Concubine Xi didn't give her son and little companion another chance to evade, she turned around expectantly, ran behind the palace gate of Nansan Institute, hid behind the wall and poked her head out: "Is this okay?"

Now it's all right, the ignorant and rebellious cub will be forced to make a fool of himself in front of his mother and concubine.

Xue Yao secretly squinted at Lu Qian's expression, and found that Lu Qian was also staring at him.

Xue Yao took this gaze as a proof that Lu Qian was still attached to him. When he was a child, His Highness was mischievous with others, and he would look at Xue Yao helplessly like this.

Xue Yao had to do something for this long-lost attachment. Although there was no way to show concubine Xi's superb swordsmanship instead of the little fat boy, he still turned his toes and walked over following the little fat boy's needy gaze.

Lu Qian didn't put on a defensive state of repulsion like the previous two days. When Xue Yao couldn't wait to walk over, he raised his hand and grabbed Xue Yao's outstretched hand, bowed his head and whispered in his ear: "Use that hidden weapon, Wherever the sword points, you will strike."

It turned out that he wanted him to use hidden weapons to cooperate with Concubine Xi.

Xue Yao nodded, grabbed the delicate little brass hidden weapon in his hand, and walked in the direction where Concubine Xi was avoiding.

Looking back at Lu Qian halfway, he found that Lu Qian turned his toes in his direction, watching him helplessly as he walked away.

Xue Yao was summoned by Lu Qian's helpless eyes, so he turned around and walked back, raised his hand and patted the little chubby boy's head to coax him: "Don't be afraid, Your Highness used to be not bad at swordsmanship, the empress won't see anything."

Seeing him walking back, Lu Qian leaned into his ear again and reminded his little companion to read: "If you are far away and you can't shoot, just stand behind the master."

Xue Yao: "..."

That's right, he should have thought about the distance and direction, because the rebellious cub's neglect two days ago and today's sudden warming up made him dizzy.

So Xue Yao stepped back to the base of the wall, standing a dozen steps away from Lu Qian.

"Is it enough to stand so far away? You won't be accidentally injured?" The sixth child asked expectantly.

Xue Yao nodded: "Your Highness said that he will restrain his sword energy."

"Then let's stand here and watch." The fifth child turned around and told Concubine Xi the good news that the seventh brother was going to restrain his strength.

So Concubine Xi also walked back quickly, protected by three boys.

Lu Qian held the hilt of the long sword handed by the attendant, and slowly drew the sword out of its sheath lazily.

"Good! Good!" The fifth brother Bibiji immediately applauded and cheered!

"Beautiful!" Although the sixth brother Nuanbao didn't realize the beauty of the seventh brother drawing a sword, the fifth brother must be right.

"???" Concubine Xi clapped along with the two brothers blankly.

Lu Qian lazily danced a sword flower, "Look, mother concubine," he raised his finger to a piece of Ruyi pattern relief facing him on the opposite palace wall.

"I saw it! I saw it!" Concubine Xi looked forward to it.

Lu Qian danced a sword move, and when he noticed from the corner of his eye that the concubine's eyes had been drawn to him, he immediately gave his little companion a sharp wink.

Xue Yao nodded vigilantly and secretly pointed the copper tube launch port at the relief that His Highness had just designated, preparing to create the illusion that the sword energy smashed the relief.

The moment Lu Qian's sword tip pointed at the relief, Xue Yao fired a stone bullet, and the cooperation was quite tacit.

The relief His Highness pointed out was not damaged at all, but another relief three inches away from that relief was cracked by the "Sword Qi"...

Xue Yao was wrong!

The scene fell into an unexplainable embarrassment.

Lu Qian still maintained the posture of pointing the sword to the nine heavens, hesitating for a while, then suddenly turned around, put the sword into the sheath, turned around and told the concubine mother with unfathomable eyes: "This sword technique is called hitting east and west."

Xue Yao, who was knocked wrong, immediately stepped forward to make up for the mistake, and boasted to Concubine Xi: "This move is powerful. The opponent thought we were going to attack others, so he was defenseless, but the sword energy has already hit the opponent's vital point!"

"Wonderful!" Nuan Bao's sixth child applauded Xue Yao's sophistry without hesitation!

"It's really special for three days." The fifth child was probably really fooled.

"I thought you beat it crookedly." Concubine Xi muttered honestly, "Why didn't you let me see the relief that was about to be beaten?"

"That way, how can I let the empress realize the amazingness of this move!" Xue Yao stepped forward to hug Lu Qian, and said to Concubine Xi: "Your Highness wants the empress to see clearly, so I can only choose this move with less lethality. , if there are no surprises, how can the empress see His Highness's amazing progress over the past year?!"

Concubine Xi looked at her son suspiciously.

Lu Qian immediately pursed his lips and smiled inscrutablely, nodding in agreement with what the little companion read.

"Okay." Concubine Xi said, "Next time, I will change to another place. I will sit on the tower and watch you display your true skills."

Lu Qian avoided his gaze, bowed his head and said perfunctorily, "Well... next time, next time."

Xue Yao smiled and nodded in agreement: "Next time, next time..."

Everyone knows that there will be no date after this next time.

With concubine Xi in charge, Lu Qian dared not ask to be alone in person.

Xue Yao also took this opportunity to stay at the South Third Institute, and he stayed by Lu Qian's side for a moment.

Of course, Concubine Xi also found that her son was much more withdrawn than before, as if she had returned to her childhood a long time ago, when Xue Yao hadn't appeared yet.

As a mother without a foundation in modern psychology, Concubine Xi did not considerately slowly dig out her son's knots, but asked her son to explain why she was avoiding everyone recently.

Lu Qian said that he did not hide.

Concubine Xi said that even his elder brother had come to ask her to ask about the situation.Why doesn't my son even want to see his dearest friend and elder brother?

In fact, part of the reason was that Lu Jinan and Lu Qian mentioned the matter of ascending the throne according to the will.

The two brothers disagreed on this matter.

Lu Qian believes that the temporary crown prince mentioned in the will was only established when the eldest brother disappeared. Now that the eldest brother is well in the palace, there is no reason to ask himself to be the emperor.

Lu Jinan used his father's advice before his death as an excuse, saying that the seventh younger brother is the emperor's talent that his father favored, and the mistakes he made gave the Tong family an opportunity to take advantage of it. Praise, naturally the seventh younger brother's ascension to the throne is the most convincing.

Lu Qian, who has been traveling abroad for more than a year, never expected that after the civil strife was quelled, his eldest brother would actually want to blame himself.

Hearing Lu Qian say these things, Concubine Xi and the elders and elders were very surprised. No one thought that after the collapse of the Tong family, the prince would still refuse to ascend the throne.

And forcing the seventh to succeed to the throne, in the eyes of Concubine Xi and the fifth and sixth, is simply nonsense. What will happen to Lu Qian as the emperor?Do you hold a pot of milk in your hand when you go to court, and listen to the minister's performance while drinking?

Moreover, Lao Qi is very afraid of trouble, and if he can't finish approving the memorials, he will probably start to pretend to be dead. In less than half a year, the accumulated government affairs to be done will be able to circle the palace ten times!

Regarding this, Xue Yao is not so pessimistic. After all, he has seen King Ning's wise and efficient handling of affairs after he ascended the throne in his last life, and now the little fat boy has somehow the temperament of King Ning. Even if he really becomes the emperor, he should not be mistaken country.

Even though he said so, Xue Yao didn't want Fat Cub to be the emperor.

It is impossible to be a good emperor without hard work.

If the prince didn't keep it, then the little fat boy could only bite the bullet. Now that the prince is alive and well, why should his little fat boy work hard?

In short, the Fat Cub's family, including the old father Xue Yao, may be unprecedented in their dislike of the throne.

For this reason, after eating, Xue Yao bid farewell to his cubs, and ran to Lu Jinan aggressively to argue.

This throne cannot be lost to his cub!When you are a big brother, you should act like a big brother and take the initiative to take responsibility!

Lu Jinan has also begun to doubt his life these days.

For more than a year, he has been fighting for power and profit with the forces behind the third brother.

Now the third brother's gang has finally collapsed.

He wanted the seventh younger brother to inherit the throne according to his father's wishes, but the seventh younger brother shook his face and refused to see him.

Forget it, the second younger brother, who is sitting on the throne now, has no sense of crisis, and now urges him, the eldest brother, to take over the throne every day, and he wants to go back to the monastery to enlighten, saying that it has been delayed for too long...

What is this?

Is Daqi's country so disliked by his brothers?

Lu Jin'an has taken the country and the country as his own responsibility since he was a child. Several cabinet ministers are his masters, and his staff are also patriots with lofty aspirations.

He was often ordered to go out of Beijing, traveling north and south, and saw the suffering of the people and the ills of the government.Therefore, the position of the Son of Heaven carries all his ideals and ambitions.

"Song History Shihuo Zhi" has a saying: "Taiping has been long, and the household registration has increased every year. The number of soldiers has increased, and the number of officials has increased..."

It's about Daqi's current situation.

Now Daqi has been stable for more than 300 years, and the population has quadrupled compared to when Taizu proclaimed himself emperor. Both the army and the imperial court keep a bunch of idlers eating public meals. The prince believed that the reform must be implemented.

But his father's dissuasion before his death made him unable to understand that if he ascended the throne and had absolute power, he would not be able to control his ambitions, so he also wanted to use the attitude of the seventh brother who had nothing to do with himself , Let yourself calm down, let my younger brother use real power to check, so as to curb my impulse.

Unexpectedly, even Xue Yao came to him today to beg him not to force the seventh brother to ascend the throne, the reason being that the seventh brother is too young to do anything.

If nothing else happened, how could the five feudal lords be fooled into coming to Beijing to help?

If nothing happened, how could the secret alliance ministers pretend to defect?

Lu Jinan had a conversation with Lu Qian two days ago, and he deliberately took out his manuscript of the reform and asked his brother to give his opinion.

At that time, Lu Qian didn't know that his brother wanted to take the blame for the throne to himself, so he read the manuscript very carefully, and told his elder brother honestly: "This method is not feasible."

Fortunately, Lu Jinan had long been used to his brother's blunt speaking style, so he didn't get annoyed, and patiently asked why it was not feasible.

Unexpectedly, the younger brother actually uttered a sentence similar to that of his father before he died-never use power to interfere with private transactions.

Lu Jin'an said that it is an unfair transaction for ordinary people to be exploited by rich households at high profits. Once a natural disaster occurs, they can only use their land to pay off their debts and lose their foundation.

However, Lu Qian said that regardless of fairness or unfairness, this is a free transaction, and there is also competition among wealthy households. Farmers have calculated their gains and losses before borrowing. Both parties have at least equal legal protection when trading. People trade, fundamentally lost equal rights.

Natural disasters are accidental events. If you want to reduce the losses caused by accidents to farmers, the new law can specify policies related to special disasters. In such occasional cases, you can legislate to protect farmers’ fields, but they cannot replace wealthy households to lend to farmers.

Lu Jin'an asked: "Are you afraid that the supervision of the new law warehouse department is not enough, and officials use their power to suppress wealthy households? I have thought about this before. This warehouse department is independent of all departments and is directly supervised by me. There is no need to go from the local to the higher level. Layer clearing."

Supervision is useless. Lu Qian believes that the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and it is too easy to cheat on the books. Taking a step back, even if you can supervise a few officials, can you supervise the common people?

After more than a year of wandering among the people, Lu Qian discovered that the disadvantages of corruption and fraud not only appeared in the court, but also among the common people.

Most of the people in Daqi are used to taking advantage of the loopholes, going to a private school, the poor and the rich are scrambling to secretly give money to their masters, trying to make their own family take advantage of what others don't have.

Most people want unfairness in their bones, who will supervise it?Does supervision work?

Lu Jinan frowned, saying that, corruption and fraud will never be eradicated.

Lu Qian said that it cannot be eradicated, but it can be reduced. If the granaries are real, you will know the etiquette, and if you have enough food and clothing, you will know the honor and disgrace. Awareness of fairness and justice will naturally increase.

This day's conversation did not reach a mutually agreed conclusion, but it still made Lu Jinan look at his brother with admiration.

He thinks that Lu Qian is not as stupid as he appears on the surface, at least he has a good grasp of the general direction and can indeed check for him, so he finally proposed to Lu Qian to ascend the throne.

Then my younger brother fled back to Nansan Institute with lightness kung fu, and his shoes flew away.

"Seventh brother has this ability, you are confused by his appearance." Lu Jinan dismissed Xue Yao's objection.

Xue Yao said anxiously: "Even if His Highness has the ability in this area, his character is not suitable to be a king. You know him well. If the government affairs are busy..."

"The general government affairs cabinet can share the burden for him." Lu Jinan stared at Xue Yao with no rebuttal: "Besides, this is what the emperor meant."

Xue Yao returned in vain, and unknowingly came to the South Third Institute with a cheeky face, and went in to find the little fat boy despite the eunuch's obstruction.

Reason told him that he should remain in awe of the current Lu Qian, but his instinct made him think of the little fat boy, and his mind went blank, and he just wanted to pinch the little fat boy's face to relieve anxiety.

When he broke into the side hall recklessly like this, Xue Yao found that there was no one there.

Walking into the back room, I saw a pile of luggage on the table of Little Eight Immortals, and there was a half-packed luggage with things exposed, all of which were canned honey and sweet cakes.

Xue Yao guessed the little fat cub's plot in an instant.

This guy is definitely planning to "run away with honey", he doesn't want to be the emperor, he wants to hide from the limelight, no wonder he has to let people in!

"Discovered?" Lu Qian's playful voice came from behind.

Xue Yao shivered, turned around, and saw Lu Qian staring at him with slightly squinted eyes.

In the quiet side hall, only Xue Yao's heartbeat was left.

After only a moment of hesitation, Xue Yao turned around pretending to be calm, walked to the table of the Eight Immortals, packed the unpacked package of the little fat cub, tied a delicate knot, and calmly raised his head and asked Lu Qian: "Now Where are we going?"

Xue Yao has been forced into Lu Qian's conspiracy and can only choose to expose or join in. As a companion, he decided to join in on his own initiative.

Lu Qian should appreciate such a good defection attitude, and accept the word "we", and take him out of the palace together to avoid this storm of enthronement. It is best to visit Juggernaut again and ask him to forgive the stimulated cub's rebellious period .

This is the deep meaning of Xue Yao's witty saying "where are we going".

Lu Qian also grasped this point, tilted his head and asked his little companion in doubt: "Us?"

The author has something to say:

Of course it is "us", the two-person world with Bald Rabbit
