[Red Mansions] Guide to "The Empress of the Wise"

Again and again, Wang Shuo has learned to be calm.

Wang Shuo's small study room was brightly lit, so that people's shadows would not be printed on the windows. Wang Shuo and Tu Geng sat at opposite ends of the room. From the outside, it seemed that his subordinates were reporting matters to their master.

"Thank you for your kindness." Wang Shuo smiled.

"Do you know about Ximan's marriage to Beijing?"

"know."

Simply knowing the two words has already revealed too much information. For example, Wang Shuo must have power in the Northwest, otherwise he would not have gotten the news so quickly; To marry him, there must be a better candidate, such as...

Tu Geng's mind was disturbed for a moment, and thousands of thoughts flashed through.

The matter seemed to come to an end here, the goodwill of both parties was clearly expressed, Tu Geng smiled with the corners of his mouth pulled, and was about to get up and leave.

When he got to the door, Tu Geng turned around again, and said with a smile: "It's hard to come here, if I don't ask clearly, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."

"Why don't you marry me, you have no better choice? Or do you want to marry Xue Hong?" Tu Geng asked bluntly.

"What's the matter with Xue Hong?" Wang Shuo was surprised, and immediately reacted, shaking his head and smiling bitterly: "I and Xue Hong are friends of gentlemen, and we definitely don't have any intentions. He is my business partner. If you talk about personal friendship, you can be considered a friend." ,You think too much."

"Today's Eastern Suburb..." Tu Geng was very clear about Wang Shuo's actions.

"Half of the same purpose as yours, come to tell me about the Ximan Mission." Wang Shuo said frankly, "What kind of person I am, you should know that you and I have fled alone for a few days, and we have not violated the etiquette. I don't think of you as a man or a woman. I admire your talent and envy your determination. If you think of me so much, then I will be sad."

"No..." Tu Geng shook his head, this was not what he wanted to express, and asked persistently, "Why don't you want to marry me?"

"It's not that I don't want to marry you, it's that I don't want to marry someone." Wang Shuo said apologetically, "Sit down and talk slowly." This is a very long topic. If the person in front of him can't be her husband, then he can be her friend.

"My requirements for my husband are very simple. One is loyalty. I don't want to accept other people except me. Of course, I don't mind if the women before me are dealt with cleanly. The second is tolerance. I don't want to lock myself in the back room. Here, be a canary waiting to be fed. It’s that simple, why, what kind of expression do you find incredible?” Wang Shuo said with a smile: “I will have the same loyalty to my husband, and we will live and die together. I also tolerate everything about my husband and try my best to help him, don't I deserve to be treated like this?"

"It's worth it, of course it's worth it." Tu Geng said.

"It's just that you should be clear about my affairs. When I was young, I grew up under the influence of the old lady, and my mind was full of trivial matters of jealousy in the backyard; later, I was fortunate enough to be taught by my master. Her old man's pattern is too grand, and I suddenly overestimated it." , I was confused for a while; and then the Yongwang Mansion incident happened. My parents are the most loving couple I have ever seen, even if they are in trouble, they will fly separately. How can you let me have expectations for marriage." Wang Shuo confessed quietly Own.

Tu Geng sighed, "You are better than me." Wang Shuo thought too clearly, compared to Tu Geng, he felt that he was much shallower.Today's visit to ask for marriage, although there is a desire and a heart of gratitude in his heart, but it is not because he wants to take advantage of Wang Shuo, he has never thought about life after marriage.Tu Geng laughed at himself, in vain he swore secretly that his children would not live like his own when he was young, but he never thought of marrying a woman with disagreeable thoughts as his wife. His children will live just like him in the future. Normal as a child.

"You and I are also destined, you are talented and tolerant; you have a firm mind and the ability to calm the world and comfort the people. I admire you, but I have to remind you that someone has already discovered your thoughts. "Wang Shuo seemed to have not seen the tense back of Tu Geng when he heard the words "An Shi Fu Min".

"You know?" Tu Geng was both surprised and anxious.

"Yes, a bystander knows. I know, my mother knows, I don't know if other people know." Wang Shuo was thinking about things that a little girl like her could see. can not tell.

Tu Geng thought over what he had done, and found that there were no obvious loopholes. I don't know where Wang Shuo found it?He couldn't help asking out loud.

Wang Shuo didn't hide anything. She thought that Tu Geng had a great chance of being in power. Since the princes were not sacred, they hadn't been crowned king for so long. Since the clan's power of speech was basically concentrated in the Prince Yong's Mansion, she was not afraid of being wrong. What.

Wang Shuo told him in detail, from the suspicion caused by the smell of Leng Meixiang during the fire on the road, to the further deepening when he saw him in Guangdong, to the further speculation of chasing and killing on the road, and finally when he helped Tu Jin succeed to the throne. Sure.

"Just based on these?" Tu Geng said in surprise, this is too casual, what if you guess wrong?

"Isn't that enough? Boldly assume, carefully verify, the fact proves that I guessed right, isn't it?" Wang Shuo thought to himself, eliminating those impossible options, and the last thing left is naturally the answer.

Tu Geng held his forehead and laughed, really!It was a guess, and it was "assumed" based on those trivial things that were completely unrelated.Fortunately, after Tu Geng set up a bridge for Tu Jin in Yongwang's Mansion, he was so nervous that he couldn't sleep at night. He sorted out his subordinates several times for fear of being a traitor.

"If that's the case, I'm relieved." Tu Geng said with a smile, the court ministers would never guess.

"Why is that? Don't underestimate the people of the world." Wang Shuo reminded.

"You don't understand." People in the world, especially men in the court, have fixed thinking. They can't think of this. This may be the difference between men and women. And there is no one in the world who is as proficient in government affairs and good at analyzing the situation as Wang Shuo woman.

"I don't understand." Wang Shuo shrugged, "You just need to understand, well, it's getting late at night, you should go back quickly."

"I suddenly feel that I should marry you." Tu Geng teased.

"Don't think of me as noble. I'm just a little woman, yearning for the ethereal love between men and women. If my husband betrays me one day, I will make troubles upside down." When other women get angry, they can only piss off their own woman, and she will kill her husband who has a single household registration.

Tu Geng smiled lightly, didn't respond to the words, and only asked: "Then what are you going to do about Ximan's marriage?"

"I'm not the only candidate, and I have the opportunity to operate; if it doesn't work out, I will become a monk and become a female champion. I can't spend my whole life in order to avoid a Western barbarian." Wang Shuo said indifferently, there is no unparalleled road , isn't it?

"Take care." Seeing that Wang Shuo had his own idea, Tu Geng stopped talking nonsense, lowered his head, opened the door and walked out, like every humble servant in the house, Suzhen walked beside him, sending him out.

Humans are indeed social animals. After talking about it, Wang Shuo felt much more relaxed. He fell asleep so beautifully that he got up to greet Princess Fuhui and told her about Ximan's intention to come to Beijing to get married.

"The whole court hasn't heard the news yet?" Princess Fuhui asked in surprise.

"When most people know about it, things will be settled and there will be no room for change." In fact, only a few people know about important events, and only a few people make decisions, but in the end it affects the majority people.

"Then what should you do? Decide on the marriage immediately! How do you see the list I gave you? Has anyone been selected yet?" Princess Fuhui said anxiously. .

"Mother~Mother!" Wang Shuo called out to the frightened Princess Fuhui, and said, "I won't go for a kiss! Don't worry!"

Princess Fuhui picked up the teacup on the table with shaking hands and poured a large cup of tea before she calmed down and said, "What are you going to do?"

"At present, only His Majesty, my grandfather and I know about this matter. We can't let our majesty know that we got the news of the border at the same time as him, or even earlier than him. Isn't this a disaster for my grandfather and the Wang family? ? Your Majesty has become more and more suspicious in recent years, and we have to be more careful." Is it possible that he is under a spell, the older the emperor is, the more suspicious he is, and now His Majesty does not see the unsuspecting demeanor of being employed when he was young. .

"What you said is that you can't move now, so you know it in your heart? I said at the beginning that I should settle down earlier, so as not to be self-defeating. Look at you, look at you..." Princess Fuhui couldn't help scolding Wang Shuo. Wang Shuo is just too thoughtful.

"Don't worry, I won't be able to hide when the time comes. In the worst case, I'll go to Guanli to be a female crown. After the mission is gone, I will return to the vulgar and get married. Don't worry about it, I know it!" Wang Shuo repeatedly comforted, no matter how bad it is How bad is it.

Princess Fuhui had no choice but to decide Wang Shuo's marriage by herself.

Wang Shuo's current mind is not on marrying herself as soon as possible. She is closely monitoring the major forces in the capital. The matter of the Ximan Mission can completely test out the forces of each family in the northwest.For example, Princess Qinghe must have the dark lines in the army left behind by King Cheng. Lord Yong is an old man, and Tu Geng should not be underestimated.

When the western barbarian mission arrived at the border and handed over their credentials, the fourth prince couldn't help but come to the Wang family to show off his might.

"Gao Minhui has a heart-to-heart, I sincerely propose to marry her, and I hope that sister Fuhui will be happy." The fourth prince came to the door in person, and he had already said a lot of good things before, hinting mildly, but Princess Fuhui didn't answer, so he also challenged her. clear.

"The fourth prince praised her absurdly. That girl is very evasive. How can she be a concubine? I don't want her to marry into a noble family. I just hope to find an ordinary person and live an ordinary life."

This is already the first time I have been rejected. How could the proud fourth prince hold back, and said angrily: "Then wait until you marry Ximan, when the time comes, my uncle will have to make a lot of makeup." !"
