Chapter 45: Please, Your Highness.
"The Qiang people believe in the heavenly gods, and in their hearts, the holy girl is the person closest to the gods," Qian Shan held her cheek with one hand, lying in front of the book, frowning and thinking, "Miss, do you say that this holy girl really hides some secrets, maybe if she understands it, she can become an immortal and live forever?"
Xia Feng glanced at her: "If there really is a fairy, how can the saint die tragically, King Ning is her only son, how can she be weak and sick like this?"
"That..." "
Bacheng is quite ignorant and believes Wang Mao's nonsense. Xia Feng stood up, paced slowly, and walked out of the tent.
Today's sky is blue and cloudless, and the northwest camp is placed on the northern line, with an endless desert in front and thousands of Daqing people in the rear.
She folded her arms and looked at the gray-blue horizon in the northwest: "Qianshan, sometimes, the unknown is a terrible thing. We have been holding on to the northern front for generations, but we can't see the demon hidden in the yellow sand of the steppe, and we accidentally let this demon spare the defense line and extend its claws into the rear.
Qian Shan then followed her out: "Miss, didn't you just say that Wang Mao bewitched Naiman?"
"I don't know, I always feel that whether it is Nai Man or Wang Mao, they all have a common purpose." Xia Feng turned to look at her, "That's this unknown secret, and besides, it's definitely not a good thing." The
master and servant were standing in front of the tent thinking about life, and they saw Yu Han with a black face, taking hesitant small steps, and slowly coming in the direction of the tent.
Xia Feng saw that his stomach hurt even more than when he saw Fan Pu's debt collection face, put on a look of 'I'm tired, I'm all about to roll', and flashed back to the handsome account. I only hoped that Qian Shan would have a little look and help send off this big creditor.
It's a pity that Qian Shan has never been a person with eyes, and happily greeted him: "Yu Handan, why did you come over, are you looking for a big handsome?" She's in the tent. Xia
Feng: "..."
Yu Wei raised a face twisted into bitter melons, looked at the beautiful eyebrows in front of him, and muttered: "Qianshan, I... The big marshal is the god of the eight northwestern states and is my manager. I really don't dare... I never dare to think differently. "
Xia Feng: Sure enough, I came to collect debts.
"What are you talking about? Qian Shan didn't know why, "Just think about it, our handsome face is so thick, and there will be no less meat."
She said with a bright look in her eyes, and said with a bad smile: "You won't show your heart to the marshal, right?" General Yu, please take a look at His Royal Highness King Ning, and then face yourself squarely, do you have someone in the family, is there someone handsome? "
I... I didn't, no," Yu Han almost cried, "It's not me, it's... It's the husband.
Qian Shan looked at him like a wood: "What a mess, the big marshal can hear it inside, go in and say." The
two entered, and saw Xia Dashuai, who was still sad a while ago, leaning tiredly on his seat, and when he heard the movement, he lifted his eyelids and exhaled a breath of overworked: "It's General Yu Handan, why are you here?" Yu
Handong knelt down with a bang, his knees hitting the blanket, and he slammed into the sound of destroying the world and destroying the world. Xia Feng's forced drowsiness disappeared instantly: "What are you doing?"
"Shuai, you are the goddess of the sky, and your subordinates dare not blaspheme. It was the old man who insisted on letting his subordinates enter the Duke of Zhaoguo's mansion. Yu Han said as he said, tears actually fell, "There are three generations of single transmissions in the subordinate family, and my father and mother do not want me to become famous, but only hope to do my best in this life to guard the border." Subordinates..."
"Enough! The more Xia Feng listened, the more his brows furrowed, "Ladies of the right age, which one do you fancy, just say, I will let people be a matchmaker for you." "
I..." Yu Han snorted for a moment, he lowered his head and could only see the sharp corners of Qian Shan's clothes, his eyes did not dare to glance around, and he hesitated and did not say why.
Xia Feng knew his nature well, and said helplessly: "Shut up, if not, let me go back to Yanzhou, it's okay to dangle under my father's nose." "
Subordinates obey. Yu Han got an affirmative answer, no longer had to worry about being arrested as a son-in-law, stood up and gave a salute, and simply left.
"Miss, Yu Handan dares to refuse you. Qian Shan said maliciously, "Did you hear that? He just turned around and disliked you.
Xia Feng ignored her, casually pulled out the documents on the table, and said while looking at it: "Qian Shan, you arrange for someone to secretly protect the safety of His Royal Highness King Ning from today onwards." He may be in danger recently, you remember, be sure to be on guard.
"Why? Qian Shan said suspiciously, "Since you discovered that King Ning had his own people around him, didn't you order Li Feng to evacuate them?" Is this happening again?
"That's right, pay attention to the movements of several families, which may change in the near future. Xia Feng stood up, "If I'm not mistaken, the second aunt is the daughter of the Wei family, right?"
"Yes, the second lady is also a pitiful person, after so many years of conscientious care for your family, you and your father-in-law are not kind to others." Qian Shan grew up in the Xia Mansion, and she has been taken care of by Aunt Wei since she was a child, "You won't doubt her, right? That's impossible.
"She is my father's concubine, and if she wants to be kind to my father, what does it matter to me?" Xia Feng glared at her: "Another Tianning King will come to the mansion to see my father, and we will go back together." Over the years, I have indulged them too much, and I am my father.
Qian Shan asked, "Are you going to start rectifying the Huaiyuan clan?"
"We are defending the enemy on the northern front, and we can't make trouble in the rear." Xia Feng lowered his face, "It's all about to change the dynasty, and some people still dream of dynasties." I
don't know what Xiao Mingchen said to Fan Pu, his invincible and honest debt collection face was unexpectedly brightened and more energetic.
"Now that the Jiangnan is in turmoil, the princes are taking care of themselves, although we are in a quiet corner, we can take advantage of the benefits of remoteness to recuperate for a long time.
Fan Pu sat at the head of the marshal's tent and said seriously: "His Royal Highness King Ning's strategy is beneficial to the northwest, and his subordinates naturally support it." It's just that after all, he has just arrived, and you hastily give him the decision-making power, and the people below are afraid that they will not be convinced.
Xia Feng could see it, he just put aside his prejudices for the time being, reached an agreement with King Ning, and still did not miss any opportunity to give people eye medicine.
"Gongchen, the northwest military and civilian officials and businessmen are united in one heart, after all, King Ning is from Shengjing, of course, he can't be in charge in the open. But you are the secretary of the Northwest Army, you have been in charge for many years, and you dare not obey it, and you still have to solve the matter of bad money. Xia Feng looked at him with a smile.
"This..." Van Pu swallowed and was silent for a moment.
He originally wanted to insinuate King Ning, not let him interfere in the northwest government affairs, and deal with evil money and the family should also do it himself, which was not what Xia Feng said at all.
Xia Feng rarely had a positive color: "Gongchen, I know that you have the world in mind and have the talent of Lying Dragon and Phoenix." But you should understand that I am a military general, and at most I will be the commander of the first army. Xia Patriarch's halberd can seize the world, but it can't rule the rivers and mountains. "
Great handsome. Fan Pu hurriedly stood up and handed over his hand: "The subordinate has no intention of doing this, just worried about you."
Xia Feng got up and bypassed the book case and held him: "I, Xia Feng, can walk and ride a horse, and can hold a knife if I can hold a spoon, not to marry a wife or be a husband and a son." Gongchen, I am a woman, and it is common for people to love King Ning, but in my heart, the eight northwestern states are more important than everything.
"Yes, the subordinate understood. Van Pu was silent for a long time, and took a deep breath.
In the next few days, Xiao Mingchen was busy, and Xia Feng could bump into Fan Pu or other ministers when he asked him for dinner several evenings.
She occasionally sat down to listen for a while, and a group of literati who could have scolded her were even more energetic, only two of the ten sentences were talking about business, and the remaining eight sentences were all insinuations and asked each otherAncestor Hou.
This group of ministers is different from the martial generals who fight with real swords and guns, most of them come from wealthy families or squire families in various places, and those from humble backgrounds like Fan Pu account for a minority.
The evil money thing, on the surface, Xiao Mingchen was helping Xia Feng rectify the rule, but in fact, he was really moving the foundation of the great clan. This group of literati is not stupid, especially if a few people come from the Longyou clan, they are more sensitive.
Xia Feng and even the old Duke Xia Yi, although they had never targeted the Longyou clan, they kept secretive about them. Especially Xia Feng, the reused henchmen and generals under him, almost no one was from the family.
Policy changes are all accompanied by bloodshed, and Xiao Mingchen has done this evil person for Xia Feng, and he will be the first to be scolded.
"Your Highness, do you know what I've heard the most in the past few days? Xia Feng held the sword in one hand and a silk silk in the other, carefully wiping the sword body, "It is said that you have bad intentions and intend to seize the northwest.
"If you hadn't asked General Li Xiao to follow me during the day, this group of people would have been able to point at my nose and scold." Xiao Mingchen chuckled, and then frowned, "What can I do about this, will they come to Xia Guogong to smear me?"
"Although my father is not old and confused, the three of them are tigers, alas." Xia Feng shook his head and put one hand on his right shoulder, "Your Highness, there is a long way to go. The
sword in her hand flashed, and the finger on Xiao Mingchen's right shoulder pressed soothingly, suddenly got up, and left the account in an instant.
Not far from the tent, a group of soldiers was patrolling back and forth, and the spring insects chirped in the dirt, safe and calm.
She turned back with a calm face and instructed: "Be careful no matter what you do these days, some people can't hold back."
"Don't worry. Xiao Mingchen approached and held her fingers that gripped the hilt of her sword, "I'll be fine."
"You..." Xia Feng looked at his handsome face, and his heart moved slightly, "I'm sorry to put you in the northwest because I'm in danger."
"A Feng, rectify bad money and suppress the gate valve, this is what I did for my ideals, it has nothing to do with you, it has nothing to do with the northwest." Xiao Mingchen hugged her, "Everything is difficult at the beginning, but there must always be a beginning, and if I were elsewhere, I would also do it."
"But..." Xia Feng was silent for a moment, "In any case, I don't want you to make this knife."
"Since I was a child, I have admired Shang Martingale very much, and I sacrifice the society with my body, regardless of the aftermath. Xiao Mingchen said, "But I'm not him, I won't die because of this." The world is muddy, and I want to split this broken earth and fight for a tomorrow for the people, for myself.
After he
finished speaking, he looked at Xia Feng with some indescribability: "You... Have you been busy lately and when are you free?
"What do you want to do?" Xia Feng glanced at him.
"Go to your house, but you just said it makes sense. Xiao Mingchen said seriously, "If Xia Guogong listens to the rumors, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the gate of your Guogong Mansion, can you join me?"
Xia Feng raised his head and looked at him, the corners of his lips raised, as if he was smiling: "Beg me, Your Highness." "
