Chapter 139: Spend the New Year Together
I saw that the dumplings on the plate were wrapped by her into various exquisite animal head shapes, including a little rabbit head, a little sheep's head, and a little kitten head, Lu Yuan couldn't bear to eat it.
Sun Shaoqing smiled proudly and said, "Brother Yuan, do you think my bag looks good?" As he spoke, he dipped a rabbit head dumpling in the dipping sauce and sandwiched it into Lu Yuan's bowl.
"Beautiful." The corners of Lu Yuan's mouth twitched, and he ate the rabbit head dumplings in one bite, I don't know if it is a mental effect, I always feel that the taste is strange.
"Is it delicious?" Sun Shaoqing asked, it took her five days to hire a chef to learn the craft, just to impress Brother Yuan today.
"It's delicious." Lu Yuan smiled, suddenly stood up, and said, "It's time to light fireworks!" After saying that, he took the prepared fireworks and ran to the courtyard.
"Brother, let me do some!" Lu Yutong shouted, and as soon as the words fell, he jumped behind Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan handed her the ignition of the fire, took a few steps back, Lu Yutong covered his ears with one hand, lit the fire with the other, turned around and jumped into Lu Yuan's arms after lighting it, and then turned to look at the fireworks.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! After a few muffled explosions, fireworks flew into the air with red sparks, and after a few crisp sounds, several beautiful flowers bloomed in the night sky.
Qin Youyu and Sun Shaoqing also came out of the house and stood beside Lu Yuan, Sun Shaoqing looked at the night sky and said softly: "Brother Yuan, every year today in the future, can you accompany Qing'er like today?" ”
"Yes." Lu Yuan stretched out his hand to hug her willow waist, and the other hand hugged Qin Youyu's waist, and said:
"Qing'er, I promised Yu'er to let her be a female general, and when this promise is fulfilled, I will marry her, I have an agreement with her first, so I plan to wait for this agreement to be completed, and then marry the two of you together, do you think about it?"
Sun Shaoqing said in a low voice: "As long as you are willing to marry me, I am willing to wait for as long as possible, but isn't Sister Qin already a female general?" ”
"It won't count until the day I can reveal her identity as a woman."
"Brother Yuan, do you plan to compete for the world in the future?" Sun Shaoqing asked quietly.
"Yes, I have been coerced by Ning Guohou to rebel, and I don't want to be under him all the time in the future, so I-"
"You don't have to explain, whatever you have to do, I will support you." Sun Shaoqing said hurriedly.
Lu Yuan smiled and nodded, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and said in a condensed voice: "Just wait for the news from Jinling, as long as She County is promoted to the government, I will have the qualifications to compete in the world." ”
Now that the population of She County has exceeded 10,000, and the application for promotion to the government has been played, whether the imperial court will agree or not, Lu Yuan has no power to influence, and now he can only look at Ning Guohou's means.
Sun Shaoqing let out a low "um" and leaned his head on Lu Yuan's shoulder, but Qin Youyu never spoke.
Turning his head, Lu Yuan found that Qin Youyu's face was flushed under the fireworks, and he was closing his eyes with a light smile on his face.
"Yu'er, what are you thinking?"
"Nothing, I'm happy." Qin Youyu said softly, she still remembered that when her father was alive, it was he who took herself and her younger brother for the New Year, and now this man has become Lu Yuan, and he has replaced his father and become the person she can rely on the most.
Lu Yuan's gaze slowly swept over the three women, quietly feeling the happiness at this moment, only wishing that time could stay at this moment forever.
……
Bao University for eight years, the fifth day of January.
Guo Wei proclaimed himself emperor and established the state of Zhou.
In a gorgeous palace, one person sits, dozens of people stand, the palace is composed of one hundred and sixty nanmu as the main body, the golden glazed tile paves the roof, the two sides are towering and the dragon golden laurel tree, the palace is carved delicately on both sides of the golden platform, and there are incense burners, incense pavilions, candlesticks.
Under the high platform, there are four columns of people, except for the first person on the left hand who wears light yellow clothes, the rest of the people are wearing purple official uniforms, and the back row are wearing red official uniforms, on the high platform, a man in a yellow robe is looking at a piece of paper.
This is the main hall of the Tang Dynasty, and the man in the yellow robe is Li Jing, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who does not know that a terrible enemy has appeared in the north at this moment, and is reading a poem:
"The wind and willows are shaking and there are no definite branches, and the balcony is cloudy and rainy.
He was dusty and kept his old dance clothes. ”
"What a song 'Book and Song Prostitute Mud Gold Belt', Han Aiqing is really a romantic gentleman, which makes me envious." Li Jing exclaimed.
An elegant-looking purple-clothed official stepped out of the ranks and said with a smile: "This poem is too stingy, how can it be worthy of His Majesty's 'Ten Thousand Points of Light to Break Gold'!" ”
After Li Jing heard this, he was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Wang Degong, I ordered someone to include Han Qing's poem and my words. ”
"The slave obeys." A eunuch beside him said respectfully.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Han Xizai bowed down.
"Ladies and gentlemen, how are you doing with the New Year?" Li Jing asked with a smile.
A young man standing at the front of the second column on the left raised his voice and said: "With your father, the emperor, your eloquence and hard work, and the assistance of the ministers, our Tang soldiers are strong and strong, and the people have enough food and clothing, and everyone is naturally doing well." And recently we have won Chu land again, and Erchen believes that it will not be long before our Tang Kingdom will be able to dominate the world under the leadership of our father! ”
This man is Li Hongyi, the eldest son of Emperor Li Jing, although he is young, his momentum is extraordinary, and his face is full of fortitude.
Seeing this, the man in light yellow clothes who was the first on the left hand frowned slightly, he was Li Jingsui, the younger brother of Li Jing, who had an extremely close relationship with Li Jing, and was named the emperor's younger brother and settled in the East Palace.
Li Jing said lightly: "How did I hear that there are people rebelling there in Chudi, what's going on?" ”
"Father, this is normal, after all, the Chu people have followed the Ma family for decades, and it will take time for them to naturalize my Tang Kingdom, and the sons believe that General Bian is here, and there will be no big waves there." Li Hongyi said.
Li Jing nodded, and asked again: "Guo Wei in the north has rebelled, and now the Han Kingdom will be chaotic, this will be our best chance to enter the Central Plains, I have ordered Qinghuai Jiedu to make Liu Renzhen, Jianwu Jiedu to make Huang Fuhui, and Baoxin Jiedu to make Liu Yanzhen gather troops at the border to prepare, do you Aiqing have a good strategy for the Northern Expedition?" ”
"Father, Erchen thinks that now the Han State is fighting with Guo Wei with all its might, and now is a good opportunity for the Northern Expedition, Erchen is willing to lead the forbidden army of 50,000, meet with the three Jiedu envoys, break Kaifeng in one fell swoop, and take the Central Plains for his father!" Li Hongyi said loudly.
"You have this heart, and I am very pleased to my father." Li Jing smiled and said, "Brother Huang, what do you think?" ”
Li Jingsui said in a deep voice: "Brother Huang, my brother thinks that there is no good opportunity yet, Guo Wei and the main force of the Han army are likely to have not fought yet, and we will go on a northern expedition now, which may allow Guo Wei to reap the benefits of the fisherman." ”
"The emperor's words are reasonable, then let's wait."
Li Hongyi hurriedly said: "Father, don't miss the opportunity!" ”
"Needless to say." Li Jing said lightly: "Do other Aiqing still have something to play?" ”
After discussing several major matters in a row, Feng Yansi felt that the time had come, and he glanced at Zhang Guangzuo, the head of the household.
Zhang Guangzuo came out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has a book. ”
"Zhang Aiqing said it."
Zhang Guangzuo said: "In Shezhou, there is a county whose household registration has exceeded 10,000, and the county order has been folded to request that the county be promoted to the government. ”
Li Jing's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a smile: "This is a good thing, my father issued this policy back then to encourage officials in various places to develop the population rapidly, what do you think Aiqing?" ”
"I think it's possible." Feng Yansi echoed it, and several other people besides him seconded it.
Jiang Tong, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, was just about to speak out against it, but was stopped by Li Hongyi with his eyes, so he took back the foot that he stepped out of.
Li Jing knocked his fingers on the desk a few times, and said lightly: "Zhun Gong, as long as the household department verifies that it is true, it will be promoted to the government of She County, and it will be called Hui'an Mansion." ”
"Your Majesty, if Shexian is promoted to the government, then the original Shezhou will be canceled as usual." Zhang Guangzuo said.
Li Jing adjusted his sitting posture, supported himself on the armrest with one hand, supported his forehead, and said lightly: "It is decreed that Jiang Huai, the former Shezhou Thorn History, will be reappointed as the Xinzhou Thorn History, and the original Xinzhou officials will be transferred to Changsha Mansion, and the officials of the Shezhou Thorn History Mansion will be transferred to Xinzhou, and Bian Hao will no longer have to serve as the Xinzhou Thorn History, and concentrate on rectifying Chudi."
The county seats in Shezhou are all assigned to Hui'an Prefecture, and the governor is held by the county magistrate of Shexian County, and other official positions in the prefecture can be promoted from the county government of Shexian County as much as possible. ”
Zhang Guangzuo should have given his hand.
Seeing Li Jing's attitude, Feng Yansi faintly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell where the problem was, just as he was immersed in thinking, Wang Degong's voice of "scattering the dynasty" came from his ears.
After leaving the main hall, Feng Yansi found that two eunuchs were talking in the ears of the East Palace and King Yan, and then the two followed the eunuchs, and he felt even more uneasy in his heart, and hurriedly returned to the palace.
The Imperial Study.
When Li Hongyi and Li Jingsui entered the room, Li Jing was writing something on a screen, Li Hongyi looked at the screen, and saw that all the words written on it were "his heart can be punished".
Li Jing continued to write, and said lightly: "I have already given Feng Yansi many chances, why does he not know how to restrain his younger brother and prefer to oppose me?" ”
