Chapter 244 Confidentiality

Yongning had the foresight to refuse to appear in the outer hall with Li Zhi, and insisted on taking a firm stance and leaving Li Zhi to take full responsibility for facing his children at an embarrassing moment. Although Li Zhi was also extremely embarrassed in his heart, after all, he himself was the initiator of the matter, and Yongning's flushed cheeks made him very reluctant, so he could only force a calm appearance to go out to send Li Cong and Qin Hua.

As soon as Li Cong saw Li Zhi come out of the inner hall, the little face that had faded away suddenly showed a bloody appearance again, although the attitude of Li Zhi when he greeted him was still respectful, but anyone could see that this child was hiding great dissatisfaction in his heart.

Qin Hua still looked like a problem princess, and after following Li Cong's side and meeting Li Zhi, as if she hadn't heard the dry cough that Li Zhi made when she was about to speak, she habitually threw herself into Li Zhi's arms, hugged his neck and asked, "Father, where is the mother?" Is it hurt? Do you want to ask the imperial doctor to take a look? In her beautiful phoenix eyes, there was a little worry, a little bit of fear, and of course, there was also a complaint against Li Zhi.

Li Zhi had been preparing his opening remarks for a long time just now, and he was suddenly scattered by Qin Hua's words, even though he had already done a good job of psychological construction, he still couldn't help but drift his eyes - his daughter's pure little eyes were too strong in attack, and he didn't dare to look at them directly.

Li Zhi was embarrassed in his heart, and he paused in his words, but Qin Hua was so frightened by his silence that he cried "Wow-", jumped from Li Zhi's arms with the same rapid movement, and then rushed to the inner hall without stopping at all.

Although Li Cong was also startled by Qin Hua's cry, he instinctively grabbed Qin Hua when he passed by him. Although he didn't think about why when he stretched out his hand, when he grabbed Qin Hua and leaned over to hold her in his arms, he suddenly figured it out - the direction Qin Hua went to was the inner hall, and Yongning was resting in the inner hall at the moment

Li Cong can understand the reason why Yongning did not appear at this time, and it is precisely because of this that he is dissatisfied with Li Zhi, who seems to be indifferent, he takes it for granted that this is a manifestation that Li Zhi does not care about Yongning, if he really takes Yongning to heart, where would he do such a thing to give people a handle and put Yongning in danger? He believed that Yongning must be unwilling to see him and Qinhua at this moment, even if they were as close as mother and son, such a private matter would not be easy to announce, but today he was broken by Qinhua, and he could still imagine this embarrassment......

Li Cong thought he glared at Li Zhi secretly, and then coaxed Qin Hua, and in a few words, he took out Qin Hua's words, it turned out that this little girl would be wrong because of Li Zhi's silence, thinking that Yongning was seriously injured, so she ......

Li Zhi actually wanted to coax his daughter, but the two children seemed to be angry with him, and they were usually spoiled by him so that they were less afraid of other princes and princesses, so they all put on a look of unwillingness to pay attention to him, but fortunately, Li Cong didn't want Yongning to be too embarrassed, so he still stopped Qin Hua's intention to go to the inner hall to visit Yongning. While quietly breathing a sigh of relief, Li Zhi calmly put on a strict father's posture and drove the two children out cleanly.

By the time Li Zhi returned to the inner hall again, Yongning had already sat neatly dressed in front of the long table and set up the wine and food. Li Zhi sat down next to Yongning, held her hand, and said with grievances: "These two children are really spoiled by us, and they dare to lose their temper at me and stare at me...... It's obviously something that the two of us did together, why did they blame me for all the faults? It's really in vain that I hurt them so much on weekdays, but I actually treated them like this at a critical moment......"

The flush on Yongning's face that had just subsided, was hooked by Li Zhi's words again, he pulled out his hand and twisted it in a circle around Li Zhi's waist, glared at him fiercely, and said, "What is it called something that the two of us did together?" It's you...... You ......" In the end, she is not as cheeky as Li Zhi, and some words are unspeakable, but this tone and expression accurately express the resentment in her heart.

Li Zhi didn't seem to see Yongning's resentment, he actually laughed, and his mood, which had been heavy and depressed, was disturbed by today's very embarrassing farce, which actually made him relax all of a sudden. The predictable ambitions, the confidantes who are accompanied by each other, and even the children who will be angry with him, make him feel very beautiful.

Yongning is also very happy for Li Zhi in her heart, she knows too little about the governance of a country, and the help she can give Li Zhi is even more limited. And Yongning has always had a shortcoming that she tried her best to hide and not let people discover - she has a soul that has received modern Western education since she was a child, and many times she instinctively cannot understand and accept the thinking mode of the Oriental people during the Tang Dynasty, even if she has the knowledge and insight beyond this era, but she does not dare to speak easily to the country.

She knows very well where the bottom line of her ability lies, and she can still control some small things, but for those far-reaching big things, she has absolutely no way to control them, and the difference in thinking patterns means that she has no way to accurately predict and estimate the consequences of her ideas that are beyond this era, whether they are positive or negative. Those who cannot correctly weigh gains and losses are not qualified to stand in the position of commander.

However, although Yongning can't stand in the position of commander to do something, she has always been an extremely competent guide. She has put a lot of effort into finding her own position, and she has also accustomed the people around her to her unique way of doing things - finding out problems, setting goals, and then handing them over to others to implement and improve......

She has always shown the image of a wise man with flaws, and no one who knows her will underestimate her intelligence, but they will also see her shortcomings in their eyes and take them to heart. An imperfect person is the one who can be trusted with confidence.

Li Zhi likes to discuss all kinds of issues with Yongning, because he can feel that this kind of discussion is equal, unlike the so-called "discussion" between him and others, which is more like his unilateral consultation. The more external pressure, the greater the importance of Yongning to him, and unconsciously it has become an inseparable part of his life.

Yongning also has the advantage that when it is time to walk away quietly, it will never pester. Just like at this time, she knew that all Li Zhi's thoughts must have been placed on Fang Xuanling's note on the reform of the military system, so she didn't keep him much, but she also took the opportunity to express her concern about the standardization of paper media and the hydraulic movable type printing project, and then smoothly got the right to consult and inspect at any time.

Li Zhi is actually very happy that Yongning can pay more attention to these two things, although after Fang Xuanling's plan, these two things are no longer the top priority in his heart, but these days with Yongning's communication still makes him understand the importance of the existence of these two things for the future development of Datang. With Yongning watching from the side, he was naturally relieved, if there was any problem in the middle, he also believed that Yongning had the ability to correct and improve it in time......

Compared with the emergence of paper media, the advent of hydraulic movable type printing is more eye-catching. Knowledgeable people such as Fang Xuanling naturally understand the meaning behind it, and they have even imagined that maybe in a few decades, everyone in Datang will be able to read and write. Therefore, under the pressure of such a group of big people with ideas and expectations, the Ministry of Industry was ordered to undertake the relevant personnel of the experimental hydraulic movable type printing project, and they were once again driven to the shelves and put on the shelf, that is, to reduce the cost of paper

The materials used in Tang paper are still in the development stage, and those cheap production materials have not yet been discovered, but some related ideas have been proposed, but everything is still in the process of exploration. Because Yongning had already obtained Li Zhi's permission, every two or three days, he would take Li Cong and Qin Hua out of the palace to visit the experimental site of the Ministry of Industry.

In the process of visiting, Yongning unexpectedly found that many people from other parts of the country could actually travel freely in a place like the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Industry actually had special staff to accompany the explanation, and the content of this explanation was also taboo-free, and there was no sense of confidentiality at all

Li Cong sensitively discovered Yongning's worries and displeasure at the first time, and he could also guess the source of Yongning's negative emotions, but the deep reason was not something he could understand. Adhering to the good habit of asking questions if he didn't understand, Li Cong quietly asked the doubts in his heart when he saw Li Zhi. Li Cong, who received Confucian education in Hongwen Hall, although Fang Xuanling opened a small stove to comment on "Zhenguan Political Leaders", as well as Yongning's obscure "Treatise on the Monarch" education, after all, he was still young, and he did not have the insight to learn and apply it, and it was not easy to find problems from it.

It's just that Li Zhi can't understand Yongning's abnormality, what is it for, and after simply prevaricating Li Cong, Li Zhi put down the affairs in his hand and went to talk to Yongning.

Li Zhi's original intention was actually just to relieve Yongning's worries, but when Yongning frowned and said what he was worried about, Li Zhi himself was also deeply worried, and he was also very concerned about the matter that Yongning proposed about secrecy.

As a result, Li Zhi's advisory group, which has been busy recently, is half sad and half bright, and has another far-reaching work that needs to be completed seriously......
