Chapter 268
Murong Xu is so wise.
His daughter has always been lawless, and his son is useless.
It just so happened that Jiang Han came to the outside world and let him take care of these two guys, saving himself from worrying.
If Xiyue is interested in Jiang Han and intermarries with this kid, it will definitely keep Jiang Han's heart.
Jiang Han is in a land outside the barbarians, so he has money and status.
Taking ten thousand steps back, even if there is turmoil in the Eastern Region in the future, the princess and the prince will have a way out.
Of course, this is just a passing thought right now.
How capable Jiang Han is, and whether he can meet the princess's wishes, depends on luck.
If the princess has no intentions for him, he thinks that he will rule the world, and there is no need to wrong his most precious daughter.
"Okay, then I will listen to my father."
"If this Jiang Han dares to make me angry again tomorrow, I will ask the guards to kill him." Xiyue said angrily.
"Sister, don't worry, we will see this kid tomorrow, and then we will make him look good." Murong Fei also echoed.
The next day.
Jiang Han still has no plans to start work.
It doesn't take long to measure mine deposits with the monitors provided by the system.
On the contrary, in order to gain a firm foothold outside the territory, personnel relations are more important.
Jiang Han has been dealing with Qian Shiqiu and others these days.
As the richest man in Wangcheng, Qian Shiqiu has extremely broad contacts and vision.
At the same time, Jiang Han went to the post house in Shunfeng again.
The person in charge of the downwind channel here is Xu Wang.
A very shrewd and able man.
This time, however, he went secretly and in disguise.
the reason is simple.
Unlike the Southern Territory, there are Xionggui officials who are connected and allow the existence of Taifeng.
After all, Murong Xu came here to usurp the throne, and he supervised the trade routes extremely strictly.
Except for Qian Shiqiu and Guo Tu who supported him at the beginning, the "insiders" were all under the high-pressure monitoring of Huanglong's guards.
the reason is simple.
Money and power have always been together.
Murong Xu was brought up by mutiny and merchants, and he would never allow anyone to pay for another king.
Under such circumstances, Xu Wang was able to open up a secret transportation channel without being discovered by Murong Xu.
It can be seen that this person's resourcefulness and ingenuity are both excellent.
"Master Jiang!"
"This is our horse farm. Every year, I ask for famous horses from the Northern Territory with a lot of money, and use them to breed them and produce good horses."
"Murong Xu still has something to do in his bones, and he also has a strategic vision, so he acquiesced in my existence."
"Of course, all around the racecourse are his spies, and every horse is also naturalized."
"We spent so much money in exchange for a salt tunnel."
"Murong Xu agreed that my caravan will be responsible for the transportation of the salt road from the East China Sea to the capital."
"And our Shunfeng's goods came through the salt road, then turned to the sea, and went straight to the border of the Southern Region. That's how it came."
Xu Wang knew that Jiang Han came with the badge of the third elder, so he didn't hide it from him.
Another point is that he is very optimistic about Jiang Han.
Now the Outer Territory is a four-legged confrontation, but Jiang Han can turn the world upside down when he comes.
Young and capable, such a person can accomplish great things.
Xu Wang has already settled down in the Eastern Region, and what he hopes most now is to follow a king and seek eternal wealth.
His vicious eyes can see that Jiang Han has such ambitions.
"Ah."
"When necessary, we still need to prepare the back road and dig tunnels."
"I have a hunch that sooner or later Murong Xu will swing the butcher's knife, you and I have to be prepared." Jiang Han said.
"Master Jiang, could it be..." Xu Wang was ecstatic.
Jiang Han smiled and said nothing.
"You know that in the Eastern Region, who else exists in the lineage of Qinglong? The more influential one." Jiang Han asked.
"Old Chen Guo of the Qinglong Dynasty, this man is the elder of the three dynasties, he is well respected in the army and in the court."
"Murong Xu appointed Chen Guolao in order to stabilize people's hearts. Unfortunately, he is old and his health is no longer what it used to be. Even if you want to get his support, it may be difficult to get your wish." Xu Wang said.
"Then if Mr. Chen is not sick, is he in good health?" Jiang Han asked with a smile.
"Old Chen Guo is willing to come out and preside over the overall situation. As long as the army enters the royal city, it will be difficult for Murong Xu to sit still."
"Don't look at him as a high-ranking man now, most of the hearts in this king's city are still thinking of the former king."
"Just look at the deposed prince. There are still many people who secretly sympathize and support him."
"Otherwise, he would have been executed back then, and he wouldn't be alive now."
Xu Wang analyzed.
"Well, that's enough."
"I'll visit Chen Guolao some other day," Jiang Han said.
Leaving the post house, Jiang Han was stopped by Zhu Jin as soon as he returned to the mansion: "Jiang Meng, the king has an order to call you into the palace."
"Is there another court meeting today?" Jiang Han asked curiously.
"No, but did you offend someone?" Zhu Jin asked.
Jiang Han remembered: "Yes, I spanked Princess Xiyue's ass."
Zhu Jin sighed again and again: "That is more expensive than a tiger's butt, how can it be touched casually?"
"I've touched it all, let's go, go around the palace and see what our princess thinks." Jiang Han smiled.
"You, you, ask yourself to be blessed."
"Our princess is notoriously savage, she might give you some problems." Zhu Jin shook his head again and again.
After entering the palace, Murong Xu put down the memorial in his hand.
"Jiang Aiqing, Princess Xiyue said that you bullied her and let the lonely king kill you, what do you think?" Murong Xu asked majestically.
"Is there any king in the world? If the king wants to kill his foreign ministers, even if the foreign ministers have a hundred heads, they can only admit to chopping them off." Jiang Han cupped his hands and said.
"Haha, your mouth is round and square, you can say it."
"How about this, the princess is at the horse farm, you go there for a while, if you can persuade her not to kill you, the lonely king will let you go."
"If the princess still doesn't let you go, Mr. Zhu knows the temper of the daughter of the lonely king, and the lonely king is helpless."
Murong Xu laughed and waved his hands.
Immediately, a servant led Jiang Han to the racecourse.
This is the royal racecourse, only princes and nobles are eligible to enter.
Many young men and women inside, all relatives of the emperor, were riding horses and swinging sticks, playing polo.
"Princess, His Royal Highness, Mr. Jiang is here." The servant said.
"Hmph, let him wait."
"When the princess and I win this round, we will settle the score with him."
Murong Fei said.
After speaking, he galloped past on horseback.
After a while, Murong Fei and Murong Xiyue came over gloomyly on horseback.
"I'm so pissed off. Prince Guo won again. His subordinate Xie Jun is too powerful."
Murong Xiyue pouted and walked over.
"Princess, what's the difficulty in winning him?" Jiang Han asked.
"You are a person waiting to die, you can only speak wild words."
"This polo is not a fight. Physical contact is not allowed. It all depends on arm strength."
"Besides, it's not enough to have brute force, but also to have accuracy. Don't think that you can play well if you know a little bit of kung fu."
Murong Xiyue glared at him and said.
"Why don't I go out and play with the princess, and if I win, I'll keep my head."
"If I lose, it happens that the princess can cut off my head to vent her anger."
Jiang Han smiled happily.
