Chapter 681: Joy in Suffering


{Thank you, friend Hurricane Storm commuter pass} "Girl, put aside the problem of food for now, I'll think of a way, let's continue" At present, the population of the Ming Kingdom is only 5 million, of which Liangzhou, Qinzhou and Liangzhou cannot be counted on, and the consumption of grain transportation from Yizhou is too large, and the real source of food can only be Qingyan, Xuyu and Jingbei.

According to Yang Yan's predetermined plan, as long as the grain route is opened, it is enough to support this war, but the defection of a large number of refugees in Guanzhong made him unexpected, and millions of refugees are waiting to be fed, what a terrifying concept Although Yang Yan and Li Xiong boasted that even if the harvest year lasted for two years, the in-situ digestion of grain storage and transportation scheduling are different, and the loss of the road is an astronomical amount.

Yang Yan sighed secretly and beckoned Xun Guan to squat down.

In addition to the sergeants who had training tasks and guarded the battalions, Yang Yanzheng led the rest of the people to clean up the oily ashes left in the ruins of Jianzhang Palace inch by inch.

On the ruins of Nuoda, countless people squatted on the ground, holding a small shovel to shovel the ground, Yao Xiang also grabbed a crack in a stone and picked out the black burning residue, and a bamboo basket beside him was already full of small half baskets.

Maybe it's because it's too deep, and there's only a little bit left that can't be figured out, and gradually, Yao Xiang's big xiaojie temper came up.

"Don't get it" Suddenly, Yao Xiang threw the shovel and sat down.

"Sister Yao, what's wrong?"

Li Hui'er, who volunteered to participate in voluntary labor, picked up the shovel and couldn't help but ask.

Maybe it's because of a similar experience, or it can be related to similar age or origin, Li Huier is closer to Yao Xiang and Pu Yu.

Don't look at Li Hui'er who is well-behaved and looks shy and timid, but she is from Ba Yi and is also a branch of the Di people, and the Di people are from the Qiang people, and these three girls are actually a family during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

"Hmph" Yao Xiang glanced at Yang Yan and snorted: "I have used so many fire bombs before, and I haven't seen the king shovel the ground.

Li Hui'er didn't understand where Yao Xiang had such a big grudge against Yang Yan, and when she heard this, she hurriedly persuaded: "Sister Yao, be quiet, no matter how generous and peaceful the king is, no matter how he says it, he is also a king, and it is always bad to be heard." ” Such as this kind of activity, Queen Ren also participated, in fact, she didn't understand very much, these black oil on the ground, on the trees, on the water, including the cracks in the stones, was not just a little ugly It's just that for Queen Ren, it doesn't matter what she does, the important thing is to be with the female guards and wives and concubines around Yang Yan, so that she can get rid of Li Xiong temporarily, Li Xiong is like an omnipresent shadow, glancing at Toukui's gaze from time to time, making her like a thorn in her back, and spending the sun like a year.

And when you come, you can see Yang Yan from time to time.

She doesn't want to develop with Yang Yan, if she really has a chance to happen, she can't pass the moral bottom in her heart, but looking at it from a distance, she can have a heartfelt satisfaction, as if life has become better.

Some people don't need to be touched, and they don't need to have, and it is also a kind of happiness to look at him silently.

Therefore, at the beginning, after Queen Ren was persuaded by Li Huier, she was like an addiction, and she had to come to clean up the oil stains every day.

Xun Guan stabbed Yang Yan with his elbow, signaling that Yao Xiang was complaining.

She didn't have any malice, she just felt that Yao Xiang's character was very good for her taste, and she wanted to see how Yang Yan dealt with it.

Yang Yan walked over with a smile and asked, "Yao Xiang, where did you get so much resentment, did you have nothing to do when I was full?"

Yao Xiang pouted and said: "How dare the concubine have a grudge against the king, but she doesn't understand, our Qiang family women don't know etiquette, if you offend the king, please forgive the king." “ Pu Yu hurriedly pulled Yao Xiang, and then asked boldly: "King, please forgive the concubine for asking a lot, do you think the black oil stains are not good-looking, and the concubine is also puzzled." ” Yang Yan waved his hand and said: "Feel free to do so, my family doesn't have any big rules, yes, the oil stains all over the ground are really ugly, but more importantly, the fire bomb is poisonous, which can make this land not grow, if the oil seeps into the water, the fish and shrimp will die, even if they survive, the meat will have a strange smell and cannot be eaten, if the birds drink this water, the birds will not live." ” Yao Xiang retorted: "King, if you say that it is poisonous, you may not be able to remove the oil stain when you used fire bombs before."

Yang Yan smiled faintly: "It takes time and effort to remove the oil stain, it depends on the specific situation, and the remote place will naturally decompose after one hundred and eighty years, and there is no need to take a lot of trouble."

Can be built Zhang Palace is different, Shanglin Yuan is close to Chang'an, the water network is dense, the land is fertile, the scenery is beautiful, it can be used as a royal garden by the former Han Dynasty, it has its own uniqueness, do you want such a large piece of land to be wasted even if you don't grow food, in the future, clean up the ruins, plant exotic flowers and plants, and build pavilions and pavilions by the water for people to visit and rest, isn't it also a beautiful thing Yao Niangzi thinks so?"

"This" Yao Xiang was speechless, in fact, she already agreed with Yang Yan's statement, but she was born with such a temper, and she was not convinced, so she looked around, as if looking for some omissions.

Yang Yan didn't urge, clasped his arms and smiled slightly.

After observing for a while, Yao Xiang admitted defeat and showed a look of ridicule, Li Hui'er smiled and asked, "King, why did General Liu and the others throw rice husks and straws into the river?"

Liu Lanzi smiled from afar: "Hui'er, you can come and see it, rice husks and wheat stalks can absorb oil in the water, which is quite effective." ” "Oh, let's go together, hee-hee, sprinkling rice husks is much more fun than shoveling."

Li Hui'er is innocent and lively in the end, she suddenly came to her strength, and ran over, and all the women followed, but Yang Yan grabbed Yao Xiang's tender white wrist, and signaled again and again: "Yao Niangzi, your work is not finished, how can you run, take out the black oil in the hole and go again."

"Let go, King" Yao Xiang shrank all over, but how could she break free from Yang Yan, and then looked at the crack in the stone, how could the oil stain not be clean, isn't it embarrassing, and suddenly tears of grievance flowed out.

Xun Guan couldn't stand it anymore, put Yang Yan's hand away, and said dissatisfiedly: "Don't be embarrassed, what's the point of a little oil, there will be no grass in the cracks of the stones, if you are moved by Sister Xiang'er, then I advise you to endure it first, and then go back to Luoyang, this is your own rules, no one forces you, Xiang'er go quickly." ” "Hmm" Yao Xiang nodded violently with tears in his eyes and walked away.

Xun Guan blamed again: "You, you don't have a clue about such a big problem of grain and grass, you are good, and you still have the heart to tease Yao Xiang, Yao Xiang has this temperament, if you don't like it, make it clear to Yao Yizhong as soon as possible, don't be snubbed by you when you pass the door, and delay people's lifelong happiness." ” Empress Ren looked at Xun Guan in surprise, she didn't understand, how could Xun Guan say such a thing.

But what she didn't expect was that Yang Yan actually smiled: "Isn't this a pleasure in suffering, don't worry, I'm not so stingy, and I don't want to be a lonely person, if the husband and wife are separated in the future, and the father and son become enemies, then I, the king, might as well be inappropriate, I should have relied on my ability to buy an industry in Jiangdong, with my talent, up and down the camp, relying on your family and the Bao family, it is not a problem to mix the background of the scholar family, but since I have embarked on the road of hegemony, I am still somewhat sure of the future, I am not Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, nor Emperor Wen of Wei."

Of course, since ancient times, there is no shortage of battles in the palace, good women, after entering the palace for a long time, will also become a snake to rest their hearts, in the final analysis there are two reasons, first, the emperor does not know self-discipline, absurdity and lust, although I can restrain myself, but other emperors may not, in the future I will establish the ancestral system to xiànzhi.

Secondly, the dispute between the princes is related to great interests, you fight for me, the palace is full of murderous opportunities, and even a little carelessness, the country will decline, the rebellion of the eight kings of the Jin family is essentially equivalent to the dispute of the prince, on this point, I already have a preliminary idea. ” Xun Guan was moved in his heart, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in Yang Yan's mouth refers to the prince Liu Ju, who forced Wei Zifu to death, and Emperor Wei Wen refers to Cao Pi who forced Zhen Mi to death, not mentioning merits, just as a woman's position, in fact, it is very disgusting, and now Yang Yan can realize that it makes her feel very relieved.

After a while, Xun Guan asked curiously: "Even if it is as strong as Emperor Qin and Han Wu, it is a mess in the matter of the crown prince, and there is really a way to solve the dispute."

Empress Ren gasped, is this kind of thing Xun Guan can ask Yang Yan's position on the crown prince spread out a little, and it was an uproar, and Xun Guan was easily put on a ill-intentioned hat because of his family background:
