Chapter 57

The most fashionable topics when the people of Lingzhou City meet now are about the upcoming princess wedding. What a blessing it would be to marry Shuofang, the most favored princess of the dynasty? In order to create an atmosphere of celebration, Wang Chongwen announced a month ago that he had exempted the taxes and corvee service of the counties under Lingzhou for half a year.★W    w√W.

On the day when the wedding was approaching, Xie Bozhi set up seven porridge shops outside Lingzhou City, and opened the porridge for three months. The beggars in the city and refugees who had no food and clothing brought their families to build houses around the porridge shop.

Xie Bozhi often does charity activities, but he is not a philanthropist. He has a hidden goal of organizing this charity activity: to drive refugees and beggars in the city to the best of their ability. On the day of the princess’ wedding, there were thousands of distinguished guests, so it was really unsightly to let these beggars stay in the city. As for those refugees, it was not only unsightly to see, but also a source of danger.

Shuofang is a northwest border town in the Tang Dynasty, guarding against Tubo, a mortal enemy that existed since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. The long-term and harsh struggle has left this city with nearly 100,000 people in a state of tension. It is not so much a city as a military fortress. Everyone in the city has household registration, neighbors, security chiefs, and county magistrates closely control the movements of every household. They will never give any opportunity to take advantage of the enemy forces.

However, because of the large number of refugees and beggars, they are not within the control of the government. In the past twenty years, Lingzhou City has fallen three times, and strong enemies cannot break from the outside, so they sent spies to mix with refugees and cooperate with them to break through the city. Without refugees, there will be no spies, and without spies, Lingzhou An, Lingzhou An, and Lingzhou An, will always wear the black veil of someone who has been safe.

It is not easy for a princess to use a knife and a gun to drive the beggars and refugees out of the city. It is not an easy task. This is a very test of the wisdom of the ruling people. Xie Bozhi did it and did it perfectly. The second day after the porridge farm was opened, the beggars and refugees in the city suddenly decreased by 90%, and the remaining 10% were led by the chief, and the chief guards were all "persuaded" to go out in various parts.

Lingzhou City was refreshing, and Xie Bozhi was full of confidence. As a key minister, counselor and official in Shuofang, Xie Bozhi became the main trader of the wedding of the young marshal and the princess indisputably. Xie Bozhi was not caught by the big or small, and it was thankless to grasp the details, and he would invisibly fall into his identity. Therefore, although Lingzhou City was in chaos due to the approaching wedding, Xie Bozhi's life was not greatly affected. After dinner every day, he still had to take a walk on the Tangjin River outside the back door of the mansion for a walk.

Tang Jinhe said that it was a river, which was actually an artificial canal, with the purpose of introducing the living water of the Yellow River into Yacheng in the northeast corner of the city. Wang Chongwen liked mountains and water more. After he succeeded as the governor of Shuofang, he piled up a mountain of earth with soil and stones in Yacheng, and used the pits left by excavation to introduce living water to build a pool of water. From then on, there was a good place for mountains and water in Lingzhou City. Wang Chongwen named his proud work "Shanshuitai".

On the day the "Shanshui Platform" was built, the disciples raised by the Wang family wrote hundreds of poems in one breath, which was also a grand event in the literary world of Lingzhou. Xie Bozhi collected these poems into a collection of essays and engraved them into a book to present them to Wang Chongwen. He was deeply admired by Wang. Xie Bozhi also planned to select some well-known poems and essays, and asked everyone to carve their calligraphy on the stone tablets and build a stele forest under the mountain and water platform. Add a rich and colorful stroke to the event culture of Lingzhou! That's it.

Xie Bozhi had a clever plan on the banks of the Tangjin River, so he hurried back to the mansion to summon several of the most trusted aides to plan the matter separately. After the arrangement was completed, he lay on the soft couch and hummed a small song and felt contented.

"Master, why did you succeed like this?"

Xie Bozhi's most favored concubine Hu Ling'er walked over with a plate of green plums. Hu Ling'er's skin was dark, tall and thick, her peaks were tall, and her buttocks were round. Xie Bozhi held down Myolie Wu's buttocks hard, pinched her hard, rubbed her hard, and had a lewd smile on her face. Hu Ling'er sat on his lap. Xie Bozhi started "Ouch", and his thin legs could not support Hu Ling'er's heavy body.

"Master, you are not allowed to open your eyes to my family."

Seeing Xie Bozhi's face showing anger, Hu Ling'er hurriedly acted coquettishly and begged for mercy. Xie Bozhi is famous for being petty and loves to hold grudges. If he really angered him, he would never have a good end. Hu Ling'er knelt in front of Xie Bozhi's feet, like a gentle cat, constantly rubbing the inner side of Xie Bozhi's thigh with his head.

Xie Bozhi was happy and stroked Hu Ling'er's head and said, "I will spare you this time. I will make you lose everything next time. I will definitely cut you one by one and eat it." Hu Ling'er smiled silly, hurriedly got up and picked up a plum and stuffed it into Xie Bozhi's mouth. The plum was green and astringent, but Xie Bozhi chewed it deliciously. He fed Hu Ling'er one, and Hu Ling'er also chewed it heavily, making it look very useful. In fact, she didn't like the bitter fruit at all.

Now that men and women have fallen off, Xie Bozhi sat on Hu Ling'er's thighs. Hu Ling'er's legs are not thick. Fortunately, Xie Bozhi's figure is less than 100 pounds, and Hu Ling'er can still hold on with gritting her teeth. However, as Xie Bozhi's movements on her legs became bigger and bigger, a layer of sweat also oozed out of Hu Ling'er's forehead.

Xie Fang, the chief butler of Xie's house, stood under the eaves of the corridor and looked inside. Hu Ling'er seized the opportunity and hurriedly pushed Xie Bozhi away. Xie Bozhi hated that someone was disturbing at this time, and his anger was all over Xie Fang. He picked up the golden tray containing plum cores and smashed it hard at Xie Fang. Xie Fang dodged lightly, Xie Bozhi hated him to dodge and threw it all over the teapot and tea bowl on the table as weapons.

Xie Fang avoided the teapot and did not avoid the tea bowl, but flowers bloomed on her forehead. Xie Bozhi breathed a sigh of relief, and he lay on the soft chair, raised his legs and asked, "What's the matter, let's say it."

Xie Fang covered her head and came forward, looked at Hu Ling'er, and stopped talking. Xie Bozhi slapped Hu Ling'er's butt. Hu Ling'er felt relieved and hurriedly escaped, but she still had a look of unyielding expression on her face.

"Master, what do you think this is?" Xie Fang held two crystal clear luminous beads with a brocade handkerchief.

"Where did it come from?!" Xie Bozhi's eyes shone and he grabbed two beads in his hand. Xie Bozhi was the most admirer. He could tell at a glance that these two beads were priceless treasures.

"It was offered by Fengzhou Guansuo." Xie Fang leaned into Xie Bozhi's ear and said softly.

Xie Bozhi subconsciously looked at the doors and windows and asked in a low voice: "Where is the others?"

"I have arrived at the backyard." Xie Fang replied anxiously, and it was entirely his own decision to take the guard into the backyard. If Xie Bozhi wanted to blame him, he would not have been beaten with a teapot or a few tea bowls.

Xie Bozhi's face changed three times in an instant. After hesitating for a long time, he called Xie Fang to the front and whispered: "Go and tell him, I can't help with this matter. I can't accept this thing either." He returned the two luminous beads to Xie Fang. Xie Fang asked in shock: "The master hasn't seen him yet, how do you know what he asked you to do?"

Xie Bozhi sneered and said, "If I can't even guess this, you are my master."

Xie Fang didn't dare to ask more questions and hurriedly put away the night light beads. The house was empty. Xie Bozhi suddenly became extremely anxious, just like a child suddenly lost his beloved toy, restless. He paced around and around, looking at the door from time to time. Several times he walked to the door to try to chase him out, but in the end he retreated.

As time passed, Xie Bozhi felt that many years had passed. At this time, Xie Fang came back. Xie Bozhi suppressed his temper and did not go out.

Xie Fang bent down and bowed, and Xie Bozhi interrupted him roughly: "Have you left?"

There was a burning and expectant look in his eyes. What was he expecting? Xie Fang knew very well that after following Xie Bozhi for so many years, he could still guess the master's thoughts. All of this originated from the two luminous beads. Although Xie Fang could not tell the value of the thing, he knew from the master's gaze that this thing was definitely a rare thing. The treasure delivered to the door was outside the door. This was the first time he had met him in Xie's house for thirteen years.

"Let's go!" Xie Fang said blankly, "Didn't you let him go?"

"Ah..." Xie Bozhi sighed with a high-high, not hiding his disappointment at all. A fire of namelessness surged from the bottom of his heart, and his cheeks and forehead instantly turned red.

"Master..." Xie Fang called out softly, reached out and held out two crystal clear luminous beads.

"Hey, you, didn't you give it back to him?"

Xie Bozhi snatched the two luminous beads from Xie Fang's hand and played with them carefully. They were indeed the two just now. These were really the lost treasures. Looking at Xie Bozhi's joyful look, Xie Fang put down a stone in her heart, and she bet the right place tonight.

Guan Suo gave him a thousand taels of gold to him to introduce Xie Bo. The night light bead was the meeting gift that Guan Suo presented to Xie Bozhi. Seeing the 1,000 taels of yellow canon, Xie Fang decided to go out and have sex with him. Before that, Xie Bozhi had issued a strict order to not see anyone in Fengzhou. "Whoever dares to bring people in, shoot out immediately."

Xie Bozhi refused to help return the luminous pearl to Guan Suo, but Guan Suo refused to take it back. He gave himself a land deed of thousands of acres of fertile land, which was a good land for drought and flood in his hometown Shangzhou. With it, even if he lost this job, he would have no worries about food and drink for the rest of his life. Xie Fang immediately decided to bet again, so he took the risk to bring the two luminous pearls back.

"Oh, it's such a good thing. Everything is empty these days, but only treasures are in hand are real."

Xie Bozhi really liked these two beads the more he looked at them. Xie Fang took the opportunity to speak out: "It's really a waste to fall into other people's hands. It should be kept by the master. It's rare to have sincerity, I think the master will fulfill him."

Xie Bozhi sighed long and said, "It's a pity that Yang Hao escaped another disaster when he took his hand short." Speaking of this, he suddenly turned around and asked Xie Fang: "Do you think Yang Hao is a good person or a bad person?"

Xie Fang opened her mouth wide, and was speechless for a while. After carefully lying in words, she replied: "I can't be considered a good person, but I'm not considered a bad person."

Xie Bozhi nodded in agreement and said, "I'm not a bad person, so I should give me a path to rebirth. Everything cannot be done too well."
