253: I have pitted myself(1/2)

The most vicious thing Li Jinyi did in her life was probably the ill-hearted words of Queen Gu when she was dressed in Fu Lanyun, but now Fu Lanyun can even go ashore to become a good person. I think the Queen would not think of dealing with a small person like her.

Li Jinyi's husband was Mei Jin, and his ancestors had been named Tinghou. Unfortunately, his descendants gradually declined. In Mei Jin's generation, he loved reading, outstanding literary talent, and good at management, so he climbed up step by step.

But he was a little shallow, and the help at home was almost gone. Li Mu, who had been struggling for several years before he got to the Huangsha story of Guan Ren, later he tried his best to become a disciple and then married Li Jinyi.

Mei Jin looked at his wife's frown. Although she tried her best to cover it up, she was a couple and he was a good observer and naturally found clues.

Mei Jin is good at climbing and is particularly gentle to his wife. He asked a few questions in a whisper, but Li Jinyi couldn't hold it in and said it.

Mei Jin immediately realized that the opportunity had come, and wealth was in danger, how could she let go of such a good thing?

Others are afraid of the Pei family in Hedong, but he is not afraid. After all, he has no good money to lose. If he can succeed, he will naturally go further. Even if he cannot succeed, he will just miss the opportunity.

Li Jinyi looked at her husband's shining eyes and grabbed his hand in fear for a moment, her voice trembling, "Husband, don't be impulsive."

Although Mei Jin thought she was a villain and did whatever she wanted to climb up, she was the only wife who was not very smart but never looked down on him. When he tried his best to plan for the marriage, she happily married him and never despised him for his humble official position.

Seeing his wife's fear and fear of something happening to him, he smiled even happier, putting the person in his arms, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? What are my father-in-law in charge of what dares me to do?"

When Li Jinyi thought about it, her father had the final say in prison, she breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "I don't know what to do. I always feel that Princess Dingbei is not at ease and wants to drag us into the water. I am afraid, I just hope that our family will be fine."

Can Li Jinyi not be afraid?

I remember that she had mocked the queen at the beginning, and I wish the queen could never remember her for the rest of her life.

"I know, don't worry, even if I don't believe me, I can't believe my father-in-law?" Mei Jin teased with a smile.

Li Jinyi remembered her father's cautious attitude, and thought that her husband's words made sense, so she felt a little relaxed. "Then you discuss with my father carefully, don't be impulsive, don't fall into someone else's tricks."

"I know, you have a rest. I will go to see my father-in-law and follow my father-in-law's instructions." Mei Jin comforted his wife, then tidied up and got up and went out.

Instead of going to see his father-in-law directly, he went to ask for his immediate boss Han Shu.

Who is Han Shu?

He is the younger brother of Princess Zhao. When King Zhao abandoned Bingzhou and fled back to Huikang, King Xinle was still good when he was there. After the new king ascended the throne, King Zhao did not dare to cause trouble at all. It seemed that he had no such person in Huikang. It was beyond ordinary people to be so cowardly.

However, Princess Zhao's younger brother Han Shu was an ambitious and capable person. She sat as safe as a mountain of officials as a Sili School Captain. Even after His Majesty ascended the throne, he did not take his anger to remove him. However, it was difficult to go further. With the thunder of King Zhao, Han Shu's promotion was very difficult.

As Han Shu's direct subordinate, Mei Jin has found out the relationship here since she used her father-in-law to seek this position.

Now that such a good thing has hit me, with his current status, this pie will definitely not be able to be taken by himself, so he can only find someone to take him with him.

Of course, it is not impossible for my father-in-law to do it, but if he takes a wrong step, although he has some plans, his father-in-law and his family are deeply in love with him, so he cannot drag them into the water.

After thinking about it, his boss is the most suitable one.

Even if something goes wrong, with King Zhao here, Han Shu was scolded by His Majesty. I think his official position can still be saved.

But if things can be done, his father-in-law will definitely get a share of the pie. Although it is dangerous, he will try his best to minimize... Even if he is implicated, as long as his father-in-law is safe and sound, it will be difficult for him to make a comeback.

You can try it.

Wealth and honor are in danger, but if you don’t take risks, how can you eat the pie you’ve lost?

Mei Jin never stopped her mind along the way. When she saw Han Shu, the relaxed expression on her face immediately became serious, and she looked worried.

Han Shu is a tall man with a straightforward temperament but shrewd. Looking at the look of his subordinates he values, he knows that something is wrong.

"Yu Ting, you came in a hurry, but Is there something wrong?" Han Shu called the person into the study and spoke.

Mei Jin's expression on her face became even more entangled, and she sighed loudly after hearing this, "Sir, I have received an important news. After thinking about it, I still want to report back to you, but I don't know whether this matter is true or not, so I am very entangled in my heart."

When Han Shu heard Mei Jin's words, he immediately said, "Oh? I'm a little interested in making Yuting so embarrassed. Come and listen."

Mei Jin organized the language carefully. Although she had thought about how to say it on the way she came, she was still a little nervous at this time and sweated slightly in her palm.

Han Shu looked at Mei Jin's appearance more seriously. After hearing Mei Jin's words, he was shocked for a while and said nothing.

Mei Jin stood there waiting quietly without opening her mouth.

I don’t know how long it took, but when Mei Jin thought there was no hope, she listened to Han Shu and said, “Can you be sure whether this news is true or not?”

Mei Jin smiled bitterly, "I can't make up for my subordinates, but I can hear some rumors from Princess Dingbei. I think there is some shadow of this matter."

Mei Jin was not stupid. She did not directly pull Princess Dingbei into the water, but instead used a tone of doubt. His current official position was too low, and no matter which one it was, it was not easy for him to offend. Moreover, the more plausible news was, the more convincing it would be.

Sure enough, Han Shu's expression became solemn.

"Your wife and Princess Dingbei are still in contact?" Han Shu looked at Mei Jin and said, although she was in a plain tone, she had a somewhat questioning tone.

Mei Jin nodded slightly, "I heard from my subordinates that I often had dinner with Princess Dingbei and others in the boudoir, but I met several times."

Han Shu smiled gently, "This is interesting, Yuting, what do you think about this matter?"

Mei Jin looked thoughtful, and then said seriously: "My sir, although his subordinates have a low position, they also know that the disputes between the Pei family and the imperial examinations in the court have been very serious during these days, and the Pei family and Empress Gu have always had conflicts. His Majesty also favors Empress Gu, but I am afraid that this matter is true."

Of course, Han Shu knew more than Mei Jin. The relationship between Empress Gu and Pei Yunsong was not a disagreement, but a irreconcilable situation.

From this point of view, Empress Gu will definitely not hope that the Pei family will have hope of turning things around. It is not impossible to "sick" Pei Xiu died in prison.

One Pei Ji has died in the Pei family, if another Pei Su dies...

Han Shu immediately confirmed that this matter was probably not a false statement. If Mei Jin's father-in-law was appointed as Huangsha's scripture, if he could start with him, he would definitely achieve half the result with twice the effort.

Han Shu has been in this position for a long time and has not been able to move. In fact, if he cannot be promoted, he still hopes to continue to stay in this position.

But Your Majesty is not the King of New Les who is easy to fool around. He has been trembling over the past year. Because of his brother-in-law, he was afraid that Your Majesty would remember the incident of his abandoning Bingzhou and running away, so he did not dare to show off in the limelight in his work...

But if I abandon my secret and turn to the open this time, I can express my loyalty in front of His Majesty...

Han Shu's heart suddenly became hot, but his face was still calm. He looked at Mei Jin and said, "It's a big deal at this time, it involves the prison, Yuting, you have to think about it."

Mei Jin was often relieved. Han Shu was taking the bait and was willing to take risks. He immediately said: "I am willing to share the worries of the adults, but I have to try my words with my father-in-law. You know that my father-in-law has always been upright. However, this move is to share the worries of Your Majesty. The Pei family is a disaster, and the minister should be loyal to the court. I think my father-in-law should understand."

Han Shu was very satisfied. If Li Mu agreed to do this, it would naturally be much easier. As for the Pei family, he was really not afraid.

Mei Jin came out of the Han Mansion, looked up at the sky and breathed a sigh of relief, then got into the car and went straight to his father-in-law's house.

Mei Jin was running around. Gu Qingyi in the palace didn't know that Fu Lanyun would do such a brilliant operation. She was watching the account book sent by Mu Bu on the prison.

He was very surprised when he saw this. The various glassware and porcelain sold to the Hu people accounted for the most, and the benefits were the best. This time, Mubu revealed a little news to Dong Dacheng, saying that a batch of liquor was brewed. Dong Dacheng directly handed the letter to His Majesty and asked the general to keep half of it for him!

I have a big appetite, so I just open my mouth halfway.

However, Mubu really made money and was free to make money. The winemaking matter had not been successful yet, so I blew it out first.

Others, such as silk brocade and various colors of paper, have poor sales. Gu Qingyi takes notes carefully. Economic war is also a kind of war.

In later generations, economic wars were even more frequent and insidious than military wars. They exchanged fine wine, exquisite porcelain and various things that the Hu people loved for their cattle, sheep, horses and various furs, which was equivalent to hollowing out their combat effectiveness in disguise.

Building high walls and accumulating grain is scary. When a country and nation consciously accumulate strength, it must have plans.

However, when this nation and country are greedy for pleasure, all money is spent, and military strength and reserves are naturally greatly reduced.

Gu Qingyi fell into deep thought when he looked at the word "wine". Before, Mubu brewed mostly ale wine, but they could also brew sorghum wine. In addition, there are so many types of sauce-flavored white wine, strong-flavored white wine, fresh-flavored white wine, rice-flavored white wine, and sesame-flavored white wine.

We strive to achieve all kinds of specifications and all kinds of products, which will definitely meet the tastes and preferences of the nations outside the Frontier, make the liquor industry bigger and stronger, and become the pillar of the foreign trade economy of Dajin.

Gu Qingyi let go of her thoughts, recorded the unorganized things she thought of, and then slowly filled in the details. Although she was not very clear about the brewing formulas of many types of liquor, she could first make a structure for the brewing craftsmen to develop.

With this battle between Song Fengyu and the aristocratic family in the court, it can be seen that military power is only one of them, and economic power is also very important.

Although it is vulgar to talk about money, it is really awkward to have no money.

Gu Qingyi slowly wrote on paper with a pen, writing whatever she thought of. At the end, she found that she had written about grain.

Yes, to make wine, you must have good food. Good food can make good wine. To grow better food, you must improve the grain...

Gu Qingyi was silent. Why did she feel that after a walk around for the last time, it seemed that she had tricked herself into it?

Song Fengyu came back with a brisk pace. Although there were still obstacles in today's discussion, it was a little weaker than before, which was also a good signal.

Although it was already winter, he came back quickly and sweated faintly on his back.

When he entered the hall, a warm breath came to his face, making him feel even more hot. He took off the fox fur and threw it on the hollow carved clothes hanger. He walked around the four small mountain and water screens and entered the inner hall. When he looked up, he saw that the brazier in the hall was burning vigorously. Gu Qingyi was sitting on the cushion in a cushion and lowered his head and wrote something.

He slightly heaviered his footsteps, and saw Qingqing raise his head when he heard the sound, and a smile appeared in an instant, "Are you back?"

Seeing that she was about to get up, Song Fengyu quickly stepped over and sat down next to her, "What are you writing?"

She always likes to write and draw, and is imaginative. Sometimes he doesn't know what she is writing when he picks it up. He likes to be lazy when writing words, but he lacks arms and legs.

Gu Qingyi briefly explained what Mubu said. In the end, Gu Qingyi said: "The improvement of grain seeds is the most important thing. I was thinking that the grain harvested in Huzhou will be transported to Huikang this winter as grain seeds. What do you think?"

The grain seeds in Huzhou have been improved several times, at least much better than the grain seeds grown in Huikang now. Gu Qingyi’s own strength is still too small. She and Xiao Yushu can’t optimize much. Not only is it difficult to say, it is easy to be exposed.

If the grain from Huzhou can be transported to Huikang as a grain seed, then Gu Qingyi will have a lot of room for operation and will not attract attention or doubt.

Grain output is a very objective reality. It is also a mu of wheat, and the yield of Huzhou can reach 300 to 400 kilograms, while the yield per mu of Huikang is already high.

In this time and space without fertilizer, the land cannot be top-dressed, and the fertility is insufficient, so the grain output will naturally not increase.

Fertilizing farm fertilizer is also a very realistic problem, but Gu Qingyi is not very good at this.

When Song Fengyu heard Gu Qingyi's speech, he thought for a while and said, "It's not impossible. If you set off now, you can catch up with the spring seeds."

Gu Qingyi nodded, "I think so too, but you have to think about how to replace the food."

It is impossible for the food from Huzhou to be sent to Huikang without money. Why don’t the people eat?

There is a process of replacement or purchase here. Gu Qingyi doesn't care about these things. Song Fengyu has always been fair in his work and cannot make Yuzhou suffer a loss.

"Can you be sure that the grain from Yuzhou is transported to Huikang?" Song Fengyu asked as he looked at Qingqing.
