Yang Peng looked at the backs of the two women and smiled.
Yang Peng and his party returned to Tianjing New City. Originally, Yang Peng planned to enter the city quietly without disturbing the people, but he did not expect that the people had already received the news and had been waiting on the street early. When Yang Peng and his group appeared, they immediately burst into cheers. Petals are flying all over the sky. Yang Peng suddenly saw such a scene and was slightly surprised. I don’t know who was the first to shout loudly: "Long live King Yan!" In an instant, the shouts of "Long live King Yan" were like a mountain roaring and a tsunami, one wave after another. Yang Peng led the crowd walking among thousands of people, Accepting the admiration of countless people.
Han Bing and Yan Ji followed Yang Peng. Seeing such a scene, they couldn't help but be so excited that they couldn't control themselves.
After the bursts of shouts of 'Long live the King of Yan' passed by, someone suddenly shouted: "A thousand live the empress!" When he shouted, the people shouted: "A thousand live the empress! A thousand live the empress!..." Yan Ji whispered to Han Bing said: "Sister, the people also love you very much!" Han Bing smiled.
The group of people came directly to the palace. Yelu Hanyu, who was sitting in Tianjing New City, had been waiting with the officials and the princesses for a long time. When he saw Yang Peng and the others coming, he immediately paid his respects: "I, my concubine, the commander-in-chief and all the officials and concubines. Sisters, please welcome King Yan! I wish King Yan a triumphant return!" All the civil and military officials and princesses followed and said, "I wish King Yan a triumphant return!"
Yang Peng got off his horse, walked quickly to Yelu Hanyu, helped her up, and said gratefully: "Mei'er, thank you for your hard work!" When Yelu Hanyu heard this, he was so moved that he wanted to cry, and forced himself to control his emotions. Emotionally, he said: "I have prepared a celebration banquet. Please invite King Yan to the table!"
Yang Peng smiled and nodded, and said to the officials and wives who were still kneeling on the ground: "Everyone, get up!"
Everyone said in unison: "Thank you, King Yan!" Then they stood up. The officials bowed their heads and stood respectfully, while the princesses looked at Yang Peng excitedly. Yang Peng looked at the wives in front of him who were more beautiful than flowers, and his heart was filled with tenderness, but then he became worried. The days to come will not be easy. Every wife misses him very much and needs to be comforted. Only then could he be worthy of their affection, and he really had to devote himself to death!
Yang Peng entered the hall surrounded by everyone, and immediately took a seat. Drinks and delicacies were served at a discounted price. At the banquet, the officials and princesses toasted to Yang Peng one after another. Yang Peng was in high spirits and refused everyone who came, but he fell unconscious without knowing it. How he finally returned to the palace was unknown.
Yang Peng woke up and felt that his head was swollen and uncomfortable. He let out a long breath and turned to look out the window. He saw that it was still night outside the window, and the moon had already set in the west and was about to set. Yang Peng sat up with difficulty and found that all his clothes had been taken off. He was only wearing close-fitting long clothes and trousers. His skin was dry and smooth, and there was also a faint fragrance. He had obviously taken a bath before going to bed. Yang Peng chuckled and murmured: "I was so drunk that I didn't even remember taking a shower!"
Feeling no longer sleepy, he simply left the palace. The Feifeng female guard guarding the door saw Yang Peng coming out and quickly bowed. Nowadays, in the backyard, the people responsible for the dormitory guards are Feifeng female guards, because it is more convenient.
Yang Peng looked at the moon and asked the Feifeng female guard next to him: "What time is it now?" Feifeng female guard cupped her fists and said, "Report to King Yan, I just beat the three-way drum and it was Yin time." In ancient China, ten Two hours divide the twenty-four hours in a day. The so-called Yin hour is the third hour of the day, which refers to the time period from three o'clock to five o'clock. When we first enter Yin hour, it is a little after three o'clock, which is already the second half of the night. .
Yang Peng nodded and walked up to the attic next to the palace, where he immediately had a panoramic view of the whole city's night view. Under the moonlight, Tianjing New City, located on the Great Plains, is really huge. You can imagine a city with a population of more than one million. There are no high-rise buildings, but there are many pavilions, lakes and pavilions in the city. Mountain temples, how big a piece of land they need! Looking around, it can almost be said that it is difficult to see all!
At this time, most of the streets in Tianjing New City were dark and immersed in dreamland. Only a few streets were still brightly lit. Songs and laughter came in waves along the night wind, making people feel like they were in the sky. The world is a city that never sleeps. That area is actually the place where brothels, red houses, restaurants and canteens gather. It is Tianjing New City, or the best gold selling cave in the world. There, there are fine wines and delicacies, beauties wearing colorful clothes, singing and dancing, and countless charming customs. When people are in it, they feel as if they have arrived in heaven, and they are so happy that they don’t even miss Shu! However, this is a dream after all. When they wake up, people are often shocked to find that all their wealth has been wasted for this romantic dream!
Huang Guang once suggested that the place where people live in luxury and luxury should be banned to avoid having a bad impact on the people. However, this suggestion was rejected by Yang Peng. In Yang Peng's view, it was just a relationship between merchants and consumers. The merchants provided various attractive services, and the people were willing to spend their money there. It is said that one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, so why should the government interfere too much? As for the so-called impact on social customs, as the saying goes, there will be businesses only when there is demand. If the demand exists in society, then banning that kind of place will only force the businesses to turn that kind of business from public to underground. That’s all. If that happens, I’m afraid there will be more problems!
The impact on morals is actually not as serious as those moralists say. Moralists are either covering their ears or being alarmists. The ultimate result of cruel moral oppression is just to turn public rants into sullen displays, which cannot solve the problem at all, and the official moral cleansing operation will eventually turn into a ridiculous show and end in nothing. Those problems are related to human desires, and it is impossible for people to have no desires. Therefore, the idea of banning such problems is simply nonsense. This kind of problem is actually like a flood. Floods can never be stopped. Only diversion and regulation are the correct way to solve the problem!
Yang Peng thought wildly, looked up at the night sky, and couldn't help but think: 'I really feel like I'm in a virtual reality game! It all feels real and unreal at the same time! '
He shook his head and came down from the attic. Standing in front of the attic, thinking about going to the concubine. Then he gave up the idea. It was already late at night and they must be sleeping soundly. It would be better not to wake them up! As soon as I thought about this, I wanted to deal with official business, so I walked towards the study.
When the two Feifeng female guards saw Yang Peng walking towards the study, one of them immediately whispered instructions to the other. The other nodded, glanced at Yang Peng's back, and hurried down. The Feifeng female guard here took a long way to get in front of Yang Peng, entered the study first, lit up the lights in the study, set up the chairs, then left the study and stood at the door with her sword pressed.
After a while, Yang Peng came and walked into the bright study room. He came to the back of the desk, sat down, and looked at the large pile of official documents on the left. Although when Yelu Hanyu was in Tianjing New City, he would send urgent matters from various places to the front of the army to ask Yang Peng for instructions, but after all, those were only the most urgent matters, and most of the matters that were not urgent and needed Yang Peng to handle Everything is backlogged. After Yang Peng left for a while, there was a backlog of official documents.
Yang Peng picked up a book and read it. This official document was sent by Du Nan, the governor of the Huaihe River and the Huaihe River. It said that the Huaihe River and the Huaihe River had a bumper harvest this year, and that food and all taxes were expected to increase by 20% compared with last year. It also reported that there were yellow-haired Japanese. The merchant ship with the Red-haired Japs arrived, carrying some novel goods to trade with us. However, no one on the ground in Lianghuai understood the nonsense of the Red-haired Japs and the Yellow-haired Japs, so he had to send people to bring the Red-haired Japs to The Japanese and yellow-haired Japanese were sent to Tianjing New City to ask King Yan to deal with it.
Yang Peng smiled and murmured: "This guy is so fucking lazy!" Then he thought: "It seems that Lianghuai is very lacking in talents who understand foreign languages! I'm afraid it's not just Lianghuai, but everywhere. So. This will be a big obstacle to trade! It seems necessary to set up a foreign language major in the university to teach various foreign languages." As soon as he thought of this, he took the letter paper and spread it out, and picked up the brush to prepare for writing. But I found that the ink had not been sharpened yet, and the inkstone was empty. He frowned and was about to call the Feifeng female guard at the door to come in and polish the ink. At this moment, Jiang Li, dressed in military uniform, walked in quickly.
When the two met, they both smiled. Yang Peng asked: "Why haven't you rested so late?" Jiang Li walked up to Yang Peng and saw that there was no ink in the inkstone. She immediately walked to the table, picked up the ink stick that had been used up one third, and added another He picked up the water bowl and poured some water into the inkstone, then rubbed the ink. The ink color quickly melted away, and the water quickly turned into ink. Jiang Li said while grinding her ink: "Tonight is the middle of the night after my inspection, so I heard the guard's report and came over immediately!"
Yang Peng said angrily: "You are now a princess, don't do these hard things yourself!" Jiang Li smiled and said: "Just because my status is different, I should lead by example. Isn't this what my elder brother often does? Does that make sense?" Yang Peng said with a smile: "Big brother can't help you!" Jiang Li smiled sweetly, looked at the ink, and saw that it had been polished, so she picked up the ink stick and put it back to its original position.
Yang Peng dipped his brush in ink, thought for a moment, and then wrote on the letter paper: Order the Ministry of Education to start immediately on the establishment of foreign language education. It is best to complete this matter around the Spring Festival.
After finishing writing, he put down the writing brush, picked up the letter paper and checked it again. After confirming that it was correct, he folded the letter paper, put it in an envelope, and wrote on the envelope: 'Forward to the Ministry of Education. ’ Then he put the letter on the right side of the desk.
Yang Peng has formed a habit of handling official affairs. Official documents waiting for him to deal with are placed on the left side of the desk, while official documents that have been processed or less urgent orders issued by Yang Peng are placed on the right side. Every day, secretaries would come and take the official documents and orders issued by Yang Peng and hand them over to the Secretariat. The secretaries of the Secretariat would transfer the official documents and orders issued by Yang Peng according to the instructions on the official documents and the contents of the order cover. Orders are forwarded to various departments for processing. This is Yan Yun's process for handling general affairs.
However, not all Yan Yun's affairs are handled in this way. For those particularly urgent matters, Yang Peng will immediately order the secret guards to pass orders to the Military Command Department. The so-called Military Command Department is the organization responsible for delivering official documents and orders. For example, in every war, the heralds who travel to various places to convey orders and news are subordinates of the Military Command Department. Since the Military Command Department is in charge of transmitting military orders and various key information, the subordinates of the Military Command Department have been strictly vetted. They are loyal to Yan Yun and King Yan and would definitely rather die than leak information.
Jiang Li asked curiously: "Brother, why do you want universities to teach foreign languages?"
Yang Peng took Du Nan's official document, spread it out in front of him, and said to Jiang Li with a smile: "How can we do business with foreigners if we don't understand what they say? If we have enough Wouldn't it be very convenient to have talents who can understand foreign languages?" Jiang Li suddenly realized, "Yes!" Then she said mockingly to herself: "I am so stupid that I can't even think of this!" Yang Peng said with a smile: "My beautiful and beautiful talents. You're not stupid, it's just that you've never had contact with foreigners, so it's normal for you to suddenly think about it!" Jiang Li couldn't help but blush when she heard the name 'Lili', and her beautiful eyes showed a pulse. Pulse affection comes. But at this moment, Yang Peng had already turned his head to deal with official documents and did not see Jiang Li's expression.
Yang Peng took a brush and drew a circle on the official document, closed it, and placed it on the right side. Drawing this circle means that it has been read and does not need to be forwarded to any department. Once the Secretariat receives official documents with such instructions, they will be archived.
Yang Peng brought another official document, spread it out in front of him, and said to Jiang Li with a smile: "Learning foreign languages not only facilitates doing business! It also helps us understand those countries! Our nation must survive in this world How can we go on and become stronger and stronger without understanding a foreign country? And learning a foreign language is the most important step in understanding a foreign country!"
Jiang Li nodded and said: "I understand. This is the art of war. Know yourself and your enemy and you will win every battle!" Yang Peng said with a smile, "That's pretty much what it means!" Then he turned back and continued to handle official duties. Unknowingly, dawn broke in the east, and the land that was originally shrouded in darkness quickly became brighter. The roosters in Tianjing Xincheng City became energetic and made hoo-oh-oh-oh crows. The streets gradually became noisy, and the whole city was waking up. The morning sun shone on the roof tiles and on the lake, everything became brighter. However, the brothels and red houses that were still singing and dancing in the middle of the night fell silent. They just Belongs to night, not to day.
Jiang Li saw that Yang Peng was still concentrating on his official duties and did not dare to disturb him. She went out cautiously and ordered him to prepare breakfast.
In the evening of that day, Yang Peng, his wives, concubines, and children gathered in the back garden of the palace, drinking and chatting, talking about the family affairs after leaving this period, and chatting about the affairs of several children. They had a good time. This was a family banquet, attended only by Yang Peng, his wife, concubines, and children. It was less constrained by rules, but more family warmth. At this moment, Yang Peng is no longer the majestic King of Yan, but a husband and a father, and the daughters are no longer princesses, but just Yang Peng's wives. Let's chat about wives, with a hint of anger. Angry. Yang Peng enjoyed everything in front of him so much that he wanted to give up everything and just enjoy this wonderful life with his wife and children! But Yang Peng also knew that this was simply impossible. He was the King of Yan and he had too many responsibilities!
Yang Tong said to Zhao Jinxi: "Sister, didn't you rehearse a dance to dedicate to eldest brother?" Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Zhao Jinxi. Yang Peng said with great interest: "Jin Xi's dance must be very graceful! I What a blessing!" Zhao Jinxi glanced at Yang Peng lovingly, with a slight blush on her face. He stood up and said: "The slave family has rehearsed a dance these days. I hope eldest brother will like it!"
Yang Peng smiled slightly, showing an attitude of waiting. Zhao Jinxi bowed slightly and said: "I want to change my clothes, so I will leave for now." Then he walked away with broken steps.
A Feifeng female guard led Yan Ji over. Yan Ji suddenly saw Yang Peng's concubines and became nervous. The Feifeng female guard stopped and said to Yan Ji, "Miss, I'll report it later!" Yan Ji nodded. Feifeng female guard trotted up to Yang Peng and the princesses, and said: "I have met the master, and I have met all the princesses!" Then she said to Yang Peng: "Master, Miss Yan Ji is here." Everyone's eyes immediately turned to Yan Ji Looking over, Yan Ji saw so many eyes looking at her and heard her heart beating loudly.
Yang Peng smiled slightly and said to Fei Feng Nu Wei: "Please come here, Miss Yan." Fei Feng Nu Wei responded, ran down, and spoke to Yan Ji. The latter came over immediately and said: "I have met King Yan, and I have met all the princesses!"
Han Bing stood up, took Yan Ji's delicate hand, dragged her to his side, sat down together, and said: "We are all sisters from now on, it's best to be casual!" Yang Peng nodded: "That's right! Don't have any at home. There are so many rules, just be casual!" Seeing how beautiful Yan Ji was, all the girls couldn't help but worry.
Yang Peng introduced the girls to Yan Ji one by one, and Yan Ji greeted the girls one by one. Yang Peng said to the girls: "Yan Ji is here for the first time. You should take more care of her and don't bully her!" The girls laughed, and Yelu Hanyu said angrily: "With you as Yan Ji's sister, who among us can't do it?" How dare you bully her!" Yang Tong joked: "Brother, you can't have sister Yan Ji and you won't like us anymore!" The girls looked at Yang Peng. Yang Peng glanced at the girls expressively, "You are all my treasures! In my heart, you are all the same treasures. Losing any of you will be painful!"
The girls were very excited and looked at Yang Peng lovingly. Yang Peng was surrounded by so many gentle eyes and almost became drunk. At this time, Yang Peng finally understood the true meaning of the ancients' drunkenness without being drunk!
Yang Rui stood on tiptoes next to her mother, raised her little hands, and said loudly: "There is me and me, and I am also daddy's good baby!" When everyone saw this, they couldn't help laughing. Yang Peng picked up a piece of braised beef, stood up, put it in Yang Rui's bowl, and said dotingly: "You are also daddy's good baby!" Yang Rui laughed happily and ate the braised beef with relish. , as if that piece of braised beef is the most delicious food in the world.
Yang Peng put another piece of braised beef into his son's small bowl and said dotingly: "You are also daddy's little baby!" The little guy laughed happily. Yang Rui pointed at Yang Yinglong and said: "My brother is so stupid, he can't even speak!" Yang Yinglong shouted at Chen Rui unconvinced; "Sister, sister!" Yang Peng showed a look of surprise and exclaimed: "Little guy You know how to call me sister at such a young age?" Yang Tong flushed with excitement and said, "The slave family recently hired a female master to teach Long Er. Long Er already knows more than a hundred words and can also call her mother. , daddy!" Then he said to Yang Yinglong: "Long'er, call daddy!"
Long Er glanced at his father, and then saw the aunts around him looking at him with wide eyes. He couldn't help but feel nervous. His lips wriggled for a long time. After his mother's repeated encouragement, he finally called out: "Daddy!" Yang Peng was overjoyed and laughed: "Good boy, good boy!" Yang Tong was so happy that all the women who had no children showed envy and couldn't help but look at Yang Peng and then at their own belly. , looking a little depressed. Yang Tong used chopsticks to tear the piece of braised beef that Yang Peng gave to his son into several small pieces, and then fed it to his son piece by piece. Yang Yinglong looked happy.
Yang Rui left her seat and came to Yang Yinglong's side, took Yang Yinglong's little hand, pointed to a big camphor tree not far away and said, "Brother, let's go play in the mud over there!" Yang Yinglong showed a very excited expression and nodded hard. He nodded and ran away with his sister. I ran to the big camphor tree not far away and started playing in the mud. Several maids hurriedly followed to take care of them, fearing that something might happen to the two little guys.
A gust of fragrance came with the wind, and everyone couldn't help but look in the direction of the fragrance. They saw Zhao Jinxi, dressed in colorful clothes, leading a dozen graceful and pretty dancers flying like colorful butterflies. Those dozen dancers are all rare beauties, and they are enough to cause a sensation among the people. However, the dozen of them can only be green leaves next to Zhao Jinxi. Zhao Jinxi is extremely gorgeous and has a delicate temperament. A pair of water-cut eyes reveal infinite affection. Although Yang Peng and Zhao Jinxi were already an old couple, they still couldn't help but lose consciousness when they saw Zhao Jinxi at this time. Most of the girls showed jealous expressions, especially Zhao Lihua. As a noblewoman of Tianhuang, she couldn't stand Zhao Jinxi's seductive appearance and felt that she was simply a vixen who deceived her elder brother.
Zhao Jinxi led the dancers to Yang Peng and bowed before him. Zhao Jinxi lightly opened her red lips and said with her oriole-like voice: "This dance was specially choreographed by the slave family for my eldest brother. It's called Wang Jun Gui!" "Yang Peng's heart moved.
The melodious music sounded, and Zhao Jinxi led the dancers to dance. The dance is extremely graceful, vividly displaying the softness of women. Zhao Jinxi looks particularly eye-catching against the background of all the dancers! Her dance was sometimes brisk, sometimes graceful, and her eyes drifted to Yang Peng from time to time. Although she didn't speak, it seemed as if she had said a thousand words.
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
