"Is this Fengtian City? It doesn't look that great."
Shang Xiufang looked at the Fengtian City in front of her. It did not have the ancient majesty of Chang'an City or the grandeur of Jinling. The only thing worth praising was the bustling flow of people.
There are two small doors for people to enter and exit, and the central gate is the passage for carriages to enter and exit, so everything is in good order and there is no crowding even when there are many people.
But after entering Fengtian City, Shang Xiufang realized how superficial she was.
On both sides of the wide central avenue are towers over 50 meters tall with red windows, red lights and green signs.
Moreover, every hundred feet there is a watchtower that is more than ten feet high, and there are archers on it patrolling the surroundings to protect the safety of the people in the city.
"Go to Fanlou!"
Fanlou is the most lively place in the entire Fengtian City.
As soon as we arrived downstairs of Fanlou, we saw that the parking spaces below were filled with orderly carriages. There was no empty space at all, so many people had to park their carriages in the parking spaces of other hotels.
There are girls soliciting customers upstairs, eunuchs welcoming customers at the door, and thugs standing beside them intimidating customers, just like any other brothel.
"Mr. Shang, Shopkeeper Yan has already told me to welcome you here. Please come this way, carriage!"
"profound?"
Shang Xiufang looked at the humble turtle slave, her pair of charmingly beautiful eyes flashing with surprise.
The fact that Yan Shisan Niang did not come out to greet them in person showed the seriousness of the matter, even Fan Lou was trying to avoid suspicion.
.....0 .......
And the only one who can help Fan Lou avoid suspicion is that person.
At this time, Shang Xiufang was really depressed. She didn't know how she had offended which person in the Prince of Yan's Mansion to target her like this.
And it would be fine if there was a grudge, but it is obvious that the targeting was misplaced.
It just blocked the news, nothing else was done.
Just as Shang Xiufang and the eunuch were about to enter through the back door, a warrior in tight clothes came over, followed by a BMW.
When the turtle slave saw this, he quickly made way.
Because in Fengtian City, only the Prince of Yan’s Mansion uses BMW cars.
"May I ask if it's Mr. Shang in person?"
"Yes, I am Shang Xiufang, and you are..."
Looking at the warrior in front of her who was bowing and clasping his hands with an extraordinary momentum, his every move was clean and neat, Shang Xiufang's phoenix eyes moved, revealing a barely perceptible gleam of brilliance.
What a generous move, a sixth-rank expert uses it to drive a carriage.
"A groom from Prince Yan's Mansion, under the order of the Princess, invites the Shang family to reminisce about the past."
"Crazy Shang?"
Shang Xiufang felt something was wrong when she saw her baldness.
Fortunately, the warrior was not an idiot. He pretended not to hear and continued to make an inviting gesture.
Shang Xiufang gave some instructions to the steward who was accompanying her, and then got on the carriage of Prince Yan's Mansion.
The old people who followed Shang Xiufang all knew about the "crazy businessman" Shang, so they were not worried about Shang Xiufang's safety.
This is the territory of Prince Yan's Mansion, and Shang Xiuxun is the cousin of Princess Yan and His Royal Highness Prince Yan.
Who dares to touch Shang Xiufang?
Chapter 176 Shang Xiufang's Shock
puff!
Shang Xiufang stared at Shang Xiuxun in disbelief. She never expected that the reason she was targeted was simply because she touched Li Shouxi's cake.
The gentry’s stored grain is Li Shouxi’s reserve grain.
If the situation deteriorates in the future, the importance of these grains to Li Shouxi will be equivalent to a steady supply of logistics.
So, didn't Shang Xiufang come here to perform for charity just to take money out of Li Shouxi's pocket?
At this time, Shang Xiufang also reacted and understood why she was being targeted.
If it were any other time, Li Shouxi would not only not target you, but would cooperate fully instead.
But what time is it now?
The cold winter has spread to the north of Kyushu. The snowstorm has just passed, and even in early spring, the cold is still there. These reserve grains in Liaodong are Liaodong's relief grains.
Li Shouxi was the King of Yan in Liaodong, so he needed to be responsible for the people of Liaodong.
Li Shouxi did nothing wrong in being in the right position and doing his job!
"But I've been to Liaodong and there's no shortage of food, right?"
“Sister Shang, have you ever heard of the prophecy of winter?
The bitter winter comes from the grassland. Back then, millions of cavalrymen attacked Longmen Pass in order to find a refuge before the bitter winter. If the bitter winter continues to exist in the next few years, the grassland will inevitably be covered with ice and snow, becoming a forbidden place for life.
It’s not that the prince doesn’t want to save people, but if he saves them, the people in Liaodong will starve to death.
And these grains themselves come from Liaodong.
What would my sister do if she killed the people around her in order to save an unrelated person?
My cousin is not like my sister. He cares about the people of the world.
My cousin is the ruler of Liaodong. He has to consider the future of Liaodong and protect the interests of Liaodong first. This is why my cousin forbids the export of grain from Liaodong."
Shang Xiufang looked at Shang Xiuxun's apologetic expression and knew that it was not Shang Xiuxun's fault.
What's more, from Li Shouxi's perspective, he was not wrong.
What is wrong is this world!
“My cousin always said: People who play politics are evil-minded.
So you don't think that my cousin is a good person. He is calculating big things when he allows people to take food out of his pocket. He only gives small favors."
puff!
Hearing Shang Xiuxun belittling Li Shouxi in this way, even Shang Xiufang couldn't help but realize that this seemingly innocent little best friend had begun to learn how to play tricks.
Sure enough, a noble family is as deep as the sea.
"I used to call you a little crazy, now I can call you narrow-minded?
When did you learn to play tricks on your sister? Are you afraid that your sister will take your cousin away? Or are you worried that your sister is too charming and will threaten your position? "
“If Sister Shang is so confident, I don’t mind you coming over.
After all, although my cousin only has three princesses around him, he has countless confidantes. The four maids are quadruplets with different temperaments. Sister Ling'er, Sister Jiang Ni, and Sister Shen Xiu are all very close. If my sister comes, we can just form a camp so that my sister won't have to fight alone. "
puff!
Shang Xiufang looked at Shang Xiuxun who had a serious expression on his face, and her charming and enchanting eyes stared at Shang Xiuxun's eyes in disbelief.
Such lewd words and the content they revealed made her feel daunted.
She could tolerate her husband being a hero with one or two confidantes, but she would never allow herself to become one of those countless concubines.
Especially considering the reputation of this Prince Yan, who knows how many women will come to him in the future.
You have to know that most of the marriages in the Prince of Yan's Mansion are for profit. It is not a question of whether Li Shouxi refuses or not, but a bargaining chip for the alliance of interests.
"Think beautifully!"
Fanlou tonight!
Although the news of Shang Xiufang's coming performance was blocked by Li Shouxi, all the regular customers of Fanlou knew about it.
This was promoted by Fan Lou himself, although the follow-up was a bit disappointing.
But since Fan Lou dared to set up the stage, it proved that this was not a taboo or something that would offend anyone.
Otherwise, the one who escaped the fastest must be Fan Lou.
Therefore, many gentry around Fengtian came to Fanlou to watch the charm of this most beautiful courtesan.
"Sister Yan, are these things provided by Prince Yan's Mansion?"
“It was approved by the King of Yan, but it was Fan Lou who applied to the prefectural governor’s office.
It is impossible that the Prince of Yan's Mansion has any relationship with Fanlou, and these specialties such as Zen incense, ice wine, and snow clam are top-level luxury goods restricted for export in Liaodong. Therefore, Fanlou also needs to apply to the Taishou Mansion for a certain quota.
For a large quantity like Fanlou, approval from His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan is still required.
After all, Fanlou can drive economic development through cultural effects......."
Fine grape wine in a luminous cup!
Although I have drunk ice wine in the Prince of Yan's Mansion, the flavor is different from the ice wine I drank in Fanlou or other places.
The Yanwang Mansion is more inclined towards health preservation, with a low alcohol concentration and some special spices added; Fanlou is a place for drinking, with a high alcohol content that is more pure and authentic.
But in terms of taste and aroma, the ice wine from Prince Yan's Palace is superior.
Not everything natural is the best.
In addition, there is Zen incense.
Although Fanlou's Zen incense is of top quality, it is still inferior to the incense of Prince Yan's Mansion.
Even Shang Xiufang couldn't help but sigh at the extravagance of Prince Yan's Mansion.
These all came from Prince Yan's Palace, and they are inferior goods.
What caught her attention most was the glazed lotus platform in Fanlou.
It was a custom-made seven-colored lotus platform worth one hundred thousand gold coins and three meters in diameter. With the haze of light shining on it, it looked like a treasure from the immortals, a sight that was dizzying to the eyes.
"By the way, Mr. Shang, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan will also be here tonight."
"His Royal Highness King Yan?"
When Shang Xiufang heard the name, her originally dazed and drunken eyes suddenly revealed a hint of complexity.
I absolutely hate it. After all, I have been on tenterhooks these days, but I didn't expect the result to be so ridiculous.
The same goes for admiration. In terms of his position and politics, Li Shouxi is undoubtedly a qualified king.
But at this time, the whole world was suffering from the snow disaster on May 5.9, and Liaodong was the only one that was spared. In Shang Xiufang's eyes, this was a sign of cowardice and a lack of imperial responsibility.
"Doesn't he want to welcome me? Why are you coming here now?"
"Hahahaha, is everyone angry?
In fact, the prince cannot be blamed for this matter. Some things are still unknown to everyone, and we don’t understand how talented and strategic His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan is.
But it would be better for everyone to stay in Yan for the time being!"
"What does Sister Yan mean?"
Hearing Yan Shisanniang's advice-like reminder, Shang Xiufang suddenly realized that she might not have touched upon the essence of the matter.
Even Shang Xiuxun, who is so naive, only understands the first level, not the second or third level!
"The King of Yan banned the outflow of grain in order to stockpile food!
But what use is there for such a large amount of food and fodder other than disaster relief?"
"Sister Yan is saying."
Chapter 177: Back to Fanlou
fizz
Shang Xiufang's eyes widened as she stared at Yan Shisan Niang in disbelief. But Yan Shisan Niang smiled charmingly and said:
“Mr. Shang, there is no need to doubt my judgment. Prince Yan’s Mansion definitely has plans to use military force.
Over the years, although the Liaodong region has temporarily stopped fighting, the brilliance of the military peak is only hidden under the dazzling brilliance of the Prince of Yan's Palace. Otherwise, why would His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan add 200,000 soldiers? I'm afraid he had already anticipated the situation today.
Most importantly, do you know how the Liaodong soldiers eat? "
"The food for the Liaodong soldiers?"
