Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!

Chapter 356 Locusts passed through the border and scraped the ground 3 feet away!

He glanced at his father's face and continued.

"The most important thing is that my father has been out of Kyoto for more than a month, and there is a lot of backlog of government affairs. I am anxiously waiting for my father to return to deal with it. Let's set off as soon as possible!"

The eldest prince and the second prince were so angry that they gritted their teeth when they saw the third prince behaving like this. How could they not think as fast as the third prince and let him take the lead?

But complaints are complaints, and they can't be too far behind.

So the second prince immediately echoed, "Yes, father, you are the head of a country, and your safety is the most important. Moreover, there have been messages from Kyoto to urge us several times. The Great Wei Kyoto cannot be without you!"

The eldest prince knelt down directly, "Father, I beg you! The war at the border is changing, and we cannot distract the general. If the father is really reluctant to let the soldiers face the enemy alone, then we can continue to reward them. The soldiers and generals will definitely be grateful and loyal to the Wei Dynasty! If the father is still worried, I am willing to stay and supervise the army on my father's behalf!"

The second prince and the third prince also had sharp eyes after hearing this, and they knelt down to fight for it.

"Father, my son is also willing to stay to supervise the army."

"My son is too!"

The remaining ministers, all aged and matured, knelt down and shouted.

"Your Majesty, I admire your Majesty's determination to live and die together with the people and the border troops, but the country cannot be left without a master for a day!"

"Your Majesty, the border guards have been guarding the border for generations, and they will definitely win this time!"

"Only when the emperor is in Kyoto can the Wei Dynasty remain strong!"

Sure enough, the old emperor felt much better after hearing these words.

He is the leader of a country, and even if he is afraid, it is difficult to show it. But now that his son and ministers have worked together to build the steps, he can leave with dignity and maintain the majesty of the emperor. This is what he is most happy about.

He was silent for a long time, and when the old ministers wanted to cry, he finally nodded.

"In such a critical time, I should have fought against the enemy together with the people of the North, but what you dear friends have said is right. Kyoto is busy with political affairs, and my presence here is not conducive to the peace of mind of the border guards.

"Pass on my decree and set off back to Beijing in three days. In addition, send people to the border troops to pass on my instructions, reward the three armies, and help the generals to win!"

"Your Majesty!" Everyone shouted, with relief on their faces, but in their hearts they were grateful to have survived the disaster!
  After the order was given, everyone got busy, packing their luggage, searching for specialties, and preparing carriages and horses. It was like hitting the back of the head with their feet, wishing they could run in the snow and smoke!

But the matter of passing on oral instructions to the border guards was forgotten by everyone.

Of course, not all of them were forgotten, because there were still six princes who continued to guard the palace and the imperial mausoleum. When everyone left, of course he was the one to see them off!

As for whether the Sixth Prince was afraid of the border guards when he gained prominence in the border guards, it was not within the scope of everyone's consideration.

If a person does not serve himself, he will be destroyed by heaven and earth. You haven't even taken care of yourself. Escape is important, so don't worry about others!

For a time, the entire Northland was in a commotion because the emperor was going back to Kyoto!
  All kinds of furs, wild products, and herbs have become popular commodities. Of course, the most popular ones are cashmere clothes and pants!
  However, don’t get me wrong, no one in the Northland is happy about this rush buying, because they are not making any money at all, and they are even losing money.

These noble people in Kyoto felt that they were superior to others. They wished they could hold it in front of him with both hands. They still had to pick and choose!
  You actually want money? It is simply treasonous and disrespectful!

Three days later, the team back to Beijing finally set off, and the curses throughout the North could no longer be suppressed.

"These unlucky things are more ruthless than mice. They scrape the ground three feet away! All the leathers I had saved for three years were confiscated! A dozen good leathers were given to me, and they gave me twenty taels!"        “You still have I got twenty taels, but a cart full of my medicinal materials was taken away, without even a tael of silver, and they even took a fancy to one of my maids, and all of them were taken away!"

"These bandits, I wish they would never come again!"

"As soon as I heard that Rakshasa people were coming, I was so frightened that I ran away. It doesn't matter. Before I left, I was going to cause harm to others!"

"That's right, we should throw them out of the border, scare them into crying and howling, and make them remember!"

It happened that Tai Jiye was in the city that day, having dinner with some business friends. Listening to their complaints, they blew their beards and stared in anger, so he could only pour wine for everyone in silence.

After everyone had scolded him secretly, they remembered that he was there, so they all made fun of him half-jokingly and half-enviously.

"Brothers, your family is so good. You sold the business of cashmere clothes and trousers long ago. This time I heard that those companies that just started weaving cashmere clothes and trousers were forced to buy them out after they had only saved a hundred or so items in stock. .”

"Yes, yes, one of them is my cousin. He was so angry that he talked to me for a long time yesterday. The loss is not much, but at least I have a few hundred taels of silver!"

No matter what Tai Jiye was thinking, he couldn't tell the truth at this time. He put on a grimace and replied, "Everything in the world is unpredictable. It's hard to tell the difference between good and bad. My family originally wanted to share the weaving method of cashmere clothes and pants, everyone. There is a long-term way to make money. Taking advantage of this time when the nobles from Kyoto come over, we in Tai'an will also become famous! Who would have thought that these people in Kyoto are really..."

He shook his head, sighed and said, "However, a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise. The loss of money for everyone seems to be a loss for the time being, but in the long run, the cashmere clothes and pants brought back by these nobles from Kyoto will definitely cause a trend, maybe not long after. , more merchants from Kyoto arrived and wanted to place orders!"

Oops, this is a reminder to everyone!
  Several friends' eyes lit up, their frustrations were gone, and they all praised Tai Jiye.

"Yes, yes, Brother Stepye is right, bad things may also be good things!"

"So, I really want to tell my cousin to continue knitting cashmere clothes!"

"Haha, I can't explain how I'm taking advantage of someone else!"

Tai Jiye took the opportunity to raise his glass and said with a smile, "Come on, let's raise a glass and congratulate everyone on good luck and fortune!"

"Go for good luck and make a fortune!" Everyone clinked their glasses together, and the atmosphere became more and more lively.

As for the middle-aged masters and servants living in the county inn, they were also a little scared when they heard that the emperor and the ministers had all fled back to Kyoto.

But going back like this, there is no way to communicate, which is actually a problem.

Fortunately, the steward was worried that his life was in danger and his potential exploded, so he actually found something useful.

"Master, Master! Big news! I heard that Taijia Village has taken in many retired and wounded soldiers from the Border Guard Army. They are the same people who patrol their village on weekdays! Do you think the Tai family has a good relationship with the Border Guard Army? Or maybe We always keep in touch, otherwise why would we take in such wounded soldiers?"

The middle-aged man's eyes rolled wildly when he heard that, and he immediately responded happily, "Seriously? This is great! It's not that I am incompetent and can't scare the Tai family. It's actually that the Tai family has been prepared. Maybe that treasure... maybe my dad If you want to find something, it has already been taken away by the border guards!"

The steward didn't understand, but he still agreed, "It must be true, the master is wise."

The middle-aged man waved his hand and was no longer embarrassed at all.

"Let's go back to Kyoto and tell the old man to find a way. I will never come to this miserable place again!" (End of Chapter)
