The number one scholar of the Song Dynasty

Finding a gap, he whispered to Yang Lin, "Brother, in the past seven or eight days, we have emptied all the grain store warehouses in Bianliang Market."

Yang Lin smiled slightly, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty."

Zhao Ji turned his head, pointed to a stone and said, "This stone is exquisitely carved, with twists and turns, and looks like mountains and mountains, but is it Taihu Stone?"

Yang Lin thought to himself, to put it so absurdly, isn't it because the limestone is eroded by external forces, long-term impacted by waves and dissolved by water containing carbon dioxide, and the stone is easily weathered.

Although he was disdainful in his heart, Yang Lin said: "Your Majesty has a wide range of knowledge, which is beyond the reach of my ministers. Today, I have gained more knowledge."

Zhao Ji smiled self-confidently and said: "Yang Qing is dishonest. You are from Yangzhou. You grew up in the south of the Yangtze River. How can you not know Taihu Stone? Bai Juyi in the previous dynasty loved stones like his life. He is like a guest, a friend is like a sage, he is important like a gem, and he loves like a son or grandson', it's a pity that Bai Letian couldn't be born in this dynasty, otherwise I would have to become a bosom friend with him."

Unexpectedly, as long as there are bad habits, there is Bai Juyi's shadow, this old whore is really a person who knows how to play.

Yang Lin didn't have time to talk to him, so he clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, Eunuch Yang's criminal investigation factory has bought all the Bianliang food, and I want to sell it to the people at a low price in the name of His Majesty, so that the people in Kaifeng Mansion can buy it at a low price." Common people, bathe in the rain and dew of heaven's grace, and express gratitude to His Majesty's kindness."

When Yang Jian heard that, he gave all the credit to his own crime detection factory, he couldn't help but smile, and trusted Yang Lin even more in his heart.

Zhao Ji said happily: "It's rare that Aiqing has such a heart, so just do as you say. If I need to come forward, I don't mind having fun with the people."

Last time in the Cuju field, Zhao Ji, who was enjoying the wild cheers of the crowd, was obviously addicted.

Yang Lin's original intention was to put this matter on the emperor's head, and no one dared to talk anymore. I didn't expect Zhao Ji to be so elegant, so of course it was the best.

Whoever dares to sue someone who acts in the name of the emperor would point his nose at the emperor and scold him.

Yang Lin immediately smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I will arrange it immediately."

Chapter 1 Nineteen

The flag is waved, and the golden drum is sounded.

The selected [-] soldiers of the forbidden army have a clear banner and neat armor, shining brightly in the sun.

Follow the general's order to move forward and back, constantly changing the formation, and in an instant, the sky is full of sand and dust on the school field, and the army is mighty.

After about a quarter of an hour, the rehearsal was over, and the men and horses regrouped. Each of the burly soldiers of the imperial army held their heads high and their backs straight.

Zhao Ji was very satisfied. The reason why he favored Gao Qiu was because the latter could put on such a fancy military parade, which made Zhao Ji believe that his Imperial Guards of the Great Song Dynasty were invincible.

It's just that these golden and jade-like flower formations of the Forbidden Army, if they are really seen by a few veteran generals of the Western Army, they will inevitably laugh out loud.

Can this thing fight?

Gao Qiu saw that the emperor was very interested, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there is a police department in Bianliang these days, and in the name of His Majesty, they robbed the grain store in Kaifeng Mansion."

The joy on Zhao Ji's face faded away, and he asked unhurriedly, "Looting? Didn't they pay?"

"They forced to buy grain at the previous price, but now it's the flood season, and there is no grain coming in from Bianliang."

After saying this, Zhao Ji's anger loomed, and he said coldly to Gao Qiu: "Unscrupulous businessmen want to make money for the country, and the people of Kaifeng Mansion are going to starve to death. Don't you want to help them drive up the price of food? Take care of yourself Forbidden Army, don’t ask about things that you shouldn’t worry about, I set up the Anti-Corruption Factory, and it’s all right under my banner.”

Gao Qiu's face paled with fright, he was born as a small servant, and he came to this point thanks to the little affection he had for serving Zhao Ji when he was in Prince Duan's Mansion, so he didn't want to fall out of favor.

Zhao Ji saw his fearful and ashamed appearance, his heart softened, and he said warmly: "You, you, don't listen to other people's nonsense, just manage the forbidden army for me. The forbidden army is the foundation of the country, and it must not be sloppy."

Gao Qiu quickly showed his loyalty, which made Zhao Ji happy again. The emperor treated his close ministers very magnanimously.

Gao Qiu himself had several grain shops, but someone broke down the doors and robbed them.Moreover, Gao Qiu is in charge of the Imperial Army, so it is inevitable that he has to establish a good relationship with the noble family of the Imperial Army. These generals have a lot of land, and almost all have grain shops. They have been bullied, but they still can't see the emperor, so they can only ask for Gao Qiu's help. on the head.

So Taiwei Gao held back all his energy to sue, and he didn't even discuss with Liang Shicheng who was behind him.This time he was devastated, and he was even more jealous of Yang Lin. He secretly thought in his heart that he should not mess with this person in the future, his holy family is more favored than himself.

Gao Qiu, who was born as a servant, is still too small. If Liang Shicheng knew about this matter, he would not let him be so reckless and speak out by himself. Yang Lin has already linked this matter with the emperor. But also bite the bullet, full of iron Hanhan.

In the Long Live Camp, food was piled up like a mountain, which made Yang Lin understand the saying that Kaifeng Mansion is rich and prosperous.

The hiding of wealth among the people, or the hiding of wealth by those in power, really reached the extreme in the Song Dynasty.

Song Jiang leaned forward and said with a smile: "Young Zai, this subordinate has completed the task, should I transfer this subordinate back? To tell you the truth, Shaozai, this subordinate is not active at the Raoshizi Incident Factory, surrounded by men and women monster."

Yang Lin glared at him, and said: "Under the Bianliang Emperor's feet, you must be cautious in your words and deeds. If this sentence reaches Yang Jian's ears, it will inevitably affect our relationship. Now the Long Live Camp and the Police Department are one. The enemy is so powerful that we cannot open a crack from within."

Song Jiang thought of the hidden figure Liang Shicheng who was pressing on his head like a mountain, and couldn't help nodding secretly, lowering his head and saying: "This subordinate knows."

Yang Lin nodded, and continued to look at the full warehouse of grain, and suddenly remembered that he would hold a grain release ceremony for the emperor, so he couldn't help laughing wryly.

This emperor likes to show off, but it's better than other hobbies. I don't know anything else. It's not difficult to set up a high platform for you, create momentum, and boost the mood of the masses to make you famous.

Three carriages stopped at the gate of Yang's Mansion, Qin Hui smiled and said: "Miss Jin'er, Yang San, this is your Dalang's new home, you go in first, I will come to visit later after I settle down."

Jin'er looked surprised, and said, "Mr. Qin, why don't you come in and sit down?"

Qin Hui was a little unnatural, and said: "My relatives are in the carriage behind, I will settle them down first, and then I will visit Dalang."

I haven't seen him for a few years, Qin Hui already has a Jinshi background, thanks to Cai Jing's reform of selecting scholars.

Cai Jing abolished the imperial examination system, and the school recommended students instead. It happened that Qin Hui's new father-in-law's family had some influence, and with a little manipulation, he helped this down-and-out teacher get a Jinshi background.

A head appeared in the carriage behind, with an ordinary appearance, a round face with phoenix eyes, and a mole under her mouth that made her look a bit mean.

"Why don't you go, you still have to visit your brother-in-law?"

A trace of disgust flashed in Qin Hui's eyes, but when he turned his head, there was already a smile on his face: "Understood, let's go now."

The wife he married was named Wang Guilian, who was the granddaughter of Wang Gui, a famous prime minister in the Northern Song Dynasty. Such a woman has a hot temper and an ordinary appearance. She has never found a suitable husband. When she saw Qin Hui occasionally in Yangzhou, her heart sprouted and she begged her father to call the shots. Qin Hui was greedy for his family's power, and happily agreed.

Wang Gui also has a granddaughter who is Cai Jing's wife, so Qin Hui and Cai Jing immediately became relatives.Wang Guilian hurriedly urged him because she wanted to go to Cai's mansion to meet her sister as soon as possible. After all, Cai Jing is now the prime minister.

It is worth mentioning that this Wang Gui also has a granddaughter named Li Qingzhao.

Just as Qin Hui was about to leave, several knights came from a distance, and the leader was his good friend Yang Lin.

Yang Lin took a closer look, got off his horse and laughed and said, "It's really you, I've received your letter a long time ago, saying that you were recommended to come to Beijing, why did you just arrive now."

Jin'er hasn't seen her young master for a few days, she didn't expect that she used to be about the same height as herself, but now she is so much taller, she stood aside holding the hem of her skirt.On the contrary, Yang San stepped forward and said with a smile: "Da Lang, you don't know, the road is too difficult."

Qin Hui smiled and said: "Da Lang, after you leave, the house in Yangzhou will be empty. Miss Jin'er begged me to bring her to Bianliang, and I will bring Yang San and Jin'er along the way."

Only then did Yang Lin notice the little maid next to her, and smiled with her teeth bared: "Jin'er has grown up too, go find Yunniang to settle you down, and then ask her to prepare a table of food and drink. return."

Qin Huai looked ashamed, and said in a shameful voice: "Wen Yuan, I really can't get away today, I will invite you to a banquet another day."

The curtain of the carriage was lifted again, and Mrs. Wang snorted: "Okay, what is the status of sister and brother-in-law, don't let them wait for us."

Qin Hui sighed and said, "Okay, let's go."

Yang Lin caught a glimpse of the woman in the carriage, thought carefully, and secretly thought that this person was Qin Hui's shrew wife.
