Poisonous Peasant 'Concubine'

"Well, it is."

Yuan Shaoqi nodded, and after calming down his emotions for a while, he said: "The outside world only knows that I am an outsider, and those who know a little bit about the inside only know that my mother is from southern Xinjiang. In fact, my mother is from southern Xinjiang. The daughter of the Tuoba family, one of the four major families in Xinjiang, is only a concubine, but she is also born in a famous family, and because the daughters of the Tuoba family are difficult, there are only a few daughters in each generation. My mother is also in the Tuoba family. Extremely loved, when her father was ordered to go to southern Xinjiang, she was accidentally poisoned by southern Xinjiang. Yihao was rescued by her mother who spoiled her since she was a child. The two fell in love for a long time, and couldn't help but cross the thunder pool. Later, her father's mission was completed I have to go back to the imperial city. Before leaving, he promised his mother that he would go back to pick her up. He left after the two had a night of passion. I think the matter of the emperor’s personal conquest should be true, otherwise his father would be the son of the prince. How could you risk yourself to the southern border? There must be something we don’t know about.”

Talking about her mother, Yuan Shaoqing couldn't help being stiff all over. Two months after the damned man left, her mother found out that she was pregnant. She was both happy and scared. The man who promised to marry her hadn't heard from him for a long time. Although the folk customs are open, women who are unmarried and pregnant are still not allowed. At that time, in order to protect their crystallization of love, that is him, the mother left Southern Xinjiang alone with her body pregnant, and traveled all the way to the imperial city to find the man she loved. ? ?

Because she is from a foreign race, not familiar with geographical routes, and because she is usually pampered, it took several months to arrive at the imperial city. Instead of travel expenses, she was in a very embarrassing situation when she arrived in the imperial city, but she was not sad at all, and even went to the door excitedly after inquiring about Wei Guogong's mansion, but the one waiting for her was not the man she loved Instead, the whole room looked disgusted and disgusted. The man who said he loved him didn't dare fart in front of his real wife. Afterwards, the mother overheard that they only wanted children and had no intention of marrying him at all. When she entered the door, she didn't intend to give her even a title of concubine, and her mother was also fierce, and she turned around and left the Duke's Mansion with her big belly about to give birth.

But she didn't dare to go back to southern Xinjiang. The sky is big and the earth is big, and she has no place to go. After giving birth to him with difficulty, she settled down in a small village outside the city. I heard that the old man who learned everything later scolded her father angrily. , mobilized the power of the entire Duke's Mansion to find his mother on the only way between the imperial city and the southern border, and everyone knew that he and his mother were living under their noses, and the mother relied on her familiarity with medicinal herbs Earn money to support him until her body gradually collapsed, and when she was dying, she still bowed to reality, but this time she learned to be smart, and instead of directly looking for her father who fears his wife like a tiger, she approached the old man and asked him to make the decision Let him recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors. At that time, he had already started to understand, and when he was a child, his mother often told him about the things between them, so he would rather be alone than go back, let alone call others parents.

In the end, the old man made the final decision and let his mother's spirit seat enter the Yuan family's ancestral hall as a flat wife. He reluctantly bowed his head. Before entering the Ling family by chance, he had to run two or three times a year. He studied and practiced martial arts, but he didn't want to continue after he passed the scholar examination, and he didn't want to accept the old man's arrangement to enter the army. At that time, his thinking was naive, he just didn't want to give them face, and didn't want to be their pawn.

"Back then, Marquis Zeng led his troops to attack southern Xinjiang. Where was the Supreme Emperor?"

Quickly connected all the messages in his mind, Ling Jingxuan rubbed his chin and looked at his man, the emperor went on tour in micro-clothes, it's okay to say, the imperial conquest is such a big matter, the army is often counted in tens of thousands, even if he wants to keep his mouth shut, it's impossible The people in the world are blocked, and the only time they attacked southern border was when Zeng Hou led his troops there. Can he understand that the Supreme Emperor actually stayed in the army quietly, and only launched the imperial conquest when he arrived in southern border flag?In this way, the only people who know about it are the army, Southern Xinjiang and the nearby Southern Kingdom. After returning, he will issue another password. As time goes by, everyone will gradually forget about this matter, and only a few people will know about it.

"I'll go into the palace later to check."

Knowing what he meant, Yan Chengrui nodded in a deep voice. The matter in southern Xinjiang was more complicated than they imagined. The Supreme Emperor must have reached some agreement with several big families in southern Xinjiang, otherwise why would he withdraw so easily?And why didn't he attack southern Xinjiang again in his lifetime?In the past, he felt that Uncle Huang's withdrawal from the attack on Southern Xinjiang was too abrupt, but now it seems that the older generation is probably hiding a lot of things from them, right?

"Well." Ling Jingxuan didn't say much, and looked at Jun Yuanhang again: "Apart from the Jiang family and the Tuoba family, who are the four major families in Southern Xinjiang? The Jiang family used to be the king of Southern Xinjiang, and their power must be extraordinary. Is it big?"

The hidden secrets will always be exposed one day. The only thing he is interested in now is to learn about southern Xinjiang as much as possible. It will not be too late to talk about those old things in the future.

"The Kang family and the Yao family, the four major families usually compete with each other, but when they encounter enemies, they are unanimous. The Jiang family's power in southern Xinjiang is like the Yan family's royal family in Qingguo. On the surface, the Jiang family is operating In fact, it is said that they still control the iron ore and gold mines, but no one knows whether it is true or not. The Jiang family's old nest was originally in the southern city of Hubei, but many years ago, because The family population was too large, so they surrounded a piece of land outside the city and built countless houses centered on the family's eldest son's courtyard and ancestral hall. A tall and solid city wall was built around the city, with four gates wide open. The Jiang family's private guard house, no, the guard house is not suitable, it should be the army. The army guards the gate for twelve hours, and the town is also regularly patrolled by troops. It is enough to compare with ordinary counties and counties, and it is quite formal, from this we can see how powerful the Jiang family is, and you should be able to imagine the rest."

He vaguely guessed that they were not only interested in the southern border drug, and Jun Yuanhang didn't mind providing them with information, because he also wanted something.

"bump!"

Hearing this, Yan Chengrui slapped the table with his palm, his face was already quite ugly, what the Jiang family did was to challenge their authority, will they be the next step to establish themselves as kings?Also, the iron ore and gold mines in their hands belong to the imperial court, and any discoveries cannot be taken as their own. What's even worse is that every year the imperial court allocates money from the national treasury to support the people in the southern Xinjiang government office and the army stationed nearby. Are the four major families really taking the imperial court as a fool?

"It seems that this Jiang family has something interesting."

In contrast, Ling Jingxuan pulled his lips and smiled, anyone with a slight wink could see that his smile didn't extend to his eyes at all.

"When is elder brother going to southern Xinjiang?"

Yuan Shaoqi stared at him blankly, his hand under the table tightly clasped Ling Jinghan's hand, he had no feelings for his mother's natal family, but his mother gave him something before she died, so that he could have a chance to hand it over to her family, He knew what she meant to ask him to find his father who occasionally went to southern Xinjiang quietly, but he never mentioned this matter to anyone. If Ling Jingxuan and the others wanted to go, he would go there himself to fulfill his mother's last wish.

"Hehe... I will go again when I have time. I'm sorry Prince, I missed the meal time. Let's chat while eating?"

Smiling at him, Ling Jingxuan ended the topic about southern Xinjiang with a smile. He must go, but not now.

"Wangfei is polite. If you can help Wangfei, I will be very happy."

Jun Yuanhang continued to release goodwill, and Ling Jingxuan also received it. The group moved to the side hall for dinner, and Xiaotuanzi, who was sitting in the walker and running around the room, was also taken by Mrs. Long Zhang, because Concubine Yun was very kind. Let me tell you, today's dishes are quite complete, the entire table is filled to the brim, and they are all the usual dishes in Prince Sheng's Mansion.

"Will the prince enter the palace today?"

At the dinner table, Ling Jingxuan suddenly asked, there are some things that Jun Yuanhang can't talk about, and he doesn't mind reciprocating his kindness.

"Ok?"

Jun Yuanhang, who was eating, raised his eyebrows, then put down his chopsticks and pretended to be helpless and said: "I did enter the palace this morning. Everyone knows that this trip is for the future queen. I agreed to betroth the princess to Bengong, but today the lord said that Princess Lingrui, who was of the right age, suddenly became ill, and the remaining Princess Lingjiao was only [-] this year. The palace can't marry by force, if something goes wrong on the way, it's hard to explain, and Princess Lingjiao is too young, I really can't afford to wait, this matter is in trouble for the Lord of Qing Kingdom and this palace, right? know what to do."

He is not stupid. He knows whether Princess Lingrui's illness is really getting worse. In fact, the Lord of Qingguo also proposed to change the daughter of the big family as a princess to marry him. He refused, no matter if it is the real princess It's still a fake princess, he's not really interested, those women don't want to marry him, and he doesn't necessarily want them not to marry. In contrast, he wants Qingguo's vaccinia extraction technology or agricultural reform policy, etc. For him, these things are much more important than women.

"This matter is indeed wrong with our Qing Kingdom. If the prince has any requirements, just ask, I think the emperor should be able to satisfy."

Knowing that all he said was just foreshadowing, Ling Jingxuan was not in a hurry, he played Tai Chi with him while eating, seeing him actively contacting them, it is not difficult to imagine what he wants, and he doesn't mind if it is allowed Satisfy him, after all, he is quite pleasing to the eye, and he is also willing to make him a friend.

"Then I will be impolite. To be honest, I have already made a request to the king, and I want you to refine the technology of cowpox, but the king said that he can't be the master of the cowpox. Let me ask the princess. It means that if the princess is willing, I will not ask for it in vain. It is said that the princess has built a pharmaceutical factory outside the city and has grown medicinal herbs herself, but the types of herbs you grow yourself are limited after all. The southern country is rich in various medicinal materials. You can decide to sign a medicinal herb supply contract with the princess, and supply all kinds of medicinal herbs at the lowest price every year, what does the princess think?"

Cowpox is a miracle drug that can completely avoid the smallpox plague. Whoever controls it must be holding it like a baby. It is impossible to give it to someone easily. He knows that his request is a bit too high, and the refusal of the king of Qingguo is clear However, for the sake of the people in the southern country, he decided to give it a try.
