Chapter 417: A Word

Wan Zege smiled coquettishly, and the two of them grinded their ears and temples, and they were extremely affectionate. Nang Jiazhen watched it from the sidelines, anxious in his heart, and couldn't wait for himself to bite his ears with Cheng Yue and Wan Ze.

Kublai Khan was comforted when he saw this scene, and smiled at Chabi: "Look at the intimacy between Cheng Yue and Wan Ze, how is it compared to when we were younger?" ”

Chabi smiled kindly: "They are really a natural pair, and they are jealous of each other, and they are no worse than when we were younger. ”

Kublai Khan laughed, suddenly remembered something, restrained his smile, and bowed to Luo Zhen in the distance, and said in a low voice: "Hu Luo Zhen has been silent these days, I heard that he told the people around him that he no longer wants to marry Nang Jiazhen, and said that since Nang Jiazhen likes Cheng Yue, he should marry Cheng Yue with Wan Ze, and the three of them should not be separated." He himself has a hot fight with a girl from Hongjirabu, and he has already lived together, you are his elder, do you want to persuade him? ”

Chabi smiled and said: "The Great Khan doesn't have to worry about them, Hongjira's loyalty to the Great Khan still needs to be said, even if he doesn't marry Nangjiazhen in the end, it's nothing." ”

Kublai Khan frowned and said, "This is the rule set by Genghis Khan. ”

Chabi poked Kublai Khan's hand lightly, and whispered in his ear: "Genghis Khan also said that the descendants of Ogedai Khan will be the Great Khan for generations, but the sea can be inferior to you everywhere." ”

Kublai Khan couldn't help but say hesitantly: "It's okay for you to say this, but what about Nangjiazhen?" Do you really want her to marry Cheng Yue with Wan Ze? This is a precedent that I cannot set before. ”

Chabi pursed his lips and smiled: "Don't worry about it, there must be a way to solve it." ”

Kublai Khan looked at Chabi suspiciously and said, "Are you hiding something from me?" ”

Chabi smiled and said, "Does the Great Khan want to know? ”

Kublai Khan's eyes rolled. smiled: "I still don't know." ”

Chabi smiled quietly. Said: "The Great Khan has fought all his life. After this battle, he will enjoy Qingfu in Dadu, and the outside affairs will be handed over to Cheng Yue, and he will not disappoint the Great Khan. ”

Kublai Khan sighed: "I am indeed getting old, and I don't want to leave home more and more. The expedition to Japan in the east and the expedition to Europe in the west are all Cheng Yue's affairs, and I will accompany you in Dadu in the future. Save you from always being afraid of me. ”

Chabi was happy in his heart, and his eyes intersected with Kublai Khan, the old husband and wife, and felt warm.

After the meal, the ministers saluted Kublai Khan and Chabi and retreated, leaving only Cheng Yue and Jin Lian behind.

Kublai Khan smiled at Cheng Yue and said, "Do you have something to talk about the Eastern Crusade?" Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, can't you just let me rest? ”

Cheng Yue said with a guilty face: "The minister always can't hold his breath, but fortunately the Great Khan tolerates it." ”

Kublai Khan smiled helplessly: "It's okay, you and I will come to the apse, it must be very important to think about it." ”

Cheng Yue and Jin Lian got up and followed Kublai Khan straight into the harem.

Jin Lian is a foreign minister. He had never entered Kublai Khan's harem, and his whole body trembled with excitement. In front are Kublai Khan's empress and imperial concubine. He was afraid of getting into trouble, so he didn't dare to look around, and only stared down at the ground along the way.

Kublai Khan and Cheng Yue went to Yanchun Pavilion to sit down, Jin Lian was not qualified to sit, so he could only stand far sideways, and no one served tea to him.

Cheng Yue took a sip of tea and said: "Great Khan, the minister just asked about Jin Lian, Goryeo repaired the shipbuilding with the strength of the whole country, Hong Chaqiu urged it urgently, the whole country was in trouble, and it was difficult to receive food, so the minister had the heart to solve one or two for Goryeo." ”

Kublai Khan said in embarrassment: "I won't tell you, Goryeo's grain request has been on five paths, but I have just fought a big war with the three major khanates, and I have to raise money and grain to build roads, and the people you transferred from the Southern Song Dynasty have built the cement factory, and it will start construction in the next year, and I really don't have much to give to Goryeo." ”

Cheng Yue said: "The minister understands the difficulties of the Great Khan. It is not as good as this, the ships built by Goryeo are rough and short, far inferior to the Lou ships of the Southern Song Dynasty, which can make them build half less, limited to 800 ships. When the ministers sent troops, they could make up for it by bringing some big ships from the Southern Song Dynasty. As for grain and grass, the minister could send 200,000 stone to Goryeo along the coastal road, and the Great Khan would take out another 50,000 stone, and the whole country of Goryeo would be relieved a little. ”

Kublai Khan was overjoyed in his heart, knowing that Cheng Yue had the heart to share his worries, he stroked his beard and muttered: "Fifty thousand stones, I should still be able to squeeze it out, according to what you say." ”

When Jin Lian heard this, he was so excited that he knelt down and walked to Kublai Khan and Cheng Yue, and said: "Thank you for the grace of the Great Khan and the King of Zhennan, as soon as the 250,000 stone grain arrives, the whole country of Goryeo will be able to build ships with all its might, and ten more ships can be built, not only nine ships!" ”

Kublai Khan smiled and said: "You have found the right person, the king of Zhennan is the richest man in the world, I don't have any money from him, go back and build a good ship, you must be worthy of the heart of the king of Zhennan." ”

Jin Lian kowtowed again and again, sighing in his heart. The king went to the five passages and sank into the sea, and he also had a lot of relationships in Dadu, but all he got was vague. Today, he only spoke a few words to the king of Zhennan, and he was able to enter the harem and make a decision in front of the Great Khan!

It's a pity that the king of Zhennan will return to Lin'an soon, otherwise most of the people from Goryeo will know who to look for when they come in the future. But it doesn't matter, King Zhennam will soon arrive in Goryeo, and when the time comes, King Zhennam must be served to the benefit, so that Goryeo's life can be better.

Cheng Yue said: "Jin Lian, you go back first, I still have something to say to the Great Khan." ”

Jin Lian retreated, and when he left, he deliberately gave Cheng Yueshen another salute.

Kublai Khan sighed and said with a wry smile: "Anything else? ”

Cheng Yue said with a smile: "Yes, the minister knows that today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so he wants to ask the Great Khan for mercy for a person who is separated from his family and cannot be reunited." ”

Kublai Khan's face sank slightly, and he said, "Ali Hague? ”

Cheng Yue's face remained unchanged and said, "Yes, it's him." His wife, two sisters, and three daughters were in the palace, and the ministers could not bear to see them suffer any longer, and wanted to ask the Great Khan for a favor. ”

Kublai Khan was silent for a moment and asked, "Is he working for you?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "Who is Ali Hague, of course the Great Khan knows better than me. He was naturally ambitious, how could he be willing to be imprisoned for the rest of his life? The minister was very cautious about him, and did not give him any important duties, and now he is concentrating on making clocks and watches for the minister. The Great Khan was assured that if he dared to provoke his ministers to deal with the Great Khan, the ministers would kill him on the spot. ”

Kublai Khan said suspiciously: "Clocks? ”

Cheng Yue said: "Yes, it is a tool invented by the minister to keep time, it is very accurate, and when it is made, it will be sent to the Great Khan immediately." ”

Kublai Khan heard the clouds and mountains covered with fog, and left it alone for the time being, and said: "How deep is Ali Hague's resentment against me? ”

Cheng Yue said with a smile: "Ali Hague's sons are all around, his wife, daughter and sister also have to be protected, the Great Khan only killed his two brothers-in-law, how much resentment can there be?" The ministers robbed him of his three favorite concubines, and maybe even made him even more indignant. The minister is the concubine of the Great Khan, and Wanze is the master mother he wants to serve, what else can he do? The Great Khan put his relatives back, and he would only be grateful to the Great Khan, after all, he did help his ministers. The Great Khan might as well remember that he had done some small deeds for the Great Khan, be lenient, and release his relatives back to the reunion, otherwise the ministers would always feel indebted to him. ”

Kublai Khan smiled and said, "Are you embarrassed to say?" I've seen all three of his little concubines, it's no wonder he doesn't hate you! ”

Cheng Yue said with a smile: "Erchen privately told his father Khan that his concubines are very capable, and Erchen is very favored, and one of them is named Qian'er who has a grudge against him and has always been resentful. ”

Kublai Khan laughed: "I know, that is his most beautiful concubine." Ali Hague is really ...... Ha ha. ”

Cheng Yue sneered: "If he can rob others, others will naturally rob him, and there is nothing to be sorry for him." ”

Kublai Khan stood up, paced slowly for a while, sighed, and said, "Ali Hague can be regarded as a generation, and I am a little ashamed of him. ”

Cheng Yue said: "That father Khan means ......"

Kublai Khan shook his head, nodded again, and said, "Wanze lacks a few summoned subordinates, let them go there, and I don't care about anything else." Also, Ali Hague's other concubines I will try to find them back and send them to Wan Ze, do you want to return them to him or keep them for yourself, I will also be yours, okay? ”

Cheng Yue was overjoyed and said with a smile: "In this way, Ali Hague will not have many complaints, and this matter can be revealed." ”

Kublai Khan let out an "um" and said, "You give him some rewards for me, don't mention me." ”

Cheng Yue smiled knowingly and said, "Yes, Erchen can save it, and Erchen will thank the Great Khan for Ali Hague." ”

Kublai Khan waved his hand and said, "Excuse me, is there anything else?" ”

Cheng Yue said with a smile: "If you talk about the Great Khan again, you will drag your sons out and beat them, don't dare." ”

Kublai Khan laughed and said, "I know that you are also absent-minded, go with me to find Wanze, don't stay too long." ”

Cheng Yue smiled and followed Kublai Khan to Chabi's dormitory, and all the concubines were really there.

As soon as Cheng Yue beckoned, Wan Ze obediently followed him to the side hall, drove away the palace maid on duty, and let Cheng Yue kiss his whole body weak.

After a while, Nang Jiazhen also found an excuse to come over, and Cheng Yue hugged left and right, and he had endless fun.

Walking out of the palace, Cheng Yue was relieved, Ali Hague had been hidden in his heart for a long time, and it was about to become a piece of his heart, and this time he was finally able to explain to him.

Back at home, Cheng Yue was extremely excited, and as soon as he entered the back house, he was greeted by pearls and a few palace maids. Cheng Yue was stunned and asked in surprise, "Why haven't you left yet?" ”

Pearl and a few palace maids saluted: "The prince didn't order, and the slaves and maids didn't dare to return to the palace." Pearl's voice was particularly soft, and she gave Cheng Yue a wink.

Cheng Yue smiled: "That's right, I'm going to have a banquet for a lot of people tomorrow, it's going to be very busy today and tomorrow, you stay and help, take a good rest after that, and go back the day after tomorrow." ”

The palace maids were happy in their hearts, King Zhennan was really a hurtful person.

Cheng Yue returned to the bedroom, a wave of sleepiness hit, Mrs. Song brought Cheng Yue a cup of tea, Cheng Yue drank it in one go, lay down on the bed and fell asleep. (To be continued......)
