Chapter 494.3: To Be This Lacking in Virtue, What Difference From a Muddled Ruler

The fifth month pa.s.sed, and the sixth month arrived. Because of the war, even the important holidays, Le Cheng Emperor all didnt partic.i.p.ate in, so naturally dont count on going to the imperial summer residence. However, the people that can go to the imperial summer residence ultimately were only a few. The great majority of people were all used to the capitals torrid heat.

Li Hong Yuan was never one to let himself suffer, and further wont let his wife suffer, directly just moving to the estate to stay. This time, he didnt even ask Le Cheng Emperor for permission.

Unable to leave for the summer to avoid the heat, many people naturally all acted as such. For the other princes, because only the womenfolk headed over, there was actually no need to inform Le Cheng Emperor.

Li Hong Yuans two estates neighbored one another. The one they resided in for the most part didnt receive outsiders. These outsiders even include his brothers wife and children, but there really werent many that were able to boldly visit their estate and not worry about getting ignored. The majority of people all had self-awareness, not going to receive that kind of treatment, so as to avoid embarra.s.sing themselves.

Just, this other estate was nevertheless opened to the public. Although it wasnt a horse racing day, the rest area was still quite delightful. To be able to have fun while avoiding the heat, it truly couldnt be better. Previously, the focus was on the horse tracks, but now, some people even want to stay here and not leave.

Even the various incidences previously that made people become somewhat fearful of the estate, at this time, all got tossed to the back of the mind.

As such, not only were the people in the nearby estates coming over all day long, quite a few men and women, young and old, from the capital, when free, also came over for a sit. Regardless of which age group, seemingly all were able to find ways to enjoy oneself here. And from the initial deserted atmosphere, to the boiling cauldron of voices afterwards, it also only took less than half a months time.

Such a grand atmosphere, even Jing Wan was all somewhat surprised.

And what the flouris.h.i.+ng popularity brought about was naturally profits pouring in from all sides. To be making piles of gold a day all wasnt an exaggeration.

The income per day perhaps cant compare with the days when horse races were held, but in a month, the total income absolutely will exceed three horse racing compet.i.tions by several times.

All this money made Jing Wans liver somewhat shake from looking.

Li Hong Yuan, after lifting his brow in a bit of surprise in the very beginning, just completely calmed down, even carrying a bit of nonchalant. This kind of situation will only last these two three months. Once it pa.s.ses, it naturally will die down, so how much money can be earned? Moreover, this is a unique place, thus it was like this. Once people secretly start to imitate, it naturally wont be as popular anymore.

Jing Wan laughed, The initial goal although was to provide entertainment for people, but I also never thought of wanting to earn a lot of money, no? Money actually isnt the most important.

Money of course isnt the most important. After all, the wealth in Wan Wans hands, even if you squander away for ten lifetimes, can you even squander it all?

Jing Wan lightly rolled her eyes at him, Squander? Those gemstones, pearls, and jade stones you gathered prior to marrying, without even needing to take apart the old to make new ones, I all wont be able to use up for several lifetimes. And for rouge, powder, and such, all can be taken from the Rouge Pavilion directly. The rest is just the material used to make clothes, but dont you have workshops for spinning and weaving various kinds of material all over the country? How much can I use up on my own? Speaking of which, it seems only the money spent on food is a bit more, but you similarly have quite a few farmland in various regions. Thus, asking Jin Qinw.a.n.g, as such and such, how can I squander money?

Jin Qinw.a.n.g propped up his chin and slightly pondered for a moment, Unable to let ones wife squander money, doesnt that mean that I, this husband, still hasnt done enough?

Exactly was it not having done enough, or having done too much? This wasnt deprecating oneself, but rather blatantly showing off! If said to the outside, one will just get beaten to death.

Then Wan Wan, how about, in the future, well just spend money to buy from the outside?

You really are something. Spending money to buy from the outside, never mind having to spend more money, the things absolutely wont be that good. After all, those things that Jin Qinw.a.n.g gathered, many all cant be bought with money. Doing this just for the sake of accomplis.h.i.+ng the achievement of squandering money, exactly how stupid would one have to be?

Alright, looks like destined to be unable to let Wan Wan squander money. My wife has become the most frugal w.a.n.gfei in history.

The corner of Jing Wans mouth twitched, once again not wanting to speak with him. No matter how frugal she was, it was still impossible to reach the so called most. Just based on her understanding of history, the w.a.n.gyes that ended up declining in wealth due to various reasons, in the end, all needed their w.a.n.gfei to secretly cut and save to help subsidize the family expenses, all hating that a single copper coin cant split into two. Getting forced by life into such a circ.u.mstance, they can even compete with the most stingy housewives.

And the current Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor, truthfully speaking, even if the money shes spend isnt considered a lot, compared to the other princes manors, it was still very extravagant. Thats why, she really wasnt able to be shameless like a certain someone.

Ah Yuan, the plan targeting West Xiongnu and North Xiongnu, its already begun carrying out? Jing Wan softly asked.

En, indeed.

If the plan succeeds, West Xiongnus current situation will just have some changes?

Fu Yun Ting ultimately will win a few battles. Otherwise, wouldnt he be even worse than his past life? After all, weve long given him support, his starting point already completely different. However, the commander of the West Xiongnu and North Xiongnu alliance is West Xiongnus Daxian w.a.n.g (Great Sage King). This persons prestige in West Xiongnu is very high. Moreover, in his youth, he has lived and studied in many countries before such as Qi Yuan, Former Wei, Souther Qi, and even Cang Jin. Towards these countries, he can be said to have a deep understanding. If he long had the ambitions, then afraid at that time, he wouldve already conducted a certain degree of a.n.a.lysis towards the various countries military. He absolutely can be said to be full of strategies. Xiongnus army already excelled at fighting to begin with, and by having such a commander, they will inevitably become a very hard to gnaw bone.

Thats why, to want to beat Xiongnu, just breaking apart the alliance isnt enough. The most crucial point is still this Daxian w.a.n.g?

However, this Daxian w.a.n.g isnt without weaknesses either. After all, Xiongnus interior is also full of power struggles. Power, this kind of thing, no matter where, is always something enticing. There will inevitably be people that want to monopolize all the power. Once someone becomes a hinderance, they naturally will want to think of ways to eliminate, even if this person, for the country and for the people, is all very important.

Precisely because hes important, thats why, they further want to eliminate.

Thats right, this kind of person, unless sitting in the highest position, otherwise will always attract the most enemies, getting held back by various parties, getting obstructed on all sides.

Thats why, what this man before her did was the best, having the power hidden deeply, but on the surface, appear willful and ostentatious, practically just handling matters with a low profile, while conducting oneself with a high profile.

Jing Wan sat on his lap, tugging his cheeks. Thats why, being able to start over again, sure enough was like having a cheat code, having all the advantages on all sides, especially given that this mans abilities in itself were already extraordinary. If still unable to win like this, then under the heavens, there probably wont be any winners.

Another few days pa.s.sed. Li Hong Yuan and Jing Wan received news regarding Su Ming Zhang. Based on the time, he shouldve already reached the place of his exile, but the person that arrived wasnt really Su Ming Zhang, but rather someone that looked somewhat similar to Su Ming Zhang. Because the locals have never seen Su Ming Zhang before, even if having a portrait, they still never once doubted in the slightest.

In other words, where Su Ming Zhang got switched out, no one knows? Li Hong Yuan calmly asked.

w.a.n.gye please forgive. They didnt dare to argue, Should we immediately send people to search?

Li Hong Yuan waved his hand, Enough, no need to bother. Since they found someone to replace, then they must have changed his ident.i.ty. With the world this big, where to go look for?

This matter was originally also within expectations. Having severed his path, for someone like Su Ming Zhang, its impossible for him to just remain silent like this. He certainly will think of ways to return. Even if its abandoning his ident.i.ty, he also wont hesitate. Jing Wans expression was similarly indifferent, not caring that much, Just, dont know where he will start from.

Its not like the world is in chaos, the feudal va.s.sals dividing, so naturally theres nothing quicker than rising through the ranks using military achievements. In Qi Yuan, its possible for there to be young generals, but impossible for there to be young cabinet ministers and young first rank high officials. Su Ming Zhang is already thirty some, already unable to continue taking the imperial exam path and slowly climb up step by step. Li Hong Ming also doesnt have the time to wait. After all, Li Hong Ming needs support now. Thats why, judging from the present, the northwest is his only option.

Judging from the present? Could it be that there are other options? Or perhaps other places that will also break out into war?
