Chapter 147 Identity

In the afternoon, Xuzhou Hanshan South City was bustling as always

Emperor Xiao Xun, who returned to Huaiyin from Kaifeng, passed by Hanshan, Xuzhou, and stayed here to reward the soldiers who returned from the expedition to Hebei, so Hanshan City was extremely crowded and lively.

The rewards were actually distributed by the Xuzhou government, and most of them were in the form of "exchange coupons", so the outsiders were overcrowded in the military camps.

This surprised the emperor Xiao Xun, who was inspecting the military camp: "What are these people? How dare they encircle the gates of the military camp, and the soldiers ignored it?"

The Grand Marshal Li Li, who accompanied the inspection, replied: "This is a vendor who purchases redemption coupons at a high price. Every time the military camp issues redemption coupons, they will hear the news and buy redemption coupons from the soldiers."

Xiao Xun became more and more surprised: "Can this exchange coupon be used as money?"

Li Li replied: "No, this is just a game."

"Game?" Xiao Xun looked at Li Li in confusion.

"It's a game." After Li Li said that, he briefly introduced the situation of "beating the drum and passing the flowers", and Xiao Xun understood it.

Exchange vouchers are not money, they are just credit vouchers. People believe that this voucher can be exchanged for some intimate goods, so this voucher is valuable.

Therefore, the exchange coupons issued by the government must have sufficient materials and a limited exchange period.

Once people know that the government is overly "overissued", the credit of the exchange coupon will disappear instantly and turn into waste paper.

It's impossible to use it as money.

The reason why the reason why the supplies are not directly distributed is that the game of passing the flowers is playing lively. The soldiers get the "game prop" of the exchange coupon, which is more beneficial than getting the supplies directly.

Xiao Xun's attention turned back to the camp. The government troops who attacked Hebei at the end of last autumn included the Xuzhou army, some government soldiers, and the recruited heroes of the two Huaihe Rivers.

They fought alone on the north bank of the Yellow River, dragging the main force of the Qi army to Hebei for several months, and gaining valuable time for the official army to recover Henan.

Therefore, it should be rewarded.

Those who have made meritorious service must be promoted, and the best of them must be selected as the imperial guards to enrich the central army.

Not only that, the soldiers and soldiers who performed well during the Northern Expedition were rewarded. The team took turns to enter Huaiyin to guard the guards, becoming the war soldiers directly under the central government and becoming part of the central army.

As he thought about it, Xiao Xun was happy. Henan had recovered and after several years of operation, he could rely on Henan, the large population and grain output of the Lianghuai River to support the next Northern Expedition.

The next Northern Expedition is Hebei.

Hebei has a fertile land and a dense population, making it the best in the world. As long as Hebei is won, the whole world will be unified.

Xiao Xun thought about the great country, and soon thought of the beauty again.

After careful investigation of the identity of the Zheng clan, the identity of the Zheng clan who was rescued by the official army was not yet able to be directly identified: because Qi State was demoted to official positions, among the Zheng clans in Xingyang, some people knew that Zheng Yun had a daughter, but they had never seen her, so it was not possible to verify it for the time being.

But it is impossible to prove that the other party's identity is fake. The eunuch asked carefully. Zheng explained his situation clearly. Judging from his words and behaviors, such as dining and daily life, he did have the style of a noble family.

so...

So Xiao Xun thought that the other party's identity was fine, and he couldn't see the other party's appearance with his own eyes, but after the eunuch description, Zheng did have outstanding appearance.

But the most important thing is the origin. The other party comes from the Zheng family in Xingyang. Whether it is the original family or the foreign family, they are all first-class families, no less than the king and Xie Gao family.

As the Emperor, he naturally had to have such a noble status accompany him.

However, in order not to lose his etiquette, the Grand Sima suggested that he wait for someone to arrive in Huaiyin and let the Empress Dowager see it, so that the Empress Dowager could make the decision.

That's good, it's just a few more days to wait.

Xiao Xun thought that in the near future, Zheng, who was born in a noble family, would become his pillow. He was excited and subconsciously looked up at the sky.

The weather was gloomy, but in Xiao Xun's eyes, it was like cloudless and sunny.

When Li Li saw the emperor looking up at the sky, he knew that the person's attention was no longer on the exchange coupon, so he stopped talking.

The game of redemption voucher redemption has become larger and larger, and more and more merchants are participating. Therefore, the issuance of redemption vouchers has increased by more than ten times compared to when he left his job.

The background is Xuzhou's increasingly prosperous industry and commerce development, and Xuzhou's industry and commerce development momentum has been taken to a higher level with the general trend of the imperial court recapturing the Qingzhou area.

Now, Henan Province, if it wants to implement large-scale military farming in garrisons to control local areas, it requires a large amount of material support, which has brought the development of Xuzhou's industry and commerce to a new level.

Industry and businessmen are full of confidence in the future, so the credit of redemption coupons is very strong, which naturally attracts more people to pursue.

Thanks to the rapid development of industry and commerce, the population gathered in Hanshan, Xuzhou has exceeded 300,000 households, exceeding Jiankang.

In terms of permanent population, Hanshan has become the largest city in Liang Kingdom and at the same time, it has become the industrial and commercial center of the Lianghuai region. The resulting interest groups have covered the Lianghuai region.

While Li Li assisted the court in regaining Qingzhou, Henan Province, he also opened up two huge "markets" for Xuzhou's industry and commerce (the interest group of the two Huaihe Rivers).

Once you have a wallet, you have a path to your career.

The military system of the government and the active northern expedition gave the children of the Han tribe in the two Huai Rivers a new way to join the army, make contributions in wars, and become officials based on military merits, and be promoted.

These cold people who were rejected by the Nine-rank Zhongzheng system have truly had a passage for officials to climb upwards, even if the passage is still relatively narrow and difficult to walk.

But the premise of everything is military victory, otherwise everything will be empty.

Li Li looked at the emperor and then looked at the soldiers coming and going in the camp.

There is no doubt that the person who can ensure the victory of the Northern Expedition military is not the name commander, but...

......

In a corner of Hanshan City, in an official office that is the palace, Zu Qi slowly walked under the corridor and came to Li Li.

Li Li has been waiting here, just waiting for Zu Yi's reply.

"How, can you recognize it?"

"The king and the lord cannot recognize him."

"Didn't you say that you had met before?" Li Li felt a little disappointed. He really wanted to find out the identity of Zheng just in case.

So I made some arrangements and asked Zu Yi to secretly identify one or two.

Zu Yi looked embarrassed: "June, back then, the lower officials happened to meet Zheng Yun and his family on their way, and then they met his daughter."

"That happened several years ago. His daughter is still young. Now, after a few years, she has grown up and is difficult to identify."

"The officials don't know the affairs of the Zheng family, so they can't ask about the Chou Yan Mao."

Since this was the case, Li Li had to give up. Zu Qi reminded: "June, please remind the empress dowager that the identity of this woman cannot be verified for the time being."

"This is natural, so the queen will take the initiative. I won't care too much." Li Li nodded, turned around and left, and Zu Qi followed behind.

Li Li carefully investigated the "original origin" of Zheng's family and asked many "parties", including refugees who fled with their servants when Zheng was rescued, as well as the discovery of Zheng's party's official soldiers.

He had a rough understanding of the entire process and even various details, but could not see any problems. As for the other party's identity, it was temporarily unavailable.

Li Li was not interested in knowing how this woman looked.

For details, he will inform the Queen Mother that as for how the Queen Mother will decide, it is not his business.

The emperor happily accepted Zheng as his concubine. If this woman's identity is true, of course it would be good; if the identity is false, the emperor's resentment will not be exposed to him.

Li Li thought while walking, Zu Qi followed behind, looking at Li Li's back, and suddenly the corner of his mouth curled slightly.

He was sure that the one just now was not Zheng Yun's daughter at all.

Zu Yi has read countless girls and has first-class skills in identifying people. He pays great attention to the characteristics of the other person's appearance, such as where there are moles, etc.

Even though he really only glanced at Zheng Yun's daughter back then, he could still recognize the woman who was a few years later, not the girl he was back then.

Then the question is: if someone wants to send his daughter to the emperor and be favored, and then his family will be promoted to heaven, there is no reason to take this risk and pretend to be a daughter of a noble family.

Therefore, this woman or the people around her are very dangerous.

Considering the fact that the other party pretended to be the Zheng family of Xingyang, Zu Yi judged that this danger was not aimed at Li Li, but...

So, why should I expose it?
