Chapter 2974 Sparks
Lord Tang agreed deeply, and thought of something, and couldn't help but smile, "Changbo went to Jiangnan."
Bai Shan was stunned. "Xiaoxue Brother Yang has been transferred?"
Tang He nodded slightly. "He should still be in Xiazhou now, but when I left the capital, I heard that he had been appointed as the Inspector of Huainan Province."
This transfer was somewhat puzzling, because according to Yang Heshu's own idea, after he made achievements in Xiazhou, he should return to Beijing, or stay in Hedong Road, and still focus on civil governance.
There is no way I can go to Jiangnan.
Tang He also once suspected that the emperor had a brain seizure, cough cough, but the emperor might have a brain seizure, but Wei Zhi and the other officials in the court would not, so he suspected that something was wrong before he set off.
Arriving at the saltworks, he finally understood the emperor's plan. "Your Majesty wants to use the aristocratic family to deal with the aristocratic family."
Bai Shan opened his mouth in surprise. He thought of Minister Liu, Lord Tang, and even Lord Wei, but he never thought that the emperor would use Brother Yang.
He was so shocked that he stopped in his tracks. For some reason, his hands and feet felt cold, and he felt his heart beating faster and faster, almost out of rhythm.
Tang He also stopped and tilted his head slightly to look at him. In the firelight, he could clearly see the changes in his facial expression.
"Are you scared?"
Bai Shan came back to his senses and did not deny it. He said with some difficulty: "Jiangnan... is too dangerous."
Tang He also sighed, and after a long pause, he said, "Yes, but His Majesty must have asked him before issuing the decree. Since he agreed, it means he has confidence. At least he thinks it's worth doing."
Bai Shan pursed his lips tightly, with a thousand thoughts in his mind, but in the end they were all suppressed. He opened his mouth to say something, but didn't know where to start.
Bursts of laughter came from the front. Bai Shan turned his head and saw several figures walking towards them. He could also hear Zhou Man's affirmative voice, "Bai Shan!"
Then came Bai Jilang's voice, "Don't shout, it's not certain yet. Can you see clearly from such a distance?"
"He's holding a torch."
"That doesn't have to be Bai Shan, I just saw two heads!"
"It's obviously three! I haven't seen you for a few months and your eyesight is already so bad."
Mingda tried to smooth things over, "Stop arguing, we're almost there, we'll know who it is once we get closer."
Yin Huo: "Watch your step."
Bai Shan's heart immediately calmed down, his back straightened a little, and his eyes became firm. Since Brother Yang went to Jiangnan, he would do his best to achieve his goal.
They had already taken a step forward, the road behind them was blocked, and there was a bottomless abyss at their feet. They could only move forward.
Even if some of them fall and get smashed to pieces, they have no choice but to keep moving forward.
Bai Shan closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he looked completely different. He turned to Tang He and said, "Don't worry, Brother Tang, I know what to do."
Tang He looked at Bai Shan in surprise, as he had changed so much in just a moment. Seeing him holding a torch and walking towards the figures, he thought for a moment, smiled with relief, and followed them.
Zhou Man saw Bai Shan holding the torch and laughed out loud, "Well, I told you it was Bai Shan, but you didn't believe me!"
She was proud and justified. She had never asked Koko before, and Koko had not told her that the person in front was Bai Shan. She had seen it all on her own.
Bai Erlang snorted softly, not wanting to pay any attention to the proud Zhou Man.
Bai Shan smiled and extended the torch in front of them so that they could see the road more clearly. "Why are you coming back now?"
Zhou Man: "It's their first time seeing the sea!"
They were just like Bai Shanzhouman when he saw the sea for the first time. When they looked at the endless sea, they didn't want to move. They just looked around as if they could look at it all day long.
The sea seems not to change, but in fact it is always changing, and every moment is different.
The setting sun was right on the top of the mountain at that time, but the rosy glow in the sky did not affect the sea at all. It remained the same as it should be. A seagull flew over the sea and called out with reluctance. Even though Zhou Man had seen the sea more than once, he could not help but raise his head to chase it, with tears in his eyes.
It was too late to see this. By the time they came to their senses, time had passed so quickly and it was already dark. They could only walk back carefully.
Back at the house where they were staying, soldiers came to bring them food.
In fact, there are no very good dishes, only steamed buns and two dishes, one of which is completely vegetarian.
They came suddenly and the salt field was not prepared. The chicken in the dish was bought by Zhou Liwei from the village on the spur of the moment, and someone had it chopped into small pieces and cooked.
There were few dishes, and they were not delicious, but even the spoiled Mingda ate them with gusto and felt particularly happy today.
She said to Zhou Man, "I'm going to the beach tomorrow."
Zhou Man nodded and said, "Go ahead. I can also take you to Xiaowa Village. I treated the villagers there last time, so this time is a good time for a follow-up visit. They have a lot of salted fish drying in the sun, and some villagers go fishing at sea. There are many fish there that we have never heard of."
Mingda exclaimed, "Then how do they know it's edible?"
Zhou Man said: "Of course it was passed down orally from our ancestors. Anyway, we have never eaten poisonous fish."
Mingda expressed great interest.
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms. Yin Huo shared a room with Lord Tang. Seeing that Lord Tang seemed unable to sleep, he asked, "Is it difficult to check the salt tax in Jiangnan?"
As expected, talking to smart people saves effort. How many steps are saved? Tang He sighed inwardly and said, "It will kill me."
Yin Huo lay in the darkness. After hearing this, he was silent for a moment and then said, "Everyone must die. Only if their death is worthwhile, their life on earth will not be in vain."
Tang He thought about Yin Huo's situation and felt that this topic should not be too in-depth, otherwise what if it would bring out the person's worries?
Zhou Man mentioned that Yin Huo’s health was so poor before. Firstly, his physical condition was indeed very poor, and secondly, his mental illness made his health worse and worse.
So he changed the subject and asked, "Master Yin, you've seen the grassland, and now you've seen the sea. Which do you think is more beautiful, the grassland or the sea?"
Yin Huo said, "They are different."
He paused and said, "When I'm on the grassland, looking at the vast expanse of the prairie, I feel refreshed and open-minded; but when I stand by the sea, looking at the endless ocean, I intuitively feel that the world has changed so much that humans are as insignificant as a grain of sand in the ocean."
The topic seemed to be pulled back by Yin Huo. Although the other party's voice was calm, Tang He still had a headache. He didn't mind talking to Bai Shanzhou about the vicissitudes of life and the impermanence of life and death, but he didn't dare to talk about these with Yin Huo.
In the next room, Manbao washed up and sat cross-legged on the bed. He asked Bai Shan in a low voice, "So, Your Majesty wants Brother Yang to clean up the Jiangnan family?"
Bai Shan didn't dare to speak too loudly, after all, Governor Guo lived in the next house, so he just nodded.
Zhou Man also frowned in worry, "Why did you choose Brother Yang?" He felt a little nervous.
See you tomorrow
