imperial court held the idea of ​​writing a blank cheque. Anyway, the grain was transported first to solve the danger of border shortage.As for Yanyin, for the court, salt was a sale without a capital. Whoever made a mistake halfway through was robbed by the victims.

Since the victims were involved, it was related to the relief mission, and it was also in the Taiyuan Prefecture. King Wei could only go to the local area to investigate the matter.

The military food was robbed in a place called Yangxing Village. From Taiyuan to Xinzhou, there are two roads to go, one is to Shiling Pass and the other is to Yangqu County.

This was when Wang Tian, ​​a book office under Zhao Tian, ​​told Wang Wei when he was walking on the road.Because I was in a hurry, everyone was riding a horse, and I was not very clear, so I could only give a brief overview of the situation.

When we arrived there, it was already twilight.

The group first came to Yangqu County. After entering the city, they went straight to the local county government office.

At this time, the county government office was closed.

Wei Wang was planning to order someone to knock on the door. Wang Cheng had already shook his legs and rolled off the horseback. A stagger almost didn't fall. He stumbled to the door and knocked on the knocker fiercely.

After a while, a man dressed as Zaoli came to open the door.

"Who? Knock what, knock early tomorrow if something happens..."

Before the voice dissipated in the air, he was called back with a slap. This Zaoli was about to yell and saw the team riding on horseback.

Especially the headed man, wearing a cloak in a black silk-faced sable with a hood on his cloak.He was tall and tall, and he didn't know what clothes to wear in his cloak, and the golden light jumped under the fire of the lantern.

He was putting down his hood, revealing a cold face like a knife.

The bridge of the nose is extremely straight, and under the eyebrows is a pair of deep eyes. Because of the rush to the road all night, the eye sockets are slightly concave, and at a glance, let Zaoli hit the cold from the bottom of the feet.

Suddenly silenced, he slammed back into the door.

"If you are young, you will report it."

This time he even forgot to close the door. After he entered, the group looked at each other and entered directly under the direction of King Wei.

Just entered and stood still, a thin, middle-aged man in a blue mantle robed, ran over with the accompaniment of several soaps.

The Zaoli, who was different, was extremely jealous. After standing, he paid a salute and asked, "I don't know which adult is visiting?"

Wang Cheng glanced at King Wei, and stepped forward: "I am Wang Cheng, the bureau under the Taiyuan government office. This is an adult from Chingchao. This time I was ordered by an Taiwanese lord to accompany him to deal with military food. A case of being robbed."

"Chin, Chin Chin?"

The county magistrate did not know why, but he knelt down on the spot until he saw everyone frowning at him, and he seemed to wake up like a big dream and stood up with the help of Zaoli.

He grinned with cold sweat, and his face was ugly and scary: "I really didn't expect it to be that the sent-in lord came in person, and the sergeant Luo Zhe'an was far from welcome, and hoped that the sent-in lord would not blame."

King Wei's expression coldly ticked his lips: "No need to be polite, go in and speak."
