42 Chapter 42

"Your words are not right."

Hehua corrected Zhang Han's words, "What does it mean that even if he insists on revenge, it doesn't matter? There is an obstacle, if he is such a smart person, it would be a pity if he could not be used by his father. "

"You can't waste such a genius." Hehua put down the silver fork and reached out to shake Zhang Han's shoulder, "If you think of a way, you must persuade him to come back."

Zhang Han couldn't help laughing, "Princess, this matter can't be forced." "

"If you can't get rid of the hatred in his heart, recruit him by your side, and with his cleverness, it is easy to put Your Majesty and the princess in danger."

"Well, then don't force it." Hehua flattened his mouth, "Let's meet him first and see what he says." ”

"But this matter must be hidden from my father."

Hehua, who is not as tall as Yingzheng's sword, was lying on the desk, his little pink face pillowed on his arm, with a childish sorrow, "I have grown up, and my father still treats me as a child, so he will not ask me to meet the descendants of the Six Kingdoms in private."

"She's right, I really won't ask her to go." Ying Zheng put the approved fold on the imperial case, and opened the new fold held by the little temple man with his slender fingers.

I don't know if it's because of the vitamin milk and calcium tablets that Xiao Shiyi took from Yang Siqi, in recent days, he feels that his spirit is much better than before, his arms are rarely sore, and his neck does not sting from time to time, and even the palpitations after being suddenly awakened in a dream have improved, and he seems to have returned to his youth in a trance, tired and energetic.

The emperor paused slightly as he flipped through the folds.

Maybe it's not just because of what Xiao Eleven brought back, there is another Eleven, scarred with a night pearl in his hand, under the light of the night pearl as bright as the moon, the scars on his hands are particularly shocking, but she has always loved beauty and is afraid of pain, she doesn't care at all, only carefully puts it in his heart, and then everything is different.

He felt her, called her name, and the person who didn't care about the scar and pain turned his back in an instant, like a frightened deer. - She is not afraid of the pain of life and death, nor of the ugly scars on her body, she has long been unable to distinguish her original appearance, she is only afraid that he will see those wounds on her body.

Ying Zheng's heart twitched hard.

"She's too young to know how to protect herself."

Ying Zheng was silent for a moment, raised his hand and closed the fold, his voice did not distinguish between joy and anger, "There are many things that she didn't have to do, but she didn't listen to me, and insisted on doing these things. &#

34;

These words are quite profound, there are words in the words, Meng Yi looked up at the emperor who was sitting on the main seat, and he was still talking to him while reviewing the recital, and at this time he had withdrawn his hand, his expression was faint, so that people couldn't see what the mood was.

Hmm, don't seem to be in a good mood? Is it because the little princess insists on seeing the remnants of the Six Kingdoms?

It seems to be. It doesn't seem to be. After thinking about it carefully, it was probably because of Princess Hehua in another world.

The people who follow the emperor are all human spirits, as long as they are not blind, they can find clues from the emperor's anger that night, one is the temple man he admires a lot, and the other is his favorite youngest son, if it weren't for the absurdity of the two of them, how could His Majesty deal with them with such a tragic means?

Your Majesty is a sad and tragic death of Princess Hehua in the trajectory of history.

How could the little princess, who regarded His Majesty and Da Qin as more important than her own life, sit idly by while watching Hu Hai and Zhao Gao take power? Her fate was doomed the moment His Majesty died—death.

Meng Yi was silent.

Unlike his brother Meng Tian, who could comfort Ying Zheng with a sharp touch, Meng Yi pondered for a moment and opened his mouth in his own way, "Your Majesty and the princess have the same thoughts, and they are both treating each other well in their own way."

"Your Majesty wishes the princess peace and joy, and the princess hopes that Your Majesty will live a long life, and that there are countless capable people under him, and that the Great Qin will never be destroyed."

"I know."

Winning politics is slow.

"Since Your Majesty knows, you might as well put aside the government affairs in your hands and go out of the palace with the princess to take a look."

Meng Yi smiled, "The remnants of the Six Kingdoms have been destroyed, there is a lot of peace in Xianyang City, and there are a lot of Hu merchants who come to Xianyang to do business today, and the ministers have asked the guards to strengthen their inspections of the city, so that the merchants can trade with confidence."

"In this case, it doesn't hurt for Your Majesty to go outside." Meng Yi said, "Speaking of which, Your Majesty has not traveled with the princess for a long time."

After the opening of the Silk Road, from His Majesty the Emperor to the officials without rank, the businessmen, and even the leaders of Xianyang City were all busy.

For His Majesty the Emperor and his ministers, this was an excellent time to collect taxes and fill the empty treasury. For businessmen who are unprofitable and can't afford to make a lot of money, this is a golden road that can make them a lot of money.

For the Qiantou people, they face the loess with their backs to the sky, and their ancestors have been digging in the soil for generations

A common thing.

Now it is different, with the grain that can produce thousands of catties per mu, they finally don't have to eat anymore, they can finally eat a full stomach, and live in this world that is not friendly to farmers. And these grains are not squeamish, they are very easy to serve, so that they can go to the city to find something to do after planting food, move things for the merchants, and give a hand to the Hu merchants who come from afar to speak lame Qin, and earn some money to subsidize their families.

Busy, it's money.

Everyone was busy, but there were few complaints, for these people who had experienced hundreds of years of war, they finally survived to this day of prosperity and peace, and saw all the nations come to court and enjoy prosperity.

As the master of this unprecedentedly powerful dynasty, Ying Zheng was busy with more things, Hu Shang and Qin people have different languages, customs and habits, and in the case of poor communication, it is easy to have contradictions, how to avoid these things, how to settle Hu Shang, how to stabilize trade and set prices, how to collect taxes to replenish the treasury, these are all things that need to be decided by Ying Zheng himself.

Of course, as an emperor, he needs to be busy with much more than that.

All countries come to the dynasty, the merchants and leaders of Kyushu in the world also gather in Xianyang, want to get a piece of the prosperity from the prosperity, at this time Xianyang City can not accommodate so many people, many people live outside the city, not only personal safety and property can not be basically guaranteed, the quality of the hastily built houses is a safety hazard, the dry season, once the fire spreads, it will swallow the lives of many people.

At this time, it is especially important for the guards to patrol to prevent sudden water or house collapse.

Of course, this method treats the symptoms but not the root cause, and only by expanding Xianyang City can these problems be completely solved.

But expansion requires money, land, and people, and it is a big number, not a number that can be pulled up in a short period of time. And the current policy is to lightly pay a small tax, recuperate, once the construction is large, it is to break the national policy set before Yingzheng, is to lose trust in the people, so even if the expansion of Xianyang City is imminent, Yingzheng is not in a hurry to expand, but first planned the land, when the time is ripe, and then build a new Xianyang City.

It is not easy to fight the country, and it is also difficult to defend the country, especially when the world is unified and all the ruins are waiting to be revived, and it is more necessary to test the ability, courage and vision of the ruler, and every decision he makes is related to the lives and lives of tens of thousands of people, and he cannot make mistakes, and the price of his mistakes is too high and too high.

Of course, the body of the decision-maker is also tested.

The emperor, who was in slightly poor health, could easily not bear this kind of high pressure, and after a few years in power, he left to go west.

- His Majesty's father is a good example.

Busy with government affairs all day, at this time

His Majesty the Emperor has not traveled with the little princess for a long time, but fortunately, the little princess is extremely sensible, never bothering His Majesty with this matter, looking for fun by herself, finding things to do by herself, and even taking the initiative to help Your Majesty share government affairs, which is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.

For such a princess, Meng Yi's eyes were full of liking, "If Your Majesty can go with the princess to meet that person, the princess will be very happy."

"If I go, she and the man will only be uncomfortable." Win the political sleeve.

Meng Yi said with a smile, "In this case, Your Majesty will not let them know, and after they finish talking about things, Your Majesty will appear in front of the princess again and travel to Xianyang at night with the princess."

"Princess, are we really going to spend the night outside the palace?"

Han Shu was worried, "If you don't go back at night, you will definitely alarm Meng Shangqing, and if Meng Shangqing knows, Your Majesty will also know, and at that time, the princess will not be able to hide the matter of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms."

Lu Pheasant just sent someone to send the news, she suddenly came to something, and she couldn't leave people for the time being, so she didn't go back to the palace to look for Hehua, and made an appointment to meet outside the palace, saving the time to go back and forth into the palace and leaving the palace, and spent it on the matter of a few people traveling to Xianyang at night.

Hiding from His Majesty to see the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, and even not returning at night, this kind of thing just thinking about it makes Han Shu's scalp tingle, "Princess, for the sake of safety, let's go back to the palace after seeing that person."

"Don't be afraid, Zhang Han has already told Wang Li, when we leave the palace, Wang Li's carriage will come to pick us up."

Hehua helped Han Shu's hand to get into the sedan chair, and his childish face was full of confidence, "If you go to the official, your father will definitely not be at ease, but if you go to Wang Li's house, your father won't think much about it."

Han Shu sighed, "The Marquis of Wucheng is bold enough to help the princess hide from His Majesty."

Since the Shang Dynasty changed the law, the Great Qin has judged military merits by heads, and sealed the princes with military merits, and all the princes in each other's court have all earned it in the battlefield.

But Wang Li is different, his Wucheng Marquis is not in exchange for military merits, Wang Jian Wang Ben father and son joined forces to destroy the Five Kingdoms, although the war achievements are outstanding, but Wang Jian also boiled down his body in the southern and northern wars, Chu State just destroyed, Wang Jian went west, Daqin lost the general's star, Yingzheng was grateful for Wang Qian's military exploits, and named Wang Li, who was still a milk doll at that time, as the Marquis of Wucheng, and was the only one among the princes who relied on his ancestors to seal the marquis.

Although it is not a marquis who relies on military merits, but the world sees the military exploits of Wang Jian and Wang Ben, the Wang family is full of loyalty and martyrs, and countless sons and daughters have died in battle

On the face of the sons and daughters who died fighting for the country, it is not an exaggeration to be a marquis of Wucheng.

Not to mention that Wang Li's Marquis of Wucheng is only an honorary Marquis and does not hold real power, so even if he is not a Marquis who is awarded by military merits, there is not much about him as a Marquis in the government and the opposition.

- Your Majesty coaxed the milk doll without the protection of his grandfather, if they refused to let go of even a milk doll, then what became of them? It's too bad for the demeanor and bearing that the princess and nobleman should have!

In this way, the milk doll Wuchenghou was unanimously recognized by everyone.

"Of course, he is the grandson of General Wang, the son of the general, how can he not be bold after the gate?"

Hehua glanced at Zhang Han, who was walking on a horse outside the sedan curtain, and pointed at Zhang Han, "You still missed a person, and Zhang Han is also very bold." "He is only bold in the affairs of the princess." Han Su shook his head helplessly, "If it is replaced by other things, he will be cautious and not leaky."

After a general's ancestor who made great achievements in war and grew up beside His Majesty the Emperor, how could an ordinary person who climbed up from the bottom by means and scheming have the same style?

"It's enough for him to be bold in my business."

Hehua said with a smile, As for other things, I want Wang Li to be as proper as Zhang Han, he is always in a hurry, and he is not stable at all.

Han Shu couldn't help laughing, and reached out to poke Hehua's forehead, "Compared to the princess, Wucheng Hou is stable enough."

The two of them laughed and talked in the sedan chair, and the chirping laughter came out from time to time.

——The little princess in the sedan chair seems to be born with the power to heal people's hearts, and wherever she goes, she can bring laughter and laughter.

But soon, no matter how much the little princess healed people's hearts, she couldn't stop the young man opposite, the young Qiu Huafu, riding on horseback, followed by a large group of attendants, maybe the aristocratic young man had a big temper, the young man's face was not good, there was a faint impatience between his eyebrows, and he looked up at the sky from time to time, as if he was waiting for someone.

In the next moment, the young man Yu Guang realized the existence of the sedan chair, and the depression on his face was swept away, and he smiled at the sedan chair in an instant.

Zhang Han narrowed his eyes.

Lang Jiang is the Marquis of Wucheng.

The guards said to Zhang Han.

Zhang Han's head.

"Eleven!"

The young man's voice was loud and he rode his horse. His riding skills are obviously excellent, horses

The hooves rolled up the yellow dust, and he rushed over like an arrow from a string.

Zhang Han's good mood was swept away.

You're late again.

The young man soon came to the sedan chair, I have been waiting for you for a long time, if you don't come out again, I will go to play by myself and will not take you. The boy who was raised by Ying Zheng since he was a child is no different from the son of Da Qin, he was regarded by Ying Zheng as his own, and he grew up with Hehua, and the two of them were extreme

Familiar, if they were outside the palace, the two would never call each other by their names, rather than calling Hehua a princess.

Hehua in the sedan chair said in a milky voice, "I'm not late, I left the palace at the appointed time."

You quibble again.

The young man said, Look at the sky, what time is it now? You're an hour late!

As he spoke, the young man stretched out his hand and grabbed the veil on the side of the sedan chair.

The guards knew the identity of the young man, and did not stop his movements, Zhang Han frowned, the young man had already lifted the sedan chair, pointed to the sky that was about to be dark, and said to the little princess inside, Look for yourself, what time is it?

"Yes, you're there." Hehua Dao, didn't you make an appointment with me?

Wang Li stretched out a finger, and his finger knocked on the small brain case of Hehua, What unitary time? You're misremembering again, I agreed with you that it was Shen Shi.

"Oh, don't touch my hair." Hehua raised his hand and knocked off Wang Li's hand, Han Su combed me for a long time to comb it so beautiful, you are not allowed to move.

Hehua raised his two small hands, covered his little brain, and said to Wang Li, "I am not mistaken, it is you who remember the wrong time.

You don't even know the time, you deserve to wait here for so long. The boy laughed, "You're still quibbling, it's clearly you-"

"Marquis Wucheng, let's go." Zhang Han on the side said lightly, If it is delayed any longer, I am afraid that it will be a mistake for the princess.

The young man remembered the reason why Hehua left the palace, so he generously stopped caring about her being late, and flicked Hehua's small forehead, When you finish your business, I will reason with you again.

…… It's obvious that you have misremembered the time!

Hehua was not convinced.

This person is so annoying.

Obviously, he remembered the wrong time, and blamed her for making him wait for a long time, which was too bullying! She doesn't want to play with him anymore!

Well, here you go.

Wang Li took the food box from the waiter, and handed the food box to Han Su through the sedan curtain, The new chef in the house is very good at making dim sum.

!!!

She is willing to play with Wang Li!

Hehua is very happy, thank you!

"No thanks."

Wang Li snorted lightly, "Don't be late next time, otherwise the taste of the dim sum will not be good, this kind of thing must be eaten while it is hot." Hehua's voice was soft, "I know!"

Han Su opened the food box, and the little palace people tried it with silver chopsticks, and nothing happened after a while, and Han Su also fed the dim sum to Hehua.

"Hmm, it's delicious!"

Dim sum melts in your mouth, Hehua likes it very much, Wang Li, where did you find your cook? The dim sum made is much more delicious than the one in the palace. Wang Li was very arrogant, blind, and spent money to find it. "As long as there is enough money, the chefs who can make dim sum will compete for it."

It's not that the people in the palace don't know how to make dim sum, but - Wang Li's voice stopped in the summer.

- He saw that in the crowd not far away, Meng Yi was dressed in regular clothes, pretending to be an ordinary nobleman's child, guarding in front of a delicate and gorgeous sedan chair. Through the sedan curtain, he couldn't see the faces of the people in the sedan chair, only Meng Yi outside the sedan chair lazily raised his eyebrows and looked at him, as if waiting for his unfinished words.

How did this damn Meng Yi come out!

During the time he was raised in the palace, he probably sympathized with his mother's loss at a young age, his father and grandmother were fighting outside, His Majesty was extremely arrogant to him, and even the high-flying and domineering Huhai Gongzi did not dare to grab things with him, relying on His Majesty's favor, he was in the palace to be windy and rainy, and his life was more comfortable than that of his sons.

probably really can't get used to it, one day he made a mistake, Meng Yi arrested him and beat him, how could he be so smug after the door? If he is not taught a lesson, he will be ruined.

After beating him, Meng Yi went to find His Majesty's leading army stick, so that His Majesty was helpless. For this kind of person who would rather lead the army to beat him than beat him, it was a nightmare for him who was young and ignorant, and he trembled when he saw Meng Yi.

Now that he is older, he is bolder than before, and he sees that Meng Yi is no longer trembling, but his calves are trembling faintly. - Meng Yi often punished him for the shadow left by Zamabu.

Wang Li swallowed

, successfully swallowed all the unfinished words.

Meng Yi is here, then His Majesty must have also left the palace, and most of the people in the sedan chair are His Majesty.

He was not afraid to expose His Majesty's shortcomings, and said in front of His Majesty that the dim sum in the palace was unpalatable because of His Majesty's intentions, and he was afraid that Eleven would steal the dim sum, so he was not allowed to let the palace people make delicious dim sum, but he did not dare to say this kind of thing in front of Meng Yi, if the generals were His Majesty's spears, then Meng Yi was the sharpest sword in His Majesty's hand, offending His Majesty, His Majesty was broad-minded, and he might not take it to heart, but if he offended His Majesty in front of Meng Yi, it would be the old birthday star hanging himself and seeking his own death.

"And what?" The sedan chair sounded the milk of Hehua.

Wang Li forced himself to withdraw his gaze, Uh, nothing. "Let's go, don't delay your business."

"yes, you can't be late." Hehua smiled, "If you're late, that person will definitely be angry."

How? Still angry?

Lu Pheasant poured a cup of tea, smiled and looked at the man lying in front of him with his eyes closed, Angry I used your things to send a signal to Zhang Han and asked him to bring the princess to look for you?

How big is it?

"It's worth not even eating?"

Okay, if you don't eat it, I'll throw it all out and feed the dogs.

Lu Pheasant put down the teacup, raised his hand and brought out all the meals neatly placed on the food table, Feed the dog, the dog still knows how to wag its tail at me. Feed you? Hmph, not even a good word can fall.

There was a thin dog tied in the yard, and when he saw Lu Pheasant coming out with food, he immediately got up from the ground and wagged his tail at Lu Pheasant.

"That's good."

Lu Pheasant poured the food into the dog bowl, stretched out his hand to rub the thin dog, and deliberately let the men in the room hear it in a loud voice, You, you are much more sensible than some men, you can not only take care of the house, but also make me happy, unlike some men, except for a good face, the temperament is simply unwatchable.

How can a good person have a mouth?

That's enough.

The man pretended to be asleep, got up and opened the window, and said to Lu Pheasant, who was feeding the dog in the yard, "Ejiao, since you know my identity, you shouldn't force me to do things I don't like."

"Who forced you to do something you don't like?"

Lu Pheasant sneered, "Zhang Zifang, open your eyes wide and see clearly, those leaders of the Korean homeland,

Is it good now, or is it good when King Han was alive?

Whose sight does your king see but himself as a man?" Even Han Feizi's death has nothing to do with him. ”

"Oh, by the way, the people who came to look for you today are not only the princess, but also an old friend of yours." After feeding the dog, Lu Pheasant got up and wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and went to knock on the door of the opposite room, After listening to it for so long, it is time for you to come out.

Ahem, the girl of the Lu family has a terrible mouth, and the old man is amazed. An old voice rang out in the room.

Zhang Liang frowned slightly. - Where do you seem to have heard this voice?

Don't laugh at me, who dares to compare with you in terms of lip service? Lu Pheasant smiled,

The old man smiled, "Old man, I can't say anything, I can't compare with you young people."

There was a creak, and the door opened. The old man with white hair walked out slowly, and his eyes fell on Zhang Liang at the window.

"The ovary, don't come to the ovary for years, don't come unharmed." The old man stopped at the door, his voice gentle.

Zhang Liang's pupils contracted suddenly.

The next moment, Zhang Liang quickly walked out of the room and stumbled towards the old man, but when he was about to walk in front of the old man, his movements stopped abruptly, as if he was afraid of puncturing his dream, and did not dare to step forward to have any physical contact with the old man.

"You, you—"

Zhang Liang's voice trembled violently, Are you still alive? The old man smiled, "Well, alive."

Don't stand in the yard, let's go inside and talk.

Lu Pheasant opened the door in the middle and made a gesture of invitation to the two people standing outside, "Come in, the princess should be there in a while."

"Wang Li, you get up and let me knock at the door." A soft and glutinous sound sounded outside the door.

Either of us knocks the same? The boy's voice was clear and cheerful, "I'll come, I'll come."

There was a sharp knock at the door.

Zhang Liang came back to his senses instantly, and his eyes suddenly turned cold. - Wang Li? Wang Jian's grandson? Wang Ben's son? How dare he come to him?!
