Yu Le finally met Liao Muzong. He was of medium build and thin, with an extremely bad complexion and average appearance. This drunken emperor of the Liao Kingdom was really talented. He was not a womanizer. He used wine as a companion. He killed cruelly and indiscriminately. At the same time, he spared the lives of most of the people who rebelled, which Yu Le couldn't think of. Its solution.
"Leshan, I've read the Tang Dynasty's certifying documents you brought back. What have you gained from your nearly half-year trip south?"
"Your Majesty, what I see is prosperity and ruin, peace and contentment and no fixed abode, prosperity and decline. The good things are all seen in the Zhou Kingdom, and the bad ones are all seen in the Tang Kingdom. Today, the strength of the Zhou Kingdom can be said to be at its peak , Wei Chen suggested that it’s best not to be an enemy of it.”
"You mean we can't defeat them!"
"Your Majesty, war is not only a contest between the armies of countries, but also a contest between money and reserves. It consists of many factors and cannot be generalized, but it is ultimately determined by strength. At present, our Liao Kingdom The current situation does not allow us to go to war with the Zhou State. Of course, if the Zhou State takes the initiative to attack, we are not afraid of him, and the humble ministers will definitely lead the people to resist to the death."
"When you come back this time, please stay in office and go to Beijing. I will send someone else to take over for you."
Yu Le was surprised. What happened? Jia Xu didn't notify him! he does not know?
Taiping King Yelu Sage was also surprised when he heard this, "Your Majesty, what position will Leshan arrange?"
"Some of his measures in Nanjing are very good. I want him to promote them across the country. What we lack most now is money, Leshan! Don't let me live up to my expectations of you!"
It seemed that King Taiping was also unaware, and you could tell by his expression.
"Leshan, I order you to be the Privy Councilor of the South Courtyard and concurrently the Minister of Household Affairs of the South Courtyard."
"I thank you, Your Majesty."
"My dear brother, give Leshan a good house and choose some good-looking women for him."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Yu Le doesn't feel very good. Staying in Shangjing is the best option. This is the center of the whirlpool! In addition, the biggest hidden danger is still in Beijing. There is no way to hide, alas!
"Leshan, why are you sighing?"
"My lord, you also know how difficult it is to do what your majesty asked me to do. There are too many people's interests involved in it. It's impossible not to offend anyone!"
"Don't worry, but you don't have to be afraid of anything that benefits the country. Your Majesty and I will make decisions for you."
Yu Le thought, come on! When the time comes, push three, six, five, and sell yourself like a fool!
"Your Majesty, I'd better go back to Nanjing and give an explanation!"
"Okay! Come back as soon as possible."
Yu Le returned to Nanjing and began to monetize his property. If I don't leave him here, what money will he leave?
"Master, after I go to Beijing with you, what will the sisters do?" Qing'er is now waiting for Yu Le.
"Take away those who want to go with you. Those who don't want to go can return to Jiangnan and give them housing expenses."
"Okay! Alas, it's been open for less than a year, really."
"There's nothing I can do! I didn't expect to be transferred suddenly!"
"Master, I think, I want to go into the house with you."
Yu Le hugged Qing'er, knowing Qing'er's thoughts, so soft, so big, so plump!
"Leshan, you, what should I do if you leave?" The eldest princess was anxious, she couldn't live without Yu Le.
"You're going to Beijing too, why are you staying with Chuo'er!"
"That's right! Those two daughters are going to Beijing, why should I stay here, hehe!"
Yu Le met his senior brother Gao Pingchuan, who came after a long journey, "Brother! I was suddenly promoted, but even though I am in Beijing, it is quite beneficial to our business in Liao."
"Of course, you, as an official, are in charge of money. Haha, it seems that we are going to make a lot of money in Liao Kingdom!"
The two plotted for three days, and Gao Pingchuan went to Beijing before Le.
"Master Zhao, someone sent me a secret letter. I don't know who it is, but after reading the letter, I thought it was important and had to report it to you." Li Ze came to Zhao Kuangyin's house to see him. Zhao Kuangyin.
After Zhao Kuangyin took Li Ze's letter and read it, he said solemnly: "Is this credible?"
"Our spies in the Liao Kingdom have also proven that some of the things in the letter are true."
"I have to repay His Majesty. This is a big event and an opportunity!"
"Yes! Sir."
Zhao Kuangyin did not delay. This matter was related to the success or failure of the attack on Liao, so he had to discuss it with Emperor Chai Rong and some important officials!
"Master, Yelu Leshan was suddenly left in Beijing by the emperor, saying that he was helping the court to make money. Is it possible that it was for other reasons?" Yelu Xiyin didn't seem to believe that Leshan was promoted because he could make money.
Yelu Lihu stroked his beard and thought.
"Son! When Yelu Leshan comes back from Nanjing, we will meet him and keep an eye on him. There is a mystery in this matter. It is unusual for Your Majesty to use a Han to manage money!"
"Grandpa, will your Majesty use Han officials as highly as the late emperor did?"
"Hmph! If he doesn't want to end up like the late emperor, he'd better not do that." Yelu Lihu personally experienced the "Vulcan Lake Rebellion".
Yu Le reluctantly came to Shangjing to take up his post.
"Sir, it's too backward to go to Beijing, isn't it? There is no Youzhou, no, Nanjing is better." Qing'er sat in Yu Le's car, opened the curtain and looked at the scenery outside the car. There was nothing but grass, and there were also There are tents and few houses.
"I said you would regret it if you came, but you didn't believe me."
"Hehe, the key is to be by your side. How long have I been waiting? It's finally my turn, how could I miss it!" Qing'er hugged Yu Le's arm and there was a small friction, and Yu Le got angry! Suppressed on the spot.
"Master, you, you are really, this is in the car, but our house is a little far away! Why can't we reach it!"
"This is the capital city. In one word, it's big. If you enter through the city gate, you can reach the center in at least an hour!"
Qing'er was speechless. It was really big. Not only was it so fucking empty, but the Khitan people's clothes were too, too shabby! Is this the capital of a country? Qing'er didn't believe her eyes. I originally thought that the journey from Nanjing to Beijing would be full of flowers, but unfortunately it turned out to be the opposite. It was much more desolate than the places after the war in the Central Plains.
"Come again!"
"hey-hey!"
"Master, you lied to me. You said it takes an hour from the city gate to the center of the city. I think it takes an hour and a half. By the way, Master, why did you bring so many mosquito nets and mosquito coils?"
"Oh, you'll find out when you go to bed at night! The mosquitoes here are much bigger than those in the Central Plains, and the bites will be very big."
"Ah! So awesome! Then I'll sleep with you every day, hehe!"
King Taiping knew that Leshan was coming to Beijing today and wanted to hold a welcome banquet, but Jia Xu stopped him. This was Yu Le's intention, not to be too showy, and Yu Le wanted to downplay the relationship between the two when he came to Beijing to take office this time. It's best to have some arguments to make it seem to outsiders that there is a gap between the two. Taiping King Yelu Sage thought about it and readily agreed. It was a good idea.
