Liu Changqing was a pedantic literati.

Shangguan Wenruo advised him not to go to the princess, but where would he listen.

Royal Palace Gardens.

Gu Xue was sitting on a stone bench drinking tea.

"Niangniang, Prime Minister Shi Liu Changqing, Lord Liu asks to see you." Her personal maid Xiaolan reported.

"Liu Changqing?" Hearing this, Gu Xue was obviously stunned, but after thinking about it, she still said, "Let him come over." ”

"Yes." Xiaolan answered.

Not long after, under his guidance, Liu Changqing, dressed in official uniform, walked over quickly, and then knelt on the ground, Shi Li said: "Weichen Liu Changqing, see the princess Niangniang." ”

"Lord Liu doesn't have to be polite, get up and speak." Gu Xue said gently.

"Xie Niangniang." Liu Changqing said, the princess is too beautiful, as a courtier, he didn't dare to stare at it, but stood below, shrunk his shoulders slightly, lowered his head, and looked respectful.

Gu Xue is indeed very beautiful, her beauty is a kind of gentleness and moving.

Seeing that Liu Changqing had gotten up, she smiled slightly, and took the lead in asking, "Lord Liu asked to see the palace today, I don't know what happened?" ”

"That's the kind of." Liu Changqing organized the language, and then told Gu Xue about the matter.

After hearing this, the latter's beautiful eyes moved slightly, and then said with a smile: "According to this, Lord Liu means that he wants to let the palace help and persuade the king." ”

"Yes, Niangniang, you have always been virtuous, and for the sake of the Qin State, you will definitely not sit idly by." Liu Changqing said. Now, the king refutes the ministers and does not back down, and the entire Qin State, if you really want to persuade her, it can only be the princess of Qin.

"This palace doesn't dare to take the name of virtue, Lord Liu has too much reputation." Gu Xue said a word first, but then didn't say anything about this matter, but changed her words and suddenly said:

"This palace remembers that some time ago, Lord Liu wrote a strategy."

I couldn't understand why the princess suddenly changed the topic here, Liu Changqing couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Gu Xue continued: "This policy, this palace by chance, I have carefully read it, and there is a saying in it, based on the current situation of the Qin State and discussing state affairs, one of the weeping people, three of the sobbing people, and the sage of the king, there are still disadvantages of abolishing the government......"

After Gu Xue finished speaking, she looked at Liu Changqing: "That's what you said, right?" ”

"This ......," Liu Changqing swallowed.

"Lord Liu is so talented."

Gu Xue is a beautiful girl, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, everything is fine, with her talent to learn, what kind of article can't be understood.

When Liu Changqing heard this, he immediately knelt down in fright, and said in a trembling voice: "How dare Weichen, just as a courtier, I have to admonish." ”

"Okay, what Lord Liu said is good." Gu Xue said quietly: "If the king is at fault, the minister does not admonish, it is the crime of the minister, and Lord Liu thinks he is a virtuous minister?" Good ministers? ”

"How dare Weichen call himself a mother," Liu Changqing was frightened.

"What about Naotomi?"

"Mother's ......"

"Alright, you get up first." Gu Xue's voice was still calm, and after seeing Liu Changqing trembling up, she stretched out her hand to the opposite side: "Lord Liu, sit down." ”

"I don't dare." Liu Changqing hurriedly said.

"Sit down." Gu Xue repeated.

"This ...... Be. Liu Changqing cautiously sat down on the opposite side.

"Whether it is a virtuous minister or a good minister, in the eyes of this palace, Lord Liu is undoubtedly a loyal minister, the king once said that among the officials of the Qin State, the literati have a backbone, and Liu Changqing must be."

While speaking, Gu Xue sat there, and also personally picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Liu Changqing.

"Niangniang is tormented by Weichen......" Seeing this, the latter was flattered, and hurriedly half stood up and held the teacup with both hands.

"There is a good saying, not in his position, not in his government, Lord Liu believes that this war, the Qin State should not fight again, but the king believes that it is necessary to fight to the end, this is only a difference of opinion, not a difference of position."

Gu Xue continued: "In other words, if the Qin State really withdraws its troops at this time, what does Lord Liu think will happen next? ”

"Our country should rest and recuperate, and in three or five years, its national strength will inevitably increase greatly, and it will try to compete for hegemony again." Liu Changqing said.

Gu Xue shook her head: "Lord Liu thinks so, it's not wrong, but if Qin withdraws his troops, what about the Jin Kingdom?" With their national strength, will they have any big losses? No, instead of losing, the Jin State will take advantage of Qin's lack of strength to destroy Qin again, and they will not give you time to recuperate, and when the time comes, the Qin State will be in danger. ”

"This ......" Liu Changqing didn't know how to answer, he didn't expect that the princess would refute his request in such a way, first put forward his bold strategy, and then appeased him as a loyal minister, and poured him a cup of tea himself.

Gu Xue didn't have any anger or harsh words, she was just calm, after being Princess Qin, her generosity was beyond doubt, how could she still be a little woman.

Seeing that Liu Changqing was silent, she said again:

"This, it should be the king's concern, so this palace said that Lord Liu and the king's position is the same, they are both thinking about the country, but the opinions are different."

"But these are irrelevant, and this palace also believes that it will not discord your monarchs and ministers."

"It's like, if the king asks Lord Liu to supervise the front-line grain and grass now, what will Lord Liu do?"

"Nature goes all out." Liu Changqing said without hesitation.

"Yes, Lord Liu is a loyal minister who dares to give direct advice, but sometimes, don't be too extreme."

"No...... I don't know what Niangniang means, Weichen dares to ask for instructions. Liu Changqing stammered a little.

"I want to see this palace this time, and Lord Liu wants this palace to interfere in politics?" Gu Xue asked lightly.

"Huh?" Hearing this, Liu Changqing suddenly couldn't sit still, and hurriedly said: "Niang Niang Mingjian, how dare Weichen." ”

"But haven't you already done it?"

"This, this, Weichen is guilty!" Liu Changqing knelt down again, he knew how difficult it was to come to see the princess, this is a quiet, gentle and quiet woman, but in words, it can always make you feel pressure.

"Military and political affairs, this palace is a woman, although she is the princess, but how dare she speak, today's matter, this palace should have a chat with Lord Liu, each of them talk about their opinions, adults get up." Gu Xue said again.

"Yes, yes...... Wechen knows his mistake. Liu Changqing swallowed his saliva secretly, and after getting up, he couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat on his forehead with the sleeve of his official uniform.

"The king needs the assistance of a courtier like Lord Liu, and the Qin State is inseparable from a pillar of the country like Lord Liu."

"Niangniang's words, Weichen is embarrassed......"

This conversation between Princess Qin and the minister seemed to be Gu Xue quietly refuting Liu Changqing, but in fact, she was invisibly making Xiao Yuan and Liu Changqing, the monarch and minister, no longer so antagonistic.

This is a woman who is knowledgeable and understands the overall situation.
