[R18] Will drink wine – “About Wine” Chapter 272 [English]

Chapter 260 Rewards

“Reward,” Li Jianting’s mind was racing and he closed the folding book, “Marquis Helian has made great contributions in raising food. I will reward Marquis Helian heavily.”

Kong Qiu fell to the ground, nodded secretly, and said respectfully: “Your Majesty, your Majesty.”

The relief food cannot be recovered no matter what. If Li Jianting rewards Marquis Helian heavily at this moment, the rumors will be self-defeating.Since Shen Zechuan wants to fight a battle of benevolence and justice with her, let’s wait and see.

“Han Cheng monopolizes power and deceives the emperor, and has the intention to usurp the throne. He has committed a heinous crime that is difficult to forgive,” Li Jianting said. “The commander-in-chief, in order to protect my safety, captured the Han thieves on my behalf, which is a great achievement. Not only that, she sent troops to the Qing Mouse tribe and returned with great victory. I will seal her in both public and private matters.”

Kong Qiu said: “The commander-in-chief was stationed in the border county and suffered a lot from the cold. As early as the Xiande period, he had made great contributions to the king by sending troops. I just don’t know how the emperor wants to appoint the commander-in-chief?”

“I heard that the commander-in-chief is known as the ‘Wind Leading the Wilderness’,” Li Jianting picked up a pen and neatly wrote two words on the paper, “Why don’t we call the commander-in-chief the ‘King of Eastern Lie’.”

Kong Qiu immediately raised his head and said in astonishment: “That is…”

“Qi Zhuyin came out of Qidong three times to protect King Qin. The wind caused Biansha to burn down the thirteenth battalion, and the lone army went deep to rescue his father. Since she served as the military commander of the five counties of Qidong, one county has been impregnable. From the Xiande year to the Tianchen year, not a single soldier of the twelve Biansha tribes was able to invade our Qidong territory.” Li Jianting raised his eyes, “For such a loyal and strong general, why not make her the king?”

“But as the commander-in-chief is a woman,” Kong Qiu said, “it is an exception to be able to ascend the Jade Dragon Platform and be granted an audience. If he is granted the title of king with a different surname again, the world will definitely be in an uproar. Your Majesty, think twice!”

Li Jianting looked at Kong Qiu and said: “Yuan Fu once taught me when he was teaching, ‘The king and his ministers work together to control chaos and safety.’ I must accept loyal advice and treat heroes and virtuous people well. Now Qi Zhuyin can not only guard the four directions for me, but also capture and kill traitors for me, sheTreating me with such sincerity and loyalty, but I still have to stick to the debate between men and women, won’t this chill the hearts of the world’s sages?” She left her seat, came to help Kong Qiu, and said sincerely, “Teacher, sheI am a woman, but I am willing to fight in uniform. Apart from my sincerity to serve my country, I only have loyalty to the emperor.What’s more, I am also a woman, and my teacher has taught me everything, and he still helps me govern the world.Is it really that important?”

Li Jianting changed from “I” to “I”, but Kong Qiu could not change from “Yuan Fu” to “Teacher”.The new emperor wants to seal Qi Zhuyin, not only because of what she said from the bottom of his heart, but also because at the moment, Zhongbo and Libei have strong soldiers and horses, and Qudu only relying on eight battalions to defend the city gate is like hitting an egg against a stone. Only Qi Zhuyin, and only Qi Zhuyin who holds Qidong’s 300,000 soldiers and horses, can compete with the rebels.

“The emperor’s decree is to treat Qidong favorably, but this title is too high.” It’s not that Kong Qiu doesn’t understand the situation, on the contrary, he understands it too well.Once Qi Zhuyin is crowned king, the Great Zhou Dynasty will no longer have a military force that can balance Qidong. The rise and fall of the entire dynasty will depend on Qi Zhuyin’s 300,000 troops.If he wins, how can he seal Qi Zhuyin in the future?She has reached the same position as Xiao Fangxu. Not only can she no longer be sealed, but there is no longer a Libei who can check and balance her.

Li Jianting also understood, but Qi Zhuyin was on good terms with the Libei Xiao family, so this was the only thing she could give her.

“There is a dragon spring on the tongue, and there is no blood in the murder.” Yao Wenyu took the scissors and cut the potted plant on her knees into ugly pieces. “Rumors are difficult to eradicate. The new emperor rewarded Marquis Helian so much that the current situation forced her to murder Marquis Helian.”

“I think the new emperor behaves neither like Xue Xiuzhuo nor Kong Qiu,” Shen Zechuan leaned over to pick up the broken branches that fell on the ground, “he is very independent.”

“She first climbed to Ziji, and she has already seen the mountains and rivers of the world,” Yao Wenyu said, “How can she still be willing to be a pawn. She made a desperate move by naming the commander as ‘King Donglie’. Although the emperor had a slight upper hand in rescuing Jiyong City, it also made You Tan’s position dangerous. If Helian Hou confessed to him under severe punishment, Liuzhou’s internal affairs would be abolished.”

“In the future, Liuzhou Xingang will have goods flowing all over the country,” Shen Zechuan threw the broken branches into the pond in the courtyard. “Handling silver taxes is of great importance, and You Tan is not a good candidate. Besides, since Xue Xiuzhuo is determined to check the accounts, let him concentrate. After all, his family has a lot of bad debts, and I am afraid that he will not be able to take care of himself by then.”

Youtan is greedy for money. It is convenient to use this person, but it is inconvenient to keep him.Shen Zechuan’s most convenient connection in Juexi was the Xi family’s connections, but he still chose You Tan to do business with Marquis Helian.

This is the master’s mind, and Yao Wenyu cannot discuss it in depth.Even if he sees through it, he can’t say it.The potted plant on his lap became increasingly bald, Yuan Zhuo said: “Looking at the latest news from Ge Qingqing, Xue Da has already got his wish.”

“What a good position in the capital’s warehouse. You are in charge of the import and export of goods in the capital. As long as you are dedicated to managing it, you can make a lot of money. Xue Da has been a rich man in a noble family all his life, and he suddenly became a down-and-out petty official.How can I bear it?Xue Xiuzhuo was very careful about promoting Xue family members and refused to favor Xue family, which had already caused criticism among the clan.” After Shen Zechuan said this, he chased Xiao Xun and frolicked at the end of the corridor, “Since I saw it that day, I didn’t look for you again.”

“Xue Xiuzhuo has acted carefully and will show no mercy if he wants to kill me. Even if the master is alive, there is no cure for this leg or this poison. Since he is young, there is no need to embarrass him.” Yao Wenyu said calmly, “There is no need to force this matter, it depends on God.”

Xiao Xun fell to the ground, quickly got up, and ran away with the grass clippings in his pocket.

Yao Wenyu let go of the scissors and did not indulge in it. He continued: “Your Majesty is in good health and is neither arrogant nor squeamish. I think he is talented and intelligent and can read well. If you have gentlemen to teach him in the future, he will surely live up to expectations.”

Shen Zechuan said nothing.

Yao Wenyu then smiled, gave the potted plant to Shen Zechuan, and said, “Master Fu is still hesitating.”

Shen Zechuan raised his left hand holding the folding fan, pointed to the west, and said: “The world is a prison.”

Qandu is the freest place in the world, and it is also the least free place in the world.

“The nine sons of the dragon are all different,” Yao Wenyu said. “Can the wolf from Libei just run in the grass? The prince is smart, why don’t you ask yourself.”

Xiao Xun was tired of playing, but still kept his energy up, and asked Shen Zechuan to lead him back.he walked across the pond, pointed to the water surface, and said to Shen Zechuan: “Second uncle, this is a bright mirror.”

He called Xiao Chiye his second uncle, and Xiao Chiye taught him to call Shen Zechuan his second uncle.

“Well,” Shen Zechuan said, “Looking in the mirror can help you dress properly.”

Xiao Xun faced the water and patted his robe clean.

You must know that when Xiao Chiye was this old, he was still chasing the foal and wished he could sleep in a straw nest all day long.Xiao Xun looks like Xiao Jiming, but according to Xiao Chiye, when Xiao Jiming was this old, although he was not beaten, he was not as quiet.

Shen Zechuan then asked: “You came to see my husband today. Do you want him to teach you how to read?”

Xiao Xun nodded and said: “Reading can make you wise.”

“There are so many gentlemen in the house,” Shen Zechuan raised his folding fan slightly and pointed at Yao Wenyu’s house, “Why did you choose this one?”

“Mr. Cheng Feng said that Mr. Yuan Zhuo is the most knowledgeable,” Xiao Xun paused for a moment, raised his head and said to Shen Zechuan, “I want the best gentleman.”

Shen Zechuan was silent for a moment and then said: “What if there is no Yuan Zhuo?”

“Mr. Yuan Zhuo said that those who stand up cannot stand, and those who cross cannot succeed3.” Xiao Xun pointed at himself, “Even if you want the best teacher in the world to teach you, Xun’er himself must understand it, and he cannot be so ambitious.”

He speaks maturely, but at only seven years old, he is already far ahead of his age.Under the influence of Yao Wenyu, the gentlemen in the mansion would occasionally chat in the pavilion when there was no government affairs. Xiao Xun didn’t like chatting.But whether it was Xiao Chiye handling military affairs or Shen Zechuan talking about government affairs, he would sit and listen.

“Are you working so hard to become the best gentleman?”

Xiao Xun showed a strange look, he shook his head at Shen Zechuan, and said: “Xun’er is not a gentleman, Xun’er wants a husband.” He pointed at Fei Sheng, “Xun’er is not a general, Xun’er also wants a general.”

Sages recruit literary seats, and heroes enter my hub!No matter in culture or martial arts, he wants to be “the best”. This is his ambition to recruit the most talented people in the world.

Shen Zechuan squeezed Xiao Xun’s hand and stopped talking.

The new emperor granted amnesty and the six ministries were mobilized. On that day, Xue Dasheng was promoted to Neicang Dianshou. He held a banquet on Donglong Street, invited relatives and friends from far and wide, and let out a fierce sigh.He was very drunk. He was supported by Ge Qingqing and staggered home. He said: “Feng shui has taken turns. I am the lucky one and I am the legitimate son of the family.” He raised his finger and said to Ge Qingqing, “My word is ‘Ping Jing’, Ping – Jing! Xue Xiuzhuo’s word is ‘Yan Qing’, whose Qing is Yan?” he patted his chest and said with a smile, “My, my, I am heBrother, I should be taller than he!”

Ge Qingqing shook and kept saying: “Yes, I am right.”

“Uncle,” Xue Pingjing said loudly, “Yes, I am the uncle! Why should I look at him? He is a bastard, he took away my position as the head of the family, separated the family, and kicked both of us out. He is really the most ruthless person.” He waved his hands, looking like Xue Xiuzhuo couldn’t bear to mention, “Look at him, Once he became an important minister in the DPRK, he refused to help us… Is this something done by humans?”

Ge Qingqing didn’t answer.

Xue Pingjing cried more and more sadly, and finally held her hands on the wall and spit out “Wow”.

“He said that I favored my concubine… and ruined my son’s studies… so we were not allowed to see each other again…” Xue Pingjing covered his face and cried, regardless of the mess, “He is so cruel! My son, even if he becomes an unlearned and unskilled bastard in the future, he is still my son! He takes away the son of a human being, and shows no regard for human beings!”

Ge Qingqing said with relief: “The uncle has been promoted now and can talk to the father-in-law in the palace. Naturally, there will be a chance to get the uncle back.”

Xue Pingjing wiped her tears, held Ge Qingqing’s arm tightly, and said with hatred: “I see him standing on a high platform, but I also want to see him fall thousands of feet!”
