Chapter VI The Way of Governing the Country

I woke up the next morning feeling dizzy, and I sat up a little spinning, and sure enough, I couldn't rely on my own will, I should have known that I was a person who was not strong-willed!

Qingge came in with water, saw that I was awake, and said with a smile: "Niangniang, are you awake?" I was really drunk last night, but fortunately the prince brought you back. ”

I nodded unconsciously, thought about it, something was wrong: "Qingge, was the prince angry last night?" ”

"No, I was a little happy, but then you shouted a few times, and the prince put you on the bed with a gloomy face."

"It's broken!" I exclaimed, and began to think back to what had happened last night.

After I thought about it carefully, I could only think of my nonsense about going home and being a humble gentleman, and I didn't know how I came back after that, or I didn't understand what was going on, so I had to ask the prince to go? Don't do it, I still don't mention it, and if he doesn't mention it, I won't ask, so as to avoid suffering.

After a while, the prince sent someone to ask me to have lunch together, and I didn't dare to go over, but I didn't dare to refuse, so I passed slowly.

In the hall, there is still a large circle of warblers and swallows, but this time it is still for face, and the seat of the concubine is reserved for me, I cheered myself up before entering the door, I was afraid that the prince could not lose his identity in front of this group of concubines, so I walked in with my head held high, saluted the prince and sat down, and ate by myself.

"Concubine Ai drank to her heart's content last night?"

When I heard this, I choked on a breath and couldn't stop coughing, Qi Min handed over the tea bowl, I took it and took a long sip, and smiled casually: "xiexie." ”

Qi Min was stunned for a moment when he heard Xiexie, and he didn't say anything, so he continued to eat, but this big table was full of jealousy, and Ruoyun was also a little surprised.

I buried my head in eating, thinking that I hoped that this group of warblers and swallows would never come to provoke me, I couldn't afford to provoke you!

When I finished eating as fast as I could, and was about to slip away quietly, Qi Min asked me in an inquiring tone: "How many days will I go boating with all my brothers, but will I go with my concubine?" ”

I refused: "The concubine doesn't like boating on the lake, so she won't go along." After speaking, Ruoyun seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Qi Min looked stunned, and then looked as usual: "Then Gu agreed to be a concubine." ”

I was shocked, I obviously refused, what does Qi Min mean, you have to take me there? I didn't want to say anything more, so I replied, "The concubine obeys." Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of Ruoyun's sneer, and I sighed in my heart, Qi Ming, can't you accumulate some virtue and let me go!

Anyway, in a few days, I don't cover the quilt when I sleep these days, I want to freeze myself into a cold, so that I don't have to go boating with Qi Min, I don't want this Wang Yun's body bones are really good, it's been a few days, and I haven't even sneezed!

Qi Min seems to know my thoughts, and he will come to the other courtyard every day, saying that he is visiting, but in fact he is monitoring and watching.

He took the notebook and the book, and watched the major affairs of his family and country, and the people were suffering, so I raised flowers and grass, or practiced calligraphy and piano.

In other words, Qi Min is very careful, it may be from the palace banquet I disdain for Ruoyun's qin skills or Ah Han said to him, in short, he sent me a zither, the workmanship is excellent, I accepted it peacefully.

Qi Min looked at me stroking the kite, and suddenly said: "Concubine Ai is very good at this, why didn't she know before?" ”

I didn't care: "It means that you have eyes without beads!" ”

His eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked, "Oh? ”

I waved my hand: "I'm kidding." ”

He had no choice: "Hmph, I have no eyes to give you such a haode guzheng?" ”

I whispered, "Isn't it just a kite!" ”

When Qi Min heard my words, he drank the tea carefully with a covered bowl, and said unhurriedly: "Well, isn't it just a guzheng!" I'll put Ruoyun's crying behind me and give it to you! ”

"Zheng", I played a wrong note, and then said to him with a bitter face: "Why do you bother, prince, isn't this forcing me to death?" ”

He was interested: "How do you say this? ”

"Women, jealousy is not fatal, isn't there a saying that the most poisonous woman's heart, you can let me give birth for two days."

He nodded, as if in agreement: "How about you try to see what she can be jealous of?" ”

I excused myself and said, "Don't mind, you can find any one at random, you can't afford to be a concubine!" ”

He smiled: "Just know that you are afraid, Lone doesn't want to have a princess who doesn't know the height of the sky." ”

I paused: "Sick!" ”

He glanced at me: "If the crown princess is a close friend, it will be the best, reciting poems, painting on the piano, and talking about life." ”

When I heard this, I nodded in agreement: "Prince, you are right, I am suitable to be a friend rather than a concubine-"

Before he finished speaking, he said to himself: "Of course, it is best if it is a wife. ”

My face immediately darkened, and when he saw this, he smiled: "Well, you can play the qin, I won't bother you." ”

I thought depressedly, how can I be in the mood to play the piano! So I was free to let go.

After a while, he patted me on the head with a book: "Don't be stupid there. ”

I glanced at him impatiently: "Something to say!" ”

He threw me a book: "If you really have nothing to do, just read the book." ”

I glanced back at him: "Did the prince forget that the concubine is illiterate?" ”

He continued to flip through his book: "Don't pretend now. ”

I opened the book "Outline of Governance" in a depressed way, so I put it on the table again without reading it.

Qi Min raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter, Concubine Ai is not interested?" ”

I shook my head: "It's not a matter of interest. ”

"Oh? So why is the concubine like this? ”

I frowned and said, "Everyone has their own ideas and means to govern the country, and it is too narrow to rule the world with just one book?" ”

"Well," he nodded, "in the opinion of the concubine, how?" ”

"Governing the country is like planting a tree, if the roots are not shaken, the branches and leaves will flourish. The year is abundant, and the happiness of the people is the foundation of the country. Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, with a degree and inaction, so that the world can live in peace. However, if the country is governed by the wisdom of one person, it is inevitable that it will be biased, and the road will also be the public in the world, select the virtuous and competent, emphasize faith and harmony, replace the rule of man with the rule of law, and the world will be at peace. ”

I looked at Qi Min thoughtfully, and then continued: "However, being a person is always obsessed with desires, and the world is for the public, so it can only be left for future generations. ”

Qi Min praised: "Although these words are disrespectful, they are true to every word, how can Concubine Ai have such an opinion?" ”

I smiled reluctantly, I can't say I'm standing on the shoulders of giants looking at these issues, right? So he could only say: "I think crankily when I am idle." ”

Qi Min looked at me inquiringly: "Cranky thinking that there can be such results, Aifei is really getting more and more incomprehensible!" ”

I smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, I dare not take it." ”

Qi Min didn't say anything more, and I quietly went to practice calligraphy
