Qin Murong was stunned and said, "you Want to protect me? "

The strong old man said with a smile, "yes, don't you believe it?"

Qin Murong spread his hand, pointed to thousands of people around him and said, "how can you make me believe it?"

The strong old man said, "this If you stand from our point of view, a person we have been trying to protect, a person who wants him to live a safe and stable life, or even a person who has high hopes for him, suddenly becomes one of our enemies, destroys our good deeds with the power of thunder, and becomes the biggest stumbling block in our major events, you say What should we do to you? "

"Ah?" Qin Murong said, "I won't come back this time. It's not to protect, it's to kill?"

"Well Not really, but we have to guard against you. Of course, I have to force you

"What are you doing?"

"Naturally, I want you to come with us."

"Where to?"

"Moon religion."

"The moon religion? Where is it? "

"Ha ha, please forgive me. I can't tell you now."

Qin Murong said, "if I don't go

The smart old man also pointed to his side and said, "as a result, you can see."

Qin Murong said: "yes, I saw it. The result is that Xue Dazui will die, and you may also die. Then my 200 soldiers will have a certain loss, but you people will all die! Then I still couldn't go, and I was safely sent back to my small yard. This is what I see now. In the battle of Daliang City, you know, you think these thousands of people under your command can stop me? What's more, I'm here to lead the snake out of the hole. Haven't I ordered the follow-up yet? The city guard Now there's another one that hasn't left Weicheng. Guess where they are now? "

The smart old man was surprised and subconsciously looked to the side.

Qin Murong said: "don't look. If you can see it, what's the mantis chasing cicadas and yellow sparrow behind? Remember, don't challenge smart people easily. Huaiwang is a good example. He thinks he is smart. If he is really smart, he is the one who sat in that position at the beginning! "

The smart old man sighed and said, "come back to Mingyue sect with me. You will know a lot of things and secrets about you. Although chaotang is good, it is not home after all. You are so wise, you can feel the feeling of being scared and careful, right?"

Qin Murong said: "even if it's not possible, I will lead you out today. I have heard so many things Well, how to say, I'm very satisfied. This trip was not in vain, so Let's go. By the way, Xue Dazui, stay here. He is a good worker. I'm short of people here, so I don't need to waste it. "

"This..."

The smart old man was stunned for a moment, carefully pondering the meaning of Qin Murong's words, as if he understood something.

He chuckled and bowed his hand to Qin Murong, then retreated.

Then, thousands of people soon disappeared.

Come suddenly, go simply.

Xue Dazui walks to Qin Murong's side, his expression is a little embarrassed.

In my heart, I can't help scolding, especially the strong old man. Why don't you take yourself away when you leave? Stay Are you being cleaned up?!

But he said, "I'm tired of your work, and I'm waiting for you to work."

"Ah?"

Xue big mouth really grew up, his mouth is actually not big, not as cherry small mouth, but really not big.

At this time, he was so big that he could swallow all his fists.

"What are you doing? Answer

"Not tired! I won't be tired at all

"OK, go down..."

Qin Murong waved his hand, and then youyou said, "come out for a visit. I'm a little tired, so I won't go to Qinjia village. Let's go home."

In the face of Qin Murong, it's like a psychopath to think about it. We don't have any complaints. On the contrary, we feel very happy.

Now many family members have been received around Qin Murong's courtyard in the inner city of Daliang. They like it very much. How much do they like it? The family will clean the small yard which is not very big several times a day. Even if they are tired of working during the day, they still have to clean it during the rest.

The bluestone is spotless, and there is clear water sprinkled on the sand road. You should know that the clear water needs to be picked up by a well two miles away, and it takes half an hour to go back and forth.

Everyone has a smile on his face.

They feel that their lives are happy and that they are in a mess.

It's just

But Qin Murong always felt that it is beyond logic and above reason.

The whole world was bought by their families, and the big city of Daliang was built by them, but they can't own any land that belongs to them.

They didn't have it until Qin Murong gave it to them, and they felt very gratefulIt's weird.

Isn't it fair?

It's a bit unfair.

The people of the state of Daliang are absolutely the most lovely people Qin Murong has ever seen in the world, but the state of Daliang is the most decadent country Qin Murong has ever seen with bureaucratic constitution.

Maybe existence is reasonable.

Is it because of this kind of people that such bureaucrats are created?

Qin Murong did not understand, but this did not affect his mind to maintain the status quo.

Yes, it's not change, it's maintenance.

Because even if it is maintained, it is very difficult for Qin Murong.

In short, if he doesn't do anything, the whole Parliament will collapse, because his heart has rotten, and the rot will become bigger and bigger, and then it will be out of control.

If you can't run, it's better to turn this place into the place you want to go!

There are not many people in the world who can say that.

Qin Murong happens to be one of them.

People who can't move in bed can move the whole country in one sentence. This is Qin Murong's ability now.

"Boss Jia, I'll tell you something, big boat Originally, it was a retreat for me. I thought that no matter how dangerous I would be in the future, as long as there was a big ship running on the river, no one would be able to catch up with me. On the contrary, it would be a pleasure for me to gallop. But now it looks like I'm safe. "

Jia Fugui flattered and said, "is it true that young master is so prepared for a rainy day? It seems that I was dragged to the palace wall to save my life. "

"What do you think?"

Jia Fugui said with a smile: "I thought the young master was thinking that if you die, you must take me to the back. Otherwise, the Qin family shop will change hands, and the young master will have nothing left for future generations."

Qin Murong said with a smile: "it's very pleasant for you to be so outspoken, but there's still a question to ask you. If I'm really dead and you're still alive, what are you going to do with our industries?"

Jia Fugui said with a smile: "naturally, I will take what belongs to me, and then leave most of the things to Mr. Qin, your descendants or the people of the Jiang family. After all, if I stay, there will always be all kinds of problems, even those in my family, it seems that they can't stop."

Qin Murong couldn't help laughing and said, "can't you lie to me?"

Jia Fugui said, "how dare I now? Since I know that Xue Dazui is actually a member of Mingyue sect, I know that the situation around you is so turbulent. If I don't be sincere, I'm afraid you'll get rid of me one day because you're worried that I'm a spy sent by someone else! "

"How could I be so cruel?"

"I don't dare to try it easily anyway."

"It's OK, but Xue Dazui's identity should be kept secret. If outsiders know, I'm afraid It's dangerous. "

Jia Fugui nodded, suddenly thought of something, asked: "young master, you keep Xue big mouth, don't want to see if there are spies around, right? So we leave him here, and only we know the news. If the news is leaked, it means that you are still not clean, so... "

Qin Murong waved his hand and said, "how can I have such complicated thoughts? You think too much, just because No matter when, the boundary between enemies and friends will never be so clear, so less enemies and more friends is better than anything. "

Jia Fugui nodded and said, "that's what I said."

"Well," Qin Murong said, "there's nothing more to do. Go ahead and get busy. I can't go back to Qinjia village for a long time. Take good care of it. As for the scale of Qinjia village, it can be bigger. Remember, our business is not only within the scope of Daliang."

"I see. You can rest assured."

Jia Fugui left.

Looking at his back, Qin Murong couldn't help sighing.

Alone?

I don't have your Majesty's position at all, but I have begun to have your Majesty's depression.

"Little, you say If one day, at the end of the day, all people have to hide their heart from me, what will I do? Is it going to be painful and have nowhere to live? "

Wind small novel way: "live good oneself, isn't very good?"

"I mean By the way, you always say that there is something to do. What is it? Is there anything I can do for you? "

"I may be able to help, but I really don't need it, and I can't use it."

"Well Well, I respect your decision. "

"That's good."

The wind small does not know the reason of stare him one eye, make Qin Murong some don't touch brain.

……

Time flies.

It was less than a month, and it soon passed.

Eating and drinking Lhasa every day, Qin Murong seems to have nothing to do.I feel that my wound seems to be getting better and better, but I always feel severe pain when I want to move.

Sure enough, without three dog days' rest, I couldn't be better.

What we can do now is to just sit on a chair and be pushed away.

Wheelchair.

It is to install two wheels on the chair. The technology is very simple. Even the wheelchair from Qinjia village is made of refined iron. With soft cushions and high back, it looks like the tiger chair of mountain king. It has an indescribable prestige.

The huge wheel makes Qin Murong not feel any bumpy during the activity.

Because of this chair, Qin Murong was able to deliver the air in person.

All the way to Daliang City, and went south for 50 Li, until the moon splashed the earth, the wind was small, can't help but say: "don't send, you go back, even if you send another 50 Li, I can't go back with you."

Qin Murong sighed, looked at the sky and said softly, "the silver plate reflects the snow on the tree pods, and there is no one to go eastward for thousands of miles, until the ice melts and the swallow returns Where is the future? Where is home... "

Feng Xiao flattened his mouth, reached out to touch Feng Yu on the felt hat, and said softly, "sooner or later Maybe If you have a chance, you can settle down. "

Qin Murong asked, "what do you want to do when you settle down?"

"Marry and have a baby."

"Ha, who dares to marry you? I'm afraid that if I don't want to quarrel a little, I'll be cut into several sections with one sword. "

The wind bit a lip small, loud voice way: "that don't marry!"

"But if you don't marry someone, life doesn't always owe you something?"

"You're very upset!"

"Ha ha ha!"

He waved at Xiaobai, who turned the wheelchair.

With his back to the wind, Qin Murong bit his teeth and said, "I'll brew a new jar of wine. When you come back, we'll have two drinks."

“…… Well

The answer was a little hesitant.

When Qin Murong turned her head again, she had disappeared into the night.

Qin Murong looked at the desolate road, a little distracted.

Xiaolan took the blanket, carefully covered Qin Murong's body and said, "young master, let's go back."

"Well, go back."

The wind has gone, a little urgent.

Qin Murong mumbled about this for several days.

He always said to people, here is the endless prosperity of the state of Daliang, and the warm little home between the courtyards, why can't you keep a woman?

Make a group of people listen to the ear cocoon, behind the ground there is no less rolling eyes.

Especially Jiang Furong.

……

In a flash, the winter snow melts and everything recovers.

Qin Murong's health has gradually improved. Although he can only sit in a wheelchair most of the time, he is always better than before.

Sometimes I would go to the court meeting and watch it once.

Every time I go there, I always pretend to be deep and don't talk.

But this time it's different.

News came from the north, which is good news for most people.

As expected, Taiwei Xiao Zhan was the best general in Daliang for decades. He compressed the front line all the way to Beiyu City, and made use of favorable land to form a solid defense line, which forced the troops of the Northern Qi Dynasty out of the defense line.

The excessive depth of the Northern Qi Dynasty, coupled with the convenience of supply in Daliang, turned a campaign that should have been a surprise war into a war of attrition.

In the war of attrition, Daliang has never lost!

Such news can be said to be inspiring.

But Qin Murong doesn't think it's good news.

He frowned, and then let Xiaobai push him out, trying to get out of the wheelchair and kneel down for the officials.

The official frowned. Seeing his actions, he knew what he was going to say. He was afraid that he would make himself unhappy.

So he didn't intend to stop Qin Murong's action. Unfortunately, seeing that Qin Murong struggled for a long time and didn't get out of his wheelchair, he could only sigh and say, "Viscount Qin is injured. This etiquette is free."

As expected, Qin Murong did not insist any more. Then he said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, it's a great good thing that the northern defense line has been established. It's just If we only insist, we will inevitably lose the suspicion of our territory. "

Sure enough, this sentence made your majesty very unhappy.

His majesty said, "the Northern Qi Dynasty has no lasting strength. Now they have failed to attack quickly. As long as they hold a stalemate for a while and consume the national strength of the Northern Qi Dynasty, they can send troops to the north to recover their lost territory."

This kind of words should have been said by other officials, but in the face of Qin Murong, his majesty still felt that he should make it clear.

Because with Qin Murong's mouth, if others stand up, they will be directly rejected, and they will leave a message for Qin Murong. If he finds a flaw, he will force his majesty to do something he doesn't want to do.Your majesty can't help but think that, sure enough, Qin Murong is the good Qin Murong who doesn't speak. As soon as this guy opens his mouth, he is full of disgust.

Qin Murong said, "Your Majesty, how many years ago did we last fight with the Northern Qi Dynasty?"

"Thirty years ago, what happened?"

Qin Murong sighed and said, "thirty years, twenty years is a generation, thirty years It's enough to make an old man in his prime, and it's enough to make a newborn a middle-aged man. Thirty years is really too long. "

His majesty frowned and said, "what exactly does Viscount Qin want to say? Why don't I understand you? "

Qin Murong quickly arched his hand and said, "I would like to inform your majesty that it has been two years since Wei Chen was born, and in these short two years, the changes in the state of Daliang I think your majesty may not care too much about this change. How about asking the grand Secretary to come out and report the specific figures? "

Your majesty murmured in a low voice: "this boy is becoming more and more disorganized. How can I listen to his arrangement? This kid, this kid... "

After several times, he waved impatiently, and the next thing was to let the eunuch deal with it.

The grand eunuch called out the grand minister.

Qin Murong then asked Qiu Changming, a good man in the world, "I've met Da Si Nong. Although you and I belong to different families, we are officials in the same court. We don't have much contact with each other. If there's anything wrong with the next official, I'd like to ask Da Si Nong to correct me."

Qiu Changming frowned and bowed his hand to his majesty first. Then he replied, "please tell me, viscount Qin."

Qin Murong said with a smile: "dare to ask Da Si Nong, is there any difference between two years ago and today in terms of profits and taxes

Qiu Changming nodded and said, "naturally, there are some differences."

Qin Murong said, "is this a big difference?"

Qiu Changming was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the other officials.

Because of the relationship between the eyes, other officials are a little confused. It's reasonable to say that Da Si Nong, who is upright, will not have such a guilty expression. What's the matter?

Is there really any big change in taxation?

You know, if the tax revenue is good, their departments can get more money, which is related to the specific interests of each official. Why not pay attention to it?

Qin Murong said with a smile, "is there anything you can't say about Lord Qiu?"

"Qiu Changming said:" compared with today's tax increase, Liang Changming's tax increase has become a big point. "

"Ah?"

Without waiting for Qin Murong to say anything, the officials were surprised one by one.

"What? 30%? so many?! Then why is the money divided after the year the same as it was two years ago? Where's the 30%

When one official questioned, other officials were filled with righteous indignation, as if Qiu Changming had suddenly become a criminal.

Qiu Changming's eyes twitched twice, then he looked up at his majesty.

Your majesty I feel guilty!

He immediately said in a loud voice, "what do you think I'm doing, Qiu Aiqing? I I'm also very curious. In just two years, the tax has increased by 30%. Qiu Aiqing has made a great contribution. "

Qiu Changming's eyes twitched again.

Then he sighed and bowed his hand to his majesty and said, "I would like to inform your majesty that although the tax revenue has increased, the war in the north is tight and a lot of money and food are needed. Most of the 30% tax revenue is used for the war in the north. As for the rest Your majesty, the palace suffered from snow disaster before. Many houses were in disrepair for a long time, and some of them even collapsed. The palace has not been repaired for more than ten years, so I privately advocated and appropriated some money. "

His majesty "suddenly realized" and then said: "well, Qiu Aiqing can always remember me. He is really loyal. Unlike some people, he always wants to give himself some personal benefits."

All the civil and military officials were a little flustered, thinking that your Majesty was talking about them.

But I don't know. Your majesty is just talking about Qin Murong.

Qin Murong laughed awkwardly, and then asked Qiu Changming, "do you know how the 30% tax revenue came from, Mr. Qiu?"

Qiu Changming said: "in the past two years, with fewer natural disasters and fewer man-made disasters, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and are diligent in farming, the natural tax revenue will be improved."

Qin Murong ha's a smile came out, said: "you can point face!"
