Chapter XII
Yao Pu stood in the middle of the house with his hands in his hands, and when the weather warmed up, he planted orchids in that open space again. Thinking that at the beginning, when the orchid had not yet bloomed like this, he once stroked the thin leaves with his fingertips in a depressed manner: "If it doesn't bloom well, it will ......", so what? He didn't say it at all. Every now and then, Qiu Qi stood aside in fear, she felt that the head of the family was not in a good mental state, his dignified appearance and orchid anger, the scene was really weird.
Qiu Qi stood behind him, she couldn't see the black clouds condensed in Yao Pu's eyes, and the master's eyes were as silent as a dead tan, but as Yao Pu thought about how to deal with the orchid, slowly, there seemed to be some fireworks dancing in the depths of the dead tan, which could not be extinguished, and water and fire coexisted, making people frightened...... When such eyes stare at each other, the feeling of suffocation falls down overwhelmingly, like a dying fish caught in a fine net, but the thirst for death exceeds the desire for life.
But even if Qiu Qi was standing in front of him, she couldn't read anything from Yao Pu's eyes, he buried the secret in his heart, he wouldn't write it on his face, and he didn't reveal a single point in his eyes. Those who are not allowed can only secretly build nets in the dark, and build nets that will be discovered and cleared at some point.
However, if Qiu Qi was allowed to tidy up her master's study, maybe she would be able to understand Yao Pu, but she didn't know that on the hundreds of pieces of silk paper she saw, the expensive royal paper that Yao Pu used to practice calligraphy and cultivate his mind, was full of "raising His Majesty is like raising orchids", whether she understood more or was afraid of more.
The more you know, the faster you die, it's always true. Fortunately, the study is Yao Pu's taboo, and she doesn't have the opportunity to test on the edge of death.
Yao Pu finally just stretched out his bony hand, played with it, played with it, and returned to the study. There are still many things for him to do: the restless king, the sinister Xinu, and the intricate power of the capital......
He couldn't wait to take all these pickled things and put Jiang Churan on a high platform to serve high, but if the emperor understood his hard work and pity, he would be a loyal servant through the ages...... It's a pity that Jiang Churan is not, she is a monarch who is eager to take power and is completely pro-government.
Yu Xin - Northwest Emergency, Yao Pu closed his eyes, he expected that there would be a fierce battle between Xinu and Tianqi before, but he didn't expect that this new khan would move so fast, and in just three months, he would recruit more than 4,000 people, so the momentum had to make people vigilant.
He crouched on the desk, holding the wolf's hair, and waved his pen: watch as usual and garrison Qiang City.
……
Jiang Churan was lying on the chaise longue, looking at the list of forbidden troops, Yun Zhi stood aside and hugged the wind chimes and gave it hair.
Chang Ming stood outside the hall and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, Chang Ming asks to see you." ”
Jiang Churan heard his voice and nodded to Yun Zhi behind her, Yun Zhi put the wind chimes on the cushion next to him, walked to the door of the hall, opened the door, and gave a salute: "Chief Administrator, come in." ”
Chang Ming was a little relieved to see that she was looking at the thin list of forbidden troops, and then handed a letter and a package to Yun Zhi: "Your Majesty, the letter from the city over there." ”
Jiang Churan turned the page with his fingers, moved his gaze to Changming's face, and took the letter with one hand: "Auntie's letter? ”
Changming lowered his head: "Yes." ”
After getting an affirmative answer, Jiang Churan couldn't wait to open the letter, and his voice was dyed with excitement: "It's a reply!" I should be invited to escape the summer this summer, and I will go there before, but after the prison country, I will be negligent over there. ”
Jiang Churan saw the letter from beginning to end, and his smile froze to the corners of his mouth, and Yun Zhi and Changming's hearts jumped when they saw it: "Yun Niang, open the package." ”
Yun Zhi did not hesitate, opened the outer layer of hemp paper, and a book leaked out: "The Way of Soldiers"
The book was placed in Jiang Churan's hand, her eyebrows and eyes were shy, and she flipped it casually: "Changming, you called Li Zhengyuan to me." ”
After Yun Zhi sent Changming out, seeing that Jiang Churan was still listless, he asked, "What's wrong?" Your Majesty. ”
"My aunt said that I am the Son of Heaven, and the matter of traveling is a big matter, and I can't be willful." Her voice was muffled.
Jiang Churan lifted the book, and Yun Zhi took it easily: "She wrote the letter to recommend people to me." ”
"Is this the author of the book?"
Jiang Churan nodded, and his attention returned to the roster.
"Gu Changlin" her uncle, Jiang Jinlan's husband, the person she wants to recommend.
"Then Your Majesty wants to ......" Yun Zhi's concerns, Jiang Churan understood, even if she was the emperor, she couldn't add someone to the court at will, not to mention that if she was a relative, there would be more pairs of eyes staring.
Jiang Churan sat up and glanced at the military book in Yun Zhi's hand again: "Aunt Jinlan sent this book because she didn't want to be embarrassed. ”
She stood up, walked to the window, looked at the green bamboo swaying in the breeze, and said: "Gu Changlin is not useless, I saw this book when I went to Mancheng a few years ago, but it was not written yet, and I knew that he was a talent at that time. ”
Jiang Churan paused and suddenly said: "I see, no wonder my aunt must introduce her husband to me, and now it seems that it is for today." ”
Yun Zhi thought about it, and there was indeed such a thing: "I heard rumors before that the princess and the concubine were not in harmony, but now it seems that it is not at all." ”
"Yunzhi, you don't know, Gu Changlin is not doing well in Mancheng." Jiang Churan looked at the sky: "He is rich, and he has no official position, and the people in the city look down on him." ”
She turned her head to look at Yun Zhi with a serious expression: "Come to think of it, the situation is not getting better, and my aunt is begging me to give him a chance to save him." ”
Yun Zhi seemed to understand how the rumors came from, and only in this way could he tell the outside world that he Gu Changlin was not favored by the princess, so as to alleviate the scrutiny on him and not be killed by people's jealousy.
"I've got to help with that."
Jiang Jinlan said that if he hadn't married her, Gu Changlin wouldn't have been so inactive, and he shouldn't have continued to disappear in the boudoir. He was originally Huazhu, and he had no willingness or unwillingness, and he would be enlightened.
……
"Your Majesty, Li Langzhong, the staff of the Ministry of War, has arrived." Changming's movements were not slow, and the three incense sticks came back.
"Xuan."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
Jiang Churan raised his eyes to look, a trace of amazement flashed in his eyes, he didn't look carefully at the Qionglin banquet, but now he really looks like a young man, like a spring mountain.
"Get up and talk back."
Jiang Churan signaled, Yun Zhi understood, and handed him the military book in his hand: "Aiqing, take a look, how about it?" ”
Li Zhengyuan raised his hand to take it, he didn't dare to slack off, he opened it and looked at it carefully, it was only a few pages, and he couldn't help but admire: "Back to Your Majesty, this soldier's book is full of words, and his views on marching and fighting are unique and exquisite, and this person must be a ghost." ”
Jiang Churan had a smile in his eyes and asked, "How is it compared to you, a Shenchuan mountain man?" ”
Li Zhengyuan, who was still admiring the book in his hand, was stunned when he heard this, and when he raised his head, he returned to normal in an instant: "What did Your Majesty say?" The minister didn't hear clearly. ”
Jiang Churan stared at him and smiled: "Long admiration, Shenchuan mountain people." ”
Her tone was not a question, and Li Zhengyuan no longer hid it: "How does Your Majesty recognize the minister?" ”
Jiang Churan looked at him: "Who in the world doesn't know the Shenchuan mountain people who gave the first emperor three plans and took Huaiyuan?" You wrote it yourself to my mother, and I received it very well, and I felt familiar when I read your test paper, but I didn't know for sure......" She paused, and her gaze moved to his wrist: "Until the Qionglin banquet, when you poured wine, you leaked a Xiuyu bracelet made of multicolored silk threads on your wrist. ”
Li Zhengyuan unconsciously touched his left wrist, and through the sleeve, he could feel the roundness of the jade.
There was a hint of hoarseness in his voice: "The minister dares to ask, what is the connection between the two?" ”
Jiang Churan pulled his hair and asked, "You wore a hat to go to my mother's main tent, can you see me?" ”
Hearing this, Li Zhengyuan thought about it carefully and replied honestly: "No." "That was Jiang Churan was only three years old, and on the way to the march, how could the first emperor take his young daughter with him.
"My mother asked you what reward you wanted, and you took this bracelet casually, yes or no?"
"Yes." Thinking about it, he regretted it, he was also young and vigorous, and he didn't look down on fame and fortune at all, so he took this casually.
Jiang Churan smiled softly: "That's it, the thing Aiqing wore was made by me when I was young, my mother refused to tell me the truth, and Aiqing asked me to find it." ”
"The minister is terrified." Li Zhengyuan hurriedly knelt down when he heard this, and with a "bang", Jiang Churan's knees hurt.
Don't blame Li Zhengyuan, the coercion of the superior is too heavy, even if Li Zhengbang and Xu Yuanshan kneel in front of Jiang Churan, they have to sweat at the corners of their foreheads at this time. But intimidating him was not the ultimate goal, so he waved his hand: "Aiqing get up quickly, I didn't blame you, I just remembered it for a while." ”
