Chapter 131: I Like You
Hearing Lin Xifeng's question, Zhao Yupan's fingers knocked on the wooden chair, and after looking at him for a while, he lowered his head slightly, if Lin Xifeng really wanted to be a concubine just because she was the emperor, it would leave a bad impression on her, and after a while, he raised his head and said: "I remember that Gongzi said before that Gongzi has a wife's room, it stands to reason that my father will not allow a person with a wife to be a concubine, if Gongzi wants to be a concubine, the first thing to do is to divorce his current wife, which should be the bottom line that his father can accept. If I don't divorce my wife and marry me, even if I allow it, my father will never agree, this is related to the royal face, even if my father favors me again, he will not ignore this. **.”
Lin Xifeng looked a little restless, picked up the teacup and got up from the chair, paced back and forth in front of Zhao Yupan for a while, until he was about to dazzle Zhao Yupan, he stopped and suddenly looked at her, and said with a somewhat serious expression: "Your Highness, can you promise to do the next thing?" ”
Zhao Yupan rubbed his eyes: "What's the matter?" ”
"Can Your Highness promise me not to recruit me as a colt, no matter what the future holds?" Lin Xifeng stared directly at Zhao Yupan and said earnestly.
Hearing Lin Xifeng's words, Zhao Yupan only felt that there was a momentary short circuit in her brain, and blinked her eyes in astonishment, she thought that Lin Xifeng inquired about these because she wanted to be a colt, but she didn't expect him to say this suddenly, and after staying for a while, Zhao Yupan opened his mouth in a daze: "Childe's words...... What does that mean? ”
"Didn't Your Highness understand? I don't want to be a colt, but I hope that His Royal Highness will be fulfilled. Lin Xifeng returned to his seat and said with a smile, his expression became relaxed when the words came out.
Zhao Yupan lowered his head and thought for a while, and then laughed as well: "Listening to the meaning of the son, it seems that he is very sure, I will recruit you as a concubine?" ”
Lin Xifeng looked at her for a while, then looked away: "I don't know." ”
"Then why did the boy say that?"
"Your Highness, this is a rainy day! Divorce of wives. I can't do it, and I don't want to do it, I wonder if Your Highness can agree to this? ”
"No...... Anything that I am not sure of will be promised. Zhao Yupan sat up from the chair, glanced at Lin Xifeng deeply, and said with a smile: "Let's take a step at a time!" What is to come...... Who knows......"
Zhao Yupan's expression suddenly changed subtly, she thought that Lin Xifeng was a person who clinged to glory, and she looked down on her heart, but now when she heard Lin Xifeng's words, she felt that there was a subtle change. Civilians must be able to be high-climbing, most people can't ask for it, and there don't seem to be many people like Lin Xifeng who try their best to refuse......
"What does this mean, Your Highness?" Looking at Zhao Yupan's expression, Lin Xifeng frowned, and faintly felt that she had something to think about in her heart.
"Let's turn this over for now! Thinking about it in the future, does Childe have anything else to do? Zhao Yupan looked at Lin Xifeng with a smile and changed the topic lightly.
Lin Xifeng wanted to say something more, but looked at Zhao Yupan's expression. also knew that it would be meaningless to say more, so after being silent for a while, he said again: "According to what His Highness said, this matter will be discussed later, and the third thing ...... I wonder what His Highness is going to do with those bandits? ”
Zhao Yupan sat back in his chair. smiled and said: "Regarding the matter of the bandits, I will truthfully explain it to my father, as for their lives, it depends on what my father will do." ”
Lin Xifeng was silent for a while. Then he said: "In the eyes of His Highness, what do you think of that group of bandits...... I mean, does Your Highness think they're the worst of the worst? ”
"Is there a good or bad bandit?" Zhao Yupan raised his head slightly. looked at Lin Xifeng: "They are nothing more than robbing the poor people's property for their own use, no matter what means they use, it is not advisable." ”
"Has Your Highness ever wondered why there are so many bandits...... If the world is peaceful, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country takes care of it properly, and there is no need to worry about livelihood, I think ...... There will not be so many people who are willing to live this kind of life licking blood on the knife edge, of course, I also have to admit that no matter how rich and powerful the country is, there will always be thieves, this is inevitable, but there will definitely not be so many thieves who occupy the mountain as kings, think about it, there are so many thieves near this small Xihu County, you can imagine how many thieves there should be in my court......"
Seeing that Zhao Yupan was silent, Lin Xifeng continued: "Presumably, His Royal Highness came out of the palace this time for fun, from Bianjing City to our Xihu County, along the way, he should have seen all the sufferings in the world, how many people can't eat, how many people are displaced, how many people are oppressed by high-ranking officials and magnates, they also want to live, so they chose a certain one...... The road is not bright, others are thinking about how to change their tricks to live better, but they are thinking about how to live. Nowadays, wealth has flowed to the tip, the rich have become richer, the poor have become poorer, and the country has ......."
Speaking of this, Lin Xifeng stopped, it stands to reason that none of these words should be said to Zhao Yupan, but he didn't stop being emotional for a while, so he said so much, but the last sentence "The country has reached the end of the road" was swallowed back by him, and he didn't say anything disobedient, but it didn't hurt.
Zhao Yupan was silent for a while, lowered his head, and then muttered in a low voice: "These things are related to political affairs, I can't participate in the government politics, and I can't manage these things, no matter how much you talk to me, it's not righteous...... If Childe is dissatisfied, just talk about it, and I should just listen to it, and it will not happen afterwards. ”
Zhao Yupan's meaning is obvious, if you are not used to seeing the suffering of the people, just say it, I will listen to it, but after listening to it, I will be the wind in my ears, and I really can't change anything, even if I have the heart...... also powerless.
Seeing Zhao Yupan's appearance, Lin Xifeng didn't have the heart to continue, and now he told her that no matter how much he played the piano to the cow, he thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, did you see a group of people in the corner of the bandit camp?" ”
"I have some impressions, but I didn't pay too much attention to it, it should be a bandit...... Zhao Yupan shook her head, in that case, where did she have the heart to care about the identities of those people, in the bandit camp, she only regarded it as a bandit.
"They are a group of old and sick people, and they may become food for their prey when they go out to hunt, if you are the boss of the bandits, will you want this kind of bandits?" Lin Xifeng pouted and smiled, and glanced at Zhao Yupan.
Zhao Yupan was stunned for a moment: "It's not a bandit...... So why are they in the bandit camp? Are they all people who have been arrested like me? ”
Lin Xifeng laughed, shook his head and said: "It seems that His Royal Highness is not suitable to be the leader of the bandits, if the robbers are all good to raise, how much food will they have to waste!" For the robbers, they generally have two ways to deal with them, one is to let them go, and the other is to kill them, most of the time...... They are all killed, because they are afraid that these people will leak some of their things, the facilities of the camp, the location of the camp and so on...... So if it's not a vicious bandit, they usually won't arrest people, just snatch all your things and it's over. ”
"I always felt that Childe seemed to want to exonerate the bandits, but if they were not the most vicious people, why would they arrest me? Isn't Childe's words a contradiction? ”
Lin Xifeng was stuck by Zhao Yupan's question, and then laughed helplessly: "There are some hidden secrets in this matter, and now I won't talk about it in detail with His Highness." ”
"Okay, okay, Childe should stop playing dumb riddles, let's talk about who they are......" Zhao Yupan hurriedly waved his hand and asked quite urgently.
Lin Xifeng glanced at her with a smile, and paused for a while before saying, "Refugees, they are all refugees that even the government is unwilling to accept." ”
"Refugees? Why do they take in refugees? Zhao Yupan opened his mouth in astonishment and said.
"That's why I say, they're not wicked!"
"Not a wicked man...... Why do you want to rob someone else's stuff again? ”
"To survive."
"Then you can't rob other people's things, even if you want to excuse them, you have to find a reason that can convince me!"
"I've found a reason!"
"What?"
"To survive."
"You're quibbling."
"How can there be ......" Lin Xifeng pouted.
"It's quibbling!" Zhao Yupan puffed out his mouth dissatisfied.
"Have you ever wondered why they are bandits? Oh...... Don't talk about this, it seems to go back to the original topic......" Lin Xifeng was silent for a while before he said again: "I just want to ask Your Highness, doesn't Your Highness have a little feeling in his heart about the adoption of refugees by bandits?" ”
Zhao Yupan was silent, picked up the teacup in front of him and wanted to take a sip of tea, but found that the tea had been drunk, Lin Xifeng stepped forward a few steps forward and poured her another cup with the teapot, while looking at her quietly. Zhao Yupan blew the tea and whispered: "Actually, I can see that Childe said so much, it is nothing more than wanting to intercede with the bandits, although I don't know why Childe has a good impression of the bandits, but they want to kill me, and even defile my body......"
Zhao Yupan took a sip of the rim of the cup and continued: "Please forgive me for putting the importance of life after chastity......" When she said this, Zhao Yupan suddenly raised her head to meet Lin Xifeng's gaze, and she once again stated that she valued chastity very seriously. Lin Xifeng didn't notice her gaze, and even understood that she was deliberately reminding him of this matter again, and after putting down the teapot, he pretended to return to his seat unintentionally.
Looking at Lin Xifeng's back, Zhao Yupan pursed his lips and expressed his simplest thoughts: "I don't like them." ”
Lin Xifeng paused, frowned, turned around slowly, met Zhao Yupan's smiling gaze, and was about to say something more, but heard Zhao Yupan's faint voice again.
"But I like you...... This Keju master ......" (to be continued......)
