messy

Jin Yuchen didn't say a word to Helian Mingzhu all the way, and Helian Mingzhu didn't feel that the atmosphere in the carriage was wrong. She thought it would be like this all the way to Daliang, but Helian Mingzhu's sudden words made her stop breathing for a long time.

"Do you know what it is to be a pet servant?" Helian Mingzhu started the topic with a smile, seeming to be very interested in chatting, "Don't tell me you don't know, or I will throw you into a group of men when you get to Daliang You don’t even know what a pet is, so you are not qualified to sleep in a good place.”

Helian Mingzhu is definitely not joking with himself. Jin Yuchen looked at her face, although she smiled as usual in peace, but Helian Mingzhu is a strong and willful person, and will not tolerate the other party's kindness to him many times of resistance.

Jin Yuchen nodded: "Of course I know this, and it's not like I haven't seen it before." Isn't it just for the personal servants around him who take care of daily life?

"Hehe..." Helian Mingzhu laughed, "You make me very curious. I checked your deeds and found that you are quite smart. Otherwise, it would be impossible to live in the palace for so long and kill you so much." Duo brothers. I was thinking, did you want the throne from the moment you were born? You did not hesitate to hide the fact that you are a woman."

Jin Yuchen replied flatly: "I just want to live, I haven't thought about it that much." She didn't want to tell Helian Mingzhu too much about personal matters, she thought it was unnecessary, Helian Mingzhu took herself back to Daliang, maybe Not only wanting a hostage who is an alliance between the two parties, she has other purposes.

"You must be wondering what is the purpose of me bringing you back to Daliang," Helian Mingzhu said in her heart, "Why do you think so much? What do you think you will be useful to me? It is right for me to bring you back. Daliang didn't help at all, and as for the position you want to regain Anqing, as I said, you can get what you want by pleasing me."

Jin Yuchen closed her eyes with some heaviness. She really couldn't think of why Helian Mingzhu would bring back a useless self back to Daliang. Before, Jin Yuchen guessed whether it was because Helian Mingzhu didn't know that she was a woman, so she looked at it. But from Helian Mingzhu's tone of voice, she already knew that she was a woman's business.

So what exactly is Helian Pearl trying to do now?

"Can't you have a different expression and reaction when you are facing me?" Helian Mingzhu couldn't help being a little annoyed when she saw her eyes closed and unwilling to speak, "I really can't talk about anything anymore. ?”

Jin Yuchen opened his eyes and looked at her: "What do you want to hear from me?"

Helian Mingzhu choked, flustered for a moment, and then said seriously: "How do you and your wife usually communicate?"

Jin Yuchen raised his eyebrows: "Why are you asking this?"

"It's nothing." Helian Mingzhu replied angrily, Jin Yuchen is a smart person no matter what, why is he so dull at this time?

Jin Yuchen felt that Helian Mingzhu seemed to be angry, and remembered what Helian Mingzhu said that if you want to get what you want, you have to please her. He felt that he could not treat the other party so perfunctorily, so he changed the subject and said: "I heard that Daliang is cold all the year round, now that I am in your Daliang, will I be unbearable?"

Helian Mingzhu also thought about it, and said: "You don't have to worry about this. I will send someone to buy a coat for you when you arrive in Daliang. Because of the terrain, Daliang is very cold most of the time, and there are seldom warm days. But it is not so cold all year round. It will be warm for a long time in the hot season, but not too long. Every household must prepare a lot of coal for burning. Sometimes the national treasury will distribute it regularly and quantitatively to the poor who cannot afford coal, especially The period will also lower the price of coal."

Jin Yuchen nodded in agreement: "This is a good idea. Doing so can prevent the citizens from inciting conflicts with the court. No wonder Daliang's army is so brave and loyal. It turns out that it is a gift from the people to repay the court. But There is a big problem, which is related to the export of armaments in Daliang."

"You have also noticed that the shortage of materials in Daliang is not a hidden thing. No matter how strong Daliang develops in these years, the surrounding countries are not in a hurry. They are sure that Daliang cannot fight a protracted war, so they are confident." Helian Mingzhu said with a sigh, "If it's really only these problems, I won't go around trying to expand the territory of Daliang. You know that if the imperial court opens up the distribution of coal without a bottom line, it will be like throwing money into a bottomless pit for the imperial court. , the interior of the girder will be consumed sooner or later."

Jin Yuchen saw Helian Mingzhu showing a distressed expression that she had never seen before, and knew that this princess was not arrogant and domineering as he imagined. As a woman, all she could think about was what to do. My country is good, how can I seek happiness for my people? From a certain point of view, Daliang's government is better than Anqing's too much. Anqing is asking the people without a bottom line, but Daliang is just giving to the people without a bottom line. She is a little curious about Daliang What are the customs and government of this country like?

"You don't need to worry too much. When you get to Daliang, take me to the prefectures and counties in Daliang. Maybe I can find a way to help you." Jin Yuchen said.

After hearing her say this, Helian Mingzhu was very happy: "Are you willing to help me?"

Jin Yuchen glanced at her: "Didn't I say that only by pleasing you can I get what I want? I hope you will not forget this sentence."

Could it be that this guy naively thought that he would kindly help them solve their food and clothing problems?

But Helian Mingzhu was still not disappointed, but nodded: "If you do well, I will give you whatever you want."

Jin Yuchen looked at her suspiciously: "Really? What will you give me?"

Helian Mingzhu narrowed her eyes: "It depends on your performance."

"Hmph," Jin Yuchen sneered, "I hope you, princess, won't be a person who breaks your promise.

"Of course, once the princess has said a word, it's hard to follow her."

Shen Qing don't go back home, Zhen'an Palace has been sealed, she asked Pei Yuanjin to meet at Baohe Building, ordered a good meal on the table, but did not wait for anyone to come, she ate first, although there was no one around There was no one accompanying him, but people from Shen Xiangguo could be seen in various places outside Baohe Building.

"The princess is so rude, she didn't even wait for the official to come, she just ate on her own." Pei Yuanjin arrived, and stood by the side of the table with a smile on his face.

Shen Qing don't look at the dishes on the plate, and replied casually: "I only said that I asked you to discuss business matters, I didn't say invite you to dinner."

Pei Yuanjin smiled even more: "Then why did the princess put an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks?"

Shen Qingbie put a piece of meat in another empty bowl, and replied: "This belongs to the prince. I didn't ask you to come here to tell you these things. I want a list in your hand, from the Jiangnan area."

"She told you all?" Pei Yuanjin didn't seem surprised at all, and then sat on the chair opposite Shen Qingbie, "I really shouldn't just show her my secrets like that."

"Since they are all sensible people, I won't beat around the bush. I need to know everyone on that list and the people you can use now. You should know that if you hide something from me, I won't let you It's easy." Shen Qing don't pick up the vegetables, chewing carefully, "Master Pei can have more contact with me in the future, after all, I'm a woman without a husband now."

"Do you want to act in a bitter drama? Then I'm at a loss. You two asked me to do such a shameful thing. Anyway, I was unlucky in the end." Pei Yuanjin knew Shen Qing's meaning, Now it is Laibaohelou, maybe in a few days we will go to play together in a sedan chair.

"That can't completely dispel Jin Xuefan's suspicion of us, and I won't act too seriously with you, I just can find an excuse to talk, and when I get caught by someone, I can also use the matter of men and women to prevaricate After all, if you can hide it for a while, it will be for a while. If you really can't hide it, just stand in line openly. If Jin Xuefan is capable, don't we still have the Northwest Army here?" Shen Qingbie said in a cold tone. , without a trace of emotion, not to mention the false politeness towards outsiders in the weekdays, it is completely in a bad mood.

Pei Yuanjin sighed and said: "It seems that you and General Fu have a really good relationship. Fu Bai has been promoted again. General Lin solemnly asked the emperor that he would not let Fu Bai be the general of the Northwest Army, and he would not accept all the gifts from the emperor. , going to the court every day to chat about this matter, Lin Zhen is a veteran minister, and he has devoted himself to Anqing all these years, no one does not respect him, the emperor has no choice but to let Fu Bai control the power of the Northwest, coupled with the long-term recruitment of the Northwest Army, has already There are many formations, and if Fu Bai trains them out, they can be on an equal footing with the Northern and Southern Army, or even superior to them. Lin Zhen has been in the Northern and Southern Army for many years, and has many confidantes. They all abandoned Gao Hu and transferred to the Northwest Army. "

"Jin Xuefan feels that he has a sure chance of winning, so he doesn't care about the Fu family and supports Gao Hu wholeheartedly. Now that the Fu family has risen, he doesn't want to be ashamed to beg for reconciliation, and is still suppressing him in the court, no matter how big-hearted Fu Shiguo is. , and it is impossible to stand on Jin Xuefan's side." Shen Qing didn't pull out a smile, but he was extremely indifferent and disdainful, "He is a high-ranking and powerful person now, and he is still poisoning the emperor's food. Waiting to be the emperor, we let him have fun, and we will ask General Fu to go out for fun someday."

"The princess, why bother to talk so much? As far as you and General Fu are concerned, the officials still know. It's no longer a suspense on which side the Fu family is on. I have to say that the princess and the prince are really getting more and more like each other. Use any means to achieve the goal, no matter who will be hurt." Pei Yuanjin cupped his hands and saluted, "I thought that I would die if I followed the princess, but now it seems that the servant is too worried, and the princess is very cruel. .”

Shen Qingbie poured a glass of wine for the empty seat beside her, and finally showed a rare smile: "My husband has been away for a long time, and he must come back one day. A wife has to take care of the house to make him happy, isn't it?"
