retaliate

Chapter 77
For Nan Zhou, from birth to now, they have done one thing.

--balance!
Originally, when the Northern Liao Dynasty reigned supreme, the Southern Zhou Dynasty even supported the Tang Dynasty with a lot of money and grain.After the Tang Dynasty settled in the Central Plains, Nan Zhou changed his face and stepped on the seesaw.

Datang was ready to send troops to Nanzhou, and Nanzhou immediately held up the money bag and called to Beiliao affectionately: Dear, do you want to make an appointment?
Northern Liao then stationed troops on the border of Datang, so the Southern Zhou Dynasty was in danger.

In this way, Nan Zhou had both sides in the middle of the two major forces, and had a very nourishing life.

But since the founding of the country, the Southern Zhou Dynasty has never been married.

In other words, the princess of the Southern Zhou Dynasty never married.

Today, the imperial concubine suddenly opened her mouth to test, and Yang Xuan knew that this must be the meaning of the emperor.

Why did the emperor test the Southern Zhou Dynasty?

The Tang Dynasty and the Southern Zhou Dynasty were married, and then the Northern Liao Dynasty was isolated.The tiger ben of the Tang Dynasty and the money and food of the Southern Zhou Dynasty, the emperor of Northern Liao had to sleep with one eye closed at night.

The best excuse for Nian Ziyue's refusal is that the parents are in charge of the marriage, which not only avoids this problem, but also gives the imperial concubine a step down.

The girl's pleasant voice echoed in everyone's ears.

She chose to praise Yang Xuan's competence.

This is a more astute answer.

The imperial concubine glanced at Yang Xuan with the same smile, but Yang Xuan felt that there was some playfulness in the eyes of the imperial concubine.

Don't trick me!

"This is also a good thing." The imperial concubine directly wiped the topic.

Immediately, a group of people sat down in the pavilion, and then talked about the style of the Southern Zhou Dynasty.

Yang Xuan ordered his subordinates to monitor on the veranda, and he walked around by the handle of the knife.

He walked around the veranda, and there were flowers and trees behind, which was also an easy place to hide.

Yang Xuan inspected and found nothing unusual.

"Yang Xuan!"

The footsteps were a bit hasty and sneaky.

Yang Xuan stopped and turned around.

"Little lady."

Wang Xian'er ran over and patted her chest, "I almost went astray, by the way, why didn't you tell me when you became a county magistrate?"

Yang Xuan bet that he really said it, and the two brothers Wang Douxiang could smash him to ashes.

——Wang's Jiaojiao girl and people secretly communicated songs, and it was rumored that Wang's no longer needed to be a human being.

But Wang Xian'er was naive, so Yang Xuan could only tactfully say: "It's not convenient for a man to be a guest at Wang's."

"Little lady!"

Someone was calling softly, and Wang Xian'er said hurriedly, "Remember to report my name next time..."

"Yes."

This girl was raised by the Wang brothers to be charming and innocent, Yang Xuan smiled and agreed.

When he turned to the front, the seat was already open.

After dinner and a cup of tea, the imperial concubine was ready to go back.

Yang Xuan and others accompanied him.

Before getting on the carriage, Jiao Li came over and asked, "My lady asked you, why did you dare to touch those patients who might have contracted the disease when you were in the mine?"

Didn't Han Shishi ask this question?
Yang Xuan's answer was the standard version of loyalty.

But the concubine asked again.

Or faithful?

But he now has the label of a concubine on him.

And if the imperial concubine wanted a loyal answer, why should Jiao Li go there...

Yang Xuan made a decision in an instant, and said Ai Ai for a while: "At that time... At that time, I just thought... I can get ahead and forget about the danger."

Jiao Li was still indifferent and went back immediately.

"Niangniang, he said he wanted to stand out and forgot about the danger."

The imperial concubine in the car leaned lazily, with a lazy cat in her hand, she heard the words and said, "It's still honest."

Yang Xuan has been escorted outside the palace city.

After returning to the county, Yang Xuan ordered Cao Ying to inquire about the news.

"What does your concubine mean? It's inexplicable." Yang Xuan pondered for a long time, but still couldn't get the point.

Cao Ying brought the news before the Xia Yaqian.

"The merchants from the Southern Zhou Dynasty came to Chang'an and continued to shop. The low-lying land of Liang Jing has been filled and is being built. The merchants of the Southern Zhou Dynasty are flocking to it. Lang Jun, Liang Jing... have made a fortune."

Yang Xuan understood, "The imperial concubine learned about the news of her brother's fortune, and worried that I had bad intentions? Tsk tsk! The thoughts of these nobles, fuck you!"

The old thief felt a little regretful, "How good would it be if you did it yourself?"

Yang Xuan got up, "Do you think that with our current status, we can keep such a fortune?"

The old thief was horrified, "Yes, there are so many powerful families in Chang'an City, if we hold such a piece of land, the jealous people can tear us apart."

Yang Xuan has already left the duty room, "Go home!"

"Lang Jun, it's not time yet." Cao Ying chased after him.

"I'm going to patrol the streets."

Not long after Yang Xuan returned home, Liang Jing came.

"Fifty thousand dollars." Liang Jing couldn't refuse, "If you don't accept it, this brother will not be able to do it."

Fifty thousand dollars were piled up in the front yard, and Liang Jing sat on the steps with a golden sword, "Bring good wine and good food. Today our brothers are trying to get drunk."

Two jars of wine, one for each person.

"Done." Liang Jing boldly raised the bowl and drank it.

Yang Xuan took a sip, froze for a moment, and then did it.

After a jar of wine went down, Liang Jing was already numb.

He hugged Yang Xuan and cried, saying how he was looked down upon back then in his hometown, and later when Amei became a nobleman, how did those people flatter and show affection.

"And... there is an official... special! Send your own woman here, bah!"

Liang Jing pouted in disdain.

Yang Xuan said: "Brother Liang will definitely confiscate it."

"Confiscation." Liang Jing raised his eyebrows slyly.

Confiscation, confiscation, two identical words, if the pronunciation changes, the meanings are completely different.

After Liang Jing left, Yang Xuan raised the wine jar and asked, "Who mixed the water?"

The old thief came over and said, "The old man knows that Langjun is very affectionate, but Yi Niang was worried that Langjun would be hurt by drinking too much, so the old man found a way to drill a hole..."

"Well mixed."

Although the wine was mixed with water, Yang Xuan was still a little drunk.

A good night's sleep, the next day is a good man.

"Still sleeping, hurry up, the old thief is going to fetch water, Cao Ying is going to sweep the floor, Wang Lao Er, Wang Lao Er..."

"Hey!"

"Get out of the latrine quickly and go chopping wood to make a fire."

In the early morning, chickens and dogs jumped around at home.

A group of people were turned around by the envoys of Yi Niang, and only the lord Yang Xuan was free.

When breakfast was placed on the table, everyone took a deep breath.

Then, including Wang Lao Er, they all looked at Yang Xuan.

This was taught by Yi Niang. Yang Xuan didn't even move his chopsticks, so don't eat it.

Yang Xuan picked up the chopsticks and brought a piece of mutton, and then everyone ate it violently.

"Let's go, Yi Niang."

Yang Xuan should go to the yamen.

"Come back sooner."

Yi Niang sent them outside the gate, and Duke Xie immediately lowered his head, "Yang Shaofu is out."

"Yeah!" Yang Xuan nodded.

Someone at home misses you early in the morning, the neighbor on the opposite side is exercising, people in the alley are jumping, the birds are standing on the tree watching the lively, and occasionally chirping...

Very nice morning.

At the same time, He Huan just finished breakfast and took a slow walk in the yard.

"The doctor said that Xiao Langjun's feet are recovering well, but for now, be careful. It's best not to run." The servant beside him looked relieved.

He Huan stomped his feet, but didn't feel any pain, so he knew that the wound was almost healed.

"What kind of ramen is it that Yang Xuan opened?"

"Yes."

"How is business?"

"Hot."

He Huan squinted, "This time the Wang family is in danger, and he also went there?"

The voice was calm, but the servant lowered his head, as if he heard thunder, "Yes."

He Huan turned around, "It's not rude to come and go."

The staff came, and after listening to He Huan's order, he hesitated for a while, "Little Langjun, if you lower the price to suppress Yang Xuan's business, it will hurt people in the first place. He's naturally not bad for this money, but other noble families are What's the meaning……"

He Huan's handsome face was filled with disdain, "they were secretly annoyed by the failure of this plan for the Wang family. Chunyu's ancestral tomb was stolen, and it is rumored that Chunyushan killed several concubines... Where did it come from? It seems that it is Yang Xuan, this little shrimp... He can not only get rid of his anger, but also knock the mountain and shake the tiger, so it is him."

The staff hurried to Guangfufang, first stood outside the gate of Yuanzhou Ramen, looked up at the signboard, shook his head and sighed, "The good days are not long."

Immediately, Lin Fan and the others received the invitation.

"Ho's."

Those two words made Lin Fan unable to resist.

In his restaurant, the aide sat at the top, his eyes dim.

"Yuanzhou ramen is open here, you are quite helpless, right?"

Everyone laughed.

Businessmen value profits, businessmen are cunning...

There was some contempt in the staff's eyes, and then dissipated, "What can be done?"

"Arson!" A businessman raised his hand.

"Stupid." The staff scolded, and the man put down his hands embarrassedly.

Lin Fan sighed, "The price of Yuanzhou Ramen is not cheap, the only way is to reduce the price."

The aide nodded. He didn't want to hang out with this group of businessmen who smelled of copper. He got up and said, "He's half, you wait for the rest, cut the price, and crush him."

Before noon, more than ten merchants around Yuanzhou Ramen were hanging their signs.

"Great sale!"

Han Ying was not moved when she heard the news, "It doesn't matter."

Wang Shun went to inquire about the news and came back, his face pale, "My lady, it's almost half price."

Han Ying's body was shocked, "Half price... They can't afford to lose?"

But half price really does that.

During lunch, the shops in the left and right rows of Yuanzhou Ramen were not doing well, and even the clerks made a special trip to take advantage.

Looking at the empty shop, Han Ying gritted her teeth and said, "This is hurting people on purpose."

……

Yang Xuan is very busy at the moment.

His precinct is dead.

An official died.

"Jiang Qin, a member of the Ministry of Housing, stayed in the brothel last night. When the prostitute woke up in the morning, she found that she was already stubborn."

In the room of the brothel, a middle-aged man with red fruit was lying on the bed, a prostitute squatted on the side and choked, "Not a slave, not a slave..."

"Zuo Zuo." Yang Xuan shook his head.

Zuo Zuo came up to check, and even pried Qin Jian's mouth open and scratched his throat with a small object.

Immediately there was a sound of retching.

Zuzuo sent the scraped thing to his eyes to examine it carefully, sniffed it affectionately, and stuck out his tongue to taste it.

Yang Xuan turned his face away, feeling that this line of work was really not easy.

The old thief whispered: "This appetite is a little worse than the old man."

Zuo Zuo slapped his mouth, "Young mansion, there is no poison."

"No poison?" Yang Xuan nodded, and the prostitute raised her head, "Young mansion, it's not the wind immediately."

Yang Xuan asked, "How do you know?"

The prostitute said confidently: "I have seen Ma Feng."

This is an old expert.

Cao Ying came in in a hurry, and Fu Er said to Yang Xuan.

"There was a trouble in the court yesterday, an account of the household department was wrong, and Jian Qin was the person who handled it."

Yang Xuan raised his eyebrows, "That has nothing to do with us."

Cao Ying's voice was even lower, "Jian Qin is the left minister."
