Chapter 692: The Queen's Godwife
readx;?“ They were left in the palace by His Majesty. "Liu Xiu slowly folded the letter he had just received, glanced at the eldest princess, and the smile on the corner of his mouth flashed.www.biquge.info
"What does Father mean?" The eldest princess stopped her chopsticks and frowned.
"I don't know what my father means." Liu Xiu picked up the chopsticks again, picked out the most tender piece of meat at the belly of the fish, carefully plucked the fish bones, and picked them up and put them in Liu Ye's rice bowl. Liu Ye picked it up and threw it into his mouth, chewed on the desk, and ate the corners of his mouth full of rice. When the eldest princess saw it, she sank her face and snorted, Liu Ye was startled, and quickly sat up straight, picked up a towel on the side to wipe her mouth, and then ate unhurriedly.
Liu Xiu blinked, wanted to laugh but didn't laugh: "This is what you taught?" ”
"It's not taught by concubines, it's taught by Mr. Gongxiao." The eldest princess bowed her head and said: "Habits should be formed from a young age, and if you change them when you grow up, it will be too late, and you can't be natural after all." ”
Yan Zhong on the side was eating calmly, as if he hadn't heard.
Liu Xiu was silent. No matter how scheming Yan Zhong is, how can he understand these rules that are only available in the palace, such things can only be taught by the eldest princess who has stayed in the palace. But the eldest princess can put the responsibility on him in front of Yan Zhong, and Yan Zhong should be fine, which is enough to show that their opinions are the same, that is, Liu Ye, the son-in-law, should be cultivated as an emperor since he was a child.
Liu Xiu put down his chopsticks and suddenly laughed: "In this way, I am really a Chu person, and I am crowned by a monkey." When I was as old as Ah Ye, I knew how to play crazy, and when I grew up, I only knew how to fight, and later I learned some etiquette, and I didn't become a system. ”
The eldest princess's face turned pale suddenly, she hurriedly avoided the table, and said in a trembling voice: "Husband." The concubine body does not mean this. ”
Yan Zhong hesitated for a moment, and then laughed again: "General, this time, that time." You can't generalize. What parent doesn't want their child to be polite and gentle. The king was confined to his status back then, and he couldn't teach the king, and if he had changed to the present, he probably wouldn't have let the king go so much. The king, although the Confucian is almost pedantic, but the depression is not bad. The Master regarded himself as a Yin man. also said that I was from Zhou. ”
"Mr. Gongxiao, 'quality is better than literature, literature is better than history, literature is courteous, and then gentlemen'. It is his honor to be taught by Mr. Dogzi, but Mr. should not teach him to be a pedantic person who only knows how to be polite and does not know the truth. ”
Yan Zhong bowed unhurriedly: "General Xie trusts." Loyalty, dare not be exhausted, loyalty. He smiled and said, "Actually, if the general really wants to teach Wang Sun to be a Confucian, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it." The general also knows. In fact, my Confucian knowledge is also half-understood, and I dare not go to Confucianism. ”
Liu Xiu couldn't help but smile. Yan Zhong was brilliant in wisdom and knowledge, but he was indeed not a true Confucian. With him to teach Liu Ye, Liu Ye will definitely not become a pedantic person. He believes in this 100 percent.
"Then it's hard work Mr. Gongxiao." Liu Xiu gently exposed the matter and stopped discussing it. From Yan Zhong's attitude, he could see that this was not something that could be said clearly in one or two sentences, and it was likely that he couldn't say it at all. Although Yan Zhong was bent on changing the dynasty, the concept of concubine in his thinking was still very clear. What's more, he is now tied up with Liu Ye.
Interests, in the final analysis, are interests. Liu Xiu had a headache and was in no mood to eat again, so he ate two bites hastily and then withdrew first. Seeing that Liu Xiu was in a bad mood, the others were not in the mood to eat, so they dispersed in a hurry.
Liu Xiu returned to the inner room. Thinking back to what he had just said, he paced back and forth. From Guo Jia's persuasion, Gan Ning jumped out to make trouble, Xia Yu and others added fuel to the fire, and then to Yan Zhong's performance today, he knew that he was already a little helpless. He has borne the hopes of too many people, and it is impossible to retreat, and the chic of "brushing off his clothes and hiding his merit and fame" has nothing to do with him. But it is not easy to move forward, courtiers who care about the Han family are everywhere, not to mention anything else, Mr. Lu Zhi, Yang Biao and others will not accept it, Zhu Jun, Zang Min These generals will not accept his self-reliance in order for the court to abandon the powerful Yuan family.
Isn't it easy to change the dynasty? In history, Cao Cāo was in power for more than ten years, and finally did not dare to take that step, and then counted, Wang Mang has been in business for so many years, and nominally has the support of the people of the world, and in the end, what is it, it is not its prosperity and prosperity, and its prosperity is also sudden? Once you miss, the peace of the world that is so easy to get will be in vain.
He didn't want to take that risk, but now it seemed that he might not be allowed to take it.
"Husband?" The eldest princess stood at the door, her face still a little pale, and looked at him timidly. "Concubine ......"
"Come in, husband and wife, stand at the door and look at something." Liu Xiu shook his head helplessly. Maybe it's because he's been away for too long, and he's a little rusty, maybe it's because he has a mustard in his heart, and it's like seeing an outsider. He stepped forward, took the eldest princess's hand, dragged her in, poked his head out to look outside, waved his hand to Sun Ce on duty, and motioned him to push the jing cordon farther away, then turned around and brought the door, pulled the eldest princess to sit on the seat, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, I haven't eaten enough, and my face is not good." ”
The eldest princess smiled and bowed down and said, "The concubine was speechless for a while just now, and she didn't intend to accuse her husband, and I ask your husband to forgive me." ”
"Oh, look at you, really. You also take such a big thing to heart, why bother. Not to mention that you are unintentional, even if you are intentional, there is nothing between husband and wife that cannot be forgiven. The fight at the head of the bed and the end of the bed are also there, not to mention the two sentences. Forget it, I don't pay much attention to etiquette, and you're not wrong......" Liu Xiu saw that the eldest princess was about to worship again, so he quickly stopped his mouth and slapped himself, "Look at my mouth, it makes you feel more hearty again." Don't talk about it, don't talk about it, tell me, what is the situation in Yizhou, especially the country with poison, has the post road been opened? ”
The eldest princess was indeed a little overhearted, and the more Liu Xiu blamed herself, the more worried she was that Liu Xiu was still hating her words. Seeing Liu Xiu say this, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, covered her pounding heart, and licked her lips: "The body poison country has been found, and the route of the post road has also been determined, but if you want to open it all, the cost is very large, even if it is to the power of rich businessmen in Guanzhong, Liangzhou, and Yizhou, you can raise funds, but it will take a long time, and it is not a one-time effort, and it is still being negotiated." ”
"Well, this is a hundred-year plan, and it's not in a hurry, but it's not beautiful. The lesson of Emperor Xiaowu's opening of the southwest cannot be forgotten, you have done a good job. ”
The eldest princess looked at Liu Xiu carefully, not knowing if he was telling the truth or comforting her in order to save the atmosphere. Liu Xiu touched his chin a little embarrassed: "What, don't believe me?" ”
The eldest princess saw from his eyes that she was as sincere and pure as ever, so she breathed a sigh of relief lightly, and said with some shame: "The concubine has a lot of trouble now, and she has a lot of thoughts in her heart, and she can't be honest with her husband like before, it's really a little ashamed." Husband, what you just said...... I want Mr. Gongxiao to say it, please husband......"
"Alright, alright, that old fox, I don't know him yet. Don't you just want to be a founding hero, and what else do you want him to say, I'm afraid he wants you to say it, you stupid woman, you still learn from other people's scheming, and you don't know if you're sold. If I really have to be so smart, can I still marry you? Liu Xiu held the eldest princess in his arms and patted her shoulder lovingly: "Okay, don't be sold and help count the money." ”
The eldest princess burst out laughing. She also knew that she was not the kind of woman who was extremely smart, otherwise she would not have been helpless by the Guo family's encroachment on the fief. She is also clear about Yan Zhong's ability, Yan Zhong's hope, of course she also understands, otherwise she would not trust him so much and hand over Liu Ye to him for training.
The eldest princess lay down in Liu Xiuzhong, listening to the strong heartbeat, Qingsi was stirred by his breathing, and her nervous mood slowly relaxed. She hesitated for a moment and asked quietly, "What about ...... Husband thinks he's not a good gentleman? ”
Liu Xiu smiled silently, stroked her smooth long hair, thought about it, and said carefully: "Mr. Gongxiao is a genius, and the students he teaches are certainly not bad." However, Ye'er is still young, still a child, is it too early to learn the way of governing the country at such a young age? In the future, when he looks back on his life, he doesn't have a single memory of being wild, will he be a little regretful? ”
The eldest princess savored Liu Xiu's words, and remembered the boredom that Liu Ye often revealed when she was studying, and she was also a little distressed. Liu Xiu said again: "Your Majesty was originally a good qualification, but it's a pity that after entering the palace, he came into contact with the power of "Han Feizi" too early, and now he is thinking about those powers, his thinking has been preconceived, and he will take care of the interests and disadvantages of everything, don't you know that the interests and disadvantages must not be ignored, but if you are too obsessed with the benefits, it is easy to only see the immediate benefits, but you can't see the long-term." If such a person is the head of a family, the family will not be able to prosper forever, and if he is the king of a country, the country will not be able to be peaceful. What a pity. ”
The eldest princess savored Liu Xiu's words, and her heart was determined, since Liu Xiu was dissatisfied with Liu Xie, then he would inevitably make a move, as long as he made a move, Liu Ye would have a chance. She nudged Liu Xiu: "Husband, I'm so scared when you say it." I don't want my karma to be like that. Or, you come to teach, I see that Ah and you have been by your side for a year, and the progress is obvious, and An An's changes are not small, which makes me so envious. ”
Speaking of the last sentence, the eldest princess secretly glanced at Liu Xiu, and Liu Xiu rolled her eyes: "What's wrong with you not being able to speak well?" Do you have to spank to be honest? Knowing that he doesn't have the ability to play scheming, he prefers to follow his example, so he is not afraid to laugh and be generous? ”
The eldest princess was stunned for a moment, then her face flushed with shame, and she fell on Liu Xiu's shoulder and giggled.
