Xue Chuyu took a flying horse and went to the martial law guard near the princess's line. Looking at Princess Taiping's magnificent deeds, Xue Chuyu's thick eyebrows were deeply contemporary, and he secretly thought: It is rumored that the prince of Lantian in the customs is too light in wine, but when I see it today, it is not as rumored. Now that the facts are in front of him, Princess Taiping will tie the knot with him sooner or later, he relies on the hope of the Xue family's ancestors, the respect of the horses, and the convenience of the royal family, so why worry about not being able to make friends. Ten years ago, after his father was defeated in the Battle of Dafeichuan, he was relegated to Xiangzhou, Lingnan, and has not returned. My Xue family has been in decline for many years, and it is no longer the hero of the year. Why did Xue Shao ...... You chose our two brothers?

Xue Chuyu was puzzled.

According to the current words, Xue Shao will be a "potential stock", he took the initiative to throw an olive branch to the Xue Chuyu brothers who live in a small official residence, Xue Chuyu has no reason to refuse, it is a boost that ordinary people can't look forward to. But Xue Chuyu had a thorn in his heart.

This thorn is the princess of Taiping who is pampered by the world.

Ascending to power through nepotism is shameful in the eyes of many aristocrats and Confucian scholars who flaunt their arrogance; Xue Chuyu is young and arrogant, and he has the generosity and enthusiasm of a natural martial artist, so he despises such behavior!

It is true that Xue Shao gave Xue Chuyu a good impression, he gave him a life-saving grace as soon as he met at the beginning of the year, and his demeanor and speech were not as frivolous and buoyant as rumored, and his mind was quite impressive. But this does not mean that Xue Chuyu can pull out the thorn in his heart at once.

"How's that good?" Xue Chuyu patted his forehead in distress, "That's it, my brother has always been quite knowledgeable, so I will ask my brother to decide!" ”

Night falls.

In Princess Taiping's hunting camp, many bonfires were raised to roast prey. This is one of the established procedures for hunting. At the end of the day's hunting, it is time to compare the rewards for the achievements and deeds, and at the same time share the prey and drink and talk happily. However, during the day, such an incident as the "attack on the princess" occurred, and a dark cloud hung over the entire camp. Although there are not many people who know about this matter at present, Princess Taiping has been hiding in the Xingyuan tent and has not come out, and the leaders Xue Chuyu and Linlang do not give orders, and the sergeants and shooters naturally dare not celebrate the banquet privately.

It was cold in the hunting camp, which was supposed to be full of joy.

Xue Shao'an sat in his tent, ate some meals sent by the sergeant at random, and read by candlelight.

I read a book of Zhenguan Famous Minister Wei Zheng, Yu Shinan, Chu Liang and others co-edited "Group Book Governance Essentials". This book is based on the works of the predecessors of the Six Classics, the Four Histories and the Hundred Schools of Thought, from the beginning of the Five Emperors to the Jin Dynasty, and cites the classics from it to provide advice and theoretical basis for the governance of Emperor Li Shimin of Kuangzheng Taizong.

Read history wisely. This book is very meaningful for the rule of Zhenguan.

Xue Shao's intention in reading this book is to learn more about the political system of the Tang Dynasty and people's behavioral concepts. Although he learned a lot of knowledge about this era from history books and An Xiaorou, history has always been a little girl who dresses up as anyone, and there are a thousand different opinions about the same era and the same historical figure, and a thousand people. The history of the Tang Dynasty has been handed down for more than 1,000 years, and many historical facts will deviate from each other with the migration of the times and the change of people's values.

Therefore, if you really want to understand this era, especially the current political system, it is necessary for Xue Shao to read more political books that are of great significance to this era.

In addition to "Qun Shu Zhi Yao", Xue Shao's study also has "Yonghui Law Shu" and "Chen Rail", "Bureaucratic New Commandment", "Music Book" and "Shaoyang Zhengfan" compiled by Wu Zetian's private think tank Beimen Scholar and others.

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. To defeat the enemy, you need to know at least the enemy first. Xue Shao does not believe at all that a brain from the 21st century alone can be invincible in this era, and this idea should only exist in the minds of some "utopians" who do not understand history.

Understanding this history, being part of it, and being above it is the best strategy.

The night is getting darker.

Xue Shao practiced Baduan Mian and was about to undress and sleep, when a female voice came from outside the tent, "Master Xue, Her Royal Highness the princess is invited!" ”

"Here we are." Xue Shao couldn't help but smile, in the middle of the night, what does the little princess want to do?

The one who came to invite Xue Shao was Linlang. At a glance, Xue Shao couldn't tell if she was a sister or a younger sister, but he felt that the eyes she cast over were a little strange.

"Why is Miss Linlang looking at me like this?" Xue Shao simply used this "general name" for her.

The palace maid didn't care, hugged a fist and lowered her eyebrows and said, "Lang'er thank Gongzi Xue for saving his life!" ”

"Oh, so you're a sister." Xue Shao smiled, "With a lot of effort, you don't have to worry about it—let's go!" ”

"Childe, please!" Lang'er didn't say much, led the way, and led Xue Shao to a bonfire.

Princess Taiping was roasting a hare with a wooden fork, which was already charred and blackened, and her face was covered with black ash, and her appearance was very funny.

"Xue Shao, are you here?" Princess Taiping seemed to be in a good mood, and held up the black thing with a smile, "This palace has roasted rabbits, please come and eat it!" ”

"Uh...... Are Her Royal Highness the princesses sure that this is a rabbit? Xue Shao smiled bitterly, this is clearly a piece of charcoal!

"Hehe, it's a little ugly, but it's also a piece of the palace's heart!" Princess Taiping smiled a little embarrassedly, "You go on!" ”

"Okay!" Xue Shao took it and glanced at it with a sad face, "I really can't eat it." ”

"How can you do that!" Princess Taiping pursed her mouth angrily, "This palace has been roasted for an hour!" ”

"Let's roast a rabbit for the princess to eat!" Xue Shao said with a smile.

"So what about this?" Princess Taiping pointed to the lump of charcoal and said reluctantly, "This palace has really been baked for an hour!" ”

As the princess of a country, it is rare to spend an hour roasting a rabbit for others. Xue Shao smiled, tore open a layer of charred black on the surface, tore off a small piece of rabbit meat, threw it into his mouth and chewed it.

This...... It's not unpalatable.

"It tastes pretty good." Xue Shao said with a smile, "But Wechen has already eaten a lot before, this roast rabbit, let Wechen keep it as a souvenir!" ”

"Okay!" Princess Taiping finally laughed, the corners of her mouth grinned, and two small dimples were exposed.

Xue Shao was a little dazed for a while, the way she smiled, especially the two small dimples, really looked like An Xiaorou......

"You...... Why are you looking at Hongu like this? Princess Taiping was stared straight at by Xue Shao, staring at her like a deer, and the flames of the bonfire were reflected on her face, which became more and more red and gorgeous.

"Your Royal Highness, you are beautiful." Xue Shao smiled.

"......" Princess Taiping was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt a little at a loss, turned her head to look around in a panic, and picked up a wooden fork for barbecue, "You said, roast a rabbit for the palace to eat!" ”

"Okay." Xue Shao laughed, Princess Taiping was shy, but it was not interesting.

"Don't laugh!"

"Why?"

"You laugh so nastyly!"

Xue Shao picked up the skewered hares, sat on the soft brocade couch laid out by the palace maids, and began to roast on the bonfire. In the past ten years of military career, survival in the wild has almost become a part of life, and the craft of barbecue, not to mention walking alone, is at least familiar with the road.

It's just a pity that Datang doesn't have chili peppers, and there is a lot less flavor.

Princess Taiping also took a couch and sat down next to Xue Shao, with a pair of smart and beautiful big eyes reflecting the flames of the bonfire, shining.

Equal. The palace maids and eunuchs saw it in their eyes, but they didn't dare to say much...... The princess took the initiative herself!

For Princess Taiping, who grew up in the palace since she was a child, the magnificent palace is like a delicate birdcage, and no matter how beautiful and noble she is, she is just a canary in a cage. It's rare to fly out of the birdcage today and come to this fertile field of freedom, around the bonfire with the stars and moon on your head, watching a man roast rabbits next to you. This is a commonplace thing for many ordinary women, but for Princess Taiping, it is a luxury.

What is even more rare is a kind of spiritual release. There are strict prohibitions and rules in the palace, even if Princess Taiping is the pearl of the two saints, she has to be bound by a lot.

What kind of scenery you can see when you stand at any height, it also means that you can't enjoy the ease and comfort of walking on flat ground.

"Xue Shao, your skills in roasting rabbits are very skillful." Princess Taiping stared at the hare that was gradually bleeding oil, and couldn't help but smack her lips, "Did you often travel to hunt in the past?" ”

"Occasionally." Xue Shao smiled.

"You...... Do you often travel with women, go on long trips, and shoot hunting? Princess Taiping asked again, this time she turned her face and stared at Xue Shao seriously.

Xue Shao was still as calm as water, smiling faintly, "Occasionally." ”

"Can't you just say one more word?" Princess Taiping seemed to be a little angry, "This palace knows that there must be many women around you!" ”

Ho, this is jealousy?

Xue Shao couldn't help but smile, and turned his head to meet Princess Taiping's pair of dark eyes that flickered with different lights, "Where did Her Royal Highness the princess know?" ”

"Don't ask, anyway...... This palace is the way of knowledge! Princess Taiping pursed her lips, turned her head to stare at the bonfire, and clasped her knees with her hands, as if she was sulking.

Xue Shaowei smiled to himself, turned the wooden fork of the roast rabbit, and said, "In the past, there were indeed many women around Weichen. But now, no. ”

"Why?" Princess Taiping finally heard it, and she wanted to hear the "gossip" topic the most.

"Because, I met Princess Taiping." Xue Shao turned his face and looked at Princess Taiping with a look of confusion and surprise with a smile.

"......" Princess Taiping was speechless for a while, and was a little flustered when Xue Shao looked at her like this, so she quickly turned her face away, "You be careful, don't bake paste!" ”

Xue Shao laughed twice and turned the wooden fork.

"Don't laugh!"

"Ha Lu Ha!"

"You laugh so nasty!".
