"The old land of Wu Kingdom seems to have just begun to collect taxes, right?" Sima Ji looked at Lu Yun jokingly and said, "I do not discriminate against the gentry of Wu and Shu, but as a gentry, you should also understand that the world will not be able to make a fortune. If you want to get something, you will inevitably lose what you want. I am a Legalist. Are you afraid? When you enter Jicheng, you can see the order of the city gate sealing the mountain to attract the gathering of the people?"

"I saw it, but Lu Yun just knew that it was the Mount Closing Order. With the order of Your Highness, the people of Youzhou should not be rash. Such authority is probably the only one in the world." Lu Yun organized the language to compliment, "The orders are prohibited, which makes people look at it."

Haha! Sima Ji seemed to hear some joke, pointing at Lu Yun and couldn't stop talking. Yang Xin, who was thrusting her belly, smiled and said, "Shilong may have thought too much, but his husband has not thought so much. For the sake of livelihood, how could the people of the people go up the mountain to log wood and stop making trouble because of their husband's order?"

"But why did King Yan give up the mountain seal?" Lu Yun was puzzled, not knowing what the King Yan and the princess in front of him meant.

"My husband issued a mountain closure order, and he never made the people dare not go up the mountain. He just wanted to find a reason to collect labor service for the people who dared to go up the mountain. This is the essence of the Legalists." Yang Xin giggled while covering her stomach. After a long time of resolute smile, she said with a sharp face, "Let it go no matter what, but someone breaks the law is another matter. Wu has not paid taxes for 20 years and has been recuperating for a long time. This is also the only thing that the Jiangdong gentry can take out. It is not too much for the husband to want some money and grain support. The Jiangdong gentry is rich, but its status is not something that money can buy."

"Women's opinions, don't blame the dragon. These women always have no thoughts when speaking. Even if they are right, they should be more tactful." Sima Ji said lazily, "The hometown of fish and rice in Jiangdong is full of talented people, and entering the center is also worthy of entering Jiangdong. I respect Jiangdong very much, but I am not the most outstanding among the kings. I also need certain support. Will there be rewards if there is support?"

This is half true and half false. Sima Ji has no good feelings for the gentry. This is overall, and it does not distinguish between the Central Plains gentry or the Jiangdong gentry. On the one hand, it is naturally a good place in Jiangdong. Even if he has chosen Jicheng as the base camp, he still has to admit that it is the richest place, which has been since ancient times.

The economic potential of Jicheng and Jiankang is completely incomparable. As the capital of later generations, the imperial capital mainly controls the geographical advantage of the Northeast and North China Plain. It is not that the capital has a good economic foundation. The Bohai Sea is the inland sea of ​​China. The Liaodong Peninsula in Shandong from the north and south has grabbed the Bohai Sea, which is considered the safest coastal area in China.

The potential of the Yangtze River Estuary is far from comparable to that of the Yellow River Estuary. The population and plains of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are far greater than those around the Bohai Sea. Compared with the Pearl River Estuary in Guangzhou, even the plain area of ​​the Pearl River Estuary in Honghekou cannot be compared with the Yangtze River Estuary. The same is true for the potential. Not to mention the two sides of the Heilongjiang River, both sides of the estuary in the sea are full of mountains.

Where there is a potential that is comparable to the area of ​​the Yangtze River Estuary, there is only the plains around the Lancang River Estuary in Asia. Otherwise, Sima Ji had not even settled the Central Plains and would think about the southern expedition from time to time. The area of ​​the plains in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River can only compete for the plains near the Lancang River. In other words, if the southern expedition is successful, the enemy of the Magic City is not the imperial capital, but Longchuan, the current capital of Funan Kingdom.

"You Jiangdong, except for the establishment of the naval army, seem to have nothing to help me. My Youping naval army is not weak, right?" Sima Ji Xunshun was so tempted, and he was almost crazy to suggest, so why don't you pay money quickly? Buy an official from the King of Yan quickly, otherwise you would still want to be on an equal footing with the Central Plains gentry?

In addition to paying money, Sima Jizhen didn't think that the Jiangdong gentry could help them. In history, the confrontation between the north and the south, once the Central Plains fell, Jiangnan was in a state of hard work. Moreover, the trends of the Eastern Jin, the Southern Song and the Southern Ming were still increasingly unbearable. The Eastern Jin Dynasty could still attack and defend. The Southern Song Dynasty was beaten more and more, and the Southern Ming Dynasty could not even stand it. But in fact, the more time went by, the population of Jiangnan was increasing.

"As long as the King of Yan can treat each other equally, what is money and food? The Jiangdong gentry is willing to follow the leader of the King of Yan." When Lu Yun heard this, this was a problem? The Jiangdong gentry was political status, not money and food. If it could be exchanged, they would not be dragging on the mud.

"I think that Jiang Dongjun, the governor of a state, can take office. As for what happens later, the success will come to heaven." When Sima Ji heard Lu Yun's words, he did not hide his thoughts and offered a offer.

At this stage, it would be great that the Jiangdong gentry could be involved in the governor of a state. Except for the deep-rooted Dow family in Jiaozhou and the people of the Central Plains are really unwilling to go there, it seems that every governor of the other nineteen states is a Central Plains, including Zhanzhou.

This offer is enough for the Jiangdong gentry to flock to them. If the position of governor of a state can be obtained, it is of great significance to the Jiangdong gentry. They have already entered a field that only the Central Plains gentry can enter. At least in terms of grade, equality between the north and the south has been achieved. As for the Tao family in Jiaozhou, it is purely a special situation.

After a long time, Lu Yun heard the sharp and sharp sound of dust outside the hall, which should be a musical instrument, and couldn't help but say in surprise, "What kind of musical instrument is this? The sound it makes is so penetrating."

"Oh, it's time to announce the hour. The sound Shilong heard was an instrument called suona, which was transmitted from my king's Virgin concubine's hometown. At present, except in the Yan Palace and Youzhou Military Camp, I can't hear it anywhere else. I use him as a military call." Sima Ji listened with surprise and confirmed that it was the guard who was reporting the time.

Suona? It was introduced from Persia to the Central Plains through the Western Regions. Sima Ji liked this kind of instrument very much. He even rarely prepared to learn it. He was preparing to play a song on Sima Yong's head and quickly sent the opponent back to the west. After seeing this thing, he suddenly remembered the unique sound of the suona that could not be covered by any instrument, and directly pushed it into the Youzhou military camp. As a training soldier, he was soon elected as the voice that the soldiers in Youzhou were least willing to hear, and lived up to the reputation of the hooligans of the suona instrument.

Lu Yun knew it, it turned out to be a musical instrument of the Hu people. No wonder he had never heard of it before. The King of Yan’s hobbies were really special, but then again, the King of Yan could even accept the Hu people, so it would naturally be no problem for the Jiangdong gentry.

This time, Lu Yun came to Jicheng to Jicheng to find the Feng, which means to surrender, but it won't be so fast. Sima Ji was not in a hurry. He didn't have to help the other party anyway. It was similar to the Jiangdong genius and the Wu. It was just a matter of money and food, and wasn't he still had a little lover Liu Ye.

He continued to farm in the Yan Palace, turned a blind eye to everything outside, and lived a life where people were in the palace but could not find people. From time to time, he took out a decree to show the effect. However, Sima Ji felt more and more embarrassed when these two princesses were in the palace, and Sima Xuanhua and Sima Yannu had no intention of returning to Luoyang at all.

Just kidding, although Sima Xuanhua did not have the methods like Jia Nanfeng, it can be seen that Luoyang is no longer what it was like before. Why bother to go back and live under someone else's roof? Uncle Wang is not good to his sisters, why should he leave?

"You sisters are getting older, have you never got married? You two don't want to marry me, right? This is a good thing. Uncle King does not dare to do anything, but it's not as good as this. In addition, the usurpation of the throne is a few things that Uncle King dares to do. If you like some talent, it's okay to just say it's okay. At worst, I won't kill their whole family in the future." Sima Ji looked helpless and was heartbroken about his niece's marriage.

"Uncle Wang is thinking too much. Our sisters just haven't considered marriage and have no intention of believing in Jackology." Sima Xuanhua also smiled angrily. She was not yet at the age of having to marry, but she also asked with a curiosity, "Is there anyone who chooses Uncle Wang?"

"Why don't know the people among the gentry, I think Wang Dao is pretty good, but the relationship between Wang and Shu Wang should be considered a kind of hatred. I know some leaders of Hu people. I don't need to consider this. Unless you fall in love with him, Shu Wang will never marry you to Hu people." Sima Ji had a very strange thinking. Marrying a woman with Hu people is OK, but this can be considered a marriage. Don't think about marrying a princess, especially a real princess, and he will never do anything about marriage.

But he still said with some regrets, "Actually, Director Wang is a good person. He is two years younger than me. Unfortunately, he has already married. As a princess, you cannot suffer any grievances. Let's talk about it later. You are not very old."

We were having a happy chat, but suddenly Liang Cheng hurried over with a secret letter. It was not the time to come, and we were just in the mood to chat with Sima Ji's dead fish eyes.

"The enemy troops are coming to the city? Are you scared like that?" Sima Ji saw that it was an urgent report from the commander of the Jinwei of Sizhou. He knew that there was a reason, but he still refused to let go and opened the secret letter without idle hands.

Seeing the words above, Sima Ji's face changed instantly. There were only five words on it, and the emperor's grandson died young.

"It's over!" In front of Sima Xuanhua, Sima Ji put the secret letter on the table and muttered.

"Is it the King of Qi who moved the hand?" Sima Xuanhua's face changed, and he asked excitedly, grabbing Sima Ji's sleeve.

"It shouldn't be that the grandson died young. The biggest beneficiary is your sixteenth uncle. The King of Qi will not take action. But the heirs of the Jin Dynasty are gone, and the vassal kings in various places don't know what they think." Sima Ji thought for a while and felt that Sima Ji would not do this. The grandson of the emperor, and the biggest beneficiary is Sima Ying.

Although Sima Jiong represented the Sima Shi lineage, the emperor still had two younger brothers, and he couldn't stand it even if he forced himself to rob. Even if he took action, he had to completely settle Sima Ying and Sima Yi. Wouldn't it be better to do it at that time? I can only say that Sima Jiong was really unlucky. The medical level in ancient times was so low, and people would die if they said they were dead.

Sima Zhao's seven sons were actually Sima Yan and Sima You who lived to adulthood.
