Yang Zhan took Hami, Zhang Huangyan blocked Tsarist Russia, Xia Wanchun and Yan Yingyuan led a large army to the city of Hami.

Here they will march forward, separate the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from the Junggar Khanate further west, and defeat them one by one. The vast land and sparsely populated western Mo, with a total population of only one million. It is a fatal place to occupy such a large land. Xia Wanchun said it right, occupying any city is not important, and only killing the enemy's troops is a real victory.

The well-trained Jingbei Army marched was common for them. They walked on the yellow sand and faced the dust, and marched in an orderly manner in a unit of 100,000.

Xia Wanchun knew clearly what he was doing. As long as His Majesty’s plan was realized, the desert that had harmed the Central Plains dynasty for thousands of years would become a Great Wall that did not require stone bricks.

By then, the people on the border will never be the targets of slaughter or plunder. The Hu people who suffered the Central Plains will also become loyal soldiers of the empire and guard the border. Those Mongolian children who read and read in the school are the people and soldiers of the future Hua Dynasty.

The merits are in the present and the future. How glorious is it to be able to participate in such a feat. Thinking of this, Xia Wanchun felt a little excited. He looked up at the rising sun in the desert and felt his limbs full of strength.

The border was well fought, but the court had problems. The supplies transported to the front line were almost emptying out the food in the national treasury.

Any emerging factory is a plunder of labor, pulling the young and strong people of the empire from the farmland to the factory.

"The south of the Yangtze River was originally a land of fish and rice. The grain produced every year feeds most of the military and civilians, but the food received this year is not as much as last year. The drought in the north continues to subside. Not to mention paying it to the treasury, we have to take out grain to provide disaster relief.

Most of the taxes in Jiangnan received were white money, but there was not much food. If this continued, I don’t know what to do to support the million-dollar army in the west of the Mo.

The most hateful one is Yuan Jixian from Huguang. The court has repeatedly told him to encourage farming and sericulture, but he turned a blind eye to it. He took the lead in setting up a factory based on his achievements during the Northern Expedition. He heard that in order for the factory in Huguang to win more orders for wheel manufacturing, the dignified governor personally planned with a group of merchants. He despised the six ministries and the imperial court... "

Hou Xuanyan was so annoyed when he heard Chen Mingyu's complaints, but this was also a problem that must be solved. Should the factory be disbanded and the workers go back to farm? This is a naked regression, and it seems that the external expansion is going to be accelerated.

"Jingnan Province has vast land and fertile fields suitable for rice growth. Didn't I ask them to persuade farmers and tribes? The group of educational officials have also submitted a statement and talked about their political achievements. My dear, don't worry, the food shortage is only temporary. Soon after, Nanyang, Japan and North Korea are our granaries. Since you have money, just buy it, but you are still afraid that you can't have enough food? This year is a special difficult period. The court needs to tighten your belt, live a good life, and save some effort to survive this year."

Chen Mingyu's face turned purple with anger, and he stood up and said, "Your Majesty! The price of grain in Jinling has risen to one tael of silver and two stones. If this continues, the people will not even be able to eat. How can they talk about civil and military achievements?"

Hou Xuanyan said patiently: "As far as I know, the monthly rewards of the factory workers are not low, much higher than the original agricultural income. Moreover, the reason for the high grain prices is not that the grain merchants raise the price of grain, but that the price is high when they collect grain. In this way, the income of the people who farm has also increased. I have begun to formulate commercial laws. As long as there are no black-hearted grain merchants, high grain prices are not a bad thing."

"I hope Your Majesty will do it yourself..."

----

In the Imperial Garden, Hou Xuanyan looked ugly and cursed along the way. The eunuch and palace maid who accompanied him lowered his head and did not dare to touch his bad head.

"Old guy, old stubborn, can't explain it clearly, I'm so angry!"

Hou Xuanyan lowered his head and sulked, leaving quickly and anxiously, suddenly feeling soft in front of him, and he heard a cry.

A girl was knocked to the ground, with petals all over the ground, red and yellow.

"Your Majesty forgive me."

Hou Xuan Yan sniffed it, not knowing whether it was the fragrance of flowers or the fragrance of people, but most of the anger in his heart went away, and he whispered: "Raise your head."

The girl slowly looked up, and Hou Xuanyan felt that she looked very familiar. Her pretty face was mixed with innocence and charm. Perhaps because of her frightened, her little face was flushed, her breasts were flushed, and her plump lips opened and closed slightly.

Hou Xuanyan's throat moved, swallowed, and asked, "Minmin, why is it you? Come to the palace to see your sister?"

After Bian Saisai entered the palace from the palace, Bian Min had no status and could not follow him. She lived outside. Today, she went to the palace to visit her sister and learned how to make rouge. The heads of the courtesans on the Qinhuai River are all fashion and makeup masters of this era, and all the wives and ladies of wealthy families use their formulas. Bian Saisai is one of the top figures, and can be said to be a figure standing at the peak of Dahua fashion.

Bian Saisai was drinking with the queen because she was used to coaxing people and had the best skills of the girl's family, so she was very happy in the harem. So she told her sister to go to the imperial garden to pick petals and wait for her to come back to teach her.

Bian Min bent down and knelt on the ground with a buttock. It was pitiful. Of course, Hou Xuanyan couldn't stand such an upright person. He immediately bent down and helped him up with a smile, and said, "The ground is cold, I'm kneeling and doing something, get up quickly."

Taking the opportunity to stroke her plump waist, Hou Xuanyan was a little surprised. The thin and weak little girl had no touch of thin ribs and hard muscles in her hands. Her fingertips seemed to pinch into a ball of smooth and delicate top-quality crispy cheese, and her palms were filled with plump flesh.

What a liar, I really want to expose her...

Feeling the big hand of his brother-in-law, Bian Min trembled with a red face, her eyes were so charming, and her breathing became more rapid.

When Hou Xuanyan heard this voice, he knew he was a virgin. He smiled and teased her, "How old is Xiao Min'er? Have you ever agreed to a family in-laws?"

Bian Min had long admired her brother-in-law, thinking that this was not a God-given opportunity, and said boldly: "Min'er is fourteen and has not been married yet..."

The eunuchs and palace maids behind him slipped away at some point. Hou Xuanyan sat on the railing and said with a smile: "Don't be so reserved. When you go to the palace, you will be like your own home. You are pitiful outside the palace and have no relatives and friends. Why don't you move to the palace?"

Bian Min's cheeks were flushed, but her eyes were not in a evasive way. She looked back at him with a gaze, her eyes waving: "Min'er has no talent, she can only sing a song and dance, and she doesn't know what to do after entering the palace."

"You know that there was a Zhao Hede in the Han Dynasty? I have loved watching dances and listening to songs recently..."
