Warmly looked at the wooden box.

An exquisite wooden box carved from oriental sacred wood.

There is an old saying: "Half of a tree in a house is better than a box of treasures."

This little wooden box is already valuable.

A box made of such an expensive ten-thousand-year-old agarwood has a hollow bracelet inside?

When Wen Yu rushed up just now, those boxes all fell to the ground.

Then the bracelet in the black wooden box also fell out. From the sound of the bracelet falling on the wooden board, she could hear that it was hollow.

It is said that royal ornaments are rarely made hollow.

Anyway, she received so many jewels from the emperor, queen mother, and Nalan Jinnian, none of them were hollow.

Nuan Nuan opened the wooden box, and before he had time to take a look at the bracelet, Nalan Jinnian strode in at this time: "I have news from Xiao Hei, Uncle Wen and General Wang felt that the original water route was a bit inappropriate and decided to change it. The original plan was changed to the second alternate plan route."

Nuan Nuan stood up immediately, picked up the black whip, and stood up: "Then they will go to sea ahead of time? We must go to meet them now, right?"

The second route goes through a valley in Dongling, which is more difficult to walk and easy to be attacked, but the distance will be shorter, which can save two days.

Lu Lu is still not afraid, and enough troops have been arranged.

The danger of the waterway is much greater, so a lot of troops are also arranged to patrol around.

The sudden change of the original route should be due to the discovery that there were too many ambush in the original plan.

Nalan Jinnian nodded: "Well, I have already told the emperor."

Wen Nuan said to Zi Yan: "All these things should be put away first! Tell your mother that the longevity festival is coming soon. Brother Seventeen and I will go to the military camp to train soldiers for a period of time, about two months, and we will come back when we are done. already."

Mrs Wu and Mrs Wang also went out today to inspect the snack workshop.

What you eat in your mouth should not be sloppy, and the two will visit from time to time whenever they are free.

So Nuan is too late to speak to them in person.

To avoid the worries of Wu and Wang, Nuan Nuan had already mentioned that he would go to the military camp for a period of time in a few days to prepare for the Longevity Festival. It's just ahead of time.

But since they have been vaccinated, they naturally don't think much about it.

After all, Nuan is not only a county master, but also a general.

Lin Tingxuan can only go back to the mansion once a month, and Nuan Wen goes to the military camp only a few times a month, which is already very incompetent!

"Don't worry, madam, I know what to say when madam comes back."

Nuan Nuan and Nalan Jinnian went directly over the wall to Prince Jin's mansion, and then went directly out of the city through the secret passage of Prince Jin's mansion.

Outside the city, Lin Feng was already waiting there.

Starting now, they have to travel all night to get there.

Zi Yan put away all the wooden boxes on the round table and locked them in the warehouse, thinking about waiting for the warmth to come back, and then taking them out to pick a few favorites for her to wear.

~

More than half a month later, at the border of Tangling Kingdom, Xinyang City.

Xinyang horse head

"Father, Sister Nuan, can they be here today?" Wen Chun asked.

Wen Jiarui glanced at the circling little black in the sky and said to Wen Chun, "Your second sister and the others are here! Alright, let's get on the boat! Uncle, Brother Chun, I'll leave it to you here!"

Wang Xiao nodded: "Don't worry, see you in the New Year!"

Wen Chun: "Father, it's a smooth journey."

Wen Jiarui waved his hand, then got on the big boat and went to join with Wennuan.

The others had already boarded the ship to prepare for the return journey.

After the boat set off, Wang Xiao put one hand on Wen Chun's shoulder: "Let's go! There are still many things to do when we go back!"

Wen Chun nodded, the two walked to the horse's side, got on the horse, and left directly.

Wen Chun was the magistrate of Matou County. He had done a good job in Matou County, but was directly transferred by a Shangguan to deal with the two cities he had just obtained from Dongling.

The reason is that Wen Chun managed Matou County well during his tenure in office and has excellent ability, so he was sent here.

There were also magistrates or cognoscenti from several neighboring counties who were transferred together.

Most of them are officials from poor families with no background.

All the officials in Matou County, including Wen Chun's Shangguan, the prefect of Luozhou Prefecture, did not know his background.

After all, if there is a background in the family, how could Wen Chun, the champion and the first, be dispatched to a place like Matou County, instead of being a Beijing official?

It must be someone who doesn't know how to be a person and has no background, so he will be sent to a place, or a small remote place.

Therefore, that Shangguan was transferred to Wen Chun without any pressure, and even when Wen Chun was transferred, he could take credit for his work in Matou County!

Everyone knows that the two cities of Dongling Kingdom must be hot potatoes. If one is not good, maybe they will give their lives here.

This is not the first time the court has won a city from another country.

I heard that there are still people rioting and resisting in those cities.

This is a thankless task that no one wants to do.

As for Wen Chun and the others, if they can manage the two cities of Dongling, the Shangguan will have a lot of credit. After all, he recommended them.

It doesn't matter if it's not good, after all, this is not what he did directly!

The biggest culprit, of course, is the parties involved.

Now, Wang Xiao, Wen Chun, and several civil officials who had been dispatched from the border of Nalan Kingdom in the past few days need to stay behind to handle the final handover of the two cities and appease the people here.

Therefore, the two cannot go back to Beijing with Wen Jiarui.

At the very least, Wang Xiao can return to the capital after the official handover of the two cities is completed, and the guards and guards of the city have been arranged.

The handover of the two cities is not an easy task.

When Wen Jiarui negotiated, he gave the Tangling Kingdom a month to withdraw its troops and resettle the people of Tangling.

The people of these two cities in Dongling had already evacuated those who received wind and those who had money.

Of course, there are also some poor people who have nowhere to go and hide in the mountains, only to come out after the handover between the two countries.

They are afraid of war.

For ordinary people, the most fear is war and displacement.

The two rode their horses back to Xinyang City, which had almost become an empty city.

Many of the people of Dongling have already left, and those who are left will not be able to leave!

Because the policy of Dongling State is to pay five taels of silver, you can go to the neighboring city to settle down. In the neighboring city, the imperial court will give you one mu of land for homestead and one mu of fertile land to build a house.

For five taels of silver, many people could afford it, but in the same way, many poor people could not.

The policy of Dongling Kingdom is clearly to eliminate those poor people.

Poor people have always been a burden on the court, and they are also prone to riots.

As long as there is a natural disaster, the court has to provide relief, and it is the poor people who are relieved.

Fifty taels of silver is not much for changing the city and settling down, and one acre of homestead and one acre of fertile land is just worth five taels of silver, so it is possible to keep all the talents with labor in the Tangling Kingdom.

Hand over the mess to the Nalan Kingdom!

A good idea from King Tanglin.

Those poor people can't go without money, they can only become the people of Nalan.

After all, it is the people of Dongling Kingdom, can they truly surrender?

They couldn't help but hate the people of Nalan Kingdom in their hearts.

Therefore, if the officials of the Nalan Kingdom are not well governed, there may be riots!
