Return the Sword

In the past month or so, many things have happened in Beijing.

The news came from the middle of the capital that Prince Ai's son Changping Wang Yanling was found in the county mansion prison. The Holy Majesty was overjoyed and ordered Wang Yanling to be the grandson of the emperor in the hall.In order to abolish the wings of the three kings, the Holy Majesty gave each to the three kings' subordinates. Xue Zhao's father, who belonged to the party of the Qin king, was also affected.At this time, the Wusun family broke away from the Xiongnu and moved to the Ili River Valley to unite with the Yuezhi people, planning to use Dunhuang as their old land.

Those Yuezhi people were scattered by Wei Wan, and only a small group of forces escaped, which is nothing to be afraid of, but those Wusun people, after all, were once dominated by the Huns, and they didn't know the barbaric spirit in their blood. Can Dunhuang City stop it?

Donghua thinks long-term, although Wei Wan said that the city of Dunhuang is strong, but there are millions of troops in the Central Plains. Every autumn when the Huns plunder the border, they are all defeated.It's just enough to keep it.The news came from Wei Wan's eyeliner, and it must not be faked, which means that if the news can reach Dunhuang, then the Wusun people will have a success, maybe at this time, they have already led the army here .

Most of Dunhuang's [-] armored soldiers gathered in Wuwei. At this time, there are not many left in Dunhuang. Twenty to thirty thousand is very good, and two to thirty thousand.

It is also that the dragon sees the head but does not see the end.Shen Mu, who was the leader, disappeared, and the other Yang Wu, since she came to the city lord's mansion, was only introduced by Wei Wan once, and now Wei Wan can't be allowed to come forward, because she doesn't know, she is the wife of the city lord , to be in charge, can you call this... It's really a headache.

Wei Wan did not give the Tiger Talisman to Donghua, so these days, the certificate Donghua can use is just a private seal of Wei Wan, and it is okay to handle some simple affairs, but to be honest, then Yang Wu is It is also feasible to take her words as deaf ears.If Donghua wants to mobilize the army with a private seal, if the person is not Donghua himself, Donghua can also laugh at it, wishful thinking.

But now, I can only pin this little hope on this wishful thinking.

There are mountains in the north and south of Dunhuang, which can be used as barriers. Xiyumen and Yangguan are still strong enough. If the city is broken, there should be news. Therefore, the enemy should only be able to come from the east.While the news is still fresh, with such an arrangement, only [-] to [-] soldiers are still reasonable.

Donghua's calculations were very loud.

"You said that Yang Wu went to the rockery with the city lord?"

But when he asked about the whereabouts of Yang Wu, a subordinate official in the mansion, all he got was this kind of answer.It was clear that he did not see that person beside Wei Wan that day, but what the subordinate officials said could not be faked, if it was true, all of this should have been expected by Wei Wan.

So... what is Wei Wan thinking about?

Shen Mu disappeared, Yang Wu was brought by his side, the army had no leader, and there was no time to forge swords, not to mention the destruction of Dunhuang City, did that person have to break in by himself, so as not to let himself suffer from such fear?Everything that can be done has already been done, and there are many warning notices sent out in various parts of the city, but no one has ever paid attention to it.

In this way, it was only Donghua who was in a hurry.What does Wei Wan want to do by herself?From the looks of it, I still don't trust her very much.The words are so clear, and I have never had any reservations about what I can show, so what is Wei Wan thinking?

The layout of the room was according to what Donghua said, and it would be good to leave only one person to wait on him. At this moment, no one called, but a maid hurriedly pushed the door in. Donghua was thinking, how could there be any good on his face His expression was immediately angry, and he was about to scold, but he didn't expect that the maid immediately fell to her knees and began to cry, talking about Xue Zhao's affairs.

"You mean Miss Xue is going back to the Central Plains?" Donghua couldn't sit still, stood up and said, "Do you know why?"

The maidservant was only half-frightened by Xue Zhao's angry face early in the morning, but she couldn't stop her afterward. After shouting loudly, for some reason, none of those blue clothes appeared on weekdays. Xue Zhao escaped by jumping over the wall.Only then did he panic, although he also called the guards in the mansion to look for him, but after going around a wall and turning to that location, the person had already disappeared.

Yes, it's still the way to run by that ladder.

Seeing that the maid's forehead was dripping with sweat, Donghua couldn't punish her. She still had to find someone to ask for it when she had time.

But Xue Zhao has been doing well these few days, why did he suddenly have this idea?Thinking of this, Donghua suddenly said: "These days, who is gossiping in Miss Xue's ears?"

For Xue Zhao to know something by himself, it must be because someone around him said something wrong.

The servant girl trembled, shaking her head and then nodding: "The younger ones are all rough people, and they usually talk about ordinary family matters, so it's okay to think about it."

Donghua felt that something was missing, and a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and hurriedly said: "I packed up all the scripts Miss Xue read these days and sent them here."

The maidservants moved very quickly, and Donghua carefully reviewed the scriptures after he was sure that there were no omissions. It turned out that it was inadvertent, but this time he jumped out of the content of the script, and when he read it again, he found... She picked up a few books from it and asked, "Why didn't these few books be sent to me?"

The skin packaging of these books is the same as the previous ones, but anyone who can read should know that these books are by no means those unscrupulous pastime books. Although they are still written by the same library, there may be some in them It is a joke about people, but it is mainly a reading that pinpoints current problems and inspires the common people.

It is a good guy used by storytellers in many teahouses for dinner.Of course, the price of each book is not low.

Under Donghua's slowly turning cold eyes, the maid said: "Miss Xue said that the bibliography is only a few books each time, and she always asks me to make a special trip to buy them. I feel very sorry. Anyway, the City Lord's Mansion is not short of these silver taels. Let's go together. I bought them all, and it doesn't matter..." There is no need to say anything else.

It was only a month, and these people were bought with a few words. Donghua understood that there was also his own help in this, and he said that he could pay another salary. Otherwise, how could these servants dare to make such a claim.

Needless to say, these books were also kept by Xue Zhao with other reasons. Donghua opened them and said: "What reason did she use to keep you from sending these books? Although it’s not thin, you can still read it sooner or later.”

The maid faltered when she spoke at this moment: "Ms. Xue said that the story is not finished. If you don't read it after a long time, you will always forget the previous part. Every time there is a new one, you have to read the previous one again."

"It's just such a lie that deceived you." Donghua saw Xue Yan's name in one of them as expected. He was reprimanded by Jinshang for discussing the salt law.

The small shows the big, Xue Yan has always been a man of talent and arrogance, although he does not have much ability, but Qingliu's subordinate is also valued by the present, even if he is criticized by the imperial censor in his usual work, the present has never really cared about it.

Presumably, rumors of Xue Zhao's death had spread to Beijing.In order to pave the way for the emperor's grandson, although this action is obvious, but at this age, there is no way.

As for the salt law, there was the Fifth Ethical Law that first established the salt law, and later Sun Shaoyou thought it was corrected. This Liu Qi took advantage of the predecessors. It stands to reason...Xue Yan is conservative by nature, but it is not enough to be with him because of this. There is a dispute today.She was at the border, and had long lost her sensitivity to matters in the middle of the capital. From such a superficial look, Donghua understood after turning the page, and there were only three or two lines of words.

Jianghuai salt was originally taxed at ten renminbi per bucket, but later the Salt Law was adopted. It was 110 renminbi per dou, and an additional 310 renminbi was added. When Sun Shaoyou took office, he added another [-] renminbi, which was considered a high tax at that time. , How did Liu Qi know about this, so he set the tax on a bucket of salt as [-] Wen.This trip is no problem for rich merchants and powerful people. Poor people all over the world. Eating meat is also a light food, and it is only today.

If this method is carried out, there will be no need for Wei Wan, and the flames of the world are just around the corner, but it is strange. He is a man today, and he was considered a hero when he was young, but he is dizzy when he is old. down.

What happened in Beijing?This is powerful and thought-provoking.

But the urgent matter is still on Xue Zhao.

This time, without the cover of night, Xue Zhao was injured again, and he couldn't run far, so the mansion panicked for a while at the beginning. The guards learned their lesson last time, and separated from the soldiers of Chengwei's mansion. After searching, within an hour, Xue Zhao was invited back by Hao Sheng.

He hid in a pharmacy, and after paying for the medicine, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy would not say much.

Xue Zhao thought that he had run away this time, and what the lady of the city lord said, she should be angry. How could she know that she just glanced at her from a distance, and called someone to send her back to her room.Could it be that he really knew her?But there is clearly no impression of this person in my mind.One month passed, and the white cloth on Xue Zhao's eyes had already been removed, but the number of times he met this princess was very few. Although he saw it, it was not careful.Passing by this time, she probably felt something in her heart. She couldn't help but look up, and there was indeed a person in her mind, and she blurted out: "My mother has always been friends with Princess Anping. You are named Donghua, but Anping Princess' daughter?"

Donghua kept in mind not to have too much contact with Xue Zhao. Although he was startled when he heard the words, he still sent Xue Zhao back by a few guards. Those maidservants changed a batch, and killed the first few who were more courageous. The big one, it is expected that there will be no more accidents, and she feels at ease.

Day two.

"She said that she had an illness when she was six years old, and she can't remember what happened before the age of six?" Donghua didn't understand why Xue Zhao had to take the initiative to deliver a message for such a face-to-face question. When she came here, she just had a bitter mouth. After knowing that Xue Zhao had forgotten all the past, she couldn't help but feel lucky that she didn't remember, and she was afraid that this person just forgot for a while. My own is another empty joy.

In this world, what makes people feel sadder than sadness is empty joy?

"That's right." The servant girl replied.

The reason why it was updated again is because... the Internet is not good, so I can only code words.
