Chapter 18: Entering the Palace

Insincere.

The Queen Mother has already said it so bluntly, Xu Suyao is a fool if she can't hear it.

She raised her eyes slightly, looked at the scene in the room with the corner of her eye, and saw that the queen mother seemed to be sitting next to Princess Wuyang, except for Wuyang, there was only one grandmother left. The grandmother gave her a sense of déjà vu, and she suddenly remembered the look in her eyes on the day of the palace banquet.

Seeing the situation clearly, Xu Suyao hurriedly pretended to be sincerely frightened and said, "Su Yao doesn't dare, marriage matters, matchmakers' words, should be up to the Queen Mother and the Holy Lord." ”

At that time, the eldest princess of Meixin insisted on marrying the concubine Xu Keren, but the queen mother did not allow it, and grounded the princess for a month, and finally agreed for some reason, but she clearly told everyone that she didn't like Xu Keren, and Xu Suyao naturally didn't mention the cheap father at this time.

The Queen Mother seemed to be very satisfied with Xu Suyao's attitude, so she looked at her with her eyes, "That's ......."

When she saw Xu Suyao's appearance, her words stopped abruptly, a moment of resentment flashed in her eyes, and her expression stiffened for a moment, but she quickly recovered her expression and changed the topic abruptly, "Su Yao come and sit down, let the mourning family take a good look." ”

It seems that the resentful and ugly appearance just now was dazzled by others.

Xu Suyao didn't know it, she walked to the queen mother's side, smiled and made a gesture of a noble girl, so that she could see enough.

The Queen Mother carefully rubbed Xu Suyao's hand, and in her heart she kept talking over and over again ~ one ~ this ~ reading ~ novel ybdu, like, really like, I just don't know how much talent has been inherited......

Thinking like this, the Queen Mother had a flash of inspiration, took Xu Suyao's hand and said, "The mourning family hasn't summoned you for many years, but I didn't know that you were so similar to your mother......

Xu Suyao naturally followed the Queen Mother's words to comfort, "Mother died early, the Queen Mother was sad, Su Yao was young and ignorant, if she made the Queen Mother sad, wouldn't it be Su Yao's unfilial piety." ”

I accompanied the Queen Mother and said a few words of unnutritious greetings, only to hear the Queen Mother sigh with emotion, "His Royal Highness the eldest grandson of the Great Qi Emperor is menacing, and no one can argue with what Dayuan said. ”

At the time of Taizu, Da Yuan was weak, in order to use the power of Da Qi, he sent people to Da Qi to study, but the saint of Da Qi did not even see faces, only let the palace people bring a bowl of water out, and threatened that if the messenger of Da Yuan could add water to this bowl of water, Da Qi would welcome Da Yuan people.

The envoy of Dayuan thought about it for three days and three nights before a resourceful and courageous person came up with an idea.

He took an identical bowl, filled a full bowl of water, and carefully put salt into the bowl, and finally sent the two bowls into the palace together, and said to the saint of Daqi, Dayuan is like salt, Daqi is like water, salt can not only make water tasteful, but also slow down the evaporation rate of water.

In the next ten years, the Great Yuan became stronger, and the exchanges between the two countries gradually became equal, and finally evolved into an alliance between the two countries, and they agreed to send envoys to each other every three years.

Because it was a matter of the Taizu period, Da Yuan could not dismiss the words of the ancestor back then, and he could not let Xiao Nanting alone lead the matter of unifying the weights and measures of the text currency, so he was in a dilemma.

Dayuan's harem does not prohibit interference in court affairs, and it is understandable for the Queen Mother to mention this matter, but as Su Yao, who has just met Xuan, it is a little inappropriate to discuss this matter at this time.

But considering the rare opportunity, Xu Suyao had to answer, she first came up with a bad idea as an introduction, "Taizu Shengming, but the messenger of Taizu only incorporated a little salt, which can still be entered, but Daqi this time has a clear meaning to express the existence of communication, isn't it an allusion to increasing the amount of salt several times, isn't that salty and bitter, and there is no way to enter?" The Holy One used this as an excuse to send people away, didn't he make it? ”

The Queen Mother's eyes showed disappointment, "In the end, it is a child, the idea is too simple, how could Daqi be so reckless, what they came to send back this time was not the original bowl, but a hundred times larger than the original bowl." ”

Xiao Nanting didn't move the so-called "bowl with salt water" into the hall last night, so Xu Suyao didn't know that there was such an episode, and now it sounds like it's full of black lines.

Where is this bowl, it is clearly a cylinder!

This is a meaningful way to tell Dayuan that today's Daqi is no longer what it used to be, and its strong posture is impressive.

Xu Suyao listened, pretending to be contemplative, and chuckled for a long time, which attracted the attention of the Queen Mother, "His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun is afraid that he has not yet considered a situation." ”

"Oh?" The Queen Mother couldn't hide her expectation in her eyes.

I heard Xu Suyao say, "His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun must not have imagined that the salt that has been put into the water can still be taken out." If the salt in the water were taken out, wouldn't there be no embarrassment of the east wind overpowering the west wind? What else does Daqi have to make me Dayuan? ”

Now Xiao Nanting's battle is just that Dayuan and Daqi have been intertwined, like salt into water, they can only continue to integrate with each other, mutual benefit, and cannot draw a clear line. Xiao Nanting even took the initiative to use marriage as an introduction to the unification of text, currency, weights and measures.

But if it is clearly shown that Da Yuan and Da Qi can still be cut off with one sword, Da Qi will naturally regress first.

Wuyang on the side saw that the Queen Mother's body and mind were all on Xu Suyao's body, and he couldn't help but be anxious, but he couldn't interject all the time, and when he heard Xu Suyao's remarks, he hurriedly sneered and said, "Take out the salt that melted water?" What a joke! Could it be that Sister Su Yao thought that she could evaporate Daqi and leave Dayuan intact in vain? ”

Take the salt out of the water, unless it evaporates the water, or it's a fool's dream!

The queen was no longer enthusiastic, glanced at Xu Suyao, and finally accepted her fate, this person is far from Meixin.

Xu Suyao sensed the attitude of the Queen Mother, her heart sank, but for some reason, her face was not obvious, and she replied unhurriedly, "Sister Wuyang said and laughed, Daqi and Dayuan are equal in strength, if there is a real war, it will kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, but if you take the salt out of the water, you don't need to work so hard." ”

"Do you really have a way?" The Queen Mother's mind turned alive again.

After Xu Suyao finished speaking, the Queen Mother and Wuyang did not believe it, and finally heard Xu Suyao say that method is easier said than done, so it suddenly dawned on her, and finally agreed to let Xu Suyao go back to the house to prepare, and then enter the palace the next day to solve the problem on the spot.

Xu Suyao agreed, leaving the palace and returning home.

Back to Xu's mansion, he first went to see Xu Siming and exchanged news with Xu Siming, Xu Siming learned from Dong Ge Lao that the saint had made his attitude clear and intended to promote this matter, and because the Queen Mother had invited Su Yao, Xu Siming naturally didn't have to go to Mrs. Min.

Xu Suyao said about her entry into the palace, and when she mentioned that the Queen Mother was going to say that Xiao Nanting's request to marry a royal lady turned into a "salt water" case after she opened her mouth, Xu Siming couldn't help but interrupt, "This thing is too weird." ”

Xu Suyao smiled bitterly, "You can see it too?" ”
