After sending Dong Meiren away, Li Tongan looked at Tian Tian very puzzled: "This guy doesn't know how to read people's faces, or is he deliberately here to find fault?" ”

Yuan Tiantian judged: "It shouldn't be intentional to find fault, she is stupid but the King of Shu is not stupid, His Royal Highness the King of Shu and our Royal Highness have a delicate relationship now, it is impossible to send her to provoke and find fault, although it is not clear what her purpose is now, but for now, she has done something beneficial to His Royal Highness the King of Jin." ”

Li Tong'an was angry when he heard this, and said in surprise: "What is beneficial to His Highness, why do you say this?" ”

Yuan Tiantian smiled and said: "We don't care what her purpose is, today she said such a meal inexplicably, let's treat it as if she was here to provoke, just now I told her to enter the palace and tell the queen, do you think she will go?" ”

Li Tongan frowned and pondered: "It should be ...... Won't go. ”

"Naturally, she won't go, because she doesn't have this identity to see the queen, the queen has always hated pretentious women, although Dong Meiren is not pretentious, but as Miss An said, Dong Meiren is now in the limelight in the capital, and the queen must not like such a woman who likes to show her face."

"She can't see the queen, and once this matter is known to His Royal Highness the King of Shu, His Royal Highness the King of Shu will definitely stop her."

Li Tongan asked: "Why don't you think that the Dong family came to the door today because the King of Shu arranged to come to tempt?" ”

"Although we don't have much contact with the King of Shu, the King of Shu shouldn't be able to do such a thing, and he sent her to test, what do you want to test?"

It seems that this is indeed true, now the princess in the Jin Palace's confinement, and the rest are only female dependents, and the men and strategists have all asked Yang Guang to take him to the front line to fight, and he doesn't seem to know what to test when he sends people to test it.

Yuan Tiantian said: "When Dong Meiren goes home, in case His Royal Highness the King of Shu knows about it, he will definitely stop it, and even come to apologize, but in this way, he also missed the opportunity to sue in front of the queen mother, as long as this complaint is filed, they can't argue, although it is not a big deal, but the queen mother is very fond of our princess, and you are also the same for Miss Tong'an, such a woman The queen mother may also be waiting for the opportunity to punish her." ”

"It's not a big thing, it can make the queen mother angry with the King of Shu because of this, which is good for His Royal Highness the King of Jin."

Li Tongan looked at Yuan Tiantian with slight surprise: "Why do you think about so many things every day?" ”

"Miss Tong'an, everything is for the sake of His Royal Highness the King of Jin, I will wait for the woman in the back house, His Royal Highness will be honored, and His Royal Highness will be lost."

"So what do we do now?"

Yuan Tiantian pulled up Li Tongan and said: "Miss Tong'an, you are also dressed up, why don't you go to the palace, Dong Meiren can't enter the palace, you can, chat with the queen mother, it is best to have other noble ladies present, when saying this, I "accidentally" said that Dong Meiren had come to visit, asked to see the princess, and let the queen know about it. ”

Li Tongan clapped his hands: "You still have a lot of ideas every day, I will hurry into the palace, add fuel to the matter and talk to the queen mother, and see what she does." ”

Looking at Li Tongan's proud little expression, Yuan Tiantian immediately instructed: "That's not good, don't add oil and vinegar, you just say it as it is, you have to say it very carelessly, as long as you point out that Dong Meiren came to our princess without a post, and also asked to see the princess, and let the queen mother use her imagination for other things." ”

Li Tongan thought about it and laughed.

"No wonder His Highness always has to take you by his side, it's really easy to have you as a strategist, let's go, I'll go to the palace."

Without further ado, Li Tongan got into the carriage and went to the palace.

In addition to the relationship between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, she has to call Queen Dugu an aunt, and Queen Dugu is very fond of her.

Yuan Tiantian returned to the room and told Xiao Menglan about the matter, Xiao Menglan asked suspiciously: "Why did this Dong Meiren come to see me?" The relationship with me is just a general acquaintance. ”

"Princess, what happened when you saw her before?"

Xiao Menglan thought about it carefully: "Two months ago, when the King of Shu returned from a great victory and married the Dong family, I went to participate, at the banquet, because I was pregnant with Liujia, I wanted to leave earlier, but I don't know why the Dong family must keep me. ”

"Dong ordered a painter to paint the portrait, and it stands to reason that as long as the young couple paints it, she asked me and my fifth brother and daughter-in-law to paint one with her, and this painting appeared on the front page of the newspaper the next day."

This is a new project launched by the newspaper, because the newspaper gradually discovered that people seem to prefer pictures, and the pictures are more impactful, so in order to make the newspaper more popular, the current newspaper has a mixture of pictures and words, but the printing cost of pictures is higher, so the price is expensive.

The wedding of the King of Shu is naturally a big event, but because it is not a wife, the King of Shu himself does not plan to put these things in the newspaper, and it is not a good thing to put his private affairs on the table for people to have fun after dinner.

In the end, the portraits of the King of Shu and the Dong family were not published in the newspaper, but the portraits of Xiao Menglan, the Dong family and the woman were published, which caused a small storm.

The article praising Dong's was published in this newspaper, and there was a lot of praise for Dong's beauty over the entire Great Sui.

Regarding this article, Xiao Menglan just laughed and didn't take it seriously, but the fifth daughter-in-law came to the door and vomited a stomach full of bitter water, complaining that the Dong family was not authentic, stepping on one hand, and stepping on so many people in order to praise herself.

It's not just this one who is unhappy.

I thought that there were not many intersections, and Xiao Menglan didn't bother to pay attention to her, but I didn't expect it to come again.

Yuan Tiantian gently rubbed his chin, and seeing this action, Xiao Menglan couldn't help but smile: "Every day, how can you learn the movements of His Royal Highness King Jin." ”

Yuan Tiantian subconsciously reacted, he had been by His Royal Highness King Jin's side for a long time, and it seemed that he had unconsciously learned the thinking actions of His Royal Highness King Jin.

Not caring about these small details, Yuan Tiantian thought for a while and said: "It seems that this Dong family cares very much about other people's evaluations of his appearance, and he is the kind of woman who likes to show her head." ”

Xiao Menglan said very firmly: "Yes, the kind of woman that the queen mother dislikes the most." ”

In the courtyard of the deep palace, Queen Dugu is chatting with Yang Lihua happily today, her daughter has not entered the palace for a long time, so she specially invited her to chat.

Yang Lihua doesn't like to chat with her mother very much, for her, this kind of boring and suspicious mother-daughter communication, when there is no third person present, is simply embarrassing to death.

It's not that she doesn't know how much effort her mother has made to improve her relationship with her over the years, but she has been rotten, anyway, she doesn't care about things, she doesn't do anything, and she lives a good life.

When the two were chatting, someone came to report that Li Tongan was waiting at the door to see the queen.

"Why is this girl Tong'an here?"

"It can't be that there is something going on in the Jin Palace."

Queen Dugu summoned Li Tong'an, but when she saw Li Tong'an coming in, she pulled a silk horse and said, "Queen Mother, look at this is the latest silk, the color is very good-looking." ”

Queen Dugu never thought that Li Tongan was here to talk about silk.

After sitting down and chatting for a few words, Queen Dugu asked, "Tong'an, how is the house doing?" ”

"Queen Mother, everything is fine, Xiao Yang Zhao is also cute now, I was really scared when I was born, that little wrinkled look is really not good-looking."

"You child, pure nonsense, children are not all like this when they are born, so that Amand will not be able to teach you a lesson when he hears it."

Li Tongan smiled cutely, of course she knew that the queen would not really blame her.

"How is Meng Lan's recent health?"

"It's a lot better, Mr. Sun gives his sister a pulse every day, and his body is gradually getting better, today the concubine of the King of Shu came to the door, and my sister almost went out to greet the guests by herself, but I stopped me, thinking that I couldn't waste the makeup I painted, and I came to see the queen mother with the latest silk and satin."

Queen Dugu, who was still smiling, suddenly smiled, could someone as powerful as her not hear the question in Li Tongan's words?

"You said that the concubine of the King of Shu came to visit today? Is it Dong? ”

Li Tongan still smiled lively: "Yes, it's Sister Dong, although there is no post, but the princess seems to have a good relationship with Sister Dong, and asked me to see Sister Dong on her behalf, we chatted for a long time, Sister Dong is brilliant and beautiful." ”

After hearing these words, Queen Dugu's face sank, and Yang Lihua was on fire next to her: "Oh, is that Dong Meiren, who is known as the first beauty of the Great Sui?" It is said that now all the men in Daxing City who have seen this beauty regard her as the lover of their dreams. ”

"Dream Girl ......"

Queen Dugu repeated Yang Lihua's words, her face did not change, but her tone was cold.

Then he said: "I heard that when the King of Shu and the Dong family got married, they were also published in the newspaper, and they used a lot of publicity to do it, but is it true? ”

Yang Lihua replied: "Yes, I also saw it, and there is still me in the portrait." ”

Queen Dugu said earnestly: "The royal family of the Great Sui Dynasty values Kangming, how can it be publicized in the newspaper with such fanfare? Lost his solemnity and messed around. ”

"Queen Mother, the Dong family is beautiful, she is the first beauty of the Great Sui, maybe she doesn't want to be in the newspaper, it's just because it's too famous, and the newspaper has to find some celebrities to promote if it wants to sell."

Queen Dugu said to the eunuchs beside her: "Let the King of Shu take the Dong family into the palace tomorrow." ”

Li Tongan sighed in his heart, he still had to Yuan Tiantian, and he achieved his goal quietly.

……

Yang Guang, who was far away in Youzhou, did not know the current situation in Daxing City, and he was accompanied by a bunch of advisers, and was now planning the next peace talks with Goguryeo.

Now the army of the Great Sui has launched the final general attack on Goguryeo on the north and south fronts, and the battle on the front line is approaching step by step, and the Goguryeo people are full of confidence from the beginning, and they have already lost their morale by now, and most of the people in the court who advocate surrender account for most of them, but their king of the plains is not convinced.

Yang Guang began to discuss the specific projects of peace at this time, not because he was arrogant, but because he was confident, Li Jing and Yin Shishishi, who were steady and steady, firmly controlled the situation in their own hands, so that Yang Guang had time to pay attention to these things.

Diplomats and advisers discuss specific matters.

Suddenly, someone asked: "Your Royal Highness the King of Jin, the places bordering Goguryeo and Silla Baekje now belong to our army, why did you deliberately give up part of the land to Goguryeo in the agreement, Wechen really didn't understand this?" ”

"This king has seen the news from Li Jing, in terms of geographical distribution, this part of Goguryeo to the west by the sea, that is, the area seized by Li Jing across the sea has better topography and relatively prosperous economic situation, but it is not good to go to the northeast, my plan is that we only need the good places, and the bad ones will continue to be left to them, let them govern themselves, and for this reason, Goguryeo and Silla Baekje at least one country border, for this border contradiction, otherwise it will become our border with them in the future, and the friction and contradictions are all ours."

Another person asked, "Why didn't Your Highness make Goguryeo the same as Shinhan, depriving it of its military rights and making it impossible for them to build an army on their own." ”

"If you can't build an army on your own, then Goguryeo will definitely fight to the death, and if you continue to fight like this, it's just a lot of dead people, and there is not much need, and if Goguryeo is also our army, how can we highlight the difference between Shinhan?"

Yang Guang took a sip of tea and continued: "The water flows to the lower places, and the people go to the higher places, and in this small place, there are four regimes of Goguryeo, Shinhan, Silla, and Baekje, and the people in it will be convenient for the people to come and go, and among these four places, Shinhan has our support and has the best life, and the people around will definitely try their best to squeeze it in, and formulate good rules to make the surrounding countries slowly decline." ”

After hearing Yang Guang's words and discussing for a while, everyone nodded and continued their work.

Yu Wenhua came to Yang Guang's side, and Yang Guang said: "Brother Yuwen, you should prepare for it recently, and go to Goguryeo to negotiate at any time." ”

Next, Yang Guanghui appointed Yu Wenhua and went to Goguryeo for peace talks.

Yu Wenhua asked: "Your Highness, although I didn't understand the reason why you didn't completely take Goguryeo, I think it's right to follow you anyway." ”

"You have an important task when you arrive in Goguryeo, I will send someone to find out the news of the firearms factory in Goguryeo, our contract includes the destruction of their firearms arsenal, you must personally carry out this task, all the firearms manufacturing equipment, drawings are destroyed, before the destruction you have to let them show you the process of firearms manufacturing, you must ensure that the craftsmen who can make firearms are there, and then all of them will be included in Shinhan."
