"What?"

Fang Linyuan heard Zhao Pu suddenly ask.

He raised his eyes: "Huh? ”

"You said you wanted to thank me." Zhao Pu said. "What is it?"

"Ahh Fang Linyuan came back to his senses. "Today, the emperor said that Naren Timur was entangled. I guess he didn't want to marry a wife in the first place, so he specially wanted a Han girl, just to go back to the Turks to show off his might. ”

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, interrupting Fang Linyuan.

He turned his head to look and saw that it was Zhao Pu's side who was in front of the door, holding a cup of tea in his hand.

Fang Linyuan hurriedly looked at Zhao Pu.

saw Zhao Pu raise his eyes slightly, and said, "It's okay, you go on." ”

saw Juan Su come forward, and actually put the tea in his hand: "Master Hou, please." ”

Fang Linyuan had just stood in the court hall for a long time, only to say that this tea was a long drought and timely rain.

didn't know that when he just returned home, Zhao Pu asked Juan Su to prepare tea.

"I originally wanted to blackmail Naren Timur with a treaty of non-aggression, but who knew that he really dazed that night." Fang Linyuan nodded and continued, not forgetting to raise his head and say thank you to Juan Su with a smile.

"When his men heard that you almost 'killed yourself,' they went and told him, scaring him enough."

The silk on the side was slightly stunned.

She has been serving by Zhao Pu's side since she was a child, and she knows his taboos very well. If it is said that the five highnesses hated him the most in his life, one is to bully and humiliate him because of his complexion, and the other is to ...... It was to bring such things back to him.

Especially in a joking tone like An Pinghou, he didn't know that he was already reaching out to pluck His Highness's scales.

Juan Su was about to remind Fang Linyuan by handing the tea, but saw that Fang Linyuan had already brought the tea to his mouth.

"As soon as he saw me today, he apologized one after another. When I mentioned the Han girl, he was so scared that he hurriedly told me that he was joking. ”

Silk Su couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Zhao Pu.

But I saw ......

saw Zhao Xuan's eyebrows raised slightly, and he actually followed An Pinghou with a lazy smile.

Not only did he not see the gloom at all, but he was laughing. The appearance of stretching his eyebrows was as if he had been infected by An Pinghou for two points.

Silk Su was slightly stunned.

Where had she seen the appearance of the Fifth Highness.

"If you say that you committed suicide, it should be your credit." Over there, Zhao Pu even made his tone two points clearer, and said slowly.

"That's right. It's really two moves faster than my chess, and I really scared this brute. An Pinghou smiled, picked up the teacup and took two sips.

"Hmmm! Good tea! I didn't even have a place to sit in the hall, and I was really thirsty. ”

The tea cup blocked Fang Linyuan's sight, and when Juan Su saw it, the eyes of the Fifth Highness narrowed with a smile.

Silk Su bowed her head and withdrew.

The shadow has been with the master for many years, and suddenly it seems to be a different person, and even the reverse scale seems to be born in the wrong place.

Seeing this scene, it must be that she didn't sleep very well last night, and she was on duty too early today, and she got up violently, so she should go back and sleep again.

——

The biggest problem was solved, and the peace talks between Daxuan and the Turks went a lot smoother.

In addition to paying the annual tribute to Daxuan, Naren Timur had already had the idea of opening up the mutual market and trading grain, salt and iron with Daxuan.

Emperor Hongyou summoned Fang Linyuan again, saying that everything on the side had been negotiated, but the matter of salt and iron was a major plan of the country, and the ministers of the court and China were arguing endlessly, and there was still no judgment.

Fang Linyuan was against it.

Salt aside, fine iron can forge swords. If the Turks obtained the fine iron forged by Daxuan and used it to forge weapons, then Daxuan would have done the act of attacking his own spear and attacking his own shield.

When Emperor Hongyou heard this, he thought so.

Unexpectedly, a few days later, news came from the palace that Naren Timur was willing to exchange a Turkic princess for a Turkic princess, and asked Daxuan to allow him to exchange salt and iron.

Emperor Hongyou passed Fang Linyuan into the palace again.

"I'm calling Aiqing here today, or because of the contract." Emperor Hongyou said. "Crown Prince Timur asked me to open the salt and iron market, and even did not hesitate to send the princess to come and make peace. Now the ministers of the court have persuaded me to agree, and it is really difficult for me to refuse. ”

Fang Linyuan wanted to speak and stopped.

How can he tell Emperor Hongyou! On that day, he shot off the head of Naren Timur's brother, and he applauded in the tent. Not to mention that the current Turkic Great Khan has more than 30 children, and it is easy for them to marry a princess far away.

Fang Linyuan had no choice but to kowtow and say: "Then the minister asks Your Majesty to stick to the bottom line, only agree to trade refined salt with the Turks, and still refuse to market the railway." ”

"Is that possible?" Emperor Hongyou asked.

"The Turks can't refine the fine iron of the Central Plains, but there is still crude iron available, which is not a top priority for them, and it is only to confuse the public when compared with salt." Fang Linyuan said. "Salt is only for the needs of people's livelihood, but fine iron is for conquest. The difference between the two is that Your Majesty please think twice. ”

Emperor Hongyou pondered for a moment, and finally nodded.

"I see." He said. "Thanks to Aiqing by her side. Although the ministers of the DPRK and China were thoughtful, they still had never been on the battlefield, and foreign affairs were only on paper. ”

"Your Majesty's praise." Fang Linyuan said.

"Naren Timur will leave Beijing on the tenth day of the first month. I wanted to keep you for a little longer, but now that trade is imminent, I can't rest assured that I don't have Aiqing in charge. Emperor Hongyou said.

Fang Linyuan's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Can you finally go! His Majesty Chrysostom said that the meaning of these words was probably urging him to pack his bags.

He hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "The ambition of the Turkic wolf has not disappeared, and the minister is willing to garrison the frontier to appease His Majesty's sacred heart." ”

Hongyou

Emperor Wenyan nodded.

"I have Aiqing, I can rest assured." He said. "Aiqing will prepare slowly when she goes back, and when the weather is warmer, I will personally send Aiqing out of the city."

——

Fang Linyuan reported the matter to his eldest sister-in-law when he went back.

When Song Zhaojin learned that he was leaving, he couldn't help but complain.

"In such a hurry? Only then did the emperor sign a contract with the Turks, and the Turks wanted to pay tribute and exchange markets, and the border would be stable for at least three or five years. You've only been married for a month now, and you have to guard the border, don't you want your home? ”

Fang Linyuan had no choice but to smile on the side: "Your Majesty's holy will, I don't want to disobey." ”

Song Zhaojin sighed when he heard this.

"Your Majesty doesn't feel sorry for His Royal Highness at all." She said. "How can a newlywed Yan'er teach her daughter to separate her husband and wife?"

Fang Linyuan quietly scratched his head beside him.

Why don't you feel distressed? His eldest sister-in-law didn't see Zhao Pu in the palace.

After complaining a few words, Song Zhaojin also knew that the holy intention could not be changed, and the other party Lin Yuan sighed: "Her Royal Highness the princess, I can't bear her to follow my old path." Even if you have to go back to the border to guard, you have to know to cherish your life. Since you have been pleased with Her Royal Highness for a long time, you must not break her heart again, but if you have three longs and two shorts, what should she do? ”

Fang Linyuan solemnly agreed, and said: "Sister-in-law, just rest assured, I will talk to Her Royal Highness the princess and let him take care of you and Changnian more in Beijing." ”

Song Zhaojin shook his head: "We don't matter, it's you." In two days, it will be the Flower Dynasty Festival, and you must not forget to take the princess to visit the flower market. From now on, the two of you will have to gather less and leave more, and you don't know when you will see each other again. ”

"Ah......h

I also want to accompany Zhao Pu to see the flowers!

Although he can say a good word to Zhao Pu now, they are always two men. It's so strange to go to see the flowers side by side!

Fang Linyuan was about to find an excuse to refuse, but turned his head, but saw that his eldest sister-in-law had touched something sad again, and was picking up a handkerchief and wiping her tears with her head down.

His eldest sister-in-law has bad eyes and must not cry again.

"Sister-in-law, don't be sad, didn't you say it all? If you can't fight in three or five years, I'll be safe, so you can rest assured. Fang Linyuan hurriedly comforted.

"Listen to you, I will invite the princess to visit the flower market in two days, and on Chinese New Year's Eve next year, I will come back to accompany you to enjoy the lanterns."

Just go, just go, gritted your teeth, and the night passed quickly.

Fang Linyuan thought to himself.

——

In the next two days, Fang Linyuan was busy for two days, and he didn't have time until the evening of the Flower Dynasty Festival.

It's really a matter of leaving, and there are too many things to prepare. His horse needed a pair of farriers to get on the road, and as the weather got warmer, he needed a new saddle sheath. His father and brother left a lot of military books and codexes in the mansion, all of which were extremely important documents that needed to be sorted out.

Therefore, he only sent Yan Ting to ask Zhao Xuan if he was free, and after agreeing on the time, he waited for him outside Huaiyu Pavilion that evening.

Zhao Pu showed up on time.

He changed into a plain dress today, although it was still a brilliant brocade, but it was much more refreshing than his usual dress. Now that the spring is getting stronger, and the night is no longer so cold, his clothes are thinner, and there is some pretentiousness on his chest.

His hair is adorned with pearls and jade, and a pair of white jade ears under his ears are jingling, shining in the night, and they are quite beautiful.

As soon as Fang Linyuan stepped forward, he met those eyes.

Fang Linyuan was slightly stunned.

Zhao Pu seems to be ...... Not too happy?

Although those eyes were no more than the gloomy snake eyes of the past, they were somehow cold and a little sparse. The two of them looked at each other, and after a pause, Zhao Pu coldly staggered his gaze.

He doesn't want to go out, huh?

Fang Linyuan thought about it for a while, and felt that it was too.

He himself is traveling with a man, why is Zhao Pu forced to accompany a man to go shopping? The two of them can be regarded as sympathetic to each other, and to a certain extent, Zhao Pu can also be regarded as accommodating him.

After all, he wanted not to make his eldest sister-in-law sad, but Zhao Pu clearly didn't come.

Thinking like this, Fang Linyuan only felt that Zhao Pu could also be regarded as righteous anger.

He stepped forward and stood side by side with Zhao Pu. When they walked out together, Fang Linyuan whispered on the side: "Thank you for being willing to go out today." ”

Zhao Pu on the side lowered his eyes.

Alas, I guess I also feel aggrieved. It would be better for them to go their separate ways in a while, make an appointment at the time, and meet again at the street corner.

But at this moment, Zhao Pu's cold, slightly dumb pseudo-voice sounded beside him, light and fluttering, like a night breeze blowing in his ears.

"Master Hou is leaving, I only learned from my eldest sister-in-law." He said.

Ah, yes, didn't Zhao Pu already know that he was leaving?

He looked at Zhao Pu puzzled, not knowing what he meant.

saw Zhao Pu beside him meet his unclear gaze, his lips moved a few times, and he didn't make a sound.

This appearance actually showed a bit of inexplicable resentment.

"You ......" Fang Linyuan didn't know where to put his hand.

Fortunately, Zhao Xuan's eyebrows drooped and he stopped looking at him.

"Master Hou has been busy for the past two days, and he didn't even find time to talk to me." But I heard him say this.

…… Ha?

Fang Linyuan looked around.

They went out today, and specially retreated from the subordinates, and now there are only the two of them within a radius of several feet. Is Zhao Pu addicted to acting, or is he meticulous and thoughtful?

Fang Linyuan looked at Zhao Pu with some admiration and shook his head with emotion.

Zhao Puqi is really a material for doing great things! ：，，.
