Chapter 172 There are always follow-up
The new emperor ascended the throne and issued a general amnesty.
All those who have made contributions will be rewarded, but the person who deserves the reward the most cannot be found.
When Feng Aoqing captured Lianzhou and killed Duan Ya, Mo Beiyuan soon received the news.
His hands were shaking as he held the letter, and he could no longer speak. He simply closed the door of the study and locked the three prime ministers and six ministers outside.
She single-handedly gathered the armies of Qizhou and Sizhou to fight against Duan Ya's three armies. Among them, the Sizhou army had already defected, but she also brought them back.
I only heard from the reporter that his military strategy was so great that he seemed to have divine help and defeated the three armies without fighting a few battles.
After capturing the three armies, not only were they not killed, but they were rewarded. Officials from the three places who were willing to stay were also promised not to be held accountable and all of them were retained.
Many people said that the first time they saw a battle, it was a joyful scene.
She also killed Duan Ya with her own hands.
Mo Beiyuan always wanted to stand behind Feng Aoqing, but he didn't know that Feng Aoqing was the one who supported him.
Without her, these states would have been lost.
After Duan Ya ran away, he had already thought about giving up these states.
Now, Feng Aoqing defended these states for him and Mo Nanzhou at a very small cost.
Then, Mo Haoyu met Mo Nanzhou halfway and escorted him back to Beijing.
All the gifts have been prepared, just waiting for him to come, everything will go very smoothly.
It was not until the ceremony that the two brothers actually sat together and talked about these things.
Just because Xingbao said "the two people have different bones", Feng Aoqing had already guessed Mo Nanzhou's identity.
Feng Aoqing negotiated with Qizhou and Sizhou under his name, and exchanged an alliance for what they wanted.
As soon as this happened, many important officials raised objections, thinking that her private alliance with the two states and making such a major promise was a capital crime.
This time, Mo Beiyuan firmly stood on her side.
Any minister who brought up this matter would either nod in support and leave, or take off his official uniform and leave.
Although he also found it a little difficult to accept, he believed Feng Aoqing and believed that she must have her reasons for doing so.
When Mo Nanzhou mentioned this, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, brother. Sister-in-law has arranged everything. Things are not as bad as you think."
Mo Beiyuan looked at him eagerly, waiting for an answer.
She agreed to hand over the Liansheng Iron Mine to Zhai Mingxu, the governor of Sizhou, for management, as if she was handing over a national treasure to someone else's hands. But in fact, several generations of the Zhai family had been the managers of the iron mine. It was Duan Ya who drove the Zhai family to Sizhou and replaced them with her own people in order to keep control of the iron mine.
This is the Zhai family's ancestral property and reputation.
Moreover, Feng Aoqing has discovered a new and better iron ore mine in Qizhou. He will wait until Zhaojing stabilizes before mining to prevent the Zhai family from dominating the market.
"Iron ore can actually be found on the road to exile?!" Mo Beiyuan felt a pain in his heart. It was already hard enough to walk all the way and avoid being hunted down, and now he could find iron ore!
"Yes, it can be considered a blessing in disguise." Mo Nanzhou nodded.
"Then how do you know it's better than Lian Sheng's?" Mo Beiyuan asked again.
"Lord Han has taken a look and blew up the cave entrance. However, my sister-in-law has already given me the map."
"How many things has she done?"
“Too many.”
Mo Nanzhou talked about the matter of conferring the title of king again. Everyone knew that the Wei family of Qizhou had already dominated the country and did not take the capital seriously. Now they wanted to confer the title of a county prince and treat him according to the regulations of a county prince with the national surname. I am afraid that he will become even more arrogant and lawless.
"So, what's next for her?"
"Brother, you're smart. My sister-in-law said that Wei Changbao is already seriously ill. Although he hasn't noticed yet, he definitely won't live for more than a year. His son, Wei Qianheng, is completely different from his father. Wei Qianheng grew up under the guidance of my senior brother. He's intelligent, humble, kind, and capable of governing a region."
Feng Aoqing had never met Wei Changbao, but because she had saved Fu Qiuming, the filial Wei Qianheng told Feng Aoqing about his father's illness and asked for a prescription. The illness didn't sound serious, but Feng Aoqing had a rough idea of it.
After saving Han Lang, she went to see him again and confirmed the symptoms. She and Fu Qiuming had originally planned to have Fu Qiuming kill Wei Changbao, but that was obviously not necessary.
Mo Beiyuan smiled: "She thought that even if Wei Changbao died, he wouldn't be able to make waves even if he became the emperor, right? Fortunately, Wei Changbao has a good son."
Mo Beiyuan breathed a sigh of relief at this moment: "I'll send a boat to pick her up. If I send her to Yanzhou, she'll think too much and think I'm going to get rid of her."
"Yeah, I think so too. The family has just arrived in Yanzhou, so let's take a rest and stay for a while before coming back. It will also be good for you two to be alone together for a while." Mo Nanzhou looked at Mo Beiyuan meaningfully.
"If you can come back, then thank God, and we can think of other things later." Mo Beiyuan felt a little nervous at the thought of meeting again.
I wonder if Feng Aoqing's behavior this time was partly because she had him in her heart, and his dead heart was stirred again.
If she is willing to come back, he is willing to pay any price.
"Brother, there is one more thing... Mother and sister passed away on the road." Mo Nanzhou did not write to Mo Beiyuan about this matter, as he wanted to tell him in person.
Mo Beiyuan was stunned: "Is it... Ao Qing... who did it?"
"Oh, no, absolutely not. She had already left that night and left me a letter."
Mo Nanzhou briefly told him what happened at that time, but did not mention his grandmother. He only said that she committed suicide.
"Maybe he gave her too much medicine and killed Shuyuan. He felt guilty about it and thought life was hard and hopeless, so he followed her." Mo Nanzhou thought of the most reasonable explanation and gave it to Mo Beiyuan.
"I understand. I'll send someone to repair the grave." Mo Beiyuan nodded and believed it.
Mo Beiyuan walked out of the study in the main hall and looked at the long steps in front of him. He suddenly remembered his first meeting with Feng Aoqing.
She was alone at the time and forced the princess to go into the palace to rescue him. She also treated his injuries on the spot and then took him back to the palace.
At that time, he still thought she was the original Feng Aoqing, and looked at her with disgust. She must have been very sad.
She said at the time that he was worthy of everyone except Feng Aoqing and Jing Tao. She was wrong, and he was also unworthy of her, Feng Aoqing.
Mo Beiyuan was a little dazed and walked back to Hongyi Hall.
Hongyi Hall is the hall closest to the main hall. He has been living in the palace these days because he has too many things to deal with.
In any case, he began to look forward to seeing Feng Aoqing again.
This time, he would never abandon her again, no matter what the situation was, even if she was already strong enough to no longer need him.
However, he soon received a letter from the official who was taking office in Lianzhou.
Just as he expected, Feng Aoqing left after explaining everything and did not board the boat that was supposed to pick her up.
Moreover, she only took one person with her, and like a drop of rain falling into a river, she quickly disappeared without a trace.
Mo Beiyuan was in despair again.
He lost contact with Feng Aoqing.
