Quick Travel: The paranoid villain acts like a baby in my arms

Chapter 39 The Regent fulfills his duties 04

Wei Chengjing secretly made a mistake.

I just wanted to see Xu Qinyu, but I forgot that I was still a patient.

"This..." Wei Chengjing touched his nose. He didn't want to leave a bad impression on Xu Qinyu: "Then let's take a look."

[Shenjun, you feel guilty. 】

【Shut up. 】

22 remained silent and laughed at Wei Chengjing silently.

Wei Chengjing sat where Xu Qinyu was sitting just now.

On the left side of the table are the unread memorials, a few thick stacks, and on the right side are the memorials that Xu Qinyu has read.

Wei Chengjing motioned Xu Qinyu to sit down: "Your Majesty, please sit down. You can guide me while you eat. I promise not to look sideways."

Xu Qinyu didn't believe it, but sat down anyway.

Jin Fugui stepped forward and opened the food box, and a plate of exquisite plum blossom cakes and glutinous rice cakes appeared in front of Xu Qinyu.

The taste smells sweet but not greasy, exuding bursts of fragrance, tempting Xu Qinyu's taste buds.

Jin Fugui got the signal from Wei Chengjing's eyes and asked all the maids and eunuchs to retreat. Jin Fugui also retreated.

There were only Wei Chengjing and Xu Qinyu in the imperial study, and there was a charcoal-burning stove. The entire imperial study was extremely warm.

Wei Chengjing picked up a memorial that Xu Qinyu had read and read it.

He was either looking at the content or how Xu Qinyu reviewed the memorial.

Xu Qinyu is a good calligrapher. His handwriting looks square and soft, but actually he has a sharp edge.

Just like Xu Qinyu, who appears to be loyal, patriotic, polite and well-educated, but in fact there is a hint of madness hidden inside.

Seeing that Wei Chengjing had been reading the memorial, Xu Qinyu couldn't help but be a little confused. He had read it and there seemed to be no problem.

"Your Majesty, are there any problems with this memorial?"

"Huh?" Wei Chengjing realized that he had been looking at it for too long, and he silently put the memorial back.

"There's no problem, it's just that I saw the prince's handwriting was beautiful, so I couldn't help but read it for a while."

Xu Qinyu felt even more strange when he said this. Didn't Wei Chengjing read his handwriting many times? Why do I think his writing is beautiful today?

"Don't you eat pastries? I tried them and they were pretty good."

Xu Qinyu also wants to eat. Isn't this inconvenient?

Fortunately, Wei Chengjing was very considerate: "Your Majesty, go behind the screen and eat. Come out after you've finished."

Xu Qinyu said: "No, I'll just change the mask."

In the morning, he went to Wei Chengjing's place for dinner without wearing a mask because it was urgent. Later, when he came out, he asked his subordinates to bring it to him.

Xu Qinyu turned around and quickly took off his mask, then quickly put on another mask. The whole process took less than three seconds, and Wei Chengjing saw nothing.

When he turned his head, Wei Chengjing felt that this mask was better than the previous one. At least this one could see Xu Qinyu's chin.

Judging from the exposed skin, Xu Qinyu's face was very white, his chin was beautiful, and his lips were beautiful, which made him want to kiss her.

Wei Chengjing only glanced at it and then looked away. He picked up a memorial and started reading. He was worried that Xu Qinyu would find out what he was thinking if he read for a while.

It was obvious that there was no love between Xu Qinyu and the original owner, and there was even some estrangement. He didn't want to arouse Xu Qinyu's resentment.

After Xu Qinyu changed his mask, he saw that Wei Chengjing showed no other behavior and was only concentrating on reading the memorial, so he picked up the pastry to eat.

He was really hungry.

"There is a plate of fruit under the pastries." Wei Chengjing reminded him at the right time.

Xu Qinyu said "thank you" very politely.

Wei Chengjing didn't want Xu Qinyu to be so polite to him.

The more polite Xu Qinyu is, the less intimate they are.

Xu Qinyu was eating cakes, while Wei Chengjing read the memorial carefully.

The first one was the recent report from Yan State.

The current king of the Yan Kingdom, Yan Ze, ascended the throne at the age of twenty-three and is twenty-five years old this year. He is extremely arrogant and arrogant, and pursues the principle of "fighting violence with violence." Currently, the ministers and common people of the Yan Kingdom are actually being suppressed by the military. .

Yanze sent people to attack Wei many times. If it were not for Xu Qinyu, Wei would have been overrun by the Yan army.

This memorial is about the recent private changes in Yan State. It seems that Yan Ze is plotting something big.

"The king of Yan State is so ambitious that if the world falls into the hands of this person, the people will suffer unspeakably."

Xu Qinyu swallowed the mouthful of glutinous rice cake and took another sip of water before answering Wei Chengjing.

"Yes, this person is extremely arrogant and has launched many provocations against our country. Our continued retreat will only make him more unscrupulous."

Based on the memory of the original owner and 22, Wei Chengze learned about the current situation in the Yan Kingdom and came up with some countermeasures.

"I have a plan, would you like to hear it, Your Majesty?"

Xu Qinyu was a little curious. In the past, Wei Chengjing's suggestions were not very practical. He would listen to them every time, and it was the same this time.

"I would like to hear the details."

In view of the current situation in Wei State, Wei Chengjing suggested developing the economy and supporting the army with strong economic strength.

To develop the economy, agriculture and commerce need to go hand in hand. To encourage the development of agriculture and commerce, the state will provide certain support.

Support is not free, tax must be collected.

The state of Wei was divided into prefectures and counties, and taxes were originally paid according to the prefectures.

There is a downside to this system.

As long as the state taxes are paid in full, it doesn't matter where they come from. This has resulted in many poor people being oppressed.

Wei Chengjing proposed to collect taxes based on land and property.

He gave Xu Qinyu an example: "If I, Wei Chengjing, own ten acres of fertile land and three shops, I should collect taxes based on the output of these ten acres of land and the profits of the shop."

Xu Qinyu became interested when he heard what Wei Chengjing said and signaled Wei Chengjing to continue.

Wei Chengjing planned to explain the knowledge in his mind to Xu Qinyu in general.

Basically, Wei Chengjing was speaking unilaterally, and Xu Qinyu was listening, because he wanted to hear Wei Chengjing finish speaking before expressing his opinion.

As Wei Chengjing spoke, he began to write on the paper with a brush.

The tip of the brush is not particularly soft, and Wei Chengjing got used to it after writing for a while.

Xu Qinyu unknowingly approached Wei Chengjing, and the smell of him poured into Wei Chengjing's nasal cavity, making Wei Chengjing dazed for a moment.

It tastes like a mixture of ice and snow and red plums. The taste is not strong, only a light aroma.

Fortunately, Wei Chengjing had strong self-control and quickly calmed down and continued.

It wasn't until Jin Fugui outside reminded them that it was lunch time that Xu Qinyu and Wei Chengjing came back to their senses from all the rules and regulations.

When the two of them looked at it, they found that Wei Chengjing had written a small pile.

Xu Qinyu didn't really want to eat. He wanted to continue listening to what Wei Chengjing said. He felt itchy until he finished listening.

He then made a suggestion to Wei Chengjing: "Your Majesty, why don't you go eat after finishing speaking?"

Wei Chengjing did not agree and coaxed softly: "There is still some content, let's talk about it after eating, okay?"

Xu Qinyu's cheeks felt a little hot. Why did Wei Chengjing speak so nicely? His heart was beating abnormally.

Fortunately he was wearing a mask, otherwise Wei Chengjing would have noticed.

"Ok."
