She has changed a lot. The last time I saw her in Nagato Palace, she didn't cry and had a calm face.

He originally thought that, based on what he knew about her, the first time she saw him, she would scream and ask him why he abolished him, or repeat the old saying, saying that without her, he would not be the king he is today .

But she didn't, she smiled lightly, seeing him like a stranger, without love, hate, or infatuation.

Thinking of her demeanor that day, Liu Che felt a tightness in his chest.

She doesn't like him, how is it possible!

But when she dreamed about the Empress Dowager, she racked her brains to figure it out, and finally helped him defeat the Huns and restore the prestige of the Han family.

Even disregarding the danger of personal friendship with military generals, he gave Li Guang his stirrups, allowing him to win another victory when he used troops against the Huns.

To him, she was just an abandoned queen. She didn't have to do this, but she still did it because she still loved him.

Liu Che closed his eyes, and a fragment from many years ago suddenly appeared in his mind.

That year, he was still young, and his father didn't like him. His father taught the prince Liu Rong how to shoot arrows. His majestic face was full of kindness. The little him stood aside, his fingers tightly clutching the bowstring, like a superfluous person. generally.

A-Jiao ran over from nowhere, held his hand with her fleshy little hands, and stood in front of him, as if she wanted to block some glare from him: "Uncle, you have taught the prince brother for so long, and you have also taught me Let's take a look at Cher."

At that time, he was grateful to her.

But I don't know when, gratitude has changed. Her existence reminds him all the time. Many years ago, he was unknown, relying on his mother's humble flattery, relying on the eldest princess Dou Taizhu's all-round beauty, Relying on Lord Gillian's blue eyes, he won the throne.

Liu Che closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows.

Mrs. Wei noticed his strangeness, and said softly, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Thinking about what happened at the palace banquet just now, Wei Zifu tentatively said: "If you miss my sister, bring her back."

Liu Che's brows loosened slightly, Wei Zifu's heart tightened, and after thinking for a while, he gently massaged Liu Che's shoulder with his fingers, and said, "I come from a humble background, and many people look down on me. Sister Gillian comes from a noble family—"

"What humbleness and nobility!"

Liu Che suddenly opened his eyes, and said coldly: "The more they look down on you, the more I like you. Just wait, one day, I will make them all kneel at your feet."

In an instant, the thoughts that Li Guang and Han Yan's words attracted to Chen Ajiao changed a little, and all of them disappeared.

"And Wei Qing."

Liu Che said: "What about the horse slave? It's not the same as being a real Qingqi general? I like him. He can not only be my Qingqi general, but also my great general!"

Wei Zifu was slightly startled, and the strength in her hands was a little stronger. She simply stopped massaging Liu Che, and slid her fingers from Liu Che's back to Liu Che's neck, circling Liu Che's neck, her face pressed against his back, her eyes drooping. Softly said: "How to make this happen?"

"Qing'er's victory is a fluke, and he can't bear the heavy responsibility of His Majesty. What's more, His Majesty defeated the Xiongnu twice, and the Huns were also frightened by His Majesty. Your Majesty should take a truce and keep the people healthy. How can Qing'er be used?"

Liu Che said disapprovingly, "It's only been two times. How many times have the Xiongnu slaughtered our Han people? When spring comes, I will definitely use troops against the Xiongnu again."

"Yes," Wei Zifu hesitated, and said, "My concubine has heard people say that the treasury is short of money, and it is difficult to support Your Majesty's use of troops against the Xiongnu."

Liu Che's eyes froze, he turned to look at Wei Zifu, and said, "Who did you listen to?"

Wei Zifu looked at Liu Che timidly, and said cautiously: "I heard it from my mother, who also said..."

"Needless to say." Liu Che interrupted Wei Zifu, a little impatient.

Needless to say, he also knew what his mother had said to Wei Zifu.

Why is it not easy for the ancestors to start a business, and the younger generations should act cautiously. If there is no money in the court, you can't use poor soldiers to redeem martial arts. The long-term way is to live with the people.

He used to just ignore these words and never paid attention to them, but now, he was upset when he heard them.

The reason is that this time it is not the wolf who has come, but the court really has no money.

He wants to use troops against the Xiongnu again. It is like a joke when the court has no money to use

Chen Ajiao, who was in Han Yan's room at that time, was obviously unaware of Liu Che's entangled thoughts, and was discussing the affairs of the court with Han Yan.

Li Guang is a military commander who only knows how to fight and is not very sensitive to court affairs. Han Yan is different. Although she was originally chosen by Liu Che as a companion because of her good life, Liu Che may have trusted her since she was a child. It's not just a face that's prettier than a woman's.

Han Yan was leaning on the cushion, talking to Chen Ajiao with her face sideways: "Although Li Guang is brave, he doesn't understand the government, so he is not a good ally."

Chen Ajiao fiddled with her abacus, and said casually: "Got it."

"By the way, I asked you to check for me, how is the investigation going?"

Han Yan's eyes turned slightly, and she smiled: "You must have underestimated the former emperors too much. The accumulation of several generations of the Han family, not to mention just using troops against the Huns twice, even if it lasts for another ten years, there is no problem. "

Chen Ajiao paused for a moment while fiddling with the abacus, and looked up at Han Yan.

The candlelight was dim, her eyes were clear, she smiled leisurely, and teased, "Ten years?"

Chen Ajiao's face was full of sarcasm, Han Yan couldn't help feeling a little guilty, and said: "Hey, I exaggerated, five years, at most five years."

Chen Ajiao put down her abacus with a snap, and was about to go out with the ledger in her hand.

Han Yan quickly got up and pulled her: "What are you doing?"

Chen Ajiao raised her eyebrows lightly, and said, "Han Yan, Han Yan, I entrust you to investigate these things because I consider you a bosom friend."

"Now the treasury's money and food have been supported for five years. I'm afraid that even the money and food for the next military campaign against the Huns will be embezzled from where!"

Han Yan coughed lightly with her fists bent, her face slightly embarrassed - he wanted to give Liu Che a bit of a face.

It's hard for him to say that the accumulation of several generations of emperors was squandered by Liu Che so quickly.

Chen Ajiao raised the account book in her hand, and suddenly smiled: "I have a way to make money, do you believe me or not?"

She was originally very beautiful, and she smiled brightly, like looking at the moon in the water, or looking at the bamboo beside the clouds.

Candles were never burned in Han Yan's house, and only fist-sized luminous pearls were placed by the table in the corridor. Spices were burning in the gilded auspicious sandalwood burner. face.

"Letter, letter."

Han Yan grabbed Chen Ajiao's clothes, and suddenly felt that the Shu embroidery material in her hand was a bit slippery.

Chen Ajiao walked into the room and sat down again, and said: "I thought about it, although General Li Guang has the power to shoot tigers, but he is old after all, and he is far less vigorous than Wei Qing."

Han Yan took another sip of the hangover soup, looked at Chen Ajiao, and said, "What about me?"

Chen Ajiao looked Han Yan up and down, and couldn't help laughing: "Are you able to lead troops to fight with Wei Qing? Or are you as cautious as Wei Qing?"

The grandson of the young dandy who throws gold pills, it is better not to compete with Wei Qing for the title of a natural general and the guardian of the country.
