Xiao Changqi stroked the account book and finally returned it to her, "Your husband really doesn't lack money. However, this kind of intention has been received."

"Don't really want it?" Ye Qingyan looked at him.

Xiao Changqi nodded, "Yes."

"If this is the case, I will use these money to build bridges and roads, and build a clinic and academies."

"Great kindness! If there is not enough money, you can find me." Xiao Changqi said with a smile.

Ye Qingyan yawned, "It's so boring. I came to show you specially, but I was rejected. I was very unhappy."

"It's getting late, let's take a break." Xiao Changqi hugged her and turned into the inner room behind the study.

Soon, the whispers of making the moon hazy clouds and the crabapple shyly in the buds sounded...

...

Xiao Changqi quietly got up the couch after Ye Qingyan was asleep.

After tucking the corners of her quilt, she put the soles of her feet to ensure that it was warm, she put on a black cloak and went out.

It was pitch black outside, and the lanterns under the corridor emitted orange light, not cold, and even the air was filled with the germination of all things. Spring in Jizhou came late, and after the New Year in the capital, the willows and orioles bloomed in spring. In Jizhou, it will take April before red and green.

His woman also had been frozen for a winter... When Ye Qingyan first came to Jizhou, she was like a quail every day, trembling, and felt a pain in her heart. Although she finally adapted to the climate here, she still had to use soup to sleep.

Wait for one more winter at most! He will never let her stay here for a long time.

Zhu Hai hurried into the yard.

"Prince, King Xidi dies and the prince ascends the throne."

"Well, Prince Xidi Helianba has always been eyeing Yan Chao, and this year is probably not good."

"Jizhou has not been in war for many years, and the court has been negligent about this side. Now that Jizhou has become your fiefdom, the only 800 border guards left have been transferred back to the capital. Now Jizhou is an unlocked gate. If Xidi attacks, you can only rely on the prince's three hundred personal guards to resist. At that time, Jizhou..."

"Maybe it will become the next Fengzhou!" A hint of hatred flashed in Xiao Changqi's black and dirty phoenix eyes!

In the 19th year of Jingde, Xiao Changqi was sixteen years old. Because he kicked the queen mother's nephew into the Imperial Garden Lake at the Qianqiu Banquet of the Empress Dowager and was stunned. In a fit of anger, Emperor Jingde sent Xiao Changqi to Fengzhou, a border city far away from the capital as a prefect. Because the previous Fengzhou magistrate died suddenly, he had not sent a new prefect to pass by.

Fengzhou borders the Jin Dynasty, and the area is not large. Most of the people are pawn vendors. They rely on selling goods between the two countries to make ends meet. They also have to face the Jin border at all times. The savage bandits are disturbed by the people and their lives are in vain.

When Xiao Changqi took office, the situation in the Yan Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom was turbulent. Fengzhou was on the border, and the people were in a panic all day long. The streets in the city were depressed, and the people tried not to go out. At night, they closed the door early, and the whole Fengzhou seemed like an empty city.

When he first arrived in Fengzhou, Xiao Changqi was too lazy to pay attention to Fengzhou affairs and slept in the government office every day. Until one day, someone beats the drum and complains about the wrong. The drum and complains about the wrong is not so easy to beat. Anyone who beats the drum, no matter whether it is right or wrong, will first come to the hall to show punishment. Because once the drum is beaten, there will inevitably be adults sitting in the hall. No matter what the adults are doing, they will give priority to handling the cases of the drum and complaining about the wrong. However, there are also some trivial matters that beat the drum and complaining about the wrong, which makes the adults in the hall unlucky, so there is a rule that if the drum is beaten, the drum and the drum will be beat first. And these thirty boards have poor physical constitution and can directly remove half of their lives. So if there is not a big injustice, no one will come to complain about the wrong.

The drum of grievances sounded, and Xiao Changqi could only sit in the hall according to the rules. However, he did not expect that he was a weak scholar in white, named Ren Ran. The person he told was neither someone else nor Xiao Changqi. Because he was in his position and did not do anything, he listed a bunch of crimes that were difficult to write about.

Xiao Changqi was also quite unfair, he just did nothing. But it cannot be denied that inaction is also a crime, but it is not too difficult to write.

After suing Xiao Changqi, all the yamen in the court decided that he would die a good death. Because Xiao Changqi was not only the acting prefect of Fengzhou, but also the current ninth prince and the master of the Tian family. You are a commoner and a commoner who sued the master, aren't you just seeking death?

But Xiao Changqi did not punish him, and he was exempted from his drum beat, leaving him as the chief clerk in the government office.

Afterwards, Xiao Changqi did a lot of things with his unremitting advice. He opened warehouses and released grain, added relief halls, and greatly reduced taxes to vendors. He also visited a series of policies from the public. Three or five months later, the appearance of Fengzhou changed, and many people who had left their hometowns returned to Fengzhou.

On the first day of the November when Xiao Changqi was appointed as the acting prefect of Fengzhou, the city of Fengzhou was as quiet as usual, and there were a few barking dogs and crying in babies. The soldiers patrolling the city walls walked back and forth to protect the city.

However, late at night, suddenly the flames surged into the sky, and a large number of Jin soldiers rushed into the city, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil. The people shouted in horror throughout the entire city. All the guards in Fengzhou City came out to fight the Jin army in blood, and almost wiped out the entire army. The Jin army then roared the drums and retreated. Fengzhou City was temporarily preserved, but most of it had been slaughtered.

Xiao Changqi stood on the city wall, commanding the city guards to fight the enemy, witnessing how Fengzhou City was captured by the Jin army and how it was destroyed under the enemy's iron hooves. After nearly a year of hard work, he worked hard to control it, and lost it under the iron hooves of the Jin army. The cold wind was bleak, and the flames reflected on his young and handsome face, and the black hair was floating behind him, and the bloody aura spread out, completely covering him.

At this point, he completely understood that in border towns, the power of war is more important than any economic governance.

The one who motivated him by beating drums and making injustice was standing under the city, surrounded by bloody limbs, including soldiers from Jin, guards from the city, and the people and children... His white clothes were covered with blood, and he looked up at Xiao Changqi standing on the city wall, with his eyes burning and intimidating!

...

Ye Qingyan was wearing a plain skirt, light blue, wide sleeves and long swings, without any accessories. Her slender fingers held the brush and pointed a red plum blossom on the rice paper. The twisted ink-colored plum branches, the bright red plum blossoms and the pure white paper formed a sharp contrast, and it seemed that a faint fragrance spread.

"Jiaojiao's paintings are very good." A clear and soft voice sounded in her ears, with a faint smile, "I have never seen you painted them before."
