blind concubine

Chapter 49

"Yes, I obey! In the eastern region, there are a total population of more than 27 people registered with the Ministry of Households, and the annual tax paid to the treasury is 150 million taels of silver. The registered population is more than 23, and the annual tax paid to the treasury is 160 million taels of silver. The climate is very close to that of the east, but there are occasional plagues, and the people live normally. The southern border has a population of 29, and the tax is paid to the treasury every year. It is 1505 million taels of silver, and there are occasional droughts in autumn and winter, but generally speaking, the people live a normal life. As for the northern region..." Mr. Chen paused before speaking again: "The total territory of the northern region is smaller than that of the other three regions combined. It needs to be big because it is connected to the Qingling River, but the total population is only more than 13, and the number is extremely inaccurate. Due to frequent deaths and extremely irregular newborn population, 50 taels of silver are allocated from the treasury every year to relieve the suffering of the people. As long as there is a little more rainfall, the Qingling River will flood, submerging the houses and fields of the people, and there will be drought in July and August. The plague will occur almost every two or three years, and countless deaths and injuries will occur... the entire Qingling The imperial dynasty is in a state of poverty, and the imperial court has been unable to find a good way to cure it, so it can only allocate funds every year to keep the people from starving to death!" Lord Chen's voice silenced the entire hall.

There are fifteen cities in the Qingling Dynasty. Although they are not fat and oily, they are not as impoverished as Beidi!It doesn't matter which city is granted to the Seventh Prince, why not this northern land?This northern land is given to others, and no one wants it!

But... Hey, who made the Seventh Prince lose to the Sixth Prince?The east, west, and south regions are all crowned kings, and only the north is missing!
"Father, please think twice..." Ning Tiankang said pleadingly, Father doesn't really want to seal Seventh Brother to King of the North, does he?

"Father, if you don't want to confer a city to the Seventh Brother, it's fine. Now that the Seventh Brother is the Northern King, if the news spreads, I'm afraid that someone with a heart will accuse my son of being framed!" Ning Tianqi looked deeply. The other three kings glanced at each other, then turned to the emperor and said.

The three kings all deeply felt the sight of Ning Tianqi just now, and smiled wryly in their hearts. This prince is clearly determined to let the seventh prince go to the North King.If they don't make a sound at this time, I'm afraid they will offend the new emperor!

"Father, although the northern land is difficult, but the territory is vast, the population is small, and natural disasters occur frequently, but... the prince of the fiefdom does not go to enjoy the blessings and pleasures of the fiefdom. The seven princes are benevolent and gentle. The king's governance is very orderly." Dong Wang said boldly and stepped forward.

"Father, what the Eastern King said is exactly what I want to say, please think twice!"

"Father..."

"I passed on the imperial decree that the seventh prince, Ning Tianhe, conferred the Northern King, and Shui Bingxuan was canonized as the Northern Princess. He set off in three days, and the court allocated funds every year as usual. In addition, in order to encourage the Seventh Prince to do his best to govern the Northern King, I specially issued a letter from 200 million taels of silver will be allocated from the national treasury to be used by the Seventh Prince to govern the Northland! This is it!"

"Father is kind... for three days? This...how is it too late?" Ning Tiankang heard that Jun Jun's face was full of anxiety!
Ning Tianqi's face was a little distracted, she...was made the Northern Princess!Are you going to the Northland in such a hurry?

"Tianqi..."

"My son is here!" Ning Tianqi couldn't tell what he was feeling, but when he heard that his father made her the Northern Princess, he couldn't help feeling depressed!Shouldn't he be happy?Why is he so sad?
"You pass the imperial decree!" The emperor ordered calmly!

"My son complies with the order!" Ning Tianqi didn't feel at all relaxed at the moment, what does this mean?When he chose to use her, she was just a pawn to him. Now that her pawn has played a great role, why can't he feel happy?
"Ning Tiankang was crowned Lord Kang, in charge of the Ministry of War, and assisting His Highness the Crown Prince in governing the world!" Before the people present could sympathize with the Seventh Prince, the emperor's words made people sigh again, the same people have different fates!The Eighth Prince got a good job. Not only can he stay in the capital, but he can also take charge of the Ministry of War!On the other hand, the Seventh Prince... hey!Let alone the woman who is married to the sixth prince, she still has to go to Beiwang, and maybe she will never return to the capital for the rest of her life!

The emperor turned a blind eye to the changes on the faces of the ministers!He secretly sighed in his heart, He'er, Father has already done his best for you. Keeping you in the capital will undoubtedly become a thorn in Tianqi's eyes and a thorn in his flesh. As time goes by, he will definitely find a way to pull it out...

Although the northern border is poor, you are a prince, and your life will not be too bad!You are far away from Beijing, but the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so you can live a free and comfortable life. I hope... you can understand the painstaking efforts of the emperor!

"Eunuch Liu, declare the imperial edict!"

"Yes" Eunuch Liu held the imperial edict in his hand: "His Royal Highness accepts the edict!"

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

All the people present knelt down, waiting quietly for the imperial decree that they had already understood!

"Following the fate of the heavens, the emperor's edict said, I inherit the fate of the emperor, Hong Xiu, a sage, has been here for forty years, old and weak, and has been unable to handle the country's political affairs. The emperor's sixth son, Tianqi, is my blood relative. Supported by the hearts of the people, and blessed by the heavens, civil and military ministers inside and outside, as well as senior soldiers and civilians, co-operate to persuade them to advance, and I would like to appeal to the world at this time, and be crowned prince! I hope that he will think deeply about the weight of entrustment, and truly work hard. Only my emperor Nephew Daxing Emperor, Yunfu Yingcheng, Ye Chengxi Qia! He ascended the throne on the eighth day of July in the 40th year of the Qingling Dynasty as the new emperor! This is it!"

The eighth day of July?Isn't the new emperor ascending the throne in a month?

Fu garden
Ning Tianhe took the imperial decree from Ning Tianqi's hands calmly, and said gently and politely: "Congratulations to Your Highness for ascending the throne in one month, but I will go to the North King in three days, so I can only congratulate Your Highness here." .”

Ning Tianqi was a little absent-minded... He knew she was in this Fu garden!Now that everything is as he wanted, he should be happy, shouldn't he?
"His Royal Highness?" Ning Tianhe looked at Ning Tianqi and spoke again!Sixth Brother... why are you so absent-minded?
"Well...well, I understand, Brother Seventh Emperor, oh, no, it's time to be the King of the North, is it too late in three days? Do you want me to ask my father to ask the King of the North to set off for the northern border after my hall is enthroned? "The blurted words made Ning Tianqi annoyed. The imperial decree is still in the hands of the Seventh Emperor. Once his words are spread, wouldn't it be a blatant disrespect to his father? This...

Ning Tianhe smiled faintly: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern for my younger brother. My younger brother is grateful for His Highness's change of heart. The prince will be busy with the enthronement ceremony in the next month. It will take ten and a half days for my younger brother to go to the Northland this time." Yue, don't dare to disturb the prince!"

"Then... that's good, I hope the Lord of the North will do his best to govern the people in the Northland well for my Qingling Dynasty!"

"Your brother should do his best!"

"Farewell!"

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Looking at Ning Tianqi's leaving back, Ning Tianhe lowered his eyelashes, King of the North!That's okay... maybe leaving the capital is his only way, just?She has just escaped a catastrophe, and now she has to follow him to the Northland?
"Master, Miss is awake! Do you want to see Miss?" Jing Zhu came in from outside.

"Well, Jing Zhu, go and get ready. We will set off for the Northland in three days. Miss Shui... is the Princess of the North!"

"Master..." Jing Zhu opened his eyes wide, that woman?Is it the princess bestowed by the emperor?this……

"Jingzhu" Ning Tianhe's tone sank.

"Yes, Jing Zhu complies!"

"In addition, please go on, if anyone wants to see the princess, they must report to the princess for a decision!" Three days?It's fine for her internal injuries to take good care of her, but is she going to leave the capital? Can she accept this?
"Master..." Jing Zhu bit her lip, "Yes, Jing Zhu knows!" Shui Bingxuan?How can the woman with the worst reputation in the capital be worthy of being a master?

This time, I don't know if she framed the Lord just because of the sixth prince?

Jing Zhu looked at his master who was leaving, bit Chun Chun and stomped his feet... hurriedly followed.

In the exquisite and elegant wing room, Shui Bingxuan rested with her eyes closed, the pain in her body did not decrease much after a night, she was waiting for the result of the emperor's disposition!
The sound of footsteps outside made her open her eyes, and it seemed that she knew immediately what kind of changes she was about to face.

Ning Tianhe approached the wing room and looked at the person lying on the bed.

"Father's imperial edict has been issued."

"Well" I want to know too!
"We will set off for the Northland in three days!"

three days?Shui Bingxuan knew that there must be nothing good, but Beidi?The rumored representative of the impoverished area?And only three days are given, what can be done in three days?The injuries on her body can't heal!Just let her leave the capital?

The feeling of wanting to kill is getting stronger and stronger, Shui Bingxuan really wants to blow up the capital at this time!damn it……

"You...you can tell Jing Zhu and Jing An to do whatever you need to do! They are very capable!" From the beginning to the end, Ning Tianhe's gaze did not fall on Shui Bingxuan, and he just narrated calmly.

"Master, little...Princess, the girl outside the mansion who calls herself Xianghan is asking to see her, and Jiang Yibo, the young master of the Jiang manor, is here together!" Jing An was a young man in his twenties, with a handsome appearance and a calm personality.

Ning Tianhe looked at Shui Bingxuan and asked if she wanted to see her?

"Please come in!" As soon as Shui Bingxuan's words came out, Jing An and Jing Zhu looked surprised.

"What? Can't see guests?" Shui Bingxuan looked at the faces of the two and raised her eyebrows!
"The concubine means to invite the two guests into the wing?" Jing An glanced at the master, and confirmed to Shui Bingxuan!

"is it not OK?"

Of course not, you are now the concubine of the Lord, how can you just invite a man into the wing?Jing An hesitated, wondering if he should speak out what was in his heart!
"Jing An, do as the concubine ordered!" Ning Tianhe's words also made Jing An's eyes widen, and he replied unwillingly, "Yes, Lord."

Jiang Yibo was sitting in the living room, not in the mood to look at the exquisite and simple garden in front of him. In fact, he was extremely restless now. He was afraid of seeing her, but he had to see her!
