Poisonous Peasant ‘Concubine’

"When I was waiting to lead an army to attack the southern border, where is the Supreme Emperor?"

The information quickly connected in his mind, Ling Jingxuan rubbed his chin and looked at his family man. The emperor went out on patrol in a micro-clothing suit. The army is often calculated in units of ten thousand, even if he deliberately wanted to keep his mouth shut. The only time they attacked the southern border was when Zeng waited to lead his troops there. Could he understand that the late emperor actually stayed quietly in the army, and only when he arrived in the southern border did he launch a military expedition? flag? The only people who know this are the army, the southern border and the nearby southern country. After returning, he will issue another order to seal it. Over time, everyone will gradually forget about this matter, and only a few people will know about it.

"I'll go to the palace to check later."

Knowing what he meant, Yan Shengrui nodded solemnly, things in the Southern Border were more complicated than they thought, the Supreme Emperor must have reached some agreement with the major families in the Southern Border, otherwise why would he easily withdraw his troops? And why haven't they attacked the southern border again in their lifetime? In the past, he felt that the imperial uncle's retreat from the southern border was too abrupt. Now it seems that their older generation is probably hiding a lot of things from them, right?

"Well" Ling Jingxuan didn't say much, and looked at Jun Yuanhang again: "In addition to the Jiang family and the Tuoba family, who are the four major families in the southern border? The Jiang family used to be the king of the southern border, and their power must be unusual big?"

Hidden secrets will always be revealed one day. The only thing he is interested in now is to know as much as possible about the southern border. Those old stories will not be too late to talk about in the future.

"The Kang family and the Yao family, the four major families usually compete with each other, but when they encounter an enemy, they are unanimous. The Jiang family's power in the southern border is like the Yan family's royal family in the Qing country. On the surface, the Jiang family is a business operator. In fact, I heard that they are also in control of iron and gold mines. No one knows whether it is true or not. The Jiang family's old nest was originally in the southern city of Hubei, but many years ago, because There are too many people in the family, so they circled a plot of land outside the city, and built countless houses around the family’s eldest son’s courtyard and the ancestral hall. Now it has developed into Jiangjia Town. There is also a tall and strong city wall around it, with four gates open. The Jiang family's private nursing home, no, it is not suitable for the nursing home, it should be the army, the army guards the gate for twelve hours, and the town is also regularly patrolled by the army. It can be compared to ordinary counties and counties, and it is quite formal. You can see the power of the Jiang family from here, and you should be able to imagine the rest."

I vaguely guessed that they were not only interested in the poison in the southern border, but Jun Yuanhang didn't mind providing them with information, because he also asked for something.

"bump!"

Hearing this, Yan Shengrui slapped the table with a slap, his face was already quite ugly, what the Jiang family did was simply provoking their authority, will they be the next king? Also, the iron and gold mines in their hands belong to the imperial court, and any discoveries cannot be taken as their own. I have it for myself, and what is even more hateful is that every year the imperial court has to allocate money from the treasury to support the people in the southern border government and the troops stationed nearby. Is it true that the four major families take the imperial court as a foe?

"It seems that this Jiang family is still a little interesting."

In contrast, Ling Jingxuan held his lips and smiled, and anyone with a slight wink could see that his smile did not extend to the bottom of his eyes at all.

"When are you going to go to the southern border, eldest brother?"

Yuan Shaoqi stared at him blankly, his hand under the table tightly clasped Ling Jinghan's hand, he had no feelings for his mother's family, but before his death, his mother gave him something to give him the opportunity to give it to her family , he knew that she meant to let him find his father who would occasionally go to the southern border quietly, but he never mentioned this to anyone. If Ling Jingxuan and the others were going, he would go there in person to complete his mother's work. Will.

"Hehe... I'll go again when I have time. I'm sorry, Prince, I've delayed the meal time. Let's chat while eating?"

Glancing at him with a smile, Ling Jingxuan smiled and ended the topic about the southern border. He was definitely going to go, but not now.

"The princess is very polite. If you can help the princess, this palace will be very happy."

Jun Yuanhang continued to release his goodwill, and Ling Jingxuan also received it. The group moved to the side hall to eat, and the small group of people sitting in the walker running around the room also let Long Zhang take it down, because Concubine Yun is very special. On behalf of Jiāo, today's menu is quite complete, filling the entire table, all of which are the usual dishes of Prince Sheng's mansion.

"Can the prince enter the palace today?"

At the dinner table, Ling Jingxuan suddenly asked, there are some things that Jun Yuanhang is not easy to talk about, and he doesn't mind returning his kindness.

"Um?"

Jun Yuanhang, who was eating, raised his eyebrows, then put down his chopsticks and said helplessly: "Bengong did enter the palace in the morning, everyone knows that this trip is for the future queen, and the lord of the Qing Kingdom has long been there. He agreed to betroth the princess to Ben Gong, but today the lord said that Princess Lingrui, who was of the right age, suddenly became sicker. The remaining Princess Lingjiao was only eleven this year, and Ben Gong was also in trouble. Gong can't marry, if something goes wrong on the way, it's not good to marry, Princess Lingjiao is too young, Ben Gong really can't wait, this matter is in trouble for both the Qing Kingdom and Ben Gong. I don't know what to do."

He is not stupid, he knows whether Princess Lingrui is really getting sicker or not. In fact, the lord of the Qing Kingdom also proposed to change the daughter of the big family to be the princess to marry him, but he refused, no matter if it was the real princess. It's still a fake princess, he doesn't really have much interest in it. Those women don't want to marry him, and he doesn't necessarily mean that they don't marry. In contrast, he wants the cowpox of Qingguo more.

Refining technology or agricultural reform policies, etc., to him, these things are much more important than women.

"It's true that our Qing country is wrong. If the prince has any requirements, feel free to mention it. I think the emperor should be able to satisfy it."

Knowing that what he said was just foreshadowing, Ling Jingxuan was not in a hurry. He played tai chi with him while eating. Seeing him being so active in contact with them, it is not difficult to imagine what he wanted, and he didn't mind if he allowed it. Satisfy him, after all, he is quite pleasing to the eye, and he is also willing to marry him as a friend.

"Then Ben Gong is welcome. To be honest, Ben Gong has already made a request to the king, and wants you to refine the cowpox technology, but the king said that he can't control the cowpox, so let Ben Gong come to ask the princess. I mean, if the princess is willing, this palace will not ask for it in vain. It is said that the princess built a medicine factory outside the city and planted medicinal herbs, but the types of medicinal herbs you can grow by yourself are limited after all. You can decide to sign a contract for the supply of medicinal herbs with the princess, and supply all kinds of medicinal herbs at the lowest price every year, what does the princess think?"

Cowpox is a miracle medicine that can completely evade the smallpox plague. Whoever controls it will definitely cover it like a baby. It cannot be easily given to others. He knows that his requirements are a little too high, and the refusal of the Qing Kingdom's Lord is clear. Attitude, however, for the sake of the people of the southern country, he still decided to give it a try.

Chapter 486 Cooperative trading, regenerating waves

"Herb supplies?"

This matter speaks to Ling Jingxuan's heart. The amount of medicinal materials that hospitals and pharmacies will need in the future is absolutely terrifying. If they only rely on their own cultivation, as he said, the types are limited after all, and I am afraid they cannot meet the supply and demand of pharmacies all year round. , Most of the medicinal materials dealers in the capital are in the hands of others. It is not so easy for him to grab it. If he can have his own dedicated supplier, he will not have to worry about the lack of raw materials in the future.

"Yes, the southern country is rich in wild herbs and medicinal materials. If the princess needs it, this palace can even mobilize the common people to plant common herbal medicines to ensure that your supply will not be interrupted. We can discuss the price."

Seeing him seems to be a little tempted, Jun Yuanhang will make persistent efforts. The southern country is full of mountains, and most of the land cannot grow food, but it is very suitable to grow medicinal materials, and it can also open up a way for the people to make money. I believe the people will also will support.

"Wild thing? Then you should have a lot of fur?"

Zhang Qing, who has not spoken for a long time, suddenly inserted into their topic. As they develop more and more products, the demand for fur is also increasing. If a stable supply can be found, Baiyun Pavilion can be said to be Bailey. And harmless.

"Well, every household has a lot of fur. Every year, many merchants from other countries come to buy it, but most of their prices are very low. The better furs are kept by the common people, and the inferior products will be cheap and cheap. Sell."

Jun Yuanhang only knew that he was Ling Jingxuan's cousin, but he didn't know that he was also the person in charge of Baiyun Pavilion's logistics. He thought he just liked fur and wanted to buy some better clothes to make himself or give away.
