The Golden Age Chapter 815: Put your heart on your stomach

There was a trace of panic in the eyes of Musk Moon, but it was fleeting, and he picked up the chopsticks again and said calmly: "I use the special gouache made by the court, and it's not surprising that I will reward her with some gouache."

"So that's it." Qin Xiao nodded and murmured, "I almost thought it was a princess last night...!" He stopped immediately.

She Yue looked at him coldly, and said coldly: "You are really fantastic."

Qin Xiao hurriedly smiled and said: "The princess forgive the sin, but the minister has failed to say something."

"Forgive you for not having that guts." The princess said lightly: "If it is really this palace, would you dare to touch this palace?"

Qin Xiao also picked up the chopsticks and said, "If the princess dared to enter the house, why would the minister dare not?"

"Qin Xiao, you are so bold."

"The courage of the young minister is not small." Qin Xiao clamped a piece and didn't know what kind of dish, and put it into his mouth: "If you are timid, I won't dare to go to Hangzhou and Anxinghou to grab silver. ."

The princess put down her chopsticks and sneered: "In that case, do you really have any doubts about this palace?"

"The minister never meant to blaspheme the princess." Qin Xiao immediately said: "Isn't this the princess's own analogy?"

The princess stared at Qin Xiao's eyes and said: "The palace is really going to enter your room, what will you do?"

"No, no." Qin Xiao waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "The minister has the courage, and he doesn't dare to behave against the princess. Just now, the minister was talking nonsense. The princess must not be angry."

The princess disdainfully smiled and said: "I thought you were really brave, you were just a coward."

"Coward?" Qin Xiao lowered his face and said, "Princess, Shike can not be humiliated. If you want to say that, I am not happy. If you really have the courage, enter my house tonight, and I will have the courage. .....!" At this point, I didn't continue.

Shu Yue looked at Qin Xiaodao with an aggressive look: "How about you have the courage?"

"Since the princess assumes that she dares to enter the house, the minister may wish to assume." Qin Xiao also looked at the princess's charming eyes, and did not evade, even moved forward: "If there is a woman like a princess in the middle of the night. When you enter the house, even if the king of heaven comes, I will not let you go."

Musk Yue wanted to restrain Qin Xiao with aggressive gaze, but Qin Xiao's gaze was even more aggressive than hers. There was a trace of panic in the eyes of the princess who had always been strategizing, avoiding her eyes and said: " I won’t tell you these silly things."

"Actually, I think these words are not boring." Qin Xiao answered.

Shu Yue glared at him, and then said: "What you said to you yesterday, did you remember it in your heart?"

Qin Xiao nodded and said, "I dare not forget the princess's instructions."

"Half of the seven surnames in the south of the Yangtze River were condemned, and the remaining ones are also badly injured." She Yue thought for a moment, and then said: "If you want to recruit a new army, the military resources must be taken from the hands of the family in the south. The next few companies actually know that they are at the end of their lives, and it is fortunate to be able to save their lives. Therefore, this time Lin Hong raised funds, the rest of these companies are definitely going to spend their wealth to surrender their money and collect three million. Two silvers are not a difficult task." With a light sigh, they said, "They actually have no other choice. Either hand over the silver to save their lives, or they have no money."

Qin Xiao nodded slightly and said: "The Qian family in Suzhou rebelled, regardless of whether the other companies actively participated in this matter, they are inseparable. The seven families of Jiangnan have been entrenched in Jiangnan for a hundred years, and these seven families have moved forward and retreated together and supported each other. Only then has their rich and foe country, blessings and hardships, and the Qian family suffering, of course they will not be better." After a pause, he continued: "Princess

When An Xinghou arrested the gentry in Hangzhou, he confiscated a lot of family property. As far as I know, they are now piled up in a warehouse in the west of the city. They have been heavily guarded, and I have sent people to keep watching. When Qiao Ruixin left, he didn't dare to call the warehouse. "

"What are you going to do?"

"Since many gentry have been overturned and there is no crime of rebellion, of course, those family wealth must be returned in full." Qin Xiao said: "I also inquired about the confiscation of family wealth, which was registered when it was put into the warehouse. The registered account book is also at the warehouse. Originally, I was going to discuss with An Xinghou to return the wealth of those people, but before I could tell, An Xinghou was killed." After a pause, he said: "The princess is right here. By the way, I wonder if this matter can be dealt with as soon as possible?"

Sk Yue said slightly: "Just do what you want. Go back to the warehouse and say what I meant. The warehouse will be taken over by you. After you get the account books, you will return them as many as you want. ."

"The princess is wise." Qin Xiao said with a smile: "If Hangzhou gentry knew the princess was like this, they would certainly be grateful for the princess's great kindness."

"Don't think I don't know your thoughts." Musky gave Qin Xiao a white look, calming and charming and charming: "You are worried that all these assets will be transported back to Kyoto, and then the Hangzhou gentry will hold it. No silver, once you recruit a new army, your military resources will be lost."

Qin Xiao said with a smile: "The princess is very wise. I can't hide the princess from my careful thoughts."

"I have to do this as soon as possible." She Yue thought for a while, and then said: "These belongings have not been returned, and there will be variables at any time. You should do this after you have eaten, and let them transfer the belongings as soon as possible. They will all take them back, and these assets will return to them, and the court will not be able to get them back directly from them, and they can still stay in Hangzhou."

"Most of the belongings can be taken away, but some families have been killed by An Xinghou and have not been claimed by the original owner." Qin Xiao said softly: "Including the Lin family, there are a large number of antique calligraphy and paintings of gold and silver. Being confiscated, as far as I know, the cash confiscated is not too much. But there are many treasures."

"Their money is used to purchase properties and business, so naturally there will not be too much cash on hand." The princess said: "Speaking of the Lin family, you must try to keep this Lin Hong. Lin Hong raised three million taels of silver. If you send it to Kyoto at that time, you can also tell the saint that Lin Hong has contributed a lot. For the sake of money, the saint should be able to open the net. If you save Lin Hong, you will save Baofenglong. You have Baofenglong. You will not have a big problem in recruiting the new army’s resources. This time you rescued him from the Shence Army. He is still grateful to you. You only have to promise to protect Lin’s family. , He will naturally do his best to you in the future."

Qin Xiao was a little surprised.

Baofenglong is Neiku’s largest source of financial resources, and has always been in the hands of She Yue. Logically speaking, with such a large financial source, it is impossible for She Yue to easily get someone else's finger. But listen to She Yue at this time. The words seemed to hand Baofenglong into his own hands.

Without Baofenglong, it would be a big disadvantage to Musk Moon's position.

"Princess, Lin Hong is yours, how can she do her best to me?" Qin Xiao frowned, "I still don't understand what you mean?"

"You should understand." She Yue sighed faintly: "An Xinghou was killed, do you know who is the worst for you?"

"Naturally belongs to Xiahou's family." Qin Xiao said without hesitation: "He is the heir cultivated by the prime minister, and now the heir is gone. His brother Huaiyang Hou is just a dude, so stupid. Taking up the post, An Xinghou’s death was almost a fatal blow to Xiahou’s family."

A faint smile appeared at the corners of She Yue’s lips, and said: "Everyone understands this truth. Of course, Xiahou’s family was injured, and the future of this palace will not be very easy."

"What does the princess mean?"

"Although the turmoil in Suzhou has been calmed down, the saint will definitely no longer trust me, and even has developed a heart of jealousy towards me." She Yue said in a low voice, "If An Xinghou is still alive, even if the saint is jealous For me, I will remain silent. After all, there is no one in the Central Government except me who can check and balance Xiahou's family. She wants to cultivate new power to check and balance Xiahou, and she will not be able to do it in three or two years. But An Xing is waiting to die. , Xiahou’s family was hit hard, so the saint would never allow me to continue to cultivate power."

Qin Xiao was puzzled for a while, and asked: "Why is this?"

"You should know that apart from me and Changning, the saint has no other heirs, let alone a prince." Sheyue's lips curled up with a chill: "She was born in the Xiahou family and has been on the throne for almost 20 years, but she didn't even have a crown prince. This is said to be extremely rare in all dynasties."

Qin Xiao nodded slightly, Datang has no crown prince, which is indeed very strange.

"Do you know why the officials of North Korea and China formed two parties?" She Yue looked at Qin Xiao said: "Some people privately refer to the two parties of North Korea and China as the Princess Party and the State Party, and some families even join the two parties separately. On the bright surface, water and fire are incompatible."

Qin Xiao understood in an instant: "They are called scattered betting."

"Yes." Musk smiled contemptuously: "Because the saint has not established the crown prince, many people think that the saint is likely to choose a descendant from the Xiahou family to change their surnames, and become the royal family of Li. You can succeed to the throne in a justifiable way."

"It's not called righteousness." Qin Xiao smiled faintly: "If the saint really does this, I am afraid that countless people in the world will oppose it."

"Back when she became the Empress, she was shocked. How many people opposed them and were not all executed by her. In the end, she sat on the throne for almost 20 years." Musk said calmly: "For her, the rule is Used to break, there is nothing she dare not do."

Qin Xiao thought that Sheyue’s words were good. As a queen, he eventually became the emperor over the world. Then the adoption of a male from Xiahou's family into the Li family does not seem to be a big deal for the saint. .

"So some people thought that Xiahouning might eventually be established as the crown prince, so they took refuge in Xiahou's house, and when Xiahouning really became the emperor one day, these people would naturally become officials and nobles and continue to live a life of fine clothes and food. "Shu Yue said slowly: "And some other people, a saint, will not be so against the way of heaven, and will eventually choose an heir from the blood of Li Tang, and the only heir of the blood of Li Tang seems to be me."

Qin Xiao nodded and said nothing.

She Yue picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and continued: "Xiahouning is dead. The officials who took refuge in Xiahou’s house are naturally panicked. They might think that since Xiahouning who fought for the crown prince is dead, then The only one who can inherit the throne should be this palace. No matter what these people think in their hearts, the position of the Xiahou family will naturally not be as stable as before."

Qin Xiao understood, with a serious expression: "Xiahouning is dead. If the saint wants to make the princess the prince, sooner or later he will clear the thorns on the princess road, then Xiahou's family will naturally be suppressed, and the officials worry about being involved. , Will naturally give birth to the heart of both ends of the first rat, and will no longer be loyal to Xiahou’s family."

"You can see this, and you are considered smart." She Yue smiled lightly: "In the eyes of Chaozhong Baiguan, one is the princess of the saint, the other is her family, no matter which side she favors Or suppressing whichever side is reasonable." After a pause, he laughed at herself: "Only I understand that our emperor doesn’t really care about other things in her heart. All she cares about is her own throne. Over the past ten years, she has been supporting me. , Is to use me to counterbalance Xiahou. Now that Xiahou is hit hard by Xiahouning’s death, how can she allow me to be stronger than the other party?"
