Great Zhou Empress

Xiao Liege naturally found out about the previous affairs very quickly, and made a bad face at Xue Zhijing.

In the evening, she specially brought back the little bow and arrow she used when she was young from the accompanying capital of the Liao Kingdom, and took Xue Mo to play with the little bow and arrow. She also remembered what Xue Zhijing said yesterday, she wanted to try Xue Mo's heart and habits Wu's potential, so I took a very small bow, let Xue Mo feel it.

Xue Mo has only seen the soldiers guarding the city gates with bows and arrows from a distance, but she is so young, but she has never seen anyone shoot arrows. When Xiao Liege demonstrated it to her, she was startled, but still He stood still and did not let himself escape.

Xiao Liege then remembered what Xue Zhijing said yesterday, coaxing the child like how Xue Zhijing coaxed her on weekdays, "It's okay, don't be afraid, this is a bow and arrow, as long as you control the bow and arrow in your own hands, it will won't hurt you."

Xue Mo tried his best to appear calm and nodded seriously.

Xue Zhijing played bow and arrow with the two of them for a while, waiting quietly, and then let the maids take Xue Mo to change clothes and take a bath.

Xiao Liege purposely snorted loudly in front of Xue Zhijing, then pretended to be angry and went to the bedroom.

Xue Zhijing knew Xiao Liege well, knew that she was deliberately expressing her dissatisfaction in front of her, and naturally followed, the two entered the bedroom, Xiao Liege went to the closet to get clothes to change, seeing Xue Zhijing coming over She helped, but she deliberately pushed her away, "I don't need your help, I will do it myself."

Xue Zhijing stubbornly wanted to help, the two argued, but Xiao Liege fell into Xue Zhijing's arms.

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?" Xue Zhijing asked softly.

"You ask knowingly."

Xue Zhijing pretended to think hard, "I really don't know this time, what is my little boy thinking?"

"If you don't think of it, you should think about it carefully, and then go to bed after thinking about it tonight." Xiao Liege said proudly, pouted.

Xue Zhijing looked surprised, but the hand around Xiao Liege's waist tightened even more, "It's so serious! Don't let me go to bed, who is responsible for covering my darling when it's cold at night, and who is responsible for coaxing her when she has a nightmare? "

As soon as he said this, Xiao Liege's face turned a little red, "Who needs a quilt in summer, and I won't have nightmares."

Xue Zhijing recalled, "That day, there was a man who woke up in the middle of the night by his own cry, saying that he had dreamed of a big flying fish coming towards you, and you couldn't hit it no matter how you shot an arrow. Who was it? ?”

Xiao Liege immediately remembered that day, in the middle of the night, she had a strange dream, in the dream, she fought desperately with that big fish flying in the air, shouted until her voice became hoarse, but she still couldn't hit the big fish. Fish, and ended up waking himself up.Xue Zhijing beside her was also awakened by her, knowing that she was having a nightmare, so he smiled and hugged her for a long time.

Thinking about it now, it's so embarrassing.

"Who is that? Not me."

Xue Zhijing smiled and nodded, "Well, it's not you."

Only now did Xiao Liege remember the matter of himself and Xue Zhijing's deliberate smearing before, and he turned a smug face again, and said, "When are you going to find someone from the people to enter the palace?"

Xue Zhijing really saw through Xiao Liege, knowing that even if she was angry, she would not be angry for long, and he could tell all the entanglements in his heart, it was so cute.

If it was something else, she might still tease her a few words, tease her, it would be more interesting to make her jump in anger, but this matter is not necessary, so Xue Zhijing said seriously, "I don't believe me anymore ? My heart and eyes are all about you, how can I pretend to be someone else."

"It has nothing to do with whether you have me in your heart or not. You are the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty and need a blood-related heir, so it is also a plan to find a few men to enter the palace to give birth to you."

When Xiao Liege said this, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, but he said it very seriously, as if after careful consideration, "I am also stupid, how can I believe that an adopted daughter can also be recognized by my courtiers?" , you are almost 25 years old, you have no children of your own, and your Xue family has no one, so it is normal for the ministers to be anxious. Xiao Derui is like this, I have arranged a bunch of women for him."

This is the first time after such a long time, Zhijing Xue felt,

There seems to be an essential gap between myself and the people of this era in the deepest part of the subconscious.

"I'm 25 years old, am I very old? Why are you so anxious about the heir?"

Xiao Liege subconsciously said, "When my brother passed away, he was 30 years old."

Xue Zhijing: "..."

Speaking of this, Xiao Liege suddenly felt something was wrong, what do you mean, is she cursing Xue Zhijing?She became anxious immediately, and hurriedly apologized to Xue Zhijing, "Jing, I didn't mean that, don't think about it, I'm not cursing you, I wish you could live a long life, and I can be with you forever."

Xue Zhijing was indeed stunned for a while, and then suddenly thought of a question.

It's a matter of life expectancy.

In ancient society, people's life expectancy was about 50 years old, and the people who became emperors, unless a few were in good health, most of them were due to years of hard work, extreme anxiety, or too much thinking and very little Physical exercise, and life expectancy is extremely low.

Therefore, when an emperor came to the throne, he had to build a mausoleum non-stop, and quickly determine an heir, because, no one knew, the emperor would die suddenly one day.

Why does it sound so sad.

Xue Zhijing smiled and comforted, "It's okay, you don't need to apologize, I know what you mean. I didn't think that, from the point of view of the courtiers, I was like a gentleman standing under a dangerous wall, no Knowing when the crisis will come, there will be turmoil in the court."

Xiao Liege leaned himself on Xue Zhijing's shoulder, hugged Xue Zhijing's waist tightly, and said softly, "I didn't mean to talk to you like that, I just think that you should listen to the advice of the ministers , It’s just a man who is used to give birth to a child, that’s all I arranged for Xiao Derui myself. But when I think about it, I will still be sore, and I feel annoyed, and I can’t help but hate it.”

Xue Zhijing touched the back of her head and comforted her, "I know, your mind is like an open book, you can tell it at a glance."

"Is it so easy to see through?" Xiao Liege almost buried himself into Xue Zhijing's neck, as if he would not be seen through, "Personally, I think I am quite powerful."

"Ha!" Xue Zhijing laughed, "Yes, very powerful."

"Xue Zhijing!" Xiao Liege clearly felt that Xue Zhijing was joking when he said this.

"When my little boy was governing the country, he was very smart, knew what to do and what not to do, and was sensible enough. In the eyes of your nobles and courtiers in the Liao Kingdom, you are a stable and upright person."

Xiao Liege finally raised his head from her neck and smiled triumphantly.

"However, to me, you are just a little cutie."

"..."

Talking about the previous things again, Xue Zhijing felt that he should let Xiao Liege agree with her, every time he thought wildly, he would feel very insecure after a long time.

"You arranged so many women to have children for Xiao Derui. Actually, I don't agree with it. In my opinion, even an emperor should have the consciousness of being a couple for life. But, after all, he is your nephew, and he is both of you." The emperor of the Liao Kingdom, I can't say anything."

When she said this, Xue Zhijing's eyes had a different kind of tenderness. She stroked Xiao Liege's eyebrows with her fingertips, and said softly, "Have you forgotten? On the day I left Liao Kingdom, you chased me to In a cave, after we delivered each other, I left you a word."

How could Xiao Liege forget? Although hatred had the upper hand at the time, the memory was even more profound.

"You say you love me, and your body and mind will always belong to me."

"Baby has a really good memory!" Xue Zhijing scratched her nose, "You know, I've always been a person who keeps promises."

Xiao Liege took a deep breath, why would he always be moved by Xue Zhijing after being together for so long.

Xue Zhijing had a new plan, so he told Xiao Liege that Xiao Liege agreed with a little worry, saying that she would fully cooperate with Xue Zhijing in whatever he did.

The next day, Xue Zhijing was very early in the morning

, then passed the news that Li Jing entered the palace.

Li Jing has been very busy recently, and Xue Zhijing had arranged for her a task to carry out the six reforms of the imperial court.With the current development of Dazhou, it is not appropriate to divide the highest department into six. It is necessary to split the functions of some departments, and at the same time raise the level of some functional parts of the lower levels.

Xue Zhijing's plan is that after the formation of a new department, the cabinet will be composed of ministers from different departments to replace the functions of the existing Military Aircraft Department, and Li Jing will be the first cabinet prime minister.

Li Jing was a little shocked when she heard Xue Zhijing's new mission.

"Your Majesty, do you really want to do so much fanfare?"

Xue Zhijing sighed and said, "I didn't think it was necessary before, but now it doesn't seem to be possible. The whole Wanuo City knows that I am with Princess Liaohuo of the Liao Kingdom, but no one takes it seriously. I'm not the emperor of the Great Zhou, but what Duke Zhou said, it's nothing, I just shut the door and live my own life, but I'm sitting in this position, there are countless people staring at you, and the business must be justified. I now, It’s just to have such a legitimate name.”

Li Jing sighed, knowing that their majesty was always a person who made decisions before acting, and would not act lightly, since it was decided, it must be done.

Therefore, she complied and helped Xue Zhijing complete the plan.

A few days later in the afternoon, Li Jing submitted an eloquent article to Xue Zhijing, and talked about it in the hall of the afternoon.

"My Great Zhou and the Liao Kingdom belong to the great country of Shenzhou. Now that all nations are returning, my Great Zhou and the Liao Kingdom should work together to be a model for all countries. Your Majesty, I respectfully request that my Great Zhou and the Liao Kingdom form an alliance and sign an alliance." The treaty opens the border between the two countries and promotes the economic and cultural exchanges between the two countries. At the same time, I implore Your Majesty to make a letter to the alliance between the two countries in the form of peace. Liao Kingdom Liao Princess Xiao Liegehui is the most suitable person for peace. Your Majesty, please send a marriage letter to the Liao Kingdom, and make Princess Liehuo of the Liao Kingdom my Queen of the Great Zhou."

Suddenly, Manchu was shocked.

Xue Zhijing's lips curled into a smile, "Sure!"
