Chapter 410: Promise
After the girl left, Lin Yan sat for a while, feeling bored, and simply asked people to take out the library book. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
When the emperor came in, what he saw was Lin Yan sitting on the couch, taking a brush and scribbling around the library book.
The Emperor walked up behind her, leaned in to take a look, and asked, "What are you doing here?" Who are you going to give something to? ”
Lin Yan was startled when she suddenly heard his voice, exclaimed in surprise and patted her chest, then turned her head to look at the emperor, and complained a little: "The emperor is really, why don't you make a sound when you come in." ”
The emperor smiled and patted her forehead and said, "Look so seriously." As he spoke, he sat down on the other side of her, and continued to ask, "Who are you going to give something to you?" ”
Lin Yan put down her pen and said, "No, I'm planning to pick out some things to add makeup to Princess Celestia and Youyu." "Celestia and Youyu are both out of the house this year.
said again: "By the way, last time King Miao Jiang didn't pay a lot of tribute to gems and jade, the emperor gave me a lot, and I plan to add makeup to the eldest princess and Youyu each box." ”
The emperor smiled: "You are willing, I don't usually see you take it out for jewelry, but it is generous to the eldest princess and young jade." ”
Lin Yan said with a smile: "The concubine's jewelry is so much that she can't wear it anymore, the one sent by the Shang Gong Bureau, the emperor's reward, and other people's offerings, the concubine only has one head and two hands, and she can wear a lot there, even if she doesn't wear it the same every day." Anyway, these things are left here with me and they are also pressed to the bottom of the box, and they can't be used, so it is better to give them to the eldest princess and Youyu. ”
said and smiled again, and said to the emperor: "Besides, the booklet and key of the emperor's private treasury are still here with the concubine, and the concubine wants to wear a good hairpin, but I am afraid that I can't find good things in the emperor's private treasury." ”
The emperor sneered, "I don't have enough to worry about. He added: "That's it, one is my daughter, the other is your sister, and it is not considered to be given to outsiders, you can give it if you like." ”
Lin Yan smiled, then picked up the two hairpins on the table, held them up to show the emperor, and asked, "Which of these two hairpins is beautiful?" ”
The emperor touched it casually with his hand, one was a golden peach hairpin, and the other was a jade hairpin, all of which were extremely delicate hairpins.
The Emperor asked, "You want to wear it?" ”
Lin Yan shook her head and said, "No, it's for Youyu and Xuanli." ”
The emperor glanced twice, pointed to the jade hairpin, and said, "Use this jasper hairpin, little girl, it looks good with jade." ”
Lin Yan thought for a while, then released the Emerald Gorse Jade Hairpin, put the Golden Beaded Peach Blossom Hairpin back, and said, "Then I will give this Golden Blossom Hairpin to the young jade and the ceremony, and the Golden Blossom Hairpin will be placed in her makeup." ”
Lin Yan beckoned and asked the palace maid to remove the things on the table, and then asked, "By the way, the maid entered the palace today, and I heard her say that Zhao Rin will be transferred back to the capital next year?" ”
The emperor nodded and said, "Zhao Rin has been in office for a few years, and he has done a good job in office. The construction of the north-south straight road would never have gone so smoothly if it had not been for the fact that he had suppressed some people who were waiting for the opportunity to stir up trouble during his tenure. Zhao Rin is a usable talent, transferred back to the sixth department, and experienced a few more years, just for the prince. ”
Lin Yan was a little curious, and said, "It's been three or four years since the straight road was built, where has it been built now?" How long will it take to fix it? ”
The emperor said: "Soon, it will be repaired for two years at most, and it will be completely passable." ”
When the emperor said this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
From the beginning of the construction of the north-south straight road to the present, it is not easy to walk, the treasury can not come up with enough silver to calculate the Wu family's silver money, and some people in the middle oppose and wait for the opportunity to obstruct the people and money, and even say that some natural disasters are the heavenly punishment for the emperor, the emperor, who has worked hard and lost the people and money.
The central treasury was tight, and the emperor was worried that the straight road project would be cut in half due to lack of funds.
Fortunately, after the opening of the port in the past two years, overseas trade flourished, and taxes grew rapidly, filling the gap in funds for the construction of the straight road.
It can be seen that he insisted on opening a coastal commercial port at the beginning, although it led to an increase in the number of pirates, but the Cui family guarded the coast, and did not hurt the people along the coast too much.
The emperor took Lin Yan's hand again and said with a smile: "When the straight road is repaired, I will take you to Jiangnan to take a look." ”
Lin Yan's eyes lit up, she became a little cheerful, and said: "The emperor said golden, don't coax me, you can really take me there when the time comes." ”
Speaking of Jiangnan, Lin Yan only went to the Zhuang family with the Zhuang family when she was a child, and if she could really go to see it, Lin Yan was very happy in her heart.
Since she entered the palace, she has been locked up in the palace year after year, except for occasionally accompanying the emperor to hunt in Qianxing Mountain, she has hardly had the opportunity to leave the palace. Not to mention going to Jiangnan, even if it is just to go to a closer place to breathe, Lin Yan also thinks it is good.
Seeing that Lin Yan was happy, the emperor suddenly felt that this matter was important, sat up straight, squeezed Lin Yan's hand, and said seriously: "Naturally, I will take you there, when did I lie to you." Saying that, he planned the route with him again, and said: "Let's go to Jiangnan first, start from the capital and go all the way to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and I will take you to see the prosperous overseas trade in the seaport today." Starting from Jiangnan, follow the straight road all the way to the northwest to have a look. The Northwest is where you've lived, and you'll definitely want to see it. ”
Lin Yan also looked forward to it when she heard it, and she also missed the northwest a little. The wind and sand in the northwest, the simple people there, and the soldiers guarding the border gates there are all memories of her childhood.
However, Lin Yan thought about it, and felt that it was wrong, and said: "If you go like this, it will take half a year to say less, and the emperor doesn't care about the affairs of the court?" ”
From the capital to the south of the Yangtze River, and then from the south of the Yangtze River to the northwest, and finally from the northwest back to the capital, it is quite a circle around the girder, that is, it takes two or three months to finish the road, let alone go all the way to the mountains and rivers.
The emperor is a worry-loving character, diligent and loves the people, so he really didn't go to court for half a year and went out to play in the mountains and rivers, Lin Yan didn't believe that he could say that he would throw it down.
Then he looked at the emperor with some accusations, which showed that he was still coaxing her.
The emperor laughed and said, "Isn't there still the crown prince, when the time comes, let the prince supervise the country, and we will take the children out to play." ”
The prince is already in his twenties, and it is time for him to practice his hands. Let him have full authority over the country, and also establish his authority.
Lin Yan was a little excited at this time, and said: "Then the straight road must be repaired quickly, the concubine can't wait." ”
The emperor looked at her happy appearance, and couldn't help but be happy himself, and said, "Okay, I will order to urge the Marquis of Zhongshan and Hu Jiong to complete the work in a hurry." (To be continued.) )
