Li Ye returned to Beijing.
He came quietly and left with full of thoughts.
What he saw and heard in Northern Xinjiang made this young king's state of mind gradually change in an unpredictable direction.
He witnessed with his own eyes the unprecedented power of a vassal king, and saw with his own eyes that the northern Xinjiang that others rumored did not seem to be so bitter.
It has a prosperous and prosperous scene that is not found in the capital city. It seems that all the people are rushing towards a better life.
From the people who farmed the fields, Li Ye gradually understood the reason.
Since the day he went to the north a few years ago, King Yizi Bingjian has reduced taxes to a minimum and vigorously encouraged people to do business and become rich.
There were a lot fewer people farming in the twenty-seventh prefecture in northern Xinjiang. However, after they earned a lot of money from doing business, they hired a large number of people from outside the twenty-seventh prefecture who had finished their own fields to reclaim northern Xinjiang. Farming and planting.
In the end, the twenty-seven prefectures in Northern Xinjiang presented a prosperous situation that exceeded everyone's expectations in front of those officials who opposed Liu Mingzhi's encouragement of people to do business.
While the lives of the people in the twenty-seven prefectures of the Northland are getting better and better, it also drives the lives of more people in the neighboring states to move towards prosperity.
It was the first time that Li Ye heard this novel term "One Belt, One Road" from the people.
Although Li Ye didn't understand the meaning for a while, Li Ye could tell from the reactions of the people.
The four well-known words "Bitter Cold" in Northern Xinjiang are gradually overturning its impression in the hearts of people all over the world.
And all this stems from the current owner of Northern Xinjiang, Wang Liu Mingzhi.
"Your Majesty, it's time to hurry up."
Li Ye came back to his senses and turned his gaze away from the boundless wilderness, where countless people were cultivating mulberry and hemp, seemingly unaffected by the imminent war outside the pass.
"Li Zhong, is the scene of prosperity and peace and contentment in front of you the bitter cold in the north that officials say?"
The old man who was standing next to Li Ye looked with complicated eyes towards the field where Li Ye came back.
"Your Majesty, many years ago I followed Ruizong to Northern Xinjiang. It was indeed barren and cold. I never expected that it would be like this now.
It is a blessing to the world and your Majesty that the people can live and work in peace and contentment like this! "
Li Ye turned around and looked at Yingzhou City, which he had just walked out of half an hour ago, and sighed with sadness in his eyes.
"Do you think my uncle is more suitable to be an emperor than me?"
The many guards guarding Li Ye were stunned for a moment, and hurriedly knelt on one knee on the ground and remained silent, with beads of sweat appearing on their foreheads involuntarily.
Even if I beat them to death, they wouldn't dare to accept it.
To say so is to be treasonous and unethical, and should be punished by execution.
Saying no means that you are disobeying the Sacred Heart, and you should be killed even if you are guilty.
It is a serious crime to say anything, so it is better to remain silent. It is better to receive some punishment than to lose your life.
Li Ye closed his eyes and was silent for a long time. When he opened his eyes, he immediately got on his horse.
"I have ordered the officials of the twenty-seven prefectures in northern Xinjiang, ranging from the governor to the county magistrate, to write a memorial stating the details of the people's livelihood in each place. The letter will be sent to me immediately by falcon."
"Yes, the old slave takes orders."
"Go back to Beijing!
drive! "
Many guards looked at each other, quickly got on their horses and chased after Li Ye, who was galloping ahead.
Among them, several heroic old men riding strong horses gradually dispersed along the official roads and disappeared towards the state capitals in northern Xinjiang.
After Li Ye and his group disappeared, they slowly heard the place where they had just stopped.
Young Master Liu stared at the smoke and dust rolled up by hundreds of fast horses gradually disappearing. He sighed melancholy, took the dry cigarette from Song Qing from his waist, held it in his mouth, and skillfully lit it with a fire stick and puffed it out.
Liu Mingzhi looked at the light smoke coming out of the pot and was lost in thought. He was becoming more and more dependent on this thing.
Although it won't relieve addiction like cigarettes in the previous life, my mind is really clear and clear when I puff on dry cigarettes, which allows me to calm down and think about many trivial things.
Looking at the hard-working people in the sky and earth not far away, Liu Mingzhi's eyes were both pleased and a little uncomfortable.
Some things are destined to go against what you want.
A bag of cigarettes? Mr. Liu turned his horse and rushed back towards Yingzhou.
After several miles, he arrived at the city gate in less than a cup of tea.
Liu Mingzhi got off his horse, held the horse's reins and walked toward the city gate without haste or slowness.
"Wait a minute, Da Guoguo, who is leading the horse in front of you? Is this from Yingzhou?"
"Of course it's Yingzhou. Don't you know how to read? You're a kid from Shu and you're running to the north... Gudu..."
Hearing the soft and ethereal female voice with a naughty tone behind him? Mr. Liu turned around and looked behind him. Looking at the city gate, he was the only one holding the horse. He must be calling him.
The ethereal and soft voice of Shu gives people a feeling of refreshing breeze, which is very comfortable in the ears.
However, when Mr. Liu gradually saw the appearance of the beautiful lady behind him, he couldn't help but be stunned. He couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Sweep Emei lightly and apply powder lightly. Willow eyebrows are as bright as stars.
Chu has green silk hair on her temples, dark hair, lips as thick as fat, and a face as frosty as frost.
The skin of ice and snow is as soft as water, and the slender waist of willows is wrapped in cloud clothes.
The 28-year-old girl looked at Young Master Liu staring at her in a daze. She puffed up her cheeks angrily and raised her white jade-like palm to wave at Young Master Liu.
"Daguoguo? What are you doing standing there, what a good melon? Is this from Yingzhou?"
"Huh? Yes...no...yes..."
Young Master Liu answered the girl's question vaguely. When he finally came to his senses, Young Master Liu tightly grasped the horse rein in his hand and took two steps back, looking at the girl in front of him with panic in his eyes.
"You...you...are you a human...a human...a ghost?"
The 28-year-old girl looked in shock at Young Master Liu who was staring at her in shock.
Qiu Shui's eyes were filled with a hint of surprise. Her cherry red lips were slightly open, revealing her teeth that were as smooth and bright as broken jade.
The delicate nose wrinkled twice, revealing two faint dimples.
"It can't really be Guawazi, right? Guawazi is the only one who knows how to ride a horse?"
The stunning girl scratched Ningzhixue's neck with her fingers, raised her hands to tighten the baggage behind her tights, swallowed twice, stared at Young Master Liu and took two steps back.
Carrying the exquisite bamboo hat, he walked in a small circle around Young Master Liu and headed towards the city gate: "Da Guoguo, you can play by yourself, go home early, don't let you old man worry."
"Wait... wait, girl, are you a human or a ghost?"
The girl who was about to enter the city stopped for a moment, turned around, pursed her red lips and glared angrily at Young Master Liu.
"You are really good. Have you ever seen a ghost with a shadow?"
Young Master Liu took advantage of the situation and looked down, and sure enough he saw the slender and enchanting shadow at the girl's feet. Liu Mingzhi gradually calmed down.
"You...what's your name?"
"Why do I want to tell you this? You'd better go home quickly to save your old man from worrying. I'm going to the city, see you soon!"
"Girl, you..."
Liu Mingzhi stopped talking and looked at the girl standing in front of the city guards with surprise and suspicion in his eyes.
Are there really such similar people in the world?
Waiting for the girl to enter the city, Liu Mingzhi hurriedly walked towards the guards.
He held up his command arrow and signaled in front of the two guards, stopping the two guards who were hurriedly trying to salute.
"I ask you, what is that girl's name? Where is she from?"
"Replying to the prince, you don't even know that you are in a humble position?"
"Didn't you check her birth certificate?"
"Um... I am illiterate because of my humble position, so I can recognize that the official seal above is indeed the official seal of the Ministry of Household Affairs."
Young Master Liu looked helplessly at the guard in front of him, he seemed quite proud despite being illiterate.
He turned to look at the other guard: "Say!"
"Replying to the prince, I didn't look at Lu Niu's inspection!"
"Are you literate?"
"Reply to your lord, I can't read either!"
