I Rely on Beauty to Stabilize the Country

Chapter 23

Views:

General Xue's family was loyal and good for three generations.

What is the concept of the three generations of Zhongliang? It means that the continuation of their family is more secure than the throne, which means that every generation in their family has general-style talents. It also means that the people are familiar with them, and the soldiers and horses are familiar with them.

The good reputation is getting stronger and stronger, and the reputation of Zhongliang is all over the champions. It is such a high honor to the outside world, and it is a sickle to the inside.

Xue Yuan's madness is based on the three generations of Zhongliang. It's madness on his father's knees, madness on his commanding generals, madness on the countless bloody lives in his hands.

No matter how respectful a general of three generations of loyal and good family is to the emperor, the emperor will not let his guard down because of this. Three generations, the generals who have been in the founding of the country are really the Xue family. Xue Yuankuang, the respect of the general, and the servility of the general are all meaningful.

Because you are afraid that I will punish your son, because you are afraid that your son will affect your whole family.

The three generations are loyal and good, and they have a good reputation. They can't be killed casually. If they kill them, they will be heartbroken, and they will have a bad reputation for thousands of years. Xue Yuan, good talent, arrogant, it is better to be mad than to be sullen.

Since ancient times, most of the wise men have a tolerant stomach.

Gu Yuanbai naturally knew what the Xue Mansion was thinking, and he had no intention of forcing Zhongliang to die. And it just so happened that Xue Yuan's madness was on the bottom line every time.

Gu Yuanbai originally wanted the protagonist in the book to succeed him and create a Daheng of Haiyan Heqing. He can also take advantage of Xue Yuan's disrespect to him in reverse, and give a stick to a sweet jujube to restrain General Xue and the future Xue Yuan, and even let the soldiers all over the world see how generous the Sage is today. .

However, Gu Yuanbai was really annoying Xue Yuan.

He took the jade pendant from Xue Yuan, and the men and women who were doing mischief in broad daylight wanted to run away when they saw that they were discovered. Gu Yuanbai said, "Catch that kid and send it to the abbot."

The guards obeyed the order, jumping over the stream like a gust of wind and heading towards the opposite side. The man who stuck his head out was startled, he got up and wanted to escape, but he moved a step slower and was directly captured by the guards who rushed over.

"What are you doing!" As the man struggled, his red belly pocket fell off, "This is Chengbao Temple! I'm a lay disciple of Chengbao Temple, why are you still arresting people?"

The guards pursed their lips, frowned, and dragged them away. As for that woman, leaving her a piece of clothing to cover her body couldn't be more benevolent and righteous.

Gu Yuanbai heard the man's shouts across the river, and when he was dragged over to take a look, he found that the lecherous monk still had a clear and bright appearance, and he asked, "Are you a lay disciple of Chengbao Temple? "

The man was pressed and knelt down, knowing that those who could enter and exit Chengbao Temple were not ordinary people, he obediently stopped struggling, but said with a bitter face: "The villain's practice has not yet reached the point of being ordained, even if it is a man who loves a woman. I didn't break the law either. The lord knows, the villain has been suffering in the temple for more than two months, and now he can't bear it anymore. I can't stand it."

They were all men, of course Gu Yuanbai knew how he felt. I wasn't angry before, but now I'm a little jealous.

Look at it, look at it, a lay disciple and half a monk are even better than him!

Gu Yuanbai asked unhappily, "Even if you are a lay disciple, you should know that this is Chengbao Temple. If you defile the Buddhist holy place like this, you are considered a lay disciple?"

The man's expression was straight, "Sir, if Chengbao Temple is really a Buddhist holy place, then the little one would naturally not dare to do so."

Gu Yuanbai narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "What do you mean?"

The man smiled and said, "Don't think too much about adults, the villain means that there are a lot of monks in Chengbao Temple, and they eat a lot of vegetarian oil and water. Many monks eat a full stomach. They can get muddy oil. This lay disciple of the villain is even bolder."

Saying that, the man shook his head and said, "This is called the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked."

"It seems that Chengbao Temple is already very rich," Gu Yuanbai murmured, unable to hold back his laughter, "Okay, very good."

The man looked at him strangely, then looked at the group of guards behind Gu Yuanbai, and finally put his eyes back on Gu Yuanbai. He looked carefully, and finally showed a slightly nervous expression.

Gu Yuanbai asked, "Whose child are you?"

The man cautiously lowered his head and replied, "The villain's father, Jingxi Zhang."

The Yu clan in Jiangnan, the Lv clan in Huainan, the Yang clan in Henan, and the Zhang clan in the west of Beijing.

These four are all big businessmen in the world, big enough to do business with the royal family. Among them, Huainan is close to the Jinghu area, and the Yu clan in Jiangnan and the Lu clan in Huainan are just one of the tyrannical forces that Gu Yuanbai intends to use the enemy's hand to conquer.

Gu Yuanbai can tolerate merchants, and he even expects more merchants who abide by their duties to appear, so as to promote social and economic development. But he can't tolerate collusion between merchants and local officials. What is tyrannical? Those who are tyrannical and powerful are tyrannical. The tyrannical gentry since Qin and Han Dynasties weakened after the imperial examination system. However, during the Qin and Han dynasties, the land was annexed and the population was annexed. within the family, and then be hereditary into a family.

They do business as business, but they want to have power and want to collude with officials. After the collusion between officials and businessmen, officials and businessmen have become powerful.

The Yang clan in Henan is modest and subtle, and the Zhang clan in the west of Beijing is not far from the imperial city, and it is also well-behaved to do things under the eyes of the emperor. Such merchants are the merchants that Gu Yuanbai likes.

It's just that I didn't expect such a coincidence that I would meet someone from the Zhang family here.

"Then how did you become a lay disciple at Chengbao Temple?" Gu Yuanbai asked.

At this time, the sun was in the sky, and Xue Yuan looked at Gu Yuanbai's face and blushed, and said very considerately: "Why don't you find a gazebo to talk slowly?"

As soon as he spoke, the man kneeling on the ground looked at him with a stunned expression, then got away and said, "Eldest son Xue?!"

Xue Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a half-smile.

The man kneeling on the ground figured it out in an instant, his breathing suddenly became heavier, and he secretly raised his eyes to look at Gu Yuanbai in anxiety and excitement. Say.

His upper body is still naked, and there are scratches and red marks on his body. When looking at the little emperor with this expression, it is hard not to raise some kind of misunderstanding.

The captain of the guard shouted: "Presumptuous!"

The man shuddered violently, hurriedly gave a big salute, and knocked deeply on the ground, "Caomin Zhang Hao pays a visit to the saint!"

Before Gu Yuanbai could speak, Xue Yuan sneered at the side and said, "Meet the sage without clothes?"

Zhang Hao's face turned red, and Na Na was speechless.

Just at this time, the guard who went to the front to explore the road came back, "Sir, there is a pavilion in front of me. I also saw the person sent by Concubine Wan, and he told Concubine Wan that she was tired and had already returned to the village ahead of schedule. ."

Gu Yuanbai nodded, followed the guards to the pavilion, Xue Yuan followed at the end, his hand was on Zhang Hao's neck, Zhang Hao was trembling, and seemed to be afraid of him.

Xue Yuan said: "Do you like women?"

Zhang Hao said cautiously, "Master Xue, the villain only likes women."

So don't take my shoulders, I'm afraid.

Xue Yuan smiled slightly, "Have you ever had sex with many women?"

Zhang Hao also laughed, and it was men who knew how to laugh a little smugly, "The villain was driven by his father to practice at Chengbao Temple because he was too lecherous."

"Oh," Xue Yuan suddenly realized, he suddenly reached out to Zhang Hao and asked in a low voice, "Look at the little emperor's lips, doesn't he look like he's never eaten a woman's rouge?"

Cold sweat broke out on Zhang Hao's head instantly, "The villain doesn't know, the villain didn't see it."

Xue Yuan let go of him with a smile, and without saying anything, took two steps forward and chased after the little emperor.

Zhang Hao breathed a sigh of relief, stroking his frightened heart and breathing slowly.

He didn't dare to say the saint, but Young Master Xue's face was easy to see, with thick eyebrows and high nose, tall and big, his energy must be very strong! The key is that he has never heard that Eldest Young Master Xue has any confidantes and beauties. I have always been obsessed with training and fighting, and there is no woman in such an energetic appearance. How terrible would it be if there was a woman

The pavilion was fairly clean, and the attendants spread a blanket on the seat. After Gu Yuanbai sat down, he took a towel and dipped it in some cold water to wipe off the slight sweat on his face.

Gu Yuanbai felt much more comfortable after he got a little cooler. He was about to ask Zhang a good word, when he glanced out of the corner, but caught a glimpse of Xue Yuan.

Xue Yuan's clothes were dragged to the point of cracking several times. Although he had cleaned up the sand on them, he could guess how much he would be injured from the clothes.

Feeling happy all of a sudden, Gu Yuanbai raised the corners of his lips, the breeze blew the Buddha, the whole person instantly felt the pleasure of traveling in the mountains, and he smiled when talking to Zhang Hao: "Where is your father's business route now? "

Zhang Hao was shocked when he heard the words, and thousands of thoughts flooded into his mind. The saint looked normal, and when he asked such a question, Zhang Hao was excited for a while, and a faint bold idea came to his mind.

He honestly and detailedly explained his father's various business routes one by one, from Henan in the north, Jiangnan down, Lizhou in the east, and Shandong in the west.

Gu Yuanbai listened carefully, sometimes pondering for a while, and asked a few questions from a sharp and sharp angle.

After some conversation, the sweat on Zhang Hao's face was already dense. A guard returned to the stream and brought back his shirt. He hurriedly put it on and wiped the sweat on his head with his sleeve.

Frightened, the emperor's thinking was clear and clear, and he hit Zhang Hao's frightened point several times.

The Zhang family in the west of Beijing has been a talented businessman for several generations, but the scholars, peasants, industry and commerce, and the merchants are also exploited when they grow up. One layer, that one is also peeling off one layer, but they all think that their Jingxi Zhang clan is rich and oily, and it is impossible to tell if the Jingxi Zhang clan is suffering.

For example, the Yu family in Jiangnan and the Lü family in Huainan have backers behind them, and filial piety only needs to be filial to one person. Zhang's had enough of these hardships, and they also wanted to find a backer, but it seemed that they got the news that the saint was going to build a business road.

In the winter, the Sage also released the news that the border and mutual market would be opened, but that time it was finally over. This time, after receiving the news from the Sage, Zhang Hao's father returned to the capital from other provinces.

Zhang Hao had vaguely heard about the family's plan, as if he wanted to use the hand of an official to show his sincerity in giving gifts to the saint. But he didn't expect that in the end, instead, he met Sheng at Chengbao Temple.

After Gu Yuanbai asked all the things he wanted to ask, he had a general idea in his heart, he kept his face calm, nodded and let Zhang Hao back down.

The palace attendant asked softly, "Does the sage want to have some refreshments?"

Traveling on the Holy Spirit is naturally very particular. Gu Yuanbai nodded, and the palace attendant took out a small wooden box, took out soft and delicate pastries, and brewed tea with warm water.

Regardless of the rest, the little blanket that Gu Yuanbai is sitting on is the blanket of the nobles of the court. The hair is the furniest hair on the lamb's body and then woven with soft silk, and then dyed with the juice squeezed from the plant. After several times of going back and forth, the color is evenly dyed on each hair, and after the final product is finished, the long fragrance of flowers and plants will be left on the blanket forever.

The blankets on the ground in the palace are also made in this way. Royal luxury is always between low-key details. This is the face of the emperor, and it is also the ultimate enjoyment pursued by the world.

Just such a small blanket, if the Silk Road was rebuilt, it would definitely be able to sell at a price that would satisfy Gu Yuanbai.

The national treasury stores the national financial revenue, and Gu Yuanbai also stores a lot of such luxurious and delicate things, waiting to go to the real money outside the pit in the future.

Gu Yuanbai was eating the tea in the palace, thinking about how to use the Zhang family in the west of Beijing to form a fixed business route with the nomads in the border gate.

Only then did Gu Yuanbai remember what the imperial doctor had said to him about being too thoughtful. He pursed his lips and smiled, "Okay, I don't want to."

It's rare to relax and play, and I don't want to do these things.

"You guys also rest for a while," Gu Yuanbai said. "After the rest is over, let's go down the mountain. Although the vegetarian rice in Chengbao Temple is delicious, it lacks a little meat and fishy."

The guards each found a place to sit down, the mountain breeze blew past, and Gu Yuanbai closed his eyes and leaned on the backrest to rest. After a while, he suddenly heard a few bird calls coming from nearby. He opened his eyes and saw that a few birds flew to the stone table in the pavilion and were pecking at the unused refreshments.

Gu Yuanbai reached out and picked up a piece of snack and broke it, and put it in the palm of his hand to feed the birds, but he overestimated himself. After a few birds lowered their heads and pecked a few times, Gu Yuanbai felt that his palm should be red with pain. .

He put down the broken food in his hand, looked around, and called, "Xue Yuan."

Xue Yuan, who was standing against the pillar, raised his head and glanced at him, then walked over, "Your Highness?"

Gu Yuanbai motioned him to stretch out his hand, Xue Yuan glanced at the flock of birds on the table, and suddenly smiled.

He obediently stretched out his hand, obediently asked the Holy Master to put the broken food in his hand, and when the birds were vigilant and wanted to step forward, they obediently remained motionless.

In the end, his human-shaped bird feeder was trusted, and the birds pounced on him, burying their heads in his palms and pecking at them.

Xue Yuan's palms were all the wounds that had been rubbed by dragging before, but the light pecks of these birds did not make Xue Yuan feel any pain, but rather itchy.

"Your Majesty," Xue Yuan said, "Is the minister not obedient enough?"

Gu Yuanbai said: "Being obedient will not hurt my horse."

"The minister was also punished by the sage and returned."

"You dare to gallop with me."

Xue Yuan smiled, he clenched his hands tightly, the birds flew in groups, and there was a bird that didn't have time to fly away and was directly held in his hand. With his other hand, he touched the constantly chirping bird, and a bird's head appeared from the palm of his hand, "The bird's feathers are soft, why don't you try to touch it?"

Gu Yuanbai raised his hand lazily and rubbed a few hands on the bird's head, "Shang Ke."

The bird's feathers are gray, and the jade-like fingertips are even more delicate when they are touched. Xue Yuan glanced down, and the gloomy evil spirit in his heart suddenly found a way out.

The little emperor doesn't seem to like being touched
