Just as he was thinking, the queen had already come to the imperial study, and the little eunuch was about to announce it loudly, but the queen shook her head, stopped, moved lightly, and entered the imperial study.
His Majesty was sitting behind the imperial desk correcting the recital, his brows were sometimes stretched, sometimes wrinkled, sometimes doubtful, sometimes nodding, his temples were white like frost, and his wrinkles were getting a little deeper.
"I know I'm handsome, but the way you look at it, it will always make people feel embarrassed, and besides, a person's handsomeness is quantitative, if you look at it more, the amount will be less." His Majesty's eyes were still on the fold, but he had already noticed the queen's cunning, and said out loud, his tone was no longer majestic and condescending, but as a husband's ridicule.
"It's also possible that the more you look at it, the more handsome it becomes, and the more you look at it, the more ugly it becomes." The queen pursed her lips and chuckled, walked to the imperial desk, reached out and touched the purple sand teapot carved with a five-clawed flying dragon, the tea in it was already cold, she couldn't help frowning, and the sharp-eyed little eunuch stepped forward, carrying the teapot, stepping on small broken steps, and leaving quickly.
The queen is benevolent and considerate to her subordinates, but she is only concerned about her majesty, if the little eunuch and the little palace maid do not take good care of her majesty, the queen of the mother will be "crazy".
陛xià closes the chapter. Slowly raised his head, saw the queen frowning, and sighed: "Don't blame them." I didn't let them get near the Imperial Desk. ”
The queen walked behind Her Majesty, stretched out her jade hand and gently pressed it on Her Majesty's temple, her tone was a little like a resentful woman, like a little woman who had waited for her husband for many days and had not seen Lang return: "So many movements, approved every day, changed every day, when is it a leader?" ”
A smile appeared at the corner of His Majesty's mouth: "This is also a matter of no choice." That's right. I heard that Roujia's girl has been hiding in the palace recently and not going out, did something happen? ”
The queen took the teapot handed over by the panting but forcibly suppressed the panting little eunuch, and skillfully washed the cup, brewed tea, made tea, fished tea, and poured tea. opened his mouth and said: "It's all a small problem between children, I just came out of her, and there is nothing to do." ”
The queen knows what to tell and what to hide and hide. For example, Pan Meimei appeared in Roujia's matter. It's the part that can't be said.
"It's okay." His Majesty sighed, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and in the emperor's house, this family scripture is even more difficult to read.
Looking at the queen's skillful techniques, I couldn't help but think of the undercurrent in Taiyuan City when she had just got married, especially the three wealthy families, who rushed into the Zhao family's palace at that time with their blades. Confronted His Majesty in the hall, and the queen who had not yet retreated from the red wedding dress came out. It is said that he just purchased some big red robes from Wuyi Mountain, invited the three uncles to taste, and then led the three into the private room, and skillfully made tea and poured tea, during which there was a sound of blades colliding, but the queen was calm, and her tone was light and orderly, which amazed the three lords of the world, and after that, the queen mother, who has always been picky, finally recognized the queen.
The queen pinched the cup in one hand and handed the tea to His Majesty with the other.
His Majesty raised his head and drank, suddenly refreshed, and then looked at the queen's face, and his heart was confused, this tea is exquisite, and drinking tea is even more exquisite, first smelling, then pecking, and finally the taste, as if just like the cow drink, completely lost the elegance of tea tasting.
The queen poured another cup of tea for Her Majesty, she knew that Her Majesty was busy with affairs, but there was one thing she had to say: "Your Majesty, the queen mother's health has been getting worse and worse recently, and the imperial doctor has prescribed a lot of health prescriptions, but there is no improvement, when you are not so busy, you have to go and see more." "Not a request, but some commanding tone.
His Majesty sighed and nodded, as the Ninth Five-Year Honor, there are too many "unfreedoms", he knows the reason why the Queen Mother's body is not as good as day by day, Xu Xiao used to be a thorn in her eye, a thorn in her flesh, and there is hatred in her heart, and she has the motivation and courage to live, but after that night, the anger in the queen mother's heart has disappeared without a trace.
Sometimes, it's easy to live, and it's easy to take that breath.
However, the queen mother seems to have been much more benevolent recently, not only to Meimei. is a lot of kindness to Ouyang Xiaolan, Lin Wan'er and Chen Nuonuo. The queen said with a smile, the queen mother was dissatisfied with Pan Meimei before, she felt that he was charming, she saw that Ouyang Xiaolan was not worthy of Zhao Feng, and she felt that she was full of businessman's breath, and Chen Nuonuo's momentum was too strong, and she was about to overwhelm Zhao Gan, the grandson of the mourning family.
seemed to remember something very funny, the queen burst out laughing, "The queen mother fell in love with "The Story of the Stone", but Lin Wan'er's girl was too lazy, and the queen mother rewarded the Lin family with something if she had nothing to do, but Lin Wan'er couldn't stand it, and personally entered the palace to tell the queen mother two chapters, and the queen mother wiped her tears while saying, if the mourning family is gone one day, you girl will burn the written "Stone Story" to me." ”
His Majesty Xià knows the temperament of the Queen Mother the most, Taizu is a famous wife who is strict, although he married a few concubines, but he did not dare to be too presumptuous, the most beautiful concubine is a play, the Queen Mother handles the wedding, everything is complete, the specifications are very high, more than the grand concubine should be, but before entering the cave room, he said in front of the play: "**Ruthless, the play is unjust." "I was so ashamed that the face was flushed. Later, Taizu died of illness, the queen mother was heartbroken, and after the little concubine learned the news, she came to the door of the queen mother, and respectfully said, "Thank you sister for taking care of me all these years", and then cut three feet of white silk and hung herself on the osmanthus tree in the palace. The queen was expressionless and asked her subordinates to take down the body of the little concubine, and her mouth was still sharp: "This drama is the most scheming, I want to die early and accompany Taizu early, hum, I am the main house in this life, and I will still be the main house in the next life, don't even think about it." Despite saying this, she still carved a tablet for the concubine, placed it next to the Taizu spirit tablet, and wrote two copies of the "Diamond Sutra" by herself. One part was burned to Taizu, and the other was burned to the concubine.
The queen looked at the thick piece of music on the imperial desk, and there was a stack of them about the Zhenbei Army. There is only one copy of the other stack, which is about Xiliang. The people of the harem do not interfere in the affairs of the court, which is the rule set by the previous dynasty, but there are no such rules and regulations in the current dynasty.
After flipping through a few copies, the queen opened her mouth and asked, "Your Majesty, Chen Beijun and Xiliang have not been peaceful recently?" ”
His Majesty let out a long sigh, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not safe in both places." A large number of layoffs in the Zhenbei Army, and the return of veterans to their hometowns was originally a vast thing. Xiahou wrote that all the old soldiers who were laid off should return to their hometowns to settle down, and each person would be given three acres of fertile land, exempted from forced labor, and the settling-in allowance would also be 100 taels of silver. Logically speaking. Xiahou's request was not excessive, but the reduction of 200,000 employees for a time was not a small matter for the Great Wei State. In recent years, most of the silver money accumulated in the treasury was sent to the Zhenbei Army, and there were countless grains and horses. On the surface, the layoffs of the Zhenbei Army were a good thing, but in fact they had a huge impact on the imperial court. ”
Pulling out a letter casually, His Majesty seemed to be a little unbearable to look at it anymore: "Chen Xian and the group of people in the household department calculated that the Zhenbei Army was dispersed in the prefectures and counties, all over the Great Wei Kingdom, and the southernmost can reach Jiangnan Province. Northeast to Shenliao Road, westernmost to the border with Xiliang Han Land. Southwest to Huaixiang Road, all over eight states, thirty-two counties, ninety-eight counties. It is imperative for the Zhenbei Army to lay off personnel, but the layoffs of more than 200,000 employees in one go are somewhat excessive. ”
The queen couldn't help frowning, although she didn't know the details, but she knew that in the heyday of the previous dynasty, the navy army known as the first army in the world was only 500,000 people, and the Zhenbei army suddenly laid off 200,000 people, which would inevitably cause an uproar.
Thinking of the problem caused by the disarmament of the Zhenbei Army, His Majesty showed a strange expression on his face: "Xiahou, Xiahou, you really gave me a problem." ”
His eyes inadvertently swept over the letter about Xiliang, and sighed again: "Compared with the Zhenbei Army, Xiliang is even more unreassuring, the Zhenbei Army is disarming, no matter how many drawbacks it has brought to the imperial court at present, but in the long run, it is always beneficial, but Xiliang is different, especially at this juncture, the meaning is self-evident." ”
The queen's eyes wandered. Xu Xiao entered Beijing two years ago, she deliberately did not contact him, the two had a tacit understanding and skillfully passed by, no matter how much the queen did not agree with Bai Su's choice, but in some aspects, she had to look at Xu Xiao with admiration, there are some things, Xu Xiao will do, and only he dares to do it, such as killing Zhao Jiancheng and Zhao Yuanji, but I don't know what the rough-faced man was thinking after so many years, could it be that he has ......
His Majesty glanced at the queen, knew what she was thinking, and said softly: "Xu Xiao has no objection, he has no interest in power, but it is not easy to say about other people in Xiliang, Fan Li's 'retreat and lock the cool' was a good strategy to control the cold in the early days of the Great Wei Dynasty, but now the drawbacks are also beginning to be revealed, the interior of Xiliang is a mystery, the imperial court cannot penetrate into it, and there is only a thin copy of the huge Xiliang Sanzhou sent to the imperial court." Pan Chunwei has been committed to two things over the years, one is to enhance national strength, and the other is to ban the two behemoths of Zhenbei Army and Xiliang, the former has done very well, but the latter has been difficult to move an inch, especially in Xiliang, there has been no progress at all. ”
His Majesty smiled bitterly, as if he saw Xu Xiao's swarthy face, just like in the past.
"Your Majesty, why don't you send someone to the Zhenbei Army and Xiliang." The queen said.
His Majesty smiled bitterly again, picked up the tea, and drank it all again like a cow chewing a peony: "It's not that I haven't thought about it, and I've done it, but the candidate is a problem." The Ministry of Rites once sent a squire to the Zhenbei Army, and after coming back, he sang praises and praised Xiahou for governing the army in a good way, and the court should be rewarded, and the matter of the Ministry of Rites sending the Zhenbei Army to the Zhenbei Army caused the disgust of many soldiers, and privately said that the court did not trust the Zhenbei Army, and the result was more than worth the loss. But then again, Xiahou did a really good job in the Zhenbei Army, it is not unreasonable to rank the 'Top Ten Masters of the Art of War' Xiahou at the top, Chen Xian commented on a few people, the former dynasty horse soldier Saint Fangzheng is broad, Fan Liqi is treacherous, and several other people also have their own merits, but only Xiahou's way of using troops is all-encompassing, long-distance running, the two armies are facing each other, and even the water war has allowed him to fight a Chibi water battle with less victory, and now the Zhenbei Army has let him build a flowing Zhenbei Great Wall with the least amount of grain, grass and silver. ”
"As for Xiliang, he also sent people to Xiliang, but before he arrived in Xiliang, he was intercepted by Xu Yunfeng, took the carriage, took off his clothes, and walked to Liangzhou. Not to mention the usual patrol of the border and the recitation of the holy decree, the envoy did not even dare to go out of the door, only heard the barking of vicious dogs outside the room, and the terrible shouts one after another. Back in Shangjing, Pan Chunwei saw the man crying bitterly, he was angry, kicked people for the first time, and removed the person's official title. ”
"So it's not that you don't want to send people, but you don't have the right people." His Majesty shook his head and sighed, the huge Great Wei Imperial Court couldn't find two people who could send envoys to the Zhenbei Army and Xiliang, and it really made people laugh when they said it.
His majesty was about to pick up the teacup again, his fingers just touched the edge of the teacup, he was slightly stunned, looked up and looked at the queen, the queen was also smiling, and the two seemed to think of two people at the same time.
"Why don't you and I write down the names of the two and see if they are the same." Majesty said with a smile, at the beginning, Majesty and the queen were famous.
When they were young, the two of them ordered food with Xu Xiao and Bai Su, and Xu Xiao was nothing more than those few dishes, sauce elbow, old vinegar peanuts, and pot chicken...... The meat is rich and flavorful, and the dishes ordered by His Majesty are light and elegant, and the most peculiar places are all loved by the queen. Sometimes, a glance between the queen and Her Majesty can communicate with each other, some like Lin Wan'er and Zhao Gan, but Xu Xiao and Bai Su are not like this, Xu Xiao said nonsense at an inopportune time and unconsciously, Bai Su glared at him, and he was still very puzzled: "Wife, what are you staring at me for, I didn't spit." ”
His Majesty and the Empress wrote the names of the two in their hearts on a piece of paper, then folded them at the same time and handed them to each other.
Slowly unfolding half of the paper, His Majesty looked at the first person's name: Chen Nuonuo with a smile, and nodded incessantly: "Chen Nuonuo, this girl's talent and courage are far beyond others, if he is sent to the Zhenbei Army or Xiliang, it is also very suitable, if he is sent to the Zhenbei Army, you can also let her go to the Zuo Tent Wang Court to see the Allati National Teacher, I heard that this great teacher has recently written a few love poems, haha." Moreover, Chen Nuonuo's "Chen Yishan Anthology" was highly respected in the Zuo Tent Royal Court, and Chen Nuonuo was called 'Chen Yasheng', and his noble status was second only to Allaty. Some time ago, Chen Xian once wrote a book, saying that it was the construction of the 'well' shaped Great Wall to forever solve the trouble of the Huns, this matter was proposed by Chen Nuonuo, and it was a good choice for her to go to the grassland desert for a field survey with careful thoughts.
