Peach Blossom Song

The king of Han had a simple heart, and the emperor considered her and entrusted her with a heavy responsibility. She made up her mind that she would do her best to appease the people so that the people in the two counties would be stable again.

It's just that although she has this intention, she has no idea how to appease Li Shu.Fortunately, His Majesty ordered Lu Shangshu to go with her, so she should ask him for advice as a good student.

The king of Han thought a lot at once.

Lu Shangshu invited her to go to his mansion for a talk in the afternoon, it was still early in the morning, so there was no need to worry, the King of Han came to the side of the princess again.The princess is well-informed, maybe she also knows how to appease the people.

The king of Han was about to ask, but he didn't know what to say, thinking of the people in those two counties being exploited by the government, and I don't know how miserable it was.King Han was born in the capital and grew up in the capital. From childhood to adulthood, everything he saw was prosperous and everything he heard was beautiful. He never saw the suffering of the people with his own eyes.Even though she had the people of the two counties in mind, she couldn't tell how the people of the two counties suffered.

"The two counties of Dongcheng and Dong'an are really in such a critical situation?" the King of Han asked.In the past, she only knew that natural disasters made the people suffer, and that exorbitant taxes made it impossible for the people to survive, but she never heard that even the collection of food and wages could arouse public anger.

As she spoke, she looked at the princess.The concubine smiled helplessly, and looked at her, only to see Han Wang's fair face, moist eyes, the crown inlaid with gemstones, the jade pendant hanging around his waist, and the robe made of silk, soft and comfortable, this alone is worth hundred gold.

He is just a dull child who is well-clothed and well-fed, and does not know the sufferings of the people.

The King of Han waited anxiously for the princess to clarify her doubts.

The concubine said: "If it's not urgent, the court only needs to deal with the ministers involved and return the money to the people. Why let the emperor go to caress the people in person."

The incident happened yesterday, and it is less than [-] o'clock now, no matter how vigorous and vigorous the court is, it will not be able to find out the situation of the two counties thousands of miles away.However, there are many capable ministers in the court, and the emperor is more diligent and caring for the people. The monarchs and ministers have governed the world for a long time, and they have accumulated a lot of experience. It is only less than twelve hours of interrogation and investigation, which has already allowed them to sniff out a lot of clues.

"His Royal Highness knows that ordinary commoners can eat three meals a day and wear clothes a season. Many ordinary people only eat five cents a meal. They tighten their belts and barely make ends meet." The princess explained softly, " The two counties of Dongcheng and Dong'an are not rich and prosperous places. After the people paid their taxes and raided suddenly, what else is left in the family? The timid people will live through the cold and hunger, but how can the bold ones not gather together? Trouble? There are many mountains in the two counties, and the folk customs are tough, so there are many brave men who are not afraid of death."

The King of Han became more serious when he heard this, and said: "The ministers involved in this matter really deserve to die, so disregarding the life and death of the people, what kind of officials are they?"

Her fair little face was flushed red, she was obviously angry, she wished she could go to the second county right away to punish those unconscionable ministers.If the court hadn't known this in time, it might have caused some catastrophe.

As a prince, she naturally knows that once a civil uprising breaks out, it may be necessary to send troops to suppress it. At that time, I don't know how many lives will be lost!

The king of Han was furious, but when he turned his head, he saw that the princess was still calm and indifferent.She froze for a moment, and couldn't help but think that Ayao has lived for so many years and has seen many things in the mortal world. In her eyes, this big event that angered the court may just be fleeting like a cloud of smoke, and it is not worth mentioning. .

The anger gradually dissipated from Hanwang's face, and she looked at Wangfei curiously.The concubine touched her, and the king of Han, as if inspired, hurriedly approached her and asked the concubine to touch her again.

The princess smiled lightly and got her wish.The King of Han narrowed his eyes, looked very comfortable, and said in his mouth: "Ayao, have you seen many dynasties change and change in the past thousand years?"

She has read history books. Since the beginning of the world, there have been several changes in the Wei Dynasty. The last time the dynasty was changed was more than [-] years ago.It is said that it is a Zen position, but no one knows it, it is actually usurping the throne.

The gentle stroking on the back of the neck suddenly stopped.

The king of Han was puzzled, turned his head to look, and saw the princess looked dazed, as if in a daze.

The King of Han called out tentatively, "Ayao?"

Upon hearing her voice, the concubine came back to her senses, slightly bent her lips, and said, "I must have seen it before."

"Then, the world is very miserable?"

After the King of Han asked, he saw that Wang Hao's eyes, which were always gentle as water, seemed to be filled with sadness in an instant. The King of Han's heart tightened, and he quickly held Wang Hao's hand.The princess smiled at her, the sadness in her eyes had disappeared, as if she had misread it.

The king of Han was at a loss, not knowing what was wrong.

However, the princess was already explaining to her: "It is very miserable, with rivers of blood flowing, mountains of bones, corpses all over the ground, those who starved to death, those who died in battle, and... there are also those who died for their country, the world, the living... It is lingering, and those who die are filled with hatred and resentment. Purgatory on earth is nothing more than that."

The King of Han reached out and stroked the princess' cheek, and the princess looked at her gently.

She is a peaceful person who has cultivated for thousands of years and is used to seeing the desolation of the world. She has long been without sadness or joy, calm and calm.But she always looked at Han Wang with such gentle eyes.The king of Han felt that the way the concubine looked at her was too gentle, full of cherishment and love.

The King of Han immediately blushed, both shy and happy.It's just that she said such serious words at the moment, she tried her best to ignore the burning on her face, and said seriously: "So the politicians should spread benevolent policies, and don't let the country fall into such a situation."

The princess smiled: "Your Highness said so."

With her approval, the king of Han was encouraged, he nestled beside her, and told her softly what he would do in the future.She hasn't seen the situation in the second county with her own eyes, so she can't tell clearly, it's more like a child talking about her grand ambitions.

The concubine also listened carefully, occasionally pointing out a sentence or two, her gaze was always on the King of Han, as if looking at the most rare treasure in the world.

After lunch, the king of Han went to Lu Shangshu's mansion.

She was impatient, fearing that she could not do well, she just wanted to learn more from Lu Shangshu, and without any guards of honor, she got on her horse and went to Shangshu's mansion.

Lu Shangshu was already waiting in the mansion. He listened to the doorman's report that His Highness the King of Han was coming. He looked up at the sky, it was very early, just after noon.He straightened his clothes, and Shi Shiran went out to greet him.

The old Shangshu was over fifty years old and his legs and feet were inconvenient. He deliberately walked slowly and walked outside the main gate. The King of Han had been waiting for a long time.

The king of Han didn't look bored at all, General Lu Shangshu bent over to worship, but she helped him up: "Lu Qing, don't be too polite."

According to etiquette, the two of them, one respectful and the other humble, one monarch and one minister, should be Lu Shangshu visiting the palace.But the King of Han didn't take it seriously, he came according to the appointment, and left her outside the door for a long time, and she showed no signs of impatience, and was very modest.

Lu Shangshu is a minister of the emperor, so he naturally leans towards the emperor. The King of Han acted decisively this time, which was totally different from her usual ignorance.If this is her true face, this Highness is really deep in her thoughts.

The first emperor's princes were quite ambitious, and all of them had their eyes on the throne. They were all involved in the rebellion, and were dealt with by the emperor one by one. They were killed, exiled, or imprisoned.

From the current point of view, I am afraid that the king of Han may not be serious about his peace.

The king of Han, who "may not be serious about his peace", stepped into the gate of the mansion.

Shangshu Mansion is the same as Lu Shangshu, rigorous and dignified, even the scenery is square and upright, without any sentimentality.The servants who come and go are extraordinarily polite, saluting respectfully and avoiding them without squinting. They are very polite.The King of Han secretly looked at the old Shangshu who was leading the way beside her. The old Shangshu was serious and even walked very squarely. He looked like a dignified person.

The king of Han was terrified, thinking that he would ask the old minister about various matters later, and he might have to give him a hard time.

Lu Shangshu invited the King of Han into the main hall, and let her sit on the main seat, and ordered the servants to serve tea.

The king of Han came all the way, and he had already sorted out the problems he might encounter in this journey, and he had thought carefully about how to comfort the people, and he had to ask the minister for many puzzles.

When the tea came and took a sip, she began to think about how to speak.

If in the past, Lu Shangshu would have said whatever he had, but after Hanwang's performance this day, he no longer dared to underestimate her, and was considering how to speak to her.

For a moment, the two people in the hall fell silent together.

After a while, it was the King of Han who spoke first. They were running out of time. His Majesty ordered them to leave Beijing as soon as possible. Better to ask sooner.

Lu Shangshu knew that it was the first time for the King of Han to receive an envoy, and most likely he didn't know how to act. When he met her, he intended to remind her, so as not to make a mistake and end badly.He was not surprised when he heard the King of Han's question now, and he answered it with all his heart.

It's just that the more the King of Han asked, the more serious Lu Shangshu's expression became.His Majesty the King of Han, who doesn't know the sufferings of the people, can think of whether to move some food from the treasury first to relieve the hunger of the people.

Just because she can think of people's grievances and people's anger, most of which come from people's stomachs being hungry, she is a hundred times stronger than many dudes in Beijing who don't want to eat minced meat.

He only admired it, but he didn't expect that the king of Han was taught by a great demon who had practiced for 3000 years and was used to seeing all kinds of things in the world.
