Chapter 36: Construction Projects

After listening to Zhang Duanshuang's words, Yu Panxi smiled and said, "I just don't go out often, how can I be as lazy as you say." ”

Zhang Duanshuang smiled with some teasing, and said, "I know, it's not your general who takes you seriously." ”

Yu Panxi's face turned red, and she was about to hit her, but she was wrapped around her waist with a rope to measure her waist, and she leaned forward and was pulled back by the embroidery girl.

Seeing this, Zhang Duanshuang immediately laughed, and a kind of servant next to him couldn't help laughing, but he didn't dare to laugh so loudly with her.

Yu Panxi saw everyone laughing like this, so she stomped her feet angrily, but after a while, she couldn't help but laugh with them.

When the servants all retreated, and only a silver bell was left by Yu Panxi's side, Zhang Duanshuang said to Yu Panxi with a straight face: "Have you heard about the recent events in the palace?" ”

Yu Panxi didn't deliberately inquire into the affairs of the palace, seeing that she was so serious, she calculated the time, and said: "You say, the matter of building a civil engineering?" ”

Zhang Duanshuang nodded and sneered lightly, "The saint is really dizzy today, the war has just ended, and it is when the treasury is empty, he is about to build a large number of buildings." ”

Seeing that it was indeed this matter, Yu Panxi also had a faint sarcasm on his face, and he did not hide anything in the face of people like Zhang Duanshuang who shared the same hatred, "The saint is a person who indulges in pleasure, how can he understand the suffering of the world." ”

Yu Panxi was like this, which made Zhang Duanshuang smile lightly, and there was a burst of happiness in her heart, it was not that she alone could not see Mo Baozhou's personality, and she was even more intimate with Yu Panxi.

It doesn't matter if the two of them talk about the court, but after all, if they say something rebellious, the two of them will stop and won't say much.

Yu Panxi led Zhang Duanshuang to see the peony picture she embroidered, Zhang Duanshuang saw that her stitches were fine and neat, and the embroidered peony was lifelike, so he naturally praised it.

She didn't have this kind of craftsmanship herself, so she insisted on pestering Yu Panxi to embroider a handkerchief for her, and when she saw Yu Panxi nodding, she gave up.

In return, she came to the piano and played a recently composed tune, the tune was elegant, and it sounded like the murmuring of water under the moon, which made people fascinated, and Yu Panxi stroked her palms and praised it.

Zhang Duanshuang saw that she liked it, and he was very happy, and he had already introduced Yu Panxi as a confidant in his heart.

The two embroidered and listened to the music, sat idle for a long time, Zhang Duanshuang saw that it was not early, and then got up to say goodbye.

Xiao Chumo also came back with her.

Yu Panxi greeted him, took off the light armor on his body, and asked, "Why did you come back so early today?" ”

"Nothing in the army." Xiao Chumo took off the chain mail on his waist and turned to sit at the table.

Yu Panxi poured him a glass of water, only then did he see that his face was a little bad, sat down beside him, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Chumo looked worried when he saw her, so he no longer concealed it, and said: "The emperor said that he was going to build a palace in the early court today, and several adults objected, and the emperor didn't say anything, but not long after the dynasty was dispersed, he let people look at feng shui, as if it was imperative." Several adults entered the palace to persuade each other, but they were all forcibly sent back, and one of the ministers still injured his arm between pushing. In the afternoon, he sent a letter to me, saying that they would write together to stop the emperor. ”

As he spoke, his brows furrowed, and he looked distressed.

Seeing him like this, Yu Panxi understood a little and asked, "You don't want to get involved in this matter?" ”

Broken by her words, Xiao Chumo sighed lightly and said: "I am a military attachΓ©, and I can't say anything about the affairs of the DPRK and China, and the emperor may not listen to me, not to mention, with my understanding of the emperor, even if the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty oppose it, I am afraid that he will also insist on going his own way." That being the case, I really don't want the DPRK and China to make a big deal out of this matter. ”

From his words, Yu Panxi heard a deeper meaning, so he said: "Are you afraid that the emperor will use this matter as a guide to exchange blood for the ministers in the court?" ”

Xiao Chumo saw that she actually understood what he was thinking, and he was surprised and very moved, so he held her hand, "Panxi, everyone in the world only knows that your one-handed piano skills are the best in the world, but they don't see that you have a delicate heart. There is only one suffering in the world that you can understand. ”

His words were full of amazement, and Yu Panxi could naturally understand that Xiao Chumo was an ambitious person, which could be seen from his resolute enlistment in the army as the prince of the Hou Mansion.

However, the emperor indulged in lust and mediocrity, and many of the people in the court were entrusted by the emperor, thinking that they only knew the old ministers who were foolish and loyal, and there were many discords with his political views.

Although he has become a third-rank general, he still has a sense of uselessness and depression as a hero.

"I'm your wife, I should know you and understand you, what's the point?" Yu Panxi shook his hand and said, "No matter what you decide to do, I will support you and advance and retreat with you." ”

Xiao Chumo clenched her hand and nodded heavily, many words had been said too many times, there was no need to say any more, he put her hand on his chest, and continued: "I see that the emperor has already been dissatisfied with many courtiers who have ruled him over the years, if the balance is broken because of this matter, under the turbulence, it will only be a loss for both sides, and it will even shake the foundation of the country." This is absolutely unacceptable. ”

Hearing that he was thinking far-reaching, all of them were for the country and the people, Yu Panxi also sighed slightly in his heart, and said to him: "I think there will be a compromise in this matter, you don't have to ask, things will soon turn around." ”

"I am afraid that the people are suffering from the construction of a large number of buildings, so how can I really sit idly by?" Xiao Chumo was in a dilemma and was extremely distressed.

In fact, he had already guessed correctly, no matter how the courtiers objected, Shuiyun Palace would be built in the end, and it was because of Xiao Chumo's strong opposition at that time that Mo Baozhou hated him, and because he was getting more and more powerful, Yu Panxi pretended to marry him and killed people.

Yu Panxi didn't think deeply at all, lest she remembered Xiao Chumo's death at that time, and forcibly pulled her mind to this matter.

"I know that you can't bear the people to suffer, but if it really starts as you say, it will still be the people who will suffer." Yu Panxi said again: "Although your grade is not high now, but in recent years, only you have led the troops to fight, and several old generals are also extremely important to you, and many adults in the court are also very convinced of your words. It's better not to say much tomorrow morning, just see how things will develop, and then it's not too late to deal with it. ”

Xiao Chumo remembered the courtiers' attitude towards him recently, and felt that she was reasonable, so he nodded and responded, just waiting for the morning court tomorrow to make plans.
