Yijuan cloud

Chapter 244 A night of lingering

The sky is as blue as washing, and the clouds are as white as cotton.

The warm sunshine shines on the green and yellow prairie.

A group of cattle and sheep were grazing leisurely. When the wind stopped, they were no longer visible.

I asked someone to send a letter to Sun Zeyu's temporary apartment, hoping to meet him.

After sending the letter, within about two seconds of burning incense, a horse came driving quickly on the trail on the outskirts of the city.

In the letter, I told Sun Zeyu to leave the city quietly, taking only his confidants with him, but he came alone, without even his entourage.

The boy hiding in the grass led him over.

He rides a maroon horse, wears moon-white embroidered bamboo brocade uniforms, dark green mink feathers, and black-soled soap boots. He has an extraordinary bearing. On the simple and natural prairie, he is extremely eye-catching and out of place, but he looks more and more noble.

From a distance, I saw him staring at me with a smile, his face and eyes full of joy, and he was trying hard to urge the horse under him. Unfortunately, the horse was greedy for grass, walked around, and refused to listen to his command.

Seeing him in such embarrassment, I gave a low scolding, galloped to his side, lifted the curtain, and smiled at him: "How are you, Mr. Sun?"

He raised his hand to bow to me, but unexpectedly he pulled the reins and the horse suddenly started running.

He was so frightened that he kept exclaiming. I hurriedly chased him, let my horse get close to his, reached out and pulled his reins, and then stopped.

After getting off the horse, he looked around, panted slightly, bowed his hands to me and said: "I'm sorry, I made the girl laugh. I also made the girl wait for a long time. When I received the letter from the girl, I was talking to you A group of local colleagues had dinner and then went back to change into regular clothes, which wasted time."

I said: "Master Sun, you are serious. I am the one who disturbed Master Sun."

"No, no, no, don't bother, don't bother, I, I just want to see the girl."

I smiled slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "The banquet hosted by Mr. Jiang?"

Sun Zeyu was stunned for a moment and said: "I am very disgusted with him because I heard what the girl said about his actions, but he is the local magistrate and has great influence in the border areas. I was ordered to run an errand this time and his co-president is indispensable, so it is not good shirk."

"Master Sun, there is no need to explain. Don't I still understand this? Not to mention that you were an official in the same court as him. I have many grudges with him, and we still keep in touch with each other from time to time."

As I said that, I smiled and said casually: "Hey, let me ask you, why did you come to do this job?"

We walked and talked on the grassland.

It is late autumn, the grass has turned yellow, and the wind has become biting.

Sun Zeyu obviously couldn't bear the cold and huddled his shoulders.

When I asked him why he was the messenger, he stretched out his hand, pulled out a piece of grass, twisted it around in his hand, looked up at the sky casually, and then turned to me and smiled shyly:
"I took the initiative to ask for the order. The emperor discussed this matter in the morning and wanted to send an envoy to deal with the affairs of the Tumut Department. I have not seen the grassland, and I know you are here, although, although I don't know you Where exactly is it, but I always thought that I might be able to meet him, so I asked the emperor for permission to go to the frontier as an envoy, and the emperor gave me permission."

I lowered my head and stroked the golden grass beside my knees with my hands. There was still a smile on my face, but I was in a daze for a moment. Fang asked seriously:
"Why doesn't the court allow Sudiya to stand on her own feet? She also wants her to marry Zalik. Do you know what a vulgar person the new King of Shunyi, Zalik, is? He was once Sudiya's stepson!"

After hearing this, Sun Zeyu immediately calmed down, cupped his fists with both hands, arched them towards the south, and said seriously:
"This matter is so big that it is difficult to fully consider the character of the new King of Shunyi. Not to mention the old Mongolian system. Since Anda Khan is dead, Sudiya should remarry the new Great Khan."

"What the girl doesn't know is that our country is calm on the surface, but in fact it is in a difficult situation. The southwestern Luchuan River is fighting for independence. General Chang and his army have been fighting with it for more than a year, and it is still difficult to pacify it. In the area of ​​​​Xiajiao, the sea chaos continues, and the officers and soldiers are tired of dealing with it. Year after year, The treasury is already very empty due to the war.”

"It's rare that there are no border dangers in northern Xinjiang for the time being. In the past two years, it has stretched five thousand miles without beacons and fires. Compared with the situation in the past years when dealing with the Mongolian cavalry, it is extremely difficult. In this situation, Sudiya and I have made great contributions. It must be said that the Holy One thinks that Zalik is not qualified enough to maintain the unity of the Mongolian tribes, and there is no Princess Sudiya who can hold things together."

Sun Zeyu said solemnly: "If Princess Sudiya is no longer a member of the family, what is the use of me conferring a title on Zalik?"

When I came back from hunting, Linghua said there was a letter from Xing'er.

A few words written by the accounting master:
Everything went well and the new guy knew everything.Miss, don’t read it.

It seems that I know people fairly well, so Liao Chen really did his duty.

As soon as I threw the letter into the brazier, a man came to see me.

Linghua opened the cotton curtain and let people in. Through the screen, the clerk said: "The batch of woolen goods imported from the Central Plains was selling well a while ago, but for some reason these days, there is not a single one." Shipping.”

In Northern Xinjiang, Jiang Chujie's power was so intricate that as long as he said something, people from all walks of life would not dare to disobey him.

Fortunately, I was prepared. As long as a few big merchants in Jiangxi and Jiangnan are willing to cooperate with me, even if Beijiang has no customers to take over, I still have Sudiya as my backer.I snorted coldly and thought silently in my heart: "A gentleman's revenge is never too late in ten years. Let's wait and see if the surname is Jiang."

"Girl?" Linghua called me softly and looked at me worriedly.

I then thought about it and said to the guy behind the screen: "Winter is coming soon, and those goods are in short supply. Find a smart and reliable second-hand dealer, sell them to him at a discount, and then let him resell them. In this way, although you can make a profit, It’s less, but it can be cleared as soon as possible.”

The guy left in response.

I was leaning on the soft couch, flipping through my account book, and heard a clear and hearty voice outside, saying:

"You don't need to follow me. I, the princess, will go in alone."

It's Sudya!

I haven't seen her again since our last farewell. I heard that she just got married to Zalik the day before yesterday, but her voice didn't sound downcast at all.

I hurriedly got off the bed and went up to greet him.

Sudiya opened the curtain and came in, her face still bright and charming. As soon as she entered the door, she said: "It's not winter yet, and you have used the Earth Fire Dragon. When winter comes, what will you do?"

I smiled and said, "Why do you have time to come to my place?"

Sudya sat down on the couch and said:
"Isn't it just that I became a bride again? Who the hell is that boy Zalik? I asked him to sleep outside the tent for two nights, and he had to endure being half frozen to death. Tumut, it's me, Sudi. Ya has the final say.”

"The construction of the city has been delayed these days. I am here to discuss with you and ask you to supervise this matter with full authority. If you want money, people or craftsmen, just tell me what you want. I'll see if you can finish building the house. Very well, we are just building a bigger temple."

"I had discussed with Ada Khan before, and we decided to build a few buildings and halls just like the capital city of the previous dynasty, and the bricks used to build the city would also be made of blue bricks."

She said and gave me a Mongol salute: "Miss Lin, no one can complete this except you. I hope Miss Lin can help me."

I helped her up and said with a smile: "I mentioned the construction of the city. Of course I am willing. To be honest, sister Sudia, I am the only house in this prairie, just like the lone wild goose flying in the sky. If it is with you The Tumut tribe is connected across the city, and they all take care of each other. Don’t worry, sister, I will definitely live up to your trust.”

On the day he moved into his new house, Fan Li asked someone to deliver a large screen with a red sandalwood frame.

This is a big gift, extremely valuable. I don't know how much salary it will cost him.

When I saw a few boys carrying it in, I couldn't help but feel a little worried, thinking about how I would return a big gift to him in the future.

Jiang Chujie also ordered people to send gifts.

After everyone in the future was sent away, Sudiya, Sun Zeyu, Lao Hu, and Linghua and I sat around in the warm pavilion to celebrate.

Sun Zeyu came before dark and was surprised to see Sudiya there.

Sudiya was generous and said loudly:

"We don't have any envoys or princesses here today. Friends are gathering together and they won't come home until they're drunk!"

When we were eating and drinking to our heart's content, it snowed outside, and the ground was soon covered with a white layer of snow, like flour accidentally sprinkled on the ground.

After sending them to their rooms to sleep, I stood on the porch and enjoyed the snow for a while.

Suddenly I remembered how to sketch a picture of a palace, so I took a shortcut to the study.

When he walked to the guest room where Sun Zeyu lived, a sweet smile came from inside:
"...Master Sun, don't be nervous. Is this your first time?..."

I suddenly stood on the spot, remembering that she had asked for some fun medicine from me in the past. Could it be that she used it on Sun Zeyu?
I raised my fist and wanted to knock on the door, but the sound of gasping coming from inside made me stop.

That's all, that's all, Xing'er was not taken into Sudiya's account, but he ignored Sun Zeyu, who had no power to restrain the chicken.

He is fair and handsome, and has the air of a scholar. Isn't it that Sudiya likes him?

well!I only thought that Sun Zeyu was the great envoy. How could I have thought that Sudiya would dare to attack him?
This Sudiya, why is she such a seductress!
