Chapter 156: Visit

Qin Zhili led Sima Yulou into the courtyard of Fuxi Hall with a respectful demeanor, Sima Yulou turned his head and glanced at the west wing, his eyes were soft and smiling.

Jin Yi looked at him through the corner of the veil, a warm smile on her lips, and a sweet feeling welled up in her heart, diluting the worries caused by Yunhui's hostility. As long as he is by his side, no matter how much hardship there is, you don't have to take it to heart.

Sima Yulou entered the door and first gave Yun Hui a meaningful look, and the faint warning made him look a little solemn. Yun Hui gave him a curtled look and twisted her head away.

He saluted the old lady, and after the appointment and ceremony, he called his grandmother, "Yulou greets grandmother." ”

The old lady smiled, "Good! Good! Please sit down and talk. With that, Yingxue was ordered to present the meeting ceremony.

It was the first time she saw Sima Yulou, seeing that he was handsome and elegant, and his demeanor was faintly majestic, and he would definitely not be in the pool in the future, and she was very satisfied in her heart, and felt that it was a blessing for Jinyi to marry him.

"The prince of the world is very good-looking, and he is also a person with both ability and political integrity, and a person of Yutang Golden Horse. Our family Jinyi has you to entrust for life, which is really her blessing. The old lady praised happily.

Yun Hui answered with a smile on the side, "The emperor said that the Yulou is about to start a family, and the prince will be awarded before the wedding." ”

The old lady was overjoyed when she heard this, and he would marry as a prince at that time, and the specifications of the wedding would be a few points higher.

King Chuchen is a hereditary title given by the current saint, and his descendants will always enjoy honor, unlike other titles in the court, which is inherited by the fifth hereditary, and the grade is lowered by one at a time.

Sima Jun, the king of Chuchen, was the second prince back then, and his prestige was the most famous under the crown prince, but his temperament was easy-going and hearty, and he was very close to both the military and the government.

It's just that he is indifferent by nature, and he has no desire to compete for fame and fortune, and after Sima Yi ascended the throne, he kept his head in obscurity, resigned from his high position, and only placed his affection on the rivers and lakes.

The reopening of the jade road in the Western Regions was what he proposed to the emperor.

The 36 countries of the Western Regions, countless years of disputes and wars, there are Xiongnu in the north, the Central Plains dynasties in the east do not let half a point, the countries survive in the cracks, from time to time into the northwest border, although there are also occasional submissions to the Central Plains powers, but most of them are just flattery, and there are often rebellions and rebellions.

The climate of the Western Regions is harsh, the perennial wind and sand are everywhere, not like the fertile soil of the Central Plains, the people are outstanding, so whether it is a period of war or a short period of peace, they are willing to barter with the commercial and trade teams of the Central Plains, and the jade and horses of the Western Regions are also in full swing in the Central Plains, and the strange goods can be lived.

If you trade with the Western Regions, not only can you use the excellent Western Regions war horse bag for your own use, but it will be easier for the Guò caravan to grasp the situation of the countries in the future. Yekang is located in the westernmost part of the Western Regions, and from there to the west, there are many huge empires that are no less powerful than the Central Plains, with large populations and many cities. The most suitable method is to connect with them and establish interoperability.

Therefore, the resumption of the Western Regions business is really a good thing with all benefits and no harm, and a thousand merits.

The emperor was deeply impressed by his construction, and in the years before Sima Jun's death, he often traveled around the northwest. Sima Yulou inherited his father's will, and in just a few years, he had initially searched for a new road to the south near Dunhuang, which could become a new trade road by building and renovating it in the future, and setting up post offices along the road. His achievements are even better than those of his father.

This matter was not clearly discussed in the court before, and now Sima Yulou chose the location of the new road, which can avoid the northern countries of the Western Regions, and the emperor mentioned it to several important ministers in the court, and the Zhenguo Gong and the right minister all agreed, and this matter slowly spread in the court.

The old lady and the salute, to us and the others thought that Sima Yulou was on the throne at such a young age, and was entrusted with the important task of trade in the Western Regions, and in time he would be a hot and prominent figure in the court. Qin Zhiwu looked at him with a look in his eyes and couldn't help but add a little eagerness.

The old lady thought that King Chuchen was often absent from the capital back then, and the princess's life was inevitably lonely. Sima Yulou used to be like this, she only stayed in Beijing for a few months every year and then left in a hurry, she asked him with some concern: "Then, after the prince got married, he must no longer be running around all year round?" ”

Yun Hui's smile was a little proud, "The boy is ambitious in all directions, the mother concubine never restricts the Yulou to travel around, and in the future, Jin Yi will take care of him in the mansion, and he will be more at ease outside." As she spoke, her brows furrowed slightly, "Our family is not like this, and there is always half a year to patrol outside. ”

When the old lady heard this, her expression became a little worried.

Sima Yulou glanced at Yunhui lightly, and said to the old lady with a smile: "I was often absent from Beijing in the past two years, because the emperor entrusted me with the task of surveying the northwest, and now I have to negotiate with various merchants in Jianye about business and trade in the Western Regions. ”

Yun Hui's long eyebrows were raised high, and she was about to refute, but when she saw Sima Yulou's eyes, she shut up again. The old lady was very happy to see that he valued Jinyi so much, and said humbly: "Where does she know these things from a girl's family, don't miss the big things of the prince." ”

"My grandmother was too worried, and my mother often praised her for her intelligence, cleverness, and cleverness, and that she must be a virtuous helper." Sima Yulou replied with a smile.

The old lady smiled, if the princess had spoken, it would naturally be feasible. Thinking that Jinyi's position in the palace would be more stable in the future, he was extremely satisfied.

After the banquet, after everyone in Chuchen's palace said goodbye and left, the old lady called Jinyi, told her everything she had said before, and comforted her: "Yunhui is a person with an upright and stubborn personality, but her heart is not bad, she is married after all, and she will not live in the palace for a long time." As long as the princess and the prince value you, your life will be worry-free in the future. ”

He also told her a lot of truths about being a wife and being filial to her mother-in-law, and told her to have a good husband and children in the future, and to support her elders.

Jin Yi listened and nodded slightly.

"Sister Yi, you are a creative person, I can see that the prince of the world values you very much. Although you suffered a lot when you were young, your future life will surely be smooth and harmonious. The old lady sighed and continued:

"Grandmother wants you to stop holding grudges against your family, your father and I were sorry for you in the past, but now we are trying our best to make amends. …… After all, we are your blood relatives, if you ignore your family roots, will you feel better when you are left alone in the future? ”

After Xu's death and Jinxiu's marriage, I can't help but feel that I have been a little too eager for quick success over the years, and now I am a little disheartened.

Jin Yi listened, but the figure of the queen appeared in her mind, with a peerless appearance and a thousand demeanors. I wonder if she will feel lonely, empty and cold when she guards the huge palace alone?

She caressed the old lady's hand, which was not as white as before, and looked old and yellow. Tracking down Qin Zhiwu before, he just wanted to help the Xie family. Now she has made a decision in her heart to protect the lineage of Marquis Qingrong from being lost, even if it is for the sake of the Qin family's little return.

Her smile was sincere and soft, and she said softly: "Ancestor, your words have been recorded in Jinyi, you can rest assured!" (To be continued.) )
