Chapter 1002： 309 Contradictions

The outside world's various disputes over the peace talks did not affect the capital of Zhennan in the capital.

Due to the increasing summer heat, Xiao Yi got enough ice early, and two ice basins were placed in the room every day. The coolness revealed that Nangong Xi was unwilling to go out.

Meimei took a nap, and as soon as Nangong Aya got up, Lily entered the room with a large stack of books.

"Concubine Shi, the housekeeper Zhu sent the account books."

Checking accounts is generally at the end of the year, but the accounts at the end of last year were really chaotic. In the past six months, Nangong Yu also spent some effort to rectify it, thinking that he should also look at the books in the middle of the year.

Moreover, Xiao Yi needs a lot of money to raise soldiers, and she also has to see where she can move some money.

"Take me to my study."

Nan Gongxi gave a casual command and asked Bai Hui to save herself a home-made bun, only to wear a few beads, and went to the small study.

Nangong Yan looked at the books in the book case and asked casually, "Is that all?"

Lily replied: "The housekeeper Zhu said that there are still some that haven't been delivered yet. The new school's steward has just gone. I haven't had time to sort out the old accounts and I'll send them back later."

Nangong nodded and asked her to prepare tea and snacks for herself, and then she looked carefully.

The original account books were burned by the owner of Nangong, and all the accounts have been re-recorded. Therefore, each of these books is only a few pages, although it is small, but it is much clearer than the original mess.

only……

"I still don't have any money." Nangong Yan sighed with depression.

These industries that have been difficult to recover have spent a lot of money on rectification, and at least wait until next year to see some profits. I am afraid that the spending in this year will depend on the shipyard in Jiangnan and the money bank. If it is enough to support the government, the money is more than enough, but it is not enough to support an army.

And last time Xiao Yi mentioned that Fuzhong and Kailian in the southern Xinjiang had been forcibly taken over by the king of Zhennan. Both cities suffered great damage during the Nanban invasion. Xiao Yi took the initiative to exempt two years of taxation. However, urban reconstruction requires silver, and the temperament of Zhennan King may not provide a little silver for Xiao Yi's city.

Nangong Yu has a headache. In the past few months, the silver that has been sent to southern Xinjiang has been 70,000. It should be no problem for a few months, but ...

"No ... I won't show you ..."

Suddenly, there was a frivolous laughter outside, and Bai Hui, who was serving in the study, frowned, and was about to go out to remind him, but Nangong Yan simply put down his account book and exclaimed: "You come in."

The door of the study was opened, and Lily and Aunt came in a little hesitantly.

Bai Hui stared at Lily, but it was not easy to reprimand him in front of Nangong Li, but Nangong Li suddenly noticed that Lily's cheeks were slightly red.

Lily's blatant temperament blushes?

Nangong frowned, and said with amusement, "Lily, take it out and see."

Lily's face was stiff, she turned her head to stare at her, and then walked to the front of Nangong Yan with a grin, and spread her right hand. I saw a wooden ladle lying on her palm. This mule is nothing special, it looks a bit rough, like the craftsman who made this mule or a novice.

Let's look at Lily's reddish face again. Nangong Ai's mind suddenly flashed a thought, and said deliberately, "This **** is just a workman, so I can't wear it out. I'll give you a better one, so don't forget it." . "

Lily quickly withdrew her hand and shook her head in a hurry: "Second concubine, I, I like this."

"Who sent it?" A word from Nangong Su suddenly made Lily's brain not to react, so she suddenly blurted out, "It's Alan." As soon as her voice fell, she knew she had said something wrong. Quickly covered his lips with his hands and stared at Nangong Yan.

A straight-headed person is easy to use! However, I didn't expect that Lily and Alan ... obviously, their first knowledge was very unpleasant. Later, Lily looked at Alan no matter what, and now it seems that they are a pair of happy enemies.

Bai Hui was also dumbfounded, staring at her cousin with her eyes wide open, thinking: This little girl, is such a big thing hidden from herself? !!

"It turned out to be Alan." Nangong Nian nodded pretending to be contemplative, and when Lily looked at him nervously, she suddenly laughed and said, "In a few days, let Alan come to propose you."

Lily immediately opened her eyes and smiled, and nodded joyfully, without any twisting, but there were a few hearty children.

Although the eldest daughter who followed the hostess usually stays until eighteen, even in her twenties, but for the several girls who are around her, Nangong aunt naturally also hopes that they are good. It ’s okay to get married early.

It's a pity that Yimei ... Thinking of Yimei, Nangong Yan's expression was a little dark, but soon he got up his spirit and teased Lily.

Jokingly, footsteps came from outside the door, then Xiao Yi pushed in the door and walked in. As soon as Nangong Xi was in a good mood, he asked, "What happy thing can't happen today?"

Nangong stood up and greeted him. Lily was a girl's house, and when she heard the word "happy event", she couldn't help turning her face into a red one, and hurried away, pulling her cousin and her son.

Xiao Yi was confused, and Nangong said with a smile: "You're right, our family is about to do a happy event." Then he said about Lily and Alan.

Xiao Yi heard a happy face and said, "Alan's kid is really good. Lily is a good match for him."

Nangong Ying answered, "I think so too."

Alan's temperament and character are in her eyes, and she can be regarded as a good match, so she agreed.

Xiao Yi took her to sit on the beauty couch, passed the book case, noticed the stack of books placed on it, and asked casually: "... are these new books?"

Nangong nodded and pointed his fingers and said, "I've forgotten about it for the time being, and can move another twelve dollars out of it. However, it's not always possible to rely on us to move west and west together. I've thought about it, but I still have to be young It's the silver that she got out of her hands, and she doesn't know where she's got all the silver ... It's too late, I'm afraid I can't rely on the emperor this time. "

Xiao Yi had been listening with a smile. At this moment, a sly light flickered in his eyes, and said, "Speaking of which, last time, my father asked me to give half of the property to Xiao Luan, and we just divided it."

"You mean ..." A flash of light flashed through Nangong's mind, "That's good!"

How many industries Old Lord left in total is naturally Xiao Yi's account. Xiao Fang dare to say that in these years, Xiao Yi's industry has only earned a total of 6,200 silver, so they can also say, Old Lord Just leave two shops.

Give his body in his own way.

Xiao Fang wants to give Xiao Luan some more industries, and she will definitely not give up. As long as she dares to make trouble, by then, her own Xiao family will come forward.

In the end, Xiao Fangshi has occupied a "mother" status, and everyone in the world values ​​filial piety. For Nangong Yu, in order not to hinder Xiao Yi's reputation, it is worth even more effort.

"Counting the time, it's time for the imperial edict to arrive in the southern Xinjiang ..." Nangong Yu couldn't wait.

Speaking of southern Xinjiang, soldiers in the battalion of Luo Yuecheng are still training in the southern Xinjiang, a thousand miles away.

Just listening to the direction of the martial arts from time to time heard the soldiers stepping, shouting, the sound of weapons collision ... one after another, endless.

At the gate of the barracks, two tall soldiers were guarding both sides of the entrance. One of them had a square face and saw no one around, and quietly shouted "Three Trees." He called his companion and whispered in his ear. .

"What ?! The princess has seized the world's grandfather's property ?! Qian Dazhuang, aren't you kidding me!" Another black-faced man exclaimed in disbelief, scaring Qian Dazhuang to look around Looked, glanced at his companion, motioned him to whisper.

Qian Dazhuang continued: "That's still fake! Yesterday my mother-in-law came to see me in the camp and told me that it has spread out long ago. Why do you think the princess was sent to the Ming and Qing temple? Fined! "

Why did the princess go to the Ming and Qing temples to pray for blessings? They naturally don't know, but since they are all spreading like that now, it must be true!

Chen Sanshu was almost stunned, and he sighed after a while: "The princess's courage is too big, hey, do you think it is actually ..." Then, his voice went down, frowning, using The finger wrote a quick "king" in the air.

Qian Dazhuang immediately comprehended, whispering: "Listen to my mother-in-law saying that many people are saying this now. Whatever is said, there is a stepdad when there is a stepdaughter. It is really pitiful ..."

Suddenly Chen Sanshu's complexion changed, and he said in a hard voice: "Old money, since you have been caught by the wind, let's talk to the centurion ..."

Qian Dazhuang was confused by him, "When did I ..." Seeing his companions keep winking at him, he finally realized that he was wrong, and turned stiffly, only to see a middle-aged man in armor The man was looking at them not far away with sharp eyes.

The two soldiers busily bowed on one knee and performed the military salute: "Have met General Song!" Oops! What they said just now does not know how much General Song heard.

Song Xiaojie strode forward to the two soldiers, and coldly dropped a sentence: "Good job, don't chat!" Then he strode out of the camp.

The two soldiers frightened their legs and fought. I thought that this time, the punishment of the thirty army stick would be unavoidable, but did not expect General Song to let them go with one eye closed. The two glanced at each other with a long sigh of relief.

After Song Xiao distinguished himself in the camp, he immediately jumped onto a dark horse, and then galloped away towards Luo Yuecheng.

His eyes were dimmed and his mind was heavy. The words of the two soldiers were just the tip of the iceberg. Now what the army generals and the southern Xinjiang people think of Zhennan King is what worries him most!

Going on like this will inevitably lead to instability in the army and the people.

It seems to mention that Wang Ye is ... Song Xiaojie secretly said.

After arriving at Zhennan King's Mansion in Luo Yuecheng, Song Xiaojie first reported his military situation to Zhennan Wang Yan. After dealing with the matter, he said eloquently: "Master, what will happen if I don't know what to mention?"

The king of Zhennan looked right, and Shen said, "Xiao Jie, why can't you and me say that?"

Song Xiaojie rationalized his thoughts and said, "Master Wang, do you know the most popular new drama in the city?"

The King of the South of the Town froze in a fog.

In the past, the princess Xiaofang loved to watch operas. From time to time, the chanting sounds were heard in the house. However, when Xiaofang went to Qingming Temple, the house became much quieter. Why did Song Xiaojie suddenly mention the opera? Xiao Fangshi interceded?

In the end, they are also husband and wife for more than ten years. If Song Xiaojie really loves him, he will simply go down the steps ...

Zhennan Wang was thinking, and then he continued to listen to Song Xiaojie: "A few days ago, the drama team in the city made a new play, called" Girl Girl Teacher ". This play is about a former general named Shi , The perennial battle went out, the family to the re-married step-family Wang Shi Rong, Wang Shi treats the eldest daughter left by the original match as her own, love as treasure, but unfortunately that girl Shi Shi is coquettish and wayward, disrespectful to the stepmother Over time, General Shi Da was very displeased with the eldest daughter. On the contrary, he loved the children born in the second room. When Shi Shi was old, General Shi Da hurriedly chose her family to marry her. Notorious, the married man's reputation is naturally not very good, but no one expected that Shi girl used evil to control evil spirits, and she actually turned into a widower and became a jinshi a few years later. After that, the city There were rumors gradually that the stepmother was unkind, and that the girl Shi had tarnished herself for self-protection, but the Wang family had a sinister heart, not only deliberately killing the girl Shi, but also took away the dowry left by the original match ... "

"It's ridiculous! It's ridiculous!" Hearing here, King Zhennan finally couldn't hold back his anger and interrupted him.

What is General Shi? What's Wang?

This play is clearly insinuating his own king of the south of the town and the little concubine of the princess!

These Diaomin are really brave!

The king of Zhennan looked so dark, he said angrily, "Which opera team dares to be so bold?"

Song Xiaojie sighed for the attention of King Zhennan. For a moment, a lot of pictures flashed through his mind. Now the cities and army in the southern Xinjiang have spread, probably only the person in the bureau, Wang Ye, has nothing. Got it.

He gritted his teeth, and made his words clear: "Master, not only those opera teams, but now the people in South Xinjiang are preaching that the princess's occupation of the world is not returned ..."

The king of Zhennan looked even more ugly, and almost came up without a shot. "How did this happen ?!"

How did that happen?

After the last imperial edict arrived, he had ordered Xiao Fang to return the industry and silver, and sealed the mouth of the subordinates. This matter should have been quietly revealed, how could it have spread? Did you know the entire southern Xinjiang?

Although there is something wrong with Xiao Fangshi, his king of the south of the town cannot escape the reputation of being unruly!

Song Xiaojie sighed in his heart: This is always Wang Ye ’s family affairs. How did he get it out, how could he know?

But the face was calm and reverently replied respectfully: "Master Wang, the scholars in the cafes and restaurants in the city are now talking about each other and talking about it. Some people say that Wang Ye is confused, being controlled by a woman, and treating his parents and children. As an enemy, it was only after that that he would not send troops for reinforcements. Even when Shizi won the Fuzhong and Kailian cities, the prince insisted on robbing him. Even some people suspected that the princess's move was directed by the prince ... "

All in all, that is to say, King Zhennan was coaxed by the princess and was so confused that he couldn't see his son's prosperity; he sighed that his son was pitiful, in order to protect himself, he grew up peacefully when he was a child; Not stained.

With Song Xiaojie's statement, the Zhennan king was furious and said, "One nonsense! Will the king still covet such a bad boy!"

"Of course, Wang Ye," Song Xiaojie hurriedly said, "the problem is that outsiders don't understand why!"

Song Xiaojie sighed secretly.

In fact, it is not surprising that some people said that Lord Wang. Since his return to South Xinjiang last year, his bravery has been outstanding. He has been the first soldier in the battles, led his troops to kill, and finally defeated the South Barbarian. Looking up and down, Wang Ye disappointed the generals again and again, so that he gradually lost his heart and the people.

In contrast, Shizi ’s prestige in the southern Xinjiang is now sky-high, and I do n’t know how many people secretly admire Fuzhong and Kailian. They can be kissed by Shizi. And the people in the two cities are based on the grandfather of the son of the world, with high fighting spirit and strong morale. The reconstruction of the two cities is methodical. The people have a faint tendency of "only knowing that there is a grandfather, but not a king"! But these people couldn't tell Wang Ye himself.

After talking about Wang Ye, he wouldn't listen. When thinking about Wang Ye being angry with Shi Zi, refusing the silver needed for Fuzhong and Kailian reconstruction, Song Xiaojie couldn't help sighing secretly. Isn't this deliberately giving people a handle?

No wonder the two cities are loyal to Shizi.

Song Xiaojie stopped talking and finally had to say implicitly: "Prince, now the rumors are becoming more and more fierce. For the reputation of the Prince and the palace, please invite him to" persuade "the princess to show ..." Only let Xiaofang Only when they come out to admit their mistakes can they stabilize the people's hearts in southern Xinjiang.

But what Song Xiaojie said later, the King of Zhennan had completely lost his ears, and his forehead was so angry that he murmured, "How can this be, how can this be!" In my heart I just felt that the entire South Xinjiang was watching his joke now. , Laughed at his confused head, laughed at his inability to know gold inlaid, laughed at a woman holding his nose away ...

The king of Zhennan became more and more angry, and suddenly felt a suffocation in his breath, raised his hand to cover his chest, his face was pale, and even faintly blue, his mouth was gasping, and his eyes were a little white ...

Song Xiaojie felt that Zhennan King was a bit wrong and exclaimed, "Master Wang!"

The words didn't end, and the King of Zhennan had already fallen down. Song Xiaojie hurriedly couldn't get up, supported the King of Zhennan, and yelled: "Have a doctor, please! Lord Wang fainted ..."

The news of King Zhennan's fainting spread all over the palace immediately. Some people invited the doctor, some went to the study room to help move King Zhennan to the bed in the main room, and hurriedly notified The principal Wei Fangfei and several sons and daughters.

After a while, Doctor Wang, the doctor in the palace, sweated heavily and carried the medicine chest. Then, the side concubines Wei, Xiao Luan, and Xiao Yan rushed over when they got the news.

While Doctor Wang gave Zhennan King a needle, Wei turned his head to Song Xiaojie and said, "General Song, I heard that when Lord Wang fainted in the study, the general was right there. What happened?" His voice was soft and polite, and there was a deep concern in his eyes, but there was no questioning.

Song Xiaojie replied with a respectful expression: "Return to the concubine, let's talk about it until Lord Wang wakes up."

Wei's eyebrows were lightly frowned, and his eyes were half down, without asking anything.

Xiao Luan on the side said dissatisfied: "General Song, my father is now like this, what else can't we tell us, have to wait for my father to wake up? In case ..."

Xiao Luan was about to rebuke, and he heard a girl-in-law yell in surprise: "Master Wang ... Lord Wang, wake up!"

When Xiao Luan swallowed to his mouth, he turned his head and saw that Zhennan Wang on the bed was awake, his face was still a little pale, his eyes were awful. Where is it like the majestic Zhennan King on weekdays? .

"Master Wang, you finally woke up, but you are worried about dying." Side concubine Wei was sitting at the edge of the bed diligently, and greeted the king of Zhennan with his booze. "I know that Wang Ye has always been busy with business, but Wang Ye still needs to take good care of him. The body is. "

Seeing the Zhennan King awake, Wei's heart was slightly relieved. If Zhennan Wang was really ill, she was not afraid of anything else, and she was afraid to give the princess Xiao Fangshi an excuse to return to the palace.

Although the princess will come back sooner or later, Wei still hopes to wait until she closes the palace to go up and down.

King Zhennan patted Wei's hand lightly, signaled that he was okay, and then looked around weakly, "You all go out first, my king has something to tell General Song."

Wei said in a soft voice, and retreated with Xiao Luan and Xiao Yan brothers and sisters, thinking: still have someone to ask what the Lord Ye and General Song said ...

After waiting in the room, only himself and Song Xiaojie were left. King Zhennan was stern and said to Song Xiaojie sternly: "Xiao Jie, pass the king's order, the entire South Xinjiang, if anyone dares to argue the right and wrong of the palace, stick Responsible for the twenty big boards; if you repeat it, you will be punished with capital punishment! "

Song Xiaojie was shocked and said, "Master Wang, this ..."

He felt that Zhennan King was confused, right? If this order was given, wouldn't it more confirm the rumors? I'm afraid there will be more people who suspect that everything was directed by King Zhennan ...

"Just do what my king said." The king of the Zhennan cried.

Song Xiaojie sighed, "Yes."

Song Xiaojie retreated. Although he was unwilling, he could only follow the order of King Zhennan.

After some severe punishment, no one dared to talk about it on the surface. However, as Song Xiaojie was concerned, all the speculations of the people seemed to be confirmed by the untimely order of King Zhennan. As a result, the Zhennan king's indulgence of the princess' harsh treatment of his parents and children spread in the back faster than before.

In just two days, even the oldest girl Xiao Zhen from the Zhennan Palace received the news. She frowned slightly, and met the Zhennan King who was still on the hospital bed, saying she wanted to visit the mother-in-law in Ming and Qing Temple.

In the days when King Zhennan was resting on the sickbed, **** let Xiaoxiong go out to inquire. Sure enough, those drama groups, storytellers, and scholars had settled down, and no one dared to discuss the privacy of Wangfu. He felt that his decision was really correct. To deal with this group of Diaomin, they should let them know respect and inferiority.

The king of Zhennan was in a good mood and in a good spirit. Even the illness seemed to be cured. So Xiao Xiao asked for a mention, and he immediately responded.

After Xiao Blessing got blessed, he retreated. The king of Zhennan was planning to let Xiao Biao take a look at the book. A messy footsteps suddenly sounded outside, followed by a slightly anxious voice: "Master, the angel is here, Come to preach the decree! "

The king of Zhennan frowned suddenly, how could there be a decree again? ?

There was an ominous hunch in his heart. The imperial edicts of the emperor have been almost endless since Naizi returned last time, and they add up more than the previous ten years, and there is no good thing.

But even if he was displeased in his heart, the King of Zhennan could only help him change his robe and went to the front hall to meet the angel.

To the surprise of King Zhennan, the imperial edict was originally given to the concubine Xiao Fang!

But according to the will of the emperor, the king of Zhennan had to listen to the will together.

Although it is not known what is in the imperial edict, the king of Zhennan was already sinking in his heart, and the ominous foreboding became stronger.

The king of the south of the town instructed his servants to take some time and took a red-roof carriage to accompany several people from the palace to the Ming and Qing temples.

Three hours later, Zhennan King and Xiao Fangshi knelt together in the courtyard of the Ming and Qing Temple to obey.

The little internal servant was procrastinating with the sharp voice, but Xiao Fangshi heard only one sentence, and felt the noise in his ears.

how can that be possible! ?

Is she dreaming?

She's the prince of the south! How could the emperor kill her princess?

In the history of Dayu, that was the first time ever!

Xiao Fang's entire body froze. The first reaction was to jump up and hit the mouth of the housekeeper. He wanted to tear off the imperial edict and wanted to treat all this as a nightmare ...

With all thoughts flashing by, she calmed down quickly.

It is an irreversible fact that her death was taken away, but southern Xinjiang is different from Wangdu. In southern Xinjiang, the king of Zhennan is the emperor. As long as the king of Zhennan is willing to protect her, even if she does not have the death of her princess, she also Not afraid! Who dares to disrespect her!

After the king of the south of the town ordered Mingren to send out the servant, Xiao Fang blinked, and a layer of mist appeared in his eye sockets, his eyes dimly looked at him, and he whispered, "Master, you are wronged ..."

She was wronged, wiping the tears in the corner of her eyes with her cuffs, kneeling on the ground and crying sobbingly, it seemed weak and sweet, but when her eyes met the cold eyes of the king of the south of the town, the whole person suddenly fell like an ice kiln .

As if something happened that she didn't know happened?

Zhennan Wang looked at her coldly, and said sharply, "Xiao Fangshi, what is going on?"

In the imperial decree, it is unkind to mention Xiao Fang as a mother, and to treat his step-child Xiao Yi, which is not worthy of the princess's honor.

"Master Wang ..." Xiao Fang's tears shed, and Jiaomei's face was full of sorrow. "Yi Shen didn't know how to return. Last time you asked him to return to him the silver and property that Ayi kept. His body has also been returned. But why ... Lord, this body is really wrong. "

Xiao Fangshi cried while paying attention to the look of King Zhennan, and said carefully: "Ai Yi is still angry with him? Treat him as if he were his own son, you know, Lord. Not selfish ... "

For more than a couple of years, the King of Zhennan would have no feelings for Xiao Fang's, but when I think of the rumors in the South Xinjiang these days, he thinks that he has also been stigmatized for murdering his parents. There was a resentment in his heart, and the look at Xiao Fangshi was a little colder.

"Enough!" King Zhennan interrupted her impatiently and waved his hand wearily. "Xiao Fangshi, the king is too lazy to care about what stupid thing you have done, anyway, the king's face is lost to you That's it! "

"Royal ..."

Xiao Fang stepped forward to grab the sleeve of King Zhennan, but he flung it away.

Zhennan Wangfu's good reputation was ruined in the woman's hands! King Zhennan took a look of disgust, and he took a deep breath and shrugged his sleeves coldly: "The emperor's will has been given. The king looks quite clean in this temple. You should just cultivate yourself here!"

He was about to leave when he turned around, Xiao Fang was shocked and scared, and walked on his knees. He hurriedly grabbed his robe and said, "Royal, please ..."

In the past, Xiao Fang's voice sounded like Yingying Yan, but at this moment it sounded like a sparrow, and the king of Zhennan kicked his right foot fiercely ... Regardless of what happened to Xiao Fang's, he didn't linger. Striding away.

Xiao Fang didn't watch out, and he kicked him violently, and the whole person slammed on the cold slate ground, and the bright red blood slipped from the white forehead.

The girl looked at her nervously and asked, "Prince, are you okay?"

Xiao Fang's heart was cold and cold, and he had no idea for a moment. What if Zhennan King really hates her and lets her stay at the Qinglong Ancient Buddha in the Ming and Qing Temples?

The blood flowing from her forehead lined her face even more.

Xiao Fang's body trembled like sieve bran, the whole person collapsed, his eyes filled with despair ...

She is not reconciled! Not reconciled!

There must be a way ...
