Chapter 192 Summer Solstice ([-])

This controversy was declared over by Wei Lang's dismissal, and the result of the courtiers' discussions was that they did not make peace with Xianbei.But what Huo Zhun said had to be guarded against, so after careful consideration, the emperor agreed to the market restriction order.That is to say, the contact with the Jie family is limited to its type and quantity.It not only maintains the relationship between the two parties, but also does not allow the Jie people to rise too quickly.

Faced with this result, people's hearts were divided. After the court was dispersed, the turmoil still persisted, and the courtiers discussed in twos and threes.Huo Zhun neither heard any sarcasm nor flattered his colleagues who came forward to comfort him.He walked down the steps of the main hall calmly, laughing and scolding all by himself.

As soon as Wei Lang left the hall, the anger was swept away from his face.After all, it was just a mask for singing.After being an emperor for three years, if he couldn't even manage to be happy but not angry, his bones might be chewed to pieces.

Although Huo Zhun was asked to make a move, he himself turned his back on him. He had a hunch that the Huo family's death time should be approaching.Collaborating with the enemy is a serious crime that implicates the entire family, but Huo Zhun will never let go of Tuoba.With today's scene, and waiting for the relationship between the Huo family and King Xianbei to be revealed... Wei Lang looked at his hands, he was finally able to pull out this thorn in his side, the thorn in his flesh.

Su Yan also fell down in a daze.His status in the eyes of the emperor is not the same, so naturally someone with good intentions will come up and ask what they think of Huo Xiang.

Su Yan just shook his head helplessly, and said: "Since Your Majesty has made a decision, we are courtiers, so there is no need to say more."

Everyone on the stage is right.What Huo Zhun said is not wrong.It is better to believe in human nature than to believe in people's hearts.The best choice is to do everything right, so that the Hu people will always be in a state of disunity, so that the serious troubles in their hearts can be eliminated.This matter is said out loud, but throughout the ages, it has been so rational.Never lying on the side of the couch, no one else sleeps soundly, guarding against the Jie family is not a villain's heart.

However, the emperor's anger was not without reason.The so-called king's desire is nothing more than a few words on paper.The king is also a human being, how can he have no desires.What's more, the face of a country still has to be honored. In the past, Xianbei came to court in the name of a subsidiary country, but now they suddenly said that they wanted to be equal, which is not far from pointing at the beam.A scholar can be killed, but can he be humiliated?The courtier sniffed, not pretending to be lofty.

And under the table, there are monsters, ghosts and monsters, each with their own stomachs.Thousands of miles away, Tuoba Mian in Pingcheng had already woken up, but the news from Beijing hadn't arrived so soon, so he could only continue to make false claims with Huo Yun.If you don't see a rabbit, don't scatter an eagle. It has always been a good tradition of hunters.

Of course, he forced Huo Zhun to hand over those memorials.The purpose is to completely tear Huo Zhun and Wei Lang apart, so that Huo Zhun will not eat at both ends.As long as Wei Lang refused to make peace with Xianbei, either Huo Zhun would side with the emperor, or he would completely side with Tuoba Mian.

As for the former, Tuoba Mian is not afraid either.Anyway, now, the Jie family has not yet risen.Big deal, play a game.The latter, needless to say.The advantages of forming an alliance with the Prime Minister of the Liang Dynasty always outweigh the disadvantages. Let alone the issue of food and grass supplies, it will be much more convenient to use this as an excuse in the future to do things in Liang.

Taking ten thousand steps back, if Wei Lang failed to defeat Huo Zhun in the hall, he would approve the matter.That's even better, he joined hands with Huo's family openly and infiltrated Liang Chaoye.

When Huo Zhun returned to the mansion, Huo Yunsheng had been waiting for a while.Seeing the look on Huo Zhun's face, one knew that the result was similar to what the two discussed.No matter how high-sounding the reason was, Wei Lang couldn't agree to it.If Xianbei wants to trade with Liang, he must go to the Pingcheng area, and he can't get around Huo's house anyway.

After Wei Lang ascended the throne, he first divided the power in the Northwest into two, supported the Shen family and the Huo family on an equal footing, and then lowered his profile and allowed the Jie people to enter Beijing to suppress the Huo family in the northwest. How could this happen now.Fortunately, the power in Beijing has not been dissipated, and the Huo family will not fall into a situation where they are still in control.However, since the decree has been issued to strictly prohibit contact with Xianbei, Huo Yunsheng is a little scrupulous, and he really lives with his head hanging on his waist.

He didn't have a good plan, so he could only ask Huo Zhun, "What do you think, Dad?"

Facing his son, Huo Zhun had no other scruples, and expressed his thoughts one by one: "This matter is imperative. Fortunately, there is a market restriction order. If there are more restrictions, there will be more conflicts. You and I will appease you first." Let’s talk about Tuoba, and do it properly. Then we will secretly collect some contacts between the Shen family and the Jie people, and when we cut off the contacts with the Jie people, we won’t be able to take risks.”

Of course he knew Tuoba Mian's intention to force him to submit a memorial, but he thought he was a high-ranking man, and he proposed this market restriction order with his a few confidants.

Mutual market and mutual market, the so-called business, is just in this word, how can it be limited.A living person is not a dead tree, and it can still be pruned by you.Not to mention that there is a high probability that the Jie family will have opinions soon, if not, why not let him have opinions?Let Tuoba Mian ride a horse to grab it all. When the time comes, will the beam be limited or unlimited?
As long as the connection between the Shen family and Jie is cut off, the Huo family will no longer have to drag Tuoba back.Northwest is still that Northwest, and Beijing is still that Beijing.He, Huo Zhun, can continue to be with the monarch and ministers of Wei Lang as usual.

Huo Zhun added another sentence: "It's you, it's right to return to your original job as soon as possible."Although there are people in Beijing, but things like tokens, you have to pinch your hands to be at ease.

Xue Se's status is still a little lady, but no one in the palace dares to underestimate her.It's almost a month, and she has all the favor of the king, and the empress Huo Yunwan is sending silk pearls and jade like flowing water, lest she be neglected.The little eunuch in the study only saw Lady Xue, and trotted forward to meet her.Stepping on the high and bowing to the low is a routine method in this palace, even the servants of the imperial court must try to curry favor with the palace lords, how could they not know this rookie?

"Why does the empress carry the heavy things herself, but the people below are lazy, and the slaves let others go over to have a look, and they must not go around lightly."The little eunuch stretched out his hand to catch the food box in Xuese's hand, and babbled nonsense.He doesn't know the situation of the favored concubine, even if those cheap skins have neglected the queen at this moment, they are determined not to neglect the empress.

"I can do it myself, I don't have to work hard for my father-in-law."Xue Se smiled, did not forget to bend over, and took out a pouch from his sleeve and handed it to the little eunuch, "please drink tea, father-in-law".

She was beautiful and docile, no wonder Wei Lang held her in his hand every day, even most of his servants were sincere.The little eunuch happily accepted the reward, and didn't rush to get the basket any more, but followed behind Xue Se and couldn't stop complimenting: "Madam Xue is protecting us who are not on the stage, we are all looking forward to your coming, Today, the emperor has made a lot of anger in the court, so he is waiting for someone who is willing to persuade him."

"Your Majesty is in a bad mood?"

"That's right, but Long Live Lord doesn't like the Empress in the harem to intervene in court affairs, so I won't talk to you, so as not to bring trouble to you, Empress. You can go in quickly."

"Thank you, father-in-law."Xue Se bent over again, and walked faster.

Who is born with a good temper of humility and obedience?It's not all the endurance of those ten years of hard life.Earth-shaking things happen to everyone.I don't know that Lu Zhi, the maid of the Qi family, is not only the major general Xue Ling of Pingcheng, but also thousands of ants.The morning is dew, and the evening is dust, or the two are reversed, like a snow-colored lady.

Even though she has become the emperor's new favorite, but the time is short, the imprint of the original body, not to mention fading, even if she deliberately wants to whitewash, it's just deception.So, how can she be careless? How can she be careless?
"Your majesty, seeing that you don't have enough breakfast, I think you're hungry, so I brought some food here to have a look."Xue Se walked into the room, holding up the food basket shyly and timidly.She should call herself a concubine, but when she gets nervous, she forgets.

"What did you do, show me."Wei Lang put down the pen in his hand and did not correct it. There are only two people in the study, so there is no need to worry about etiquette.What's more, he likes the weak and helpless appearance of the people in front of him.Calling a slave is far more pleasant than calling a concubine.

"It's nothing more than porridge and side dishes. The courtiers and concubines are no better than sisters, and they don't know how to make those precious things."Xue Se's cheeks were red, and she didn't dare to look Wei Lang in the eye.She was seventeen years old outside the palace, living a miserable life.I don't know what kind of human bird's nest, but what I said is the truth.Just, today's status.Don't say you have to learn, as long as she opens the mouth, there will be seventeen or eight maids lining up to cook the stew for her to take credit for.

However, the queen said, just porridge.

Wei Lang was even happier, not waiting for Xue Se to approach.Standing up, he took the food box and opened the lid to have a look. Sure enough, it was a bowl of porridge with a pile of unknown vegetable roots, sprinkled with a little sesame oil.He smiled and said, "It's okay."

He reached out to take it, but Xue Se grabbed Wei Lang's hand and said: "Hot".After finishing speaking, he immediately threw it away, lowered his head and said, "The concubine has exceeded the rules."

"Forget it, let's eat after cooling down, you stay here with me for a while."

"Yes".Xuese brought out the porridge with a handkerchief and put it aside, then stood aside.He neither helped grind the ink, nor took the initiative to talk to Wei Lang.

Wei Langfu picked up his pen again, smelling the aroma of rouge behind him, and circled on the memorial.It's no big deal, it's over and over again, either disaster relief or appropriation, or harvest celebration.Only the commerce of the Jie people deserves attention.Su Yuanheng's personality was recommended by Su Yan.Although I don't know what the relationship between the two is, but they use it smoothly.A businessman can't afford to make big waves, so it's not worth guarding against, but with the market restriction order today, he has to worry more.

How to limit is a tricky question. Wei Lang put aside a few books related to the Jie clan first, and approved the rest.Seeing that the porridge was getting colder, he picked it up and drank it all in one gulp.It made Xue Se scream coquettishly behind her again.I have eaten a lot of delicacies from mountains and seas, and this tasteless mouthful is really appealing.Yingying Yanyan in the harem, the only beauty like this is a piece of wood.Most people don't like wood, but he, Wei Lang, likes wood alone.

Sending Xue Se back, he picked up the few papers he kept earlier, the word "Limited" appeared on it, and then the bright red seal was heavily stamped.

Although Huo Zhun didn't propose the market restriction order, Wei Lang also knows whose intention it came from.This old man can be regarded as far-sighted, first played Tuoba's entry into Beijing, and if he agreed, he would put the Xianbei forces behind the Huo family in an open and honest manner.If it is not allowed, use this blunt knife to cut flesh and cut off the contacts between the Shen family and the Jie family.

How can I know that I am happy to see its success, but I can't ask for it.

Since he divided the northwest into two, how could he repeat the same mistakes and let the Shen family dominate.The reason why the Northwest is important is that the land occupies both internal and external troubles.If it is true that the soldiers raised by the Jie people are strong and strong, then the front line of Wuzhou will not need to be afraid of Ningcheng's lineage, and dare to challenge the emperor. How is this different from the Huo family today.

However, such things as market restrictions, such as whether they are restricted or not, when and how they are restricted, must not be publicly known to the Jie people.As long as Shen Yuanzhou keeps things as usual in the early stage, Huo Zhun will have to collude with Tuoba Mian. Once he moves, evidence will naturally flow out, and the Huo family will come to an end.

At that time, I will send someone who is not from the Shen family to take over Ningcheng, so that the Northwest will be in my hands.Then use the city limit to cut down the Shen family and the Jie family. In this way, the forces in that land will be balanced, and no one can suppress the other.

The art of the emperor does not need allies, only checks and balances.

Since then, Tuoba Mian, Huo Zhun, and Wei Lang have all been happy, thinking that they have got what they want and everything is under control, but in fact, everyone is in the eyes of the other, but the clown jumping on the beam will only increase the laughter.
