Chapter 896: Secluded Place
The next morning, after Wang Yuan met Xuanzong, he returned to the political affairs hall, and stayed in the political affairs hall for a while, Wang Yuan found that all the people were busy with the relief and settlement of the people this winter, but he was very idle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Wei Jiansu and Yan Zhenqing were even busier and nowhere to be seen. The people were so busy that they even walked in a hurry, but Wang Yuan was wandering around in the large courtyard of the political hall.
Wang Yuan didn't think there was anything wrong with him, Wang Yuan had always been unwilling to indulge in trivial affairs. As the leader of the political affairs hall, if you have to do it yourself, I am afraid that there are thousands of things to deal with every day.
At the beginning of Wang Yuan's tenure as Xiangguo, he told all officials that unless the matter reached the point where they needed to solve it themselves, they would find their own way to coordinate and solve it. If you have to report to yourself to solve trivial matters the size of sesame seeds, you will have to be so tired that you vomit three liters of blood. Wang Yuan will not let a lot of his time be tied up by these trivial things, even if he is sitting in the yard basking in the sun, Wang Yuan does not want to waste time on dealing with a trivial matter. Moreover, the operation of the political hall has long had his fixed routine, even if Wang Yuan leaves Chengdu for a few months, the political hall is not running freely. What Wang Yuan has to do is not to bow down to himself, but to grasp the key things and supervise the key personnel. Delegating power to subordinates is not herding sheep, sometimes it is a way to motivate subordinates. Subordinates who have some discretionary power are much more efficient and methodical than those subordinates who only ask for instructions on everything.
The meaning of the so-called knowing people and making good use of them is not only a literal meaning, but also contains a lot of connotation and knowledge in the way of the emperor. How to use people is a kind of university question that contains complex psychological knowledge, and later generations have already had special research in this area, and all kinds of success books on the market have dug this point thoroughly.
Everyone had something to do, and Wang Yuan was relieved. Yan Zhenqing was able to quickly integrate into the imperial court system with passion, and Wang Yuan was also pleased. In fact, Wang Yuan didn't want to get too close to Yan Zhenqing, nor did he want to win Yan Zhenqing into his confidant. Wang Yuan recommended that he really feel that Yan Zhenqing has the ability to play a role, clean up the chaotic government in an orderly manner, and don't drag his feet on the major matter of counterinsurgency. But in fact, for Yan Zhenqing, Wang Yuan has a respectful and respectful attitude.
This person dared to argue with Li Mao, the king of longevity, on the street that day, and did not give Li Mao face at all, it should be said that he was a person with courage and backbone. From this point of view, Wang Yuan is not worried that he will be co-opted and corrupted by Li Mao and others, and he can also give Yan Zhenqing appropriate trust. But the fact that Yan Zhenqing stuck to Pingyuan City for nine months also revealed from his bones that he was actually a diehard loyalist of the Tang Dynasty. Wang Yuan sometimes thinks that if he had to choose between himself and Xuanzong, how would Yan Zhenqing choose? The answer given by Wang Yuan is that Yan Zhenqing will definitely choose Xuanzong, because he is an out-and-out die-hard person.
The word loyal minister will be praised in the history books, and Wang Yuan certainly agrees that it is a virtue. But Wang Yuan is a person who will not be trapped in a cage by the word loyalty. Loyalty to the Tang Dynasty may be a virtue, but loyalty to the monarch is another matter. What kind of king wants his ministers to die, and his ministers have to die, this kind of thing is a joke in Wang Yuan's opinion. As a person who has traveled through later generations, Wang Yuan's moral character is not necessarily very noble, he pursues egoism, and all virtues are based on the inviolability of his own interests. Even if the other party is the emperor and the other party is a loyal minister and filial son, if it threatens the life and death of Wang Yuan and his family and brothers, Wang Yuan will not hesitate to cut off the other party's head with a knife. Therefore, for people like Yan Zhenqing, Wang Yuan has respect for him on the one hand, but this respect also contains the meaning of respecting and staying away. In essence, people like himself and Yan Zhenqing are two kinds of people.
In the warm morning sun, Wang Yuan drank a freshly brewed cup of tea, and then strode out of the large courtyard of the political affairs hall. The servant asked Wang Yuan, "Where is Xiangguo going?" If other people want to seek Xiangguo, where should they go to report to Xiangguo? ā
Wang Yuan thought for a while and waved his hand: "Tell them that unless the sky falls, everything will be resolved by itself." ā
In the servant's stunned eyes, Wang Yuan walked away across the horse. Of course, Wang Yuan couldn't let people know his heart, because he planned to go to Huanhuaxi to meet Mrs. Qin Guo and Sister Yang Yuhuan. It's been more than half a year since I went to see Mrs. Qin and them. The last time I went to see them when the grass grew and the warbler flew, after which I led my army out to fight on the battlefield of counterinsurgency. In the past few months, although there is a correspondence connection, Hongyan's biography is difficult to quench the thirst for lovesickness. When Wang Yuan returned to the Chang'an army, in the two months that he left the army to take risks, Mrs. Qin actually wrote eight letters and accumulated them in the army. One of the letters turned out to be written by Yang Yuhuan.
Mrs. Qin's letter was full of lovesickness, and the next few letters even had some resentment. Although this woman has never been such a temperament, there has been no news for several months, and Mrs. Qin Guo will inevitably feel resentful. Yang Yuhuan's letter is even more interesting, Yang Yuhuan's letter did not write any explicit sweet words, but sent a lyric pretending to ask Wang Yuan how the lyrics were written, saying that he wanted to compose a new song. But Wang Yuan still felt a sense of longing from that letter.
Of course, Wang Yuan also wants this pair of sisters. Needless to say, when Mrs. Qin Guo thinks of Yang Yuhuan, Wang Yuan always thinks of that drunken night. That day, when I was having fun on Yang Yuhuan's plump and full body, the feeling of eroding the bones and ecstasy was simply haunting. Although he was a little embarrassed later, the scene of the first beauty in the world, the former concubine Niangniang, tactfully accepting joy under herself, is enough for any man to forget. Therefore, in fact, Wang Yuan wanted to visit the sisters on the day he returned to Chengdu, but there were many affairs, and there were many major matters that had to be dealt with immediately, so Wang Yuan could only postpone the date of the visit.
Just now, Wang Yuan originally wanted to sit in the political hall for a decent morning, saying that as a prime minister, he should set an example and take official affairs seriously. But after a cup of tea, Wang Yuan changed his mind. With such a sunny weather and such a good time, why sit in the government hall and look like it. I couldn't wait to see Mrs. Qin Guo and them. Once this idea was born, it was unstoppable, so Wang Yuan almost did not hesitate to step away.
On the avenue leading to Huanhua Creek in the southern city, Wang Yuan and Zhao Qing and more than a dozen guards rode across the Wanli Covered Bridge all the way to the south. Although the grass and trees on the side of the road have withered a lot due to the colder weather. But it still looks lush and dense, as if competing for the last ray of sunshine before the harsh winter comes, swaying in the already chilly wind. In the distance, the color of the rolling hills and fields changed from turquoise to black and yellow. The mountain is white and white, although there is a sense of depression, but it gives people a more vast and grand feeling, but there is also a different scene.
Wang Yuan, who was galloping on a horse, didn't have the heart to enjoy the scenery of the mountains and wilderness, his mind came to the appearance of Mrs. Qin Guo and Yang Yuhuan, and his nose seemed to be able to smell the fragrance on their bodies.
All the way south, an hour later, we arrived at the bank of the dense forest on the bank of Huanhua Creek. Walk through the dense forest path and arrive at the outside of the villa on the banks of the Huanhua Creek, surrounded by hedges. Zhao Qing stayed outside with more than a dozen guards, opened the door of the hedge and let Wang Yuan ride his horse in.
Because no one pruned for a long time, and because there were not many people coming and going, the road leading to the grass was already full of wild grass and vines and branches that had grown wildly for a summer. Wang Yuan slowly rode the big black horse through the leaves and vines of these trees, and had to use his hands from time to time to remove the branches and vines that blocked his way. Soon after, a verdant bamboo forest appeared in front of me, and the sound of a stream rushing could be heard. Wang Yuan rode his horse and stopped, sighed slightly, knowing that the grass house was ahead.
Wang Yuan turned over and dismounted, leading the big black horse slowly towards the bamboo forest. The bamboo forest is lush, but the bamboo leaves are more verdant than in spring. The wind blows, the bamboo leaves rustle, and the sunlight that shines through it mottled the shadows of the bamboo leaves, scattering them on Wang Yuan and the big black horse.
Wang Yuan slowly walked to the grass house at the end of the bamboo forest that showed a corner, and the grass house on the side of the bamboo forest gradually revealed the whole picture. The courtyard in front of the grass house was empty, and through the fence, you could see a few pieces of vegetable furrows in the yard, which were planted by Mrs. Qin Guo herself. The yard was also neatly tied, and there was actually a small wooden pavilion next to the bamboo fence on the side of Huanhua Creek, with a few tables and chairs in it.
Wang Yuan came to the gate of the courtyard, tied the horse to the fence, and gently pushed open the fence door and walked into the yard. The porch in front of the cottage was empty, and there was silence all around, except for the sound of the wind blowing in my ears, the murmuring of the stream, and the sound of birds flying in the air.
"That's ...... Who? A voice came from behind him.
As soon as Wang Yuan turned around, he saw that outside the bamboo fence, two girls were standing side by side, each holding a wooden basin in their hands, and there were a lot of wet clothes piled up in it, obviously the return of the raccoon clothes.
"Red Bean, Green Leaf, don't you know me?" Wang Yuan smiled.
"Ahh It's the prince of the king. Oh, I'm so stupid, isn't that big dark horse the prince's horse? Red Beans jumped up and screamed.
Lu Ye'er also widened her eyes and said happily: "Sure enough, it's Wang Gongzi, just now I looked at my back and was confused, as if my body was a little burder than before, and the little maid didn't dare to recognize it." ā
Wang Yuan laughed, could he have grown taller again? Or rather, the body has become stronger after the war.
"What about Madame? Expensive...... What about Miss Yuhuan? Wang Yuan exclaimed with a smile.
This question reminded the two maidservants, and Hongdouer and Luye'er threw away the wooden basin in their hands almost at the same time, and rushed into the courtyard and ran towards the grass house. He shouted loudly: "Madam, madam, the prince is here, the prince is here." ā
Wang Yuan was caught off guard and was taken aback by the madness of the two maidservants. Also startled were the birds in the bamboo forest, which were startled by the screams of the two maidservants and fled in panic. Even the fish in the Huanhua Creek seemed to be frightened, and a large white fish leaped out of the water, glanced at this strange world in the air, and then fell into the water, diving into the aquatic plants and hiding.
ā¦ā¦
The cries of the two maidservants broke the silence on the banks of the Huanhua Creek, and almost instantly, the atmosphere around them became lively and noisy. When the two maidservants rushed into the house, Wang Yuan clearly heard the sound of things toppling and overturning in the back house, as if it was the clanging of tables and chairs and the cracking of tea cups falling to the ground.
Wang Yuan scratched his head and was speechless, stepped onto the porch and entered the front hall, and the next moment the broken flower curtain of the back door of the front hall that shook was violently lifted, and a figure appeared at the back door wheezing. Isn't it Mrs. Qin or who?
Mrs. Qin Guo looked at Wang Yuan standing in the hall with a small mouth open, she was wearing a yellow jacket and a blue long skirt, her hair was fluffy and lightly pulled, only a golden hairpin was inserted obliquely on her head, and her face was only thinly powdered, and she was not carefully dressed. But even so, Mrs. Qin Guo is still Mrs. Qin Guo, she still has a thrilling beauty, and she exudes a lazy and coquettish attitude all over her body. As if because of her excitement, Mrs. Qin's face was snow-white, her red lips were slightly open, and her eyes were hazy, as if she was choking out tears.
"Jiro?" Mrs. Qin Guo stretched out her little tongue and licked her dry red lips, and cried out in a dumb voice.
"It's me, ma'am." Wang Yuan smiled.
Mrs. Qin Guo stretched out her hand and touched her head and face, looked down at her body again, and suddenly shouted in panic: "Red beans, green leaves, hurry, wait for me to comb my hair and change clothes." Oh, how do I see people like this? Great, how is this good? How could I run out like that? I...... How could I be so rude in front of Jiro? ā
Mrs. Qin Guo whispered loudly, and the two maids behind her, Hongdouer and Luye'er, hurriedly agreed, and Mrs. Qinguo, who was in a hurry, stepped forward to help her hand and was about to turn back. Wang Yuan stepped forward quickly, grabbed Mrs. Qin's arm, pulled her into his arms, and hugged her tightly with both arms.
"Erlang, let me go and freshen up, how can I show my face like this?" Mrs. Qin Guo hurriedly shouted.
"Madam, you don't have to go, in my mind, you will always be the most beautiful. How can you and I care about these subtleties? Wang Yuan looked down at the pretty face that was close at hand and smiled.
"No, how can you be so rude? Jiro is rare to come back, I can't do this. The concubine wants to show Erlang the best appearance...... Not...... Not. Mrs. Qin Guo struggled.
Wang Yuan suddenly leaned over and kissed the two red lips, and Mrs. Qin Guo was stunned, struggling violently, but she was tightly clamped by Wang Yuan's arms and couldn't move. I only felt that the tip of Wang Yuan's tongue forcefully pried open his lips and protruded into his mouth, and the next moment, his little tongue was tightly wrapped in his mouth, and he was almost numb from being sucked. Mrs. Qin Guo's tears flowed, she stretched out her arms to hug Wang Yuan's head and neck, and the fragrant tongue began to fight back, and the two of them were so entangled that they completely forgot that there were two maidservants by their side.
Red Beans and Green Leaves were too shy to look at them at first, but then they began to point with red faces. Finally, Hongdou'er let out a chuckle of 'card', which woke up Mrs. Qin Guo, who was intoxicated with a long kiss, and she realized that this was in broad daylight, and there were people beside her. So Mrs. Qin Guo hurriedly reached out and gently pushed Wang Yuan's chest, forcing him to leave her lips like a sucker.
Both of them gasped violently, and Wang Yuan looked at Mrs. Qin Guo with a smile and said, "Madame's small mouth is still fragrant like sandalwood, and this is the smell that taught me to dream of my soul." ā
Mrs. Qin Guo said coquettishly: "You still said that you are ashamed." You let go of me, and I'll go back to my room to make up and change clothes. Red Bean, you make tea quickly and wait for the prince to rest. Green leaves, go back to the room and help me comb my hair. ā
The two maidservants covered their mouths and agreed in a coquettish voice, Wang Yuan had to let go of Mrs. Qin Guo, Mrs. Qin Guo blessed Wang Yuan, turned around and hurried away, leaving only the shaky door curtain in Wang Yuan's gaze.
"Childe, please sit down, and the little maid will make you tea." Hongdouer said with a smile.
took off the black coat and handed it to the red bean to hang on the hanger, turned around and walked to the table and sat down. Hongdou'er made a pot of hot tea lightly and neatly, poured a cup of fragrant tea for Wang Yuan and put it in front of him, and said with a smile: "Son, use it slowly, and the little maid will help Mrs. Gang." It's going to be a scramble right now. ā
Wang Yuan nodded and smiled: "Tell Madame, don't dress up so grandly." ā
Hongdou'er saluted and said, "Got it." Then he hurried away.
Wang Yuan sat in the chair, took a sip of tea, the entrance was fragrant, refreshed, and praised in his heart. After a few sips of hot tea, I felt very comfortable in my heart, sighed and began to shake my head.
Soon after, there was a sound of footsteps behind the hall, Wang Yuan hurriedly got up and looked at the door curtain, the door curtain was lifted, and a figure slowly walked in from the sunlight. Wang Yuan smiled: "Dressed up so quickly?" Or is it because you're in a hurry to meet me? ā
The figure chuckled and said, "Prince Wang, do you regard me as the eighth sister?" ā
Wang Yuan was startled, the sunlight outside was too bright, and the man's face was in the dark with his back to the sun, and he didn't see clearly for a while. But listening to this voice, it is obviously Yang Yuhuan undoubtedly. Yang Yuhuan entered, saluted Wang Yuan slightly, and said softly: "Yuhuan has given a salute to Wang Gongzi." ā
Wang Yuan hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Miss Yuhuan is polite. Sorry, sorry, I just recognized the wrong person. I'll treat you like a lady. ā
Yang Yuhuan wore an emerald green long skirt, with a white openwork shawl on her shoulders, her temples were lightly pulled, and she smiled lightly. In the sunlight, the slender neck exposed is as graceful as a swan, and white and dazzling in the bright light.
"It turns out that Gongzi only remembers the eighth sister in his mind, but he doesn't remember me. I really envy the eighth sister. Yang Yuhuan sighed faintly.
Wang Yuan didn't know how to speak, and looked up at Yang Yuhuan's eyes, but saw that Yang Yuhuan's eyes seemed to be misty, and the joy and expectation in his eyes couldn't be suppressed.
"Miss Yuhuan, I'...... I miss you too. How is everything going during this time? Wang Yuan said in a deep voice.
Yang Yuhuan smiled and said: "What's good or bad, now I don't hear anything outside the window, and I just live day by day." ā
Wang Yuan said with a smile: "I don't hear anything outside the window, that's a good thing." I'm a lot like this, but I can't help myself. I'm very envious. ā
Yang Yuhuan said coquettishly: "The mouth is not right. If I want you to live such a life, I'm afraid you will be bored in three days. ā
Wang Yuan said with a smile: "That's not necessarily, if I am accompanied by beautiful women, indulge in the mountains and rivers every day, and calm down for years, I can still calm down." ā
Yang Yuhuan's face was slightly red and said: "Accompanied by beautiful women? Who are you talking about? ā
Wang Yuan smiled and said: "There is a beautiful woman in the peerless generation, living in a deep valley. A smile captivates the city, and then a smile captivates the country. Who in the world can have the reputation of captivating the country and the city. ā
Yang Yuhuan's face was slightly red, but his eyes flashed.
