Chapter 9 The Sheep Offering Rong

"If it's just one place, it's not impossible."

Wang Sheng's eyes lit up and he said: "It would be great if we could get closer to Luoyang."

Sima Yu gently shook his head.

"Luoyang, I'm afraid there is no real estate left."

Luoyang originally had a lot of land, not to mention the manors of various families along the Luo River. This was the property of each family, and it would be too difficult to take it back.

The Langya Wang family, the Zongwang, and Baiguan all have many manors in the suburbs of Luoyang.

At this time, the land outside Luoyang was actually used for farming less and less.

Instead, it became a place for hunting or leisure.

"That..."

Before Wang Sheng could say anything, the emperor interrupted.

"Properties in other places may be possible, such as Yingchuan, Luoyang, Xingyang, Yuanwu, Hongnong, Xiangcheng, Yewang, Jixian in Hanoi, Nanyang, Runan, Liangguo, Qiaojun, Peiguo, Weijun, Ju

I can allocate land for you in Lu, Hedong, Shangdang, Chang'an, and Guangping."

Sima Yun was also generous. Basically, except Luoyang, Wang Sheng could choose any other place.

But these places also have good and bad qualities.

For example, Yingchuan, where aristocratic families gather, and Chang'an, are now the territory of Sima Yong, the king of Hejian. Even if the emperor approved this land, Wang Sheng would not dare to use it!

There are also several places where there are mostly foreigners or they are adjacent to foreigners.

Wang Sheng wouldn’t even dare to ask for a place like this!

"Your Majesty, can you allow me to use it in a few places?"

After hearing Wang Sheng's words, Sima Yu knew that Wang Sheng's thoughts were not small.

Therefore, the emperor asked: "How many places do you want?"

"Of course, the more, the better."

With the use of new technologies, the yield will naturally be higher. If there are more experimental fields, the harvest will naturally be greater. Information exchange in this era is not that fast. The only way to make up for the shortcomings of information circulation is through quantity.

"You can only choose three."

Sima Yu raised his eyebrows. He had told Wang Sheng so much, but not all of it was going to be given to him.

Appointing and removing a county governor is easy, but removing more than a dozen prefectures and county magistrates at once is somewhat difficult even if he is the emperor.

It's not that it can't be done, but it will cause some turmoil after doing it. These turmoils are not what the emperor wants to see.

three.

Wang Sheng looked troubled.

But in fact, Wang Sheng was secretly happy.

Because he expected that the emperor would be able to find a place for him where he could perform freely, and it would be nice to have one.

However, three is not too many.

"Five!"

Sima Yu laughed angrily at Wang Sheng.

"You dare to bargain with me?"

Wang Sheng quickly knelt down.

"I don't dare."

"If I give you three places, I will have to waste a lot of energy. If I give you more, I am afraid that the whole government and the public will become excited."

Wang Sheng naturally understands the principle of accepting things when they are good.

Speaking of which, it was because his qualifications and background were too low.

Taking three counties from afar is already beyond the control. If there are more, people in the court will start talking.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."

"Choose these three."

"This will be answered by Your Majesty later."

The emperor gave these places, but Wang Sheng still needs to think about it.

Sima Yu nodded slightly, but still gave Wang Sheng a reminder.

"I believe in your talent. It is enough to govern not only three counties, but also the country. But since I have given you this kind of power, you don't want to mess up anything."

This is also a warning.

When Sima Yu promoted Wang Sheng, he naturally endured a lot of pressure.

If Wang Sheng messed up this matter, it would be difficult for him to reuse Wang Sheng in the future.

According to Sima Yu's plan, after Princess Guangping marries Wang Sheng next year, he will conduct a thorough cleaning of the court.

When he gathers beauties, he really wants to enjoy them. If he keeps following his previous method of governing the country, he will not be able to handle it before the country is cured.

On the other hand, Sima Yu wanted to confuse the enemy.

Why should you be wary of an emperor who is not enthusiastic about government affairs?

The courtiers who are interested are in a state of turmoil, and the ambitious kings are in turmoil.

When the time comes, he will jump out and kill these people in one fell swoop. Wouldn’t it be beautiful?

This is the emperor's idea.

As Sima Yu's lone minister, Wang Sheng played a very important role in this link.

"Your Majesty, I understand."

"Also, don't delay your recruitment process too long."

The emperor's time is precious, and Wang Sheng naturally knows that.

"Within one month, we will be able to recruit talented people."

"Yes!"

After giving these instructions, Sima Yu nodded slightly and went to the palace.

Wang Sheng looked at Sima Yu's back and shook his head slightly.

It's a pity that my power is still too small, and there are many things I can't do!

However, it is enough for the people of the Jin Dynasty now.

For a time, only Wang Sheng and some internal officials were left in the huge Tai Chi Hall.

Of course, the purity of Tai Chi Hall did not last long.

After Xumi.

Wang Yan led everyone from the Chancellor's Desk into the hall, and the Tai Chi Hall immediately became lively.

After that, King Yan Sima Tong came in with a group of people from Zhongshu Province, and the Tai Chi Hall became even more lively.

Although Wang Sheng was sitting in the chief position, except for a few internal officials and miscellaneous people, there was no one else under him.

On the other hand, Wang Yan and Sima Tong were surrounded by crowds.

That posture made it even more obvious that Wang Sheng's side was weak.

Coupled with Sima Tong's hostility and provocation from time to time, the smell of gunpowder in Tai Chi Hall was a little stronger.

Fortunately, when reviewing the memorial, Wang Sheng only carried out some inspection processes, so the workload was not heavy.

Naturally, there will be less dealing with Sima Tong.

Therefore, the smell of gunpowder is just the smell of gunpowder in the end, and it has not evolved into a real hand-to-hand battle.

However, reviewing memorials, with this variable, is interesting and not boring.

Otherwise, how boring would such a mechanical job be?

Of course, when Wang Sheng reviewed the memorial, he did not make the final decision alone.

Among these memorials, Wang Sheng would secretly seize the important memorials and have the internal officials send them to Sima Yu's palace. Other less important information was directly approved by the opinions of the three parties.

However, from this aspect alone, the power Wang Sheng holds is not small.

........

Wang Dao's residence.

There was a woman in the courtyard. Her long black hair flowed between her snow-white fingers, and was tied into a bun. Her jade hairpin was loosely tied up, and a golden hairpin was inserted into it. Her long beaded ornaments trembled.

Hanging down, swaying between the temples, the eyebrows are dark and dark, the skin is as white as grease without applying powder, the lips are pursed, as beautiful as a pill, the coral chain and the ruby ​​bracelet are gesticulating between the wrists, and finally the crimson bead chain

Putting on Hao Wan, white as snow, red as fire, eye-catchingly bright, wearing a bright yellow skirt, tied with an emerald ribbon around the waist, showing off her graceful figure, wandering in front of the mirror, all kinds of charm

End your life.

Wang Kelan dressed up like this, of course to welcome someone important.

This important person is no one else, but the Yang girl from Sangong Cao's mansion.

It’s just that after waiting for so long, the agreed time has already passed.

Sister Sheep is still not there.

Sister Sheep is not one to break an appointment.

Wang Kelan had a look of urgency on his face.

"Why don't you think Sister Sheep has arrived yet? Isn't it because she's not coming?"

Feeling anxious, Wang Kelan asked the maid next to him.

The maid quickly shook her head and said: "With the temperament of the Yang family girl, since she has agreed, she will not not come."

Wang Kelan nodded heavily, deeply convinced.

She has very few friends in Luoyang. Apart from friends of the Langya Wang family, Yang Xianrong is one of the very few.

In this era, women rarely go out. As long as they are friends, they are the kind of close friends.

Wang Kelan was like this to Yang Xianrong, and the latter was naturally the same.

If there is no reason, who would break an appointment?

"Perhaps something happened to the Yang Mansion."

Wang Kelan retorted.

"As long as it's not something earth-shattering, what can happen to the Yang Mansion? Besides, Mr. Yang is still serving at the Secretariat!"

That's the thing.

But since we have made an appointment, the Yang family will not stop it.

Maybe something really happened.

Wang Kelan felt a little upset.

"Just unload all these pearls and jade. I'm going to Yang Mansion to find Sister Yang."

"this..."

The maid had a troubled look on her face.

"My lord just wanted the girl to stay at home properly."

"Don't be afraid. I'm looking for Sister Sheep, not a man."

The maid also knew that she could not defeat Wang Kelan, and because Director Wang loved her so much, she would never be punished, so she nodded lightly.

After taking off the decoration on his head, Wang Kelan put on simple and elegant clothes and prepared a gauze hat to go out.

The two of them left the house just like that.

Soon, Wang Kelan arrived outside the gate of Yangfu.

Wang Kelan was the descendant of the Langya Wang family. Although he did not have a name tag, he showed the badge of the Langya Wang family and the guard immediately went in to report it.

The person who came to greet Wang Kelan was the steward of Yang Mansion.

"Your Excellency, my girl is currently in the mansion. She is ill and cannot see guests."

Feeling ill?

Wang Kelan frowned and said: "I saw Sister Yang two days ago and she was fine. Within these two days, she became ill. I want to see Sister Yang. Do you dare to stop me? Besides, even if it is

Sister Sheep is in ill health, and as your girl's confidant, I should go in and visit her."

"but..."

The steward also wanted to say that his daughter had not yet left the court, so it was difficult to meet guests, but when he thought that the person in front of him was not a husband, but a girl, the words reached his throat and he could not spit them out.

"I..."

"I think you should go and report again, I will just meet you once."

The steward couldn't resist Wang Kelan, so he had to run back to the house.

The house was already filled with sorrow.

Yang Xuanzhi was helpless and reluctant to bear the death of his daughter, so he had no choice but to tell the story of the incident.

When this was said, the two women in the family immediately burst into tears.

Not only was Yang Xianrong reduced to tears, but his wife's tears were also streaming down her face.

Just then, the steward came in.

"My lord, the girl from the Langya Wang family insists on seeing the girl. If I look at him like that, I'm afraid I won't go back until I see the eldest girl."

Yang Xuanzhi was furious now and immediately reprimanded: "See you, if you have anything useful to see, send me away."

The steward also felt that he was asking for trouble and quickly agreed.

But at this time, Yang Xianrong stepped forward.

"Father, Wang Kelan is my daughter's best friend, and today my daughter is going to the palace to see her. No matter what, let the woman see her."

Seeing his daughter's stubborn appearance, Yang Xuanzhi's heart softened and he nodded lightly.

"Go, go, if you want to see me, go see me."

Yang Xianrong wiped the tears on his face and said to the steward: "Bring the Wang family girl to my boudoir."

"promise."

The steward responded and hurriedly backed away.

Outside the house, Wang Kelan, led by the steward, immediately arrived outside Yang Xianrong's boudoir.

When it comes to mansions, the mansions of the Langya Wang family are better than Yang Xuanzhi's mansion. Although the surrounding scenery is slightly different, it still doesn't make Wang Kelan's eyes light up.

The steward sent Wang Kelan to the door and then left.

Wang Kelan glanced at the maid behind him, then went up and knocked on the door.

Bang bang bang~

"Come in." A weak voice came from the room.

The door was ajar and unlocked.

Wang Kelan pushed the door open and entered, and the sight she saw made her heart twitch.

At this time, Yang Xianrong squatted down with his hands covering his face, sobbing softly, and tears silently flowed down his fingers.

"Sister Yang, what happened?"

Seeing this scene, Wang Kelan rushed up to support Yang Xianrong.

When the latter heard Wang Kelan's voice, he cried even louder.

She was lying prone on the bed, her whole body twitching, and her suppressed, painful cries seemed to be extracted with difficulty from the depths of her soul, spreading throughout the room, weaving a picture of dark blue sorrow.

The sun outside the window seemed to be blocked by clouds, and the light in the room became hazy and light.

Hearing this cry, Wang Kelan felt even more distressed, and quickly took the sheep Xianrong into his arms.

"Sister, please don't cry. If you cry like this, my sister's heart will be disturbed by your crying."

But Yang Xianrong was still crying, heartbroken.

"What happened? Sister should tell her sister!"

After crying in Wang Kelan's arms for a long time, Yang Xianrong's crying finally subsided, and only the sobs remained.

She raised her head and looked at Wang Kelan.

Yang Xianrong's long eyelashes were covered with teardrops, as beautiful as hibiscus. The teardrops seemed to be nostalgic for the white skin and refused to fall.

If a man saw this look, he would want to hold her in his arms and cherish her.

Wang Kelan was a woman, so when she saw Yang Xianrong with this appearance, the protective desire in her heart was aroused.

"Sister, you are talking. It's a big deal, but you still have a sister."

When Yang Xianrong heard this, he lay on the bed again and cried softly.

"Sister, you..."

Seeing that Yang Xianrong stopped talking for a short time, Wang Kelan gently patted Yang Xianrong on the back.

A quarter of an hour later.

Yang Xianrong looked like he was tired from crying.

"Can you tell me now, sister?"

"This matter has nothing to do with my sister. Besides, even if my sister has a heart, she is powerless."

Things look really big.

Wang Kelan said quickly: "I have come up with all the solutions. I can go to my brother. By the way, my brother is related to Marquis Guangyuan. Even if my brother can't solve it, this matter will not be solved even by Marquis Guangyuan."

Can’t solve it?”

Upon hearing Marquis Guangyuan, Yang Xianrong slowly raised his head.

"This matter is related to Your Majesty and King Zhao."

"Hiss~"

Wang Kelan took a breath of air.

Since it has something to do with His Majesty and King Zhao, this matter is really no small matter.

Ordinary people really can't solve it.

But seeing Yang Xianrong's expression, Wang Kelan gritted his teeth and said, "Sister, just tell me the cause and effect of the matter."

There was hesitation in Yang Xianrong's eyes. He hesitated for a long time before slowly telling the story.

After saying this, Wang Kelan also fell silent.

It's actually related to the emperor's talent show.

this....

"If my sister has no other choice, then she shouldn't interfere. Maybe entering the palace is not a bad thing."

Yang Xianrong looked determined.

"no!"

Wang Kelan didn't think so.

"It's okay to just pick a show. If this matter has something to do with King Zhao, how can it be a good thing? No, no, no!"

Moreover, if the emperor actually chooses a show, he must choose girls of suitable age from various families.

Wang Kelan suddenly thought of it.

She is also age appropriate.

This moment...
