Chapter 355 Lord, Stop Making Trouble
After Maidong and Lu Yu got married, they were busy with business and had no daily trivial matters to quarrel about.
Even if there was a dispute, it was a business dispute. However, Maidong had his own business, and Lu Yu had his own business. When the relationship was good, they would cooperate in business together. When the relationship was not good, they would each take care of their own business.
Ophiopogon japonicus can be handled calmly.
But it doesn’t work on land.
He felt that if his wife left him, he would not be a man at all. If his wife did not rely on him, would he still be a reliable man?
Therefore, he always apologizes first.
Otherwise, the lady would not allow him to go back to his room to sleep.
Knowing that they were coming back today, Gao Wanxin was busy asking the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous meal.
Lu Yu took Mai Dong to pay a visit to the old lady first. After returning today, they stayed at the Zhao family first to rest for a while and then went to the Chen family of the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow.
Maidong wanted to go back to the Marquis' Mansion as soon as she came back. She almost forgot that she was now a married woman and no longer an unmarried girl.
And on the side of the Chen family of the Marquisate.
Yunqiao also had someone prepare a rich meal early in the morning, just waiting for Maidong to come back so that they could cook it.
But no matter how long I waited, no one came.
Yun Qiao was anxious, and Li Yuan, who was holding the baby, was also anxious.
"Look at what time it is now? Maidong hasn't come back yet? Could he have been delayed on the way?"
Li Yuan asked Xiang Yunqiao anxiously.
Yun Qiao looked at her. "You're still in confinement, and you look so anxious. It's still early, and I guess something happened on the way back and delayed you. Take care of yourself and the baby first, and don't think too much. When Maidong comes back, I'll send someone to tell you."
Yun Qiao came to see Li Yuan and the child, and stayed here for half an hour.
It's time to leave.
"You take a rest first. I'll go take a look in the front yard."
Li Yuan asked the maid to send it off. Yun Qiao walked to the east courtyard and happened to meet Chen Jingyan coming out of the study.
"My Lord, are you going out?"
Ever since Chen Jingyan learned a lot of skills in modern times, he has had endless things to do when he returned. What he has to do now is to reform the military camp.
But the young emperor was worried about where the responsibilities of the commander-in-chief would fall if Chen Jingyan carried out military reforms.
Now the army is divided into three armies. The emperor has one copy of the order for the three armies, the military commander has one copy, and the other copy is in the hands of Chen Jingyan. Because he led troops in battle for many years, the order for the three armies was originally in his hands.
If reforms are to be carried out and unified operations are to be waged, then the document in His Majesty's hand must be given away...
Chen Jingyan was talking about the division of power, which should not be concentrated in the hands of any one person.
But the emperor felt that Chen Jingyan might be using this as an excuse to take away the military power from the emperor and give it all to him, Chen Jingyan.
Therefore, the military camp reform and the distribution of military power cannot be carried out.
It was like Zhao Xuan was going to implement a new policy, divide the city economy into counties, and provide financial subsidies based on local characteristics, so as to make some people rich first, and let the rich people create more valuable jobs that could be provided to the common people.
But the emperor did not support any of these.
Zhao Xuan and Chen Jingyan have been very busy recently.
Yun Qiao rarely saw Chen Jingyan during the day. He was either outside or in the study. Normally, Yun Qiao would go to the study to bring him some food, but would not disturb him and would come out soon.
Chen Jingyan saw Yun Qiao and said, "I'm not busy today. I came to see you."
"Wuying just came with the news that Maidong has returned."
"Didn't the Zhao family send anyone to deliver the message?"
Yun Qiao said, "I was playing with the kids at Yuanniang's place and didn't pay attention to what was happening in the front yard."
As he was speaking, he heard a maid coming from the outer courtyard, "Your Highness, the Zhao family has sent a message saying that Miss Maidong has returned. She is pregnant and shouldn't overwork herself, so she said she won't come today and will be back tomorrow morning."
"Who sent this message?" Yun Qiao asked.
The maid replied, "She is Madam Zhao's maid.
"But how many months pregnant are you?" Yun Qiao asked with a happy look on her face. "Our mansion is really prosperous. The meals should be adjusted according to the Ophiopogon japonicus. You can't eat too much seafood when you are pregnant. Change the seafood a little. Don't make it raw or cold. Make it well-cooked."
Yun Qiao said in a low voice.
Chen Jingyan also laughed.
"Look at you, my sister-in-law, you really care about me."
"Of course not. I only have one biological sister, so I have to pay attention to her. Besides, you are going to be my uncle, Lord. Are you happy?"
Chen Jingyan smiled and said, "I'm happy. I have another relative."
Yun Qiao asked Chen Jingyan if he was going out this afternoon?
Chen Jingyan said that there was nothing important, so he would not go. Besides, some things could not be rushed, so he just took his time.
Yun Qiao asked him if there was anything else?
The two returned to the house and chatted for a while while walking.
"My Lord, don't rush to implement all the military books and tactics you've read in modern times, as well as the political and military policies you've learned about. Furthermore, they might not be very suitable for the Great Zhou. We can select some that can be used by the Great Zhou and conduct small-scale trials first."
"My Lord has his own people in Mobei. We can set up a test military zone first."
Chen Jingyan was enlightened when he heard Yun Qiao's words. He said immediately, "Madam, your suggestion is a good idea."
"I'll work out a plan right away."
Yun Qiao said, "My Lord, this matter cannot be resolved through mere talk. You must go to Mobei if necessary. However, His Majesty is still worried about you. If you go, you can take advantage of the situation in Nancheng to go to Mobei."
In the south city, the assassin sent by Chen Jingyan assassinated Su Mo.
It took half a month to get rid of Su Mo.
Unexpectedly, this offended Xiao Lan.
Xiao Lan felt that Chen Jingyan murdered Su Mo because he loved Su Mo and couldn't get her, so he killed her.
When Su Mo was killed, she was actually pregnant with Xiao Lan's child.
Therefore, Xiao Lan was very dissatisfied with Chen Jingyan and frequently caused disturbances in Nancheng. However, they had a hundred-year peace agreement before, so Xiao Lan did not dare to act rashly. But he felt aggrieved for remaining silent, so he tried to find something for Chen Jingyan to do.
I don't fight, but I just want to cause trouble for you.
In order to solve this problem, Chen Jingyan still has to go to South City.
Yun Qiao knew about this matter because it was about Xiao Lan, and Xiao Lan had some relationship with her.
Yun Qiao asked him, "Lord, do you need me to go to South City with you?"
Chen Jingyan: "Do you want to go? I'm afraid Xiao Lan still misses you."
Yun Qiao smiled and said, "That happened so long ago. Is it because the Marquis is still holding a grudge against me?"
After saying this, Yun Qiao turned around and found a comfortable chair to sit down.
After chatting for a while, Chen Jingyan and Yun Qiao talked about the economic reforms in the military camp and Kyoto. Yun Qiao felt that the economy still needed to be reformed, otherwise it would not be able to develop at all. If the national strength was not good, how could the army be strong?
Without a strong army, how can we protect the stability of the country?
After chatting for quite some time, Yun Qiao was really exhausted and half-lying on the chair.
"Lilac, bring some food. Your master is starving to death."
Dingxiang brought a bowl of bird's nest with a smile, "If I had known that His Highness and the Marquis were chatting in the house, I would have asked the kitchen to stew it. Sister Xiaotao took a portion for the young lady and reminded me to bring some to you, saying that Your Highness usually eats little and gets hungry easily."
Yun Qiao smiled lightly, "Xiao Tao is still considerate."
"Your Highness, am I not considerate?" Dingxiang pouted and said coquettishly in a low voice.
"You are all thoughtful." Yun Qiao said.
Dingxiang then smiled happily and brought the bird's nest to Yunqiao and served her.
Chen Jingyan was a little hungry at this moment, perhaps because he had talked too much.
"You only brought food to your Highness? No food for my Lord?"
Ding Xiang hurriedly said, "My Lord, what do you want to eat? I'd like someone to cook it right now, but this bird's nest is only for Your Highness."
"Your Highness, please eat slowly. Be careful of the heat."
Looking at the maids and servants in the mansion, they were all loyal to Yun Qiao, the Marquis' wife, but kept their distance from him, the Marquis.
"You've won over everyone in my mansion."
Chen Jingyan sighed.
Yun Qiao chuckled and said, "My Lord, look at what you're saying. Yours and mine are all ours, aren't they? In the future, they will also belong to our children."
"You ignorant girl, hurry up and serve the bird's nest to the Marquis."
Chen Jingyan snorted, but moved closer to Yun Qiao and took a sip from her bowl.
Then he said with disdain: "It's too sweet, Madam, you should drink it yourself."
"Chen Jingyan, stop making trouble..."
The maidservant lowered her head and covered her mouth, not daring to laugh.
