Time flies.

It has been two full months since Zhao Changqing returned to Luoyang.

Through this period of recuperation, basically, the injuries he suffered during the decisive battle with Zhao Hao have also healed.

As early as a month ago, the pensions for some soldiers who died in battle and the rewards for meritorious service had also been fully resolved.

The state of Wei was on the right track and entered a brief period of peace.

During these two months, nothing major happened.

The five tiger generals perform their duties.

Zhao Yun stayed in Luoyang, Xiao Yu understood that the two went to Chudi, and Yue Fei went to Jindi, echoing Chen Qingzhi and Xiang Yu from afar, and they could also take care of each other.

Li Cunxiao became the head of the forbidden army.

Zhao Changqing also made it clear when he passed a court meeting on the country's most important strategic policy.

The ultimate goal of Wei must be to dominate the world.

This is also the first time he has spoken out about his ambitions in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.

Everyone knows that it is different from the emperor taking the initiative to speak out.

The weather is getting colder.

In the winter of Luoyang City, there is still an endless stream of pedestrians on the road.

In the Xuanzheng Palace.

Zhao Changqing is handling political affairs as always.

After being the emperor for 16 years, he has become more and more proficient in handling government affairs.

"Yu Ming sent a letter saying that there is an abnormality in the Southern Barbarians, and I plan to take this opportunity to let Bai Qi form a force called the Demon Suppression Division, which is specifically aimed at the Wild Land Realm and the Demon Clan. ”

Zhao Changqing looked at Zhuge Liang, who was sitting by the stove to keep warm, and said.

He is also a land immortal cultivator, even if he only wears a thin shirt, he will not feel the cold.

But Zhuge Liang is different, after all, he is a generation of civil servants.

"Your Majesty's original intention of creating this organization is because of the Qingqiu Fox Clan?" Zhuge Liang wondered.

Zhao Changqing said: "In the past few months, Jian Yi and the others have been closely investigating the demon clan in the world, and have come to an astonishing conclusion, maybe those so-called demons have begun to lay out the human world very early, and they have the idea of invading the human world. For this reason, I also asked Daji, but I didn't get the answer I wanted, and she didn't know much about this matter. ”

Zhuge Liang fell into a brief contemplation.

He wanted to ask early in the morning why he hadn't seen the brothers of the Sword Pavilion.

In my heart, I only think that I am going to complete some task.

But I never thought that it was investigating the demon clan, and there was already a harvest.

"Your Majesty's worries are not unreasonable, but this matter is estimated to be slowed down, and the country's finances are just showing signs of recovery, and they can't afford to withstand any big tosses. Zhuge Liang believes that this matter is not the current top priority.

Zhao Changqing also thought deeply, "I have been thinking about this matter for a long time, even if I don't do it now, I will definitely do it in the future, and I want to tell you about it now, I also want to hear your opinion." ”

In the wilderness realm of Chudi, throughout the year, there are always so many mysterious tribes looking for trouble.

It is no wonder that in front of the army of the imperial court, any abnormal movement can be suppressed at the first time.

Zhuge Liang replied: "If according to what the Sword Saint said, then the plot of the demon clan will definitely come out one day, as far as it is now, the demon clan should not have much action, this matter, it is better to delay it for a few years, and when the Tang State is conquered, it will not be too late to be formed." ”

Zhao Changqing nodded, "The prime minister wants to keep this matter in mind, if you really want to create a demon hunting division at that time, you will definitely have to worry a lot about it, prime minister." ”

Zhuge Liang felt early on that there must be no simple thing for the demon clan to suddenly move in the realm of the human world.

Before, I had never heard of any strenuous activities of the demon clan in the human world.

But since the fox demon sister broke through the seal of the so-called human sages, it seems that monsters have begun to appear in the world.

First the fox clan, and then some demon beasts appeared in various places to attack ordinary people.

It seems that all of this is the prelude to the coming rain and the wind is full of buildings.

It has to be treated with caution.

"Wechen knows, about the matter of the demon clan, Wechen will definitely treat it with all his might. ”

This kind of thing is not a joke.

"Gao Lishi, what's going on outside? I don't know if I'm dealing with government affairs, do you want to keep quiet?"

During the conversation between the two, Zhao Changqing heard a noisy voice outside the palace.

Gao Lishi said: "Back to Your Majesty, it is a few princesses, who are frolicking when they see that it is snowing. ”

"It's snowing?"

Zhao Changqing hadn't seen the snow in Luoyang for a long time, and he was a little curious.

"Prime Minister, don't deal with government affairs yet, go out for a walk with me?"

Zhuge Liang responded with a smile: "Everything is according to Your Majesty's wishes." ”

In the whole of Luoyang, there was goose feather snow.

The snowflakes fell one by one, and in less than a moment, the entire Luoyang City was as if it was covered in silver.

Zhuge Liang and Zhao Changqing walked in a corridor in the palace.

The former looked at the snowfall in the sky and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it has not snowed so heavily in Luoyang for a long time, and the crops and fields near Luoyang will definitely have a bumper harvest in the future." ”

Zhao Changqing was also very satisfied with the snow, "After so many years of busyness, it is the first time that I have been so relaxed." ”

Just relax?

Zhuge Liang didn't know why the emperor felt like this.

But at this time, asking this kind of question is a bit embarrassing.

It's better to laugh.

"A few days ago, I went to Zilong's house for dinner, and I saw the little girl from Zilong's family, who is sixteen years old this year, and her face is beautiful and refined, this girl seems to be called Zhao Qingwen, let this girl be the princess of Chu, what do you think?"

Zhao Changqing told Zhuge Liang about his family affairs.

He replied with a smile: "It depends on the wishes of the King of Chu himself, Weichen seems to have heard that His Royal Highness the King of Chu seems to have no intention of marrying? ”

Zhao Changqing pointed at Zhuge Liang, who bowed his head slightly, and said with a smile: "I think the same way. Some time ago, Yan Song also suggested that I let the king of Chu marry the daughter of Emperor Song, and it would be good to marry, and regardless of the contradictions between the two countries, just talking about the relationship between the Song State and the Tang State, I couldn't take the humiliation on myself, so I scolded him fiercely, and Yan Song was frightened at that time, his expression was as funny as it was. ”

Listening to His Majesty's voice of talking and laughing, Zhuge Liang's mood was also suddenly brightened.

"This matter is so decided, and later I will discuss with Zilong, that little girl named Zhao Qingwen, I look at it and rejoice, like my eldest daughter, as a wife in the future, she will be very virtuous. ”

Zhao Changqing's desire to be a grandfather is already unstoppable.

Zhuge Liang echoed and smiled: "Zilong, this big old man, I didn't expect to give birth to such a daughter, it's not easy, haha." ”

"You, you, if Zilong hears this, it will inevitably drop you for a while. Zhao Changqing was almost happy when he saw Zhuge Liang's mood, so he said bluntly: "Your daughter, after this year, she will be sixteen years old, right? ”

Zhuge Liang, who was originally in a very happy mood, changed his whole face in an instant.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

He asked cautiously.

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "The prince is not too young, let your Zhuge family have a queen in the future, and when I am old in the future, I will still be able to ensure the wealth of your Zhuge family." ”

Zhuge Liang suddenly looked a little heartbroken.

"The little girl is still young"

Zhao Changqing didn't hear it, "Let Zhuge Linglong, this girl, come to the palace for a light meal tomorrow." ”

Zhuge Liang was silent.

He looked at the snow falling in the sky, a little overwhelmed.

It's white.

It's so clean.

From the bottom of his heart, Zhuge Liang was unwilling to tie the fate of the family to the royal family.

But it seems that there is no way to refuse this will.
