Chapter 236
Chu Mao's question of whether Ah Wu is good or not, Ah Wu has not seriously thought about it. may seem to ordinary people to think that His Royal Highness King Qi is already very good, but Ah Wu's requirements for people have always been harsh. Even putting aside Mama Hao, just praying to His Royal Highness the King himself, Ah Wu also felt that his moodiness and excesses, as well as his alienation from the eldest princess, were all big shortcomings.
Ah Wu's expression was a little embarrassed for a while, and Gu Tingyi thought of her asking a girl to come to her to find a way, and she had her own opinion in her heart.
"Ah Wu, if he treats you badly, as long as you open your mouth, the second brother will take you away." Gu Tingyi said.
Ah Wu never thought that Gu Tingyi would say such a thing, she smiled and said, "What are you kidding the second brother, how can I go?" ”
"As long as you are willing, it is really artificial, and you will always think of a way. And now the situation is unclear, if it really comes to that point, it is better to ...... it earlier" The more Gu Tingyi thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, in case the king failed to seize the throne, it would definitely affect Ah Wu.
A Wu felt a wave of emotion in his heart, only Second Brother Gu would propose to take her away when he felt that she was not doing well, and everyone else had too many concerns and would never say such a thing. But moved to be moved, Ah Wu didn't feel that he was so miserable that he needed to die.
"Okay, second brother, don't talk about this. Do you know the reason for the matter of Xiangjia? Ah Wu asked.
Although Gu Tingyi nodded, Ah Wu still said the matter again, "Second brother, do you think that your uncle is so ruthless to the Xiang clan, will you still care about Chu Yu?" ”
Gu Tingyi thought for a while, "Not necessarily, after all, he is still his uncle's son." ”
"But this matter was shaken out by King Qi, I think Chu Yue must hate King Qi's Mansion to death now, so he must not be allowed to ascend to the throne, second brother." Ah Wu looked at Gu Tingyi and said.
"What do you want to do?" Gu Tingyi asked.
"Second brother, you just go to Luobei to have a look, behind this matter is His Highness is promoting, if something happens to Luobei, His Highness will not be the first to pay the difference, whether it is for Li Min or for me, the second brother will seriously consider it, okay?" Ah Wu said cautiously.
Ah Wu had to admit that she had used a little despicable means, just like Chu Mao scolded her, playing with people's emotions and applauding, but she was also forced to pull Gu Tingyi onto the boat.
"Second brother, go back and persuade my mother if you have a chance, in my opinion, the fifth prince is not reliable, his character is too bad, you don't know how to talk about him, he ...... to me" Ah Wu paused, "In short, if such a person ascends the throne, it will not be a good thing for the country and the people." ”
"Okay, I'll go and persuade my mother." Gu Tingyi nodded.
It was probably because Gu Tingyi agreed too easily, which somewhat surprised Ah Wu, "Second brother? ”
"I didn't perfunctory you, Ah Wu, I will help you get whatever you want." Gu Tingyi looked at Ah Wudao seriously, and smiled again, "Who called you my most beloved sister?" Gu Tingyi straightened the strand of hair that was flying around her sideburns for Ah Wu.
Ah Wu cut his hair a little unnaturally and smiled, "I should take another sip." "It seems that except for Chu Mao, he is still not very comfortable with other people's touches, and Ah Wu himself feels a little strange.
Ah Wu was a little irritable in her heart, she could naturally see that Gu Tingyi was still a little different from her, but she had to use this "difference" to achieve her goal, and she was even a little lucky.
Ah Wu couldn't help but be annoyed in her heart, if it weren't for his tough attitude, she wouldn't have dragged her second brother into such a mud anymore, even she felt a little unforgivable.
But if Ah Wu tells the matter and the plan, according to the self-esteem of the eldest princess and Gu Tingyi, Ah Wu really doubts that there will be a bigger moth, Ah Wu can't afford to lose, so he doesn't dare to try it easily, so he can only take boiling water and pour it on Gu Tingyi's heart, "Second brother comes back this time, the family should have to worry about your marriage, right?" I have a few good candidates to recommend to my second brother. ”
"Mother really has to worry about this matter, and maybe she will really come to ask Ah Wu's opinion when the time comes, after all, you have more contact with those girls, and you know their temperament and conduct better." Gu Tingyi said with a smile.
Ah Wu listened to Gu Tingyi's words, she was overjoyed, her second brother was much better than her younger sister, but she was filthy. "Naturally, I will definitely take care of my brother."
A bright and moving smile burst out on Ah Wu's face, and Gu Tingyi sighed in his heart, "That's enough." ”
Gu Tingyi actually understands better than the eldest princess Fuhui, the virtue of the fifth prince has never been in the eyes of his uncle, and the uncle liked the sixth prince from the beginning, because this time there was an accident with the Xiang family, and the fourth and fifth princes had a chance to win the championship. But Gu Tingyi has never been optimistic about the five princes, but he can't help the eldest princess's choice, after all, the eldest princess and the Xiang clan have always been on good terms, so naturally it is impossible to support the six princes, she is even more disgusted with the four princes, and the five princes are their only choice, which is why Gu Tingyi and his eldest brother have never opposed the eldest princess. But looking at the current situation, Ah Wu is the fourth princess, if Chu Mao ascends to the throne, Gu Tingyi feels that for the Weiguo Mansion, it is more advantageous to support the four princes to ascend the throne than the five and six princes to ascend the throne.
Ah Wu was in a good mood all the way back to the palace from Huang Ji, and the things that had been pressing on her heart finally had some clues, and when she passed by Dexingfang, she specially asked Zijin to go down and buy Han Ji meat buns and Shen Ji's braised pork knuckle, such things Ah Wu is naturally difficult to look at on weekdays, but when she passed by, the tip of her nose moved, so she made the decision to buy it.
Ah Wu asked Zijin to take the things and distribute them to Zifan, and then sent one to Mama Gong and Mama Sang, and even Lu Ruoxing and others from the Ice and Snow Forest also had a share. So much so that everyone could see that the princess was in a good mood today.
Contrary to Ah Wu's good mood, as soon as she walked into the inner room of the ice and snow forest, she saw Chu Mao sitting on the couch in the south window with a straight face.
"Your Highness." Ah Wu called out loudly, Chu Mao's face was engraved with the three big words "unhappy", seeing that Chu Mao didn't pay attention to her, Ah Wu didn't want to touch the ashes, so he turned into the clean room.
When Ah Wu came out again, Chu Mao had already changed his appearance, holding the scroll in his hand, turning the pages regularly, his face was no longer cold, and he had returned to his former cleanliness.
Ah Wu sat in front of the dressing table, wiping his hands with balm, while secretly looking at Chu Mao, and was finally caught by Chu Mao.
Seeing him put down the book in his hand, Ah Wu beckoned to her, and then she walked over, sitting opposite Chu Mao across from Xiao Ji, and didn't take the initiative to speak.
"The emperor's will has come down, and I have to leave the day after tomorrow, but I think about it, I still think it's good for you to go with me, so that after I leave, no one can suppress the fifth child." Chu Mao's knuckles tapped on the small table.
Ah Wu looked at Chu Mao with some surprise, "But ......" But her father Wei Guogong in her previous life had a birthday, and she had to go to celebrate her birthday. It's just that this reason can't be explained, "However, if I go south with His Royal Highness, and Mama Hao also returns to her hometown, who will take care of this mansion?" ”
"I've already told her on Mama's side, and it's not too late for her to return to her hometown a few months later."
Ah Wu then knew that Chu Mao had already arranged everything, and he didn't discuss it with her at all, her face showed anger, but she didn't speak, thinking that Mama Hao would take back the housekeeping rights in the past few months, and when she came back, she would definitely have another open and secret fight, and she only felt annoyed in her heart.
"But I'm afraid of water." Ah Wu was "dying" and struggling.
"Let's go south this time and go back to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, haven't you always missed the scenery of Jiangnan?" Chu Mao asked.
"When did I say I missed the scenery of Jiangnan?" Ah Wu Qi said.
"I see that most of the landscapes and landscapes you paint are Jiangnan scenery, don't you miss Jiangnan?" Chu Mao asked rhetorically.
Ah Wu raised his eyebrows, "When did Your Highness see my paintings?" ”
Chu Mao was silent, but Ah Wu understood, and wanted to pray that His Royal Highness would carry her on his back to rummage through her study, and when Ah Wu was about to speak sarcastically, he heard Chu Mao say: "What did you do today, how did you go out for most of the day?" ”
Ah Wu suddenly restrained her anger, she met with Gu Tingyi in private, although she was innocent, but in the eyes of outsiders, it was not a good thing after all, "I went to Buzhuang and Zhenbao Store to shop casually." ”
Chu Mao nodded and didn't ask any more questions, which made Ah Wu breathe a sigh of relief.
"It's settled, you explain the affairs of the house, or pretend to be sick, I'll let Lu Ruoxing and Zifan help you round, just pack your luggage a little bit." Chu Mao said, regardless of whether Ah Wu agreed or not, "I'll go to Xu Xiantang." ”
Ah Wu looked at Chu Mao's back, and almost didn't stare out his eyes, His Royal Highness the King of Qi is so annoying.
Ah Wu didn't see Chu Mao until the day she left, but He Chun and He Shui escorted her out of Beijing through the back door of the garden to join Chu Mao.
Ah Wu met Chu Mao on the wharf, this time Chu Mao was ordered to control the river, and the official boat was marked with a big word "prayer", accompanied by officials from the Ministry of Household and Industry, as well as the officials who were personally selected by Chu Mao to govern the river.
Because Princess Qi was sick in Beijing, Ah Wu only dressed up as an ordinary person, and the people who served around him were commensurate with his wife, and the rest of the people only regarded Ah Wu as Chu Mao's concubine. When the prince goes out of Beijing on an errand, it is very common for him to serve one or two by his side, so Ah Wu's boarding of the ship is not eye-catching.
As soon as Ah Wu got on the boat, he was a little dizzy, although the building boat was spacious and stable, but Ah Wu was afraid of water, so he only stayed in the cabin, and the bamboo curtains were hung on the windows, which was ventilated and not scary to look at the water.
Ah Wu just lay down, and Chu Mao walked in. "Your Highness." Ah Wu sat up, was picked up by Chu Mao, and rested on his lap.
"Are you afraid?" Chu Mao pressed his forehead against Ah Wu's forehead.
Ah Wu's face turned pale, and he forced a smile and said, "It's okay." ”
"If you're afraid, you change into men's clothes and follow me downstairs." The cabin at the bow of the ship downstairs was used for deliberations, and Chu Mao was there to discuss the water situation with the accompanying officials and staff. Ah Wu thought about it, it was good to distract himself, so he nodded, turned to the back of the screen to change his clothes, because of the thin summer clothes, Ah Wu also specially wrapped his chest with a white cloth, which provoked Chu Mao, who was eating tofu with his eyes behind him, frowned, went up and pulled the white cloth on Ah Wu's hand and threw it aside, and rubbed his hands on it.
"Your Highness." Ah Wu dodged Chu Mao's An Lushan claws, but was thrown directly on the bed by Chu Mao, because he had not been touched for several days, Chu Mao came back menacingly, Ah Wu couldn't resist it, and was afraid that the thin floor was not soundproof, biting his lower lip, listening to the creaking sound of the bed, he was so ashamed that he was red.
In the middle of the day, there was another group of people downstairs, Ah Wu had to cooperate with Chu Mao's greed, let him take what he wanted, and he was worried about letting him hurry up, but he didn't dare to urge, this highness is the most annoying, if you let him be lighter, he will attack you hard. Ah Wu blushed, his mouth was slightly open, and he remembered the painting in the booklet that Tang Yin gave her, his mind moved, contracted slightly, and straightened his waist to meet it, and in a trance, he heard Chu Mao's low curse, and turned her over and pressed her head.
Ah Wu gritted his teeth, moved his hips back, and the thin waist that was pinched by Chu Mao twisted slightly, and sure enough, this time, His Royal Highness the King of Qi didn't last long, and poured a stream of heat on her, lying on her back to gasp.
"Heavy." Ah Wujiao said with a sigh of disgust, she was also very tired, and she was weaker than usual, but after Chu Mao moved her body, she turned around and took his pillow and put it under her waist.
Chu Mao looked at Ah Wu amusedly and said, "What are you doing?" ”
Ah Wu blushed and whispered like a mosquito: "I heard that this is easier to conceive." ”
Chu Mao was stunned, biting Ah Wu's earlobe and laughing: "Instead of this, you might as well beg me to be more diligent." ”
Ah Wu took a sip of Chu Mao.
"That's how you want to have children?" Chu Mao lay beside Ah Wu and asked, "Didn't you say that you were too young to get pregnant and hurt your body?" ”
Ah Wu thought to himself, he was only fifteen years old at the time, and he was seventeen this year, "Isn't Your Highness worried, I heard that some people have been talking about His Highness getting married for a long time, but he ......"
Chu Mao's hand was on Ah Wu's lower abdomen and said, "You don't have to pay attention to these gossip, I will have my own way when the time comes." Don't worry too much about that, just let it be. ”
Ah Wu nodded. Only then did Chu Mao call the girl to fetch water and come in to serve.
"Do you rest for a while, or go down with me." Chu Mao asked after putting on his clothes.
Although Ah Wu's body was a little weak, he was still a little uncomfortable when he thought that this was on the boat, so he propped himself up and said, "I'm with Your Highness." ”
"You don't have to wrap that Rausch in a white cloth, you think you can cover your ears and steal the bell?" Chu Mao glanced at Ah Wudao, who had a feminine look at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
"That's too conspicuous." Awu muttered.
In fact, even if Ah Wu wears men's clothes, he is still conspicuous. She is such a beautiful man, but it is rare in the world. "It's okay, it's just okay on the surface." Chu Mao reached out and buttoned Ah Wu's man's robe.
When Ah Wu appeared in the council hall with Chu Mao, everyone was silent for a moment, and then they stepped forward to salute Chu Mao, as if they didn't see Ah Wu, and discussed the matter of controlling the river.
Chu Mao gave Ah Wu a look, and Ah Wu pursed his lips and smiled. In fact, she doesn't look like a man, and wearing men's clothes is just a superficial reason for everyone to get along.
Everyone here is a human spirit, and they had already guessed that this must be the lady who boarded the ship in the morning, but they didn't expect His Royal Highness to be so fond of her, and they couldn't leave it for a moment.
"Yusheng, you can accompany Shen Lao to play a game of chess." Chu Mao introduced Ah Wu to the oldest brown-robed old man in the room.
"Elder Shen, Yusheng is the one who solved the game of chess in front of the Ice and Snow Forest."
Shen Hejing had already asked Chu Mao about that person, but Chu Mao never answered, and he didn't expect it to be a woman, but Shen Hejing often came and went to the Qi Palace, but he had never heard that the King of Qi had an internal favor, and he thought that this must not be a lady, but a serious princess of Qi.
A little guy had already come with a chessboard, and Ah Wu sat down generously opposite Shen Hejing because he was a "man" at this time. The two rolled the dice to choose chess, and Ah Wu took the lead in black.
Shen Hejing's eyes only dared to look at Ah Wu's hand, and he didn't dare to look up again. The black chess pieces are sandwiched between Ah Wu's white and slender fingers, so beautiful that they are like jade carved ice, and their hands are known to be stunningly beautiful, and King Qi is so indistinguishable between public and private, which arouses Shen Hejing's jealousy of Ah Wu. It doesn't hurt for ordinary people to be favored, but it is not good for emperors to love their children, and there have been cases in ancient times. However, before it was time to worry about this matter, Shen Hejing returned his mind to the chess game.
When Shen Hejing returned to his senses and looked again, his white son had been forced into a corner by Ah Wu, and he no longer dared to be distracted, and concentrated on dealing with the sunspot.
Ah Wu supported his ears to listen to Chu Mao's deliberations.
"The Yellow River floods and bursts the embankment year after year, and the dam is built high and firm, but the river sand is silted, and it needs to be strengthened and heightened every year, and it is not a way to do it in the long run.
"It doesn't work. The canal is not hydraulically sufficient, if the Yellow River is diverted, how to transport the silver and grain to the north, the original diversion of the Yellow River is to pay silver, according to the minister's view, today's strategy of governing the Yellow River and Yun is still feasible, but the hateful river officials are greedy for ink, and there are so many things that break the embankment when building the dam, and the first to control the river should be corrupt. ”
"The first to control the yellow should be to control the sand, Pan Ji put forward the 'water to attack the sand, store and clear the yellow' as the gist, quite effective, the minister thought that it could be continued, in the Hongze Lake area to increase the embankment, in order to protect the Jiangsu and Zhejiang."
"But this rule of law does not cure the root cause, and the sediment is only pushed upstream to the downstream estuary, but in the long run, it will inevitably shrink the river above the estuary, and there will be a new overflow, and the downstream is all rich land, once it is submerged, the consequences are even more worrying."
"Now that the river is not in Shandong, Henan, Feng, and Pei, but in Xu and Pi, Your Highness might as well go to Xuzhou to have a look and then make a conclusion." Someone suggested.
"According to the minister, His Royal Highness should go to Henan to take a look, and the attack on sand is indeed a symptom rather than a cure, and it should be thought of from the upstream."
In fact, before leaving Beijing, she should have arranged the itinerary for this way, but Ah Wu listened to the meaning of this group of people's discussions, as if Chu Mao had not yet determined the route, so she was even more curious.
Everyone talked about it for a long time before they heard Chu Mao say: "Let's go to Shanxi first." "This is going to the middle and upper reaches of the Yellow River.
When he arrived at the top of Taohuayu, Chu Mao abandoned the boat several times and went ashore, explored the terrain everywhere, and looked for guides in the local area to see the ancient river channel and the tributaries of the Yellow River.
Ah Wu watched from the side, Chu Mao pointed out that Shen Lao had collected the flow map of the Yellow River.
Although the arguments among the accompanying officials became more and more intense, Chu Mao never came to a conclusion. After the last group, the group returned from Hekou Town, passed through Xuzhou in the south, entered Hongze Lake, and entered Jiangsu, and Ah Wu finally got rid of the bitter sea of boats.
"Why does Your Highness want to stop in Huai'an?" Ah Wu was puzzled, Huai'an was the location of the Yamen of the Governor of Caoyun, and Ah Wu was puzzled by why Chu Mao, who led the envoy to govern the river, wanted to get involved in Caoyun.
Chu Mao unfolded the most complete map of the Great Xia Dynasty and smiled at Ah Wu, "Guess." ”
Along the way, Ah Wu originally had some of her own opinions on the method of governing the river, but when she was quarreled with by that group of people, her brain was a little bigger, and she admired Chu Mao's tolerance for them.
Ah Wu looked at the map for a long time, and only then hesitated: "Your Highness really wants to divert the Yellow River, so you have the idea of Cao Yun?" ”
Chu Mao was a little excited about Ah Wu's keenness, "Tell me about it." ”
"When I was in Shanghai, I heard from His Royal Highness about the shipping of the sea, does His Highness want to let the Cao transport to Shanghai be changed to Tianjin by sea, and then the Yellow River can be diverted to the north?" Ah Wu pointed to Shanghai.
Chu Mao took Ah Wu into his arms and rolled to the couch next to him, "You really know how to reward you, Ah Wu?" ”
The author has something to say: Mother Jue: Simao, how can you compare yourself with Second Brother Gu, there is a feeling that you should be thrown away?
Tomorrow Friday, Ma Jue wants to take a day off, and the pressure of work, life and online life has been a bit great recently, so Ma Jue is going to take a break tomorrow. This chapter is also fat, so please forgive me.
Thank you, my white rich beauties.
