The two sons of the law family, one of them was happy when he talked about dancing and writing, and the other was talking about strange stones, and no one was doing what an heir of the palace should do, which was very unreasonable.

Feng Annian is the second, his legs are disabled, and it is not his turn to inherit the family business, but this seventeen-year-old Feng Zichen still cares about strange stones like this, Feng Ge is a little uneasy in his heart.

In the harems of various countries, in order to compete for favor, it is not that there have been no deaths, or poisoning or abortion, and pushing into the water. In addition to those who are bent on flying on the branches, there are naturally those who are afraid of death and just want to save their lives.

Those concubines who want to save their lives usually use a trick to "hide clumsy", and their beauty will naturally not be deliberately damaged, but they will not show it in front of everyone, or pretend to be sick or pretend to be stupid.

However, Feng Zichen is obviously the eldest son of King Law, who is he pretending to be stupid?

Feng Ge was very puzzled, but he couldn't say anything, so he had to smile and nod there, following his words.

Regarding the topic of stones, Feng Zichen had been talking alone for a long, long time, Feng Ge looked at his chattering mouth, and forcibly resisted the desire to yawn, thinking to himself why didn't he feel tired?

When she was drowsy but forced to listen to him, suddenly Feng Zichen's words were like a piece of winter ice piercing Feng Ge's brain, which made her wake up immediately.

"Like this red rouge stone, only in the Rouge Mountain in the hinterland of Beiyan, it is a precious dye specially used by the Beiyan royal family to dye wedding dresses, those barbarians who don't know the goods, such a beautiful stone just broke the dyed cloth, it's really a waste of things. ”

Feng Ge asked quietly, "Can only be used by the royal family?"

"Who said it wasn't, if it weren't for Gui Dexing from Beixuanying, I wouldn't have known that there was such a beautiful red in the world, you see, this red is faintly shining with golden light, is it as magnificent as the sunset after sunset?" Feng Zichen was full of interest, pinched the stone with his index finger and thumb, and watched the dazzling sunlight outside the window: "The more you look at it, the more beautiful it becomes." ”

Gui Dexing, how can he get the things of the Beiyan royal family?

It seems that there is a lot of information about this matter, and it needs to be investigated.

Feng Ge was thinking about how to check, when he heard the voice of the servant at the door: "Yu Shizi, the second son is here." ”

"Second brother is here? Feng Zichen happily watched Feng Annian being pushed in by the servants, "This day is so big, why is the second brother still running so far away, if you want to find Miss Ge, send someone to pick it up, why do you have to go in person?"

Feng Annian smiled and said: "Call someone to pick up Xuanji's talented girl, isn't it a beautiful woman, my father always says that if you recruit talents, you must do it yourself, King Wen of Zhou also pulled Jiang Taigong 800 steps, how dare the younger brother not come?"

Hearing this, Feng Zichen didn't seem to have a too strong reaction, but Feng Ge heard Feng Annian's words, this is a naked provocation 、、、, doesn't this mean that Feng Zichen just sent a servant to pick it up, instead of picking it up in person?

The brotherhood between these two cousins doesn't seem to be very deep.

"The eldest brother has been chatting with the talented girl for so long, and the younger brother still has a few books to ask her for advice here, eldest brother, can you give Miss Ge's time to the younger brother?" Feng Annian looked at Feng Zichen with a smile.

Feng Zichen said with a smile: "The second brother is too anxious, why rush to leave, I have prepared delicious food and wine in the kitchen here, the second brother just came out of his father's place, presumably he didn't eat either, why don't you eat before leaving?"

"Since the elder brother has a life, the younger brother doesn't dare to disobey, so it's bothering. Feng Annian's face was smiling, but his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and he was reluctant to think about it.

The dishes are very rich, in addition to chicken, duck and fish, there are also the freshest river saury, as well as the complex soup and heart-changing eggs, the crystal clear appearance of the white dragon cool crush, and the snowflake cake that breaks when touched.

The saury is spiny, and if it is constantly "poofing" and spitting out the thorns when eating, it is really ugly. Feng Ge didn't want to clip it at all, but Feng Annian suddenly said: "Hey, isn't this the saury fish that the old He family just sent by the river? This fish is the most tender and fat, the meat is extremely smooth, and it is truly a delicacy in the world." Eat it while it's hot, it's fishy when it's cold, but it's a pity that this is a great delicacy. ”

As soon as Feng Zichen's words fell, a maid stepped forward and placed a piece of swordfish in the bowl in front of Feng Ge, and Feng Annian looked at her expectantly.

If you don't eat it, it seems too faceless.

Feng Ge glanced at the knifefish and said with a smile: "The fish is good, but the chopsticks are not easy to use, I wonder if there are any finer chopsticks?"

"Come on, quickly change a pair of chopsticks for Miss Ge. ”

A pair of ebony chopsticks soon rested in Feng Ge's hand, the tip of the chopsticks was pointed and thin, and the other end was hollowed out and carved with grapes, melons, peaches and other fruits from the Western Regions, with fine carving.

Feng Ge changed the chopsticks, used the chopsticks to remove the fish bones little by little, the movements were smooth and elegant, as if carving the most exquisite handicrafts in the world, and then put the whole piece of fish meat into her mouth, tasted it carefully, and after swallowing, she nodded and praised: "Yes, sure enough, the meat is delicate, and it melts in your mouth." ”

At the dinner table, Feng Ge didn't speak, just quietly observed the two, Confucianism pays attention to food without saying a word, sleeping without speaking, although these two people do not have the appearance of a prince of the palace, the etiquette at the dinner table is not bad at all, even the sound of chewing is very small, there are six rings around it, it is also quiet, more honest than the puppet puppet made by Lin Xiangyu, only when they need to serve soup, they will come up silently, and after it is served, they will return to their original position silently.

After the meal, the rules for rinsing the mouth with tea and washing hands with clean water are also a lot, fortunately it is the same in the palace, otherwise it would be a joke to drink the tea used for gargling in one gulp.

"The girl is really worthy of being a talented woman, her manners are elegant, and she is more cultivated than some aristocratic ladies. Feng Zichen praised from the bottom of his heart.

Feng Ge smiled slightly: "The prince of the world praised it." ”

Although his face was relaxed, he secretly thought to himself in his heart: "I said how could there be these dishes on the table, it turned out that I deliberately wanted to test me." ”

When eating, you can best see a person's family education and cultivation, and you can also see the person's daily living environment, Feng Ge's gestures are full of everyone's demeanor, the daughter of the nouveau riche, the woman of the mountain village, there will never be such a table manners as her.

"The saury is sent every year, there are many spines, and it is small, I have never eaten it since I was a child, but I didn't expect the girl to be completely bothered by fish bones, I really admire and admire. Feng Zichen said with a smile.

"Big brother is too anxious, such elegant things have to be tasted slowly to get their taste. Feng Annian looked at the eldest brother with a smile.

After the meal, Feng Annian was about to say goodbye, and Feng Zichen couldn't stay any longer, so he personally sent it to the gate of the courtyard before going back.

In the bamboo cultivation courtyard, Feng Annian couldn't wait to take out his own: "I feel dissatisfied with this book, but I don't know how to change it, and I ask the girl for advice." ”

Feng Ge read it at a glance and ten lines, and said a few obvious shortcomings, Feng Annian was overjoyed: "The girl reads so fast, and can point out the lack of articles in one sentence, if she can become an official, it is really a blessing for the community." ”

"The prince's talent is only enough to be an official? Feng Ge secretly complained in his heart, but he still had to be modest: "Where is it, since the second son once said that the little girl is a talented woman, although it is an emergency word, the little woman can't let people say that the second son doesn't know anyone and was deceived by a liar." ”

"Hahaha, the girl laughed. Feng Annian said with a smile.

Although I really want to inquire about the relationship between the two brothers, but now that I am in a hurry, it is better to think about it slowly, so as not to startle the snake.

After gossiping again, Feng Ge got up and said goodbye, and when he walked through the verandah, he saw from a distance that several people were walking out with one person in a circle, although he couldn't see his face clearly, but the dark blue and gold-inlaid python suit, except for the King of Law, no second person in this mansion dared to wear it.

But don't let him bump into him, Feng Ge hid his figure behind the Taihu Lake Stone in the garden, and wanted to wait for King Lu to pass by, and then go over by himself.

King Law is coming in this direction, but fortunately, there are not so many holes in this Taihu Lake stone, and it can still hide people. Feng Ge was in the stone cave, and he didn't even dare to come out, for fear of being discovered, whether he was recognized as an identity, or treated as a thief, or the daughter of the prince of the palace in private, it was a very bad thing.

"How many days will there be enough grain and grass in Beixuanying?" King Law's majestic voice came into Feng Ge's ears, "How much is left from the last time?"

The staff next to him said a number.

"It's not enough, soon there will be 5,000 people to fill in the past, and the household department has not yet completed the approval, but I am afraid that I will wait for the household department to ask for an order, and then transfer it to the military department for approval, these 5,000 people have already starved to death, and find a way to transfer some more." ”

A staff member replied: "But my lord, the flour from the last time has already exhausted the people's strength within a radius of 20 miles from Feng County, and if the grain is levied again, I am afraid that it will have a great impact on the people's livelihood." ”

If you can't guarantee the food and clothing of the soldiers, how can the soldiers ensure the security of the country? ”

King Li's order could not be refuted, he strode forward, not giving his staff any chance to raise objections, Feng Ge saw through the gap in the Taihu Lake Stone and saw the staff behind him with a look of distress.

If it was in wartime, Feng Ge would also agree to do this, but now that he has pressed people so hard, I am afraid that it will cause people's minds to change.

King Law trained his staff all the way, all the way to the back of the courtyard, no one found Feng Ge hidden in the Taihu Stone Rockery, when the figures of those people were far away, and they couldn't hear them talking, Feng Ge came out of the rockery and let out a long breath.

Judging from King Law's speech and behavior, he shouldn't have raised children like Feng Zichen and Feng Annian anyway, could it be that those two boys are really pretending to be stupid?

Feng Ge pondered, who were they pretending to be, were they being ordered to pretend to be for themselves, or were they pretending to be for each other?

It's just that, such a complicated matter, I can't think about it clearly for a while, it's better to go back early and find a way to inquire about Gui Dexing and his people.

The general of the border pass, no matter how high the position is, for Feng Ge, who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, is just a nobody, speaking of the generals of the Great Heng Kingdom, Feng Ge only remembers a unicorn general Liu Jiyi, that is a person who is still accompanied by countless notorieties after death.

Back at the county office, Lin Xiangyu was sitting in the study and didn't know what he was writing. Feeling that someone was coming, Lin Xiangyu raised his head and found that it was Feng Ge, so he hurriedly got up to greet him: "Your Highness." ”

"Don't be formal, what's going on with Xiao Yanran?" Feng Ge asked eagerly.

Lin Xiangyu replied: "General Xiao said that he had already made preparations, and asked His Highness not to worry, as well as ...... He also hoped that His Royal Highness would leave Fengxian as soon as possible as Du Gongzi said and return to Jingshi, the safest place in the palace. ”

"If I go back like this, how will I see people in the future? Feng Ge responded with a smile, her still somewhat childish face faintly revealed the pride and majesty of the Heavenly Princess, which made Lin Xiangyu's heart tremble: "It is worthy of being the future lord of the world." ”

It's just that even if she is really a true daughter of destiny, she is still young now, and it is not of much use to stay in the border city.

"The situation is so chaotic, Your Highness should take care of your wealth so that you can do more useful things in the future. Lin Xiangyu persuaded hard, but Feng Ge couldn't listen to a word: "No, I must stay, during the trip, I must not return to the palace unless I encounter life and death, this is the rule left by the emperor." ”

"My Highness, seeing that there is about to be a war, isn't it a matter of life and death?" Lin Xiangyu really didn't know what else to do, to be considered a matter of life and death, could it be that the knife was already on his neck? It was already too late.

"Your Highness......

Seeing that Lin Xiangyu still wanted to persuade him, Feng Ge waved his hand: "Don't say it, I won't listen to it anyway." ”

When these words came out, Feng Ge couldn't help but laugh very happily, Lin Xiangyu stood silently and looked at her with smiling eyes, and he couldn't see it, I don't know what happy things this highness remembered.

I have been listening to the government for many years, and some of the suggestions put forward by those officials in the court are good, and some of the suggestions are that I forgot to bring my head at home, and I thought of bad ideas with my ass, and my father politely declined, and they still didn't give up, chasing after them, and my father had to listen to them no matter how impatient he was.

The father who didn't dare to scold the officials only dared to complain in the Danfeng Palace, hoping that these officials who came to work without their heads would resign and go home as soon as possible, and the father said that the biggest wish in this life was to say to these officials: "Don't say it, I won't listen to it anyway." ”

Well, this wish can only be said to my daughter in the room.

Now that he finally said what his father wanted to say but didn't dare to say, the whole person was in a state of joy, but unfortunately his father couldn't hear it, otherwise he would definitely die of jealousy.

It's fun to think about.

Lin Xiangyu, who was standing on the side, of course didn't know that the biggest secret of this dynasty was the current saint and the prince, the little fun between father and daughter, you yin me, I yin you, he just felt worried that he might become a sinner through the ages, in case the prince was hurt in any way, he was afraid that he would have to be buried with him.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiangyu's aggrieved eyes turned red, who is this recruiting to provoke whom, coming here to be a county order, first he was pressed on his head by the people of the Law Palace, and now he has to worry about whether his head will move, why is life so difficult.

Feng Ge looked back, oops, Lin Xiangyu's eyes were already full of tears, she was dying, she hadn't even comforted a crying woman, let alone had the experience of comforting a man, so she hurriedly said: "Lin Aiqing don't have to worry, it's okay." ”

"What if something happens!" Lin Xiangyu wiped a handful of tears and snot, "If His Highness has any mistakes, who can bear this responsibility!"

Feng Ge said strangely: "Of course, Guan Linsen is in charge." ”

"Huh?" Lin Xiangyu was stunned, and forgot to cry for a while, how could it fall on Guan Linsen's head?

"Of course he is in charge, he is my secret guard, and his job is to be responsible for my safety, if something happens to me, wouldn't it be his dereliction of duty. ”

“…… Your Highness, you say so, does he know?"

"I know, Guan Linsen!"

"The subordinates are here. Guan Linsen's long figure once again appeared silently in the study.

"What is your duty?"

"Do your best, but also protect Your Highness. ”

Feng Ge turned his head to look at Lin Xiangyu: "That's it, you heard it too, don't worry, it really has nothing to do with you." Rest assured, there is a wrong, there is a debtor, the father is not a vexatious person, and he will never touch the porcelain on your head. ”

Wait, why does this sound so much like saying that he was afraid of taking responsibility, so he thought about letting her go back to Beijing quickly, Lin Xiangyu hurriedly clarified: "Your Highness misunderstood, Weichen is not afraid that His Majesty will come to find the minister, but His Royal Highness is in Feng County, it is too unsafe, and it is a meaningless adventure, why bother, as the saying goes, the son of a daughter can't sit down, and a gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall." ”

"I'm a daughter, not a gentleman, just a lady. Feng Ge forcibly quibbled.

Lin Xiangyu once again had the idea of "don't go to the Ministry of Industry", in the future, after Her Royal Highness the Prince becomes Her Majesty the Empress, with her own brain and eloquence, she will not be able to live at all if she is crushed alive.

Fortunately, he is not a person who can't think about it at all, since His Royal Highness said that he doesn't care, and there are people who can carry this pot, then play so happily, don't care about these details.

Serious matter, Lin Xiangyu cleared his throat and said: "General Xiao said that the soldiers in Guannei have not received winter clothes and military salaries since last winter, and their morale is low. ”

Those who have always wanted to sit on the throne must stabilize the morale of the army.

And those who want to grab the throne must grab the hearts of the military.

If even the military salary cannot be paid on time, then what is there to talk about the morale of the army, and what is the stability of the country. Feng Ge's originally stretched brows couldn't help but frown slightly, she could guarantee with certainty that her father had never deducted military salaries, and every time it involved military expenditures, he had always given priority to dealing with it urgently, and had never delayed it overnight.

Then it can only mean one thing, there is a problem in the distribution of military salaries.

Where exactly did it start, this also needs to be clarified.

There is another day, there will be a reply from the Langyan Building, Feng Ge is now as anxious as a cat scratching in her heart, although she always quarrels with her father, you yin and me, I yin and you, but she has always loved this father in her heart, and she doesn't want others to say that he is a little bad.

Hengguo is so big, it is impossible to clarify it to everyone, but at least, it would be good to do everything in his power to make the soldiers of the Northern Xuanying change such a mind.

Now the soldiers of the Beixuan camp eat the food sent by the prince of law, and if the prince of law and the court go against him in the future, I am afraid that the object of these soldiers' allegiance to the death will need to be weighed again.

"Your Highness, the customs clearance order has been obtained. Guan Linsen, who was ignored, opened his mouth and presented the clearance token at the same time.

Feng Ge nodded: "I'm going to find Gao Zhenbei." ”

"Your Highness be careful. Although Feng Ge's decision to go with a Beiyan person to find someone sounds very unsafe, Lin Xiangyu has already seen the reality very resignedly, even if it is persuasion, Feng Ge will not listen, it is better to let her do what she wants.

Suddenly remembering something, Lin Xiangyu said, "Wait, I'm going to go with me too." ”
