Before her right ear could answer, she shook her head again and said, "Impossible, the first time he saw me Zhang Xinpi, how could he be suspicious out of thin air?"
Unless Cheng Muyou told him about me," Speaking of this, she looked at the courtyard wall in front of her angrily, "This person, really can't be trusted, he said that he kept a secret for me, and he told others in a blink of an eye." ” The right ear reminded on one side, "Cheng Dexuan is his father after all, and in terms of identity and intimacy, he is much more important than us after all." ” Yan Niang rolled her eyes and lay down on the rocking chair again, "Yes, it seems that I still have to be wary of him in the future, fortunately, he doesn't know my true identity, otherwise, my plan will not be in vain." ” The right ear nodded, and after a while, he leaned over and asked, "Girl, there is one thing I still don't understand, why the imperial court attaches so much importance to these salt ships, and has to send officials down to supervise them?"
” Yan Niang poked his eyebrows, "You don't understand this, don't look at this salt is just a small grain, it doesn't look amazing, but it is related to people's livelihood, so it can only be sold like an official, and the salt profits will be attributed to the locality."
However, salt is highly profitable, and it is a necessity for people's lives, so many people will focus on this small grain of salt, hoping to get a share of this huge profit. ” These words made his right ear fall into a fog, and after a while, Mu Ran said three words, "I don't understand." ” Yan Niang shook her head and smiled, "It's okay if you don't understand, but do you know about the case of burning the salt ship sixteen years ago?"
If it hadn't been for that, I don't think the court would have been so nervous about these salt ships today. ” Hearing her say this, the right ear came to the spirit, "Recently, those old men and old ladies in the alley often talk about this matter, they say that what kind of fire is burning the salt ship, not that it is more appropriate to burn the ship, it is said that the wind was strong that day, for fear that the ship will be blown away, so the ships are connected together with anchor chains, so there is such a big disaster," Speaking of this, he scratched his head, "At that time, the girl should also be an official in the court, and her understanding of this matter must be much clearer than theirs, so let's talk about it." ” Yan Niang shook her head slowly, "That year, Zhao Zeping and I went to Youzhou with the first emperor, and all the affairs in the court were handed over to the King of Jin.
I remember that after the first emperor learned that more than 1,000 lives had been buried in the canal, he was so angry that he did not sleep for several nights, and later dismissed the king of Jin from his official position, and it was not until a few years later that he was restored to his position. ” The right ear suddenly realized, "King Jin is the current emperor Lao'er, he was dismissed because of the salt ship, so he only attaches so much importance to the salt ship docking." ” Yan Niang glanced at it, "Do you think he regrets dying for so many lives?"
You are wrong, he is a person, the most important thing is his image and reputation among the people, because the prestige of the first emperor is very high, he compares with him everywhere, for fear that he will lose to his brother, so this time the salt ship docked, he will make full efforts to win back a game, and take this opportunity to erase the stain of the past. ” The right ear shook his head, "In this way, it is not easy to be an emperor, there are so many things to think about every day, if you were me, your hair would have already fallen out." ” Yan Niang ignored him, she looked at the blue sky, and her thoughts returned to the midnight sixteen years ago, the sky that night was as clear as today, dotted with stars, and the entire sky dome was like a big shimmering silver cover, even the Milky Way could be seen clearly.
She sat on the observatory, holding a small iron hammer, and banged on a pile of broken copper and iron, and her always cold body was sweating, and her forehead was shining.
Because she was so focused, she didn't even notice that Zhao Lang walked behind her, until a silk handkerchief stretched out beside her face, she came back to her senses, and turned around in surprise and joy and shouted, "Brother." ” Zhao Lang smiled at her, lifted his robe and sat next to him without care, and asked, "When will your armillary sphere be completed?"
” She wiped her sweat with a handkerchief, but instead of answering his words, she asked, "Brother, are you in a better mood?"
” Zhao Lang glanced at her, "I ask you, when will this armillary sphere be built, and I am still waiting to use it." ” "What do you do with it?"
Zhao Lang smiled faintly, but there was a trace of sadness between his eyebrows, "I read the history books, I know that the Ying Zheng has been in the past seven years, and in a year, the stars have appeared four times in the east, the north, and the west.
Speaking of this, he looked at her, "I am thinking, there must be stars in the sky now, and they must all be complaining about me, so the resentment is difficult to disperse, and it turns into a long star and flows in the sky." ” She was shocked, "Your Majesty, how can you compare yourself to a tyrant, the emperor is benevolent, and all the people in the world are bathed in the emperor's grace" Zhao Lang shook his head and waved his hand, not letting her say any more, "Renzheng?
So many people died because of me, and I can no longer afford to be a Ming Jun.
After speaking, he turned his head to look at her, and there were shining tears in his eyes, "Brother Xian, it is said that after death, people should meet the dead in the underworld, but if it really comes to that day, I don't know how to face them.
If so, it would be better for me to dissipate my soul and wander among the mountains and rivers of the Great Song Dynasty."
Hearing this, she was so frightened that her face turned white, "My brother is the body of a true dragon, and he enjoys thousands of years of happiness, how can he curse himself with white teeth so empty." ” Zhao Lang smiled from the bottom of his heart this time, "What is the body of a true dragon, ten thousand years of longevity, it's just nonsense for others, how can you believe this."
Brother Xian, people will eventually die, when that day comes, don't be too sad, after sending me on the last journey, you will return to the outside of the Saiwai, fresh clothes and angry horses, see the flowers in the world, don't be bound by the palace wall by state affairs. ” This sentence not only did not comfort her, but aroused the anger in her heart, so she forgot the rules that were easy to learn, stood up suddenly, and raised her voice, "I will follow you wherever you go, heaven and earth, I will definitely find you back, and I will never let you go alone." ” He stopped talking, and after a long time, he finally smiled at her and said softly, "Fool, after so many years of cultivation in vain, you are still frizzy like a child." ” She hurriedly said, "Promise me quickly, you will never say this about yourself again in the future, the tyrant has a short life, and the elder brother is a benevolent monarch, and he will be able to live a long life of 100 years, and his life will be the same as that of the sky." ” He was helpless, "I promise you, you can sit quietly now, lower your voice a little, and keep arguing, and the forbidden army will be brought over." ” "Girl, girl," the voice in the right ear came from the side, "what's wrong with you?"
I said my hair was going to fall out, why didn't you say a word?
” Yan Niang rubbed the top of its furry head a few times, "You, if you become the emperor, a few body hairs will not be enough for you to lose." ”
