As if he was used to her slick tongue, Qin Yan just glanced at her indifferently, and then looked at the notebook on the table. The latter had been diligently ink-inking there. Obviously, he did not expect this person to be so easy I let myself go, but it is also possible that I am too busy and don't have time to bother with her.
Looking at the mountain of booklets, Liu Yin felt dizzy. Every day, batches of these were sent over, no wonder the other party was so busy that he couldn't see anyone.
She didn't bother him anymore, Liu Yin lay on the table, raised her hand and rubbed the ink in a steady manner, and looked at the man in front of her with complicated eyes. In the past, she would never dare to think about being able to sit with him In the study, but now she is not happy, but a little uncomfortable. She doesn't know how he persisted in dealing with political affairs like this every day, and he has to bear so many responsibilities, but he can't even talk about hard work.
Xu Shi noticed the strange eyes, Qin Yan tilted his head slightly, "What are you looking at?"
Blinking, Liu Yin twirled the ink stick with one hand, and said softly: "I just feel so pitiful to be the emperor, I am so busy every day, as long as I think of you being like this every day, I... I will..."
She couldn't help her nose sore as she said that, if she could, she would rather the other party not be the emperor, than to be so busy every day that her body would be exhausted sooner or later.
Looking at that little face full of unbearable, Qin Yan only felt his brows twitch, and then gradually the corners of his lips rose slightly, and he raised his hand to touch her head, "As long as you let me save myself, I can relax more than half."
Since he entered politics, he has come here almost every day, and he has long been used to it, but this little girl is always a headache.
"How can I not let you worry, he is very obedient, so he knows he has wronged him." Liu Yin curled her lips and turned her head away from looking at this person.
For some reason, she suddenly looked at the official document on the table and said, "When I give birth to the prince, my cousin won't be so busy."
In the past, Liu Yin didn't have much obsession with having boys and girls, but at this moment, she only wanted to give birth to a boy, because in this way, she could share the responsibility for him.
Hearing the soft voice, Qin Yan's gaze paused, and he annotated the official document on the table, his voice was calm, "Are you trying to make the prince stand up?"
Looking intently at the sharp outline in front of her eyes, she said softly: "In my heart, there is only one brother prince."
The tip of the pen paused slightly, until the ink stained all the official documents, Qin Yan casually put the notebook aside, but the cold eyebrows gradually softened a lot.
Grinding his hands sorely, Liu Yin gradually dozed off, and he couldn't remember when he fell asleep. When he woke up, he was already on the soft couch in the imperial study room, the candlelight was dim, and the person at the desk was still grading papers. Compared to the afternoon, there were significantly fewer official documents on the table.
But the other party didn't continue, but took her to have dinner together. Only after seeing what he was doing every day, Liu Yin knew how difficult it was for the other party to take time out to accompany her every day.
Although she heard a lot of news about sending troops, she didn't say anything about it. Even though the queen mother came to inquire about her elder brother's news from time to time, Liu Yin didn't say anything. Even though she didn't know what Qin Yan was going to do, she knew that she couldn't destroy him. plan.
The drizzle of early spring was pattering down, carrying the chill that had not yet left. Even though the fighting in the southwest was fierce, good news came from the border. Most of the Turkic troops were repelled for dozens of miles. I don't know what method Zhang Mo used, not only defeated the Turkic main force, but also severely injured the Turkic Khan. Now the opponent is retreating steadily and has retreated to his base camp.
There was a piece of good news, and others followed, until there was a sudden news from the front that Zhennan King's soldiers and horses were besieged in Yizhou, and it was her elder brother who led the troops to reconcile with Zhou Kingdom. The news started to spread wildly.
The price of Zhou State's peace is that it will become a subsidiary state of Jin State from now on, and it will have to pay tribute every year, and it will have to divide the coastal areas for them, and the domestic garrison will never exceed 100,000.
This is indeed a tempting condition for peace, but Zhou Kingdom has no other choice but to do so. They have a deadly feud with Dong Kingdom, and it is absolutely impossible to seek peace. If they do not want to be annexed by the two countries, the only way is to rely on them to Jin country, at least it can preserve the fundamentals.
This peace treaty was obviously signed long ago, and her elder brother's injury was only shown to King Zhennan, making them think that there was no troops on the front line to come to support them, so when the other party took it lightly, her elder brother would be able to lead the troops back and beat them by surprise .
Of course, these are just Liu Yin's guesses. The information he has received so far is that his elder brother is confronting the troops of Zhennan King in Yizhou, and the specific situation is not yet known. But in this way, her parents must finally feel at ease.
Golden Temple.
Everyone in the morning court was all happy and admonishing. After changing the downturn in the past, they obviously didn't expect that the emperor would stay behind. It is to lure the enemy to go deep and come out to outflank. This Southwest turmoil will definitely be recorded in the annals of history.
"Qizou Emperor, from the humble minister's point of view, we don't need to give the rebels a chance to breathe, and just press in with the army. Anyway, Yizhou is surrounded by our troops, but if we give the rebels a chance to breathe, the situation may change. .”
The speaker was the Minister of the Ministry of War. With his temperament, he should act swiftly and resolutely to beat the rebels. He was caught off guard, but obviously someone disagreed with his statement, and Prime Minister Lu quickly stood up, "Return to the emperor, although Mr. Yu is justified, but The terrain in Yizhou is complex, easy to defend but difficult to attack, I think we can plan in the long run."
After saying that, Liu Guozheng snorted immediately, "Prime Minister Lu said it lightly, every day of procrastination will waste a day's food and grass, do you want to make up for this money?"
"Master Liu, what are you talking about? I'm also thinking about the overall situation. Blindly attacking will only cause many casualties. Can Master Liu ignore the lives of those soldiers?" Prime Minister Lu immediately retorted.
In an instant, the palace was divided into three factions, which was the same almost every time they went to court, but this time the neutral faction was the most, and after a long time of quarreling, both sides insisted on their own opinions.
The people on the dragon chair swept their eyes, and suddenly their thin lips parted slightly: "Enough of the noise?"
The light voice made the entire Golden Luan Hall silent, and everyone lowered their heads and dared not speak any more.
Looking at the people with different thoughts below, Qin Yan's expression remained unchanged, and his voice was low, "I have my own opinion on this matter, and you can just do your own thing."
When the words fell, everyone quickly said yes, and of course they also knew that the emperor did not trust them, just like the reconciliation with Zhou Guo, it can be seen that they reconciled with each other quietly, and they even caught Zhennan Wang by surprise. But they can't say anything, their emperor has always had his own plans, and he only informed them afterwards, and of course they dare not have any thoughts.
All of a sudden, a group of people started talking about other things, and no one knew who suddenly brought up the draft. The blushing and thick-necked group of people who had been arguing just now stood on the same front again and spoke together.
"Your Majesty, now that the period of filial piety for the previous emperor has passed, and it is early spring again, it is a good time for the general election. I think that after the war subsides, the harem will be filled to relieve the empress's worries."
One person spoke, and then another person echoed, "If the emperor thinks that the general election will waste the people and money, it is okay to have a small election first. Otherwise, there will always be only the empress in the harem. This is probably... not in line with the rules set by the ancestors."
Liu Guozheng stood there without saying a word, and it was hard to see what he was thinking, but the others quickly echoed each other. On the issue of the draft, everyone has the same position.
Listening to the remonstrance below, Qin Yan frowned slightly, and dropped an official document casually, the sound of "pop" scared everyone into silence, and he didn't know where he offended the emperor.
The huge Golden Luan Hall was so quiet for a moment that everyone's breathing was so clear, and the atmosphere gradually became subdued. Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to breathe.
"I don't want to hear about the draft again in the future." Qin Yan's eyes turned cold, and his voice was oppressive, "If anyone mentions it again, the three clans will never be allowed to participate in the imperial examination."
After the words fell, everyone took a breath, and their faces changed drastically. They all looked at each other, and they all saw a touch of shock on the other side.
But there was still a brave man who stood up, "But now there is only the empress in the palace..."
"The queen is my first wife and she is pregnant with children. It is reasonable and reasonable that I should not disappoint her, so there will be no more drafts from now on." Qin Yan's voice was cold.
Hearing that, the entire hall was stunned, perhaps because of the impact they had received, and they couldn't recover for a while. They all thought that the emperor's reluctance to draft was just for the sake of filial piety. After all, the filial piety of the previous emperor has not passed. She was just doting on the empress, and she was pregnant with a dragon descendant anyway, but she didn't expect the emperor to want to never draft for the sake of the empress!
How can there be such a thing in the past and present, no matter how much you love the empress, you have to choose a talent show, even ordinary people have three wives and four concubines, let alone the emperor, but their emperor actually does not want other concubines for the empress? !
Is this going to abolish the harem? ! !
Must be crazy! ! !
Liu Guozheng was also stunned there for a long time unable to recover. Like everyone else, he only thought that the emperor was just doting on his daughter at first. After all, there is no emperor without a three thousand beauties, but up to this moment, he was no less shocked than anyone else. , I even held my breath, wondering if I heard it wrong.
Everyone can see who the emperor is, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is not close to women, but now he is so obsessed with a woman that he wants to abolish the harem!
Prime Minister Lu also frowned and didn't make a sound, but just clenched his palms tightly. He never knew that the little girl from the Liu family was so powerful that he could fascinate the emperor like this. As a result, his Liu family will not rule the court in the future.
After the shock, some censors immediately knelt down on the ground, "Your Majesty, absolutely not, how does this conform to the rules established by the ancestors?"
"I'm talking about the rules."
His voice sank, his eyes were slightly cold, and he was all dumb at critical moments, but now everyone has something to say.
In an instant, everyone's eyes changed again, and no one dared to speak out for a while, and they didn't know what ecstasy drug the empress had given the emperor to make the emperor become like this.
"How can such a demon queen be the mother of a country!"
The person who spoke was a staid old censor, who usually regarded those rules as his life, and a group of people began to admire him again.
Hearing this, it was Liu Guozheng who suddenly stood up, glared at the other party with displeasure, and said, "Master Tong, what is the meaning of this, my Liu family has been loyal to the king for the country, and the empress and empress also serve the emperor with all her heart and even have a dragon descendant, why? In your eyes, you are the demon queen, if you say something carelessly, don't blame the old man for being rude!"
