In her memory, Wu Gong once asked: "Sheng'er is talented and good at learning, which is very similar to loneliness, but his character and temperament are difficult to take on heavy responsibilities." Zhaoyi, you see, who is more suitable to inherit him than Pei Er? ”

At that time, she replied: "The third son has excellent conduct, poetry and writing, which is unique in the world and can be a pillar, but he just drank twice and made mistakes." ”

When he heard this, Wu Gong laughed, "Sheng'er made two mistakes, once in a car and horse accident, and once almost delayed the rescue army. ”

Pulling out of her memories, she looked at the person in front of her again, as if she suddenly understood what Wu Gong meant.

"Oh, His Royal Highness King Han, you can't go to see Your Majesty like this."

Han King Xia Sheng staggered and glared at the people around him, "What?" Forehead? Which brother sees his brother, he must wait for the report? ”

As he spoke, he rushed to Lu Zhaoyi and saw her face.

Suddenly, the whole person was stunned, his eyes kept rolling, and he couldn't take his eyes off for a long time, and he was a little stupid.

"Who are you?"

Seeing this, the chamberlain standing at the door of the hall suddenly ran out and bowed to Xia Sheng, "His Royal Highness King Han, this is a disciple of the military master, the lady of the Lu family in Yedu, and the sister of Lu Chengye, who is still the secretary of Shangshuling. ”

However, Xia Sheng seemed to be unaware, and for a moment, he still stared at Lu Zhaoyi, as if he had lost his mind.

The next moment, in full view of everyone, he reached out and grabbed Lu Zhaoyi's hand and clasped it tightly.

And Lu Zhaoyi was also frightened by his action, and subconsciously hurriedly retracted her hand, but no matter how she struggled, she couldn't break free from the man's palm.

Seeing this, Xia Sheng couldn't help but let go, and then the corners of his mouth lifted lightly, "Lu Niangzi is frightened, it is really rude to the lonely king." ”

As soon as she let go, Lu Zhaoyi's face was full of displeasure, and she hurriedly took her hand back, touching her hand that was a little painful, but the man in front of her, the next sentence, made her jaw drop.

"In this way, in order to make amends, on the first day, the lone king will send someone to Nanyang Hou to send a dowry, how about it?"

What?

Giving a dowry?

"You ......" Lu Zhaoyi was shocked.

Seeing her react like this, Xia Sheng frowned slightly, "What?" Mrs. Lu thinks the dowry is too little? The lonely king will prepare more for another day and welcome Lu Niangzi into the house, okay? ”

Welcome to the house?

Is this man crazy?

What exactly does he know what he's doing?

Lu Zhaoyi shook his head again and again, panting, and felt even more ridiculous in his heart, and was about to open his mouth to reply, but was interrupted by a voice from the hall.

"Nonsense! Do you dare to make such jokes? ”

Everyone looked at each other, Emperor Xia Pei was dressed in a red robe on a black background, wearing twelve crowns, his steps were hurried, his face was angry, and his eyes were staring at his younger brother tightly from beginning to end, as if he had a deep hatred.

"Third brother, my new Che Rider is engaged in Zhonglang, you also want to abduct it?"

Hearing this, Xia Sheng's expression was slightly stunned, and he saluted the emperor, "Che riding is engaged in Zhonglang? She? ”

As he spoke, his eyes glanced at Lu Zhaoyi again, his eyes full of incredulity.

"Not bad." Xia Pei chuckled and tilted his head to Lu Zhaoyi, "You, come in with me!" After speaking, he walked straight to the hall, not giving Xia Sheng half a chance at all.

And Lu Zhaoyi, who was on the side, also wanted to escape quickly, so he hurriedly followed Xia Pei into the hall.

But Xia Sheng refused to let go, and didn't care about the emperor's face at all, so he insisted on forcibly catching up, but as a last resort, the guards in front of the palace stopped him with knives.

"Third brother, I advise you to do your duty, don't force me not to take into account the feelings of brotherhood."

Xia Pei turned his back to him, his tone was gentle, and he didn't know what mood he was in.

After entering the hall, several ministers in the hall were already standing on both sides, one by one bowing their heads and saying nothing, as if everything just now had been listened to by them.

When Lu Zhaoyi stood still, Zhong Qing slowly raised his head and saw her appearance clearly, just like Xia Sheng outside the hall, her pupils shrank suddenly, and they were all shocked.

And Xia Pei, who returned to the throne, also turned around slowly, and a pair of dark eyes fell on her, and after a while, she slowly hooked her lips and smiled.

The atmosphere in the hall was a little solemn for a while, and Lu Zhaoyi didn't know why, his back was cold inexplicably, and his sense of uneasiness became more and more intense.

Suddenly, he only felt that he, the new rider, was in the middle of the court, and he was all under the eyes of the ministers.

"Secretaries." Xia Pei spoke up and drew everyone's attention, "Fang Cai, where did the right minister go?" ”

At the head of the ministers, Du Yan, who was closest to the throne, seemed to be about thirty years old, and turned his head to Xia Pei, "Your Majesty, the minister said that he has already checked the left and right, and the only person who can take the responsibility of the grain depot is the person from the land, Song Yuanzhi." ”

As soon as the words fell, in the corner, I heard Lu Zhaoyi cover her mouth and snicker, and was clearly heard by the people present, and several pairs of eyes stared at her.

At this time, Xia Pei leaned back, looking very relaxed, "Why is Lu Qing laughing, let's listen to it." ”

Among the ministers, Du Yan was the right minister, and there were three behind him, who were former officials of the Yue Kingdom, and their eyes were full of hostility.

Looking at the other side, although Yuan Qi, the left minister, was not present, they were all after the Yin Chuan family, and they were all recommended by Yuan Qi to enter the dynasty one by one back then.

In just this cup of tea, she could see the awkward situation of the two sides.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhaoyi sighed lightly, "The minister is not laughing at Song Yuanzhi, but laughing at Your Majesty." ”

In a trance, the surprise in the eyes of the ministers caused Lu Zhaoyi to become the focus again. But between the two factions, the reaction was very different.

Du Yan and the officials under him were angry and laughing, and some people were ready to say their tongues on the spot at any time.

On the other hand, looking at the faction to which Yuan Qi belongs, they have a sad look on their faces, but there is a sense of hatred that iron is not steel.

"Lu Niangzi, do you know what you're talking about?"

It was Du Yan who spoke, and he put on a gloating expression at the moment.

But Lu Zhaoyi didn't pay attention to him, but continued to bow to Xia Pei, "As far as the minister knows, in recent days, the people recruited by His Majesty in the people, in addition to the necessary military salaries, the remaining sixty percent will be used to build civil engineering, canals, dams, and grain depots in the world. ”

Speaking of this, she paused and glanced at Du Yan, "And the Yuechu Water Canal, which will start construction in March, must pass through the Yuedi Grain Depot." These are all profiteering businesses, Du Xiang is going to take them by force, right? ”

"Shut up!"

Emperor Xia Pei didn't react yet, but Du Yan immediately scolded, "The construction of water canals, the construction of civil engineering, and the establishment of grain depots are the foundation of Dayuan's century-old foundation. ”

"Whoever is untrustworthy, Your Majesty will know when you check it." Lu Zhaoyi immediately retorted, "Du Xiang, if you just Chengping today, and the whole country has stopped fighting, it has only been less than a month, and it is true that the people need to make a living, but they must also be reasonably taken." ”

"Alright, stop arguing." Xia Pei waved his sleeves and asked the two to stop arguing, "What Du Xiang said is reasonable, but what Lu Qing said is not unreasonable. Even so, it needs to be taken one step at a time. ”

"So be it." He thought for a while, and said, "Now that the dynasty has only been open for a month, only do what is necessary, the world has been dry in recent years, and the construction of dikes will be put aside for the time being, and the people will be restless, and it will not be too late to discuss when the household registration is restored." ”

After speaking, the ministers saluted Xia Pei, "Your Majesty is wise." ”

But Lu Zhaoyi was not happy.

Originally, she wanted to take the opportunity to stir up this mess of the land, but she didn't expect Xia Pei to spare them like this, and she was faintly angry in her heart.

To say that this Du Yan was once in Yueguo, the governor in charge of the naval army, and it was rumored that he had "Wang Zuozhicai", who had both wisdom and bravery, was able to govern the country with literature and prosper the country with martial arts.

Four months ago, Lu Zhaoyi accompanied Wu Gong Xing's army to fight and start the decisive battle across the river, and the fifth Langya led the Lingguo army to approach the naval army led by Du Yan, and the shame of the fire attack in Xueling Prefecture was defeated, and converged with the Wugong army to defeat the Vietnamese army in one fell swoop.

After that, Du Yan surrendered and became a vassal, but Lu Zhaoyi knew that he was extremely resentful by nature, and he also reminded Wu Gong to pay attention to this person.

Now that he has taken the initiative to recommend the Yue people to take on the responsibility of building the grain depot, I am afraid that he already has a heart of revenge.

Lu Zhaoyi, who knew all this, gritted his teeth and was not to be outdone.

So, in a burst of compliments and praises, Xia Pei sat on the dragon chair and gladly accepted it.

For a moment, he raised his eyes to look at Lu Zhaoyi with an indifferent expression, "I forgot to introduce Lu Qing just now." Zhongqing, Nanyang Hou's sister Lu Qiniang, after the law of selecting officials of the nine grades, on the basis of the fixed product, engaged in Zhonglang for the car ride. I also heard that the Lang official belonging to the general of the Che Cavalry is full, so in the future, Lu Qiniang, I will follow the Lang official! ”

As soon as these words came out, no one in the hall responded, except for one person who gritted his teeth and wanted to speak.
