Looking at her husband's thoughtful expression, Zhao Qian was already used to it! Since the 13th of last month, the king has completely changed as a person, thinking about problems, and sometimes having unexpected ideas and decisions.

Zhao Qian felt that perhaps, Haotian God had entrusted his dream to the king from the night of the twelfth.

Zhao Xie thought about it for a while, and made a plan to obtain Mongolian horses, and other plans related to it should be changed accordingly. Originally, what was discussed with Li Zuoche was that the time must be advanced to use troops to Yan State within three months.

Today, the officials of the capital who are interested in recommending themselves have all handed over the self-recommendation letters to the Ministry of Officials, and tomorrow Zhao Xie will personally review them, hoping to find talents from them.

To seize the time to discuss with Li Zuoche and change the plan appropriately, Zhao Xie ordered someone to pass on the order to let Li Zuoche enter the palace to meet.

"Qian'er, thank you! Thank you for reminding me! ”

Since crossing last month, Zhao Xie has never called Zhao Qian directly. In the past, Zhao Xie called Zhao Qian "queen".

Zhao Qian is gentle and beautiful, considerate to him, and occasionally helps in official affairs, Zhao Xie loves Zhao Qian very much, unless he is attending some formal occasions, he doesn't want to use the title of queen in private, and feels that the title "Qian'er" is the most appropriate.

Zhao Qian was stunned for a while. First, the king suddenly called himself so; Second, she really reminded the king out of nowhere.

Soon, Zhao Qianfang's heart was happy, she liked the king to call herself so intimately.

"Qian'er, we're all hungry. Let's go and eat! ”

He took Zhao Qian's slender hand and walked towards the dining room.

Even though it has been three months since she got married, Zhao Qian was still happy to be held by her husband like this, she said: "Wang, in the afternoon, the concubine received the news from Kuaima, the nurse has set off from Quyang, and she should be able to arrive in two or three days." ”

At the beginning, she came to her nurse in the name of Zhao Qian, and the news naturally passed to Zhao Qian first.

Zhao Qian said again: "The king, you are thirsty for talent, and the nurse should be able to help!" ”

Her nurse is not an important person in the Mo family, mainly to get to know the people of the Mo family through the nurse.

When he came to the dining room, Zhao Xie was about to order someone to serve the meal.

"The king......" Zhao Qian made a slow gesture, and then said: "Guangwujun works day and night for the imperial court, maybe he hasn't eaten yet, let's wait for the time being, wait for him to come and eat together, are you optimistic?" ”

For this cheap wife, the more Zhao Xie looked at it, the more he liked it, and then asked: "How do you know that Guangwujun works day and night?" ”

Zhao Qian said: "Guangwujun is your most important person, and Zhao Guo can't live without him." The concubine asked Li Yan about him, and Li Yan found people in Guangwujun's mansion to inquire, and learned that since the army returned, Guangwujun had to be busy until midnight before going to bed. He worked hard for the country and had no time to spend with his family and teach his children, so I specially prepared something today to visit Mrs. Li and the two children in his house, and we had dinner together at noon. ”

She actually did these things, Zhao Xie was pleasantly surprised.

As a king, you need to have a virtuous queen to be able to handle national affairs with peace of mind. In Zhao Xie's opinion, Zhao Qian already has the demeanor of a virtuous queen, and she will be a good virtuous helper.

The two sat down in the dining room and waited.

Many things in Zhao Guo already have a clue or plan, and the most lacking thing is talent. Zhao Xie was thinking that papermaking, a job that requires absolute technical secrecy, maybe Zhao Qian could help take care of it, if he couldn't even trust his wife, who else could he trust.

"You all stand down!"

"Yes!"

The chamberlains and ladies withdrew from the dining room.

Seeing her husband's move, Zhao Qian knew that she had something serious to discuss.

Zhao Xie said: "Qian'er, Haotian God has taught me a skill that can not only make money, but also benefit the world. ”

Zhao Qianxi said: "King, what kind of skill is it?" ”

Zhao Xie explained in detail what paper is.

Zhao Qian was even more happy, and said happily: "King, after the paper is made, no one will use the bamboo slips anymore!" As long as the skills are not leaked, we will make a large profit every month every year by making paper. The more abundant the treasury, the more soldiers can be recruited. ”

Zhao Qian was extremely excited, Haotian God's ability is really too great, and it is a blessing for her husband to be able to get his help, and it is also her blessing.

She couldn't wait to ask, "King, how is paper made?" ”

Zhao Xie said: "It is necessary to select the raw materials first, and then go through the processes of cooking, rinsing, pounding, pulping, scooping, pressing and drying. ”

Zhao Qian asked again: "What raw materials do you want to use?" How is each process done? ”

Zhao Xie bought a pass first and said, "You'll know when the time comes!" The key point is not to let others steal the school. Qian'er, when I can't keep busy, I need you to help me take care of the paper workshop. ”

The king refused to elaborate further, and Zhao Qian pursed her mouth slightly, after all, she was only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman.

However, Zhao Qian was not angry with her husband, she was happy to share her husband's worries.

After a while, Li Zuoche arrived.

Under normal circumstances, the king and his courtiers eat together, and it is inconvenient for the female dependents to be present, so Zhao Qian got up and was about to leave, and wanted to go to another place to eat alone.

Zhao Xie said: "Qian'er, you also have a meal together!" You don't have to see Guangwujun outside! ”

Soon, the waiter took Li Zuoche to the dining room.

"Greetings to my king and queen!"

Li Zuoche waved at the two of them.

Zhao Qian said: "Guangwujun, you haven't eaten yet, right?" ”

Li Zuoche replied: "The queen, the minister was about to return to the house, and the king was summoned, so he came immediately." ”

Zhao Xie said: "It's just in time, the widow and the queen are also preparing to eat." The widow has summoned you to discuss important matters, come, come, and eat together! Eat first and then discuss the matter. ”

The palace maid brought the food, and the three of them ate at three tables.

During the meal, the three of them did not talk about business, mainly because of the short time in the family.

After drinking half a bowl of soup, Zhao Qian said: "Guangwujun, Ling Gongzi is a material that can be made, and he will definitely be able to become a pillar of the court like you one day." ”

Today in the Li Mansion, Zhao Qian learned about Li Zhi's situation.

Li Zuodao: "The queen has won the award, the dog has liked martial arts and the art of war since he was a child, and after this period of time, I want to guide him well, hoping that he can contribute to the court when he becomes an adult." ”

About half an hour later, after dinner, Zhao Qian left, and Zhao Xie took Li Zuoche to the study.

As soon as he stepped into the study, Li Zuoche was attracted by the large map, holding an oil lamp to illuminate the map more clearly, and carefully examining every part of the map.

The way and accuracy of the map drawing opened Li Zuoche's eyes; There were many, many more names than he had ever heard of; There are many places in the map that he did not know before.

"King, is this map drawn with the help of God Haotian?"

As long as there are novelties and phenomena in King Zhao, people, including Li Zuoche, will naturally think of immortals. The ancients themselves were superstitious, and many things that Zhao Xie knew were explained by borrowing the name of the gods.
