The Leisurely Countryside of the Farmer’s Daughter-in-law - Chapter 819
Chapter 819 I just cry, make trouble and hang myself
Many times, the development of things is always unexpected, and it is too fast for people to recover.
When I came back to my senses, it was useless to try to do something.
And Qi Xiang’s worries were soon fulfilled.
The second year, that is, the first year of Changxing.
The first year of Changxing, July.
At noon on a hot day, the fire is burning.
In the Hall of Qinzheng, cool air overflowed from the ice basin next to it, making the people in the hall feel cool and comfortable, and also felt the double sky of ice and fire inside and outside the hall.
After nearly a year, after repeated discussions between the new emperor and the powerful ministers, the final decision was quickly drafted into an imperial decree and announced to the world:
The vassal kings of the Daying Dynasty were not allowed to enter Beijing without purpose, and the princes who temporarily lived in the capital had to leave Beijing and return to their fiefdoms as soon as possible.
There are even several princes’ fiefdoms, which changed the new emperor from a rich place to a desolate place.
For example, Lord Mu, was replaced by the entire territory of Liangzhou in the desolate northwest.
Originally the prince’s fiefdom was a county, but this time it was replaced by a state capital for King Mu, which was dubbed as compensation for exchanging a rich land for a barren land.
Tan Anjun really wanted to swear and make up for MMP.
When the court meeting is held again, the opposition is basically the royal family. The powerful officials and nobles will not touch the new emperor’s bad luck if they do not involve their own interests.
Powerful ministers and honorable courtiers, how can they gain a firm foothold in the court?
First rely on one’s own ability, and ability can control the power in hand.
Secondly, by trying to figure out the holy will, you can guess His Majesty’s mind, and your official career will be invincible and invincible.
What’s more, in the court, often the west wind overwhelms the east wind, or the east wind overwhelms the west wind, and the royal family is suppressed.
Being ministers in the same dynasty, they can be said to have lost a rival to fight against the court, and also lost a overlord to divide up rights.
When the news was sent back to the border, Tan Anjun was furious, his previous indifference and indifference were successfully broken, and he slammed his palm on the table.
The poor table cracked immediately, and it was considered to be the end of its life.
He sneered coldly and contemptuously: “He is looking for his own death. In the past, the court was three-legged and restrained each other. It was difficult for all parties to become powerful, and the power was still balanced. But he is as stupid as a pig and pretends to be smart. Now he personally kills this Once the situation is broken, isn’t this breaking his own arm? I don’t know who helped him with the bad idea?”
Yang Lan’er looked solemn: “We don’t care how he dies, but the imperial decree will arrive soon, what are you going to do?”
“If you don’t dare to risk the disgrace of the world to seek rebellion, you can only go to Liangzhou Mansion according to his wishes, and manage the fief honestly.” Tan Anjun pulled her and sat on his long lap, resting her head On her shoulder, she sighed, and said guiltily: “It’s just that from now on, you mother and son will suffer hardships with me.”
Yang Lan’er breathed a sigh of relief, she was really afraid that he would go into a dead end and swear to the death, “Don’t say that, we are a family, what does a family do? Isn’t it to share happiness and adversity?”
“It’s good to have you.” Tan Anjun’s gloomy complexion finally turned pale.
Yang Lan’er nodded heavily: “Of course, having us is your greatest blessing. When the children grow up, we can help you solve your problems.”
Tan Anjun was in a better mood for Yang Lan’er’s stinky fart, and hummed lightly as an admission.
Yang Lan’er saw that he had turned a corner emotionally, so she continued, “I think it’s not all a bad thing for us to be dispatched to Liangzhou Prefecture.”
“How to say?”
“At least the biggest advantage is that the area of the fief is countless times larger.” Yang Lan’er blinked at him.
Tan Anjun’s mouth twitched lightly: “The area is large, but the population has decreased by nearly half, and most of them are barren and inhabited deserts, with drought and little rain. What’s the use of it?”
Apart from sending more troops to guard the border, he can’t think of any other benefits?
After all, he is a little bit uneasy after all!
Yang Lan’er hummed unconvinced: “As far as I know, there is a lot of arable land, but the small population is a bit difficult.”
However, everything is not difficult to handle on the basis of economic recovery.
Everything can only be said slowly.
The couple were discussing slowly when there was a knock on the study door.
“Master, madam, General Qi is visiting.” Xiao Liu’s voice came from outside the door.
“Go and bring him here.” Tan Anjun wondered why this kid came here? I always like to run to his house if I have nothing to do.
Yang Lan’er understood a bit: “Master, do you think he has also received the news?”
“Well, the possibility is very high, that kid’s information network is not weaker than mine.”
When the couple mentioned someone, they didn’t have to wait long before someone quickly entered the study.
As soon as Qi Xiang entered the door, he saw the chair next to him and the cup of tea on the table next to him, and smiled: “You two are really considerate.”
As he spoke, he strode over to sit down, took a sip of tea that was just warm enough to drink, and moistened his throat.
Tan Anjun was in a bad mood today, and he didn’t have a good attitude towards him, but his face was still as cold as usual: “What’s the matter with General Qi coming here today?”
Qi Xiang observed the expressions of the couple, trying to see something, but unfortunately, the expression management of the couple was in place, and he didn’t see anything.
Seeing him sizing them up so presumptuously, Tan Anjun’s face darkened immediately, and he coughed heavily as a warning.
Qi Xiang rolled her eyes, took a sip of tea with her eyes closed and her eyebrows lowered, and asked directly: “You should have received news from the capital. The new emperor’s operation is as fierce as a tiger this time. There are more members of the royal family who are fighting for reason and admonishing each other bluntly, but the effect is not great. The new emperor is headstrong, does not listen to any opinions, and still does his own thing. I think your trip to Liangzhou is imperative.”
Tan Anjun gritted his teeth and nodded: “I don’t care, it doesn’t matter where I stay, but now my poor wife and children are going to follow me to suffer in that desolate place.”
Qi Xiang coughed and was startled inwardly. He didn’t expect Tan Anjun to accept it so quickly, he thought he was going to throw a tantrum and scold the world!
“Speaking of leaving the place where I have lived for three years, I am really nostalgic.” Yang Lan’er looked at Qi Xiang with a bit of melancholy, “However, fortunately, in the past three years since I came to the border, I have never slacked off, opened up wasteland and planted fields and fruit trees, Potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice, fruit tree greenhouses, and the popularized method of making tofu have become the characteristic industries of the northern border. People in Pengcheng and surrounding areas should have improved their lives a lot.
It can be considered that my trip to the North was not in vain, and I lived up to the expectations of the late emperor, and I was also worthy of the title of Xiangjun given to me by the late emperor. “
“The princess runs a textile factory and a sewing machine factory, and has made outstanding contributions to the industrial advancement of the northern border. The people of the northern region will never forget you.” Qi Xiang added.
Yang Lan’er’s eyelids twitched, why do these words sound so familiar?
She rolled her eyes and replied, “This is not one!”
Qi Xiang coughed and did not continue the topic, but turned to Tan Anjun and asked, “When are you going to leave?”
Tan Anjun pondered for a moment, then said: “Don’t rush, wait until we receive the order, besides, the children can’t bear to travel in this scorching heat.”
If you really want to leave, there are too many follow-up matters. How can it take less time to deal with these matters!
What Qi Xiang thought of, he couldn’t help but asked again: “You go all the way to the fiefdom, and you have to pass through the capital area. At that time, will you make a slight detour to enter the capital?”
Tan Anjun didn’t answer him immediately this time, but turned to look at his little wife beside him.
Yang Lan’er picked up a piece of fruit, stuffed it into her mouth, glanced at the two of them, and said as it should: “Of course I have to go to Beijing for a while, since the new emperor wants us to go to that desolate place, is he right?” We have to return the property of our Prince Mu Mansion and the taxes and income from the fief in that year, otherwise, will our family go to that desolate place to drink the northwest wind?”
“What if he doesn’t give it?” Qi Xiang asked.
Yang Lan’er said viciously: “If you don’t give it, you have to give it. If you don’t give it to me, you will cry, make trouble, and hang yourself!”
Hearing this, the two big men in the room laughed out loud.
