Gu Liang Yiqing: You called me here just to be cute?

"Having said that..." Gan Yi took another look at the two letters spread out in front of her eyes, "They must not forget the purpose of this trip, business is just a cover, don't take it as mining jade."

Gu Xiaowu stepped forward and replied: "It is precisely because business is just a name, so we have to spare no effort. Don't worry, Prime Minister, all of this should be done according to plan."

"Okay..." Gan Yi tidied up the documents in front of her, and said to her, "The truth should be written, and the Ministry of Households will allocate another 5 taels to the two of them. There must be no mistakes."

"It's natural." Gu Xiaowu hooked the corner of his mouth, and everything was hidden in the darkness again.

When Zheng Tingting welcomed Lu Qiueryang to the door again, she was surprised to find that Chang Ming hadn't arrived, but Lu Qiueryang brought a naive little girl with bright eyes and immature face. She was really cute. Curved the corner of his mouth, looking at that posture, he might wish to hold the little girl in his arms and feed him some pastries.

"My master has been spending time near the mine these days, and he really has no time to spare, so he ordered me to bring the eldest lady to the door, and I would like to ask my lord and Qingzi to forgive me." As soon as Lu Qiuer Yangfang finished speaking, Gu Liang Yiqing on the other side went away. Obediently lowering her luggage, Zheng Tingting saw the situation and quickly welcomed the person in, and explained to Tu Weili.

"He went to pick jade? Did it go well?" Wei Li lazily leaned on the chair, letting Lu Qiu Eryang give her the needle, there seemed to be another look of contempt in her eyes.Luqiu Eryang couldn't help being suspicious of this appearance, Wei Li held her breath, and when he opened his mouth to explain, she slapped him on the forehead with a cold snort.

"It's not going well at all. We have come from a long distance, and the manpower is scarce. The master is looking around for labor to pick jade for him."

"Humph", it really was a cold snort, Luqiu Eryang seemed to sense a cold wind blowing on his forehead, and Wei Liyou said leisurely: "How can it be so easy, the people here live by grazing animals all the year round, let them touch it." Iron pick pouted, it would be better to tell them to bury themselves alive to fertilize water plants."

"Your Excellency is really extraordinary." Lu Qiu Eryang put on a sincere smirk, glanced at Gu Liang Yiqing who was accompanying Zheng Tingting, saw that the two were very friendly, and finally felt a little relieved, and then said: "My master As a merchant, many people said that as Jiang Yuan, he shouldn't do such things, but the adults have never said such things, and I admire him for being so broad-minded."

Wei Li heard the words, but she didn't accept his good words, instead she smiled heartily.

"Han people have a lot of rules." She seemed to think of something disgusting, and curled her lips with a distorted expression. "Our Jiangyuan has never been a low-browed person. They raise children for the Xingzhu and also control the government. It is even more extraordinary for several generations of Wang Qing to cross the sword and mount the horse."

Lu Qiu Eryang thinks of Li Changming who is far away and Gu Xiaowu who has never met before, and he feels endless sympathy for them in his heart. The past struggle for power and profit and hidden courage are all hidden in the water, and the proud and powerful days in the future are all hidden. Flying high in the sky, many things seem to have been doomed at birth. If they were not Han Chinese, perhaps they would not have to suffer so much.Lu Qiu Eryang shook his head hastily—why didn't he say that they would not be so troublesome if they were born?

Seeing the opportunity, Gu Liang picked up a piece of mustard pancake and whispered to Zheng Tingting as he ate it slowly, "This is the best place. Brother, it's hard work in the Central Plains."

"You like it here?"

"I like it", Gu Liang Yiqing shed tears of sympathy for her pretended childish words and deeds, but she still stretched out her hand to touch the smooth fur collar, and said in a tender voice: "Brother, don't be angry here. I'm very happy, I don't want my brother to go back to the Central Plains."

Zheng Tingting touched her hair lovingly.

"Sister", Gu Liang Yiqing picked up another piece of mustache and handed it to Zheng Tingting, "Let's eat together."

Zheng Tingting took it with a smile on her face, and split the pancake into two. It was intended to give Guliang a chance, but unexpectedly, the girl gave half of the pancake to Wei Li, which immediately made Zheng Tingting quite upset. Wei turned her head away shyly, only Lijian was in a good mood.

Changming looked around and saw that the vast grassland had not yet sprouted new shoots, leaving only the withered yellow mixed with the land straight to the sky, making him return to the deserted city and desert in an instant, but when the cold wind blows, he should It's time to wake up.

"This place is not far from the mine," Chen Ying said while fiddling with the map in her hand, "I've already inquired about it. There have been endless civil turmoil in the past few years, and recklessness can be regarded as a poor livelihood. Originally they lived by grazing cattle, but between the civil strife , people panicked, grazing became more and more unsustainable, and now the grass is as tall as a man, and the sheep are as skinny as a mouse."

Before the words fell, a sheep swayed from side to side in front of Chang Ming. Its coat color was dull and thin, and he immediately understood what Chen Ying said.

"Everyone is waiting for the spring to grow the grass, so that they can be stocked." Chang Ming gathered the cloak on his body and walked forward with Chen Ying. , can only count on those scrawny sheep. The Helian sisters told me that they were running around looking for people to dig mountains and jade for us, but very few people nodded in agreement..."

"They are not the people who work on these things." Chen Ying put away the map, "It won't work for a while."

"Can you do anything?"

"We brought a lot of grain, and I ordered people to transfer some more from the Central Plains, and use this grain to exchange the sheep in their hands."

"Change sheep?" Chang Ming was puzzled.

Chen Ying said confidently: "Yes, those thin sheep are their only hope. They can only be fed for seven or eight days, but they have no grass to find. The turmoil within a few years has caused them to cut off their rations. Even if we go out Half a month's food, they will also nod."

"I know they want to live one more day." Chang Ming shook his head in disbelief. "But without the sheep, let alone having cubs in the coming year, it can be regarded as a complete severance. For the sake of long-term planning, how can they not know?"

"For hungry people, the beginning of spring is too far away..." Chen Ying looked back at the way she came from with misty eyes, "Some people have a long-term perspective, but naturally some people only focus on the immediate. You don't have to worry, just give it a try."

"You are becoming more and more like a treacherous businessman."

Chen Ying glared at him, then smiled without saying a word.

After Chen Ying gave some instructions, Chang Ming went with her to the residence, but on the way, he ran into Lu Qiu Eryang who came to look for her.

"How many people have been fooled by her face?" Luqiu Eryang complained, "Zheng Tingting couldn't put it down when she saw her. Let her stay at the house for a few days, and she still wants to send me away." Recommend it to He Suifeng to diagnose and treat that traitor."

The "she" that Lu Qiu Eryang said naturally refers to Gu Liang Yiqing, who is not old and always looks like a child.Chang Ming remembered that when he took over the position of battalion commander, when he went out, he said that Gu Liang Yiqing was his younger sister, and no one doubted it. Now, it seems that there is nothing wrong with saying that Gu Liang Yiqing is his daughter. Can't help complaining sadly many times that time is not forgiving.

But even so, he couldn't complain along with Lu Qiu Eryang, comforting each other with a confident but helpless expression: "It should have been expected, so we can save a lot of time and see He Sui sooner." rich."

"So what if we meet him? Is he willing to be our internal response? When he betrayed the Ningwu army, he should have expected that there would be no way out."

"Ke Yijing told me that there might be something else wrong with this matter, so I should inquire carefully. In any case, if you control one more reckless courtier, you will have more chances of winning."

Lu Qiu Eryang lowered his head and rubbed the corners of his eyebrows, his originally sharp face seemed to soften a bit, sighed and said: "Since that's the case, I'll go back and prepare. Stroke is not a mild illness, and it takes some effort to win people's trust."

"Don't worry," Chang Ming hurriedly stopped Luqiu Eryang, who was in a hurry, "you have worked hard for days, and the disease of stroke cannot be cured in three days and two nights. If you take a day off, he won't die What's more, Qingxian always blames me for keeping you busy, I really can't stand him, he can't see you on the bed tonight, so he has to tear down my house."

Lu Qiu Eryang scratched his head in pride and embarrassment, and murmured: "Why, after you married the third master, you became more and more shameless."

Chang Ming was choked by him speechless, and had to reflect on what messed things he had learned from Yi Jing all these years.

It was originally said that he would go to He Suifeng's mansion tomorrow, but Zheng Tingting sent someone to spread the word that the door of He Suifeng's house was closed and he had to wait for his son Uhati to return from the military camp before he could lead Luqiu Eryang. He Suifeng's pulse diagnosis was delayed for another ten days and a half months. It was not until Chang Ming and Chen Ying had collected enough sheep and food that they finally heard the good news from Zheng Tingting.

However, Chang Ming still spent half a day doing nothing at He Suifeng's house that day.

Even though Wei Li was furious, the old housekeeper gritted his teeth and said that his young master had something to delay, and he could only decide after the young master returned. Please continue to wait in the front hall and don't walk around casually. In the end, I will always remember Full of doubts and a smiling face, she came out to smooth things over, which relieved Wei Lian for a while.

When Chang Ming saw Uhati who came out after a thousand calls, he knew that this was He Suifeng's son without waiting for anyone to explain and introduce him.

Yijing once said that Xiao Tingxue and He Suifeng are quite similar, and now Uhati has exactly the same eyebrows and eyes as Xiao Tingxue, even if he has never seen He Suifeng, Chang Ming can roughly guess what he looks like , Thinking about it left and right is really ironic.

But there is only one face that is similar.

After entering the bedroom where He Suifeng was resting, Chang Ming noticed that the air was filled with thick dust and desertedness, as if walking into an ancient tomb that had been dusty for many years, it was dark and there seemed to be a wandering spirit.

Uhati didn't pay attention to the few people, but quickly turned around the screen and said something in a rambling manner, while Chang Ming watched the dust he walked by gradually waste in the weak sunlight, like a sky. People's nostalgia forever.

Then Uhati took out a thin thread and passed it through the screen to Luqiu Eryang's hand.

Lu Qiu Eryang was stunned and looked at Chang Ming in blank dismay.

The charm of the little cute little girl is infinite..._(:з」∠)_
