Silla presented a book of surrender, and the old man was embarrassed
Hearing Li Xiuzhu's analysis, the prince was silent for a moment.
He was sure that one of the men must have been sent by his father, but what about the other two?
"If it weren't for my brother-in-law opening his mouth today, I wouldn't have known that my little East Palace hides so many eyeliner."
However, the prince smiled and did not take it seriously.
It's not that he doesn't care, it's that he can't handle it.
If nothing else, if his father's manpower was handled carelessly, he would be in big trouble.
Li Xiuzhu didn't say anything more, and got up to say goodbye after eating.
After he left, the crown princess Xiao Rongyu looked at the prince and was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't hold back when the prince was about to leave.
"Your Highness has never been reluctant at all?"
The prince paused as he prepared to leave.
"Just do what you have to do, if someone knows about it, your family's life will not be saved."
Xiao Rongyu pulled out a weird smile.
"I didn't want to resist, in fact, I still have a good impression of our sister-in-law, I'm just curious if His Highness really has no reluctance and hesitation?"
"After all, I'm the crown princess!"
The prince turned his head to look at Xiao Rongyu and stared at her for three breaths before he spoke: "There is indeed hesitation, I hesitate whether to make your child the prince in the future." ”
"After all, it's my royal heritage."
"Thinking about it later, it doesn't seem to be a big problem, I can leave the throne to my younger brother."
"If you don't have a younger brother to fight for, it's not impossible to give it to your children."
"Anyway, I have sat on this throne, and it makes little difference to anyone in the future."
"All I want is to be free and have the ability to protect the people I love in the future."
Xiao Rongyu didn't expect to get such an answer.
What kind of psychosis is this man? In the future, try to stay away from this stupid shortage.
Well, you have to plug in the door at night.
However, for this kind of mental illness, Xiao Rongyu has no courage to be disobedient.
"Your Highness, rest assured, the concubine will do what she needs to do, and give birth to a dragon son for 'Your Highness' as soon as possible."
"Well, get some rest!"
When Li Xiuzhu went back, he unexpectedly found that several wives had not slept yet.
"What? Is this waiting for me? ”
Fu Yuehua frowned and asked, "Why did you go for a day and a night?" ”
Li Xiuzhu smiled: "I drank too much last night, and I didn't get up until the afternoon today, so I just had a meal." ”
"I remember that I asked the prince to tell the old horse to come back and report the news, but the old horse didn't come back?"
"I'm back, but the old horse said I didn't see you, and we haven't come back since it's dark, so we're a little worried."
Li Xiuzhu stepped forward and hugged Fu Yuehua and said, "Isn't this back?" It's really a bit too much to drink this time, which worries you. ”
As he spoke, he took a deep breath of the aroma around Fu Yuehua's neck, and felt a lot more energetic.
Suddenly, he thought of the bloodstained picture of the crown princess before and after, and suddenly became interested again.
Looking at the women on the side, he asked, "Sleep together at night?" ”
Suddenly, the women's faces turned red, and Li Baguio, Lang Yue, and Xi Honghong stood up in tears.
"My husband is back, so I'll go to sleep first."
"Well, I'm not very convenient."
"Me too!"
“……”
As he spoke, he walked six or seven one after another, leaving only Fu Yuehua, Li Liuli and Li Shishi, who did not run away.
Early the next morning, Fu Yuehua, who had come to a better place, suddenly remembered something and looked at Li Xiuzhu, but found that her husband was no longer there.
Fu Yuehua got dressed neatly and asked when she came out of the master bedroom, "Is my uncle gone?" ”
"No, I'm having dinner with a couple of ladies in the antechamber."
Fu Yuehua breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the front hall.
At the same time, inside the House of Parliament.
"There is a book to play, and there is no book to retreat."
Sun Jingyang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, stepped forward.
"The minister and grandson Jingyang have a book."
"Accurate!"
"The Silla envoys have set out two days ago to deliver the surrender before the end of the year."
"I don't know if Your Majesty has a bottom line?"
Li Kuo suddenly showed a smile when he heard this, no one who is the emperor can refuse the merit of expanding the territory.
"Let them cede the north of Liaodong, how to talk about it depends on your Ministry of Rites, my bottom line is the five big cities."
Is the bottom line five big cities? At this moment, the pressure came to the Ministry of Rites.
You must know that there are only eight cities north of Liaodong, not counting the rear of Silla, which is a two-thirds less territory.
Even if it is the rear of Silla, this is also half of the territory of the country.
Sun Jingyang's scalp was a little numb and asked, "Your Majesty, is this ...... Will there be too much? ”
"Many? If they feel that it is too much, they can wait for the beginning of spring to destroy the country. ”
Sun Jingyang was stunned when he heard this, well, the situation is indeed different now.
In that case, it's not impossible to talk about it.
"Command!"
Li Kuo looked at Fu Wenhan.
"Fu Aiqing, Silla Shichen recently came to Beijing to submit a letter of surrender, the matter of the Grand Canal, you can prepare."
Fu Wenhan already knew that this day would come, and he had prepared a lot, not to mention the feasibility plan for his son-in-law.
Fu Wenhan hugged his fists and saluted.
"Your Majesty, the minister has almost made preparations, and he will be able to start work after the year."
"However, the frozen soil in the north is still a little hard after the New Year, and if you go from north to south, it will be half the effort."
"The minister suggested digging the Grand Canal from south to north."
Li Kuo nodded when he heard this, his time was running out, and he hoped to see the opening of the Grand Canal in his lifetime.
"I'll leave this matter to you, and I'll see the Grand Canal by May."
At this moment, Fu Wenhan simply felt that Li Kuo was crazy.
Seeing the Grand Canal in five months? Why don't you fly?
"Your Majesty, don't say that the Grand Canal will be dug in five months, even five years may not be able to be dug through."
"Five months, minister...... Powerless. ”
You must know that in Li Xiuzhu's history, Yang Guang used five million manpower to dig the Grand Canal for six years.
"If you don't have enough manpower, you don't need to worry about money, but in five months, I must see the Grand Canal."
"This ......"
Seeing that Fu Wenhan wanted to say more, Li Kuo waved his hand impatiently.
"Okay, if Fu Aiqing doesn't pay attention, you can go and ask the champion Hou."
"Champion Hou is quick to think, and he can also be tricky, I believe that it should not be a big problem with his help."
The corners of Fu Wenhan's mouth twitched.
Is that what you say? Isn't this a pit man? Even if you are agile and skillful, you can't turn a few years into months, right?
If you really want to do that, I'm afraid that it will be the same as Qin Shi Huang building the Great Wall, and it will cause public resentment to boil.
However, Fu Wenhan didn't say anything more, but planned to go back and ask his son-in-law.
If he can't do it after asking, then he can't do anything.
What followed was some daily chores, and Fu Wenhan's mind was not there, so he didn't listen carefully later.
At the same time, Fu Yuehua sat next to Li Xiuzhu, first filled a bowl of porridge, and then said, "Xiuzhu, see when you go and pick up Cheng Cheng." ”
