Blade of Wind

When Ao Liguang and I were drinking tea and chatting, Nv Yu Yichun came over and asked me when I was going to listen to the King's message.If you plan to talk about it later or tomorrow, you have to send that Qingluan to Wutong Palace to raise it first.If she listened to it in a while, she would put it in the side hall first, and then send it back to the envoy of Gong Guo after listening.

I don't think it's necessary to make such a fuss, since I have nothing else to do, and I didn't treat Li Guang as an outsider, so I asked her to bring Qingluan directly, and I will listen now.

So Yichun went out and brought in the green luan. Just as Suyin was feeding it, he heard a clear and crisp young girl's voice full of enthusiasm: "Listen to me, King Feng, the fifty thousand shi of grain is not given away for nothing. Yours. Just because I put it here, it will be consumed by the refugees in Fangguo sooner or later. If you are not stupid enough to think and be grateful, hurry up and try to find a way for the refugees to have a place to go back. If they continue to stay in Gong Country, I will be very troubled. Really, don't cause trouble for others. "

In a few short sentences, she spoke very fast, and finished speaking quickly.

I looked at that Qingluan and blinked.

Qingluan obviously had nothing to say, she tilted her head to look at me and blinked.

With just a few words, she actually wanted to record them with Qingluan?

Li Guang listened beside him, showing a bit of a dumbfounding expression, "It's really like the style of offering to His Majesty the King."

Ah Ao also had an expression of not knowing what to say, and said: "There are really all kinds of kings in the Twelve Kingdoms. This one sounds like a little girl, right?"

Li Guang nodded, and said: "The current Wang Zhujing was only 12 years old when she became the throne. But don't look at her like this, she has been ruling the world for 90 years."

"Well, I'm also an old man." I replied, so although I was taught by the little girl's voice, I could only listen obediently.

Ah Ao frowned slightly, and said: "Although there is also the case that Gan Luo is 12 years old, but I always feel...as a king, isn't it a little too young..."

"Yeah." Li Guang echoed, smiled and said, "When I saw her just now, I was really surprised by her. The children of the same age were still playing games, and she actually told me to go up the mountain But it's unbelievable that I would believe her. She has such an aura that I feel that as long as she arrives in Pengshan, she will definitely be selected by Qilin."

I recalled the appearance of Zhu Jing in the animation, and I could only nod and agree: "You are really a natural queen."

Ah Ao said: "Actually, what I want to say is that such a small child...carries the burden of the country, and has carried it for decades or hundreds of years...don't you feel a little pitiful?"

When he said those words, the atmosphere instantly became heavy.

Actually... among the kings of the Twelve Kingdoms, who is not?

Once sitting on the Jade Throne, it is a lifetime, no weekends, no holidays, not to mention the eight-hour work system, and their own lives are at stake. Who would dare to do their duty wholeheartedly day and night?

What's worse is that if you don't do it well, you will die within a few years. If you do it well, you will have to work forever, even if you resign.

Therefore, many kings suddenly changed their nature after getting bored, wise rulers became tyrants, and state affairs were deserted and brutal. The difference is only in time.In fact, it is not incomprehensible.

Thinking about this, I frowned, and Ao himself obviously realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, so he pursed his lips and did not make another sound, but it was Li Guang who broke the silence.

Li Guang pointed to Qing Luan and asked, "Xiaojie, do you want to reply to Zhujing?"

After thinking about it, I shook my head, waved my hand and asked Yichun to send the bird back, and said, "Let Yuexi and the others draft official speeches like thanks. Personally, I'd better wait for the real speech." After the refugees are brought back from Fangguo, go and thank her."

Li Guang smiled and said: "The lady just said something bad, you don't have to take it to heart, and you don't have to rush to pick up the refugees. It's better to follow the original plan and take it slowly. As long as When the situation in Fangguo improves, everyone will naturally come back."

"En." I replied, and asked again, "Is this food you persuaded the king to give us?"

Li Guang shook his head and said, "No, it was her own idea. I just happened to pass by there to visit her and come here together."

Hearing what he said, I couldn't help but think of my previous doubts.I didn't have any friendship with Zhujing before, and after I ascended the throne, I didn't have much contact with each other. After more than half a year, I suddenly sent someone to give gifts... I thought it was Li Guang's relationship, but it wasn't.

Li Guang seemed to see my doubts, and continued: "It seems inappropriate to come to congratulate her ascension at this time, but Zhu Jing has her considerations. You know the situation in Fangguo, and the willows in the north are not as good as before. Gong The country is not as good as a country like Yanhezuo, after all, there are only decades of accumulation, and the burden is not light. So I think, Zhujing has been waiting for the past few months, right?"

I looked up at him puzzledly: "Wait and see?"

Li Guang smiled and said: "Do you know that the king was originally from a family of merchants? To invest, of course, it depends on whether the cost can be recovered. If the new King Feng is not successful, he will still be short-lived and lose his way. After a few years Refugees still have to flock to Gong Country, and sending money and food is a waste of money, and she naturally refuses to do business at a loss. So, Zhu Jing's actions, in fact, should be regarded as recognition of you."

I laughed a little self-deprecatingly.

Approved?In the past six months, I have clearly failed to achieve anything and hit a wall everywhere, and I don't know where she can see something that is enough to approve.

"What? Someone recognizes you, so you're not happy?" Li Guang had a mocking smile on his face, "Speaking of which, you surprised me a bit. I've always been very confident in how I see people. , I didn’t expect that there would be times when I looked away.”

I remembered my previous misunderstanding and coughed dryly.

A Ao looked at me and asked, "Why did you miss me?"

"I thought Xiao Jie was a unicorn—"

A Ao originally asked and brought the teapot to refill Li Guang's tea, but he didn't finish his sentence, A Ao directly poured the tea on the table.

"Be careful."

"Ah, sorry."

Ah Ao and I spoke at almost the same time. The maid next to me ran to get a rag to clean it up. Li Guang moved to the side, and the smile on his face became a little strange, "Why? Is there any need to be so surprised?"

Ao apologized again, and then said: "In this world, isn't the unicorn a symbol of kindness and benevolence? Isn't it the most gentle and compassionate creature in the world?"

Li Guang nodded and said, "That's right."

"But this person really has nothing to do with the adjectives just mentioned." A Ao glanced at me, and repeated his tone with emphasis, "Not at all."

My face darkened, but I couldn't find anything to refute for a while, so I simply waved my hand, changed the subject, and said to Li Guang: "Let's not mention that for now. What about your gift? You see, the king is a stranger Everyone has given gifts, so we are more or less friends, right? Are you really ashamed to come empty-handed under the guise of congratulating you on your enthronement?"

Li Guang was much calmer than when he first heard me ask him for a gift in the hall, and said, "Sorry, I just dropped by on the way to travel, and I didn't bring anything. But Xiaojie, don't worry, If Fangguo has any difficulties, Zao will not sit idly by."

I know that the state affairs of the state of play have always been handled by their father, son, brother and sister. With the words of Zhuo Lang Jun Li Guang, it is actually tantamount to the guarantee of the state of play.But my original intention was not for this, so I was a little embarrassed when he said that, coughed lightly, and said: "I don't bother to care about how the country is. I'm just asking you for it. It's just Ouyang Jie is just playing tricks on Li Guang."

"Oh, sorry, I misunderstood."

I confessed that I was cheating, Li Guang laughed out loud, apologized to me, and asked: "So, Xiaojie, what do you want?"

I turned my head and looked at him: "Is everything okay?"

"Of course, if I can do it."

"Then give me a Zouyu." I said this almost without thinking.

Li Guang looked a little surprised, "Hey, Xiao Jie, do you also like riding beasts?"

"I don't really like it, but I think it's very majestic. You see, you ride this, and Shang Long also rides this. It is said that Xiaozong's mount is also Zouyu. I want one too. Originally, I wanted to go to the Yellow Sea to catch it myself." ..." When I said this, Ah Ao's face darkened, so I changed my words, "But it seems that I can't get away for a while, so I have to find another way. You have given beads before Jing is a Zouyu, right?"

"Well, even though I said that...but..." Li Guang scratched his face in a bit of embarrassment, and said, "I didn't bring a riding beast with me this time... I still have to wait until I go back before I can send it to you. "

"It's okay, as long as you remember."

"Of course, I will remember."

I happily made a victory gesture, and I was finally able to get rid of that Meng Ji who rubbed against everyone.
