[Southern Song Dynasty] Splendid mountains and rivers

Zhao Yuan accepted the imperial decree from her third brother with a smile, and politely invited Shi Xiao, the governor of Prince Yun's residence, and Shi Xiao, the governor of her princess residence, to have a gathering.Shi, the head of the palace, was indeed an experienced person, and immediately drew up eighteen top priorities for her, the first of which was to build the mansion.

Since her princess's fief is Yanyun, it is natural to build a beautiful princess mansion in Yanyun.

But, as we all know, the best place to build the princess mansion is not Shuozhou, but Yanzhou.

The eighteen most important matters had just been delivered to Zhao Yuan, Zhao Yuan immediately smiled and bent his eyebrows.No matter what the original purpose of the chief minister of the palace was, these [-] top priorities all helped her a lot.She was still worried about how to move these people away from her eyes, but Shi, the chief of the palace, immediately found a name for her.It's really wonderful, wonderful.

Within two days, Princess Yan's long history, as well as subordinate officials, including Yanyun's insignificant clerks, were packed and sent to Yanzhou.Zhao Yuan also generously wrote a list of eighteen items of top priority, all of which were decided by the two long historians.After everyone left, Zhao Kai seriously advised her not to bluff people like this next time.

Zhao Yuan glanced at him sideways: "Isn't the third brother also a little tired of your long history?"

"Nonsense." Zhao Kai immediately plucked himself clean.

Zhao Yuan curled his lips: "If not, why did the third brother let the younger sister support him? You know, the journey to Yanzhou is far away, and besides, the city of Yanjing is full of dragons and snakes, and it was 'borrowed', so the job is not easy .”

"You elf..." Zhao Kai was both angry and funny, stretched out his hand to pinch the tip of her nose, and then sighed, "He has been with the third brother for a long time, and there are some things that the third brother is really not good at reprimanding him. Just right Take advantage of this opportunity and let Third Brother relax for a while." After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Yuan with a smile, and there was some inexplicable deep meaning in his eyes.

Zhao Yuan laughed dryly: "Third brother, in the past two days, let's study calligraphy first."

Zhao Kai said quite seriously: "I am the military supervisor."

"Ok?"

"So, I should go to the military camp to study calligraphy." Zhao Kai said seriously.

His Royal Highness King Yun did what he said, and that night, he went to the Western Army camp to "study calligraphy" with the imperial decree, pen, ink, paper and inkstone.He has read poetry and books since he was a child, worked in calligraphy and calligraphy, and enjoyed reading steles and calligraphy every day.

Since he didn't intend to intervene, Zhao Yuan was also happy to be at ease.

Immediately afterwards, she did another shocking thing: In addition to exempting farmers from taxation, she decided to buy farmland at a high price, no matter it was barren or fertile.These days, it is best to be connected together, it is best to be in Shuozhou and Daizhou, it is best not to be far from the water source, it is best...

You know, in this era, land is basically the life and root of people.If he hadn't been pushed into a hurry, he would never have sold the land.

Zhao Yuan indeed has two brushes.

She first coaxed a group of people to sell the land at a high price, and then let out the news that Xixia and Song Dynasty were about to go to war. The safest place now was the six or seven states in the east.Since Princess Yan built her mansion on the east side, who would want to suffer from the war in the west... Princess Yan said that if you change the land from one field to another, no one can deceive you. Anyway, Princess Yan also bought it on the east side. Hundreds of thousands of hectares of fertile land are definitely enough.

Half a month later, there was a frenzy of migration in the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun.Everyone went to the princess to press their fingerprints to replace the fertile land, leaving behind the "barren" land in the west and the threat of war, and migrated to the fertile east.Anyway, farmers don't pay taxes, anyway, there are large tracts of fertile land in the east waiting to be cultivated... It's strange if you don't leave.

Zhao Yuan burned all the land deed documents, and moved as many family members of the Western Army as possible to Shuo and Dai prefectures.

Now, even Zhao Kai felt that something was wrong.Taking advantage of a sunny afternoon, His Royal Highness King Yun, the military supervisor, Jiedu envoy, Xuanfu envoy, and imperial envoy, solemnly approached Zhao Yuan and asked her about her real intentions.

Zhao Yuan replied, "It's just imitating the ancient pre-Qin system."

"An ancient system in the pre-Qin period?" Zhao Kai was a little puzzled.

"Farmers in leisure time, soldiers in wartime." Zhao Yuan replied.

Just six words, Zhao Kai was so shocked that he was speechless for a long time.

"Third Brother, don't worry about it." Zhao Yuan said with a smile, "General Zhong is training the new army and is still busy feeding the horses. He doesn't care about these small things, so I will do it for him. The people who moved to Shuo and Daizhou , most of them are veterans of the Western Army, and they have lived in the Guanlong area for many years. My sister moved their families here, but it is for their peace of mind."

Zhao Kai stared at Zhao Yuan for a long time before saying, "I just realized today, Huanhuan, you... are scary."

"Huh?" Zhao Yuan was a little surprised, "I'm not a wolf or a beast."

Zhao Kai shook his head: "Everything is big and small, you have considered it clearly and properly. What's next? What do you want to do next? The third brother originally thought that with the current national strength of Song Dynasty, he would fight The Xixia Kingdom resisted stubbornly, and it was a bit of a mantis' arm. But..." He shook his head again, and laughed dumbly, "Third Brother actually felt a little pitiful for the Xixia King."

"Third brother..."

"I heard that Huanhuan has no plans, so third brother is here, just wait and see." Zhao Kai said with a light smile, "Huanhuan should not let third brother down."

Cough, cough cough.

This kind of words of fearing that the world will not be chaotic, is it really what a prince should say?

Zhao Yuan glared at him angrily, and just about to speak, he heard the bustling people outside, as if something happened.

Zhao Kai asked her with great interest: "Go and see together?"

Zhao Yuan nodded, and walked out together with Zhao Kai.

Sure enough, there was a commotion outside.

A girl with an enchanting appearance was kneeling in the street, talking intermittently.There were quite a few people around her, most of them were soldiers of the Western Army watching the excitement.On the outermost edge of the crowd, Zhong Yi was dressed in silver armor, holding a long sword, and looked at the farce in front of him coldly, showing a bit of coldness and fear around him.

Zhao Kai called the valet and ordered him to go and see what was going on.

The personal servant came back not long after, and said out of breath: "The person here is the princess of the Xixia Kingdom. She said it was... said that she met Major General Zhong by chance when she was playing in the Song Dynasty, and then..." He glanced at him secretly. Glancing at Zhao Yuan, he stopped talking.

Zhao Yuan asked him with a smile: "Then what happened? Having sex with Major General Zhong overnight, and then conceived his child?"

The boy didn't come up in one breath, coughing chokingly.

"I really guessed it?" She looked at the Xixia princess in surprise, and then at Zhong Yi with a cold face, "How could someone believe such a clumsy lie?"

"She...she said..." The servant swallowed hard, and said nervously, "She said, if General Zhong doesn't recognize this child, he will just wait to welcome the 20 troops from Xixia Kingdom."

It turns out... so... ah...

Zhao Yuan raised his eyes and saw that the onlookers had already carved out a path, allowing the Xi Xia princess to walk in front of Zhong Yi.Zhong Yi's face was tense, and he could faintly hear the slight crackling of his joints.It seemed that he was really provoked to anger.

"General Zhong." Princess Xixia lowered her head and said weepingly: "You...you really..."

"Bring it."

"General?" Princess Xixia raised her head in astonishment, her eyes were dim with tears, and she looked quite pitiful.

"Gauntlet, I'll take it."

"General, you have to think twice..." Princess Xixia felt more and more pity for me, "If because of your one-night flirtation, the two countries of Song Dynasty and Xixia were at war, I am afraid that you will not be able to explain it in front of the emperor of Song Dynasty, right? "

She laughed twice, and looked at Zhong Yi provocatively: "In my opinion, the general might as well admit it, and become my son-in-law of the Xixia Kingdom, and live and fly with me from now on... ah!!!"

A long sword with a cold light flew out suddenly, and slashed past Princess Xixia's neck.He was impartial, just enough to wipe off a little blood, but it couldn't kill her.

Princess Xixia was shocked, she held her chest for a while, gasped for breath, giggled again, and puffed out her chest: "Here is the book of war, why don't the general come and get it?"

The surroundings were silent for a moment, and even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.

Zhong Yi held the empty scabbard, with a hint of blood in his eyes: "Do you think I really dare not kill you?"

"Yes, yes, there is nothing in this world that you dare not do." Princess Xixia smiled coquettishly, "But if you kill me and provoke the crime of war, you will still be in— —on you."
