spring as old

After driving to the foot of the mountain, Pu Yang paid attention to the terrain along the way, only to find that Mang Mountain is quite far away from the road where she was assassinated. It is no wonder that Zhang Daozhi and the others searched carefully, but they never came here.

After getting out of the car, she abandoned the chariot and walked up a stone step leading to the top of the mountain.

The climate in Luoyang is dry and windy in spring, and the sun is rolling as soon as summer comes.However, after walking a few steps, I felt quite hot, and thanks to the rain these few days, at any rate, the mountain scenery was empty and cool, so that it would not make it difficult for people to walk an inch.

Pu Yang walked among the trees with great interest.Mang Mountain is similar to all mountains, with many trees and deep forests, and there are flocks of birds in the mountains, or squirrels, rabbits and the like jump over.

After walking through the stone steps, the mountain road became steeper before even halfway up the mountain.

Fearing that Puyang would be tired, the eunuch advised her to take a rest.

Puyang raised his head and saw the rugged mountain road. Looking further ahead, the end of the road was hidden in dense and green forests. The eyes were full of greenery, and he didn't know how long he had to go.

The injury has just recovered, so it is not advisable to be too tired.After thinking about it for a while, she found a boulder on the side of the road to rest her feet before continuing on her way.

Walking and resting, Puyang did not force his physical strength.As soon as he arrived at the thatched cottage, he saw a handsome young man with two servants in the distance, with a graceful figure and leisurely steps, step by step from far to near.

Sir, why are there outsiders here?Pu Yang thought.

She didn't stop and walked over.

Mang Mountain is vast and vast, steep and precipitous. The mountain road twists and turns, and it is very difficult to walk up the mountain.Pu Yang walked here and was almost exhausted, but she still adjusted her breathing and pace, her dress was elegant and her demeanor was dignified.

Approaching slowly, the young man saw Pu Yang, his face was overjoyed, he walked up quickly, and saluted lightly, very carelessly, but his bright smile revealed a kind of intimacy.

"Why did Sister come to this mountain?" Looking behind her, several eunuchs were holding boxes, and said with a smile, "So it was personally presented to Mr. Wei."

Seeing him here, Pu Yang thumped, and asked with a smile on his face, "Why is Wu Lang here?"

This is Wang Chun, Puyang's cousin, the second son of Wang Gun, and the fifth among his brothers.Puyang and his uncle's family have always been close and get along very well with all brothers and sisters, so Wang Chun is not afraid of her at all. Although he calls her sister, she was born only ten days later than Puyang. closest in age.

The emperor once wanted to marry Puyang to the Wang family. The main consideration was that Wang was Puyang's mother-in-law and would not treat her badly. Jiaerlang is not as good as Puyang, so she is kept. Most of the other princesses will get married by fifteen or sixteen. Mostly government affairs.

Seeing that the emperor liked her, he also knew that she had always had a strict tone of voice, and would never spread what she heard. In addition, the emperor believed that although Puyang was a princess, she could not be ignorant of government affairs. Talk to her, as small as a county corvee, as large as deploying defenses at the border, they all use it to gossip with her.

Now when Wang Chun saw Puyang asking, he said: "My daddy ordered me to come. The day I greeted my sister, I took a glimpse of it. My dad kept it in mind and wanted Mr. Yanwei to be Wang's guest. It's a pity that he has been busy these days. If you don’t have time to spare, let me come to visit first.”

The tone of voice is very appreciative, thinking about going back and forth, there must be many compliments.

Pu Yang: "..." Why is Uncle so impatient.

Wang Chun looked up at the sky and saw that the sky was cloudy today, but the sun was not visible. He said, "Sister, let's go quickly. It may rain in this day, so I have to go down the mountain quickly."

Puyang didn't stop him, but told him to be careful on the road, and asked him if he had brought an umbrella, and asked the eunuch to give him an umbrella.

Wang Chun saw that they were just a coincidence, and it would not be enough to borrow from him, so he quickly declined.

Pu Yang said: "It's okay, I can borrow it from Mr. Wei when I go to the mountain."

Only then did Wang Chun accept it.

After Pu Yang said this sentence, he thought it was a good idea, so he borrowed the umbrella, if the husband still doesn't want to go to Beijing with her this time, she can come back in the name of returning the umbrella.

Pu Yang continued to move forward, Wang Chun saw her walking away from behind, so he went down the mountain.

The thatched hut is still the same as when she left, but the bamboo forest behind the hut seems to be more green.

The servant came out when he heard the sound, and when he saw her, he knelt down and bowed, and then went into the house to report.

Pu Yang stood outside the chai gate, following the way of being a guest, when Wei Xiu's figure appeared in her eyes, she quickly stepped forward, smiled and saluted Wei Xiu.

The two entered the door together, Puyang Fang said: "I came here today for Mr. Xie."

As soon as she finished speaking, several eunuchs stepped forward and presented the gift.Pu Yang selected a long emerald green box from it, and said: "The rest are all prepared by the family lord, Mr. Xie."

Then, Wei Wei looked forward to it: "This is from Mr. Xie." While saying that, she handed the box to Wei Xiu.

After thanking Wei Xiu, he took it with both hands, and did not hand it over to the maid beside him immediately, but put it on his lap, and said with a smile: "Wang Lang just left not long ago, can your Highness meet him on the way?"

"See you." The servant brought the tea, Pu Yang took the teacup and replied: "I don't know if Brother She has caused trouble to you?"

"Xiao Langjun's beauty and beauty won my heart." Wei Xiu said.

Pu Yang: "...the demeanor of the Wang family is indeed rare in Beijing." I was very upset, why did you win your heart.

Wei Xiu smiled, she was always calm, this smile was as distant and pure as a distant mountain.

Pu Yang's displeasure also dissipated, and when he narrowed his eyes slightly, he saw Wei Xiu's fingertips unconsciously rubbing on the box, and he couldn't help but want to see her expression after opening the box, but unfortunately, out of etiquette, the host would not be the one. Unwrapping gifts in front of guests.

She's doing what she likes, sir, it's what she likes.Pu Yang thought.

Except that the gift from Puyang was still in Weixiu's hands, all the gifts from the emperor were collected by the servants.These gifts are very numerous, even if you have never seen them in person, you know they are all precious things.

Pu Yang intentionally or unintentionally talked to Wei Xiu about the past half a month in the palace, together with the arrival of King Jin.

She doesn't like King Jin. She is beside the emperor, and she has been fascinated by government affairs since she was a child. To say something arrogant, compared with Zhao and Jin, her political accomplishment is much higher.Not to mention anything else, just because of the matter of those two assassins, King Jin thought that Pu Yang intentionally broke his arm, but in Pu Yang's opinion, it is better not to have such a person.It's okay for a subordinate to have some flaws, but if there is a loss in a big festival, it will be serious. Who knows that one day the master will be implicated?

"Erlang is also kind. The matter of the Youzhou Inspector intercepting the tribute earlier could easily be attached to Sanlang, but he let it go." Many people know that the Assassin is King Jin, and he intercepted the tribute. , Maybe it's dedicated to King Jin?

"His Royal Highness Zhao Wang may have other ideas." Wei Xiu said.

If you have an idea, you have implemented it long ago, why there is still no movement today, she said this, but she was polite, considering that it was Pu Yang's elder brother.

Pu Yang pursed his lips, met Wulang on the mountain road, knew that Uncle would not give up, and sent his parents and sons to watch, Wulang would definitely report to Uncle when he returned, and Uncle got the letter, he must report to his grandfather, who is the most important Cherishing talents, how can you be indifferent, and Wei Lang's name may be spread, and the tranquility of the thatched cottage will be broken.

This is a full 12 years earlier than the previous life.

Pu Yang sighed in his heart, if there are endless people seeking talents, how can she be favored by her husband even though she is a princess?I really think it would be better to snatch people away directly.

But in this way, even if you get people, you can't get hearts.

Experience tells Puyang that for a noble and reclusive person, it is best to be emotional, calm, trust, and sincerity are indispensable, but the most important thing is not these three, but the future.

Those who are willing to be the master of the staff, who doesn't want to create a prosperous world and go down in history?

"Your Highness and I are also old friends. How can Your Highness feel sorry for you when we meet?" Wei Xiu said suddenly.

Pu Yang came back to his senses, with a slightly hesitant look on his face.

Judging from what she accomplished in her previous life, if Wei Xiu wanted to be an official, she could do it, even if it was the position of prime minister, she could take it with her, but her ambition was not here.

She is different from those hermits outside.

He looked up to see Wei Xiu's concerned gaze.

Pu Yang's heart moved slightly, he smiled, and told the truth: "Recently, I have been worrying a lot, and with my wisdom, I can't find a way to solve it, and I would like to ask the master for advice."

She had a smile on her face, but her eyes followed her heart, showing melancholy and confusion.Obviously, what she was worried about was not a trivial matter.

Wei Xiu lowered her eyes and said: "My talents and virtues are shallow, so I may not be able to relieve His Highness' worries."

She took a retreating posture, and Pu Yang felt a little sad, but she quickly smiled and said: "Sir, just give me a place to talk."

After all, Pu Yang is a princess, so it would be too much to refuse.

Wei Xiu sighed, as if sighed by her persistence, and then made a gesture of invitation: "Please speak, Your Highness."

Pu Yang began to speak softly: "I went to school with my brothers and grew up together. Erlang is ten years older than me. When I entered school, I saw that he was at odds with Sanlang and Shiro, especially three years ago. When the eldest brother passed away, Erlang thought that he had become the eldest son, and he should inherit the family business, while the rest thought that the eldest son was not there, and the rest had no advantage in terms of etiquette. Can't be called wise."

The excellence of the Xiao family seems to have been exhausted by the emperor and the first two generations of Xiao's sons, and in Puyang's generation, there is no prince with special talents.

"Erlang is not enough, Sanlang and Shiro are enough? But if there is a little courage, why is the court still calm?" Pu Yang paused, looking straight at Wei Xiu with a pair of exquisite clear eyes, "I don't like them. "

Wei Xiu nodded: "Your Highness's feelings are reasonable."

She didn't persuade her to look away, but understood, Puyang felt a little warmth in his heart, and continued to speak, his tone eased: "But I am a princess, and I am not destined to be the crown prince. In the future, no matter who wins, I will be If you want to worship, if you are as powerful and strategic as Father, I am willing."

Wei Xiu's eyes flashed, and she stroked the box on her lap with her fingertips.

"But Erlang and the others are like that, how can I be willing to pay homage to them!" Pu Yang said.

She knew that Xiao Dewen won in the end, but right now, no one would know the result, so she didn't mention the generation of the emperor and grandson.

Wei Xiu was silent for a moment, then Fang said: "So, what does Your Highness want to do?"

"At least you can keep yourself safe and not be easily manipulated by others."

Wei Xiu said: "It's difficult."

Is it difficult, the emperor is here, pampering her, not forcing her, what will happen after he goes?In her last life, no matter how hard she tried, she was unsuccessful.Reflecting on the reasons for my failure recently, what kept turning in my mind was Tai Shiling's sentence "Foreign stars are forcing the palace, we should remove the traitors and use righteousness to surpass the standard."

If you want to add a crime, why worry!

She just didn't agree with Xiao Dewen, but which one of the things she did was not for the Wei family?But Xiao Dewen couldn't tolerate her taking power.

"I know the dangers and dangers, so..." Just now, what I said was just to talk, and I couldn't say the words to ask for advice.

"The emperor has a natural advantage. If your highness wants not to be manipulated by others, you should have power in your hands. If you have power in your hands, it is easy to be jealous. If the successor wants to take your highness's life, if your highness is strong enough, you can resist him. If you abolish the king, you will be jealous." Stand up and support the new monarch." Wei Xiu said lightly.

Hearing that she took the initiative to advise her, Pu Yang's eyes lit up, and when he heard the latter, he was very moved.In her previous life, her power was no weaker than that of Xiao Dewen, if it wasn't for Xiao Dewen's sudden attack and she didn't have time to ask for help, it would be hard to know who would die.If she wanted to abolish the establishment as soon as she realized that Xiao Dewen was dissatisfied with her...

Pu Yang quickly considered the possibility of success.

"But how can Your Highness be sure that the new monarch will be willing to be a puppet?" Wei Xiu said in a calm tone, "Could it be abolished again? It can be abolished again, but will the next successor be able to do so?" Make sure you are obedient? The most unpredictable thing is the human heart."

Pu Yang was startled, it was true, she suddenly felt flustered, but she still forced herself to be calm, an answer was getting closer and closer, but the answer was too shocking, she intentionally avoided it.

Taking a deep breath, he stared at Wei Xiu with piercing eyes: "Choose a young son as the new king, and I will raise it myself."

"It's enough to raise it yourself? All kings are saints and their own sons. Doesn't Your Highness also look down on them? Besides," Wei Xiu smiled vaguely, as if there was a bleakness like cold rain on a winter night spreading around her lips, and then she waited. Pu Yang took a closer look, but felt that his eyes were dazzled, Wei Xiu said calmly, "I will never forget the bullying I suffered when I was young, and I will always get it back when I grow up."

She no longer played charades with Pu Yang: "Why bother to establish a new monarch, why not replace him, Your Highness!"
