Volume 2: Mountains Have Trees and Trees Have Branches One, Two, Two: Yanqing

"Nothing." Zhang Yan turned around with him, still facing him, but reached behind her back and stuffed the lacquer box into the wide sleeve of her left hand.

"Really?" Liu Ying asked slowly, not annoyed, but with some understanding and laughter.

Under such a gaze, she felt that she was so childish that she had nothing to do, and her fingers were twisted together, slightly embarrassed.

"Come over here, then." He commanded. When the little girl walked up to him, he reached out and pulled her sleeve out from behind her.

The spring is getting warmer, and she is wearing a white and green edge single dress, with long sleeves and wide skirts, which is enough to hide a lacquer box, but no matter how she does, she can't show no traces at all. The cuffs of her left hand with the box were flipped up, revealing a piece of snow-white skin, which slipped off in an instant, still carrying the fragrance of the new bath. Zhang Yan snorted slightly, her cheeks flushed.

He didn't seem to notice, looked left and right, and saw Mu Xi standing on the side, so he ordered, "You wait to help the lady dry her hair." ”

Mu Xi bowed his knees in response, and stepped forward with a white handkerchief on his side.

I really treat her like a child. Zhang Yan pursed her lips slightly. The corners of his lips couldn't help but rise.

Thirteen years old is the peak of the girl's development, she is not tall enough, the white towel is long and absorbent, and the movement of the wooden tree wiping is very gentle, the veil is wide enough, covering half of her face, giving her a semi-secret space, no need to hide the expression on her face, beautiful eyes purr, proudly counting, "one, two, three......

There was the sound of Suo Suo behind her, and when she counted to seven, Liu Yinghuo stood up, "Ah Yan, what is this?" The voice was excited.

"It's justβ€”paper." She replied slowly, turned around, and brushed the handkerchief from her face. A pair of bright apricot eyes were revealed.

"My father is also a lover of books, and he deeply felt the inconvenience of bamboo slips and silks, so he developed this kind of good paper that can be written for a long time, and I am willing to dedicate it to Your Majesty." Zhang Yan muttered.

"It's rare for my brother-in-law to have this heart." Liu Ying sighed and put the purple frost rabbit pen back on the pen holder. "I should really thank him."

"Hey." She laughed softly, took the "Mencius" chapter that he had just written on the new paper, and begged, "Your Majesty will give it to Ah Yan?" ”

"That's not worth much." Liu Ying didn't care and said, "I'm just writing casually." ”

"It's not worth it." Zhang Yan raised his voice. "This is His Majesty's first ink treasure written on good paper, and of course it is of great commemorative significance."

Liu Ying smiled, "If you love it, you want it." It's just that. Ah Yan," he asked slowly, "it's a good thing that this good paper is produced. Fit, why bother to hide it from me? ”

"I didn't want to hide it from Your Majesty." Zhang Yan pursed her lips slightly and said. "It's just that the time hasn't come yet, and besides, the paper isn't good enough. I want to copy another batch of better hand-made paper and send it to His Majesty for a purpose. ”

"Is the time yet? When? Liu Yingqi said.

"That." She was stunned, and lowered her head to look down at the cloud grass embroidery on the bow of the silk shoes, "Isn't it the day of His Majesty's crowning soon?" I was going to show it to you then. ”

"Who knows." She said angrily, "You came over suddenly without saying hello, and I was in a hurry." There's nowhere to hide. ”

Liu Ying was stunned.

He turned around and looked at Zhang Yan's side cheek.

Her eyelashes were slightly curled and long like a fan, and her skin was a very pink white, with almost no pores on it. It is full of youthful breath, and it is like the fragrance of apricot blossoms blooming in the spring breeze.

Ah Yan has always been very beautiful. And that was a long time before him. I knew it when I saw the crying girl in front of Changle Palace for the first time.

Ah Yan is also very smart. She likes to look at the world with cold eyes, think about it in her heart, but never show it on her face. If it weren't for herself, she would rarely really come out.

But even so, as an elder, he always felt that she was just a child.

In the previous absurd wedding farce, he tried his best to persuade his mother to ask Sister A, but he never opened his mouth to ask her, Ayan, would you like to marry me?

All the while, he ignored her opinion.

Subconsciously, he thinks that she is completely passive in this marriage.

She passively heard Empress Lu mention the big wedding, she passively followed Lu Yuan to avoid returning to Xuanping, she passively accepted the arrangement of her grandmother and mother, she ...... passively, dressed up, stepped on the ink car to welcome his relatives, married into Weiyang Palace, married his uncle, and became a thirteen-year-old little queen.

He always thought that she didn't understand enough of the sadness in it.

Ah Yan, what do you want?

Liu Ying opened her mouth and wanted to ask something, but in the end she found that she couldn't speak, so she only said, "Thank you for your thoughts." ”

"I like this gift very much. Actually, that's pretty good. I am waiting with you to see the progress of the paper, and when it is finally settled, I will be happier than seeing the last paper at the beginning. ”

Zhang Yan was stunned, then nodded with a big "um", and smiled her eyes into a pair of crooked crescents.

Ah Yan, don't be too obsessed.

The warm years in this Jiaofang Palace, I am actually very nostalgic. However, if you live like this for the rest of your life, it will become a kind of torture for you.

One day, you'll hate me.

Liu Ying almost felt a painful tenderness coiling in her chest, unable to swallow or spit out. Reluctantly calmed down, and said with a smile, "Coincidentally, I suddenly thought of the solution to the thing you said that day, so I couldn't wait for Youshi, so I hurried over." ”

Zhang Yan was stunned for a moment, angry and funny, and said softly, "Your Majesty has been worrying about this matter for the past few days?" ”

"Hmm." Liu Ying stood up and paced, "I have always had a vague feeling, but I can't grasp the crux of the problem. You have to say that as the lord of the world, I naturally have to think of a solution. ”

"Oh?" She knew that he regarded it as suffering, but also took pleasure in it, so she admired it steadily. Kneeling on the couch and looking up at him, "Your Majesty has thought of something?" The chin is bright.

His gaze swept over the bamboo scrolls on the bookshelves in the hall, and then looked at the new paper folded into a stack on the table, "When Emperor Qin was burning, he burned books and pit Confucianism, and made a book law. Hanxing. Xiao He set the law of nine chapters, but did not abolish the law of coercion. In recent years, although the people of the Han Dynasty have worked hard to survive the food and clothing, they have rarely been able to learn to read and read books as they did during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. I want to abolish the law of coercion. ”

"Hmm." Zhang Yan couldn't help but smile and nodded, "Removing the coercion of the book law is naturally the first step to solve the problem. ”

"So, Ah Yan supports the elimination of the book law?"

"Why not? Except for it a long time ago. Zhang Yan said with a smile, "Emperor Qin is afraid that Confucianism will be chaotic. Therefore, the burning of books and the pit of Confucianism finally subverted his Great Qin Jiangshan, whether it was Chen Sheng. Wu Guang, or the overlord of Western Chu, or the first emperor, which one is the one who reads? It can be seen that it is completely unreliable.

He sharpens weapons and casts gold. Burning books and pit Confucianism is to weaken the power of the people and do the policy of fooling the people. However, he did not think that no matter how smart the people were, there was one thing that they could figure out without reading

- Do they have any rice in the rice bowl tomorrow? I can't live anymore. Thousands of years ago, Dayu knew that it was better to block than to sparse. The mouth of the people is more important than the Sichuan. The heart of defending the people is still excessive. The foolish people began to fool the people, and in the end they only fooled themselves. The tide rises and the tide rises, and I prefer the latter. ”

"Ah Yan," Liu Ying was stunned for a moment and praised. "Supposedly, I grew up watching you, too. I don't know how you grew up like this. A lot of things. Scholars may not be able to figure it out, but you can always inadvertently hit the nail on the head and whip into it. ”

"Ahh Zhang Yan suddenly felt that her face was hot, and muttered, "How can people be so good." ”

"It's already good." He looked at her with a smile and said, "So, in Ah Yan's opinion, what should I do next?" ”

She still showed her dignified appearance in front of the person, "That's something Your Majesty and Xiangguo have to worry about, Ah Yan is a harem lady, it's not easy to do-"

"Less of this." Liu Ying intercepted her and said, "You just said that removing the book law is only the first step to be done, so you can see what to do in the future, you have a way in your heart." I am so close to you, do you need to hide it from me? ”

She thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Then, I said something wrong, Your Majesty can't laugh at me?" ”

He already smiled, and replied, "Naturally." ”

She took a pen, drew a pool of water on the paper, and made a river, looked up and asked Liu Yingdao, "There is a Cangchi in Weiyang Palace, and a wine pond in Changle Palace." Your Majesty knows why the water of these two pools is clear all year round? ”

"Yes," replied Liu Ying, "because there is a flying canal that leads the water from the water, flows through the second pond, and finally flows into the Wei River." ”

"That's right." Zhang Yan bowed, "The Han courtier system and the people of the world are like the Cangchi to the Weishui River, what Your Majesty has to do is to find a flying canal to introduce living water for the officials." It is inexhaustible. And the people of the world have a right way to advancement, even if they are dissatisfied with the government and politics, they can also participate in and influence the government with their own ability. I won't take the risk of thinking about the opposite. ”

"So," he asked solemnly, "how do you get out of this channel?" ”

She smiled profusely, a shallow dimple on her left cheek, and opened her mouth to spit out two words, "Chaju." ”

"Plus too much learning."

"During the Warring States Period, Qi had Mr. Jixia's setting, debated before the king, and taught his children, so in Linzi City, hundreds of schools of thought contended, it was a grand occasion, and Qi was strong for a hundred years. His Majesty can set up Taixue in Chang'an City, and invite talented people from all over the world to be doctors. He ordered the county guards to recommend outstanding talents under the rule every year to enter the Taixue and study under the doctor's door. Two years later, to test their talents, the outstanding ones entered the court as officials, and the inferior ones were released to the local government as officials. ”

This is the policy that the Han Dynasty did implement in history, and it ensured the peace of the Western Han Dynasty for a hundred years. Because the children of the nobility can enter the Taixue with the shadow of their ancestors, and if the number of Taixue can be controlled to a certain limit, it will not have too much impact on the inherent meritorious group, and it can also bring a clear stream to the court.

Liu Ying thought about it for a long time, and felt that this inspection strategy was to pay attention to details, so that she could plug the loopholes in all aspects, and the more she thought about it, the more wonderful it became, she couldn't help but look at Zhang Yan and praised, "Ah Yan, if you are a man, you will definitely become my minister." ”

Zhang Yan laughed, got up and took a step back, pressed his right hand with his left hand, and bowed, "Minister Zhang Yan knocks to see Your Majesty." "The action is heroic. (This is a man's salute.) The woman bows with her right hand pressed against her left hand. οΌ‰

Liu Ying stretched out her hand to help, smiled, and said, "Yanqing, flat." ”
