thank you + extra

It's nothing to be so busy, Liu Zao couldn't stop thinking about Xie Yi when he had free time.When she thinks hard, her heart feels as if it has been hollowed out. Sometimes she wakes up in the middle of the night and cannot fall asleep. She dismisses the palace guards, carries a lantern, and goes to the pepper room alone. Looking through Xie Yi's dowry over and over again, as if this would be a consolation.

She learned to hide promises, anxieties and longings in her heart, so Xie Yi didn't know how she spent her sleepless nights.

Xie Yi will also miss Liu Zao, they are all in Beijing, separated by only a palace wall, but it is like a moat in the sky.Unlike Liu Zao who always misses her in the dead of night, Xie Yi misses her the most when they are facing each other.

Either on the main hall of the Great Dynasty, or in the Xuanshi Hall, there are always many irrelevant ministers around, Xie Yi stands at the lower hall, Liu Zao sits at the head, their eyes meet each other, and they try their best to restrain their hearts, the clouds are calm and the wind is light move away.

Xie Yi didn't know what she looked like, but her cuteness looked so pitiful, the more she didn't show anything, the more distressed she was, and she always wanted to hold her in her arms to comfort her.

The genius doctor Liu Zao found was very capable, and Xie Yi saw it, and Xie Yi's wounds improved, Liu Zao was very happy, and appointed the genius doctor as a medical officer, and made him stay in Beijing and stay in the prime minister's residence.

Li Wen knew about their relationship.It's strange to say that even though the emperor is ruthless, when Li Wen learned of the affair between the two of hers, he concluded that the two of them were sincere, and never thought that His Majesty might be interested in it for a while, but it would not last long.

After all, for a person like Xie Yi, once his heart is moved, he can't change it easily.

Fortunately, His Majesty still knows how to measure, Xie Xiang also has integrity, and he didn't take the opportunity to flatter him, so it didn't cause a catastrophe.However, even though he didn't see how the emperor was in contact with the prime minister, Li Wen was still uneasy. He always felt that his majesty's temperament should not be so quiet, and his majesty still refused to make an emperor's husband. But oil and salt do not enter.

Sure enough, another major event happened in less than a year.

When the envoys left the customs, after untold hardships, they finally found out that it turned out that there was a foreign country rising up in the grassland, and the Huns were hard to fight against.Not only that, Han Ping also brought the envoys of small countries such as Dawan and Yueshi back to Chang'an, and formed an alliance with the big Han to fight against the Xiongnu.A small country doesn't have much military strength, but it's just for the purpose of boosting momentum on the scene, and the main thing is to have a big man to take the lead.

However, the scene of all nations coming to court is really beautiful, as if all the countries regard the Central Plains as their suzerain, and the grand Han atmosphere is majestic and majestic.

Liu Zao showed her ambition to conquer the Western Regions. As soon as the envoys left, she suddenly mentioned to the court that she wanted to lead an army to conquer the Xiongnu and conquer the Western Regions in person.

The ministers turned pale with fright, and the emperor personally conscripted, not to mention whether the battle was successful or not, the manpower and material resources spent in it alone were thousands of times.After the two years of fighting, although it can't be said that it hurts muscles and bones, it is by no means easy.If His Majesty stirs things up again, even if the nations finally surrender, the gains will outweigh the losses and hurt one's own bones.

The ministers hurriedly persuaded him, but the emperor became more interested and made up his mind that he must pacify the Western Regions and show the bearing of the Central Plains. Anyone who tried to remonstrate would turn a deaf ear to him, instead he kept urging the ministers to make preparations.

Her Majesty is very wise. She neither builds palaces indiscriminately, exploits the people, nor favors courtiers, harms the loyal and good. She is also very diligent in politics. Whether it is border wars or the hardships of the people's livelihood, she takes it to heart, but she has measures. , It may also be an act of generosity and love for the people.

It can be seen that His Majesty, who is wise in everything, suddenly shows signs of militarism. With such a situation, the world cannot withstand a few years of tossing.

The ministers were really worried, but they couldn't persuade anyone, they discussed again and again, and they came to find Li Wen one after another. Li Wen is the emperor's teacher, and His Majesty should be able to listen to what he said.Li Wen felt even more bitter. If His Majesty would listen to him, there would probably be several princes.

Your Majesty can only listen to the advice of Prime Minister Jin.It is impossible to say this.Li Wen had no choice but to pretend to be deliberate, and said, "The matter is very important, I am afraid it will be difficult for me to accomplish it alone, and I have to invite the Prime Minister to go with me."

When the ministers heard it, they also felt reasonable. The last time they discussed posthumous titles, they all depended on the prime minister to persuade His Majesty.

Chapter 109

The spring day was wet, the wound was swollen and painful, and seeing that the situation at the border was very good, Xie Yi, under the persuasion of the divine doctor, took leave of absence at home and concentrated on recuperating.

When Li Wen came to the door, she was taking medicine.The medicinal juice was bitter, and it was difficult to swallow just by smelling it, but she never frowned, just as comfortable as drinking white water. Holding the medicinal bowl, she drank it slowly, wiped her lips with a wet handkerchief, and then Calmly asked Li Wen about his visit.

The prime minister's demeanor has always been praised.Li Wen has worked with her for many years and has seen her a lot, but at this moment he still admires her secretly.

There was no one else here, and upon hearing Xie Yi's question, he did not hide it, and said bluntly, "Your Majesty is here for Your Majesty."

After he finished speaking, he paid attention to Xie Yi's expression, Xie Yi didn't show any embarrassment, but said seriously, "Let's talk about it carefully, sir."

She felt more and more at ease with Liu Zao, and after she asked for leave, she recuperated with peace of mind, and did not see any visitors. If it wasn't for Li Wen who came today, she might not even see her face, so she still doesn't know what happened in the court.

Seeing that she really didn't know, Li Wen felt a little relieved in his heart. He described the emperor's actions in the past two days in detail, and said, "Your Majesty has never led an army, so it is inevitable that he is unfamiliar with military matters. It is probably not a good thing to take the initiative to go to war personally. However, the lord is determined, and the officials tried hard to persuade him, so they had to disturb the peace of the prime minister, and went to the palace with the subordinate officials to speak out."

Xie Yi pondered for a moment, then said, "Your Majesty, wait a moment, let me change my clothes."

After she said that, she got up and left.

Li Wen felt a little awkward, he didn't like Xie Yi very much, he thought she could not advise the lord, but let her go, she is not a good minister, but in recent years, the prime minister and His Majesty have been separated, and there is a sign of remorse.He is a minister, and he is happy to see him.Moreover, Prime Minister Xie is still very fair and diligent in his actions, and he is loyal to the country, and he gradually does not feel so disgusted.

But now, His Majesty's behavior is out of line, no one can persuade him, and he has no choice but to ask the prime minister.

Li Wen felt quite uncomfortable.

Xie Yi didn't delay for too long, she changed into a curvy dress, light vermilion, embroidered with elegant patterns, her hair was combed again, the jade hairpin reflected the black hair, dignified and decent, her face was lightly applied with powder and daisy, which made her His complexion became less haggard and brighter.

Li Wen stepped aside to let her go first, and he was half a step behind to show his dignity.

Entering the palace, Liu Zao was in the Xuanshi Hall. When she heard that the prime minister and Tingwei had been invited outside, she paused, almost polluting the memorabilia. She settled down, put down her pen, and said lightly, "I call."

Not long after, Xie Yi entered the palace with Li Wen, and Liu Zao's eyes fell on Xie Yi.She went to take care of her body, Liu Zao knew it, and the emperor and the prime minister would not be estranged, so she often gave gifts, or sent people to the prime minister's mansion to inquire about the prime minister's situation, so as to show the harmony between the monarch and his ministers.

But it is better to see each other with our own eyes, separated by the care of the monarch and ministers, separated by etiquette. Liu Zao carefully paid attention to Xie Yi's complexion, and Fang Dan smiled and said, "You two are welcome."

Li Wen and Xie Yi said "Thank you, Your Majesty", and there were eunuchs holding the two seats.They thanked them again and knelt down on the table.

"The two Qing families came together, why?" Liu Zao leaned on the back of the chair and asked with a smile.

Li Wen glanced at Xie Yi, saw that she didn't intend to speak, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and lead the battle, saying, "The minister waited here to persuade His Majesty to take back his promise and not to mention the personal conquest."

Liu Zao's smile faded away, he glanced at him, then looked at Xie Yi, and said, "Prime Minister also wants this?"

Xie Yi straightened up and said respectfully, "I also think that there are soldiers at the border to serve His Majesty, and His Majesty doesn't have to travel around and work hard. He just needs to stay in Beijing and wait for the good news."

As soon as she finished speaking, the emperor's face darkened immediately, he sneered, and said, "It seems that the prime minister doesn't understand me either."

Hearing this tone, Li Wen was startled. Seeing that the emperor was not only angry, but also a little disappointed, he couldn't help but suspect that His Majesty insisted on conscripting himself in order to rebuild his prestige, so that he could have a status with the prime minister in the future.

With this suspicion, Li Wen felt that it was impossible, what they did in private was one thing, but it was another thing to put it on the public face.It has always been the marriage of a man and a woman, and the yin and yang are in harmony, so there is no reason for two women to get married.It is impossible for ordinary people to do this, let alone the king of a country.The emperor is powerful, but he is also a role model for the world. All the people have seen it, how can she be allowed to do anything wrong.

Li Wen felt that he was overthinking.But he thought about it again, if His Majesty really has the intention, regardless of whether it can be done or not, she just wants to have a status with them, and she even does not hesitate to fight against the officials, and is willing to go to the border to be eroded by the wind and sand , bloody sword shadow, but the prime minister did not agree with her, and personally obstructed her, which was very torturous.

He was so engrossed in his own thoughts that he didn't hear what the prime minister said, only heard the emperor say angrily, "Li Qing, step down."

Li Wen was startled, glanced at Xie Yi, hesitated slightly, Liu Zao seemed to be extremely patient, and said with a cold face, "I have something to say to the prime minister."
