With the external worries resolved and internal troubles resolved, the next task is to enhance national strength.

Half of the number of ministers in the DPRK and China has been reduced, and few of the remaining ministers are worthy of great positions.

Xie Chengjin opened the Enke and held the imperial examination in advance.

Because there is a shortage of civil and military generals, two civil and military scientific examinations were held at the same time.

This time the scientific examination is different from previous years, there are not so many procedures, as long as the students are willing, they can come to the capital directly for the examination, and the content of the examination is not those clichés, but the papers compiled according to the facts.

As for generals, they first need excellent skills, and then they need brains.If a general has only bravery but no wisdom, he can only become a warrior who charges forward, but cannot become an excellent general.

After Xie Chengjin came back, Lu Zhiyunteng started to accompany Mu Siyu on a tour of the mountains and rivers, and learned about the national conditions of Fenglin Kingdom by the way.

When Xie Chengjin opened Enke, Mu Siyu was ready to return to China.

Of course Lu Zhiyun was very reluctant, but she also understood that Mu Siyu had already stayed in Fenglinguo for a long time in order to help her, if he didn't go back, his father would soon become a boudoir and resentful husband.

The literary and military examinations lasted for half a month, after which a large number of officials came into being.

Xie Chengjin attached great importance to these officials and arranged them in various positions. Some civil servants and military officers were even assigned to serve in the newly allocated cities.After all, the good country has been conquered, and the mess left by the good country has to be cleaned up, otherwise the common people will live in dire straits, then what he does is no different from Fan Yan.

Before Mu Siyu was about to return to China, Xie Chengjin held a family banquet, and the two families had a good reunion.

Talking about what happened in these years, Xie Chengjin was filled with emotion, and solemnly thanked Mu Siyu and Lu Zhiqing.

"Brother-in-law, although I am not as good as the second sister, I have taken care of Yi'er, so why don't you thank me?" Lu Shaojing said.

Shangguan Mingxia laughed: "Of course I want to thank you. Yi'er likes little uncle the most, and even has to hold his hand when eating. If you leave, Yi'er will be the first to get used to it."

Xie Chengyi looked at the crowd, her gaze stayed on Lu Shaojing's body, and she leaned over to kiss him on the cheek.

With a bang, the saliva was drawn.

Lu Shaojing wiped his cheeks in disgust: "I think you just regard me as something delicious."

Xie Chengjin smiled and said, "Shaojing is also this old."

Half a month later, Mu Siyu left Fenglinguo with her two children, Song Hanzhi and others.

Lu Zhiyun looked at Mu Siyu who was going away, her eyes were red.

"I've been considering whether to move the capital." Xie Chengjin put his arms around Lu Zhiyun's shoulders, "If we move the capital, maybe we can be closer to Huiguo, so that it will be convenient for you to go home and have a look."

"Civil and military officials will say that you are stupid, and you are being led by the nose by a woman. Then they may call me a disaster." Lu Zhiyun said, "As long as I have the heart, I will go back no matter how far away. After I am busy with this For a while, I'll take Yi'er to see my father and my elder brother, don't worry about it now."

A few months later, Mu Siyu arrived in Sanlin City on the Lu family's boat.

As soon as she arrived in Sanlin City, Mu Siyu ordered Kite to unload the goods from the boat, and then sold them to various shops.

What she brought back were all Fenglin country's special products, which were not available in other countries.

Kite smiled and said, "Master, you still don't forget to do business when you go out to visit relatives!"

"If you don't make money, is that my style? No matter where we are, we have to focus on business opportunities. I went out to visit a relative and made a business by the way. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"

Mu Siyu stayed in Sanlin City for half a month, spending a lot of manpower and material resources every day to deal with the backlog of problems.Before she could rush to the capital, Lu Yi brought his team to Sanlin City to look for her.

"Father..." Lu Zhiqing rushed towards Lu Yi.

Lu Yi quickly stabilized her figure: "It's so big, it's still hairy."

"Father, we haven't seen each other for more than a year, don't you miss me?"

Strictly speaking, it should be more than two years.

The journey back and forth took seven or eight months, and she stayed with Lu Zhiyun for more than a year in Fenglinguo, so Lu Zhiqing hadn't seen Lu Yi for more than two years.

Lu Yi looked around.

"Father, mother is negotiating business with a businessman from another place, and she is not here now." Lu Shaojing said beside him.

"Come and let Dad see."

When Lu Yi saw the two little ones, he had a sense of reality that they had finally returned.

Lu Zhiqing told Lu Yi what happened these days.See how excited she is when she speaks, and the more she speaks, the more excited she becomes, and you can tell how happy she is.

Lu Yi had already known about what they experienced in Fenglinguo from the informant, but he still found it very interesting to hear the details from Lu Zhiqing.Especially those dangerous scenes were narrated from Lu Zhiqing's mouth, as if her narrow escape was fake, and it was only true if she was so wise and brave enough to make the correct judgment and complete the tasks time and time again.

"I have met the Regent." Song Hanzhi saluted Lu Yi.

"You've grown taller, kid." Lu Yi looked at Song Hanzhi with admiring eyes.

His eyes stayed on Qin Motong beside him.

Qin Motong greeted him with a salute.

"This is Mo Tong, a friend we met on the road." Lu Zhiqing said, "Father, is there anything interesting in the capital recently? I won't go to the Imperial College to study again after I go back, right? Ah, I don't want to study."

"You are not here, the capital is not so noisy, but it is a rare harmony." Lu Yi said, "You monkey back to the capital, I am afraid that you will disturb the spring water again."

Mu Siyu returned to the other courtyard after talking about business, and asked the housekeeper of the other courtyard: "Where are the second young lady and the second young master?"

"Second Young Master and Second Miss are playing in the backyard."

Mu Siyu nodded and went to the backyard.

Before entering the yard, I heard a laughing voice from inside, and said with a smile: "I'm fine today, why don't I take you out to eat delicious food? There is a new restaurant in Sanlin City, let's go and taste it."

"I wonder if there is a place for me?" Lu Yi walked out of the room.

Mu Siyu looked at him in surprise: "Why are you here?"

Lu Yi stretched out his arms and made a hugging motion.

If she was young, Mu Siyu would have rushed over.

However, she also wanted to look old now, and she blushed when she saw this, and said angrily: "How old is she, how dare you flirt in front of your child?"

"Mother, we can't see." Lu Zhiqing said seriously, "Go and hug Dad! He hasn't seen you for more than two years, and he rushed from the capital to Sanlin City just to see you sooner."

Lu Shaojing pulled Lu Zhiqing away.

Lu Zhiqing tugged Song Hanzhi again.

After the few people left, Qin Motong was dumbfounded for a moment, and hurriedly caught up with them: "Wait for me."

After the children left, Mu Siyu stopped carrying them and rushed towards Lu Yi.

Lu Yi caught her and said, "You lost weight again."

She was hanging on his body, and the weight change was too obvious.

"How did you come?"

"Xiao Qing'er knows that I want to come to see you soon, but you still ask me why I came here." Lu Yi patted her buttocks, "Little heartless, always running around, every time I run, I have to walk a little bit." Two years. How many two or three years are there in our life? You spend all your time in other places, and your husband doesn’t care? You can rest assured that once you go for two or three years, you won’t be afraid to wait until you come back. There are three or five concubines."

"If the regent wants to take a concubine, let alone three or five, thirty or fifty is fine. Since ancient times, women have never had the right to decide whether a man takes a concubine. If you want to take a concubine, I will Even if you are tied up every day, you still have to accept it! If you don't have that kind of thought, I don't have to look at you, and you won't do anything to hurt our relationship."

"I haven't seen anyone for two or three years, and you still say it won't hurt the relationship between husband and wife?"

"Listen to what you're talking about here. Did the regent say it? I don't know, but I thought it was a resentful husband from a boudoir." Mu Siyu kissed him on the cheek, "Are you in a better mood now? "

"No." Lu Yi hugged her and walked inside, "If you want to make your husband feel better, it depends on how you behave."

The affairs of Sanlin City were quickly finished.Lu Yi walked around Sanlin City with his wife and children, and then returned to the capital leisurely.

As soon as he returned to the capital, Lu Yi was passed into the palace again.

As soon as Mu Siyu arrived home, Su Zhiliu, Mrs. Jia and other good friends came to visit.

Mu Siyu had already prepared presents and just delivered them to them.

Su Zhiliu and Mrs. Jia mentioned Lu Zhiyun and asked her about the situation there.After all, not everyone is in the mansion like Lu Yi, but everything outside is under his supervision.

"Time flies so fast." Mrs. Jia said, "the first time I saw Xiao Yun'er, she was still such a small one, soft and weak, looking like a delicate little fairy. Now she is a mother Now, you are also a grandmother."

"You are also a grandmother." Su Zhiliu said, "Didn't Linglong give you another granddaughter?"

Mrs. Jia sighed: "Yes!"

"What's the matter?" Mu Siyu said, "It's such a good thing, why are you still sighing?"

"The man Linglong married is not bad, but his old mother is a bit shameless." Su Zhiliu said, "You haven't been in the capital for the past two years. I don't know that Linglong has been tortured by her."

"Linglong gave birth to a daughter again, and her mother-in-law treats her with eyebrows not eyebrows, and eyes not eyes." Mrs. Jia said, "I really want to say a few words for her, to see how honest my son-in-law is, but I don't want to destroy their relationship."

"It's simple." Mu Siyu said, "I just came back, so I must invite everyone to have an afternoon tea. Tomorrow you call their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and I'll help you give her a good beating."

"Isn't this too troublesome for you? You are exhausted, you should rest earlier, I shouldn't trouble you with these things."

"Do we still need to be so polite between us sisters? If you want Linglong to suffer less, you have to suppress that old woman. If you can't suppress her, let her be a monster, and there is no time to regret what happens in the future!"

After discussing the details, Mrs. Jia agreed.

Su Zhiliu pulled the corner of Ramusyu's clothes and said, "You just came back, and you don't know that something big happened in the capital."

"What's the big deal?"

"Master Qi Xiaoqi, do you know?"

Mu Siyu laughed: "I don't have amnesia."

"Master Qi Xiaoqi has a fiancée who is married with his fingertips, and now that fiancée is holding a token to ask him to fulfill his promise." Su Zhiliu said, "Master Qi will definitely not agree. Guess what? That girl is also a fiery woman, directly Lived in Master Qi's mansion. In order to avoid that girl, Master Qi has not returned to his residence for half a month, and lives at the Ministry of War every day."

"I didn't come back, so many interesting things happened in the capital! Lord Qi's fiancée... what is that like? With Lord Qi's appearance, his fiancée can't be too bad, right?" Mu Siyu said, " Of course, I just said it casually. After all, it is difficult for ordinary women to look like Master Qi, so it makes sense that Mrs. Qi's position has been vacant."

"How should I put it..." Su Zhiliu laughed, "Rough."

"A girl uses the word rough..." Mu Siyu said, "I didn't expect you to be quite poisonous."

"That girl is a military commander, but her family has fallen, so she grew up in the countryside." Su Zhiliu said, "Before you came to the capital, many people said you were a country woman. But after you appeared , the knowledge you have shown is beyond the reach of their famous families. But this time, this girl is really from the countryside, and she is also a standard country woman. In short, it is impossible for Mr. Qi The marriage contract is fulfilled, but the other party does have a token, and he wants to refuse the marriage but has no choice but to hide."

"I suddenly want to know what kind of woman is the woman who can give Lord Qi such a headache."

"Princess..." the butler walked in and said to Mu Siyu, "There is a girl named Zhu at the door who wants to see you."

"That girl's surname is Zhu." Su Zhiliu said, "Could it be that Lord Qi Xiao's fiancée?"

"Impossible? She came to see me as soon as I returned to the capital, why?" Mu Siyu said.

"The girl said she wanted to ask the Princess Regent to be the master for her." The steward continued, "Princess, how do you think about that girl?"

"Please come in."

The butler quickly brought the woman in.

Mu Siyu looked at the woman curiously.

The woman is not very old, but the traces on her face can be seen that she has gone through a lot of hardships, and she is indeed not a pampered lady.

She made a particularly awkward salute, and said: "Princess Regent, I heard that you are the most honorable woman in the capital, and you took the liberty to disturb me today, just to ask the concubine to be my master and let my fiancé marry me."

Mu Siyu: "..."

The most honorable woman in the capital is the empress.

Besides, how could she let a minister marry her as the princess regent?She is not in charge of marriage.

"Why did you suddenly think of coming to me?" Mu Siyu said, "Master Qi is not a low-ranking official. How can I, a woman, manage his affairs? Girl, I'm afraid your trip today will be in vain."
