Chapter 296
Suzhou!
Jingwang Mansion!
The sun shines through the windows and on the ground.
The interior of the house is soft and bright.
Wang Yuyan sat quietly on the chair and taught Zhou Zhiruo and Xiao Zhao ~ to read.
She has a straight waist and a slender neck, which looks elegant and noble, and a cold temperament - people dare not look directly.
Especially a pair of lacquer-like eyes.
It's intoxicating when it's soft.
When it is serious, the majesty is so heavy that it is very stressful.
When Zhao Wuxian entered Beijing, many affairs in the mansion were handed over to her to take care of.
The old lady intended to train her.
On the grounds of repairing the ancestral tomb, he returned to his hometown in Huating.
Most of the old people are nostalgic.
The old lady didn't care about rights and the like.
For her, no matter how big the mansion in Suzhou is, it is still inferior to the mansion of Huating's hometown.
At this time, Youcao came in to report and handed over a secret letter.
Wang Yuyan opened the letter and raised her eyebrows.
"Princess Li Qinglu of Western Xia?"
"Let her in!"
"Wait, I'll go and greet you, lest the Xixia people say that we are not hospitable!"
Wang Yuyan got up and asked Zhou Zhiruo and Xiao Zhao to continue studying, and she and Youcao and Wei.
Outside the house, there was a group of people and three carriages.
Two of them were maids, accompanied by a beautiful and elegant girl.
Wang Yuyan saw that her eyebrows were like faces, her face was soft, and she was like a broken blow.
The jade cheeks are red, and the more jade skin looks like snow.
Jie than condensing fat, flowers and human faces, covering the brilliance,.
But she's a beautiful woman.
The girl was surprised when she saw Wang Yuyan.
I just feel that I have seen a fairy in the sky, with a noble temperament and a peerless appearance.
After she came back to her senses, she hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Li Qinglu of Western Xia, I have seen the princess!"
She was ordered by Li Qiushui to send a gift to King Jing's Mansion.
Of course, what Li Qiushui said in Western Xia was that giving gifts to King Jing's Mansion could win over King Jing's Mansion and check and balance the Song Dynasty.
When the ministers of Western Xia heard this, they felt that there was nothing wrong.
If the Great Song Dynasty is allowed to mess up itself, wouldn't the Western Xia just be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman?
This gift, on the surface, is some rare antique.
In fact, those murals that Li Qiushui printed from the underground palace of Xixia have some ancient martial arts on them.
Wang Yuyan and Li Qinglu exchanged two words of greeting and invited Li Qinglu into the Jingwang Mansion.
In terms of blood, they are still cousins.
It's just that they don't know each other.
Along the way, they met a lot of guards, and when they saw Wang Yuyan, they all saluted respectfully and did not dare to overstep.
Following Li Qinglu's team, there was a not very conspicuous maid.
Eleven or twelve-year-old, with his head bowed.
The afterglow reveals a kind of old spiciness, profundity that has gone through vicissitudes.
"This Jingwang Mansion is really powerful!"
Wu Xingyun was shocked.
She could see that the entire Jingwang Mansion was encompassed by a formation, and with the power of the Yuan Shen, it was impossible to see through it at all.
And that's not all.
The princess who led the way in front of her, who was eight or nine points similar to Li Qiushui, was a hidden grandmaster.
His qi is much stronger than Li Qiushui.
In fact, when he saw Wang Yuyan, Wu Xingyun was startled, and thought that Li Qiushui was waiting here.
Wu Xingyun is just ninety-six years old this year, and it has reached the thirty-year catastrophe of the martial arts she has practiced.
In order to avoid being rebelled by his men.
and was found by Li Qiushui.
Wu Xingyun went down the mountain early, and she felt that the most dangerous place was often the safest, so she went to the territory of Western Xia.
Then he met Li Qinglu, who was going to envoy to Jingwangfu, so he thought of blending into the team and came here.
When she was in Western Xia, she had already heard many deeds of King Jing's Mansion.
Its rise is appalling.
"This Wang Yuyan, I don't know what the connection is with Li Qiushui?"
Wu Xingyun was vigilant.
Through observation, she could see that Wang Yuyan was still quite popular in the palace, and all the guards were in awe.
It's awe from the bottom of my bones.
There may be a lack of closeness and affection.
But for the princess, awe was enough, and she didn't need the closeness of the guards.
Wu Xingyun felt that Wang Yuyan had done a good job in this regard.
Human nature is complex, and keeping enough distance is the best.
It's easy to get close.
Wang Yuyan seemed to be aware of it, glanced behind her, and then took a look at Wu Xingyun.
This person is a little eccentric.
Wang Yuyan has a keen sense of spirit, not to mention that she also has the [Eye of Delusion], which can see through delusion.
This makes all kinds of lies, in front of her, have nothing to hide.
Wang Yuyan's eyes narrowed slightly, but she didn't make a rash move.
......
Jinling!
In the mansion of a high-ranking family.
A group of people from Jiangnan got together.
Behind each of these people is a huge Jiangnan clan.
Although the political center of the Great Song Dynasty was located in the north, the power of the south should not be underestimated.
In particular, the Great Song Dynasty attached great importance to water transportation and shipping, and vigorously developed the area south of the Yangtze River as a "big rear" for construction.
This makes the power of the Jiangnan Shi clan intertwined.
The Great Song Dynasty took scholars, and the number of scholars in the south has long exceeded that in the north, and the south is strong and the north is weak over the years.
Moreover, the South attaches great importance to clans.
These scholars were born in the clan and worked for the benefit of the clan and then developed.
Gradual.
Their people are all over the entire Great Song Dynasty.
Behind the shipping trade guild is a part of the Jiangnan Shi class.
They had already heard that the Jingwang Mansion and the Han Dynasty were in contact and were ready to cooperate in opening up ocean routes.
What is the concept?
Every ocean route means countless wealth, and ordinary forces don't want to get involved at all.
They gathered together, their eyes reddened like those of hungry wolves.
Many of the big clans in Jiangnan will go to sea.
Especially the scholars from Liangzhejiang.
Most of these people take the three routes of Nanyang, Dongying, and Goryeo, and they know very well that the profits of maritime trade are very high.
"Zhao Wuxian has entered Beijing, this is our last chance!"
"Yes, once he comes back, for another two years, who will have the final say in this land south of the Yangtze River?"
"The New Ship Trade Guild has been set up by them, and our overseas strongholds have been swept away by a group of new pirates!"
"These pirates must have a connection with King Jing's Mansion!"
"If we can't get back to the game as soon as possible, it's not good for us!"
The emergence of ocean routes is only one aspect that makes these gentlemen red-eyed.
On the other hand, it was the new shipping trade guild made by Zhao Wuxian, which greatly touched their interests.
Cao Yun and sea transportation have been prosperous for many years, and they have long been carved up by the predators behind the scenes.
King Jing's Mansion suddenly squeezed in.
This inevitably affects the entire industry.
At first, they didn't care.
But recently, the income has fallen, and some shipowners have begun to switch to the new shipping trade association, which makes them unable to sit still.
"The hand of King Jing's Mansion is stretched too long!"
"We can't let them do whatever they want!"
"That King Jing is too greedy, his goal is definitely not just a shipping trade guild!"
"Can't give him any more time to develop!"
Although they have not studied much economics, they have been in business for many years and have already honed some intuition and sense of smell.
Many people have a sense of crisis.
Any force, after the accumulation of the early stage, will usher in a period of rapid development, and its assets will expand rapidly. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
The current Jingwang Mansion is at this stage.
"Ask a master to assassinate, it will hardly work. "
"It's just a fuss!"
"What did Fang La say?"
"He wants money!"
"Then give him money. "
For these people, it doesn't matter if they can achieve their goal, even if they start a rebellion.
When the wind and clouds in the south of the Yangtze River are surging.
Inside Bianjing City.
Zhao Wuxian sent away Lei Zhen, Di Feijing, and Lei Chun.
Lei Zhen has the heart to befriend Zhao Wuxian, an upstart.
Zhao Wuxian is interested in the firearms craftsmen and gunpowder technology of [Six-and-a-half Hall] and [Perak Hall].
You love me.
Naturally, we had a good conversation.
Of course, the shallow will not be deep.
Regardless of Lei Damage or Zhao Wuxian, they didn't talk too deeply, and they stopped talking.
Zhao Wuxian returned to the hall.
Su Mengzhen and Yang Wuxian also got up to leave.
"Brother Su, wait a minute!"
Zhao Wuxian took out a pill and said, "I see that you are riddled with old diseases, this [Tiangang Seven Star Pill] may be useful to you!"
Zhao Wuxian learned from Xiao Jiansheng why they went to report the news.
This assassination of Cai Jing was successful.
Thanks to Su Mengzhen, the information sent.
Zhao Wuxian won't stay in the capital for long.
At present, his focus is still on Jiangnan, but if he can have a few more alliances in the capital, it would be great!
"Tiangang Seven Star Pill?, the kind of pill of the Quanzhen Sect?" Su Mengzhen said in surprise.
He had heard of this elixir.
Attracting the power of the seven stars to heal and continue life is not precious.
Zhao Wuxian nodded.
Su Mengzhen really needed this elixir.
He took the pill, hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang!"
[Ding! You give Su Mengzhen a ground level high-grade Tiangang Seven Star Pill!]
[You trigger 2,000 times the critical hit!]
[You have obtained 2,000 Tiangang Seven Star Pills!]
Two thousandfold crit?
Two thousand earth-level high-grade [Tiangang Seven Star Pill]?
Not bad!
Earned, earned, just these two thousand pills, it is completely enough to be worth the 10 million taels given to Zhao Xu, right?
After sending Su Mengzhen and Yang Wuxian away, Zhao Wuxian was in a good mood.
He came to the backyard.
Mu Wanqing, Huang Rong, Zhong Ling, and A Bi were in the gazebo in the backyard, chattering and talking about something.
Zhao Wuxian said: "When you come to the capital, you haven't gone out for a walk, do you want to go out for a walk?"
"Yes, Master!"
Zhong Ling immediately clapped his hands and applauded.
Her round apricot eyes shone.
The curved and thin eyebrows seemed to be beating, cheering, as if they were about to rush out at any moment.
Mu Wanqing and Huang Rong were also quite moved.
Coming to a new environment, there is a natural sense of freshness.
After some dress-up.
Zhao Wuxian and them walked out of the mansion and called the old housekeeper of the house and a team of [Divine Sword Guards] to accompany them.
"Rock sugar gourd, sell rock sugar gourd!"
"Baked cakes, Da Lang baked cakes, delicious and affordable!"
"Lamb soup, lamb skewers!"
On the street, there is a bustling and lively scene.
The old housekeeper is an authentic person from the capital, and he is very familiar with the capital, so he took Zhao Wuxian and them around to be a tour guide.
"There are more than 6,400 commercial handicraft households in Bianjing. "
"According to the industry, there are more than 160 industries such as fish shop, meat shop, ginger shop, fruit shop, cattle shop, horse shop, rice shop, large cargo shop, small cargo shop, cloth shop and so on. "
"And the stores in some industries are mostly clustered together and relatively concentrated. "
"Panlou South Street has many real pearls and incense shops!"
"Jieshen Lane is a place for gold and silver silk trading!"
"There is a bamboo pole market on the cross street, and there are many medical officers, pharmacies and so on in the north of Mahang Street. "
"In addition, according to the time of day, there is a day market, a night market, a morning market, a seasonal market, and a regular market!"
"For example, Datong Temple integrates Buddhism, business and tourism, and is open five times a month, and there are many tourists. "
"There are some shops in the streets and alleys of Dongjiaolou, the houses are majestic, the facades are open, and every transaction costs tens of millions of dollars, which is appalling. "
Zhao Wuxian listened to the introduction of the old butler and nodded slightly.
The "wealth" of the Great Song Dynasty can be seen.
"Go to the Great Xiangguo Temple and have a look!" Zhao Wuxian said.
The "Ten Thousand Surnames Trade Conference" of Daxiangguo Temple is famous far and wide, similar to the "World Expo" in later generations.
At this time of the month, all the wealthy gentry in the capital will go to the party, and they can't squeeze in.
They walked down the street, past a house.
A ball used to juju is thrown out of the wall.
A few warblers exclaimed from inside.
Keju is the national ball of the Great Song Dynasty.
It has been circulating since the Warring States period in Kyushu.
It is very popular in the Tang Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, Liao, Jin, Yuan, Goryeo and other countries.
The Great Song Dynasty was the most prosperous, from the inner courtyard of the palace to the common families.
Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin often plays football with Zhao Jiong, Zhao Pu and others.
Citizens also often play Kemari and other things in the royal streets and side streets.
"If you raise your eyes, you will swing and smile, and if you touch it, you will bow and go crazy!"
In addition, there is a special organization in Beijing that is responsible for holding a Keju competition, called [Qiyun Society].
For example, Duanwang Zhao Jie, has his own Keju team, and the person who leads the team is called Gao Yu, and his skills are very superb.
In the competition with other palaces, he won a lot of honors for Zhao Jie.
In addition to men, women's kemari is also popular.
Seeing the ball flying, Zhong Lingha said, "Master, look at me!"
She lifted her luck, fluttered up, flicked her jade hand, caught the ball, and landed on the ground.
The door of the house opened, and four little ladies ran out.
Apparently they were the ones who played in it.
On his little face, he was still full of smiles.
But when I saw Zhao Wuxian and his party, holding swords and swords, they were stunned for a moment, their smiles disappeared, and they became cramped and uneasy.
"They all said to be careful, what if you hit a pedestrian?"
Behind the house, a man in a green shirt came out, muttering in his mouth, and when he raised his eyes to see Zhao Wuxian and them, he was shocked.
After looking at it carefully, there was an immediate burst of cold sweat on his back, and he hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand: "School secretary Li Gefei see the prince!"
Rajah?
Li Qingzhao curiously glanced at Zhao Wuxian in front of his father.
