Are you full, sweetie?

Yunze woke up naturally the next day after falling asleep.

The curtains had already been hung up, because there was no incense in the room because it was getting hotter, and Zhong Xing didn't like the smoky room in spring and summer.

Now that the cherries were ripe, the servant girl in the mansion put many cherries everywhere to add fragrance to the room, and put a lot of jasmine in the vase, Yunze could smell the refreshing and refreshing fragrance of flowers and fruits when he woke up.

He took the water from the maidservant and washed himself: "What time is it?"

"Just in the middle of the corner." Qiu Xin brought Yunze's clothes, "Breakfast is ready."

Yunze woke up today without much appetite, he ate a bowl of bird's nest porridge and went to the study.

With his back turned to him, Zhong Xing was looking at a map on the wall. This was the territory of the Qi Dynasty. It not only marked the ten states of the Qi Dynasty, but also marked out the surrounding tribes and countries.

Before Yunze came to Qi Dynasty, he was familiar with the world map, but after he came, he found that this place was different from his time, and the provinces Yunze knew well could not be included in this map.

Yunze walked over: "The king of the county."

Zhong Xing heard footsteps, but he didn't turn his head: "Did you get enough sleep?"

Yunze said "hmm": "I feel a little tired after coming back, and I am extremely sleepy. What is the king thinking?"

Zhong Xingdao: "Liaozhou is already trying to implement the new tax system. Although there are voices of opposition, they have been suppressed. Other states and counties will also try it one after another."

Yunze has learned about the new series of policies issued by the imperial court, which are good policies for the country and the people—if the people below can really implement them according to the regent's wishes.

Yunze can see that the regent's vision is not short-sighted, he is not only chasing a simple throne and a few short decades of wealth, but also a solid political power, or——

Zhong Xing pointed to some tribes in the south: "These areas will be included in the territory of the Qi Dynasty within eight years."

The regent may want to come to the court from all over the world, and the surrounding countries dare not abuse the territory and people of the Qi Dynasty, so that all the small countries and tribes around him will be afraid of him.

Yun Ze said: "Yue Wang Meng Biao is not a good person. Last year I heard that he conquered other surrounding tribes. Although these tribes in the southwest are backward, they are numerous and powerful, and they are a big threat to the Qi Dynasty. The internal disasters of the Qi Dynasty are not necessarily If it can be resolved within eight years, how can we allocate energy to deal with them?"

Zhong Xing looked back: "Oh? You know Meng Biao? When you were not in Mingdu, he often asked people to inquire about you."

Yun Ze was stunned for a moment.

He didn't know each other, the two had never spoken to each other, and Yunze had only met Meng Biao twice, probably Meng Biao didn't even remember him.

"I don't know about this." Yun Ze said, "He probably doesn't recognize me, the Duke is sure he is looking for me, not Yun Yang?"

Zhong Xing said: "Maybe I heard wrong."

"You must have heard it wrong." Yun Ze said, "He has been here for a long time, should he be leaving?"

Zhong Xing shook his head: "No, he has a lot of plans. His subordinates bought a large number of military books and classics in Mingdu, and learned various skills of the Qi Dynasty. The emperor gave him a lot of convenience in order to win him over."

Yun Ze frowned.

Compared to the regent, perhaps Meng Biao was the threat to the Qi Dynasty.

There is a saying that people who are not of our race must have a different heart.Meng Biao is a foreigner, and he has really become a disaster. In the future, he will lead troops to the north and slaughter a large number of Qi Dynasty civilians. After taking power, he will even enslave the Qi Dynasty people.

Although the lineage of Liaozhou and the royal family are very weak, they all have the surname Zhong after all, and the country will still be controlled by people surnamed Zhong in the future.The power of the aristocratic family may be weakened, and the status of the clan may decline, but as long as they do not act as demons, they will not be massacred by the regent for no reason. Although the regent is cruel and indifferent, he is not a maddened and stupid person.

As long as the emperor has a clear understanding of his own abilities, or sees Meng Biao's essence clearly with sharp eyes, he should not open the door to Meng Biao.

The regent wanted the throne, didn't Meng Biao not?Let Meng Biao easily take away all the hard work and achievements of the country, the emperor is really stupid.

Yun Ze said: "We can't let Meng Biao and his group bring Qi Chao's things back to Yue Yan's tribe."

Gold, silver and jewelry can be brought, but priceless treasures such as classics and artisans cannot be brought.

Zhong Xing looked at Yunze: "Oh? What's your opinion, young master?"

Yunze shook his head: "I don't have any opinion. Meng Biao cannot be killed. Once he is killed, the tribes in the southwest will surely raise troops and go north. At that time, the imperial court will be powerless to deal with it. The current plan is probably to send people to secretly kill him on the way back. Burn the books they brought with them."

Zhong Xing was much more cruel than Yunze, many things that Yunze didn't dare to think about were things that Zhong Xing had been doing for a long time.

Zhong Xing said: "How is your calligraphy practiced? Is it a lot rusty?"

Yunze practiced calligraphy all morning in the study.

There was a plate of cherries not far from the desk. This was a new tribute this year. It was bright red in color, thin in skin and thick in flesh. frowned.

Zhong Xingdao: "These are used to smoke the house. They have a strong aroma and a bright appearance, but the taste is not very good."

Yunze took a sip of tea, then Wei Wei sat in the same place for a while.

A servant came over: "Your Highness, please see An Lehou."

An Lehou looked for Yunze many times during this period, and Zhong Xing was already a little bored: "No see."

During this month, the emperor married Princess Yuanxiang to Yunyang out of guilt.

Princess Yuanxiang has a noble status and a stable and decent personality. An Lehou is satisfied with this daughter-in-law.Although Yunyang's official career is completely useless now, it's good to be a son-in-law An'an.

Unexpectedly, relying on Princess Yuanxiang's good temper, Yunyang brought his people back home in an open and honest manner.

It was a good thing that the one brought back was a woman, but it happened to be a bitter and mean boy.The young man knew that Princess Yuanxiang had not slept with Yun Yangyuan, although he did not dare to contradict the princess, he flaunted his favor every day in words.

The day before yesterday, Princess Yuanxiang packed her things and went back to her princess mansion.

An Lehou wanted to beat and scold Yun Yang, but Yun Yang seemed to have changed completely after being dismissed from office. Instead, he ridiculed An Lehou and made An Lehou very angry.

An Lehou couldn't take it anymore, he had to write a letter to the emperor, asking the emperor to abolish Yunyang, the prince. He knew that the emperor would definitely not want to do this, so he asked the regent to do it.

In addition, the Hou Mansion cannot live without a son, so he still wants to take Yun Ze away.

The belly of An Lehou's concubine did not move at all, even if there was movement, it was not known whether it was a man or a woman, and even if it was a man, he did not know if he would grow up or if he would be promising when he grew up.

After much deliberation, Yunze is the most suitable in all aspects.

During Yunze's departure from Mingdu for more than a month, An Lehou came to Zhong Xing's residence to beg for someone whenever he had free time. Even if he was rejected many times, he would still come to the door with the cheek next time.

Yun Ze casually asked a few words.

Zhong Xing answered truthfully.

Yunze didn't react when he heard it, and continued to copy it on paper.

Zhong Xing narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Yunze.

Yunze's reaction was not like that of a normal person.

Most people tend to want more than they can get.The father's love that he hadn't received for more than ten years came back overnight, and many people may have easily accepted their father and the title and property brought by his father for a while.

Even more people don't resent their father when they are left out, but try their best to behave and win their father's favor.

Yunze didn't seem to care much about what happened in Anlehou and Anlehou's mansion.

But Yunze doesn't look like a fickle person, on the contrary, Yunze looks very affectionate, especially those eyes, when he looks at something seriously, these eyes are very affectionate.

The people or things he stares at will make passionate speculations about whether Yunze likes him very much.

Zhong Xing said: "Aren't you going to forgive your father?"

"I don't hate him that much." Yun Ze said, "I may have been disappointed long ago and have no feelings for him, so I treat him more as a stranger and familiar person, at most it's disgust."

Yunze hates something, and will always hate it.

Zhong Xing tapped the table with his slender fingers: "Oh?"

Yunze wrote a "bell" character: "Has the county king strongly hated or liked anyone?"

Zhong Xing didn't speak, but stared at Yunze seriously.He likes Yunze, it's extremely strong, but it's not a selfless love. If Yunze doesn't like him and can't give him the response he wants, this part of love may turn into hatred, making him imprison Yunze Compulsory to stay around.

Yun Ze lowered his eyes, and his long and thick eyelashes cast a little shadow on his face.

Yunze loves his real relatives very much, but it is a pity that he will never go back.

He wrote the word "Shao" on the paper.

I only like the king of the county here.

Zhong Xing watched Yunze practice calligraphy, and when he saw what Yunze wrote on his hand, the veins on the back of his hand bulged, and his eyes were instantly filled with murderous aura.

But he couldn't say anything, after all, he was the one who lied to Yunze.

Yunze would not doubt his identity at all.

Yunze is not a passionate person, the dignified regent conceals his identity and pretends to be his nephew just to fall in love with him—Yunze feels that such absurd things cannot happen in this world.

What's more, if even his identity is false, then what else is true for him?

Speech, character, etc. may also be false.

What would Yunze like about him?Do you like him to be cruel and murderous like hemp?Zhong Xing looked at Yunze expressionlessly.

Zhong Xing went to the banquet in the afternoon, and Yunze played in the garden for a long time.The people below just brought a pair of puppies covered in pitch black. The puppies were not long after they were born, and they were plump and round. Yunze was tired from playing and fell asleep in a random place.

The servant girl didn't notice him for a while, the guards were big-hearted and didn't know how to feel hot or cold, and Yunze slept in the pavilion until dark.

After dark, Zhong Xing came back and found that he was gone. Xu Jing took his maid to search in the garden. Fortunately, Xunyue Garden was not too big, so he quickly found Yunze.

However, after nearly two hours of lake wind blowing in the pavilion, Yunze went back to take a bath and lie down, and the next day he was cold.

This time the wind and cold were particularly severe, and it took more than ten days for him to recover from the wind and cold.

Meng Biao and Zhong Xing were negotiating a deal. He lived very comfortably in Mingdu, wandering between the two factions of the regent and the emperor, and he didn't know which side he would belong to.

The emperor was worried that he would help the tyrant to help the regent, and provided a lot of good things during Meng Biao's wavering period.

The people on Zhong Xing's side are more arrogant and disdain to please Meng Biao, a foreigner.

Fortunately, Zhong Xing himself was not as ready to kill as the outside world said. Meng Biao admired Zhong Xing quite a lot, and he was happy to talk about things with Zhong Xing.

There are a lot of iron ore in the mountains where the Yueyan tribe is located. Their smelting technology is not good, and the Qi Dynasty just needs a lot of weapons.

Unexpectedly, Meng Biao had very few secondary conditions this time.

Zhong Xing took a sip of tea: "Other than these, what else do you want?"

Meng Biao stroked his beard: "Last time I saw a fairy-like young man on the street, and found out that he was the second son of An Lehou. I have asked to see him many times in the past month, but An Lehou has refused me. If the prince can help get this boy into my hands, I will give you 1000 taels of gold, ten boxes of pearls and ten catties of spices every year."

Zhong Xing narrowed his eyes: "I've only met him once, how can you be sure that he's really good-looking? Maybe your eyes are delusional. As far as I know, the young master of the Yun family looks mediocre."

Meng Biao must not let others question his gaze.

It took him half an hour to tell Zhong Xing in detail how exquisite the boy's facial features were, how fair and flawless his complexion was, and even the clothes he wore were exquisite, sober and unassuming. I have described it in detail with these days and nights.

All in all, Meng Biao has seen countless beauties along the way from south to north, but this Mr. Yun is definitely the best-looking, not only good-looking, but also excellent in temperament. look away.Meng Biao's bones have always been very hard. I don't know why these days he always wants to be cheap and let this proud young man step on his face and call him a barbarian.

If Zhong Xing could help him, he would definitely not treat Zhong Xing badly, and even let Zhong Xing come to officiate the wedding and have a wedding reception.

With a "click", the teacup in Zhong Xing's hand shattered.

Meng Biao was praising endlessly at first, but stopped when he heard the voice: "My lord, is there something wrong with your cup?"

Zhong Xing's face was cold: "Gu's hand is injured, we can talk about it another day, you can go back."

Meng Biao was still thinking about it, and wanted to talk to Zhong Xing for another half an hour, but since the host's hostess had turned away, he couldn't help but leave: "Okay, think about it."

Zhong Xing said in a bad tone: "Liaozhou has mines in the west and the sea in the north. The land is vast and rich in resources. The warehouses are covered with gold and pearls. There is no shortage of your 1000 taels of gold every year. In addition, King Yue has an ugly face. Even if you fall in love with him, he I may not be able to see you."

Meng Biao was not happy.

Meng Biao never thought he was ugly, on the contrary, Meng Biao thought he was very good-looking.

When Meng Biao left, Zhong Xing pulled out the sword at his waist expressionlessly.

The table was cut in half in an instant.

Xu Jing heard a voice coming in from outside: "Your Highness, just now King Yue went out angrily, did you have a dispute?"

Zhong Xing's eyes were gloomy: "I'm just thinking, when the time comes, whether to cut him into pieces or cut him into pieces."

Xu Jing shuddered.

He didn't know what Zhong Xing and Meng Biao were talking about.But Zhong Xing has always been happy and angry, even if Zhong Xing is angry again, he will not show it, let alone chop the table that is in good condition.

Zhong Xing will only kill people very calmly.

What did King Yue say?

Zhong Xing narrowed his eyes and said, "Cut a thousand knives first and then divide the body."
