I Rely on Beauty to Stabilize the Country

On the second day, after watching the she-wolf give birth, Xue Yuan became busy.

In the palace, he carefully listened to the Holy Majesty discussing with others.When the Holy Majesty taught Gu Ran, he also meditated.After returning home, he locked himself in the study and read with a book.

Xue Yuan almost forgot to sleep and eat, crazily filling himself up.His disciples also became active, wanting to get various files, telling the eldest son the twists and turns from all directions one by one.

Xue Yuan is the proud son of heaven, when he seriously wants to do something, almost no one can stop him.

And he blatantly made a gesture of entering the court.

Gu Yuanbai soon found out about this.

In the original text, the regent is powerful and moody.Gu Yuanbai often watched the farce unfolding in his eyes with a half-smile. Gu Yuanbai didn't know why Xue Yuan turned into such an unfathomable appearance. Gradually settle down to stability.

Gu Yuanbai raised his eyebrows.

He couldn't help thinking, if Xue Yuan really entered the court, what kind of performance would he show?

Will this silly guy fall in love with the feeling of power?

Gu Yuanbai not only had the expectation that he could make some achievements, but also had a long-lost desire to conquer to meet the challenge.

He's also a crazy guy.He wanted to watch Xue Yuan bloom his own light and appreciate his strength.This kind of strength should not be smoothed because of Gu Yuanbai, he even thought about what kind of confrontation they would have if he met the regent who had left the battlefield in the original text and fell into ups and downs in the officialdom.

When he thought about it, he trembled. Gu Yuanbai's nerve of challenge even wanted to promote Xue Yuan to a high position, and then crush him severely.

But this is just a thought.

Today's Daheng should develop steadily and should not go through useless twists and turns.

Gu Yuanbai suppressed such thoughts, and began to teach him consciously or unconsciously, but Xue Yuan lived up to expectations, he absorbed knowledge and keen political intuition, which almost made him rush into the court circle like a wolf.

Seeing him like this, Gu Yuanbai smiled, and transferred Xue Yuanzeng to the Privy Council with the merit of protecting him during Xixia.

A month later.

Xue Yuan's dark official robe was raised and rolled between his steps, and the coat behind him fluttered. After entering the palace, he swept off the snow on his body, and walked to the stove to get rid of the cold air: "Is your majesty awake?"

The palace attendant took his cloak carefully, "Master Xue came a little earlier, the Holy Majesty hasn't gotten up yet."

Xue Yuan smiled, and entered the inner hall after his palms became warm.Half an hour later, the Holy One came out with Mr. Xue neatly dressed, and the meal was set. Gu Yuanbai took the jade chopsticks handed over by Xue Yuan, and said lazily: "Just let others come forward to serve you."

Xue Yuan said: "I like to serve the Holy Majesty."

The hot porridge exudes a strong rice fragrance, and the two slowly ate their breakfast, talking in a low voice.

Tian Fusheng waited in front of the palace gate, Master Xue did not forget to take care of His Majesty's clothes and three meals a day even after he got busy, which made him useless as an inner court chief.After a long time, Tian Fusheng also got used to this leisurely life. As long as Mr. Xue is here, he will not go forward to please, just be lazy.

After finishing the meal, the palace attendant took away the things.Gu Yuanbai said, "Something happened to the salt merchants in Huainan, I'm going to ask you to take someone there to investigate." He paused, "Do you want to go?"

Xue Yuan nodded, "Go."

As early as when Xue Yuan wanted to become a capable minister that the Holy One could rely on, he knew that such things were indispensable.The brief separation was just to keep the two of them inseparable in the future, Xue Yuan thought for a long time, and finally convinced himself.

Most importantly, the Holy One didn't seem to want Xue Yuan to be trapped by his side.If the Holy Majesty wants him to go, then he will go.

Even if Xue Yuan is happy with it.

Xue Yuan sighed secretly in his heart, he needs meritorious service now, urgently needs meritorious service.

Gu Yuanbai really smiled, "I don't know when you will be able to come back on this snowy day."

"It will take a month at the earliest." Xue Yuan held his hand and sighed, "On the day of Shangyuan Festival, I hope that the Holy Lord will leave me with a day for the sake of my leaving. "

Gu Yuanbai hooked his thick callused fingers, and let out a "hmm".

After being on duty, Xue Yuan returned to the mansion.He was full of travel and dust, and the old general Xue called him over, and said solemnly: "Xue Yuan, the Holy Majesty values ​​you, and you must serve the Holy Majesty well. My Xue family has been loyal for three generations, and loyalty to the emperor is the first rule in the family law. If you If you do something that violates human relations, it is worse than a beast, and I will be the first to spare you!"

Xue Yuan nodded casually. It seemed that he didn't hear the old general Xue's words, which made the old general Xue furious, "You don't want to harm the Xue family! I would rather you be mediocre than mediocre. Your skills are so high!"

Xue Yuan sighed, "I never wanted to be high."

Old General Xue didn't believe it, "If you don't want it, why are you making constant moves these days?"

"General Xue, you should know," Xue Yuan pursed his lips, "If I want military merit, I can do it with my hands. Those military merits in the past were not high? It's all at your fingertips."

He lowered his voice, "What I want is not something that is readily available."

He wanted to be by Gu Yuanbai's side for the rest of his life.

Entanglement and entanglement, even if you give up your feelings, you are destined to be inseparable for a lifetime.

Another half month later, Kong Yilin and Xue Yuan walked out of the Privy Council.Kong Yilin was born extremely tall, Xue Yuan was no different from him, the two walked slowly, Kong Yilin smiled and said: "Master Xue is going to travel soon?"

Xue Yuan nodded and smiled, "After I leave, if Your Majesty feels unwell, please write to me more often, Mr. Kong."

"After a letter is passed, you will all come back," Kong Yilin laughed dumbly, and subtly persuaded, "The Holy Majesty is the Ninth Five-Year Lord. Even Manager Tian can't look at the Holy Majesty all day long."

Xue Yuan pressed his tongue to his palate, squinted his eyes and smiled, "Master Kong doesn't know."

Kong Yilin was curious: "Oh, I don't know what?"

"The Holy One doesn't like Chief Tian following him day and night," Xue Yuan showed a look of reminiscence, "but he likes me so much that I follow him."

Kong Yilin choked.

Xue Yuan smiled, and tidied up his sleeves slowly, "Even though the inn is slow, I am anxious, so I still have to entrust Master Kong. As for the others, I have to trouble Master Kong to pay more attention."

Kong Yilin knowingly asked, "Lord Chu?"

"Not just him, other young, handsome, and strong ones," Xue Yuan counted one by one, "The Holy One likes this."

Kong Yilin couldn't hold back and said, "Isn't Master Xue really praising himself?"

Master Xue raised his eyebrows and smiled leisurely.

The Holy One likes strong people.

As for wolves, we must choose the most ferocious one to mate.

Shangyuan Festival.

Gu Yuanbai changed into his regular clothes, while Xue Yuan was already waiting in the outer hall.When he turned around and saw him, he was stunned for a long time, and praised without blinking his eyes: "Pan An Weijie is far behind in the posture of the sage."

Gu Yuanbai snorted and walked over slowly. Xue Yuan stretched out his hand and straightened the jade pendant around his waist. The beautiful jade made a sound of colliding, and Xue Yuan flicked his fingertips, "It sounds good."

This is the second time that Gu Yuanbai and Xue Yuan spent the Lantern Festival together. The night was slightly dark and the lights were brightly lit, and they held hands together unknowingly.The shoulders are squeezed together intimately, and when they turn their heads occasionally, their lips will brush against their foreheads.

"I brought my salary." Xue Yuan bought the lantern that Gu Yuanbai had looked at more, "Whatever the Holy Majesty wants, I have enough money."

Gu Yuanbai was very appreciative and gave him two applause.

"Do you still remember, Your Majesty?" Xue Yuan deliberately lowered his voice as he walked through an alley, "I once pressed you down in this alley to kiss you."

Gu Yuanbai clicked his tongue, "I remember."

Xue Yuan and him looked at each other amidst the colorful lanterns, their breathing became heavy and hot, their hands were pulled, and they went to the dark alley again.

It was still the same cold air, the same water droplets, and the same panting and chaotic kiss.

Gu Yuanbai opened his lips to respond to him, and kissed him back even more fiercely.Xue Yuan panted to comfort him, "No hurry, take your time, even slower."

Gu Yuanbai couldn't breathe, and felt both exhilarated and uncomfortable. He glared at Xue Yuan, and finally cursed what he wanted to curse a long time ago: "Get out of here, slow down!"

Xue Yuan laughed until his chest trembled.

One night passed, and before dawn the next day, Xue Yuan woke up from the bed.There were bright red scratches and hickey marks on his chest and neck, Xue Yuan admired it for a while, then gently woke up the Holy One, coaxing him to draw another deep mark between the neck.

The Holy Majesty was extremely sleepy, he was annoyed so annoyed, he clenched his teeth after inhaling for a while, and the smell of blood burst into his lips in an instant.

Xue Yuan hissed, Gu Yuanbai tried hard to open his eyes, and subconsciously licked the blood on his lips.Xue Yuan looked down at him for a long while, and moved the other side of his neck up.

Today is the day to travel, Xue Yuan packed himself up and said goodbye to his parents with the marks on his neck.

General Xue and Mrs. Xue chattered a few times in the bedroom. After a while, General Xue put on his coat and came out, "Go."

Xue Yuan leaned over to salute, in the faint sky, Old General Xue seemed to see some traces left between the sheets on his neck.

Old General Xue was startled, Xue Yuan had already put on a thick cloak, turned around and left.

The old general was stunned for a while, unable to sleep any longer, he walked to Xue Yuan's door unknowingly.Outside Xue Yuan's courtyard were guards from the palace. Old General Xue walked over, the chief guard raised his sword to stop him, and said softly: "General Xue, Your Majesty is still resting."

Old General Xue froze, his knees softened, and he knelt heavily on the ground.

The matter of Huainan salt merchants was very deep, Xue Yuan led people to investigate, and found out about illegal salt.

Since Xixia was annexed by Daheng and renamed Ningxia, the green salt of Xixia is naturally no longer private salt.Many salt dealers who relied on Xixia Qingyan to sell illicit salt were hit hard, and because the salt mines in Zhejiang and Zhejiang were put into the market, the official salt fell, and there was almost no room for illicit salt to survive.

The huge interests of the salt merchants and the strong suppression by the government caused chaos in Huainan and Jiangnan.

Jiangnan has been harmed by the rebel army before, but there are not many big and powerful people, but there are many small shrimps and crabs.Coupled with the complex situation of merchants coming and going in Huainan, Xue Yuan restrained his temper and participated in the banquet every day. After a long time, he was able to keep his face.

Communicating with all kinds of people, secretly conveying news, being in the middle of it is the most training of people's skills.Xue Yuan's brows and eyes became more and more calm, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became deeper and deeper. Occasionally, he glanced at him, and he seemed to be a very easy-going gentleman.

Time dragged on, and it dragged on for another month.

Xue Yuan smiled and bid farewell to the Lu family in Huainan, and after entering the mansion prepared for him by the local government, he felt something was wrong.

He raised his eyebrows, and when he entered the door, it turned out that someone sent him two women, who were standing beside the bed in tulle in the bedroom.

"Go back," Xue Yuan frowned in disgust, turned around and exited the courtyard, and kicked the servant who guarded the door when he went out, "You let anyone in his mother?!"

The boy guarding the door was so frightened that he pissed off, and quickly knelt down, "I know my mistake, I don't dare anymore."

Xue Yuan's face was gloomy, dark clouds rolled over his usual smiling face.

The boy came up to the ground in fear and cried bitterly, holding his calf, saying "wronged" and "bewildered".Xue Yuan kicked him hard again, and said harshly, "I have established rules."

Thinking of what this young man had done, he was not venting enough, and exerted great strength, and the young man pouted over with one kick.

"Take it down," Xue Yuan said with a blank expression, "All those things in the bedroom were burned."

The subordinate said: "Yes."

Xue Yuan looked to both sides, stared at one of them and said, "Did you see clearly? I didn't touch those two women."

Pretending to be an officer of the Supervision Office under Xue Yuan: "... I see clearly, Mr. Xue."

Only then did Xue Yuan feel his anger subside a little.

After the news got out, the merchants outside who were trying to send someone to Xue Yuan stopped doing so.

As for the salt merchant, I thought it could be done in January at the earliest.But Xue Yuan ignored the intermingling of interests, and it took two and a half months until he found out the signs and rectified them.

When Xue Yuan hurried back to the capital, it was already the season of spring and flowers blooming.
