"Come three?"
Three more to come? Jiang Hongwen touched the cold sweat on his palms and waited patiently.
"Thirdly, the people of the Zhou Dynasty mainly engaged in farming, and there were few merchants. Farming could only provide food and clothing, and the circulation of commerce could make the country prosperous. If the emperor asks, King Shou can answer confidently."
"What's the answer?" Although Jiang Hongwen had already heard some clues, he still couldn't help but ask.
"As soon as low profits come out, those who have land will farm and those who have no land will do business, and the people's lives will get better and better. Who would think of rebelling? The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty will be rich and powerful, and the country will be prosperous for thousands of years."
Qingguan's voice was very soft, but in Jiang Hongwen's ears, it was like a thousand pieces of gold. He looked deeply at the woman in plain clothes and couldn't say a word.
"You have to discuss this matter with King Shou carefully. Yinzhen, let's go."
Jiang Hongwen didn't regain his composure until the tea in his hand became cold. For some reason, he felt his eyes were a little hot, and an inexplicable pride rose in his heart.
There seemed to be a road leading to the sky in front of him, which made him feel at ease and wanted to laugh three times.
"Come here, prepare your horses."
"Seventh Master?"
"Seventh Master wants to see the prince, immediately, immediately." Jiang Hongwen's voice seemed a little crazy.
"Miss, let's go back home." Yinzhen looked at the scorching sun outside and quickly held up an umbrella to cover the lady.
"There's no rush. Now that I'm out, I'll just go to the Su Mansion. All the money has been collected. I have to take care of the sick child."
Yinzhen said displeasedly: "Miss, running back and forth like this for a month has definitely exhausted your body."
"A doctor has the heart of a parent."
Since Qingguan lowered her eyes and agreed, she couldn't tolerate her fishing for three days and drying nets for two days.
At this time, Chen Ping stepped forward and said, "Miss, it's not too early or too late to go to the Su Mansion now. Why don't we find a clean shop outside and have some food before we talk."
Qingguan looked at the clock and said, "It's my wife's birthday tomorrow, so I can choose something for her. It's not in vain that she protected me in the past."
Chen Ping hurriedly stretched out his hand and said, "Miss, let me help you get into the car."
Qingguan took two steps and looked back: "Have you seen Master this morning?"
Chen Ping said: "I saw it. I went to the garden early in the morning. I didn't say hello to anyone I saw. My eyes were straight and my eyes were black. I don't know what I was thinking about?"
Qingguan's expression changed and she said, "Don't disturb him. Let him stay alone for a few days."
"Yes, miss."
Qingguan got into the car and leaned out half of his body, "By the way, are there any clues about the Gu family's affairs?"
Chen Ping said hurriedly: "Miss, this matter has been going on for three months. It won't happen so quickly. I'm afraid it will take a few days. Brothers have already gone to various pharmacies to inquire about it."
"Well, check carefully. Most drug stores have records of such things as tire slip medicine."
"Don't worry, miss."
In the imperial study room.
The palace maids placed the contents of the food boxes on the desks of the three princes one by one, including a bowl of clear porridge and two plates of side dishes.
Zhao Jingyan knelt on the ground and said with a playful smile: "My father is so hungry for this porridge. Counting the days, I haven't eaten it for several months."
Emperor Baoqing gave him a cold look and said, "Everyone, get up."
Zhao Jingyan chuckled, gave King Xian a deliberately provocative look, and then sat down in his seat.
The wise king had no expression on his face, walked around him, and sat down at the top.
"Drink porridge!" The emperor's voice was calm and soft.
Zhao Jingyan picked up the chopsticks, picked up the side dishes, and started using them, as if what she was eating was not bland and tasteless white porridge, but bird's nests, shark's fins, deer antlers, and duck feet.
The wise king frowned, his hands seemed to be worth a thousand pieces of gold. Which of his meals was not delicacies from mountains and seas, and when had he ever had such a meal
Emperor Baoqing raised his eyes slightly and saw the expressions of the two sons.
"Lao Ba, Historical Records, Chronicles of the Five Emperors, who are my descendants, what is next?"
Zhao Jingyan took a mouthful of porridge, stood up and said vaguely: "All my descendants should have a loving father and a filial son, respectful brothers, friends and brothers, a decent husband and an obedient wife, distinctions between the inside and outside, orderly growth and development, courtesy, justice and shame, and the cultivation of the four dimensions..."
As soon as he memorized it, the wise king pushed away the porridge bowl and knelt on the ground again, dripping with cold sweat.
Emperor Baoqing waved his hand to signal him to get up, and ordered Zhao Jingyan to sit down and continue eating porridge.
A wise king is sitting on pins and needles.
After the porridge was finished, Emperor Baoqing took a deep look at his two sons and walked away.
The surrounding palace people came out one after another, and only two kings were left in the spacious imperial study.
But after a moment, the two kings came out one after another, and the palace people stepped forward to clean up.
"how?"
Eunuch Li whispered: "Back to the emperor, the two kings left one after another. King Shou used all the porridge and side dishes. King Xian..."
"How is he?"
Eunuch Li was puzzled: "Wise King, I haven't used any of it."
Emperor Baoqing was speechless, with no expression on his yellowish face.
Eunuch Li was silent for a while, and then said: "When King Xian left, he took the initiative to help King Shou, and King Shou shook him off."
Emperor Baoqing raised his eyebrows and said: "The third child is quite obedient, but the eighth child is... so unseemly!"
Eunuch Li didn't dare to answer the call.
Emperor Baoqing stood up slowly and murmured to himself, his voice too low to be heard.
"Who do I entrust my country to? I am old."
Eunuch Li's heart trembled, and cold sweat broke out from his forehead.
From the time when he was an emperor or a prince, he had been serving around him. For decades, the emperor and servant had been together through ups and downs, and he had never heard the emperor say the word "old".
But now... Eunuch Li was silent for a long time before he said, "Your Majesty, the Queen has acted as matchmaker for King Shou."
"Oh?" Emperor Baoqing hesitated, "Which lady are you talking about?"
"Back to the emperor, the queen intends to tell Miss Mo from Zhenguo Palace to Prince Shou."
Emperor Baoqing looked back at him with deep eyes.
Eunuch Li felt like a chicken that had been stripped of its feathers. He had nowhere to go and was being looked at all over.
"Your Majesty, my lady's name is Qin Qianju."
Qin Qianju, Emperor Baoqing thought silently, seeming to have some impression that he had seen that child when he was a child, and suddenly he was about to kiss her.
"He is a good boy, but someone like Lao Ba..."
Eunuch Li said with a smile: "King Shou is smart and has the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix. The queen said he is worthy of him."
"snort!"
Emperor Baoqing sneered, "My prince, it is not enough to be matched with a girl from the Qin family, he has to be matched with a second one. He is so capable."
Eunuch Li was secretly horrified.
Emperor Baoqing's eyes moved, "How did you know about this?"
Eunuch Li knelt down with a plop and kowtowed: "I met King Shou ahead of me. King Shou took advantage of the time when no one was around to chat with me for a few words."
After hearing this, Emperor Baoqing said calmly: "It's not that stupid."
The words sounded like they were talking about him, and they also sounded like they were talking about King Shou. A thin layer of cold sweat formed on Eunuch Li's forehead.
"Get up and accompany me to sit in the Queen's Palace."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"I respectfully welcome your Majesty!" Queen Qin received the news and went to welcome him with a smile.
After the emperor recovered from his illness, he rarely walked around the harem, and his Yichun Palace was also extremely neglected. Counting the days, he didn't even see the emperor's face for half a month.
"Queen, there is no need to be polite!" Emperor Baoqing helped her into the inner room.
Sitting down, the queen looked at the emperor's expression, feeling slightly uneasy.
The emperor always hid his emotions very deeply. Even though they had been married for many years, he could never figure out what he was thinking.
Emperor Baoqing drank the ginseng tea and said, "I heard that the queen intends to be a matchmaker with King Shou?"
Empress Qin was suddenly startled, and said with a smile: "This child is getting older, and the position of the concubine is always vacant, so it is inevitable that he will make the royal family laugh. I am his mother and queen, so I should take care of this child." "
Emperor Baoqing nodded slightly, with no expression on his face.
Empress Qin smiled again and said: "My niece Qin Qianju is a virtuous and virtuous person. When she is about to get married, I want to connect these two children, and maybe a good thing can happen."
Emperor Baoqing said, "Lao Ba is not in good health, so the queen is not afraid of wronging niece Qin."
Empress Qin never thought that the emperor, who had always hidden himself so deeply, would speak out without even a trace of concealment. She quickly changed her face and said, "Why didn't I advise you? Who would have thought that this child had made up his mind and just said that he admired Shou." The king’s demeanor cannot be persuaded by anyone.”
"Oh?" Emperor Baoqing protracted, as if he didn't believe it.
"Girls are pregnant with each other. It's a good thing. I thought that since one of them is willing to beat me and the other is willing to endure it, why not show the beauty of adulthood."
Empress Qin smiled shyly and said: "I am not afraid of the emperor's jokes. When I was young, I was just like her. When I saw the emperor, it was hard to take it back. No matter if I was a concubine or a slave, I always wanted to serve the emperor. , I can’t listen to anything else.”
Emperor Baoqing was silent for a while, smiled, took Empress Qin's jade hand meaningfully, and patted it twice, his expression seemed a little moved by the empress' infatuation.
"It's hard for the queen to have such a bad intention!"
The couple had not been intimate for a long time. Empress Qin lowered her head shyly and said softly: "Your Majesty, this is the duty of a concubine."
"The word "duty" is the most rare and difficult to grasp. It doesn't matter whether it's one less or more."
Queen Qin raised her head suddenly, with fear in her eyes.
Emperor Baoqing didn't look at her, but let go of her hand, stood up and said, "I still have something to do. I'll see the queen when I have time!"
Empress Qin quickly gathered her thoughts and said: "I send you to the Emperor respectfully!"
Emperor Baoqing turned around and took a deep look at the queen, then left with his hands behind his back.
"Empress!"
The bright yellow figure disappeared from her eyes, and Queen Qin swayed. Qiu Ju and Jingxue hurriedly supported her from left to right.
Empress Qin felt sad in her heart.
They are obviously a couple who sleep in the same bed, but why do they look like an opponent holding a spear and a shield
In August, the flow of fire gradually weakened.
In central Beijing, the most lively one is the West Market of Beijing, where there are many shops and everything you need.
At the wide entrance hall of Deyue Tower, a black carriage stopped slowly. Chen Ping jumped off the horse and said, "Miss, we're here."
The car curtain was opened, and the woman in plain clothes was helped down. She took a look with her black and white eyes, "Just eat here, just find a clean table."
"Miss, why don't you book a private room, something fresher and more elegant." Yinzhen was afraid that the guests in the restaurant would disturb the lady's tranquility.
"No, just use some as you like and leave after you're done."
A sharp-eyed guy came up to us and introduced us.
"Brother, find an inconspicuous table and serve your signature dishes with four dishes and one soup." Yinzhen spoke crisply. After a while, the wine and food were served, and the master and servants of Qingguan were eating, but they heard someone outside say: "The prince is here, please come inside, the prince is waiting in the private room upstairs -"
