little son-in-law
Chapter 129
It has been more than a month since the case of the Rong family was rehabilitated, but people in the capital are still talking about it. The resurrection from the dead, revenge and revenge are more exciting than the legends in the mouth of the storyteller. Even the relationship between the emperor and Princess Xiling The wedding is over and no one pays attention to it. Rumors about Prince Rong are flying all over the sky. Some people say that Prince Rong was eating in a restaurant that day, and I sat at the table next to him. Some people say that when Prince Rong went to court, I met him. He looks so handsome, but someone immediately retorted, nonsense, Prince Rong is obviously a big fat man, I passed by his door the day before yesterday, and some people said that the fifth son of my second uncle and third aunt's fourth mother-in-law was making flowers at his house Carpenter, I went to see him the day before yesterday. Prince Rong even greeted me when he saw me. He is two feet tall, with eyes as big as bells. up.However, Prince Rong is now a newcomer in the capital, a big celebrity in front of the emperor, this is a consensus, just look at the continuous rewards, and look at the special case that other than the emperor can sit in the court, this matter can't be more clear.
After listening to Su Weiyang's recitation, Rong Jin laughed so hard that tears came out. With his chubby appearance, he didn't have the heart to go to the street for people to visit. After going to court every day, he would accompany Nangong Jingshen to eat in the palace. He came back to sleep after lunch. He knew that this wave of turbulence would probably last for a while. Living under the eyes of so many people, Mu Hanju could not come and go freely. After all, it was sealed by the first emperor. It's always difficult to explain when people see it. Besides, now that the status has been restored, no matter what aspect it is, there are human contacts. It is not the case that there is no official mansion. The Prince Rong's mansion originally had a mansion in the capital. There are some other courtyards and Zhuangzi, but Rongxi and Rongjin have not been here these years, and the Rong family has been in decline, so there are few people to take care of those places, and they look quite deserted.
Fortunately, Nangong Jingshen also thought of this level. There are four or five pretty good gardens in the seal, and they live there for the time being. In the original place, Mrs. Mo asked Uncle Fu to take care of it. There are a few old servants looking after it, the abandoned land is not very serious, what needs to be repaired, what needs to be replaced, and what is really not enough is to be pulled down and restarted.
"For your blessing, everyone knows that I have a good relationship with Prince Rong, and my house is also very lively these days. Everyone praises Mr. Su as if they are smearing honey on their lips, and the topic changes around. Transferred to Prince Rong." The emperor made a decree, with a solemn face, and everyone could understand the actual meaning. It was nothing more than that Prince Rong was unwell and needed to rest. It's nothing important. Don't bother.But the position of Prince Rong is here, there are a few people in the court who don't want to make friends, but unfortunately the channel is blocked by the emperor's decree, A Jin does not shy away from herself in her words and deeds, and the emperor has the tendency to add fuel to the flames. Come here whenever you want, Su Xiang accompanied Prince Rong to have a look, this task should be left to Su Xiang and Prince Rong to do it, and now everyone knows that he and this newly released nobleman have known each other since childhood, those who Those who want to make friends, inquire about their preferences, and inquire about news, swarmed towards him.
"It is estimated that someone is waiting in the mansion right now. I plan not to go back today."
"It's up to you." Seeing that he was ready to be foolish, Rong Jin glanced at him indifferently, and continued to draw on the paper. It seems that it was the right decision to talk about everything in Nanshan. How good it is now, he and Wei Young can still be best friends and brothers.
"Then what are Pearls going to do tonight?" The cook in Ajin's mansion is really unmatched by ordinary people. She can cook any dish at her fingertips, and she can cook a few snacks from all over the place, and they all taste very good.
"Then what does Xiang Su want to eat?" People really don't talk about it, whoever comes, just mentioning pearls, she came.
"I'm a guest, what do you want to do, Pearl, what do you want to eat?" Su Weiyang squinted and smiled, walking without making a sound, and the maids around Ajin were also interesting.
Zhenzhu put the two bowls of soup in the food box on the table, the bamboo sun and chicken soup for Rong Jin, and the red bean soup for Su Weiyang, "It's summer, it's a bit hot today, why don't I make some Jiangnan stir-fries that I'm good at?" Sample?"
"It happens that I don't have much appetite, and the Jiangnan stir fry is light, which is the best." I knew that Lai was the right choice at A Jin's place.
"Is there anything else your lord would like to eat?" Since Rong Jin regained her identity, Pearl and the others have also changed their names graciously.
"I don't have any more, just stew some ribs for those two little guys." That's enough, no matter how many good things I eat, I still like to eat ribs the most.
Pearl pursed her lips and said with a smile: "This is already prepared." The two young princes had already secretly greeted her, "If it's all right, the maidservant will leave first."
"Well, let's go down."
"Ah Jin, you've been sitting there for a long time, what are you drawing?" Su Weiyang drank two mouthfuls of red bean soup, and lay down nonchalantly with a bowl.
"I'm almost done, don't drip it on my drawings." Rong Jin put the penholder in his hand against his forehead, preventing him from approaching any further. I really don't know how he pretended to be calm and elegant in front of outsiders.
Su Weiyang didn't care about his stuff, and besides, Ajin didn't use much force, so he took it as acquiescence, he stared at it for a while, frowned and said: "This is like a flow chart of several big rivers near the capital."
"Yes, those rivers."
"What are those branches over there?" Su Weiyang pointed around the river with her fingers.
"Water conservancy project."
"How do you say this?"
"Just like last year, there was a severe drought near the capital, but there was a flood in Jiangzhou, which is [-] miles away from the capital. The shortest distance between the Jiading River in the capital and the Qingjiang River in Jiangzhou is less than [-] miles."
"Ah Jin, you mean..." Su Weiyang was shocked, no one had ever done this before.
Rong Jin nodded: "As you think, get through."
"This can't be done overnight." Besides, he saw that there was more than one place on A Jin's picture.
"I know that it won't work in ten years, but it will always be possible in 20 years. As long as these rivers are connected, they can discharge floods and divert water for irrigation. Here, here, and here can guarantee harvests in drought and flood. main source of taxation."
At this moment, Su Weiyang finally felt that the former Rong Jin had returned, proud, decisive, confident and strong, he should never just be the farmer in Nanshan Town who guards two acres of land and works silently.
"How did you suddenly think of this?" He knew that there was a vacancy in the Ministry of Industry recently, and A Jin was temporarily handling some things, but he didn't know that A Jin was really interested in these things.
Rong Jin smiled and said: "This is not what I thought. It was proposed by a person named Li You from the Ministry of Industry. I accidentally saw it in Qionghua Pavilion. It seems that it has been suppressed for a long time. The specifics are still unknown." We have to wait for the officials from the Ministry of Industry to send people to go down to make a detailed inspection before making a decision, but we can’t just rely on the sky for food forever, we must overhaul water conservancy projects.” This is the case in many places now, relying on the sky for food, and when there is a drought or flood year , or starve to death, or wait for relief from the court, like Yunzhou is already considered a very rich place.
Su Weiyang rubbed her chin and thought for a while: "Li You? I have an impression of this person. He was not a small manager. He was a member of the Ministry of Industry from the sixth grade. This person is young, but has a bad temper. It's hard, and you can't turn the corners when you talk. Once, I went to Yuyang to inspect the river embankment with the boss of the Ministry of Water, and found out that someone was short of funds for river treatment, and the river embankment cut corners. I gave the emperor a book, but I didn't take it out later. As for the evidence, he was bitten back and falsely accused his colleagues, and almost lost his black hat, but the emperor said that he was loyal and commendable, so he demoted him to be the principal and keep it."
"Subject to the paper without evidence?" This person was a little too reckless.
"It is said that there was evidence at first, but it was burned later. The truth is unclear. In short, there is no case without evidence. But in my opinion of this person, what this person said is [-]% true."
"Is this the end of the matter?"
"There is no way. Later, the emperor sent someone to investigate. All the deficits have been made up, and the embankment has been well built. It is impossible to investigate endlessly for him alone."
Rong Jin understands that things in the officialdom cannot be summed up in black and white.
"Do you mean to recommend him just now?" Su Weiyang asked.
"He is a talented person. The Ministry of Industry is different from others. It needs real talent and hard work, but blindly pedantic can't make a big deal. Let him come another day. Let's see and talk. If possible, I hope he works in the Ministry of Industry. Get some results."
Su Weiyang was silent for a while, and asked: "Ah Jin, do you know the consequences of doing this?" Why was Li You's performance table impounded, because no one dared to help him report this matter, this project is too huge , but the effect is not immediately apparent. No one is willing to take responsibility for political achievements that may take many years to appear. If one of them is not careful, it is easy to be accused of wasting money and wasting money. This crime is not a small one. The head of the Ministry of Industry can bear it.
"Once it succeeds, thousands of miles of fertile fields, abundant food, and great national power, Daning will not be afraid of anyone." This is the country that his parents, Nangong Jingshen and his children will protect in the future.
"Okay, if you decide, I will sign this paper together with you."
Rong Jin smiled and nodded, he knew it would be successful.
"Those are still far away. We can take a long-term plan. Let's talk about it now. During the Chinese New Year, there were a few snowfalls in many places in the north, but there was very little rain in spring. This year's harvest here is still not optimistic. The war in Beiyuan I'm up again." Speaking of water conservancy, Su Weiyang couldn't help but sigh.
Rong Jin pondered, and Nangong Jingshen was also worried about these things. The decree of tax reduction and exemption has been made, but it is not a complete solution after all.
"Your chicken soup is getting cold, drink it quickly, or he will be hungry, and he will make trouble with you later." After seeing A Jin's pregnancy, I realized that the child is really troublesome.
Rong Jin stretched out her hand to take it. After sitting for a long time, she realized that her back was sore when she moved.
"You drink the soup, for the sake of taking you in today, I'll rub a couple of it for you." Su Weiyang rolled up his sleeves, he had done this a few times, and he was quite proficient.
Mo Yunzheng did not expect to see such a scene as soon as he entered the door, Rong Jin was drinking soup with his head down, Su Weiyang was standing behind him rubbing his shoulders, pointing at the paper on the table from time to time, the two were talking in low voice, smiling casually Naturally, there is a tacit understanding that is difficult for others to penetrate.
"Eldest young master?" Xiao Mo, who led him in, saw Mo Yunzheng standing there in a daze, and called out in confusion.
Mo Yunzheng smiled.
Rong Jin and Su Weiyang raised their heads at the same time when they heard the voice, although they were still smiling, Mo Yunzheng knew that there was still a difference.
Rong Jin got up, "Lord Mo, Lord Luo, please come in." The kind-looking young man next to Mo Yunzheng is Luo Jingwen from the Ministry of Finance. He heard Nangong Jingshen mention that he is talented but very slippery. Everything is done well, and Li You's personality is very different, but they are from the same hometown, and they are also Jinshi on the same list.
"My lord, you're welcome." Mo Yunzheng didn't dare to ask him to say hello. Others might not know, but he knew that Rong Jin was pregnant and she was the heir of the emperor, so he couldn't ignore it.
"Su Xiang is here too." Luo Jingwen saluted.
"Why are Luo Shilang and Mr. Mo going together?" Su Weiyang nodded and greeted him. He and Mo Yunzheng had a good relationship, and Luo Jingwen was just a nodding acquaintance.
"We came together when we met on the road." Mo Yunzheng answered this sentence.
Mo Yunzheng knew very well what position this person put himself in. A colleague, at best, was just a friend. After all, he was no match for someone whom his childhood sweetheart had kept in his heart for many years, even if that person no longer belonged to him. What's the use, it's still important to get down to business, "I've already done what my lord told me a few days ago."
Su Weiyang asked from the side: "Since when did the two of you become so familiar?"
Mo Yunzheng smiled unnaturally.
Rong Jin made a rescue, "Master Mo is very knowledgeable. I heard that Mr. Mo has also done a lot of research on the celestial phenomena of water patterns in the past dynasties near the capital, so I asked Mr. Mo to help me."
"If the prince doesn't dislike it, you should call me Yunzheng."
In terms of their identities today, this is okay, but after all, Mo Yunzheng is a few years older than him, and the two families are family friends, and Rong Jin is not easy to trust, "Then in private, I'll call you Brother Mo Bar?"
Mo Yunzheng understood what he meant, and said with a smile, "This is better than Master Mo."
In this way, the relationship between the two has become much closer invisibly.
Rong Jin brought Mo Yunzheng to the book case and told him his plan. He wanted to build some water conservancy projects near the capital this year. "This year's drought, the harvest is not good, and the fields don't need so many people to look after them. , At this time, I am out of corvee and building water conservancy projects, so the common people will be more happy."
"The construction of water conservancy will benefit the people, and they must understand."
"Ah Jin, I suddenly thought of an idea." Su Weiyang said,
"Oh? Tell me." Rong Jin also wanted to know what other good ideas he had.
"It's impossible for everyone to come out of corvee, and it's been a private consensus among everyone to hire people with money, so why don't we just put this kind of thing on the surface, use silver as a substitute for the labor, and let the imperial court uniformly pay for the hiring of people. In this way, the revenue of the national treasury is increased, and secondly, as many people are employed as are needed, so as to avoid blind consumption of manpower, and it is also convenient for those who pay the agency silver.”
Rong Jin nodded, "That's a good idea."
"Hearing Su Xiang talk about this, I also thought of one thing." Luo Jingwen was a low-ranking official. After entering the door and saying hello, he sat and listened to everyone's conversation, and didn't join in. When he suddenly spoke at this moment, the eyes of the other three Throwing at him, seeing his unhurried and unchanging expression, Rong Jin knew that this person might have some skills just because of his calmness, "Some time ago, I saw an excerpt from General Zhenwei Sun Zhiping , proposed to farm in the western frontier."
"I've also read this brochure, what does Luo Shilang want to say?" Su Weiyang asked curiously as it was a rare time for this to happen.
"The lower official wants to say that the five-year tax reduction and exemption for farming in the northwest border can attract refugees to go. Why not divide the tax into states, increase the rich land appropriately, and reduce the wild land in the northwest, northeast, and southwest appropriately, so as to make the landless People who cultivate are willing to go to open up wasteland."
Su Weiyang was secretly surprised, he thought that this Luo Shilang would only climb up through connections, but after hearing what he said, he turned out to be a hidden master.
Looking at the attitudes of the other two people in the room, Rong Jin knew that they also agreed. Luo Jingwen's idea was very good. He didn't know the purpose of Luo Jingwen's coming here today, but these words made him remember this person successfully.
Looking at these people, Rong Jin suddenly had an idea that Daning might be about to usher in a glorious era of prosperity and famous ministers and generals, but history proved that he was right. Lin Jian, who judges cases like a god, Li You, a famous minister of water control, and Luo Jingwen, who later became the prime minister, single-handedly promoted the taxation reform known as the "Luo Family Reform" in later generations, and also achieved Nangong in the battles with Beiyuan and Xiling. Zhiyuan, Sun Zhiping, Shao Mingting, Chen Jing and other famous generals on the battlefield.Together they witnessed the most glorious moment of Daning.
After the morning court, Rong Jin discussed some matters with the officials of the Ministry of Industry, and was about to leave the palace to return to the mansion. Before reaching the Suzaku Gate, Fushun chased after him.
"Prince Rong, please stay a little longer, the emperor has an important meeting, and I am waiting for you in the imperial study."
"Then I'll take the first step." When everyone around saw this, they all resigned first.
After Rong Jin went in, Fushun closed the door behind him.
There was only Nangong Jingshen in the room, and she took him to the upper seat and sat down together. There were still a lot of papers on the royal case, and the red cover was a report from the frontier. Rong Jin picked it up and looked at it. Yes, there are winners and losers, but they are advancing step by step in the territory of Beiyuan.
Rong Jin saw that he didn't speak, and guessed that there was nothing important, so she helped him read the booklet together, and added a small batch with a note, so that Nangong Jingshen seemed more convenient. The two cooperated, and the progress was indeed much faster. In an hour, all the important ones were approved.
The two drank tea and had some snacks. Nangong Jingshen asked, "I heard that you left the city with those people from the Ministry of Industry?"
"Well, I went to see the newly built canals and wells."
"Don't be too tired, you're already seven months old, I didn't want you to go to court, but you just don't agree."
"It's not good if you don't show your face all the time." Some people were quite afraid of Rong Wang's mansion, but this time Nangong Jingshen was rewarded heavily. What are you talking about behind your back?
"It's me anyway, what are you afraid of?"
Rong Jin glanced at him with a smile, "It's not good to have you." When it comes to his own affairs, this person is easy to lose his sense of proportion, and sooner or later he will be noticed as abnormal.
Nangong Jing leaned over deeply, Rong Jin leaned back slightly, "There's nothing wrong with me protecting you." Their lips glued together and became tightly entangled.
After the bewildered kiss, both of them were a little out of breath. Rong Jin could clearly see the strong lust in Nangong Jingshen's eyes, and she was in a bad mood. The government is busy these days, and they haven't been together for some time, but this The place is wrong, and it is still broad daylight outside, "Come on at night, come here at night."
"People outside are confidantes, don't worry." Nangong Jingshen's voice was already hoarse, he kissed Rong Jin's temples and cheeks, and unbuttoned Rong Jin's court clothes with one hand.
"Don't, don't be here." Rong Jin's refusal was a bit weak, he was pregnant now, and his body was very sensitive, so he couldn't decisively refuse Nangong Jingshen's courtship.
Fushun reckoned that the emperor and Prince Rong should take a rest after being busy inside for a while, so he came in with some refreshments and fruits. The emperor liked to be quiet, and his footsteps were deliberately light, so there was almost no sound when walking on the carpet at this time. In the silent room, the sound of heavy breathing and body slapping was very clear. Fushun turned the first curtain. After regretting it, he wanted to leave, but he took a sneak peek. From here, the emperor's robes looked neat, but Prince Rong's dark purple court dress was only hanging on the crook of his arm. , with a smooth and slender leg resting on the armrest of the dragon chair, with slightly curved toes, Yubai's body kept leaning back following the emperor's movements.
"Ah..." The bewitching groan came from Prince Rong. Fu Shun trembled, covered his nose and hurried out quietly. If the emperor found out, he would have to castrate him twice.
The sun in the summer afternoon was very bright. Rong Jin woke up, rubbed his forehead and just wanted to get up, the thin brocade quilt slipped off his body, and he was not wearing anything underneath. The scene before going to sleep flooded into his mind. He covered his face and groaned. Before doing it, he couldn't believe it. He and Nangong Jingshen did it in the study room during the day. He did it more than once. The last time he remembered he was lying on the imperial case and was beaten Nangong Jing entered from the back while holding his waist deeply, and later he fell asleep, but where is this?You are clean, you should have taken a shower.
"This is Qingyuan behind the imperial study." Nangong Jing came in from the outside with a deep smile.
"Oh, I've never been here before." Rong Jin tried to act as natural as possible.
"This small garden, except for the maids who clean it, almost no one is allowed to come here on weekdays. I occasionally come here to rest."
"What time is it now? If it's okay, I'll go back first." Seeing a new set of underwear in front of the bed, he stretched out his hand to grab it, his waist was about to break, and seeing Nangong Jingshen approaching, he moved into the bed in fright , alertly said: "What else are you going to do?"
Nangong Jingshen was amused by his frightened look, "I won't do anything, I'll help you wear it."
Rong Jin didn't believe him a little bit, but at this moment she really didn't have the strength to resist. Nangong Jingshen held her like a big baby, put on her inner shirt, tied it with a rope, and helped him put on an outer robe. , quite appropriate.
But without shoes, Nangong Jingshen carried him all the way to the outside room, where Fushun was the only one serving, and the food on the table was still hot.
"It's past noon, eat something first, I have something to discuss with you later."
"what's up?"
"Let's eat first."
Fushun bowed his head to Bucai, and didn't dare to raise his face. There was no other way. When he heard Prince Rong's voice, his face felt like it was on fire. He always remembered the scene in the morning. People pay attention to him.
After dinner, Rong Jin said that she wanted to go to the yard to bask in the sun. It was rare to have such a natural and clean place in the palace, where there were not many traces of artificial carvings. Various plants grew freely, and roses covered the entire wall. The begonias in the corridor are also good. The most wonderful thing is that there is a spring, the thin stream flows in the grass, and there are inch-long fish and tadpoles under the grass. The sun in May is not very hot, but warm Yes, everything feels so comfortable.
Nangong Jingshen was practicing sword at the side. She didn't know what was going on. The sword was impatient and out of standard. , I really wanted to fall asleep immediately, but Nangong Jingshen was so abnormal that he was a little worried, and finally when the man stopped his sword, he tried to open his eyes and asked: "What happened?"
Nangong Jingshen dropped her sword and strode over, squatting beside Rong Jin, holding his hand, and asked softly, "Xiao Jin, shall we get married?"
"En, good." Rong Jin was drowsy, and habitually agreed, and when she realized it, the only bit of drowsiness suddenly flew away, "What did you say?"
Nangong Jing smiled very slyly, "You have agreed. I will immediately make an order to prepare for the wedding."
After listening to Su Weiyang's recitation, Rong Jin laughed so hard that tears came out. With his chubby appearance, he didn't have the heart to go to the street for people to visit. After going to court every day, he would accompany Nangong Jingshen to eat in the palace. He came back to sleep after lunch. He knew that this wave of turbulence would probably last for a while. Living under the eyes of so many people, Mu Hanju could not come and go freely. After all, it was sealed by the first emperor. It's always difficult to explain when people see it.

"Then what are Pearls going to do tonight?" The cook in Ajin's mansion is really unmatched by ordinary people. She can cook any dish at her fingertips, and she can cook a few snacks from all over the place, and they all taste very good.
"Then what does Xiang Su want to eat?" People really don't talk about it, whoever comes, just mentioning pearls, she came.

"I'm almost done, don't drip it on my drawings." Rong Jin put the penholder in his hand against his forehead, preventing him from approaching any further. I really don't know how he pretended to be calm and elegant in front of outsiders.

"There is no way. Later, the emperor sent someone to investigate. All the deficits have been made up, and the embankment has been well built. It is impossible to investigate endlessly for him alone."
Rong Jin understands that things in the officialdom cannot be summed up in black and white.
"Do you mean to recommend him just now?" Su Weiyang asked.
"He is a talented person. The Ministry of Industry is different from others. It needs real talent and hard work, but blindly pedantic can't make a big deal. Let him come another day. Let's see and talk. If possible, I hope he works in the Ministry of Industry. Get some results."
Su Weiyang was silent for a while, and asked: "Ah Jin, do you know the consequences of doing this?" Why was Li You's performance table impounded, because no one dared to help him report this matter, this project is too huge , but the effect is not immediately apparent. No one is willing to take responsibility for political achievements that may take many years to appear. If one of them is not careful, it is easy to be accused of wasting money and wasting money. This crime is not a small one. The head of the Ministry of Industry can bear it.
"Once it succeeds, thousands of miles of fertile fields, abundant food, and great national power, Daning will not be afraid of anyone." This is the country that his parents, Nangong Jingshen and his children will protect in the future.
"Okay, if you decide, I will sign this paper together with you."
Rong Jin smiled and nodded, he knew it would be successful.
"Those are still far away. We can take a long-term plan. Let's talk about it now. During the Chinese New Year, there were a few snowfalls in many places in the north, but there was very little rain in spring. This year's harvest here is still not optimistic. The war in Beiyuan I'm up again." Speaking of water conservancy, Su Weiyang couldn't help but sigh.
Rong Jin pondered, and Nangong Jingshen was also worried about these things. The decree of tax reduction and exemption has been made, but it is not a complete solution after all.
"Your chicken soup is getting cold, drink it quickly, or he will be hungry, and he will make trouble with you later." After seeing A Jin's pregnancy, I realized that the child is really troublesome.
Rong Jin stretched out her hand to take it. After sitting for a long time, she realized that her back was sore when she moved.
"You drink the soup, for the sake of taking you in today, I'll rub a couple of it for you." Su Weiyang rolled up his sleeves, he had done this a few times, and he was quite proficient.
Mo Yunzheng did not expect to see such a scene as soon as he entered the door, Rong Jin was drinking soup with his head down, Su Weiyang was standing behind him rubbing his shoulders, pointing at the paper on the table from time to time, the two were talking in low voice, smiling casually Naturally, there is a tacit understanding that is difficult for others to penetrate.
"Eldest young master?" Xiao Mo, who led him in, saw Mo Yunzheng standing there in a daze, and called out in confusion.
Mo Yunzheng smiled.
Rong Jin and Su Weiyang raised their heads at the same time when they heard the voice, although they were still smiling, Mo Yunzheng knew that there was still a difference.
Rong Jin got up, "Lord Mo, Lord Luo, please come in." The kind-looking young man next to Mo Yunzheng is Luo Jingwen from the Ministry of Finance. He heard Nangong Jingshen mention that he is talented but very slippery. Everything is done well, and Li You's personality is very different, but they are from the same hometown, and they are also Jinshi on the same list.
"My lord, you're welcome." Mo Yunzheng didn't dare to ask him to say hello. Others might not know, but he knew that Rong Jin was pregnant and she was the heir of the emperor, so he couldn't ignore it.
"Su Xiang is here too." Luo Jingwen saluted.
"Why are Luo Shilang and Mr. Mo going together?" Su Weiyang nodded and greeted him. He and Mo Yunzheng had a good relationship, and Luo Jingwen was just a nodding acquaintance.
"We came together when we met on the road." Mo Yunzheng answered this sentence.
Mo Yunzheng knew very well what position this person put himself in. A colleague, at best, was just a friend. After all, he was no match for someone whom his childhood sweetheart had kept in his heart for many years, even if that person no longer belonged to him. What's the use, it's still important to get down to business, "I've already done what my lord told me a few days ago."
Su Weiyang asked from the side: "Since when did the two of you become so familiar?"
Mo Yunzheng smiled unnaturally.
Rong Jin made a rescue, "Master Mo is very knowledgeable. I heard that Mr. Mo has also done a lot of research on the celestial phenomena of water patterns in the past dynasties near the capital, so I asked Mr. Mo to help me."
"If the prince doesn't dislike it, you should call me Yunzheng."
In terms of their identities today, this is okay, but after all, Mo Yunzheng is a few years older than him, and the two families are family friends, and Rong Jin is not easy to trust, "Then in private, I'll call you Brother Mo Bar?"
Mo Yunzheng understood what he meant, and said with a smile, "This is better than Master Mo."
In this way, the relationship between the two has become much closer invisibly.
Rong Jin brought Mo Yunzheng to the book case and told him his plan. He wanted to build some water conservancy projects near the capital this year. "This year's drought, the harvest is not good, and the fields don't need so many people to look after them. , At this time, I am out of corvee and building water conservancy projects, so the common people will be more happy."
"The construction of water conservancy will benefit the people, and they must understand."
"Ah Jin, I suddenly thought of an idea." Su Weiyang said,
"Oh? Tell me." Rong Jin also wanted to know what other good ideas he had.
"It's impossible for everyone to come out of corvee, and it's been a private consensus among everyone to hire people with money, so why don't we just put this kind of thing on the surface, use silver as a substitute for the labor, and let the imperial court uniformly pay for the hiring of people. In this way, the revenue of the national treasury is increased, and secondly, as many people are employed as are needed, so as to avoid blind consumption of manpower, and it is also convenient for those who pay the agency silver.”
Rong Jin nodded, "That's a good idea."
"Hearing Su Xiang talk about this, I also thought of one thing." Luo Jingwen was a low-ranking official. After entering the door and saying hello, he sat and listened to everyone's conversation, and didn't join in. When he suddenly spoke at this moment, the eyes of the other three Throwing at him, seeing his unhurried and unchanging expression, Rong Jin knew that this person might have some skills just because of his calmness, "Some time ago, I saw an excerpt from General Zhenwei Sun Zhiping , proposed to farm in the western frontier."
"I've also read this brochure, what does Luo Shilang want to say?" Su Weiyang asked curiously as it was a rare time for this to happen.
"The lower official wants to say that the five-year tax reduction and exemption for farming in the northwest border can attract refugees to go. Why not divide the tax into states, increase the rich land appropriately, and reduce the wild land in the northwest, northeast, and southwest appropriately, so as to make the landless People who cultivate are willing to go to open up wasteland."
Su Weiyang was secretly surprised, he thought that this Luo Shilang would only climb up through connections, but after hearing what he said, he turned out to be a hidden master.
Looking at the attitudes of the other two people in the room, Rong Jin knew that they also agreed. Luo Jingwen's idea was very good. He didn't know the purpose of Luo Jingwen's coming here today, but these words made him remember this person successfully.
Looking at these people, Rong Jin suddenly had an idea that Daning might be about to usher in a glorious era of prosperity and famous ministers and generals, but history proved that he was right. Lin Jian, who judges cases like a god, Li You, a famous minister of water control, and Luo Jingwen, who later became the prime minister, single-handedly promoted the taxation reform known as the "Luo Family Reform" in later generations, and also achieved Nangong in the battles with Beiyuan and Xiling. Zhiyuan, Sun Zhiping, Shao Mingting, Chen Jing and other famous generals on the battlefield.Together they witnessed the most glorious moment of Daning.
After the morning court, Rong Jin discussed some matters with the officials of the Ministry of Industry, and was about to leave the palace to return to the mansion. Before reaching the Suzaku Gate, Fushun chased after him.
"Prince Rong, please stay a little longer, the emperor has an important meeting, and I am waiting for you in the imperial study."
"Then I'll take the first step." When everyone around saw this, they all resigned first.
After Rong Jin went in, Fushun closed the door behind him.
There was only Nangong Jingshen in the room, and she took him to the upper seat and sat down together. There were still a lot of papers on the royal case, and the red cover was a report from the frontier. Rong Jin picked it up and looked at it. Yes, there are winners and losers, but they are advancing step by step in the territory of Beiyuan.
Rong Jin saw that he didn't speak, and guessed that there was nothing important, so she helped him read the booklet together, and added a small batch with a note, so that Nangong Jingshen seemed more convenient. The two cooperated, and the progress was indeed much faster. In an hour, all the important ones were approved.
The two drank tea and had some snacks. Nangong Jingshen asked, "I heard that you left the city with those people from the Ministry of Industry?"
"Well, I went to see the newly built canals and wells."
"Don't be too tired, you're already seven months old, I didn't want you to go to court, but you just don't agree."
"It's not good if you don't show your face all the time." Some people were quite afraid of Rong Wang's mansion, but this time Nangong Jingshen was rewarded heavily. What are you talking about behind your back?
"It's me anyway, what are you afraid of?"
Rong Jin glanced at him with a smile, "It's not good to have you." When it comes to his own affairs, this person is easy to lose his sense of proportion, and sooner or later he will be noticed as abnormal.
Nangong Jing leaned over deeply, Rong Jin leaned back slightly, "There's nothing wrong with me protecting you." Their lips glued together and became tightly entangled.
After the bewildered kiss, both of them were a little out of breath. Rong Jin could clearly see the strong lust in Nangong Jingshen's eyes, and she was in a bad mood. The government is busy these days, and they haven't been together for some time, but this The place is wrong, and it is still broad daylight outside, "Come on at night, come here at night."
"People outside are confidantes, don't worry." Nangong Jingshen's voice was already hoarse, he kissed Rong Jin's temples and cheeks, and unbuttoned Rong Jin's court clothes with one hand.
"Don't, don't be here." Rong Jin's refusal was a bit weak, he was pregnant now, and his body was very sensitive, so he couldn't decisively refuse Nangong Jingshen's courtship.
Fushun reckoned that the emperor and Prince Rong should take a rest after being busy inside for a while, so he came in with some refreshments and fruits. The emperor liked to be quiet, and his footsteps were deliberately light, so there was almost no sound when walking on the carpet at this time. In the silent room, the sound of heavy breathing and body slapping was very clear. Fushun turned the first curtain. After regretting it, he wanted to leave, but he took a sneak peek. From here, the emperor's robes looked neat, but Prince Rong's dark purple court dress was only hanging on the crook of his arm. , with a smooth and slender leg resting on the armrest of the dragon chair, with slightly curved toes, Yubai's body kept leaning back following the emperor's movements.
"Ah..." The bewitching groan came from Prince Rong. Fu Shun trembled, covered his nose and hurried out quietly. If the emperor found out, he would have to castrate him twice.
The sun in the summer afternoon was very bright. Rong Jin woke up, rubbed his forehead and just wanted to get up, the thin brocade quilt slipped off his body, and he was not wearing anything underneath. The scene before going to sleep flooded into his mind. He covered his face and groaned. Before doing it, he couldn't believe it. He and Nangong Jingshen did it in the study room during the day. He did it more than once. The last time he remembered he was lying on the imperial case and was beaten Nangong Jing entered from the back while holding his waist deeply, and later he fell asleep, but where is this?You are clean, you should have taken a shower.
"This is Qingyuan behind the imperial study." Nangong Jing came in from the outside with a deep smile.
"Oh, I've never been here before." Rong Jin tried to act as natural as possible.
"This small garden, except for the maids who clean it, almost no one is allowed to come here on weekdays. I occasionally come here to rest."
"What time is it now? If it's okay, I'll go back first." Seeing a new set of underwear in front of the bed, he stretched out his hand to grab it, his waist was about to break, and seeing Nangong Jingshen approaching, he moved into the bed in fright , alertly said: "What else are you going to do?"
Nangong Jingshen was amused by his frightened look, "I won't do anything, I'll help you wear it."
Rong Jin didn't believe him a little bit, but at this moment she really didn't have the strength to resist. Nangong Jingshen held her like a big baby, put on her inner shirt, tied it with a rope, and helped him put on an outer robe. , quite appropriate.
But without shoes, Nangong Jingshen carried him all the way to the outside room, where Fushun was the only one serving, and the food on the table was still hot.
"It's past noon, eat something first, I have something to discuss with you later."
"what's up?"
"Let's eat first."
Fushun bowed his head to Bucai, and didn't dare to raise his face. There was no other way. When he heard Prince Rong's voice, his face felt like it was on fire. He always remembered the scene in the morning. People pay attention to him.
After dinner, Rong Jin said that she wanted to go to the yard to bask in the sun. It was rare to have such a natural and clean place in the palace, where there were not many traces of artificial carvings. Various plants grew freely, and roses covered the entire wall. The begonias in the corridor are also good. The most wonderful thing is that there is a spring, the thin stream flows in the grass, and there are inch-long fish and tadpoles under the grass. The sun in May is not very hot, but warm Yes, everything feels so comfortable.
Nangong Jingshen was practicing sword at the side. She didn't know what was going on. The sword was impatient and out of standard. , I really wanted to fall asleep immediately, but Nangong Jingshen was so abnormal that he was a little worried, and finally when the man stopped his sword, he tried to open his eyes and asked: "What happened?"
Nangong Jingshen dropped her sword and strode over, squatting beside Rong Jin, holding his hand, and asked softly, "Xiao Jin, shall we get married?"
"En, good." Rong Jin was drowsy, and habitually agreed, and when she realized it, the only bit of drowsiness suddenly flew away, "What did you say?"
Nangong Jing smiled very slyly, "You have agreed. I will immediately make an order to prepare for the wedding."
