It is said that the people of Yan State abducted all the wives of the Crown Prince of Zhao State to the capital. The Zhang family soon discovered that Wei Rongguan was missing, and were shocked and angry. They did not dare to openly draw a picture to arrest him, so they ordered people to search everywhere with the portrait.
Wei Rongguan arrived in the capital at night. When he entered the city, the watchman was at the fourth watch. Wei Rongguan stuck his head out of the carriage and looked around and asked, "Why aren't the gates of the capital closed?"
A man in Tsing Yi drove a carriage to the road: "It was closed earlier, but it has not been closed in the past two years."
Wei Rongguan cheered: "It's so fun!" Then he pointed outside and said, "Is that a pure oil street lamp?"
"Yes." Tsing Yi said, "This one will be eliminated. The electric lamps in the research institute can last for hundreds of hours, and they are about to be mass-produced."
"What is that?"
"I can't tell. You'll know in a few days." The man in Tsing Yi said, "It's the fourth day. Should you find a place to rest for the night or go to the inn to quarrel with your son?"
"See my son!" Wei Rongguan said, "I gave birth to him at night, so why bother about the fourth or fifth watch? Pull him up from the bed!" The man in Tsing Yi smiled and walked away with a whip.
At the door of the post house, the man in Tsing Yi took out an object from his pocket and showed it to the doorman. The two of them drove straight in and came to the door of Prince Zhao. Just as the man in Tsing Yi was about to knock on the door, Wei Rongguan rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll do it!" Then he took two steps.
He stepped forward and started banging.
Suddenly there was a rush of footsteps in the courtyard, and the courtyard door was opened very quickly. Prince Zhao was fully dressed, obviously not asleep, and he was still holding the door bolt with both hands, standing blankly behind the door. The servants held up glass oil lamps to illuminate the side, and the sky was also bright.
A crescent moon hung over the sky. The two of them looked at each other across the threshold for a long time, holding each other's hands and crying fiercely.
Neither mother nor son cared about being tired, so they sat on the kang and talked. Prince Zhao first asked, "Where has my mother been these past few years? I tried my best to find you."
Wei Rongguan smiled and said, "Guess!"
"Where can I guess!"
Wei Rongguan stroked his head and neck and said, "I have always been in the Sanqing class."
"Ah?!" Prince Zhao said in shock, "I listen to their plays every day! I like all their plays!"
Wei Rongguan said proudly: "I know what kind of drama you like! I'm in the Sanqing class. Although you can't see me, I can see you every time." Before he finished speaking, he burst into tears.
Because the young couple couldn't get along, Jia Cong had entrusted Yu to Qin Keqing. During the day, he went to visit the Forbidden City Museum and stayed at their house at night. Yu had been greatly shocked in the past two days. He never thought that the Forbidden City had become a All the objects in the palace were used for learning, and even the saints were pretended to be. After get off work, He Xiaonan took her to a very good cosmetics shop in the capital. The owner was a gentle young man. , He Xiaonan also said hello to others: "Hello, Mr. Wang Wufu~~ You look good today." The boss chatted with her for a few words. After buying the rouge and going out, He Xiaonan told Mr. Yu, "This boss is the real deal." The saint has now changed his name and become an ordinary person." Yu was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth for a long time.
When Wei Rongguan entered Beijing, Jia Cong sent someone to ask Mrs. Yu if she wanted to meet her real mother-in-law. Mrs. Yu immediately agreed. Everyone in the museum was busy, and the servants brought by Mrs. Yu could not follow her to the Forbidden City, so she had to go out and take the bus by herself.
The carriage went to the post house. When we got there, we saw that her mother-in-law was actually a Taoist nun! Without waiting for Wei Rongguan to explain, Jia Cong rushed to say, "The photographer is leaving later. Do you want to take a group photo?" The three of them then said
Huli Mengden took a photo in the post house, with Taoist Aunt Wei sitting in the middle, Prince Zhao and Mr. Yu standing on the left and right.
A few days later, the people of Handan gathered in front of the street newspaper to read the newspaper. A piece of news was published in the new issue of "Yanjing Weekly". The crown prince of Zhao accidentally contracted a strange disease, which is an allergy in Western medicine. Many imperial doctors
The source of the allergy could not be seen, and the situation was very critical for a time. Fortunately, a female crown surnamed Wei from Baiyun Temple came to visit her. After two doses of medicine, the disease was cured. A photo was also attached, showing that the crown prince and concubine of Zhao State were separated from Taoist Aunt Wei.
about.
Someone was confused and pointed at Daoist Wei and said, "Isn't this the portrait that the steward of the Zhang family took a while ago? Let us identify whether we have seen it before."
The other one immediately said: "You also identified it for me."
There was a person nearby who didn't know about this and was curious to inquire. After hearing this, he said: "Why does the steward of the Zhang family want to show you the portrait of the Taoist nun in the capital? She is still treating the prince's illness."
"I don't know! It's so strange."
There was a Taoist priest wearing a bamboo hat in the crowd who looked at them enigmatically and said, "Although I know this, I can't tell you."
Several people saw that he was a Taoist priest and that the woman surnamed Wei was a Taoist nun. They immediately believed him and gathered around him, cupping their hands and saying, "This Taoist priest is doing well! We are really curious."
The Taoist priest in a bamboo hat waved his hand: "This is Handan, the territory of the Zhang family. You are just ordinary people, so it's better not to know." After saying this, he walked away with a wave of his sleeves. His back was elegant and refined, quite a bit fairy-like.
As soon as this newspaper came out, the Zhang family was shocked. Mr. Zhang was so angry that he smashed half of the things in the house, and Mrs. Zhang could not help but carry it away. The photo was a real provocation! The prince showed off that he was no longer under the control of the Zhang family.
The Yu family showed off that they had pinched the eldest son, mother and son, and they couldn't bear it. But there was nothing they could do about them. The Zhang family and his son discussed for several days, but they didn't come up with a countermeasure. It was just that when they were discussing matters in Prince Zhao's Mansion, Mr. Zhang unexpectedly
What is wrong with Yu Minzhong? Yu Minzhong is at a loss and puzzled.
Zhao State is adjacent to Wei, Zheng, Zhou, Cao and other countries, and the important royal relatives of these four countries all have business in Zhao State. The Zhang family took the portrait of Aunt Wei and asked around, and it didn't take long for the four countries to know. Do the math.
One day, the Zhang family was looking for someone first, and Taoist Aunt Wei was treating Prince Zhao later. This matter suddenly became strange. Two days later, the Taoist priest who had a loose tone and weird words also spread to the four countries. The four countries sent out spies one after another.
Find out about this Taoist priest.
The city of Handan is not big, and soon people from all four countries found out that the Taoist priest in the bamboo hat lived in the Xuanwu Temple in the south of the city. At noon that day, the Taoist priest in the bamboo hat was dozing off under a big willow tree outside the side hall, with the bamboo hat clasped on his face. Someone shouted
: "This Taoist brother sleeps well."
The Taoist priest took off his bamboo hat and saw a Taoist friend in gray robes. He stood up and said, "You are a Taoist friend."
The gray-robed Taoist priest said: "I have been practicing in the Jade Emperor Monastery, and I plan to go to the capital in a few days. I heard that the Taoist monk is coming from the capital, so I came here to inquire about it."
The Taoist priest in a bamboo hat smiled and said: "I see, fellow Taoist, please sit down."
The two of them sat on the ground, and the Taoist priest in a bamboo hat talked about several Taoist temples in the capital in detail. He suddenly mentioned Baiyun Temple. The gray-robed Taoist priest said: "The newspaper of Yan State said that there was a Taoist friend Wei in Baiyun Temple who had extremely good medical skills and cured the crown prince of our country."
He has a strange disease. Does fellow Taoist know this person?"
The Taoist priest in a bamboo hat smiled and said: "How can she know any medical skills! She is an actor. She is not from the Yan country, she is from the Zhao country."
The gray-robed Taoist priest's eyes flashed: "A native of Zhao?"
The Taoist priest in a bamboo hat whispered: "Isn't the biological mother of the crown prince of the Zhao Kingdom a native of the Zhao Kingdom?" The gray-robed Taoist priest was shocked! The Taoist priest in a bamboo hat waved his hands and said, "We outsiders should not get involved in these matters involving the emperor's relatives.
"
The gray-robed Taoist priest was not willing to let him go: "This is not right, fellow Taoist. You might as well not say anything. If you say half of it, keep the other half. This poor Taoist will feel itchy in his heart."
The Taoist priest in a bamboo hat said: "I don't know much about it. I just heard it occasionally when I was doing fortune telling at Li's house a few days ago."
"Which Li family?"
"Of course it's the Li family whose aunt raised a princess." The Taoist priest said, "Which Li family can know about the prince's family?"
"It turns out to be their home."
The gray-robed Taoist priest left with satisfaction.
Two days later, another Taoist priest in yellow robe came. The Taoist priest in a bamboo hat asked him to go to the mother's house of another princess. Zheng Guo was slightly stronger than the other countries, so when Zheng Guoxiu came, the Taoist priest in a bamboo hat asked them to just go there.
Looking for the Zhang family. The four countries then learned the shocking secrets of the Zhao Kingdom from the mouths of the four families' gossiping boys and servants: King Zhao was infertile, and the prince and the three princesses were all brought in by their respective mothers' families.
.
This news was incredible. The four princes suddenly felt that the land in Zhao Kingdom was given to the lonely king by God. Many craftsmen were sent to Zhao Kingdom.
There is a useful eunuch beside King Zhao, Eunuch Wang. He is the best at flattering. He always makes King Zhao smile. He is a affable person, but he is just greedy for money. This man is like a huge hole beside King Zhao. It is difficult not to notice him.
. All the craftsmen from the four countries secretly got in touch with him.
On the other side, Su Cheng and others are controlling water in the Yellow River. Su Cheng knows that he is not even a beginner, and Jia Xu naturally understands Chen Cong's importance better. Therefore, this time everything is listened to by Chen Cong, and Su Cheng and Jia Xu are only responsible for separation.
He assisted him from both the Yan State and the Zhao State. Chen Cong had never done anything so smoothly in his life. The strong men of the Yan State were all smart, and the utensils of the Yan State were extremely convenient and easy to use. The Yan army scrapped unnecessary cannons and shook the mountain.
Yue, even the canned beef from Yan State is delicious. He respects all the people from Yan State, whether they are Mr. Su or ordinary strong men. Although Chen Cong works hard, he feels very happy.
At the end of May, Chen Cong decided to evacuate the people in the four counties. Su Cheng immediately sent people back to Yan State. First, he transferred the Allegro propaganda team, and then worked with Jia Xu to select a resettlement site for the victims, and transferred tents, food, and staff from Yan State
, settled the people in sixteen places. Naturally, these sixteen places were all located on the outskirts of Ping'an County, not far from the four counties, which alarmed twelve counties in Zhao State at once.
It was really lively this time. There were Yan people wearing camouflage uniforms and placards on their backs everywhere. Children in the twelve counties all knew four words: river management and disaster relief. Because these four words were hanging on their backs.
People often give them sweets to eat. The Yanjing Weekly is also busy. Each issue has a dedicated page to report on helping Zhao State to control the river, helping Zhao State to evacuate the victims, and helping Zhao State to resettle the victims. The rows of temporary tents are larger than many people's homes.
The house is sturdier.
It is rare for the people of Zhao State to envy and say: "Yan State has so much food."
The young men and staff of Yan State proudly said: "They are all bought from other countries. Where can Yan State harvest so much grain?"
"Why are you so rich?"
"We have many factories! Factories are the most profitable. All our children in Yan country have to go to school, and the court pays for it. We have all kinds of buses and carriages, both for long and short distances. We have pension insurance, and the court will support us when we get old..."
When these people have free time, they promote the benefits of Yan State. "You can say a thousand words and ten thousand things, but in the end it is our national policy of Yan State that is good."
The soldiers sent by General Guan to follow Jia Xu to control the river were busy for a long time, but they found no clue that the strong men of Yan State were officers and soldiers. On this day, one of the soldiers asked Jia Xu for leave to return to General Guan. Jia Xu asked He said: "You have gone, can you come back?"
The soldier said: "I don't know what my position is, it all depends on the general's wishes."
Jia Xu stroked his beard and said: "These days, I have tested Su Cheng's tone, and I feel that Yan State does not seem to want Zhao State. She said that Yan State's colonies in North America are too big, and I don't know which generation of grandchildren will be born." It can be fully developed within a certain period of time. Other countries despise the small territory, but they are the only ones despising the large territory."
The soldier thought: "This makes sense. It's just that they were too generous to Zhao."
Jia Xu smiled and said, "I've heard about this too. They were not prepared to be so generous. It's all because our prince asked Yan Shenggong, and Yan Shenggong asked Lin Hai, the old minister. Otherwise, it would have been a big deal for them to help us regulate the river. No matter how hard they work, how can they help us provide food tents to accommodate the victims? They are also rich because of the loss, and this money is nothing."
"I see." The soldier nodded and said with a smile, "The prince has visited the capital. Not only has he made a fortune, but Zhao has also gained a lot of benefits. It's really a good deal."
Jia Xu said: "Fortunately, he went at this time, so he won't be able to meet Yan Shenggong sooner or later." The two looked at each other and smiled.
A new issue of "Yanjing Weekly" has come out. The headline on the front page of this issue is: The special envoy of the Nanyang Malay Kingdom arrived in the capital to discuss the federation. The subtitle next to it is: The Yan Kingdom will establish a federal government with the Malay Kingdom. Below is the Malay Kingdom The special envoy took a group photo with King Yan, Regent Jia Cong, Prime Minister Lin Daiyu, Grand Master Zhan Kun, Feng Ziying, Roman Wu Tianyou and other dignitaries.
There are so many people that I can’t see their faces clearly. The article below is very clear. The Malays will join the federation of Yan and become one country. The two countries implement the same set of laws and use the same currency. The people of the two countries enjoy the same benefits. , such as pension insurance. After the federation, the special envoys sent by Yan State to various countries also represented Malay. Since the two countries became one country, tariffs were naturally canceled. There are many details like this. After that, "Yanjing Weekly" published four consecutive A special issue dedicated to explaining to the people what the Federation is.
Reporters must interview important officials. One of them is an interview with Prince Regent Jia Cong. Jia Cong smiled and said: "You have so many book bags in your newspaper. Can readers understand it? This matter is actually very simple. It is for Malay people to read. The country of Yan is so good that I envy it so much that I am willing to merge into one country with the country of Yan."
The reporter asked: "But does it mean to be a vassal?"
"No." Jia Cong said, "The federation is like two people getting married and forming a new family. Both countries are equal from officials to common people, and there is no such thing as one country above the other. Remember, in the future, the relationship between Malay and Malay The Yan State is just one family."
The reporter asked: "Did our Yan country make a profit or a loss?"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Since we are a family, why should we talk about profits and losses? Talking about money hurts feelings." He laughed with the reporter for a while and then said, "Although Malay is poorer, Yan needs to spend some money at first. We must use our energy to help them; that country is rich in tourism resources, animal and plant resources, and controls the Strait of Malacca. It is a waterway of great strategic significance and will be of great use after the rise of global trade. In the long run, Yan State is definitely Made a profit."
