Love Like the Galaxy

The next two days, Shaoshang passed the time in the Changqiu Palace as usual. Every time the queen asked about the war ahead, the old man looked calm and relaxed. Unexpectedly, on the seventh day of the army's opening, a report was sent from the front, and the emperor was half-dead with anger. It is said that he scolded him at the Shangshutai for half an hour, and the Changqiu Palace and the Yue Concubine did not go anywhere.

Shao Shang was a little nervous when he was ordered to deliver porridge and dim sum, and held Yuan Shen at the corner of the palace alley and asked what was going on.

Yuan Shen frowned and said, "The magistrate of Tongniu County has surrendered to the enemy."

In terms of geography, Xiaoshang is a confused person, so he can only ask: "Is that the use of troops to acquire land?"

"Although it's not far from Shouchun, it's not a major military town." Yuan Shen said, "But the magistrate Yanzhong came from a poor family and was personally promoted by His Majesty."

Young businessman understands in seconds, the old man was slapped in the face.

Shaoshang said, "At this time, when you join the enemy, your brain will definitely not work."

Yuan Shen put his hands in his sleeves, looking at the sky and said: "Maybe Yan County magistrate is also a little resentful. I heard that His Majesty asked him to lead a county prefect a few years ago, but he was too much to clean up the law. Let’s cut it, your majesty in front is still using troops, and the aristocratic clan in the back is about to be forced to turn against you. For the sake of appeasement and the preservation of the two, your majesty can only ban him to Tongniu County.”

"Not necessarily. Yan Zhong is still somewhat talented, otherwise His Majesty would not have promoted him." Yuan Shen laughed, "There is a copper-rich mine in Tongniu County, and there is a A huge copper smelting yard. In order to prepare for the Battle of Shouchun, the imperial court has not collected copper from Tongniu County for the whole year this year, and plans to fetch it on the spot. I made a rough calculation, and the county has accumulated a lot of it. Two thousand catties of fine copper."

Young businessman didn't react: "You mean Yan County magistrate covets these fine coppers? Why does he want fine coppers? If he wants to be covetous, he covets gold..."

"Stupid! Holding a pair of gold is what attracts attention! Those fine coppers are already prepared products, as long as the copper water is poured, there will be countless coins immediately!" Yuan Shen said in a bad tone. "The report said that Yan Zhong had fled with the 2,000 catties of fine copper and his wife and children a few days ago. Before he left, he pretended to surrender, and gave the Tongniu County, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, to Peng. Really, he doesn't know where to go. Hmph, Peng Ni also asked him to put it together."

"Now the land of Shu is not the land of the king. I heard that Yan Zhong is going to the land of Shu. Even if His Majesty wants to conquer Shu, it will take at least a few years to prepare. By then, Yan Zhong will I don't know where to hide!"

I saw Yuan Shen's expression solemn: "He is from the Han family, and he is not afraid of getting involved. It would be good if he voted for the king of Shu, and he will be the day when His Majesty's army breaks through the land of Shu. When the head was conferred. But if he changed his name and changed his surname and went to the countryside to become a rich man, there would be a huge crowd and it would be hard to find him."

In addition to being surprised, the young businessman was actually moved a bit strangely: "It's a tricky trick, and the twists and turns are repeated! I didn't expect that being a traitor these days is so particular." After being moved, she turned towards Yuan Shen said, "Since Tongniu County is not a big deal, you should persuade Your Majesty not to be so angry and hurt your body."

Yuan Shen was silent at first, and after a while, he whispered: "Your Majesty is not angry for this."

Shao Shang was stunned and reacted immediately. The old man was not angry because of the gain or loss of a city, nor was he angry because he was beaten in the face, but in the future, if he promoted the inferior, he would be easily opposed by the important officials of the family! With a small sigh, she felt that the old man was not easy, and said, "Why don't you say that Yan Zhong is Yan Zhong, and there are many poor disciples who are devoted to state affairs, how can you be partial? "

Yuan Shen stared at the girl, with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth: "You understand quickly. However, how can I persuade Your Majesty, where am I from?"

Shao Shang blinked his eyes: "Didn't the sage book say that we should raise sages for the country, and don't care about family and friends?"

"Where, where, how can I read a lot of books by Mr. Shang." Yuan Shen returned, "However, I dare to ask that 'for the country, do not care about family and friends' is from that sage Books? Xiaoke has little knowledge and knowledge, so please give me your advice, Master Shao Shang.”

Shao Shang was unhappy. She hated people taking her liberal arts subjects the most: "You are such a disgusting person. Knowing that I am not familiar with reading, you have to get to the bottom of it." Don't show off about this!

Yuan Shen also seemed to think of it, and remained silent.

The topic of Shao Shangjian was skipped, and his expression gradually became darker, and he said with a smile: "Young Master Shanjian, last time I heard that you finally found five good-looking female sons, how are you now? ?"

Yuan Shen said with a dark face: "Thank you for your concern, Shao Shangjun, it's already five in three!"

His broad sleeves flicked, and he turned away like a wind and cloud. Halfway through, he turned his head and whispered, "Actually, knowing that you have already read "Lv's Spring and Autumn", my heart is full Jia. However, I'm afraid I can't be Qi Huangyang."

Then before the girl could react, his figure disappeared around the corner.

Shao Shang didn't take it to heart. Anyway, she and Yuan Shen have known each other for so long, and they didn't break up when they rarely parted. She is more concerned about His Royal Highness now, after all, she is now half a foot on the Prince's boat.

Since Qu Lingjun left, the prince has been very depressed for a while. Of course, he declared that he was still 'recovering his wounds'. Ling Budo's persuasion was very simple and rude, and he directly asked the emperor to give the prince more work. When people are busy, they have no time to hurt spring and autumn. In Ling Budo's view, most of those spring flowers and autumn moon groaning were just idle.

Coincidentally, Cui You thinks so too. In order to control those jubilant children in the army, he could only keep sending them tasks to find things. To this end, Cui You did not hesitate to go over mountains and mountains to inquire around, and worked hard to find several small-scale bandit villages for the teenagers to practice their skills.

At first, those ambitious sons and buddies could not even recognize Ma Suo and trap Ma Gou. In the first few battles, a few were even captured alive, and Cui You had to pay the ransom first. When he went to explore the road with the scout, he encountered a pitiful woman who asked for help, and he was almost wiped out under the attack of stupid blood. But the most interesting thing is to count the few brothers who carelessly went to the liquor store in the bandit village to inquire about news. When they went there, they were unrestrained and unrestrained. in the forest.

However, Cui You is very kind, and when he rescued these people, he deliberately dismissed everyone, and only sent a few strict confidants. After the victims came back, they were very grateful to Cui Laoshi. After a few times, those noble children were either wilted or cautious. In short, they were all honest, and one-third of them could be packaged and sent back to the capital. Cui You was very satisfied with the performance of these bandits, so he waved his hand and called for security.

Therefore, before the good news of breaking Shouchun came, there was a pile of memorials for Cui You in the local area, and the emperor was quite dumbfounded.

Just when Shao Shang was worried that Uncle Cui's protracted march would delay the military situation, the prince came to Changqiu Palace excitedly to report the good news—

"To say that Marquis Cui is indeed wise, it turns out that he deliberately spread the news that the children of Zhong Xungui were disobedient to discipline, and went to suppress the bandits with great fanfare, making Peng Ni's party members think that the army was not only far away On the horizon, the situation is still worrying. Who knows that Cui Hou has secretly let Zi Sheng lead a light cavalry to attack the trail day and night! A few days ago, Zi Sheng had already captured the capital city, and even killed one of Peng Ni's vanguard generals!"

"

The young merchant said worriedly: "Those adults entrusted their sons and nephews to Marquis Cui, if Zisheng took all the credit, wouldn't people complain."

The prince smiled and said, "Don't worry, Cui Hou is shrewd. Some of the tasks like chasing the remnants and cleaning up the mess are for those sons to do."

"It's about the same." Shaoshang nodded, "I hope others will make more contributions, Mo called Zisheng too conspicuous."

The prince thought to himself that his father wanted Ling Budo to be more showy and show off this time, how could he be as you thought, but he had a gentle temperament, so he followed the girl's words: "Don't worry, those Not all of the honorable children are playboys. Although the war is not over yet, several young heroes have emerged, and it will be a happy situation for everyone in the future."

credit."

"Lou Ben? Did he also go to Shouchun with the army? Why haven't I heard of it." The Queen said.

Because the previous county magistrates poured the city into a high, thick and solid, if they really want to attack hard, the casualties are probably not small. Who knows that Louzi can only be eloquent and well-versed in the way of vertical and horizontal, and he has persuaded the general Peng Ni, who is defending the city. Abandon the darkness to the light. In this way, without spending a single soldier or soldier, the Tongniu County is also lost and recovered!"

Shaoshang’s heart changed, Lou Ben? Isn't that Lou Yao's compatriot? With this credit, it is estimated that Lou Yao can find a better place to be a parent official now, and He Zhaojun will not object.

With the frequent news of good news ahead, although the battle of Shouchun is not over, the big victory has been completed.

Shaoshang let go of his heart, and the queen pity her for her separation from Ling Budo, and even the academic requirements are loosened again and again, and Shaoshang can live a sheep-herding life without any burden. It was probably because God saw that she was too idle and flew out of the sky.

While adding a bowl of hot **** bone soup to the queen, Shao Shang respectfully said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, that's exactly what it is. Not only is my father and Uncle Wan the same brother, the two are also the same family. it is good."

The emperor looked at the bowl of soup and felt a little sour in his heart. At this time, it is winter, and the fresh **** that grows naturally is long gone, and some are just old ginger. These tender and fresh **** are easily planted by girls who use charcoal fire to heat the greenhouse.

The queen is weak and weak, and the spleen and stomach are weak. It is better to use **** in winter. However, because there are not many plantings, the girl has always been used only by the queen, and others can only watch.

There was no change in his face: "Today, the imperial censor Huang Wenlai played that the impeachment of Wan Songbai has disturbed the law and order."

The young merchant shook his hand and said in shock, "This, this... what can I do...?"

The emperor rejoiced in his heart: "Aren't you the first to complain?" The royal family and nobles had many accidents. Usually, they first complained and denied it. There are many excuses for denial.

Shao Shang hurriedly presented the soup bowl to the empress, moved to the emperor himself, and said nervously: "My mother often said that Uncle Wan is all wrong, greedy for wine, irritable and irritable, and one day he will call People are impeached! I didn't expect... so soon..."

Because the girl's reaction was fresh and refined, the emperor was speechless for a while.

Shaoshang has the heart to intercede, but she has just come here in her entire life, so she is not skilled in intercession.

"Your Majesty..." She begged with a bewildered expression, "Uncle Wan, the concubine, is pitiful."

The emperor rolled her eyes at her, thinking how could she be so pleasing, "What's the pity, illegal and disorderly discipline, natural sins will not be forgiven!"

"No no no, the concubine is not saying that Uncle Wan violated the law and discipline and improperly punished it, but..." Shaoshang said in panic, "Oh, I heard that a few years ago, a prefect surnamed Ouyang committed fraud and corruption. It is said that he has embezzled more than ten million money. Obviously the evidence is conclusive, but because he was born in a famous family, and he wrote a book, he has disciples all over the world, and there are more than a dozen adults interceding for him, and some people want to die for him - but ten thousand As for my uncle, I don’t even mention my family members, and I have very few in-laws. Now it’s just an impeachment, and His Majesty will immediately bring him to justice, and I don’t even have a colleague who can plead for him…”

The queen lowered her head to hide her smile, thinking that a girl like this would be wise to persuade.

"Nonsense!" The emperor reprimanded, "There are still people who speak for Wan Songbai today."

Although there were only two people who spoke up, he said two words 'should be investigated clearly'. However, when the girl said it, when he wanted to clean up the important officials of the family, he would move his whole body, and there was an endless stream of people who persuaded and interceded. Even the old prince of Ruyang, who was hiding in the Taoist temple, could be invited out. In this way, Yu Wan Songbai should be more tolerant...

This is Zhai Concubine who came in with a warm cage, Shao Shang hurriedly brought out a small pottery cup in the warm cage, and respectfully presented it to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please use. These kidney beans are for Seasonally harvested and sun-dried, it takes a lot of time to soak, so it's cooked right now."

I thought that Cheng Shaoshang was not completely confused. Knowing that he likes to use wine and meat on weekdays, he served such a light and greasy stew. The kidney beans melted in the mouth, and the **** was delicious and crunchy. The emperor liked it very much, so he looked at Shaoshang a little bit.

The queen couldn't help but chuckled.

The emperor drank the soup unhurriedly, and said leisurely: "Huang Wen said in the memorial that the Wansongbai circle occupied the land and forced several young girls to be concubines... What's the matter with you..." The girl His eyes were like copper bells.

"Your Majesty, this is not right!" Shaoshang said, "Uncle Wan is probably wronged!"

The queen wondered: "How do you know?"

Shao Shang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Empress, if you two have met Uncle Wan's concubines, you will understand! My Uncle Wan, what...the taste has been the same for decades Day... he he, he only loves..."

She couldn't say anything, she wanted to gesture with her hands, but she forcibly endured, "Uncle Wan, he only likes plump women with graceful appearance. Those concubines of his, when they were brought into the mansion, were not A person who is less than twenty years old would be better if he married and had children..." To put it bluntly, Mrs. Xiao has complained countless times about Comrade Lao Wan's instinctive pursuit of biological reproduction.

The girl said vaguely, but the emperor and the queen understood.

"It's more reliable to say that Uncle Wan kidnapped people's wives, young girls..." Shao Shang was helpless, "Uncle Wan... According to my father's words, even if he is drunk and unconscious, he will I can't get it wrong..."

The original words of Father Cheng that she overheard were, what a thin waist and what a slender demeanor, Lao Wan never dismissed it. He likes **** and fat buttocks, and he touches it, but he doesn't want anyone who can touch the bones!

The emperor hesitated: "...Huang Wen has always been cautious, and all the people involved are guilty of guilt..."

"Since there are nine out of ten, what about one or two? Maybe it's a mistake." Shaoshang said in a hurry, seeing the Queen's disapproving eyes, he hurriedly fell to the ground, " The concubine has committed rudeness, please forgive me."

The emperor didn't take it to heart, he stroked his beard and said, "Well, Xuanwan Songbai came to the capital, and asked Ji Zun to ask him, if it's all right, go back and continue to be his county governor."

Seeing the girl's pitiful appearance, and thinking of the adopted son again, the emperor sighed softly and said: "Forget it, when the people from the Tingwei Mansion came out, they made some rumors. Wan Songbai came to the capital to report his work, and he has been in office for half a year anyway, so he will explain things clearly by the way."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Shao Shang happily kowtowed and thanked him.

The emperor gave his wife a sideways glance and tried his best.

Originally, Shao Shang was going to stay in the Changqiu Palace this night, but when such a thing happened, she had to get the token from the queen and leave the palace overnight. When they got home, everyone had rested, and Shao Shang hurriedly asked Mrs. Qing Li to wake up Mrs. Xiao and hurriedly informed the matter.

After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao first looked stunned, then asked the emperor and daughter for the details of the question and answer, and then loosened her brows: "Fortunately, Your Majesty should not want to punish your Uncle Wan immediately, otherwise he will not Will deliberately say that in front of you."

Shao Shang thought for a while: "Mother is right."

The famous generation. Since he dares to impeach, he must have some confidence."

The family is in trouble? If Uncle Wan really commits a serious crime, I am begging for him..."

Mrs. Xiao said solemnly: "What's the trouble, you did nothing wrong this time! We have a fateful friendship with the Wan family. Whether your uncle Wan has done it or not is the same thing. Whether we want to help is another matter. If your Uncle Wan is really confused, we'll do our best!"

Thinking that her daughter can absolve Wan Songbai without hesitation in front of the emperor, she has the warm and loyal bearing of her husband, and it is not in vain for Wan Eqi to say that her daughter is a family who can entrust her life all day long Little man.

It is rare to be praised by Mrs. Xiao, and Shao Shang is a little uncomfortable.

In the early morning of the next day, the emperor's decree messenger galloped away quickly; after another two days, Cheng Song and Wan Qiqi proposed to Mrs. Xiao that they were going to pick up Wan Songbai on the way.

Cheng Song said: "Mom, Qiqi can't stay at home for a moment, she has to go to Uncle Wan to ask her what happened. The old lady has promised her, I...I want to go with her, Otherwise, don't worry..."

Shao Shang winked and laughed.

Wan Qiqi's face was flushed red, proud and embarrassed: "Aunt Xiao, it's all my willfulness, you persuade Ah Song that I will be skilled in martial arts, know how to ride and shoot, and take my family's soldiers on the road. , it'll be alright."

Mrs. Xiao said: "Why are you being polite to me, what kind of friendship are our two families, can I watch you go on the road alone?" After thinking about it, "Well, let Zifu take you there. However, you and your father will not miss it on the road."

"No. There is only one official road to Xu County. Besides, I already sent my servant Feima to report yesterday, so my father won't randomly copy alleys."

"That's good." Mrs. Xiao nodded, looked at the pair of happy little children in front of her, and said hesitantly, "But...although the two of you are already engaged, but you will eat and sleep together for a few days, after all Also consider the etiquette…”

Cheng Song blushed and bowed her head, but Wan Qiqi's eyes lit up: "Auntie, why don't you let Shao Shang go with us?"

Shao Shang was stunned for a moment, then very moved. The last time I went out with Uncle Pig's Trotter, although I encountered a tragic incident in the world, the rest of the time was still enjoyable and I benefited a lot.

"Few businessmen, less businessmen." Wan Eqi took her best friend's hand, her face full of excitement and earnestness, "You go with us! Now it's getting warmer the farther south you go, so you should consider it a tourist. It's good to play with the mountains and the water..."

Cheng Shaogong complained: "At this time, the mountains are covered with snow and the water is frozen, so what kind of landscape are you playing?"

"Shut up, dare to demolish my stage, be careful I tell you how you cried when you changed your teeth!" After threatening, Wan Eqi said to Shaoshang again, "The one from your family Master Ling is like a man-eating tiger all day long, and you look at it so closely, after you get married, you can't go out at will!"

"Qiqi." Cheng Song reprimanded with a smile, "Don't talk nonsense, be careful and tell Ling Zisheng that you will look good when you look back."

"It doesn't matter." Shao Shang waved his hand with a calm face, "Auntie Qiqi is right. In comparison, all the jailers in the Tingwei Mansion have no face. .Then, mother...?" She asked to see Mrs. Xiao.

Mrs. Xiao thought about it for a while, and then said: "It's okay. Since Shao Shang has gone, Shao Gong, you can go too."

Cheng Shaogong was dumbfounded and wailed: "Mom, I don't like going out! I want to stay at home!"

Cheng Shaogong said angrily: "This is the foot of the emperor, where else in the world has the aura flourishing here?" Having said that, under Mrs. Xiao's strong suppression, he obediently agreed. .

Before the four of them left, Mrs. Xiao began to give routine orders.

There is no need to say more about the two sons, the years of admonition are not in vain, but the two girls are a bit tricky, one is a good deed and loves to join in the fun, the other is rebellious and reluctant to take anger, the two get together Can pierce the sky. .

Mrs. Xiao solemnly said to Wan Qiqi, "Hurry up honestly along the way, don't allow any injustice along the way, don't allow extravagant branches, and don't see the city and countryside along the way lively and playful."

Wan Qiqi agreed. Cheng Song coaxed from the side: "You promised to be very happy, I'm afraid you can't do one of them!"

Mrs. Xiao said: "It's okay. Eiqi, listen carefully. If you don't want to walk the official road, I will blame Zifu. If you are injured or sick, I will still blame Zifu. , if you get into trouble, I'll still beat Zifu... Do you remember?"

Cheng Song:…

Wan Qiqi:…

Mrs. Xiao turned to her daughter, Shao Shang smiled heartlessly: "Does my mother also scold Master Ling?"

Mrs. Xiao said: "Of course not. But if you don't have the old way of practice, or if you cause trouble, I will tell Zisheng all and let him take care of you. If you dare to mess around, I will Let's see if you can go out again for the rest of your life."

Short quotient:…
