The imperial brother kneels and begs me to marry my daughter-in-law

The atmosphere was tense, and Taiwei Wang Chun came out to speak.

"Your Majesty, I believe that victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. General Qian's loyalty to Zhao cannot be negated by one victory or defeat. General Qian has fought in the battlefield for more than ten years and made many contributions. General Qian and the army are really chilling. Besides, I think that General Qian did nothing wrong this time, and Zhou Guo is too cunning.

Colluding with Zheng Chu secretly, and setting up an ambush on the way back, it is hard to guard against!Think about it, Your Majesty, if only the strength of the Zhou Kingdom is used, the country should be subjugated this time.But Zhou Guo not only turned danger into safety, but also turned defeat into victory.All because of Lin Xiu.

30 soldiers lost to a scholar.why?Soldiers who, deception also!If Lin Xiu is used by my country of Zhao, Your Majesty!The world can get it! "

The Taiwei is in charge of the country's military, and military officers are promoted and assessed.This time Qian Jian played, and Wang Chun strongly recommended him.He originally wanted to give Qian Jian a chance to make contributions, but he didn't expect it to be like this today.The Taiwei's daughter is the second prince's concubine, and he belongs to the second prince's faction.If he wants to keep Qian Jian, the only solution right now is to transfer the fault to the prince.

It all happened because the prince missed Lin Xiu.

"It's nonsense! It's not as good as people admit, and there is reason to blame the enemy for being too powerful? Your Majesty! What Wang Taiwei said is biased. It is true that General Qian has made great contributions in more than ten years, but now he has killed more than [-] elites." The teacher is also true! If it is as the Taiwei said, is it possible for meritorious ministers to make mistakes unscrupulously without being held accountable?

This is clearly for His Majesty to reward and punish without rules!When General Qian made meritorious deeds, His Majesty had clothes, so why should he not be punished when he made mistakes? " Gongsun Cheng, the leader of the princeling party, retorted instead.

"Sophistry! I said that Your Majesty should not punish General Qian with a felony. When did you say that you can't punish General Qian? General Qian is guilty, but the crime does not deserve death! If you kill an outstanding general who fought for the country so easily, I, Zhao What do the country's millions of soldiers think?" Wang Chun retorted.

"The soldiers of the Zhao Kingdom are not as narrow-minded as the Taiwei thought. The general made a mistake, so why should he be dealt with by military law?" Prime Minister Gongsun dismissed it.

"Absurd! If all the literati in the world are as cold-blooded as the prime minister, the country of Zhao will be in danger! The prime minister will do his duty with a few words in court, and the generals and soldiers will throw their heads and blood on the battlefield!

While the prime minister was drinking tea and playing music at home, General Qian and the soldiers were still fighting Zhou Jun!The prime minister feels at ease when he wants to discuss the death penalty of General Qian? "Wang Chun is aggressive.

"It's so unreasonable! Your Majesty! Wang Taiwei is clearly..."

"Okay! Stop arguing!" Zhao Cong interrupted the quarrel between the two factions irritably. Is the city of Zhou State to be won by me?"

"Father, my son..." Prince Zhao Duan wanted to say something.

"And you!" Zhao Cong hated iron but steel, "As a prince, you can accomplish nothing! You can't invite anyone! If you can't see someone, won't you wait? If you can't wait, will someone look for you? If you can't invite me, Zhou How did the country invite you? With your current appearance, how can I trust the country to you?"

"Father, I know my mistake! I must go and invite Lin Xiu here!" Zhao Cong's words were serious, and Zhao Cong quickly admitted his mistake obediently.

"Father, my son has something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not." Zhao Rui said.

"Say!" Zhao Cong was very impatient, worrying about one or two.

"Yesterday, my son heard that Lin Xiu is now Zhou Guo's son-in-law. He must be loyal to Zhou Guo, otherwise he would not have married the royal family so soon."

"Married? How long has it been?" Zhao Cong was even more annoyed, why didn't anything go his way.

"Yes, I married Princess Yong'an, King Zhou's sister, and now she is the genuine son-in-law of the Zhou Kingdom, and she can be regarded as a member of the royal family." Zhao Rui continued to stab, "I was blamed at the time. Mr. Lin and I were originally married. For those who are friendly, Mr. Lin has also expressed his willingness to assist Zhao Guo.

But for some reason, Mr. Lin didn't want to see Brother Huang.Perhaps the emperor brother didn't understand Mr. Lin's preferences and offended Mr. Lin unintentionally.If I had been able to go with Brother Huang at that time, maybe the result would have been different. "

"Hmph!" Zhao Cong snorted coldly, out of the two sons, he still prefers the crown prince.Although he knew in his heart that his second son was more capable than the prince, but the prince was more like himself, so he preferred to pamper him.

Although the prince made some mistakes this time, how could Zhao Cong not know Zhao Rui's careful thinking, so he made trouble!As for the fight between the two sons, he didn't see through it, but at this moment he really didn't like Zhao Rui's way of treating the prince.

"What's the use of talking about it now? Be careful, and follow along that day."

"What the father said is that the minister didn't think carefully." Zhao Rui couldn't hear Zhao Cong's displeasure, but he could only admit his mistake, no matter how unwilling he was, he would not show it.

"It's not that Zhao Guo has no talent. If you don't come, you won't come. I don't believe that Zhao Guo can't find someone to compete with Lin Xiu!" After losing his temper, Zhao Cong finally calmed down a little.

"You!" Zhao Cong pointed at Qian Jian in disgust.

"The minister is here!"

"Since the Taiwei pleaded for you, I can spare you. However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living penalty cannot be escaped! From today, I will be removed from the position of general and reduced to the rank of captain!"

"Sir, thank Your Majesty Long En!" Qian Jian heaved a sigh of relief.Fortunately, as long as it is not a capital crime, there is a chance to make a comeback.

The prince and the prime minister were unwilling, but they didn't dare to say anything more at this time, for fear of making the emperor unhappy.

"Let's be like this today! You can't tell the result!" Zhao Cong, who is in his fifties, is irritable, "You all go back and think about what to do next! Let's talk about useful things tomorrow! Don't quarrel all day, my head is getting bigger from you!"

"The minister is terrified!" The ministers said in unison.

Hearing this, Zhao Cong became even more annoyed! "Okay, let's disperse and disperse!"

Since returning from the siege of Mount Ai, Zhao Cong is not as ambitious as before, looking down on the world.Fighting Zhou Guo was also because he tried hard to lift his spirits and wanted to try it. He thought it was easy to get.If so, he might be able to regain his former spirit.

It's just that he feels more tired now, and he has become irritable.Only in the arms of the beauty did he feel a little relief.

Consort House.

Lin Xiu: "Daughter-in-law! Please do me a favor!"

Ever since the two had an awkward quarrel on the night of their wedding, Lin Xiu talked to Xiao Shuan more and more casually, and often made jokes, but Xiao Shuan didn't care.Sometimes I cooperate with Lin Xiu to tease a few words, but most of the time I choose to ignore it, and let Lin Xiu be presumptuous, as long as I don't go out of line.

For example, she called her daughter-in-law, now Xiao Shuan is used to it.When they were two, Lin Xiu was always outspoken and not particular about etiquette.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Shu'an didn't put down the directory in her hand. Recently, she was helping Xiao Jin respectfully select a group of her own people, preparing to practice Lin Xiu's reform.

Lin Xiu pressed down the directory in Xiao Shu'an's hand and asked her to look at her.Xiao Shuan looked up helplessly.

"Do you have a good relationship with the queen mother, your mother?" Lin Xiu asked.

"What for?"

"I want to ask my mother-in-law, but I don't have enough face."

Xiao Shuan smiled, "Is there anything you can ask of me?"

"En!" Lin Xiu nodded.

"I have the conditions." After being with Lin Xiu for a long time, Xiao Shu'an was also able to let go, and now he would occasionally take the initiative to joke or amuse Lin Xiu.

"Ah? There are still conditions? She doesn't look like a daughter-in-law at all." Lin Xiu cried sadly.

"I don't want to, forget it." Xiao Shuan continued to pick up the directory and pretended to be looking at it.

"Don't!" Lin Xiu once again snatched the directory and occupied Xiao Shu'an's sight, "Tell me, I'll see what the conditions are."

"Go to bed on time for a month, and you are not allowed to chat with me before going to bed." Lin Xiu liked to stay up late in modern times, and this problem has not been cured in ancient times.Always go to bed late and wake up late.

In modern times, there is electricity at night, so you can watch dramas and surf the Internet, and do whatever you want.Lin Xiu became a night owl.In ancient times, nights were boring, but Lin Xiu still couldn't change her bad habits.When I was in Linglong Valley, I often read a book with a lamp on when it was bedtime, or watched the moon and drank in the courtyard, but I just didn’t want to sleep.

Now that she is with Xiao Shu'an, she has to go to bed at night, and she can't do without going to bed.Because Xiao Shu'an would extinguish the candles on time.But Lin Xiu couldn't sleep, so she started chatting with Xiao Shu'an.

At first Xiao Shu'an paid attention to her, but later he found that the more he talked to her, the more energetic he became, so Xiao Shu'an ignored her.Sleep with eyes closed, but Lin Xiu, even if you ignore her, she can still talk to herself endlessly.I can still have fun talking about myself!

It was always difficult to wake up in the morning, and Xiao Shu'an himself was made to be in a bad mood during the day.Xiao Shu'an had heard the whispers of the servants in the mansion. They thought that the son-in-law was too brave at night, and the princess couldn't take it anymore.It made Xiao Shu'an very embarrassed, but she couldn't explain it, so she had no choice but to acquiesce.

"One month is too long, isn't it? How about three days?" Lin Xiu counter-offered, but Xiao Shu'an remained indifferent.

"Ten days?"

"..."

"Fifteen days?"

"20 days! It's okay. Don't be so heartless, daughter-in-law!" Lin Xiu cried, but Xiao Shu'an remained indifferent. She was determined to correct Lin Xiu's routine.You can't always go to bed late and wake up late, it's not good for your health.

"All right, all right, one month is just one month. Hey, being a worker is a hard life. It's obviously doing things for the public, but you have to sacrifice your own interests. I'm so miserable!" Lin Xiu lay on the table with her mouth curled up in aggrieved superior.Xiao Shu'an couldn't hold back and stretched out his hand to pinch Lin Xiu's smooth face.

Bringing the legal documents that he had written in the past few days, Lin Xiu and Xiao Shu'an split into two groups as they did on the day of their engagement.

"Princess, you must speak well. I'll go to Your Majesty first and wait for your good news!" Lin Xiu still had a sense of proportion when she went out, and she wouldn't talk nonsense.

"I will do my best, be careful on the road, son-in-law."

"Okay, princess, be careful too."

The two said goodbye and went their separate ways.

"Aiqing wrote very detailed. According to Aiqing, discuss with the ministers in tomorrow's hall?" Xiao Jingong was satisfied after reading the detailed rules of the reform written by Lin Xiu in the past few days.

"What I mean is that the reform should not be rushed, but must be done step by step, steadily. Therefore, I think it is better to start as soon as possible. It is better for the ministers to accept the simplest one first."

"Then according to what Aiqing said, I will announce the detailed rules of the reform tomorrow. You can read this again." Xiao Jingong has not been idle recently, and handed Lin Xiu the order of seeking talents he had written.

Lin Xiu took it and read it carefully one by one, without saying a word for a long time.

"But what's wrong?" Xiao Jingong saw that Lin Xiu was still silent.

Lin Xiu thought about it: "Your Majesty's writing is very good."

"Then why is Aiqing like this?" Xiao Jin respectfully saw that Lin Xiu did not appreciate this order of seeking talents.

Lin Xiu became a little apprehensive after experiencing the barbarian army, and she began to realize the difference between her concept and that of the ancients.In her impression, the emperors of all dynasties, no matter whether they were sincere or false, no one dared to say that any of the former emperors were wrong, right?If you say so, it is unfilial and disrespectful.

But······

"But it's okay to say it!" Seeing that Lin Xiu had concerns, Xiao Jingong encouraged her.

"I feel that His Majesty's sincerity is not enough for this order of seeking talents. I am afraid that those who are truly talented and learned will not come."

"Insufficient sincerity? As the king of a country, I put aside my status to write this decree for seeking talents. My words are sincere and my attitude is respectful. I also said that those who have meritorious deeds can be granted titles and share their land. Isn't sincerity enough for this?" Xiao Jingong couldn't understand. , what else to do.

"It's not a question of interests, but..." Lin Xiu didn't know how to word it, "The talents His Majesty wants to find are those who support the reform and can contribute to the reform, right?"

"Correct."

"Then why does Your Majesty want to reform?" Lin Xiu asked.

"Why change the law? How to improve the law without changing the law? Ai Qing knows why the law needs to be changed? We talked so much in those three days?" Xiao Jingong didn't understand what Lin Xiu wanted to ask.

"I understand, that's because I have already come to Zhou Kingdom, and I have talked with His Majesty for three days at night by candlelight. So I understand His Majesty's determination, and I know His Majesty's heart. But others don't know.

Your Majesty can see why all the countries have reformed their laws, but they have had little effect.Some even go backwards.Even Zhao Guo, the country with the best reforms, is difficult to go deep, and only stays on the surface? "

"Because those in power are not determined enough, and because there is a lack of good ministers with long-term vision like Ai Qing."

This unprepared flattery... is terrible.

"Your Majesty is right, but he didn't mention the most fundamental reason. The essence of the reform is to overthrow the previous law. Why overthrow it? Because you are backward, you want to reform and strive for strength. Then why are you falling behind?" Lin Xiu guided Xiao Jingong.

"Because the original law was flawed and not perfect." Xiao Jingong replied, suddenly, he suddenly realized, "You want me to point out the mistakes of the ancestors?"

"Only in this way can we find real talents. The state of Zhou has been fighting for years, and the system has remained unchanged for hundreds of years. The nobles monopolize most of the country's interests, and the people suffer from hunger and cold. Are the politicians really not at fault for these results?

At the beginning when Han divided the feudal lords, everyone had the same starting point.Why did Zhou Guo come to such a point?And why is Zhao Guo rich and powerful?Now that His Majesty has decided to reform, it would be foolish if he still refuses to admit the bad governance of his predecessors.

If you want to abide by political correctness, cover up mistakes, and insist that all the emperors of the Zhou Dynasty were great and correct.It's all going from strong to strong, so what do people think when they see the Order of Seeking Talents?

To reform is to correct mistakes.If there is nothing wrong, there is no need to change the law.You want to reform again, and you don't recognize Zhou Guo's failures.Then even if there are talents coming, they will be restrained.Your Majesty does not admit that the previous system was not good, and no one dares to propose corrections.

You admit that only the ministers have no scruples and can do things freely.It is also because of this that countries, on the one hand, reform the law, on the other hand, they stay on the surface, and dare not really overthrow the rules set by their ancestors.That's why it fails, or the results are not good. "

Compared to before, Lin Xiu's tone and wrong tone are much gentler now.And Xiao Jingong is more tolerant when facing Lin Xiu. He will not get angry when he hears uncomfortable remarks, but will carefully consider Lin Xiu's words.

This question is essentially the same as the core of the previous debate.It is still a matter of face, requiring the monarch of a country to publicly criticize the past generations and admit the shortcomings and inadequacies of his own country.There is no such thing as ancient or modern.

"Aiqing is always so unique when looking at problems." Xiao Jingong smiled helplessly. Lin Xiu always seemed to think deeper than him, which made him sometimes curious about what kind of books to read in order to see such thinking.

"I have thought back on Aiqing's words for a long time during the quarrel that day. Aiqing was right. Instead of trying her best to maintain her external face, she really wanted to make things easier for the people. What's more, the current state of Zhou Not qualified to talk about face.

I will rewrite it.Write what you mean. "

Lin Xiu couldn't help admiring Xiao Jingong even more. As the emperor of a feudal empire, he could let go of his own face like this, and he could ignore the opinions of the world and the records of the official historian.Only for the prosperity of the country and the stability of the people.In this alone, he has surpassed too many emperors.

"Your Majesty is wise, I believe that the people of Zhou Kingdom will also be grateful for His Majesty's wiseness."

"Okay, don't flatter me. You still have to go to your mother's place? I'll go with you." Xiao Jingong got up.

"it is good."

Lin Xiu and Xiao Jingong went to Yongshou Palace together.Xiao Shu'an had already informed the queen mother of Lin Xiu's request.

"Empress Mother, I've come to see you." Xiao Jingong smiled and flattered him as soon as he entered.Empress Dowager Chen knew at a glance that this was another lobbyist.A son and a daughter are being manipulated by one person, Chen Qingpei feels uncomfortable.

"Chen, I pay my respects to the Queen Mother!" Lin Xiu was very respectful, and she dared not act wild in front of the Queen Mother.

The queen mother's face darkened, and she didn't want to talk to Lin Xiu.

Lin Xiu's heart tightened, why didn't she hear the call for excuses?Does the queen mother have opinions on herself, making things difficult for herself every time?

"Mother's queen..." Xiao Jingong quietly reminded Lin Xiu.Lin Xiu didn't hear clearly, and looked up at Xiao Jingong suspiciously.The queen mother made a plan to kill her, Xiao Jingong hurriedly sat upright, not daring to say more.

Here Xiao Shu'an hurriedly made a mouth shape again. 'Mother. '

Lin Xiu suddenly realized that she was married!

"My son, pay respects to the queen mother!" She hastily saluted again.

"Well, sit down." Seeing her son and daughter like this, the Queen Mother didn't want to embarrass Lin Xiu anymore.Lest it turns out that my darling is still distressed.

"I agree with what you said." The queen mother said bluntly as soon as Lin Xiu took her seat.

The aristocrats of the Zhou Kingdom monopolized the government, and because of this, the clans were closely connected.In addition to the national system, the nobles also have their own clan system and their own clan leaders.It can be said that it is a small court outside the court.

And the two most powerful clans in Zhou State, one is the Xiao family and the other is the Chen family.As the emperor and the eldest son, Xiao Jingong should have inherited the position of the suzerain of the Xiao clan.Although her mother, the Chen family, is a woman, she is not light in the clan because of her status as the queen mother.

In the Chen clan, Empress Dowager Chen has a place to speak.In the Xiao clan, the Empress Dowager Chen was the first wife of the first emperor, and when she was the empress dowager, all members of the clan were courtiers regardless of their clan status.Empress Dowager Chen's words also carry weight. The old ministers who worked hard with the late emperor had some affection for Empress Dowager Chen.

Based on the special status of Queen Mother Chen.Lin Xiu wanted the queen mother to brush her face before she went to fight with the officials tomorrow.To put it simply, it is to take advantage of the Empress Dowager's favor to win over some neutral or less strongly opposed reforms.

Not everyone will be against the reform.If the reform can strengthen Zhou, some loyal ministers will support it.While it may be few, it's better than nothing.Among the ministers Xiao Shu'an described to Lin Xiu, Chen Yunjian was the one who could be wooed.

Xiao Shu'an believed that Chen Yunjian was loyal to the state of Zhou and not to the prime minister. If the queen mother and the emperor brother asked, Chen Yunjian would not refuse.And with the support of a weighty military officer, the risk of reform is much smaller.

Stealing other people's sweethearts, and asking others to stand for him.Lin Xiu's heart breaks for the general just thinking about it.

"Thank you, Empress." Lin Xiu respectfully thanked her.

"You don't need to thank me." Empress Dowager Chen laughed at herself, "Perhaps Da Zhou should thank you."

"I don't dare!" Lin Xiu was frightened. The Queen Mother spoke like this, it was too scary.

"You don't have to be modest, you really have a lot of ideas. I also think it's feasible. If the reform can be successful, I don't mind putting in a little more effort." The queen mother still admired Lin Xiu very much.In the past few days, I also heard Xiao Jingong tell her a lot of Lin Xiu's ideas and thoughts.She has to admit that this is a capable and virtuous minister.

It is also a blessing to have such a virtuous minister.It would be great if Lin Xiu was also a blessing to Shu An.

"Jin Xia, pass on the meal." The Empress Dowager ordered the maid beside her. "We're married, we're a family, let's treat it as a family feast."

"No." Several people said in unison.

After lunch, Xiao Shu'an and Lin Xiu returned home.

"Are you alright living in the son-in-law's mansion?" On the carriage, Lin Xiu suddenly thought of this question.

If someone else asked, Xiao Shu'an would feel that the other party didn't want to stay in the consort's mansion.But she already knew Lin Xiu now, so she wouldn't think too much about Lin Xiu's question.This person is simply ignorant of some common sense.

"No problem." Xiao Shuan said.Zhou Guomin's style of aggressiveness is good and bad.The bad thing is that it is rude and unruly, not as refined and stylish as other countries.The advantage is that there is not so much red tape and not too much attention.It is also rare for someone to stare at whether other people's behavior conforms to the etiquette norms and say something.

"Oh, that's pretty good." Lin Xiu felt relieved. She thought it would be like the TV show where the princess lights up the lamp to summon the son-in-law to go.What kind of husband and wife are they called? Husband and wife should live together all the time, get along day and night, and never separate.

Although they were not a real couple, the reason why Lin Xiu didn't want to separate was very simple.With Xiao Shu'an, she will be well taken care of and fed well.With such a wife, who wants to separate?
