In the evening of the same day, the group entered the royal annex of Heijo, which was more elaborate than any other place before. Helian Yunxiu was placed in Yayi Courtyard to the west, while Tuoba Tao was next to her, in Rihui Courtyard. The director of the annex had prepared the dresses for today's reception banquet and the dinner of the guests.

Helian Yunxiu was a little worried, because it was about to arrive in Shengle, and her heart was in turmoil. From the bottom of her heart, she really doesn't want to marry any prince, especially every time she sees Tuoba Tao, she thinks of Tuoba Hongxuan, the two have some god-like places, but one doesn't like it but always wants to control herself, while the other likes it very much but always chases and kills herself, which makes her feel helpless. At this moment, cynicism changed into today's dress, dressed in a royal blue silk embroidered crane robe and a gold-silk white jade crown, smiling and shaking a fan to find Helian Yunxiu, and said as he walked: "Ouch, why are you so sad!" Isn't it just a matter of getting married, and you don't want to get married, do you? ”。

Helian Yunxiu glanced at him and said, "Of course I don't want to marry, it's not that you don't know my thoughts!" ”

Cynical smiled: "What do you think?" Still thinking about Tuoba Hongxuan's kid? ”

Helian Yunxiu glanced at him again and said, "I like freedom, the days of being locked up in the deep palace are terrible to think about!" ”

Cynically shook his fan and nodded: "I understand this, and I'm afraid, not just ordinary, I'm very afraid!" There are a lot of troubles in the court, there are many women, not to mention the chatter, and there are intrigues, it is completely a dark battlefield! ”。

Helian Yunxiu smiled, looked at him and asked, "Have you been in the palace?" Which country? ”

Cynicism smiled bitterly and diverted the topic, saying, "You still don't change your dress?" If you don't change it, the prince will urge you in a while! ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Tuoba Tao striding into Yayi Courtyard, and said as he walked: "Yunxiu, have you changed your clothes?" ”

Helian Yunxiu smiled bitterly and said, "Isn't it early!" ”

Tuoba Tao smiled and said: "You put it on and let me see, I asked the steward to prepare a dress unique to us in the Northern Wei Dynasty!" ”

Helian Yunxiu smiled helplessly, took the clothes that were put aside, and unfolded them, they were indeed very gorgeous, with large sleeves and tight waist gold wires, not only gorgeous but also very expensive accessories, all of which were fine pearls and agate, the most unique thing was that the clothing had obvious Xianbei characteristics, the neckline was wide to the shoulders and then matched with gorgeous necklaces, which was really graceful and bewitching.

Helian Yunxiu asked, "Is this dress meant that the entire shoulder is almost exposed?" ”

Tuoba Tao smiled: "This style is from the Western Regions, and women will be very beautiful when they wear it, really!" Yunxiu, you must look good in it! ”

Cynicism covered his mouth with a fan and smiled: "It must be good-looking, I want to see it too!" ”

Helian Yunxiu blushed and said, "This, this, I'm not used to it, I can't wear it!" ”

Tuoba Tao smiled and said, "What's this, the ladies here all like this kind of costume, it's very charming!" ”

Looking at Tuoba Tao and cynicism's expectant eyes, Helian Yunxiu "cruelly" refused: "I'm sorry, I really don't want to wear this kind of clothes, I think your men's dress is good!" ”。 After speaking, he kept looking Tuoba Tao up and down.

Tuoba Tao was a little embarrassed to look at it, and said with a red face: "But I still hope you try this dress, you must be beautiful in it...... Of course, if you don't like it, I'll ask someone else to replace it."

cynical smiled: "It's normal for Yunxiu to be unable to accept it for a while, let's keep the clothes first, and let her wear whatever she wants."

Tuoba Tao said gloomily: "Okay, I'll wait for you in the hall first." After speaking, he turned around and walked out of Yayi Temple.

Looking at Tuoba Tao who was leaving, he cynically laughed and said: "Yunxiu, people are a little unhappy, the prince of the people is full of enthusiasm to prepare for you, you just kick him back so hard, alas, ......!" ”

Helian Yunxiu sighed and said, "I don't have any love for him, the more enthusiastic he is, the more uncomfortable I am!" ”

Cynicism shook his fan, looked at her, and said: "Also, women can only relax in front of the people they love".

Helian Yunxiu glanced at him and said, "It's as if you understand women very well."

The cynic covered his mouth with a fan and smiled: "I will also wait for you in the hall", and after speaking, he left with a smile.

Almost all of the people who came to the banquet in the imperial palace today were dignitaries from Pingcheng, and there were also Xuanwang Tuoba Fan and Zhuang Wang Tuoba Jian, who came from Shengle, and the two were pulling Tuoba Tao and Wang Luo'er to talk about the tax reduction and military service system discussed in the court and China in the past few days.

Just listen, Tuoba Tao said: "Reducing the taxes of peasants and ordinary small business operators is a matter of benefiting the country and the people, why would anyone oppose it? ”

Tuoba Fan said: "Oh, second brother, you don't know that the family in the court controls the operation channels of salt, tea and grain all the year round, and reducing taxes is beneficial to the country and the people, but there is also a price problem including fixed channel transactions, which will not affect their interests."

Tuoba Jian said: "Yes, if the transactions in the channel are not fixed and checked, then it is not the policy of the state that has fattened the profiteers in the middle and some people of these families, and the people and the court will not get benefits at all."

Wang Luo'er said: "It seems that there must be a perfect plan to achieve His Majesty's expectations."

Tuoba Fan nodded: "Yes, but it's difficult!" ”

Tuoba Tao frowned and said: "This family is not easy to mess with, and the development of the country depends on them, what a dilemma!" ”

As soon as the words fell, cynicism walked in with two spirits, accompanied by Helian Chang, and when he heard the conversation of these people, he smiled and said, "What's so difficult about this."

Wang Luo'er asked in surprise, "What is Childe's opinion?" ”

Cynically smiled: "Wouldn't it be enough to open a high-level aristocratic academy in Shengle, and then set up a requirement for the children of nobles to enter the official career!" ”

King Xuan and King Zhuang asked in surprise, "What does this have to do with opening a school?" ”

The dementor on the side said coldly, "It's stupid."

And the drunken fairy spirit smiled and said: "You can let the sons and daughters of the family enter, isn't this a hostage in the hands of the emperor!" And how to train children in Shengle is not the royal family's final say, if the family does not cooperate with the imperial court policy, then the number of people who enter the family as officials will be reduced proportionally, and the family without a career can only decline, and all the families understand this truth."

Helian Chang listened to it on the side and shouted: "High, really high!" Then, he asked suspiciously: "What if some families don't follow this rule?" ”。
