Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 916 Year after year

The person who came was none other than Xue Changfeng. He was wearing silver armor from a large camp on the outskirts of Beijing. He had not been seen for a long time. He had become much stronger and even had a stubble.He was carrying the boy like a chicken, and he was pushing him with fierce eyes.

The servants were so frightened that they begged for mercy, saying that His Highness the Fourth Prince had ordered them to come and they did not dare to disobey the order.

"Your Highness, where are the others?"

"Your Royal Highness, please enter the palace to report to the Emperor."

"Oh, you'd better go to the Fourth Prince's Mansion and have a look. He's probably still dreaming!"

Xue Changfeng kicked the leader out. The man rolled a few times and hurriedly got up and ran away with his men.

"Commander Xue, long time no see." Liu Yunxiang walked forward with a smile.

Xue Changfeng turned around, smiled at Liu Yunxiang, and saluted again.

"Princess, if Xichang troubles the palace again from now on, please send someone to report to me at the camp on the outskirts of Beijing. I will bring troops over immediately to see if they still dare to be arrogant."

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "With Commander Xue's words, I will trouble you more in the future."

"Seven years ago, I sent someone to deliver a letter to me, saying that you are about to go to Beijing. You are worried about the complicated situation between North Korea and China, and asked me to protect your safety." Xue Changfeng flicked his nose as he spoke, and then cut it. "There is no need for him to give me this letter. Regardless of him, because of our friendship, I have to protect you."

"It doesn't matter whether it's the Fourth Prince or Xichang. It's just that I have to raise food and grass as soon as possible. I need Commander Xue's help."

"It is my duty to raise food and grass for Lingnan."

It was late at night and it was not convenient to talk. Liu Yunxiang asked Xue Changfeng to come to the palace early in the morning to discuss.

Early the next morning, Liu Yunxiang also sent invitations to Wu Min and several officials. Feng Zheng went to find Zhang Qi and his subordinates who were in charge of the grain store, granary, and the boat gang and horse gang responsible for transportation. Everyone gathered in the front yard. Hall.

At this time, there was no distinction between officials and businessmen. Everyone came up with plans to see how to ensure the subsequent supply of food and grass in Lingnan.

"Money is not a problem." Liu Yunxiang put the words first, "I can provide money, even if it empties my family's wealth."

Wu Min cupped his fists and saluted Liu Yunxiang, "The Crown Princess is righteous, but you may not have settled the account. The cost of military expenses is huge. You can last for three to five months, but it will be difficult for you to last for three to five years."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "I may not be able to do other things, but I will never be wrong in settling accounts. The properties under my Lingyun are spread all over Da Rong and Beijin. Now there are caravans going to West Vietnam and countries further west, as well as ships heading to the East China Sea. I won’t talk about the annual profits from trade, but they are enough to support Lingnan’s army.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Min and several other ministers were shocked.

Maybe Liu Yunxiang was too low-key before, which made them think she didn't have much money.

"So now our problem is how to raise food and transport it." Liu Yunxiang made the problem concrete to save them from focusing on money.

"Of course, this problem cannot be solved in a few words. In the future, if you have a way out and have ideas, come to the palace and we will discuss it together."

Wu Min nodded, "His Royal Highness is fighting in the front, we must resolve the matters in the rear."

Now that spring has just begun, it is the time of drought. Fortunately, Yanzhou has collected 15 shi of grain and several batches of fodder have been transported to Lingnan, temporarily solving the military ration problem.

When the weather gets warmer, Liu Yunxiang manages Lingyun's industry while raising food.

Under her promotion, Yangzhou Brocade Street finally began to prosper. Many workshops moved there, and merchants came to buy goods. At the same time, the trade with the west was also opened, and goods began to be shipped west.

In the first year, as Liu Yunxiang promised, the Yangzhou brocade industry paid [-] tax dollars to the national treasury.

Another year, Liu Yunxiang went to Yangui City. She asked Yanbei to raise [-] shi of grain, and then went over to discuss how to transport it to Lingnan.Because this journey is too long, the weather has been unstable, and the situation has been unstable in the past two years, so this transportation must be carried out with extra caution.

When she came to Yangui City, Liu Yunxiang first went to the fields. She was half relieved when she saw that the wheat was almost mature and growing well.In the second year of the war, the Central Plains Army and the Xizhou Army also began to ask for military rations, but the war was still tense and there was no end in sight.Liu Yunxiang could only endure the pressure and continue to raise food and grass non-stop.When she came out of the field, she found the children waiting for her at the end of the field.

"mother!"

"mother!"

Yan'er and Xingyi ran towards her. They hadn't seen each other for two years. The two children had grown a lot taller, especially Yan'er, who was already as tall as her.Her heart was sore and swollen, she suppressed her tears and stepped forward to hug the two children.

"Xingyi, Yan'er, mother..." Liu Yunxiang's throat was tight. To be honest, the past two years had been so hectic and chaotic that she didn't even have time to think about her children, so she felt full of guilt for them at this moment.

"Mom, we know that you and dad are doing big things. We can't disturb you. We will wait for you in Yangui City." Xingyi cried as he spoke.

Yan'er was already ten years old. He took a step back and bowed to Ben Yao.

"Yan'er, what are you doing?"

Liu Yunxiang hurriedly went to help Yan'er. Looking at her son who was as tall as her, she still couldn't hold back her tears.

"Mom, don't cry."

Yan'er wiped away Liu Yunxiang's tears and said, "Son, mother and father please rest assured. My sister and I will take good care of ourselves and the Three Treasures, but you must take care of yourselves."

Liu Yunxiang cried and nodded, hugging his son, "Yan'er, just wait a moment. Mom and dad will be back to accompany you soon."

"When we grow up, we can take care of dad and mom in the future."

"Good boy, I know you are sensible, but I can't help you."

"No, we are very good in Yangui City, really very good."

Liu Yunxiang hugged Yan'er and Xingyi tightly, when he heard the sound of milk purring, "Jinyan said you are my mother, but why don't you hug me?"

Hearing this sound, Liu Yunxiang looked down and saw a little carrot twisting his little body and running over. He had two small horns on his head. He was white and tender and chubby. He had a pair of almond eyes like hers. He was pouting at the moment. Looking at her.

"Three Treasures!"

Liu Yunxiang bent down and picked up Sanbao. Looking at the little guy, she shed even more tears. After two years of not seeing her, her Sanbao could talk and walk. His appearance had changed a lot. I'm afraid he would be seen on the street. , she couldn’t even recognize it.

"Sambo, I am mother, you have grown so big."

Sanbao tilted his head back and looked at Liu Yunxiang carefully, "Brother drew me a portrait of my mother, but you are more beautiful than the portrait."

Liu Yunxiang burst into laughter, but tears still kept flowing, "Sambo, mother loves you so much, but mother can't be around to take care of you."

"My sister said that my mother loves me very much, but I have to wait a moment, because my mother still has big things to do."

"Sambo is so good, can you call me mother?"

Sanbao pouted and looked first at his brother and then his sister. Seeing them nodding, he turned around and shouted: "Mom!"

Liu Yunxiang responded and hugged Sanbao tightly.

"Mom, my brother and sister said that Sambo can't call anyone else's mother casually. Sambo only has one mother. When mother comes back, you have to ask them before Sambo can call you."

Sanbao pouted as he spoke, "Because Sanbao always calls the wrong person, they are so happy that they take Sanbao home and make their brothers and sisters anxious."
