[Sui and Tang Dynasties] Wise husbands emerge from under the whip

The small pavilion in the garden is surrounded by green grass, and light blue wild flowers bloom everywhere in the grass. Even if it is not as magnificent as the peonies carefully cultivated by the servants in the garden, it is unique in its freshness and elegance.In the nearby pool, the wheels of the waterwheel are turning to stir up the water. The sound of the water is gurgling, and the trickle brings the petals blown by the wind to the water surface, leading from the waterwheel to the pavilion.

A fair white hand gently twisted the petals, and carefully put it into the sand pot where the water was being boiled.The gold bracelet on Hao's wrist accidentally touched the sand pot and made a dull sound. The man stared at the bracelet for a long time, and then turned his gaze to the woman's face.

At this moment, he was in a state of indescribable feeling, useless and uneasy, but when he saw the bracelet, he let go of his worries a little bit but was still very uneasy, and carefully observed the woman's emotional reaction, so as to respond accordingly.

After Liang Shiyan and Yu Wenxin went back yesterday, he didn't tell Ke Jing why they came. First, the suggestion of the two of them shocked him so much that he didn't sleep all night; second, he was afraid that she would find out. This may not be beneficial afterwards, subconsciously it was to protect her as the starting point, and to be honest, he was moved for a moment, even if it was just a fleeting idea.

moved, and at the same time he despises himself for having such a shameful thought.Although Liang Shiyan's suggestion was only to force Yang Jian to abdicate explicitly, but he was his biological father, how could he do such absurd things as a son?But for a man with ambition in his heart, power is still extremely attractive.

It's not that he doesn't have ambitions, it's just that he has been suppressed a lot and there is not much left, but as long as there is a little hope, it can be ignited immediately like dry wood meeting a raging fire.This is what he knows very well, and he is also afraid of it, because ambition is severely suppressed, and there are often two endings that cannot escape: destruction and resurgence.

He will not deceive himself and others that he has no ambitions, whether he was in decline before or hidden now, he still has them after all, but he will not go to the point of denying his relatives and using unscrupulous means to satisfy his ambitions and power.

Therefore, when the idea of ​​"Actually, Liang Shiyan's suggestion is not impossible, he was frightened by the dark side of his heart.That being the case, let alone tell his wife?She is so upright, she will only feel that he is shameless.Because of this, he chose to be silent, to avoid, but once he did so, he felt depressed in his heart, as if a big stone was blocked, unable to move away, and blocked in a panic.

The first concealment since reconciling with her was so maddening. He clearly told himself not to let her know, but she didn't ask, but the next day, he still consciously told the matter.But she didn't say any words, and she made tea in a good mood, so he didn't know what to do next.

Yang Yong felt that he was very useless at the moment, and the mood of not being up or down and trembling was really uncomfortable. If he had known about it, he would not have come to talk about it.Why tell her!

Yes, why did you tell her all these things?Yang Yong frowned and fell into thought.Come to think of it, whether it was helping the poor affected by the drought last year, or the governance of the state, after a long time, he has become a partner with her unconsciously, and every time the plan coincides with each other, he is incomparable. I am delighted, so as long as there is something that can be discussed, he will use it to talk to Ke Jing.

Did he believe in the bottom of his heart that she was the one who could stand at the same height as him and face life with a smile, not just a husband and wife, but also a confidant who could understand a little bit and give him more pertinent advice.

It seemed that he began to understand the reason why he took the initiative to tell her, but... this was his idea, not necessarily how she saw it. To put it bluntly, it was just his expectation of her, expecting her to understand him, it was just wishful thinking.

Thinking about it now, Yang Yong felt his head hurt again, like a needle prick.

"Your Highness, the tea is ready." Ke Jing picked up the teacup and handed it to Yang Yong, "This is scented tea, but if you say it can be used for fire."

Quhuoquhuo, obviously just satirizing him!

Yang Yong became even more angry, and said "I'm not thirsty" with a stern face, and turned away from looking at Ke Jing.

Useless!Tell you to depend on her, tell you to depend on her!Was it a joke?You deserve to be seen as a joke!

"Your Highness knows that for a person who knows how to taste tea, to make a good cup of tea, it takes a lot of energy just to boil the water, not to mention the whole process of making tea. It’s about using the best and putting the most effort into it.”

Yang Yong muttered: It's none of my business, I'm not a tea drinker.

"The water for making tea should be boiled with the morning dew, and the petals should be made of flower buds with no defects and uniform color. The water should not be boiled, otherwise the original flavor of the dew will be destroyed, so you must watch carefully when boiling the water."

"As long as one of the links goes wrong, a good cup of tea cannot be brewed, so that's why the person who makes the tea has to personally examine every link and even complete it independently."

"And diners don't see the complexity of the tea making process when tasting tea. To him, there is only the difference between good and bad. If it tastes good, it judges how well-intentioned the person who made the tea is. If it tastes bad, it thinks that the tea maker The casualness of the person who makes the tea is regarded as a failure, and the end of the tea maker may be to be kicked out by the shopkeeper."

Yang Yong turned his head and looked up at Ke Jing.

He thought he understood why she said this.Indeed, Liang Shiyan and Yu Wenxin came to invite him after they had a plan, and only they knew the mystery, and he just got the final plan.

To put it bluntly, he didn't know anything, so he participated in such a reckless way. If he won, it would make sense, but if he lost?There is a great possibility that he became the culprit.

Who called him the prince?People in the world will think that he is a beast who killed his brother and father in order to ascend the throne as soon as possible.

"A Yuan..." What should he say?I thought she was pretending to be stupid, and the matter had nothing to do with her, but in fact, she had already understood it better than him.

If you have a wife like this, what can your husband ask for?

"Your Highness, if you don't drink it, the tea won't taste so good."

The cold tone was like a basin of bone-piercing cold water pouring down from his head, washing away all the emotion and joy in his heart.Originally, he wanted to hug her so much, but now he has no such urge at all.

Only she can completely destroy the beautiful atmosphere, leaving people in embarrassment.But... that is his wife, smart and capable, but also has a sharp mouth and a bean curd heart, and he is willing to be eaten to death by her, and he has a lot of fun.

He giggled, took the teacup in her hand and put it on the table, then walked around the stone table and pulled her into his arms.

The heart calmed down instantly, maybe this is what it meant when the dust settled.

The sudden hug made Ke Jing temporarily dazed, and after a little struggle, she stopped struggling when she heard Yang Yong's begging voice asking him to hug her.

In fact, she was angry that he was hiding something from her, and even though she expected him to tell it, and he did, she still couldn't sleep for a whole night.

Holding her arms tighter, Yang Yong smelled the fragrance of her hair, sighed and said, "Fortunately, you are here."

Fortunately, you are here, so that I will not deviate from the route and go astray.

Fortunately, you are here, so I can have the courage to move on.

Luckily you're here……

Three days later, the study in the Eastern Palace.

Liang Shiyan looked at the woman who had been practicing calligraphy since he came in, and began to fidget a little.

He had been here for almost half an hour, and it was the Crown Princess instead of the Crown Prince who invited him. Although he didn't know why she invited him here, since it was the invitation of the Crown Princess, he also came.Then the first person he saw was the crown prince Yang Yong. He thought in a daze that maybe the crown prince just wanted to avoid people's eyes and ears, so he invited him in the name of the crown princess, that is to say, it was the crown prince who really invited him.

He was also extremely excited when he thought that Yang Yong would tell him that his decision was only half possible.Seeing that Yang Yong only called him instead of Yu Wenxin, he was even more excited.

However, after he came in, he realized that he had thought too well. It turned out that it wasn't just Yang Yong and him, but also the princess.

Then, the crown princess who looked like a queen didn't raise her head, just said "Your Excellency, please do what you want", and didn't speak again, and then concentrated on practicing her calligraphy, while the crown prince helped her grind it, and gave pointers from time to time. some.

Liang Shiyan looked at the beam above his head: Where did the trouble come from?

"Ahem..." As a last resort, Liang Shiyan had to cough to attract the attention of those two.

"Ah! Master Liang, so you are still here." Ke Jing was slightly surprised.

Liang Shiyan's face turned green.What do you mean he is still there?Dare they jointly call him just to let him watch their love show?He doesn't have that much time, okay?

Seeing Liang Shiyan's constipated ugly face, and Ke Jing's expressionless or even innocent face, Yang Yong pursed his lips and lowered his head to laugh: Do you want to be so disrespectful to the other party?Anyway, he is also Master Shang Guozhu!It's a big deal!

"Husband, I'm tired and hungry, why don't we go to the pavilion with Master Liang to have some snacks and enjoy the flowers."

Yang Yong pretended to be serious, nodded and said: "Alright, you can go first, I still have some things to deal with, and I will be there soon."

After handing over Liang Shiyan to Kejing for temporary reception, Yang Yong left the study.In this way, Liang Shiyan half reluctantly and half unwillingly accompanied Ke Jing to the pavilion.

The maid brought tea and snacks. It has to be said that the surrounding area of ​​the pavilion is a very unique place. Whether it is a place to relax or discuss issues, it is a clean and beautiful place.

Liang Shiyan was attracted by the rotating water wheel, such a thing is rare in Daye City, and it is really rare for him who has been in a high position for many years, but when the maid said proudly that she was the princess Liang Shiyan was even more astonished when he asked the carpenter to draw the picture.

Don't look at the waterwheel as a very simple thing. In fact, every part has to go through the most precise calculations. If there are few mistakes, the waterwheel will become a pile of useless waste, at most it will be used as firewood.Moreover, waterwheels are generally large and used to water crops, but this small waterwheel in front of you... You know, the smaller the waterwheel, the more difficult it is to make, and there must be no deviation.And the waterwheel in front of him is obviously not completed recently, the key is that it was made by a woman.

"My lord, do you think there is anything special about this waterwheel?" Seeing him staring at the waterwheel intently, Ke Jing asked with a smile.

"Ingenious workmanship." Liang Shiyan expressed his emotion from the bottom of his heart.Such a small waterwheel, such an exquisite waterwheel, is enough to show how much effort was spent.

Ke Jing smiled, "Thanks to the praise of the adults, to be honest, there is also the cooperation of the carpenter. Although I also do surveillance work, I am still a layman in terms of workmanship. If the carpenter wants to do something, I can't do it." If you notice it, maybe you can’t now, and you will know where the problem is after a while. But at the beginning, especially when you first use it, you won’t be able to notice it.”

"And by the time the problem is revealed, it's too late."

Liang Shiyan looked at Kejing quietly, waiting for her next words.

As far as the painting of the waterwheel is concerned, the woman opposite is by no means an ordinary person. She can make Prince Yang Yong obedient without amazing beauty, which is enough to show that it is impossible to do without a little bit of excellence.

"Master Liang, I respect you for being an upright and courageous man, and I know how sad your current situation makes you. It's just that a straightforward person like you, even if you think that the plan is safe, will not know that you are being killed. If you can trust me where you have moved a little bit, just listen to me."

Liang Shiyan pretended to be calm after flashing his unnatural face quickly: "I don't understand what your empress means."

"I don't understand, do you really not understand?"

Distracted by her tone, Liang Shiyan pulled the hand resting on his knee under the table into a fist.

"I thought that the heart of an adult is like a mirror, and no matter what you do, you will never lie to your heart. It seems..." Ke Jing paused, and then continued, "In this case, let me make it more clear. If my lord If you can listen, you can listen. If you can’t listen, I can’t do anything. What an adult does is so important. If there is a slight mistake, it will affect the whole body and cause the whole game to be lost. What’s more, do you think everyone is trustworthy? "

"Click to appreciate your talent. You also know that His Royal Highness is in the same situation as you. Do you know how His Highness handles it?" Seeing him shaking his head, Ke Jing explained, "If you are a teacher, you will be equal to him for thousands of years. between."
