Since neither of them had any opinion on this deal, it was difficult for Rui Xue to express any more opinions on it.

When I think of the firecrackers that the children play with in the village, they also need to use gunpowder and the like to explode.

If you can make firecrackers, why did you snatch the recipe for firearms from Bishui in the first place.

Zhao Fengnian explained with a smile: "The things that can be used for fun are different from the things that can be used on battlefield weapons. Although the formula is similar, the effect is very different. The Holy One also does not allow anyone to study in private. There are many raw materials that we have not produced, so there has been no progress. ”

Rui Xue nodded as if she didn't understand: "In that case, why didn't you buy it from Bishui in the first place, you have to rob others, and you have wasted a great opportunity for more than ten years of development." ”

Zhao Fengnian lowered his head and looked at the battle report in his hand.

"Who knows what the saint thinks."

On the second day, Rui Xue and Zhao Fengnian stepped on time to enter the palace.

The people of the Zhao family are not prosperous, and the only one of the current saints and the previous generation of the saints is still in Kyoto.

The rest of the brothers and sisters either returned to the West early or were sent away from the political center of Kyoto.

and Zhao Fengnian's generation, there are only three princes, and two little princesses who are not yet ten years old.

This banquet looks a little deserted.

In the huge hall, there were sparse sitting their royal relatives.

The dishes passed through the long palace walls and were served only after being poisoned by the chamberlains.

No matter how delicate and delicious it is, it is already cold, not to mention appetite, and it is a little difficult to even eat it in the stomach.

A meal is eaten like a fish in the throat, like sitting on pins and needles.

Ruixue wanted to stay dignified, and her smirk's face froze.

It's easy to get through it, and I'm forced to watch a sleepy song and dance for half a day.

After giving the gift easily, I thought I could finally leave the palace, but I was left alone by the queen.

Rui Xue felt that things were not good, but she couldn't refuse, because Zhao Fengnian was also called by the saint to speak.

I could only lift my spirit and follow the queen to the warm pavilion in the side hall.

This time, the queen did not embarrass her again, and gave her a square stool to sit on.

looked at Rui Xue with a smile and said.

"Princess Ning, don't be nervous, you helped the mourning family a while ago, and the mourning family will not treat you like you. The saint has something to say to Fengnian, and the mourning family will keep you for a while. ”

Rui Xue smiled and responded.

This stall asked Zhao Fengnian to speak alone in the past, could it be that the military and political affairs in the north had already been arranged.

I really plan to let Zhao Fengnian go back to the north after the New Year.

After the end of the New Year, the agricultural slack will end, and after the beginning of spring, all localities will start farming and production.

The northern border is not very peaceful, and when the green and yellow are not connected, it is most likely to cause trouble and the like.

Most of the herdsmen in Beique need to change fields and drive their cattle and sheep to places with abundant water and grass.

In this process, there will definitely be a dispute with Da Lan on the border.

Zhao Fengnian, the main general of the northern realm, if he doesn't go back to take charge, Da Lan is afraid that he will suffer a lot of losses.

Thinking that Zhao Fengnian was really going to leave Kyoto this time, Rui Xue was a little reluctant in her heart.

This inexplicable affection made Rui Xue a little upset, and she always felt that if Zhao Fengnian was not by her side, she would have less to rely on.

Although she didn't have to rely on Zhao Fengnian, she was a little empty in her heart.

The queen seemed to see that Ruixue was a little tired.

said softly: "Princess Ning, do you want to take a nap, there are two banquets, just accompanying it is also a draining matter." ”

"Ah~!" Rui Xue reflexively cried out, is this a new type of torture?

Didn't Zhao Fengnian say that they could leave after the family banquet?

In the afternoon, there was a banquet for officials from all over the world who had come to Kyoto to report on their work, and in the evening, there was a reception for Kyoto's dignitaries and foreign envoys.

Listening to the meaning of the queen's mother, she and Zhao Fengnian are all going to participate in the accompaniment.

It's bad news, worse than not letting her eat sweets.

I didn't have enough to eat, and I had to starve for two more meals, so I just killed her.

His brows furrowed, his small white hands held his forehead, and his face was full of pain.

"Oh, the queen, my nephew and daughter-in-law suddenly have a splitting headache, I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in the next banquet, it's good that the prince is here, can my nephew and daughter-in-law go back to the house to rest first, so as not to lose the royal face."

"Hmph~!" The queen snorted softly with a smile.

"Don't think I can't see your little bit of caution, save it, you can't escape. You really plan to leave Fengnian here alone, it's really a ruthless little hoof. ”

Listening to the queen's tone, it doesn't look like it's angry, it's like an elder with a good personality joking with a junior.

Ruixue looked up and smiled awkwardly.

"Somehow, it will feel much better, maybe the queen's mother is blessed and blessed me."

The queen mother glanced at Rui Xue, and laughed out loud, and even the attendant behind her couldn't help but cover her mouth.

"Like your mother, she is very cunning."

Rui Xue's eyes widened as if she had heard some secret.

"The queen recognizes my mother."

"Don't mention the matter of Chen sesame rotten grain." The queen picked up her handkerchief and nodded her lips, raising her hand to greet the chamberlain behind her.

"Ah Fu, help me to rest, let Princess Ning take a nap here. She will take it later. ”

The words fell Tingting curled around the screen and went to take a nap.

Rui Xue was a little excited, and wanted to talk to the queen mother about Li Ningshuang.

But the queen seemed to be deliberately appetizing, and if she didn't take her stubble, Rui Xue could only give up.

When the queen left, a maid came to lay incense for Rui Xue and take off the crown on her head.

Ke Ruixue slept somewhere, she was already hungry, and she was aroused by the queen's curiosity.

After lying for half an hour, an attendant came to spread that Zhao Fengnian came to look for her.

got up and simply freshened up, and saw that Zhao Fengnian's face was a little dark.

I also know that the saint is afraid that he didn't say anything good about him.

There are attendants all around, and it's not easy to ask, so I can only press it down first and talk about it when I go back.

I rushed to the main hall for dinner in the morning, and this time it was much more lively.

I even saw an acquaintance in the crowd.

Gu Jingjue was dressed in bright clothes, which made her skin even darker.

Seeing Rui Xue and Zhao Fengnian walking side by side, he hurriedly pulled up the big man sitting on the side to say hello.

"I've seen King Ning, Princess Ning." Saying that, he touched the somewhat restrained big man next to him with his arm.

Only then did Dahan react and hugged Zhao Fengnian.

"I have long admired the name of the general, and Gu Chengyun joined the army in the lower southern border."

Zhao Fengnian's originally cool face had an expression, and he returned the salute with his fists.

"There is someone sitting at the table next to General Gu."

"No, General, please."
