spring as old

Chapter 17

The tranquility in the mountains is like being isolated from the world. No matter how chaotic the world is, you can't come here.

Pu Yang took a deep breath and relaxed his body and mind.

Wei Xiu was making tea in the court, and there was a pair of aprons on the table in front of her, there were no other guests beside her, as if she was just waiting for the princess to come.

Pu Yang smiled as soon as he entered the door: "Unexpectedly, my husband and I have such a tacit understanding."

There is a gentle breeze in the mountains, surrounded by simple and simple trees, there are several tables in the courtyard, there are tea, chess, and elegant men, just thinking about this scene is already fascinating, let alone Puyang is in it.

Pu Yang walked up to Wei Xiu and sat down, Wei Xiu smiled at her, took out the teacup soaked in hot water, put it in front of Pu Yang, and filled her with tea.Both of them took a sip, Wei Xiufang said: "Seeing His Highness's expression is at ease, we know that the next month will be quite smooth for His Highness."

Really smooth.

The mansion is under construction, it will be where she will live in the future, the Ministry of Works dare not neglect, and sent many craftsmen to work together, it will be ready within two months.

In addition, for the donation matter, although she didn't stand up to the public and make a big noise for the princes and dignitaries to contribute, she was the first to initiate it in the court, and she also sent people to the folk campaign. It was really a good thing to do this, so it added fuel to the fire, and things progressed more smoothly.

In this way, although she didn't publicize it, the people also know that the Seventh Emperor's daughter did this good deed, and because she didn't take the initiative to mention it, it added a sense of mystery that "doing good deeds does not leave a name".

"It's exactly as Mr. said, nothing goes wrong." Pu Yang laughed, not forgetting to ask for credit, "The mansion was chosen by me personally, and there is a bamboo forest in it, lush and green, although it is not as vast as Mr.'s place, it is also Don't feel bad."

Wei Xiu listened to her carefully.Pu Yang was even more interested: "I ordered someone to build a yard next to it, which is about the same size as this thatched hut. I hope it will make Mr. Wang feel comfortable."

Completely ignoring what Yu Weixiu said last time that she has her own residence in Beijing.

Wei Xiu naturally declined: "I have already sent someone to tidy up my residence in Beijing, so there is no need to worry about your Highness."

He must be still angry about the "Golden House". It has been a month and it still hasn't disappeared. This anger is really strong.If it were someone else, Pu Yang would definitely let her go, if he didn't go with her, could it be possible that he could be coaxed by her?

But Wei Xiu is different, ever since he knew that she was a woman, Pu Yang not only respected her talent, but also had an inexplicable affection for her, and had a bit of curiosity and admiration for "how a woman can do this".Combined with several factors, Pu Yang is extremely tolerant towards Wei Xiu, so just coax her, who made her rely on her husband?What's more, she made an inappropriate comparison, forgetting that the golden house is more of a symbol of the relationship between a man and a woman, and it is too frivolous to talk about it carefully.

Pu Yang said softly: "What did you say sir? With me in Beijing, how can I let you live alone? Besides, if I have something unexpected to discuss with you in the future, in an emergency, I have to send someone to look for you. No trouble?"

Her tone was as gentle as water, and it was still the warm flowing water in the spring river, with rippling blue waves, extremely tender.What she said was comprehensive and reasonable, but the tone made Wei Xiu feel that the princess was just coaxing her.

Wei Xiu frowned.

When she asked the princess where to put her, it was just to remind her that she still lacked a place to live and should move out of the palace.Although the palace is good, it is inconvenient after all.

She had never thought of living in the future Princess Mansion, but His Highness seemed to have misunderstood something.

Wei Xiu wondered if he should explain one or two things.

However, seeing that she seemed to be thinking about something, Pu Yang thought that she still couldn't get off the stage. After thinking for a while, he dispelled the softness in his eyes and became very serious: "What are you hesitating, sir? If the matter is urgent, you will delay for a moment No, rather than staying away from my residence, it would be more convenient to live here."

Say it like it's real business.

But Weixiu is so sensitive, she could see right away that the princess was really looking out for business, but she seemed to want her to live together.

It's just that what the princess said is reasonable, and since she is considered the princess' guest, it's not good to refute her too much, so Wei Xiu agreed.What she thought was that instead of objecting to make the princess feel unhappy, it is better to agree so that the princess can feel at ease.

Only then did Pu Yang feel happy: "So, I can rest assured."

After solving the problem of where to live, they set up a chess game.The sky is high and the air is bright, and the singing of birds in the mountains is melodious, making it a leisurely and comfortable experience.Both of them are interested, talking and making money at the same time.

The beginning of go is about the layout, both of them have deep gaps in their hearts, they are also proficient in chess, they played it easily at the beginning, each of them dropped one piece after another, and they talked about other things in their mouths.

"I heard that His Royal Highness Jin Wang's disaster relief has not gone well?" Wei Xiu asked.

Pu Yang was not at all surprised why she was able to know these things while she was in the mountains, she had already guessed that there should be a group of people under Wei Xiu's subordinates who would listen to her.

"It's really not going well." Jin Wang still distinguishes the severity. The affected county is not far from the capital, and the emperor attaches great importance to it. He dare not use any means. In addition, the emperor sent Zhang Daozhi to go together, and Jin Wang has not figured it out yet. According to the emperor's intention, he only wanted to do this mission well and go back to Beijing in a bright manner. As for cutting some labor expenses from the disaster relief money, he didn't care about it.

It's a pity that good things can't be done with good intentions.

Pu Yang gloated: "He is not capable enough. He made a mistake in the deployment of manpower at the beginning, and almost buried a group of soldiers in the mountain flood. The people below are not willing to listen to him. He went there with the intention of making meritorious deeds. , How can you just let the flag stop? Once you come and go, you will delay the business. Fortunately, there is Zhang Dao, so it will not lead to a catastrophe."

After finishing speaking, he asked again: "How can Father Jin not know? Why did you send him there?"

Pu Yang guessed that the emperor wanted to vent his anger on her, or that the emperor was afraid of what happened last time, thinking that the king of Jin was unfriendly and unkind, and he was a safe plan for the court, so he never dealt with it directly, but he also didn't want to let the king of Jin take power in the court.

Wei Xiu thought the same as her: "I'm afraid there is a meaning to use this to test the ability of the King of Jin." A county cannot be reconciled, let alone the world?

King Jin and Pu Yang had a grudge, even if it wasn't made public, as in the case of last time, they would never die.Pu Yang laughed when he heard this, and wanted to test Wei Xiu again, wanting to see if Wei Xiu, who had shrunk to 12 years old, had the sensitivity of his previous life: "So, according to Mr., what will Dad do next?"

"Ding——" a piece fell, and there was a dull sound on the chessboard made of rosewood.Wei Xiu took another look at the chess game, Fang withdrew his hand, and said, "This disaster relief should be the last chance His Majesty gave King Jin. After that, King Jin's power may fade away."

"How to eliminate it?" Pu Yang asked again.

Wei Xiu smiled: "Your Majesty has other sons." It was still a way of checks and balances, "I heard that King Jing and King Jin are very good friends."

The first half of the sentence was the same as Pu Yang thought, but at the second half of the sentence, she was stunned: "Liulang?"

The sixth prince, King Jing, has a good relationship with King Jin, and he is very dedicated to winning people's hearts for him.If he were to make up for King Jin's vacancy, he would have to turn the two of them against each other first.But King Jing and King Jin have always been in harmony, so how can they say that they have turned against each other?

Pu Yang remembered that in the previous life, King Jing was implicated and exiled far away by King Jin, there were no rumors of disharmony between the two, how could it become so fast?

Seeing that Pu Yang had doubts, Wei Xiu said affirmatively: "If there is one person, it must be King Jing."

Pu Yang is still skeptical, in her opinion, acting as the king is more likely.The acting king is the fourth, ranking higher than King Jing, and he has always had the desire to seize the heir, but he is blocked by the aura of King Zhao and King Jin, so he dare not act rashly.If His Majesty gives him a chance, he will seize it.

Pu Yang said: "I guess it's the acting king."

Wei Xiu made another move calmly: "It's His Highness's turn to make a move."

Pu Yang lowered his head to look at the chess game, Wei Xiu analyzed it with her, most people analyze, they have to first talk about the strengths and shortcomings of both sides, but Wei Xiu only said that the Dai Wang is not enough: "The Dai Wang has the intentions to be true, and the temper It's a bit softer, how can Duozhi have the patience to look forward and backward? Your Majesty won't like it."

Dad really doesn't like acting kings, but he doesn't like any of the princes, otherwise why did he pass the throne to his eldest grandson in the last life, bypassing his son?Pu Yang retorted: "But under the oppression of Erlang Saburo, Shiro also let him exert a little influence, which shows that he is also smart, not as useless as the master said."

While playing chess, while thinking about the situation in the court, Wei Xiu was still able to handle it with ease, she made another move, and then said with a smile: "Why don't you make a bet with me, Your Highness? It depends on who is right."

Without even thinking about it, Pu Yang said: "Okay, the loser..." She paused for a moment, what she needs to guarantee most now is Wei Xiu's loyalty and that she will not switch to other camps in the future, so she said confidently: "The loser In the years to come, no matter what the winner says, you must believe her, and you must not lie to her."

Based on Puyang's experience, trust is the key to maintaining a relationship.As for this gamble, she has a previous life experience, so she is sure to win.

In the years to come, this gamble is too big. For people like them, what is the difference between putting life and death in the hands of the winner?Wei Xiu hesitated for a while, she held the white piece in her hand, and when she dropped it, she looked at Puyang, her eyes were filled with a flying look, as if she was not afraid of anything, and as if she could get everything she wanted in this world, That radiant confidence made Wei Xiu stunned.

The bet she just mentioned suddenly became like a spell.

She moved her eyes uncomfortably, and said: "Your Highness is very courageous, so I will follow what Your Highness says."

Pu Yang smiled in satisfaction, picked up a sunspot from the chess cage, and was about to drop it, when he saw that on the densely packed chessboard, all possible paths for the sunspot had been mercilessly blocked.

She has lost.
