The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 361 Jiang Chong’s plan

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Chang'an is actively minting new coins and promoting the sale of cotton and linen clothes among the powerful.

The counties surrounding the Yellow River are another scene.

Jiang Chong walked very slowly on his westward journey. He walked slowly on purpose, looking for his target.

Finally he found a woman he liked in Zhao Di.

The woman's name is Su Manying. Her husband broke the law five years ago and was castrated. Finally, he was sent to Weiyang Palace to be an eunuch and served as the Zhonghuangmen.

Later, his father was like a fish in the palace, but after Chen Ajiao's affair was exposed, he was executed by Wei Ning.

Yes, Su Manying's father was the eunuch Su Wen who was killed by Wei Ning.

After Su Wen's death, the Su family was afraid of being implicated, so they all changed their surname to Zhao.

Su Manying is also called Zhao Manying now.

Zhao Manying rarely goes out, she is silent and quiet, she has good calligraphy skills, she is handsome, she is a calligrapher, and she is only twelve or thirteen years old.

Jiang Chong felt more and more that this woman was the one he was looking for!

He immediately met with Zhao Manying and his uncle in private.

Jiang Chong asked Zhao Manying if he wanted to enter the palace to avenge his father. His uncle was shocked when he heard this and repeatedly said he did not dare.

But Zhao Manying gritted her teeth stubbornly and asked Jiang Chong: "How to take revenge? My father was killed by the former Zhenbei Marquis and the current prince. What capabilities do we have?"

Jiang Chong smiled and said: "As long as you follow my words, I will definitely let you be doted on by His Majesty. Even if you can't get revenge, you can still enter the deep palace and gain glory and wealth, and it will not be in vain for your uncle and other family members to train you."

Zhao Manying nodded and said: "Okay! What should I do?"

Jiang Zhengli never expected that Zhao Manying would be so resolute and strong on the inside despite being quiet on the outside!

He said slowly: "I will stay here for two or three days to build momentum for you first."

"It's good that few outsiders know about your existence. I will find someone to spread the rumors first, and say that you are a strange woman of this generation. You have been holding jade in your hands since you were a child and you can't stretch it."

Recently, Jia Rang has managed the Yellow River in an orderly manner, which is an important matter for the country. After the Yellow River management has achieved results, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will definitely patrol the Yellow River north to gain a wave of popularity.

"Your Majesty is very fond of beauty. He is patrolling the Yellow River in the north. Once he hears about your strange people and strange things, he will definitely receive you."

"You have an excellent appearance. His Majesty will definitely like it. His Majesty will most likely hold your hand. Then you will open your hand and reveal the beautiful jade."

Zhao Manying frowned and said, "Is it that simple?"

Would Your Majesty believe such a ridiculous lie?

Jiang Chong said: "I will arrange a warlock here, and during this period I will also build momentum for him, so that his credibility among the people will become higher and higher."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty actually had three major hobbies: fierce horses, beautiful women, and warlocks. However, various previous encounters made Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty not care much about warlocks.

If I were touring the counties along the Yellow River in the north this time, I would definitely pay a visit once I heard that there was such a magical magician here.

"At that time, I was asking the warlock to cooperate with you in this scene, so that you would be able to enter His Majesty's eyes."

"After meeting His Majesty, everything will depend on your performance."

"When Wei Zifu entered the Weiyang Palace as a singer and became a queen, why can't you copy Wei Zifu's path?"

"If you really gain a foothold in the harem, I will cooperate with you and deal with the prince step by step. This is not a bad idea!"

"There is still more time and more opportunities." Zhao Manying's uncle instinctively refused. He did not have Zhao Manying's courage and just wanted to comfort his life, even if it was a little poor now.

But Zhao Manying was different. She said decisively: "Okay! That's it!"

Jiang Chong smiled and said: "Okay! I will go to the Western Regions as soon as I make the arrangements. If nothing else happens, we will meet in Chang'an."

"Ok!"

A sneer appeared on Jiang Chong's lips, and he left with his hands behind his back.

He has always hated evil. Prince Dan and Liu Pengzu of Zhao were simply emperors in Zhao. Didn't they still die in Jiang Chong's scheme?

Wei Ning demoted him to Longquan Palace. Liu Qing, the Minister of Rites, looked down on his sarcastic look. He kept it all in mind. When he returned to Chang'an after his trip to the Western Regions, he would still touch him even if he was the prince!

"Manying."

Uncle Zhao said to Zhao Manying: "Do you know how risky this is? The other party is the prince! Even if he kills your father, just bear with it. If something happens to you again, what will you do?"

Uncle Zhao is an honest farmer and does not dare to do anything risky.

Zhao Manying said calmly: "Uncle, how dare you not avenge your father's murder? It is unfilial for children to watch their enemies turn a blind eye like this!"

"Do you know why those businessmen, women, and powerful people are so rich and powerful?"

"Because they are brave and dare to do things that others dare not do. Their honest duties will always be enslaved by others, and they will remain inactive for the rest of their lives!"

"Now there is an opportunity in front of us. Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if we miss it, we will never have it again. We will still be ants, being bullied and treated like nothings in Zhao."

"Do you know why I don't dare to go out? If a powerful person likes me, how can I still clasp my fist when I am innocent?"

"Uncle, you can't be too down-to-earth in your life, otherwise you will always be enslaved and never be able to get up! If you don't take some risks, how can the poor change their destiny?"

"Those who change their destiny are not doing risky things?"

Uncle Zhao was speechless by Zhao Manying's words.

Because the nature of society is like this, and it is like this in any era. Either you are reincarnated well, or you need to do some risky things. If you farm honestly and do your job, you will be fished by mermaids throughout your life.

Hasn't he been bullied a lot? His wife often scolds him for being hopeless. Does he feel better? When the child asks him why he is still so poor after living for so long, he, the father, is always speechless.

"it is good!"

"It's up to you! Uncle supports you!"

Zhao Manying nodded heavily and said: "Uncle! Our Su family will definitely rise in the future. We no longer have to recognize other people's ancestors and use other people's surnames to survive!"

"Believe me, you will definitely succeed this time!"

Jiang Chong stayed in Zhao for three days. After arranging everything, he accelerated his journey and headed towards the Western Regions day and night.

By autumn and October, the effectiveness of Jia Rang's three-stage management of the Yellow River had begun to show scale.

Jia Rang wrote a letter to congratulate Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. When the three provinces of the imperial court received the results of Yellow River control, they were all overjoyed and immediately went to Weiyang Palace to report to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Such a great project is naturally worthy of special mention. The Ministry of Rites immediately organized sacrifices and arranged for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Weining to worship the mountains and rivers.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ordered that after the worship was over, he took Wei Qing and Huo Qubing to inspect the Yellow River, demonstrating the political clarity under his governance and the clear sea and river.

Let Weining stay in Chang'an and supervise the country!

On the surface, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was going to inspect the effectiveness of Yellow River management, but the actual purpose was to test Weining's ability to govern independently.

He left all important ministers such as Zhao Zhou, Sang Hongyang and others to Weining and asked them to help Weining govern the country.
