Riding the Pheonix Chapter 320: Evening party

Feng Yidao: "I can't tell you exactly. I just heard a few words at a banquet in the capital in the early years. It was said that Concubine Pei loved him like a son. She was not like a nephew, but she was clearly her own son. Several princes were not on good terms with him. , and it’s also because the Holy Spirit has too much trust in him.”

The middle-aged scholar asked curiously: "If it is really Concubine Pei's biological son, why is it raised in the Bolinghou Mansion?"

"So, this matter cannot be explained clearly. Some people say that Concubine Pei had a romantic relationship with the Holy Emperor long before she entered the palace, so..." Feng Yi shook his head, "There are many rumors even among nobles. Very hard to say how credible this is."

The middle-aged scribe sighed: "It will be difficult for adults to handle such a living Bodhisattva!"

Feng Yi nodded: "It doesn't matter if the pastoral supervisor is not under the control of the county. It's just that his wanton acquisitions may cause turmoil."

"It's hard for Mr. Feng..."

When the moon reaches the zenith, the chat ends.

The middle-aged scribe returned to the guest house to wash up, sent away the servants, hung a lantern under the eaves, and sat at the table with his eyes closed to meditate.

Not long after, there was a slight knock on the door.

"Come in."

A strong servant in civilian clothes pushed open the door and entered.

"Did you find out anything?" The strong servant sat across from him with a rough voice.

The middle-aged scribe opened his eyes and said: "I found a new fat sheep, I suggest changing the target."

The strong servant looked at him suspiciously: "Why change the target? We finally sneaked into the county government and spent two months checking the locations. Now that we change the target, wouldn't these two months be in vain?"

"So what if it's in vain?" the middle-aged scribe said coldly, "Does the work we do count as time? If we fail, we will waste time and energy, and we may even lose our lives. If we succeed, we will eat all we can. If you don’t even have this awareness, change your career as soon as possible!”

He was so forceful that the strong servant laughed twice and lowered his body: "Sir, don't be angry. After all, you have spent a lot of energy here, so I wanted to ask."

The middle-aged scribe stared at him twice and softened his tone: "Occupying the county government is certainly a good idea, but it is also difficult to imitate a county magistrate. After all, you have to go to Shangguan regularly. I found one today. It’s an excellent target. It’s much easier to imitate him, and the benefits are countless times greater.”

"Who are you talking about, sir?" The strong servant's eyes shone, "Is he fatter than the county government?"

The middle-aged scribe sneered: "How fat can a county government be? A county magistrate only gets a small salary. Gaotang is so poor that even if he empties out his granaries, he can only eat for three to five months. The person I'm talking about, Not only is he richer than the county government, he can easily buy the entire Gaotang County with his wealth."

The servant Zhuang was very excited when he heard this: "Which big family is it?"

"It's not a big family." The middle-aged scribe said lightly, "It's the new pastor of the racecourse."

Zhuang Pu has heard about this, but he has doubts about it: "Sir, I heard that that person comes from a family of military commanders, and he has many generals with him. Are we afraid that we won't be able to eat them?"

"Fat sheep are naturally not easy to eat." The middle-aged scribe said slowly, "But if we eat it, we might not have to do this job of licking blood from the edge of a knife for the rest of our lives."

This sentence convinced the strong servant. He thought about it and finally said: "Then send someone to explore the road first and see if it is easy to start there."

The middle-aged scribe lightly knocked on the table and said: "No one else is needed, just you. I heard that they not only collect all kinds of goods, but also recruit strong laborers. Anyway, the county government has already figured out everything. We have to stay. If it is feasible there, we will move there."

The strong servant thought for a while and agreed: "Okay, I believe sir, I will go to the racecourse tomorrow."

……

Mingwei sat on the corridor and looked at the crowd of people coming all the way.

Most of these are mountain people from the northwest, carrying baskets and pushing carts, coming here.

Ah Xuan set aside a stable for receiving goods.

"Master, do you want to take this chicken?" a mountain man in shabby clothes asked cautiously.

The famous general took one look and said: "As long as the chickens are not sick or dead, we will accept them and weigh them over there."

After passing the scale, I heard the official say: "A live chicken costs fifty cents. The charging price is 30% more, and we will pay another 10% for shipping, which is seventy cents. Five live chickens, a total of three hundred and fifty cents." Ten coins, give me the money!"

Immediately, another official counted out the money and handed it to him.

The mountain people were very happy and thanked them repeatedly.

If he sells these five chickens in the county town, the price will inevitably be lowered and he will have to pay taxes. Two hundred cash is good. Now that I have an extra 150 yuan, I can buy some decent clothes for my family.

A few more mountaineers came over with carts filled with some stones, which they also happily accepted.

Ning Xiu walked over with his hands in his sleeves unsteadily and sat on the porch.

"After building the fortress, what are you going to do?"

Mingwei turned around and saw him, slightly surprised: "Sir?"

Ning Xiu said calmly: "If you want to open up another world, you must have corresponding strength. Even if you build a castle, how can you compete with the Northwest Army?"

Mingwei was a little surprised when he asked this question.

She thought that Ning Xiu was the one who least wanted to rebel. But the question he is asking now is the key.

So, is he really seriously thinking about rebellion?

It's really gratifying.

"Sir, your concerns are reasonable."

"What about the solution?"

Ming Wei looked at the crowd with a smile: "There is an opportunity."

Ning Xiu’s eyes flickered: “What time?”

Mingwei pondered. What should she say? In less than two years, the Western Wei Dynasty would be established on the other side of the mountain. Therefore, this year is very critical, and there will be a war in the northwest. As long as the war breaks out, they can take advantage of the chaos and rise up.

"Do you know who is on the other side of the mountain?"

Ning Xiu said: "Hu people."

"To be precise, it's the Eight Tribes of Beihu." Mingwei said, "In the past few years, the Eight Tribes of Beihu have been attacking each other, and now they're almost done. I believe it won't be long before they unite and set their sights on each other. Throw it to the south."

"So there will be war?"

Mingwei nodded slowly.

Ning Xiu’s eyes turned cold: “Why didn’t you warn the court?”

Do you really suspect that she is using the war for personal gain? Ming Wei smiled: "As early as in Xuandu Temple, I used the stars to warn the Holy One. This is the only thing I can do about such a big thing."

Ning Xiu calmed down: "So, the Northwest Army is already prepared?"

"I can't say that. ~IndoMTL.com~ Mingwei sighed, "You know, words are spoken lightly. ”

Ning Xiu is silent.

"So, this is not only our opportunity, but also to solve the crisis in Daqi. The two are not contradictory. We don't have much time. Within one year, we must have considerable conditions. Otherwise, we will only I can watch tragedy happen."

Ning Xiu was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "Mr. Fu said that you are the best at brainwashing, and it is true."

Then he left calmly.

Mingwei thought for a while. Does this mean you were persuaded by her?
