The Evil Emperor Pursues His Wife: Sheng Chong Shifei

Chapter 203 The pattern is different
"My lord, this is Bibo, the younger sister of the lower official."

Feng Nianqing smiled and introduced the girls around him to Chu Qianhan. Feng Bibo stepped forward to be rude, singing softly like a thrush: "Bibo has seen the prince."

Chu Qianhan just nodded and didn't say much to Feng Bibo.

Feng Nianqing asked again: "What do you think of the sea view here?"

"It's spectacular. When I chose the fiefdom, Qing'er told me that I should come and see the sea, and that there is a wider world on the other side of the sea and sky."

Chu Qianhan stretched out his hand, as if to grasp the whole world.

Feng Nianqing smiled awkwardly. He brought the woman here to dedicate it to Chu Qianhan, and Chu Qianhan clearly refused when he mentioned Shangguan Qing.Thinking of the woman who cut off his arm and put it back for him, Feng Nianqing broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead, secretly cursing that the people in the clan are pig-headed, marriage is not easy, it is a risk of a narrow escape.If that aunt knew that he was giving Chu Qianhan a woman, the alliance between the two sides might be completely torn apart.

Afraid to mention the woman next to him, Feng Nianqing followed Chu Qianhan's topic and said, "The sea god's territory is on the other side of the sea and sky, and no one can come back alive."

The Feng family has been running Lingnan Road for more than four generations. They are typical local tyrants. They want to become king on their own, but they dare not really raise an army to rebel. The whole Feng family was so daring that they no longer dared to have the idea of ​​becoming king on their own.

Feng Nianqing talked about some legends about the sea, and Chu Qianhan occasionally asked some customs and customs, and he always answered every question. The two chatted happily, and suddenly Chu Qianhan said: "Fortunately, you didn't rebel and stand on your own, otherwise the new country will not After three years, it will perish."

"Where did the prince say that?" Feng Nianqing asked vigilantly.

"Don't get me wrong, since we are already allies, we can say something openly. According to what you said just now, the Feng family's source of income is not from the ocean, so it must come from business with the hinterland of the Central Plains. The source of income is too single."

Chu Qianhan didn't need Feng Nianqing to ask, turned around and pointed to the inland direction, and said, "Your income structure is determined by relying on the sea and facing internally. Once you raise your troops and stand on your own, the imperial court will definitely block the Nanling mountain road and cut off the exchange of goods between the north and the south. We only talk about the military expenditure when the soldiers go into battle, the food and horses are only a small part, and the pensions and rewards after each battle are the most expensive part. How long can the Feng family's tens of millions of wealth last? , after you can’t pay the rewards, how long can you maintain the morale of the army, the court doesn’t have to win at all, as long as you don’t lose completely, you will lose.”

Feng Nianqing was shocked at first, and then smiled bitterly, feeling that the situation was much worse than Chu Qianhan's.He knew the background of the family, because he raised too many private soldiers, and his daily income was barely enough. If there was a war, he might not be able to last for three years.

What Chu Qianhan said next surprised Feng Nianqing again.

"I guess, your previous agreement included the opening of trade with Dongyi." The words hit the red heart.

Feng Nianqing said, "That's true."

"In this way, you may be able to persist for two more years. Dongyi's market is too small, and the income is not enough to support soldiers for a long time. The goods you ship must be bought by someone, and then they can be exchanged for war supplies. I’m not full. To purchase large quantities of war preparations, there is nowhere except the hinterland of the Central Plains.”

Chu Qianhan's conclusion made Feng Nianqing collapse. It turned out that their conspiracy plan was doomed to fail from the very beginning. Chu Qianhan saw through the essence, which made Feng Nianqing feel terrified.

It's a dangerous move, if you go out, the Feng family will be in doom.

"The next official is here to be taught."

Feng Nianqing saluted and thanked Feng Nianqing, Chu Qianhan stayed at Feng Nianqing and said: "The transfer of luck has been overrated. This is just my family's opinion, and many places don't take it seriously." He thought of that stunningly talented woman, most of whom he knew came to Shangguan Qing tell.

Feng Nianqing cupped his hands and said: "I have something to do, I beg the prince to help me out of this difficulty."

"Transporter, please tell me."

Feng Nianqing looked at Feng Bibo behind him. At this time, Feng Bibo looked at Chu Qianhan's back obsessively. She knew the purpose of this trip and had no rebellious intentions in her heart. Political marriages of children of big families are very common. This is what they enjoy. The price of a superior life.To be able to marry a prince, and also a super master, Feng Bibo still has some small expectations.

"Bibo, you go back first."

"It's brother." Although Feng Bibo was unwilling, he still walked away with lotus steps. When he turned around the viewing pavilion, he looked back at Bai Meisheng and smiled, but it was a pity that Chu Qianhan turned back to look at the sea again.

"Enemy." Feng Bibo didn't feel any resentment in his heart, instead he imprinted Chu Qianhan in his heart.

At this time, Feng Nianqing on the seaside said: "The Feng family now has [-] private soldiers, which cost a lot of money every year. What I want to ask is how to disband these private soldiers."

"Thirty thousand." Chu Qianhan tasted this number, tasted the determination of the Feng family, and also tasted the difficulties of the Feng family.

To support 10 private soldiers and their families, there must be at least [-] people. If such a large foundation is not handled properly, it will cause a mutiny, and the Feng family will not be able to rebel if they don't want to.

Chu Qianhan thought for a while and said: "It's better not to be dismissed immediately. I have a lot of projects to be built in Qiongya Military Prefecture. I can send a group of people to work. After the project is completed, I will be dismissed on the spot, and the 3 people will be separated. It’s much easier, and you can build some projects in other military states on Lingnan Road, such as canals, roads, bridges, and docks. Although you invest more at a time, it will pay off in the future.”

"My lord's kind heart is incomparable to my servants." Feng Nianqing saluted repeatedly in admiration.

Chu Qianhan stopped him and said: "You and I will work together on Lingnan Road in the future, and the transfer is so polite, it will be difficult for me to ask the transfer in the future."

"Wherever it is, the lord can speak up if the Feng family is useful, and my Feng family will definitely go all out." Feng Nianqing expressed on behalf of the Feng family, which meant that the wealthy families on Lingnan Road had accepted Chu Qianhan's restraint.

Without disturbing Chu Qianhan watching the sea, Feng Nianqing came back and saw Feng Bibo waiting beside the carriage.

"Little sister, why can't you be in a carriage?" Feng Nianqing showed a gentle smile. Although this girl was a concubine, she was loved by his father when he was sixty years old. She has been raised under her mother's name. In fact, he was raised as a grandchild, and the whole family loves him very much.

"Brother, what can the prince say?" Feng Bibo looked forward to it.

"Go back and talk."

"Brother." Feng Bibo didn't wait to act like a baby.

"Little sister, the concubine who has never been married to the prince is Shangguan Qing, the daughter of Shangguan Wenhe, the prime minister of the current dynasty. She is a super master at the same level as my grandfather."

Feng Nianqing originally thought that he would scare the little girl away, but Feng Bibo said stubbornly: "So what, if I enter the palace, the prince will watch me being beaten to death by her."
