That's a lot to ask for......

Xiao Tong complained in his heart and nodded, "Remember, what else does Your Highness command?"

Shen Lanying looked at a large table of food, then turned back to look at Xiao Tong, and said seriously, "Eat." It is a sin to waste food. ”

Xiao Tong's eyes were immediately full of horror, this table is enough for the two of them to eat all day, her master actually asked her not to waste it!?

……

The next day, Shen Lanying got up very early, and because she had nothing to do, she simply took out the guqin and played. By the way, let Xiaotong go out to watch the wind, originally I wanted to wait for Jiang Xu to leave, so I could come out and have a good time, but I didn't expect that the little prince would not have a game today. And her piano sound successfully aroused the curiosity of the little prince, and as soon as she played a few tunes, a man who looked like a subordinate came to her, saying that the fifth prince wanted to see her.

Isn't it?

Shen Lanying was silent for herself for a second, stood up, and was about to go to the meeting alone, but Xiao Tong came to her side and whispered, "Your Highness, I'll go with you." ”

Go to the yarn. Shen Lanying pointed to the piano table, "Don't go, you clean up the house." Also, I want to learn to dance, so you should think about how to teach me. Let's go first. With that, Shen Lanying waved her hand at Xiao Tong and strode towards Jiang Xu's house.

When she was about to reach the door, Shen Lanying raised her head, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of a figure appearing at the corner of the corridor, clearly a careerist. Shen Lanying was stunned, and seeing the complicated look on Sikong Yan's face, she decided that he had rushed to hear the news, and sighed in her heart that the careerist's brain was malfunctioning again, and then quickly pushed open the door of Jiang Xu's room and walked in.

There were only two people in the house, Jiang Xu and Xia Ke. The little prince was looking at something, when he heard the sound of pushing the door, he looked up vigilantly, and saw that it was Shen Lanying, so he squinted his eyes and looked at her dissatisfied, "Don't knock when you enter someone else's house, your upbringing is really good." ”

Well, I originally wanted to knock on the door, but Sikong Yan is also coming here, if she doesn't come in quickly, she will inevitably meet with the careerist, and then it will be bad.

Shen Lanying was helpless, knelt down and said, "It was the people's daughter's negligence that disturbed His Highness, and the people's daughter deserved to die." Your Highness doesn't remember the villain, so spare the people this time. ”

Jiang Xu raised his hand and rubbed his temples, as if he had a headache, "Shen Lanying, this palace told you yesterday that you don't have to kneel in front of this palace." Also, what your personality is originally, just keep it that way, no need to disguise. ”

Shen Lanying was angry with Jiang Xu, so she said timidly, "But Your Highness, it's my personality not to knock when I enter the house." ”

"You!"

Shen Lanying saw that Jiang Xu was angry, so she lowered her head even more to hide her smile, but at this time, a knock on the door sounded, followed by the voice of the careerist, "Xu'er, it's me." ”

"Xia Ke. Jiang Xu waved his hand.

Xia Ke arrived at the door in a flash, opened the door quickly, and invited Sikong Yan to come in. Jiang Xu also put away his anger, stood up, and smiled at Sikong Yan, "Why is Mr. here?"

"If you have nothing to do, you will sit here with Your Highness. ”

The voice sounded like a laugh. Shen Lanying's eyes moved, praying that Sikong Yan would not have a brain twitch.

Shen Lanying knelt on the ground, although she was expecting Sikong Yan's brain not to convuls, but when he passed by without stopping, her eyes couldn't help but move with the hem of his floating clothes. There was a strange emotion rising from her heart, Shen Lanying laughed at herself in her heart, although she said that she wanted to keep her distance from Sikong Yan, in fact, she still wanted to be protected by him, she was really awkward.

Sikong Yan walked up to Jiang Xu and saluted.

Jiang Xu also nodded and returned the salute and said, "Sir, sit." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness. Sikong Yan smiled and thanked him, and then asked curiously, "What happened, why did His Highness call her?"

In Sikong Yan's expression, Jiang Xu didn't see concern, only curiosity, and his heart relaxed a little, and said, "It's nothing." Hey, you stand up. ”

"Your Highness. Shen Lanying stood up and blessed Jiang Xu again, "Your Highness called me over, what are you doing?"

Jiang Xu's purpose was to test Shen Lanying yesterday and ask her to remember the content and find fault by the way, but unfortunately he miscalculated, Shen Lanying had already memorized the bad things that Princess Zhaoying had done when she was a child.

Seeing that there was still a lot of time left, Jiang Xu didn't want to let go of Shen Lanying so easily, so he asked a question, "I heard from Mr. that you didn't live in our Yongguo in the past, right?"

"Yes. I had never left the Qianjimen's sphere of influence before. ”

"Then tell me, what kind of country is our Yongguo?"

Shen Lanying had already thought about this answer, and at this time, she just took out Qi Jiang Xu, she raised her head, smiled and said, "The Son of Heaven lost his official position, and he studied in Siyi." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Jiang Xu's tone became unkind.

Shen Lanying became more and more proud, shrugged her shoulders, and said, "When I found out that Wang Yichen was in a state of killing him and not being an official, I felt that there was something wrong with the imperial court system. Yesterday I saw a few officials who had been demoted to the local area, and they were dismissed for just saying that they should not be allowed to fight naval battles. There are also many talented people gathered in the south, and with their talents, it is not difficult to pass the Jinshi examination, but they do not apply for the examination at all. His Highness said what does this mean, is it that the Son of Heaven has lost his official position?"

Jiang Xu snorted coldly, "So what? My Yongguo has never been uncommon with those few people. ”

Shen Lanying continued to anger Jiang Xu as if she was looking for death, "But the folk girl doesn't think so." There are two stages to the loss of office. The first stage is that the Son of Heaven lost his official position and learned in Siyi. The second stage is the loss of officials in Siyi, and learning from the people. When the emperor can't retain talents, talents will find some small forces as backers, and when these small forces can't retain talents, talents will go to the people, just like now. Minnu believes that this is a symbolic phenomenon of a dynasty turning from prosperity to decline. ”

"You!" Jiang Xu was completely blown up, and he shot the case directly, as if he was going to devour Shen Lanying alive.

"She's right. ”

"Sir?" Jiang Xu looked back in amazement, and saw Sikong Yan's calm and thoughtful appearance.

Sikong Yan was as calm as ever, with a faint smile on his face, "Your Highness, you forgot, we are still inciting the emotions of the courtiers and forcing the court to change generals." This is not what is supposed to happen when politics is clear. ”

Jiang Xu was stunned, of course he hadn't forgotten the methods he and Sikong Yan had come up with behind the scenes, but he hadn't thought about it, this was also the phenomenon of the Son of Heaven losing his official position.

If it was just the brain drain, he might not care about it, but Shen Lanying's words just now linked the brain drain with the rise and fall of the dynasty, which made him nervous.
