Travel through space and help the prince’s husband in construction

The emperor also gave Huo Daxing reassurance. Tell him that even if the fighting in Beiyou stops. After he returns to Beijing to receive the reward, he will return to Beiyou to station.

Moreover, their army will be responsible for the security, management and transportation of trade in Beiyou from now on. From now on, the caravans that go deep into Beiyou will also be escorted and managed by the army. That is to say, Marshal Huo's responsibilities, in addition to fighting, also include the management of customs clearance caravans.

After Marshal Huo saw the secret letter, he could clearly see that the emperor had entrusted him with another important task. He felt a little uneasy. In order to avoid the fighting in the court, the Huo family moved to the border. The emperor suddenly favored him. This favor came too suddenly and he did not dare to be too optimistic.

Marshal Huo is the grandson of Huo Sixiu, the former Taifu. He is also Xiao Yunyan's cousin.

His family has always been a Qingliu family. Huo Sixiu, the former Taifu, was the representative of Qingliu. Huo Daxing, as the grandson of Huo's family. I have been personally enlightened and taught by my grandfather since I was a child. Naturally, I have been taught by my grandfather's words and deeds in terms of literature, the way of governing a country and being a minister, and my thoughts and conduct.

Huo Daxing's literary talent was also a first-rate figure among the students of that generation. Once won the first prize. However, after his grandfather passed away, he did not want to take the civil service route. In the court, because his grandfather was the former Taifu, in politics, sometimes the political opponents would make a fuss about it and exclude him.

Be open-minded and be both civil and military. When he decided to join the martial arts, his grandfather said to him: "Stay away from the court. You can also serve the country at the border. This is a very wise choice and can ensure that the whole family is safe in the turbulent political struggle."

Huandaxing's father resigned from office at the age of 40 and followed his son to the border with his wife. Huo Daxing's wife also lived with him at the border and rarely returned to the capital.

Now, the emperor suddenly put him in high regard. It made him feel flattered. I feel uneasy. He has been at the border for twenty years. Now is the age of forty.

If the emperor didn't put him in any great use, if he served as the general marshal of the Dingbei army for a few more years, he would probably be recalled to the capital by the emperor to hand over his military power and take care of himself. Now it seems that the emperor does not want him to disarm and return to his field so early.

Huo Daxing asked the messenger who sent him the letter. Are there any big changes in the court? Why did the emperor suddenly send me such a secret letter?

This messenger is from Li Mohan's camp. He took out another letter, this letter was written by Xiao Yunyan to his cousin.

Xiao Yunyan recounted what happened in the capital in her letter. At the same time, it also reassured him that the reason why the emperor chose to reuse him was because now, the emperor's favorite prince was his legitimate son Li Mohan. Therefore, the open-minded cousin, as Li Mohan's cousin, was naturally promoted as someone from the same camp. Now, because he is already the military marshal of the northern border. There was no promotion in position, but heavy responsibilities were entrusted to him.

Xiao Yunyan told Huo Daxing not to worry, as there would be people in the court to help him, and not to worry about the supply of food. In the northern and western border areas, Xiao Yunyan hoarded large tracts of land.

The emperor also told Xiao Yunyan privately that the western and northern border gates would be given to her as fiefs next year. Now that she is hoarding more private property, she won't have any trouble.

It can be said that because of the people who fled the war, most of their land was sold to the government and then resold to Xiao Yunyan.

She also housed a large number of wounded and homeless veterans. Treat them, give them homes, and entrust them with important responsibilities. The land on the border was completely handed over to them for militarized planting and field management. Therefore, Xiao Yunyan now owns most of the land in the border city.

During the off-season, the veterans couldn't stay idle, so they reclaimed wasteland. Xiao Yunyan did not let them work in vain, and rewarded them. For every acre of wasteland they reclaimed, they were given six taels of silver.

Moreover, the local government also stipulates that the reclaimed wasteland can be cultivated tax-free for three years. Xiao Yunyan also gave them free rent and provided high-quality seeds for free, and all the profits went to them.

These veterans are in groups of ten. Members of each group reclaim a piece of wasteland and plant it together, and the proceeds are equally distributed.

With this kind of motivation, many ownerless wastelands in the border areas have been turned into fertile farmland. Of course, in the end these fields belong to Xiao Yunyan.

Xiao Yunyan did not explain the source of these lands in detail, but only told her cousin that she could provide countless grains. Nowadays, part of the grain trade in Qiangrong is provided by Xiao Yunyan. Mainly taking the high-end grain route.

If the nobles of Beiyou want to buy refined white rice and refined white noodles, she can provide the supply.

Xiao Yunyan asked her cousin to organize business talents, negotiators and strategic advisers in the army to go deep into Beiyou and help the peace faction gain political dominance.

At the same time, stabilize the hearts and minds of the people in Beiyou. It also allows the people of Beiyou to realize that peaceful coexistence and trade with Beichuan are beneficial to both parties.

During this process, she can provide medicinal materials, rice, flour, grains, and various shelled grains. If there are other businessmen who want to participate here, they can open the door easily. The premise is that the price of food and medicinal materials within Beiyou will not be affected.

There are many details, including the fact that she can provide special potions and wound medicines to ensure the personal safety of soldiers entering Beiyou.

In addition to greeting her cousins, aunts, uncles, and cousins, Xiao Yuntian highlighted her two cousins ​​and asked about their studies and whether they would like to work as officials in the future.

Xiao Yunyan's letter made Huo Daxing suddenly feel comforted. Although he is only 40 years old.

She felt that this cousin would definitely be the soul of Beichuan in the future. The Huo family no longer has to live in a corner, hiding at the border and seeking an ordinary life.

Although his two sons are now serving as soldiers in the army. However, their character is a bit like their great grandfather, and they still like the power and tactics of civil servants.

Originally he was very worried. With the current status of the Huo family. It is not suitable for two children to go to court and compete with civil servants.

Now it seems that these two children are really destined to be civil servants and counselors. Their cousin Xiao Yunyan is likely to be the queen of Beichuan in the future. The future prospects of both of them will not be too bad.

Thinking of this, Huo Daxing looked up at the sky and sighed: "Grandpa, my grandson has endured humiliation for twenty years. Now, the Huo family is finally going to regain its lintel. You are still alive in heaven, bless your grandson, and your great-grandson is in the court." , can regain a place, and also wish that your great-granddaughter Yan'er can smoothly become the future queen.

If this child becomes the queen, it will be a blessing for the people of Beichuan, and even the people of Zhongzhou. Her vision is too high and too far. I consider myself inferior. I only hope that in this life I can help her and the fourth prince reach the highest position. "
