It has been more than ten days since the last attack. Today is the last day of winter hunting in the two countries. It started to snow yesterday morning, which added atmosphere to the winter hunting. It was the first time Yuner saw It was snowing, and she insisted on begging Ye Xiyao to let her go out to admire the snowman. Ye Xiyao granted her a day off, but she came back in less than half a day, her face flushed from the cold, so she had to hide in the tent that was lit by fire.

In the past ten days, Ye Che has often pulled Yi Yanrang to Ye Xiyao's place, and then left with excuses. In his mind, if he became the old man this month, he would win over the prince of the powerful Chu state as his backer, and his father would re-examine his value at that time.

His younger sister has always had a high vision, but Ye Che thought to himself how honorable the position of the princess of Dongchu is. But because the daughter's family is shy, as long as they move around more, this matter should be settled, but after more than ten days, Ye Xiyao is still not warm to Yi Yanrang, and Ye Che is about to become anxious.

Yun'er followed Ye Xiyao out of the tent, and the carriage for the return journey was already ready. Today's Ye Xiyao was dressed in white, with a snow-white sable fur over it, and the blue silk like splashed ink hanging down her back, making her more attractive. beauty.

Ye Che was giving orders to Steward Wang in the distance. Seeing Ye Xiyao approaching, he sent Steward Wang away, and greeted Ye Xiyao with a smile. This was the last day of winter hunting. He wanted to understand Ye Xiyao Xi Yao's thoughts.

"Yao'er... Are you sixteen this year?"

"En." Ye Xiyao understood Ye Che's intentions these days, so when he asked this question, Ye Xiyao guessed about what he said next.

"I'll be married in a year or two. Look at the Crown Prince of Dongchu. Seeing that he's a good-looking talent, the emperor loves you so much. Such a good son-in-law, you..."

Sure enough, Ye Xiyao sighed in her heart, "Brother Huang, I'm still young."

"If you're embarrassed, Brother Huang can..."

Before Ye Che finished speaking, he was interrupted by Ye Xiyao, "I don't want to marry early, Xiyao wants to spend more time with Father."

Just as he was about to persuade this unenlightened younger sister again, he saw Yi Yanrang, who was also dressed in white, with a high nose bridge and full of heroic spirit. This kind of appearance is indeed the perfect image in the hearts of many women, let alone the prince of a country, how could Ye Xi Yao is not tempted.

"Brother Ye, what are you talking to the princess about?" Yi Yanrang had already walked to the side.

"I was talking about you."

"Oh? About me?"

"Say you and Yao'er are both dressed for this snowy scene. It happens that one is a wit and the other is a beauty."

A talented man deserves a beautiful woman, how could Yi Yanrang fail to understand what Ye Che meant, and smiled softly, "Brother Ye is too famous." He looked at Ye Xiyao again, and frowned: "It's such a cold day, so I don't wear so much Some clothes? Yun'er, ask someone to prepare more clothes for Yao'er to change into."

"There is a charcoal stove in this car to keep warm, so it's good to wear it like this, please don't worry about the crown prince." Ye Xiyao smiled faintly.

With such a faint smile again, Yi Yanrang felt a little disappointed when he heard the politeness in Ye Xiyao's words. These days, he cared for her in every possible way, but she always smiled like that, and her words and deeds were polite and polite. Doesn't politeness mean alienation?Yaoer, Yaoer, when will you understand my heart for you?

Ye Che also understood Ye Xiyao's estrangement. Afraid of embarrassment, he quickly changed the subject: "It's getting late, Yao'er, get in the carriage, Prince...the horses are prepared ahead, let's set off."

Yi Yanrang nodded, said goodbye to Ye Xiyao, turned and left, Ye Che was about to go with him, but Ye Xiyao grabbed his sleeve, and when Yi Yanrang walked a little further, Ye Xiyao Open the mouth: "Is he... going back to the Kingdom of Shang with us?"

"Yeah, let's go back to Shang Country together. This time, Shang Country and Dong Chu are not only hunting prey in this paddock, they are hunting the whole world." Ye Che left with a smile and left.

Ye Yun, the monarch of the Shang Kingdom, has two sons and a daughter. Ye Che is the eldest son, while Ye Xiyao and Ye Zeqing are the sons of the former queen Luo Yun. Ye Zeqing has just turned six years old this year and is the youngest son. The system should make Ye Che the crown prince, but when Luo Yun passed away five years ago, Ye Yun issued an edict to make the one-year-old Ye Zeqing the crown prince regardless of the opposition of the officials. It should belong to him...

Shang Kingdom, Changhua Palace.

"Qing'er... Do you know why the country name of our Shang Kingdom is Shang?" Ye Yun, the monarch of the Shang Kingdom, was sitting on the dragon couch, with a set of Go in front of him. Fighting, "crack", another black chess piece fell, blocking the white chess's retreat.

"I know, the teacher said it." Opposite Ye Yun, there was a little child sitting on his knees, with his head lowered, he quickly followed up with a piece, and changed to attack the lower part of the black chess piece. That was Ye Zeqing, the prince of Shang. "Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants have always had a low status. Ye Zhe, the founding emperor of our Shang country, was born as a merchant, and he was rich like an enemy, but he was looked down upon by those sour and rotten people. At that time, it was the Li country, the Li monarch, and the Li country was in chaos. When the ancestors saw the people displaced, they donated money and food with their own resources. All displaced people could get a job in Ye Mansion and settle down. "

Ye Yun suddenly coughed lightly, interrupting Ye Zeqing's words.

"Father..." Ye Zeqing straightened his body, looked at Ye Yun, his eyes were full of worry.

Ye Yun raised his eyes, and saw Ye Zeqing's delicate face, slightly thin body, immature and a little cowardly expression, just now Ye Zeqing surrounded Wei and rescued Zhao, he really appreciated, this child's temperament is decisive when playing chess Alright, Ye Yun waved his hand, indicating that he was fine, and left Hei Zi in the next paragraph, "Go on..."

"Yes..." Seeing that Ye Yun was fine, Ye Zeqing sat down again, "The name of our ancestors' benevolence and righteousness spread far and wide, Emperor Li was furious, and 4 people could form an army. They sent 4 troops and ordered the massacre of the ancestors and more than [-] people. Originally, the king wanted his ministers to die, and the ministers had to die. What's more, the ancestors were mere commoners, but the ancestors were not sour people who read sage books, so naturally they couldn't sit still. More than ten thousand people are grateful to their ancestors, and no one is willing to abandon their ancestors and leave.

"Heroes are born in troubled times. It was also at that time that Ye Fu, the No. 1 general of our Shang Dynasty, appeared, and more than 4 people formed an army in ten days. God, Li's army was defeated day by day, the ancestors' hearts were in the favor, and the army was getting stronger and stronger. The ancestors and Ye Fu fought from the south to the imperial capital. In the battle of the imperial capital, hundreds of thousands of corpses were laid down, and the blood of the enemy army merged into a stream. In the stream, Emperor Li hanged himself, and everyone pushed the ancestors to be emperors, and the ancestors lamented that they regarded merchants as emperors, and the name of the country as merchants."

While Ye Zeqing was speaking, the two sides had already played more than a dozen moves of chess, the black dragon gradually overwhelmed the white dragon, and the situation was about to become clear.

"Then do you know why our country of Shang is the strongest?"

"Since the founding of the Shang Kingdom, there has been a trend of emphasizing commerce. Merchants from all over the world have come to each other for profit, and the Shang Kingdom has never refused to come. As a result, the Shang Kingdom has become the most prosperous place in the world. Markets and merchants abound, and the treasury is full. The world, so the Shang country is as its name suggests, and the strongest is its wealth."

"Some people say that if a business country emphasizes business, its agriculture will be weak, so what?"

"Shang Xing is indeed weak in farming, so the country of Shang produces little grain, and the grain can be sold at a good price in the country of Shang. Merchants from various countries are also willing to do this business in Shang, even if his country prohibits it, but businessmen are driven by profit. So food is not a big problem."

"Oh?" Ye Yun was pleasantly surprised by Ye Zeqing's insight, the chess in front of him came to an end, after a few more moves, Bailong had no room to change. "Then why is our Shang country the weakest?"

"Shang's soldiers are weak, and Shang's generals are unknown."

"That's right, since Ye Fu, the Shang Kingdom has no famous generals. Once there is a war, the soldiers are weak and useless. That's why we formed an alliance with the powerful Eastern Chu. He needs to rely on our financial resources, and we rely on their combat power for protection." Ye Yun dropped the last son and strangled Bailong.

"My son lost." Ye Zeqing bowed down.

"Okay, get up, count the days, someone from Dongchu should come." Ye Yun looked out the window and sighed, "The power of Dongchu is not enough to dominate the world, so this time we are going to pull us Shangguo, Humeng is the king, with the strong soldiers of Eastern Chu and the wealth of Shang, all countries should regard us as kings. It seems that Shang and Chu are benefiting together, but in fact, Shang is making a deal with the tiger, but if we don’t I am afraid that this business will be the first to be eaten up."

Ye Yun straightened his dragon robe and looked at Ye Zeqing with relief. Although his temper was a bit weak, he looked at the problem very thoroughly.

"Qing'er, do you know why the emperor insists on making you the crown prince?"

Ye Zeqing shook his head, "My son is stupid and doesn't know."

"Because of your emperor's temperament, if you win, you will be arrogant, and if you lose, the city government will bear it. If you rule the country in the future, this temperament will harm him and the country of Shang. You have benevolence in your heart. You are only six years old now. You have more insight than those I don't know how high you are, you have the talent of an emperor, and your temperament is not cowardly. If you encounter something you want to protect, you can be more stubborn and stronger than anyone else. This is very similar to your mother and your imperial sister. The royal father knows it in his heart."

Ye Zeqing grabbed the hem of his clothes and buried his head very low, he was afraid that he would disappoint Ye Yun's expectations.

Ye Yun naturally knew what Ye Zeqing was thinking, and stroked his head lovingly, "Okay, today's chess game ends here, you go back to Changguang Palace to rest, father is also tired."

"Yes." Ye Zeqing stood up from the step, his legs were numb from kneeling for too long, and he almost couldn't stand up, but he didn't want to fall down, so he persisted like that, and bowed to Ye Yun , "My son will leave."

When Ye Zeqing's figure disappeared around the corner, Ye Yun sat alone on the couch and was lost in thought. He was thinking about what he would do if one day Ye Che really did something treacherous.
