Such little leather boots are so beautiful.

When Princess Huanyu saw it, she forgot that she was still angry.

"Husband, these boots were given to me?" Princess Huanyu asked.

"That's natural, if it's not for the lady, can't it be given to Mama Zhang and Mama Li." Fan Yu quipped.

Princess Huanyu glared at Fan Yu and said, "You dare." ”

Without waiting for Fan Yu to speak, he snatched the leather boots from his hands.

The waists of these small leather boots reach only to the calf, and the sides are open and inlaid with copper rings that can be tightened with cowhide ropes.

As soon as Princess Huanyu put on her boots, she raised her feet to watch. Now the new pair of leather boots on his feet looks much more atmospheric than the original gold silk shoes. Although there is no decorative pattern on it, the glossy leather surface and meticulous workmanship show a simple and delicate beauty.

"The lady can stand up and take two steps." Fan Yu held Princess Huanyu's hand and said.

As soon as Princess Huanyu stood up, she found that she seemed to have grown taller.

"Ah, husband, I'm almost as tall as you." Huanyu stretched out his hand and compared it on the top of his head, which had reached Fan Yu's forehead.

Fan Yu smiled: "This is natural, the heel at the back, but an inch and a half of hardwood is added, and then inlaid with steel nails." It is both tall and wear-resistant, and when the lady walks, there will be a crisp sound on the stone floor. ”

Princess Huanyu took a few steps with her legs open, and sure enough, it was as her husband said.

"If the concubines of the official family see it, I'm afraid it won't be red-eyed." Huanyu laughed and said: "Wearing these boots, the height and legs are even more slim, I'm afraid no woman will not like it." The husband will please the woman. ”

Fan Yu laughed twice to cover up the past, it was not easy to accept this. The heel of these boots was only an inch and a half, which was a common occurrence in later generations. If you make a pair of haters, I'm afraid you won't want to make women crazy.

At this time, some families in the Great Song Dynasty had already let women bind their feet, and something as vicious as a three-inch golden lotus had also appeared. If these women's shoes are launched, they form a trend through the business model and are sought after by everyone, I am afraid that they can offset the bad habit of foot wrapping a lot.

There were still two pairs of leather shoes left, which were made according to the size of his own feet, and Fan Yu put them on by himself, standing with Princess Huanyu, and couldn't help laughing.

The clothes on his body are still the right brocade robe, but the shoes on his feet have been replaced with leather shoes of later generations. If it is placed in the future generations, this must be the picture of Piercing Bang Film and Television. Now that such a match seems to have no sense of disobedience.

When Fan Yu and Princess Huanyu were looking at each other, the little eunuch in the house came to report that Duan Shaolian was visiting.

Duan Shaolian is a member of the Criminal Department and a member of the Zhiji Xian Academy, and he is also valued by the official Zhao Zhen.

When Fan Yu heard Duan Shaolian's visit, he remembered, isn't this the envoy who sent the Liao State?

Ordered Duan Shaolian to be invited to the main hall for tea, Fan Yu greeted Princess Huanyu, and then tidied up his clothes and went to see the envoy.

As soon as he entered the main hall, Fan Yu saw a middle-aged man, sitting on the guest seat and drinking tea.

Duan Shaolian looked thin, and his goatee was slightly gray.

Seeing Fan Yu coming, he arched his hand to him and said, "Duan Shaolian has seen An Lehou. ”

Fan Yu also hurriedly returned the salute, "Duan Zhige's visit is not welcomed. Presumably, Duan Zhige came here to envoy the Liao State. ”

Duan Shaolian's official position is not high, but he has the identity of the Zhiji Xianyuan, so Fan Yu calls it Zhige.

"An Lehou guessed right, this official is here for this matter." Duan Shaolian nodded and said: "The official family appointed An Lehou as the deputy envoy, and this official has been announced by Prime Minister Lu. Therefore, I came to pay a visit, so as not to go out of Beijing and not know each other. was looked at by the Liao envoy, and it must not be embarrassing. ”

Fan Yu smiled and stretched out his hand, invited Duan Shaolian to sit down, and he also sat down on the main seat.

"Duan Zhige is thoughtful, and the news is fast." Fan Yu said modestly: "If it weren't for the fact that I still had some things to do in my hands, it should have been me who went to visit Duan Zhige." ”

Duan Shaolian waved his hand and said: "Hou Ye doesn't have to be polite, in terms of identity, Hou Ye is more valuable than me." It's just that Hou Ye is the deputy envoy, and I am the main envoy. Moreover, I also heard that the Hou Ye was working in the construction courtyard, and wanted to use the weapon craftsman to make civilian things. Hou Ye did this to save public money, which was a good intention. ”

The other party's words made Fan Yu listen, as if he had not finished speaking.

"I listened to Duan Zhige's words, it seems that he can teach me?" Fan Yu smiled and asked, "Could it be that Duan Zhige has a better idea." ”

Duan Shaolian nodded, and said unceremoniously: "What An Lehou did was to compete with the people for profit. With the size of the military weapons manufacturing institute and the creation of civilian things, I am afraid that many workshops of the people will be difficult to maintain. Moreover, the foundation of the Arsenal should be to concentrate on the manufacture of weapons. How can it be that because of the economy of public money, it will not be able to do its job? Also, although it seems to save public money, in fact, it is profitable. In the long run, I am afraid that it will break people's hearts. Zi said: 'The gentleman is said to be righteous, and the villain is said to be profitable' and said: 'There is no desire for speed, and there is no small profit.' If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, and if you see small profits, you can't do big things'. Therefore, I hope that An Lehou can see righteousness and forget profit, and persuade people to do more benevolent and righteous deeds. ”

Fan Yu listened to the other party's words and quoted scriptures, and he also knew nothing about it. But I also understand most of the other party's meaning, that is, it is not good to pursue profits. This shows that Duan Shaolian is a corrupt Confucian, and he doesn't understand the way of economy at all, and only knows how to use books.

In general, it would be difficult to talk to such people. At least Bao Zheng will still decide the case, and what are the strengths of this Shaolian, Fan Yu really doesn't know. If it weren't for the envoy together, there would be a short time to get along, and Fan Yu wouldn't bother to pay attention to him.

But isn't that about working together, and you have to be patient.

"Duan Zhige is serious, how can this matter be talked about by the villain." Fan Yu said calmly: "This is for the benefit of the country, to make up for the use of the hospital." If it does not make people profitable, how can the craftsman use his life? The craftsmen are villains, but they are not bad people. The people of Shengdou are villains, and the gentlemen are the princes of the court. The public has no worries about food and clothing, and it can be the righteousness of the family and the country. And if the villains don't pursue profits, won't they die of starvation? ”

Duan Shaolian couldn't help but shake his head when he heard Fan Yu's words, "An Lehou is not very old, and he actually misinterpreted the Book of Confucius Sheng. A saint should be a person of noble character, and a villain should be a traitor. Clever words, fresh and benevolent. I advise An Lehou not to do this, for fear of losing benevolence. The so-called enlightened people have much help, and those who have lost the Tao have little help. If there is something in the future, I am afraid that there are few people who are willing to help An Lehou. ”

This surnamed Duan is stubborn in Fan Yu's opinion. Of course, maybe the other party sees themselves this way.

Fan Yu was disgusted by this little chatter, and the other party also said that he was clever and eloquent, which made him very unhappy.

"Shut up!" Fan Yu made a look of panic, stood up violently and said, "Duan Zhige, you don't want to harm me." You can eat rice, but don't talk nonsense. And you want to persuade me to be benevolent and righteous, and you want me to be helped by the Tao, how can you and I, as human ministers, discuss such things? In the next step, is Duan Zhige going to let me 'consolidate the country without the danger of mountains and streams, and the world without the benefit of military revolution'. ”

Those who have attained the Tao help these words, which is a sentence in "Mencius: Gongsun Chouxia" quoted by Duan Shaolian. But the previous sentence of this sentence is what Fan Yu said, such as "solidifying the country" and "mighting the world".

Although Fan Yu didn't know much, when he was in school in his previous life, he remembered this text deeply. Because he couldn't carry it at that time, the teacher didn't let him go home, so now Fan Yu is grateful to the teacher.
