Chapter 110 Non-pool
Xia Wuchen got up, added a little cyan powder to the incense burner, and then sat cross-legged on the mat: "According to the usual practice, the resettlement of the victims should be allocated silver by the court, and his father personally issued an order to various towns. Today, his father asked Li Jing to deal with this matter, which means that the court will not allocate money. You, Prime Minister Li It's up to you. There was also a time a few years ago. At that time, countless disaster victims starved to death, and people were angry. In the final analysis, it was at that time that King Qi dared to rebel with the four princes.
"Since the emperor knows that the consequences are so serious, how dare he make the same mistake again?"
"Have you forgotten that in addition to the five intentions mentioned by Jiang Mozhu, the most fundamental thing for us to go to Cang is to persuade the people of Cang to migrate to the lower land of Xia. If the disaster victims can't be settled in the end, the father should issue an imperial edict. Xia Wuchen looked at Ling Yue helplessly and said, "Maybe my father was ready to do this at the beginning, and he didn't intend to let us go to the Cang Kingdom, and maybe he had been followed by many masters since we left Linyun. Otherwise, how could those two slaves in Yanzhou appear at that time? You should know that we are taking the waterway. Unless we follow it all the way, we can't know it at all.
"But you said that summoning us back is the meaning of the dean, but according to what you say now, it has become your father's meaning."
"Who knows, the complexity is here, and no one can figure out who the chess player is."
Ling Yue stared at the cyan smoke floating in the incense burner and repeated: "The chess player..."
"There must be a chess player in all events, but we don't know who plays chess."
"Listen to what you said, I have a feeling of being slaughtered by people with a knife."
Xia Wuchen nodded thoughtfully: "You are right to say that. Who is not fish in this palace? In fact, even my father is not like this?"
"Then who do you think can kill the emperor's knife?"
Xia Wuchen frowned and said, "Don't say such rebellious words, in fact, his father looks at freedom, but he is the least free person. In the final analysis, the dean's father's biggest heart disease.
Ling Yue muttered: "How can the side of the couch allow others to snoo? A generation of emperors are led by the nose by a dean. Isn't it a heart disease? I heard that King Qi rebelled in those years, and the president mobilized the soldiers and horses of other countries to suppress the soldiers and horses of the four princes. How on earth did you do it?
"Ha ha, I also want to know this question." Xia Wuchen said with a wry smile.
"Wuchin, I've always had a question for you." Ling Yue opened her eyes wide, with a little sharpness in her eyes.
"What's the problem?"
"Why have you raised doubts about the dean?"
"What doubts?"
Ling Yue took a deep breath and said, "The dean came to Linyun 40 years ago, but when we met the dean in Yanzhou that day, you were not surprised at all. Have you ever doubted anything about this?"
Xia Wuchen nodded slightly: "What's so surprising about this? There are many people in the world who can have an ageless face. What's more, after that you said that the dean was you, and you traveled through time and space. In my opinion, it is more convincing than traveling through such a thing. But speaking of which, why doesn't even that night grow old?
With that, Xia Wuchen's eyes fell on the night standing in the corner eating mung bean cake.
"This is a puzzle, I don't know." Ling Yue shook her head and said, "Maybe there are props or something, just like the moonlight treasure box. Ha ha, anyone can travel through time and space."
"It's incredible. Who can believe this kind of thing?"
"Let's get back to the point without discussing this kind of tormenting problem." Ling Yue said with a straight face.
"What's the topic?"
"Hey, as the direct prince of Xia, how can you care so much about your people? Naturally, the topic is disaster victims."
"It's useless to worry about this kind of thing."
"Why is it useless?"
"What do you think is the use if the court doesn't allocate money?" Xia Wuchen's face showed a trace of helplessness.
"At your time, does the court want to watch so many people starve to death?" Ling Yue said, "Isn't your father afraid of the people's rebellion?"
"Rebellion? Is it possible?"
"Where there is oppression, there is resistance. All unrest is caused by the instability of the people. Is it possible that your father wants to stir up another army?
"That's impossible. The raising of troops must be justifiable, at least the children of the royal family should be the head of the army. In those years, it was because of the king of Qi, so who can replace the position of the king of Qi now?"
Ling Yue blinked her eyes and said, "King Kang."
Xia Wuchen was stunned: "Why did you think of King Kang?"
"Jinlin is not a thing in the pool. King Kang is now a flying dragon trapped in the pool. Sooner or later, he will fly out of the water."
"You know him."
"This is not a matter of understanding. He has his ambitions, and you also have your ambitions." Ling Yue's eyes flashed, and her eyes were a little lonely. "King Kang is a cheetah. He usually endures, but as long as he takes action, he will definitely cut off the lifeline of his prey. And Wuchen, you... are a cat."
Xia Wuchen smiled gently: "No way, the three are leopards. Why did they become cats when they came to me?"
"Ha ha, because you are too easy to bully, so it's a cat."
"If I were a cat, what would Ling Yue be you?"
"It's not a mouse anyway." Ling Yue looked out of the window with a smile. The courtyard was lush and flowers were in full bloom. Occasionally, a few unnamed birds stood on the branches and roared, "Wuchen, if you guess correctly, you will soon be canoned as a prince."
Xia Wuchen was not surprised, but looked at the golden sunshine sprinkled on the cool mat with a peaceful expression as if he was about to fall asleep: "You also guessed it."
"What, are you unhappy?"
"I don't know." Xia Wuchen stretched out his slender and white fingers and stroked them along the green mat. "Father is suspicious. If I really become a prince, I'm afraid it will not be easy in the future."
"Don't worry, even if your emperor's father is suspicious."
"Why? Do you think the father will not kill his son?
Ling Yue shook her head: "How can I have such a stupid idea? How about my son? How about husband and wife? Born in the emperor's family, there is no such thing as family affection. If you are kind, you are cruel to yourself.
"It hit the nail on the head."
"Wuchn, what will you do if the emperor orders you to accept the concubine?"
Xia Wuchen suddenly raised his head and said firmly, "Then marry."
After hearing the answer, Ling Yue's face immediately turned gloomy. After a long time, he turned into a faint smile: "This is like a man."
"Are you not jealous?"
Don't ask such strange questions. There are only two kinds of things. One is that you can control and the other is that you can't control. The current situation is obviously the second one, so this is not a matter of jealousy at all. Ling Yue said and turned around, "Lu Ye, you are going to become a pig after eating."
He ate the last piece of mung bean cake at night and said, "Pigs don't eat mung bean cake."
"It's not such a way to eat if you like it. How many dishes is this? If I remember correctly, it's the fourth disc.
"Sister, you are so stingy that you can't even give me mung bean cake."
"I think you have eaten so much, why don't you need to drink water?" Xia Wuchen asked sideways.
"Why do you drink water? I'm not thirsty."
If there is a broken soul fragrance, mass around. Let it go, the Spring Warm Palace is not as gorgeous as it looks, but a little more simple and profound, which comes from thousands of scrolls on the four walls. Ling Yue once browsed it casually, but it was just some rhetorical poems, so she didn't touch those ancient scrolls that would make her toothache after reading it.
Looking around, Ling Yue said helplessly, "Can't you put some other books?" It's full of poems and songs.
"Is the poetry and song not good?"
"Good is good, but no matter how you look at poetry and songs, it's still poetry and songs. Wuchen, are there any other books? Ah, Liu Ye, let's go to the Supervision Institute to play.
"Go to the supervisory court? Play?"
"Hee, in fact, look for some files. Liu Ye is now the guard of the file room of the Supervision Institute. Hey hey, Wuchen, if you want to go in, you have to pay the money.
"In that case, I'll stay here to read poems and songs." Xia Wuchen got up, casually selected an old scroll that looked still dilapidated from the bookcase, and smiled faintly, "Ling Yue, I found that you like silver very much."
Ling Yue said with a straight face, "I don't like silver at all. What I like is gold."
