Chapter 161: True Appearance
The emperor's definition of this trip is a light car.
Under the holy decree, the ministers naturally did not dare to disobey it, and it was only a few cabinet adults who came to see them off, and the emperor only allowed them to go back at the gate of the city.
After that, he drove and rode straight to the outskirts of the city.
Only Liao Zhanyu, the first assistant of the cabinet, and a dozen or so guards with high kung fu in Ouchi followed.
Liao Zhanyu was a little puzzled by the emperor's route, sitting in the carriage, although he was silent, he was puzzled.
Zhang was originally going to go in a separate car with Liao Zhanyu and sit alone with Calm.
But it's troublesome to be calm, I'm afraid that I'll get lost with Lord Shoufu, and then Liao Zhanyu will charge her with extravagance, and the ministers of the joint cabinet will be involved in her capital crime, and she will really die.
Zhang laughed at her for worrying, but she was calm but she just refused to change her original intention, and she had to change into men's clothes and go in the same car with them.
Zhang couldn't screw her, so he had to follow her.
Liao Zhanyu is not the first time to witness the brilliance of this noble concubine, so he is not surprised, although he sits opposite her, he only closes his eyes and recuperates, and he looks like a proud old pedant.
Calm because of his tax policy of substituting silver for goods, he admired Liao Zhanyu's wisdom very much, and had the heart to talk to him.
After a few words, Liao Zhanyu couldn't help but be in awe of the noble concubine in front of him.
This woman's insight is really not ordinary, and she sees things more thoroughly than him, a three-generation elder, such as the tax policy he newly studied.
He only thought about the benefits that this strategy would bring to Great Xia, but calmly saw the troubles caused by the benefits.
And if these troubles are not solved, they will surely become the biggest stumbling block hindering the development of Great Xia.
"Lord Shousuke, these are just the words of my family, the emperor said that I am a person who is too worried, just listen to it, don't take it seriously."
In the end, calm and not forget to be humble and put an end to this polemic.
Liao Zhanyu twisted his beard and nodded again and again: "Niangniang's theory is clear and clear, it goes straight to the old man's heart, and makes the old man enlightened, it's not simple, it's really not simple." ”
Zhang, who was an audience, only then did he interject and smile: "Lord Liao doesn't need to flatter her too much, it's just a woman's opinion, and it may not be able to enter your ears." ”
"The emperor is bad, the words of the mother are good words, high, really high." Liao Zhanyu made a solo album in the chapter, and he was colorful.
As he spoke, the carriage stopped.
Liao Zhanyu opened the curtain suspiciously and looked out.
"Shousuke wait a minute, I will come when I go with calm." Zhang smiled at him.
Liao Zhanyu nodded slightly, respectfully leaned inward, and let the two of them get out of the car.
Sima Nan's grave is in front of him.
Squatted down calmly, picked a wild flower from the grass around him and put it on his grave, clapped his hands, stood up, and said in a monotonous voice: "You can go with confidence, I am very good, and the emperor is also very good to me."
You once told me that people have to look forward, go forward, and the memories are just ashes in the heart, and they will slowly disappear.
I remember it, I will keep you in my heart, and maybe I will turn to ashes and no longer remember you. ”
Zhang stood behind her, listening to her say this, his eyes showed a smug light, and the corners of his mouth were smiling triumphantly.
Calmly patted the dust on his hands, raised the fan in his hand, and chased a butterfly.
Zhang slowly walked to the grave, opened the wine jar in his hand, spilled the wine on the ground, and said in a cruel sneer, "Sima Nan, you are the son of a village girl, and you are also worthy of being listed as the queen of the royal family?" Master Liao is really exalting you too much, and you are too arrogant, it is ridiculous to want to be a brother with me, do you only realize when you are dying, you are just a tool for me to ascend to the top.
You see, your woman has now fallen in love with me, she has become my woman, I will treat her well, she is so sweet, you haven't eaten it once?
Then I ate her for you, I will taste her well, squeeze her dry, and let her surrender to my feet for the rest of her life, hahaha。。。。。。 ”
Zhang's laughter was presumptuous, attracting a calm side glance.
He quickly realized that he had lost his temper, withdrew his unbearable voice, and looked up to look calm, who had followed the butterfly far away, leaving only a pale figure.
Zhang stretched out his hand and pinched his chin, changed his face with sadness, lost the wine jar in his hand, and went to chase calm.
Calmly holding a colored butterfly in his hand, he met him not far behind the grave.
Zhang's sad expression and sad tone: "Calm down, do you want to say a few more words to him, is this butterfly caught for him?" It's beautiful. ”
"No, I've been with him for a long time, and I don't know what he likes, this butterfly is really beautiful, does the emperor like it? Give it to the emperor. Calmly handed the butterfly to Zhang.
Zhang showed a frightened smile and took it carefully: "I will give it to the guards in a while, and make a cage to keep it safe, this is the first gift you gave me." ”
"If you can't feed it, leave the place where it lives, and it won't be long before it dies." He said calmly, and walked straight ahead, without looking at the grave again.
Zhang's eyes were full of satisfaction, caught up with her, and said with a smile: "Then let it go?" Beautiful things or let it live a little longer, do you think it's okay? ”
nodded calmly, his eyes spread into the distance, and his voice was charming: "The emperor is really a benevolent person, it is really a blessing for calmness and a blessing for all the people." ”
Zhang took her hand and walked happily towards the carriage down the mountain.
His pleasure is from the heart, while his calm pleasure is feigned.
Although he couldn't hear what he said, he really saw the evil smile on his face.
It was a malicious laugh, a smug laugh after a treacherous plan had succeeded.
Calm has seen a lot of such smiles, and those who show this kind of smile in front of her have no good end, and their tragic end is all calmly given to them.
————————
Without saying anything all the way, they arrived in Jiangnan smoothly.
Along the way, the calm harvest is Liao Zhanyu's admiration for her.
Liao Zhanyu is a physicist, and he originally looked down on women, if he wasn't really embarrassed by money, he would never take the advice of calming down.
But along the way, Liao Zhanyu couldn't help but fall into admiration for her because of his calm wisdom and erudition, and every time he sweated his clothes.
She often has a very unique view of things, and her evaluation of history is very sharp and in place, and she also talks eloquently about national policies and politics, occasionally puts forward one or two ideas, and is very constructive.
In addition to calmness, it completely subverted this Liao Zhanyu's view of women.
Throughout history, there have been many women who have made a difference in politics, but in Liao Zhanyu's view, it is just because the monarch is cowardly and the courtiers are incompetent.
And the calm wisdom really taught Liao Zhanyu a lesson in not letting women shave their eyebrows, so that he had to bend down the head that had always looked down on women.
His head is lowered, but he feels funny in his heart, the little woman is a little woman after all, even if she is talented, she is always a rat's belly, and from time to time she is coquettish and stupid in front of Zhang, and she doesn't seem to have any ambition that has swelled out of her talent at all.
With her, it is the emperor's luck, and the luck of Daxia,
With her by her side, the emperor will be able to become a generation of Ming monarchs and an emperor through the ages, and Daxia will also enter an unprecedented period of glory.
Liao Zhanyu thought happily.
The carriage walked forward slowly, calmly lifted the curtain, looked outside, pouted in surprise, and pouted: "We don't live in the city, do we want to live in the countryside?" ”
Zhang Haha laughed: "The task of coming to Jiangnan here is to help local officials measure the acres of land, how can I live in the city, I have to personally supervise them, so as to save fraud." ”
"What's so fun in the countryside, the concubine still has to go to Shufangzhai to buy rouge gouache and give it away, this one goes to a hundred miles, you can't buy it if you want to, does the emperor want the concubine to lose her trust?" Calm and unhappy look.
Liao Zhanyu twisted his beard, looking at the calm little woman's posture, and his mood was even happier.
Just now, she was talking about strengthening household registration management, setting up a special household registration department, registering household registration, and forming a nationwide household registration network, so as not to let people take advantage of the opportunity, underreport the head, and pay less taxes and silver. But in the blink of an eye, it was this little child's heart, unhappy because he had to endure hardships.
This woman, although talented, has no ambition, is very comforting.
"Don't worry, I won't let you lose your trust, I promise you, when I'm done with business, I'll accompany you to the city to walk around, buy what you want to buy, and then accompany you to Putuo Mountain to worship the Bodhisattva before returning to Beijing, okay?" Zhang took her into his arms, reached out and scratched her nose, and smiled.
Calmly nodded, but his face was still unhappy.
Seeing this, Zhang smiled again: "I'll be at the place where I'm staying soon, you'll definitely like it, but I won't tell you now, you'll know when you get out of the car." ”
"I just don't like living in the country anyway." Calmly roll your eyes.
Liao Zhanyu laughed: "Niangniang, you don't like the countryside, but will there be someone you like in the countryside?" ”
Take a look at a chapter calmly.
Zhang Tan spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "Lord Liao, you can't get along with me, I still expect to surprise her." ”
"How can there be someone I like in the countryside, there is almost the same that the emperor likes, I am used to seeing rich peony flowers, and occasionally picking a few wild flowers is quite innovative." Roll your eyes calmly and at the right time, and snort.
Zhang and Liao Zhanyu glanced at each other and laughed.
After another hour or so, the car stopped in front of a farmhouse that looked like a leisurely and peaceful place.
The courtyard has been covered by fences for ten miles, and a woman with a plainly dressed and noble attitude led a group of people to kneel beside the road on both sides of the manor, shouting long live long live.
Liao Zhanyu got off the car first, and then a cadre of guards and palace maids stepped forward, surrounded the carriage, and surrounded the emperor and the concubine Niangniang to get out of the car.
Calmly, I saw Guan Yong kneeling on the ground from a distance, and my heart that had been suppressed was also a little happy.
Guan Yong looked ruddy and plump, not like he had suffered or missed his old man, which made him happy and sad at the same time.
Because you don't love it, you won't miss it for a long time, will you?
