"you're right."
"After I die, Emperor Song Ming will definitely suspect that I faked my death. Aren't you worried about Emperor Song Ming's suspicion in the Medicine King Valley?" Liu Qingge had too many things to consider.
Leng Wushuang said expressionlessly: "I am already at the border of Central and North China at the moment."
Liu Qingge knew that Leng Wushuang was not a simple martial artist, but he did not expect that his thoughts were still very delicate.
"That's good."
"Emperor Song Ming wanted me to be responsible for building the Great Wall."
Liu Qingge was shocked. Zhongzhou's military expenditure was already excessive. How could there be money to build the Great Wall?
"Building the Great Wall is a good thing in the long run, but Emperor Ming of the Song Dynasty probably wanted to build defense projects to reduce the border's dependence on the Leng family's army. Once the Great Wall is built, it will be a huge expense, and neither the Liu family nor the vassal kings can afford it. To bear this expense.”
"Indeed, so if I become this supervisor, I'm afraid there will be no place for me on the border. If things go on like this, there will be riots on the border." Leng Wushuang's eyes were full of worry.
"It would probably be better if the labor was converted into tax deduction." Liu Qingge thought for a while.
"Indeed, that's what I meant. The government is responsible for the city bricks, and the manpower is mainly from the border people. The funds for manpower are huge, and they can be used to offset taxes. I guess the local people are willing to participate as long as they are not busy with farming. of."
Liu Qingge nodded: "So both educational and publicity work and economic work must be done well. After all, the Great Wall is built to protect the local people."
"In order to promote the economic development of border areas, we also encourage merchants to trade in border areas. This can increase local taxes and income, and at the same time strengthen economic and cultural exchanges with the Northern Desert."
"The main purpose of the war between the Northern Desert and us is for trade exchanges. They have always refused to trade. The Northern Desert will find ways to harass us in Zhongzhou repeatedly."
"Because of Yeluqi's incident, I'm afraid our Zhongzhou has already formed a rift with Bei Mo, and Emperor Ming of the Song Dynasty may not be having a hard time with it either." Leng Wushuang also knew that Liu Qingge was right, but Bei Mo had repeatedly invaded Zhongzhou and failed. However, the contradiction between the two countries is extremely deep.
"If we only talk about ethnic conflicts, I am afraid that there are conflicts between Zhongzhou and the states. During the Bai Emperor period, Beimo, Southern Qi, Donghuang and other countries were all vassals of Zhongzhou. During the Song Taizong period, they refused to recognize the Song family as the authentic sect, so they defected. "
Leng Wushuang did not expect Liu Qingge to directly talk about the White Emperor's period. After all, the Song Dynasty was only a few hundred years old, and the history of the White Emperor was considered taboo in Zhongzhou.
Only when folk dramas change the White Emperor into a mythical story can it be performed and spread among the people.
"Ge'er, do you want me to persuade Emperor Song Ming to do business with Bei Mo?"
"Yes, I hope you can be this bridge so as to lay a solid foundation for the future." Liu Qingge said lightly.
Leng Wushuang's eyes flashed: "Ge'er, sometimes being a little mediocre is not necessarily a bad thing. If you stand in a high position, some problems are unavoidable."
"Do I still have a way out now?" Liu Qingge smiled brightly.
"Ge'er, you don't understand..."
His eyes were like the deep night sky or the lake under the towering mountain peaks.
She looked at him, unable to understand his hesitation.
"Now that you and I have fallen deeply into it, we can only break out of the swamp and become the chess players."
Leng Wushuang was indifferent, silent for a moment and said: "Now that Liu Qingge's identity can no longer be used, what are Ge'er's plans?"
"Make arrangements for going to Beijing. How about I change my face and accompany you to the Northern Desert?"
"How can you, a woman, go to the military camp?" Leng Wushuang rejected it immediately.
"Can't I disguise myself as a man?"
"Just you?" Leng Wushuang glanced at the curves of Liu Qingge's body and didn't know what to say.
Liu Qingge smiled mysteriously: "Just wait."
"Xiao Ge'er, come and take medicine."
When Liu Qingge turned around, it turned out to be Xue Liankang walking over with a porcelain bowl.
"Thank you, Brother Liankang." She picked up the medicine bowl and drank it in one gulp without any doubt.
Xue Liankang looked at the bright red color on Liu Qingge's neck when she raised her head, and her expression was dark and unclear.
"Brother Lian Kang——"
"Brother Lian Kang——"
"Huh?" Liu Qingge shouted several times before Xue Liankang reacted and hurriedly caught the bowl handed over by Liu Qingge. He looked at her and Leng Wushuang, and felt sour in his heart. He couldn't help admonishing: " Second brother, your body is just a little bit better, so you will inevitably have to exercise some restraint."
Liu Qingge's face turned red after hearing this.
Leng Wushuang could hear the bitterness in Xue Liankang's heart. He subconsciously blocked Liu Qingge behind him and said, "I wonder what else Ge'er's health needs to pay attention to. Could you please Mr. Xue write a prescription for me?"
Xue Liankang looked at Leng Wushuang without saying a word, and after a while he said: "I will write it and send it to Mr. Leng later."
After saying that, Xue Liankang left without caring whether he was rude or not.
Looking at the background where Xue Liankang seemed to be running away, Liu Qingge wondered: "Brother Liankang, what's going on?"
Leng Wushuang said: "Maybe there are some patients waiting for him."
…
The next day.
Liu Qingge went to find Song Jingxiu. Song Jingxiu knew her purpose as soon as he saw her: "Qingge, are you urging me to go back?"
"Yes, now that your illness has been cured, it's time to prepare to return to Beijing." Although the words are a bit cruel, there is nothing that should be left behind.
Song Jingxiu smiled brightly: "Qingge, did you already know that I was poisoned?"
Liu Qingge was silent for a moment and said: "I have learned medical skills from Shen Xue before. Although I am not good at it, I can feel that your body is not normal."
"Now that the imperial concubine has been deposed, most of the people in the harem who could touch my mother and I are dead. I am afraid that this revenge will not be avenged. If you enter the palace again, you will be just a pawn in the hands of my father. I heard that he I intend to betroth me to Shangguan Xizhi, the concubine of the Shangguan family."
"I don't want to force you to do some things, but marrying Shangguan Xizhi is my only request for you. After the situation stabilizes, I will talk to Shangguan Xizhi. If you want to leave, he will let you go."
"Freedom?" Song Jingxiu sighed softly: "I have been stumbling all my life to have a full meal, but I never thought that one day I would have the opportunity to pursue freedom. Qingge, I will repay your kindness to me, and everything will be as it is. You wish.”
Liu Qingge held Song Jingxiu's hand tightly and said, "Jingxiu, I believe it won't take long for you to get what you want."
Song Jingxiu patted the back of Liu Qingge's hand and said: "No matter what, I should be the one thanking you. It was you who helped me get out of this predicament. Although I am like Pu Liu, it is not as good as marrying a beast like Shangguan Xicheng. I'd rather die."
Liu Qingge sighed, how could he feel uncomfortable in his heart.
She could understand Song Jingxiu's mood. Life in Yaowang Valley was much more carefree than in the palace. Even if Song Jingxiu married into Shangguan's family, it would be just another layer of prison.
Just like a person who suddenly sees the light and suddenly walks into the darkness again.
But she thought that a humble gentleman like Shangguan Xizhi might step into Song Jingxiu's heart. She hugged Song Jingxiu tightly and said, "Jingxiu, you must be happy."
"I will."
…
When Liu Qingge sent Song Jingxiu away, he suddenly realized that it was time for him to return to Beijing with a new identity.
Under her disguise, the reflection of a handsome man suddenly appeared in the mirror.
. She is dressed in men's clothing, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a dark robe. She has picturesque eyebrows and extraordinary bearing, and exudes masculine charm in every move she makes.
Leng Wushuang couldn't help but leaned over and praised: "Ge'er is so handsome. If I were a woman, I would definitely marry you."
Liu Qingge raised Leng Wushuang's face, blew a breath, raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Really? Little lady!"
Leng Wushuang's cheeks were as rosy as peaches, and there was a shy smile in his eyes that made people unable to help teasing him.
She rubbed her hand back and forth on his lips a few times and kissed him gently.
He responded enthusiastically in an instant, and his lips fell on hers impatiently, warm and affectionate, and their breaths intertwined, forming a wonderful picture.
Finally, Liu Qingge regained some sense, pushed him away and said, "I'm leaving, and you should go back to the border."
"You said you would come back to the border with me, is that true?"
Liu Qingge nodded: "Cuizhu, Cuiliu, Qingshu, and Yingge are now able to take charge of their own affairs. Once I have arranged the matters for going to Beijing and made a good layout, I can go to the Northern Desert to pick you."
"It's a deal."
"It's a deal."
After Liu Qingge said goodbye to everyone, he returned to Shangjing.
As soon as the four shadows saw Liu Qingge, they surrounded Liu Qingge.
"Young Master, you took the fake death medicine and didn't even inform us in advance." Cuiliu said angrily.
"That's right, do you know how long we cried?"
"Young Master is so evil!"
You criticized Liu Qingge with every word, and she immediately begged for mercy: "Okay, okay, it's my fault, but if I didn't deceive you, how could I deceive them."
"Young Master, your outfit is fine. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to read the letter you sent in advance. How much taller do you think you are?"
Liu Qingge nodded, turned around and said, "Do you have a bit of the grace of a handsome young man?"
"Don't tell me, it's really like that."
"I think he's quite handsome too!"
"Young Master, you are so handsome!"
"Young Master, you faked your death and asked Feng Yuqiu to kill you directly."
"Queen of Autumn? Isn't that next year." It was almost half a year in the middle, and there were many variables in the middle, but it was not easy to get this result. After all, Feng Yu was the only heir of the Wind King.
"Yes, Prince Feng's Mansion has been crying every once in a while, saying that you framed Feng Yu, but with the testimony of so many people, this case has been beaten to death, and there can be no changes."
"Young Master, His Royal Highness Feng Wang is the first prince to ask His Majesty to kill Feng Yu. This Feng King is really ruthless. He will give up his only heir at will." Yingge said with emotion.
All this was expected by Liu Qingge. The reason why she took advantage of herself was because King Feng valued her very much.
After all, everyone knew that Feng Wang liked his mother.
"I understand. Make arrangements as soon as possible. I think everything will come to a conclusion soon." Liu Qingge warned.
"The Young Officiating Department has cleared the way. What does the Young Master want to do with this false identity?"
