Liu Wu sent Ran Ying to the door of the study, and Ran Ying walked in lightly.

There was a brazier burning in the study, and it was as warm as spring. Yu Wentai was reading the folds in front of the bookcase, and when he heard Ran Ying coming, he didn't raise his head: "It's so cold outside, Imperial Doctor Chen has allowed you to go out?" How do you run around on the ground? ”

He asked, but he didn't raise his head, and he was still holding the pen in his hand, and he was still writing something from time to time.

He originally wanted to go to Lang's Mansion to see her after watching the song, but he heard that she had come to the Prime Minister's Mansion and was stopped by a young man from the Wang family at the door. He was afraid that her seriously injured body would not be able to bear it if she stood in the wind and snow for a long time, so he hurriedly asked Liu Wu to bring her in.

As for the young man who cried and knelt at the door for a long time, he didn't take it to heart.

Ran Ying heard him talking to herself, glanced at him, didn't answer him, reflexively closed the door of the study, took off the Qiu Yu on her body and trembled, and the snowflakes fell on the ground and quickly melted. She hung Qiu Yu on the wooden shelf by the door, sniffed her nose vigorously, and saw that the beast-shaped incense burner next to the bookcase had no green smoke and seemed to be burned out.

Ran Ying walked to the side shelf, took off a small wooden box of red sandalwood on it, walked to the incense burner, opened the incense burner, poured out the incense ashes inside, and brushed the bottom of the stove with a fine brush. Then open the wooden box, take out a drawer under the wooden box, take out a hollow heart mold, and gently place it on the bottom of the furnace; Then remove the lid of the wooden box, and inside is a fine agarwood incense crumb. She scooped up the agarwood crumbs with a small silver spoon, filled the heart-shaped mold little by little, and then took the mold away after it was filled and flattened. The word "heart" in a line of writing appeared at the bottom of the furnace.

Ran Ying lit the incense of the heart word, saw the green smoke rise again, re-covered the incense burner, and put the red sandalwood box back on the shelf.

The room is scented again.

Only then did he turn around and look at Yu Wentai, and said with a smile: "I came to show you my new clothes." ”

Just now, when she was silently lighting incense in the room, Yuwentai stopped what she was doing and looked at her with low eyebrows.

The room was silent, except for small voices as she moved in her hands. The snow is falling outside, the interior is warm like spring, and the beauty of men's clothing is picturesque. Yu Wentai only felt that the years were stable and quiet. At this time, when I heard her say this, I looked carefully, and saw that she was wearing a snow-white robe with narrow sleeves and collared brocade, with a thin circle of sable wool rolling around the edge and cuffs of the robe, and a belt embroidered with silver thread was tied around her waist, and a jade ring was hung.

"How?" She asked smugly, spreading her sleeves.

Her injured shoulder had moved freely, and the injury should have healed, but the person looked a little thinner and needed careful care.

Yuwentai frowned, a little helpless: "I gave you this brocade and sable wool because I want you to be a woman's clothes to wear." Why are you so spoiling good things? ”

"How did I spoil the good stuff? Isn't that also wearing it on me! Made into women's clothing, I don't know if I can wear it in the Year of the Monkey! Ran Ying was not convinced.

Yu Wentai didn't say it in his mouth, but he thought in his heart, when the Chinese New Year comes, you are married, and you can still wear men's clothes to swagger outside the market all day long? It's not a waste yet!

Since Qin Zhou came back, this thought has always swirled in his heart, hesitating, thinking and thinking.

Seeing that he was staring at him and not speaking, Ran Ying followed him in two steps and asked coquettishly, "Is it good-looking?" ”

Yu Wentai looked at her eyes flickering at herself, her eyes were full of the willfulness and coquettishness of a little girl, and a pampering joy welled up in her heart, and she couldn't help laughing and said, good-looking.

Ran Ying walked up to him with satisfaction, rolled up her sleeves and took the gilded ink block on the case, and gently grinded it for him.

While grinding, he asked, "Is there anything going on lately?" ”

"It's almost the end of the year, and all over the country are busy with the New Year's greetings, what else can I do?" Yu Wentai replied nonchalantly.

"And what are you up to?" Ran Ying curiously leaned over to see what he was writing.

Seeing that she was interested, Yu Wentai put down his pen and looked up at her, and said: "When I was in Qinzhou, I ordered Su Rang to draw up measures and suggestions for some current problems, and he brought them when you were lying at home a while ago, and I have been changing them these days." Some of the suggestions were very good and won my heart. “

"What's going on?"

"Guanzhong is in the eastern part of the country, the land is barren, there is a shortage of materials, and every time I fight, whether it is troops or food and grass, it is a headache for me. The day before yesterday, Su Rang came, and talked to me here for a long time about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's crusade against the Xiongnu. ”

"Why do you talk about this?"

"To win the confrontation with Gao Huan, you can only rely on fighting. But the war is fought by the economy. In order to expand the number of soldiers, to ensure supplies in the event of war, the country must have money. The reason why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was able to fight with the Xiongnu for decades and finally drove the Xiongnu to the north was because of the wealth accumulated by the rule of Wenjing. ”

"I see." Ran Ying lowered her head and thought for a while, and said, "Then you also want to develop the economy?" I don't understand that. How can we develop the economy? ”

"Agriculture is the foundation of the country, and to develop the economy, we must persuade agriculture and reward farming. I am ready to restore the system of equalizing the land, and the whole country will be punished, but those who can handle agricultural tools will be ordered to work in the fields, and there will be rewards and punishments. Speaking of this, he stopped, smiled and said, "I won't tell you this, you have finally recovered well, and it is too boring to talk about this as soon as you come." ”

He took out a copy of the paper and handed it to her, saying, "Why don't you look at this?" ”

Ran Ying opened it and took a look. This is the Honglu Temple's guest Cao Shangshu Lu Dongliang wrote, said that recently received the Rouran Khan Yu Jiulu Anapu of the letter of state, in order to establish friendship between the two countries, willing to match the eldest daughter Princess Rosewood with the Great Wei Emperor, with 700 cars, 10,000 horses, 1,000 camels as a dowry, a hundred years of marriage, with one heart and one mind.

"That's a good thing." Ran Ying put down the ink block in her hand, walked to the map on the wall, looked up, and said, "Forming an alliance with Rouran, at least the north can be temporarily stabilized." Moreover, last year, the Supreme just married Princess Huazheng to Anuta Han of Anapu, Gao Huan married Anapu's second daughter, Princess Worm, and now if you don't allow this marriage, the north and east are only afraid to join forces. ”

She looked at the map seriously, her eyes went from north to south, and from east to west little by little, and finally her eyes fell on Shudi.

She smiled, looked back at Yuwentai, stretched out her hand to point to Chengdu on the map, and said, "Have you thought about it here?" ”

Thought. Yu Wentai said in his heart. But the mouth said: "Chengdu? ”

Ran Ying shook her head proudly: "When the ancestor of Ji Han (1) visited Wuhou (2) in Longzhong, Wuhou once said that Jingzhou is based on Han in the north, and the South China Sea is used in the west, and Bashu is the country of military use. Wuhou also said that Yizhou is dangerous, fertile for thousands of miles, and the land of Tianfu, because of which Gaozu became the emperor's industry (3). Now that Jingzhou is in your hands, this is your advantage over Gao Huan. And if you have Jingzhou and Yizhou, don't you want it? ”

Yu Wentai also smiled slightly. He looked at Ran Ying's snow-white face and thought, this little guy actually looked the most beautiful when he was talking about the world.

The land of Shu is fertile and the products are abundant, and he has long had the idea of annexing Yizhou. But Gao Huan in the east, Liang Guo in the south, and Rouran in the north, he really didn't dare to rush west. He's waiting for his moment.

Although he also understands that Rouran and Chang'an Yecheng have in-laws, they are just taking advantage of the left and right. But as the alliance with Rouran becomes stronger, perhaps the right time will arise.

"It's too early to think about Yizhou." He said.

"What about after the alliance with Rouran? Is it possible to let Rou Ran contain Gao Huan? ”

"An alliance with Rouran...... But Yu Jiulu asked for the queen's throne for his daughter. He looked at Ran Ying, of course he knew the stakes of all parties involved in this marriage, and he brought this matter out just to test Ran Ying's attitude.

Ran Ying frowned: "This will be difficult. The Supreme already has the queen Yi Fushi, is it going to be abolished? She looked at Yuwentai.

He looked at her and nodded: "That's what it means, I find it difficult." The Supreme was also hesitant. ”

Today's Empress Yi Fu is not only beautiful, but also frugal and forgiving, and the emperor loves her very much. Now that the loving and beautiful marriage has to face the trampling of cruel politics, others feel unbearable when they think about it, and I don't know what the emperor and empress feel in their hearts now.

Ran Ying thought for a while and said, "If Empress Yifu understands the righteousness and focuses on the overall situation, it is naturally best to abdicate and move to another palace." Then the Supreme doesn't have to be embarrassed, and you don't have to be embarrassed. But in this case, Empress Yifu is too aggrieved. I've heard that she has a good relationship with Supreme. ”

Yu Wentai smiled slightly. She was thinking about it from his point of view.

Ran Ying suddenly sighed, walked back to the bookcase in frustration, and said, "It's really boring to be a woman, whether it is the queen or Zheng Da's wife, it's the same. Sacrifice for her husband everywhere. ”

Yu Wentai looked at her snow-white and pretty little face, and suddenly asked her: "If so, Yu Jiulu wants to marry the princess to me, what do you think I should do?" ”

Ran Ying smiled slyly and said, "The prime minister is unmarried, so naturally there is no trouble that the Supreme is facing now, so what is there to scruple about?" You can dedicate yourself to your country with joy. ”

Dedication to the country...... Body?

Yu Wentai felt that his liver was aching again.

was about to have a seizure, but saw Ran Ying tilting her head to look at him, pouting and saying slowly: "Black otter, black otter, I really wish you were a woman and I am a man." If I were a man, I would never ask you such a question. I will definitely love only one of you, spoil only one, and marry only one of you. Even if I give up the whole country, I won't leave you. ”

A smile crept up on Yuwentai's face, and she finally said what she wanted.

This cunning little guy is openly pleasing him, but secretly he is using these words to squeeze him. She wanted to tell him that she was unhappy with his question.

He gently took her hand and said with a smile, "Lone knows." ”

The day before yesterday, the emperor summoned him to the palace and officially told him that he wanted to marry Princess Gaoping. He told the emperor that the marriage was a matter of consideration, and that he should think carefully for two days. Only then did I come back to see Ran Ying's attitude.

Only love her, spoil her, marry her.

This little thing is quite demanding.

As soon as she walked out of the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ran Ying beckoned Liu Wu and asked with a dark face, "Who does Rouran Khan want to marry his daughter to?" ”

"Marry the Supreme." Liu Wu looked confused, "Didn't the prime minister tell Lord Changshi?" ”

"Really?" Ran Ying looked at him suspiciously.

"It's true. Now the face is arguing. Some people advocate the abolition of Empress Yifu, and some advocate rejection. However, the prime minister has not yet made a statement. ”

Ran Ying scratched her head. I always feel that Yuwentai asked that word today has another meaning. Is it because you are thinking too much?

Liu Wu looked at the back of Ran Ying leaving, and whispered to He Louqi: "Ah Qi, have you found it, since I came back from Qinzhou, Xiao Ah Ran pulled the prime minister into his bowl." In the past, she would never have asked such a question. ”

He Louqi smiled mysteriously: "I'm curious, what did you say happened when they were trapped in the private mine?" ”
