Although the emperor of the Southern Zhao Kingdom loves beauty more than the country, this ability is only used in treacherous means, and Yu Chaozheng's qualifications are mediocre, and the control of this huge country is so-so, and his political performance has never been good.

Especially in the past few years, Emperor Xu is old age and wisdom are declining, and he has seen even more mediocre strategies in national politics, and he is still very stubborn and does not listen to persuasion, and even loyal ministers and good generals don't know how much.

And at this time, the prince who gradually grew up slowly revealed his talent above the state politics, and he was really better than his father.

The hearts of the subjects gradually moved closer to the prince's side, coupled with the power of the queen's mother's family above the court, not to mention Tian Yi, who would only have no achievements in political achievements, even the emperor had to be afraid of his three points.

Therefore, he will follow the envoy to Weiyang Kingdom this time, and there are two copies of the credentials handed over.

One of them is a very common letter of state, but the other is a letter written by the emperor of Nanzhao State, asking Weiyang State to help the fourth prince Tian Yi when he is vying for the throne.

The reward is also clearly written above, and it will be in the southern border where the two countries intersect, and Nanzhao will take the initiative to sell three border cities as a thank you gift to Weiyang.

To be honest, the emperor of the Southern Zhao Kingdom was really dizzy in order to allow Tian Yi to ascend the throne.

At this point, the emperor of Weiyang is much more sober than him, even if he wants his favorite prince to be able to ascend the throne, he is not as extreme as the emperor of Nanzhaoguo, and it can almost be said that he is a disaster for the country and the people.

Qi Nian couldn't help but be surprised when he first verified the news, now that the competition between the countries was in full swing, who would be willing to give up their own city for no reason, and it was still a place like the border where every inch of land was valuable.

Later, after meeting Tian Yi again, she could understand the thoughts of Emperor Nanzhao.

Not for anything else, just because this child is too well protected by him. If the crown prince can successfully ascend the throne after a hundred years, then according to the emperor's favor for Concubine Chen's mother and son over the years, and his disregard for the prince's biological mother and queen, these are enough for the new emperor to find an excuse to dispose of their mother and son.

Although the emperor of Nanzhao Kingdom is not a qualified good emperor, his love and thoughtfulness for his beloved are beyond the reach of men all over the world.

After the news of Tian Yi's marriage was spread, the ladies of the entire Changle City were all boiling.

But just because he married to another country, the high-ranking and powerful people naturally look down on it, and they are reluctant to give up their own daughters, and the status of concubines is not enough, lest the four princes of the family look down on them.

And those who wholeheartedly want to squeeze into this ship also go to the palace all day long, looking for an excuse to mention this matter to the saint, and hollowing out their hearts and intestines to put their daughters under the emperor's nose to take a look, maybe the girl Hui Zhilan heart can get into the eyes of Nan Zhaoguo.

These things are very lively, and thanks to Qi Nian is being in a place like the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is almost the center of power, these news naturally continue to come in, and they have become the most up-to-date conversation among everyone.

Qi Nian had only seen Tian Yi once at the beginning, and since then he has never had any contact with him in person. Jiao Li, this girl, is not in a hurry for the emperor and the eunuch, looking at Qi Nian all day long, she looks like she wants to speak and stops, I don't know what she thinks, Qi Nian knows, but she never says anything.

Now is the calm before the storm, and she just has to wait and see what happens.

Since Tian Yi made a request to the emperor to ask for a kiss, he moved to the palace from the post station, and everyone was placed in the prayer hall near the Qingliang Palace, one is far away from the harem and the two have nothing to do with it, and the other is also because the emperor is showing his relatives.

When Qi Nian learned the news, he just smiled slightly, noncommittal.

At this time, it is already a hot summer, and all kinds of fresh vegetables and fruits of summer are also on the table. Qi Nian held the jade bone cold silk dough fan in his hand, and threw it into his arms every time, but his eyes were only staring at the plate of melons that had just been served on the table, with a thoughtful expression.

Jiaoli stood beside her and waited for a long time, but she didn't see her move, and couldn't help but say, "Miss, this melon is for eating, not for seeing." ”

Qi Nian couldn't help but raise his eyes and glanced at her, and then said slowly: "This plate of melons was sent from outside the house?"

Although Washington is the residence of the famous prime minister, everyone has a few poor relatives, and Washington is naturally not exempt from vulgarity. Every year, there are always people who come up to fight the autumn breeze, although those melons and jujubes are nothing, but after all, there are countless and annoying.

Moreover, it is better to give a man a fish than to give him a fish, and if any more distant relatives and close relatives come, they will all be sent by the steward to the village that he purchased outside the city.

Although it is just a job to grow fruits and vegetables, there is work to do, so you won't starve to death, and you don't have to go around begging your father to tell your grandmother.

Yes, more and more such things were done in Washington, and the fields and farms outside the city were also bought, and gradually became another industry in Washington, and the things that were planted were sold for what could not be eaten in the house, and a sum of money could be obtained all year round.

But in the end, it's just for the benefit of others and oneself, not for the sake of making money. Yes, when the time comes, the best-growing fashionable things are sent to Washington, and the rest can be disposed of at will.

The best thing to eat in summer is these melons and fruits, Qi Nian has always liked to eat small melons, and in her Bingtai courtyard, this melon is constant in the summer season.

She used to eat and never ask where she got it.

Jiaoli couldn't help but feel strange, and only replied: "All the melons, fruits and vegetables used in the house are sent from the village outside the house, which not only saves a lot of trouble, but also everyone can eat it with peace of mind." ”

"In this way, I am relieved. She said this without a clue, but she smiled slightly, and ate very happily as usual.

The doubts in Jiao Li's heart suddenly gathered even more. She saw that Qi Nian was satisfied with eating the whole plate of small melons, and then said, "Miss, I always feel that something is not right about you these days. ”

Qi Nian got up and went to the bookshelf to get the scroll, and said without even looking back: "You girl, you have too many eyes." When have I been wrong? Not all the time. If you're really idle, go to the kitchen and see how my mung bean and lily soup is doing, and when it's the hottest time in the evening, I'll want to drink a bowl of it cold. ”

This mung bean and lily soup was developed by her, and the list of various herb supplements added to it was really dazzling, and it was simply countless.
