Chapter 310: Courtship and Unattainable (Chapter 1)
When the king of Wei destroyed Anxia, he was full of ambition, he would not have expected that Anxia would be chaotic for many years under his rule, and he also thought about supporting one of the forces to manage Anxia for him and harvest money, which was the most economical way, but each time it ended in failure. As a result, it became extremely expensive for Wei to garrison Anxia to suppress the uprising. So many soldiers want food and shelter, clothes and money, armor and weapons are broken and they have to be repaired, and they have to be compensated when they die.
In a word, the management cost is too high to make ends meet.
Fighting a war is the most money-burning thing in the world, but even if the newly established New Xia State is defeated, what will the Wei State gain? It is nothing more than the Anxia region, which is as chaotic as before, and the same territory that cannot squeeze oil and water.
"The old King Wei did not let go because the central and eastern parts of Anxia were rich in minerals, which could make up for the lack of Wei. However, the distance from the mining area to Wei is too high, and the transportation cost is too high, and we intercept it in the middle. Feng Miaojun added, "Now that Wei has made an agreement with a number of small countries in the south and overseas to import minerals, there is no need to travel thousands of miles to seize minerals from Xinxia." "She and Yun Jie went to the capital to pretend to be envoys from small countries on the sea, but the country did trade with the Wei state, and the goods were still minerals, weapons, and so on.
There are many small countries like Yulang that do business with Wei.
"That's the truth. Fu Lingchuan nodded, "In the short term, at least when the Wei State is not in chaos, it has no interest in Xinxia." On the contrary, if Xiao Jing, the prince of Wei, is alive, he may cause us a lot of trouble. ”
Feng Miaojun let out a long "oh" and understood.
If Xiao Jing raises the banner of rebellion and stands on his own, he is likely to use the Anxia he is familiar with as a base to resist stubbornly, then he will infringe on Xinxia's territory.
Feng Miaojun laughed: So, should she thank Xiao Yan and the general Helian Jia who chopped off Xiao Jing's head with a knife?
It's no wonder that Fu Lingchuan will be tempted by her proposal to move the capital, and her feelings have already calculated many of these twists and turns.
She had already eaten, holding up a golden cup and sipping sherbet.
From Fu Lingchuan's point of view, the soon-to-be-seventeen-year-old queen has an elegant face and soft lines that make people want to raise their wrists to caress it. The little hands became more and more slender and white against the background of the golden cup, and they showed a little helplessness.
Her beauty and chances are really like canaries in a cage.
Fu Lingchuan had eaten at the same table with her at least a hundred times, and despite his efforts to restrain himself, there was still a thought in his heart that became clearer and clearer. Taking advantage of the relaxed atmosphere at the moment, he pondered for a while before whispering, "Changle, I have something to ask you." ”
"Huh?" Feng Miaojun noticed that he leaned forward slightly, which was a sign of Fu Lingchuan's full attention, but she still smiled, "Cousin has something to say." ”
Somehow, he was nervous, and secretly took a breath before asking her, "Do you have someone in mind?"
This question was a little unexpected, Feng Miaojun Danfeng blinked twice before he sighed: "We have words first, and my marriage is autonomous." ”
"If it weren't for that, why would I be perfunctory to King Yan in Taiping City?" Fu Lingchuan stroked his forehead and said, "Just ask." ”
She raised her glass and took a sip, and a figure suddenly flashed in her mind, and the handsome and bewitching face seemed to occupy a full frame in her field of vision.
Could this be her intended person? No, no! Feng Miaojun shook her head in fright.
Fu Lingchuan saw her action, only when her answer was no, he was happy in his heart, and said softly: "Changle, I like you." ”
She glared slightly, and there was a moment of frustration: "Huh?"
"I've been pleasing to you for a long time. Fu Lingchuan's voice was softer, as if he was afraid of scaring her, "If you have no one else in your heart, please marry me?"
He can also say that the combination of the two can make Xinxia stronger, and the queen marries the national teacher, and the unstable factors will be eliminated; he can also say that Changle can immediately hold real power if he marries him, and he no longer has to deal with hundreds of officials; he can even say that Changle can immediately enjoy the long-awaited freedom when he marries him.
He just felt that these reasons might not all work with Feng Miaojun, so he only said that he liked it.
He really likes it, it's completely different from the feeling Fei Yuan brought him.
Feng Miaojun had recovered from his surprise, then tilted his head sideways, and suddenly smiled: "Cousin doesn't want Yan Guo's support anymore?"
King Yan is bent on letting her marry his son in order to control Xinxia. If Fu Lingchuan marries the queen by stealing himself, he will openly tear his face with King Yan.
"From the moment we sneaked out of Taiping City, I didn't expect Yan Guo to help in the future. Fu Lingchuan's face was calm, "For Changle, it's worth it." ”
This person was reminding her that in order to fulfill the agreement of "marriage autonomy", did he not hesitate to offend King Yan? However, Feng Miaojun still admired his ability to say love words.
She sat up straight and said, "However, I don't have a relationship with my cousin. ”
When she said this, her eyes were clear, her expression was firm, and there was not the slightest wavering or confusion. Fu Lingchuan's throat was dry, he opened his mouth, and he didn't say anything for a while.
For the first time in my life, I was rejected by a girl I liked, and it was very uncomfortable.
But he soon found his voice: "Really, not at all?"
She shook her head and said categorically, "I'm sorry, no. ”
Fu Lingchuan let out a long breath, unconcealing the frustration in his heart. But he still cheered up and said: "It's okay, as long as Changle doesn't have a crush on someone, I still have a chance." He drank all the wine in his glass and stood up, "If you still have to deal with government affairs, I'll take the first step." With that, he left the table.
Feng Miaojun didn't stand up to send him off, but still sat and drank the sherbet in the pot little by little, and then returned to the hall.
Fu Lingchuan actually confessed to her?
The slaves and maids around all stepped back, and the whiteboard squeaked in her ear: "You can't marry him, mistress!"
"Be quiet!" Her ears were about to be deafened, and she said deliberately, "Why not?" I think Fu Lingchuan is a good choice, this person is handsome, shrewd, personable, far-sighted, calm and calm, and is a good couple and son-in-law in the minds of many girls. ”
"He wants to marry you in order to monopolize the power of Xinxia!"
"How do you know?" Feng Miaojun touched his face, "Isn't it because of my beauty?"
"Uh......" The whiteboard choked, is this the black of the near-ink?
"Then what are his shortcomings?" As a national teacher, Fu Lingchuan can only rightfully control the power of Xinxia if he marries the queen, right? But for those in power, how many people's feelings are so simple that they have no motives and no selfish desires?
This is not a serious pure love romance.
