Chapter 400 Warmth and Lingering
Thinking of the sinister pretty boy cousin from his wife's family, Li Chengxiu nodded in agreement.
"That's true. With Xu Hui's skills and the support of the two of us, he will probably be able to walk around Dongling Mansion with ease.
Okay, I'll issue an imperial decree later.
But Wanjie, what is your purpose in doing this?
Old Liu is a capable man. I originally wanted to give him the position of Vice Minister of Revenue, but isn't there someone in the Minister of Works position now? So, let's just give him the position!
But why bring Old Feng to the capital in advance? "
"Let him go to the Ministry of Revenue!"
Jiang Wan closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead. Li Chengxiu was now very perceptive and very sensibly extended his paw to take over the work.
The massage, neither too light nor too heavy, greatly relieved the swelling and pain in her forehead. She leaned on her husband's shoulder and gently explained his doubts.
"Deng Linlang is extremely capable, but it's a pity that women can't openly take the imperial examinations and enter the officialdom.
Forget it, let’s take it one step at a time.
I turned around and wrote a letter to Dongling Mansion, asking Deng Linlang and Zhao Youyan to go to the capital together to accompany Miao Yue, the leader of the Tongren tribe, to celebrate the New Year together.
If you have anything to say, let’s meet and talk then!”
I opened my eyes, looked up at those slender phoenix eyes, and tried to communicate with him using simple and easy-to-understand words.
"My lord, the Lord always taught us that the best strategy is to conquer the enemy without fighting.
Although the Tongren tribe cannot be considered our enemies for the time being, they are not our subjects either. However, I want them to surrender and become Dayu's subjects."
"Your idea is a bit fanciful. I'm not trying to discourage you, wife, but every tribe has different rules and etiquette, including their writing, language, and beliefs. How can they just surrender? It's difficult!"
"How do you know it won't work if you don't try?"
The smile on her lips was as proud as her father's.
"Now is a golden opportunity. Our Dayu dynasty has only been established for a short time, and all the old rules are waiting to be broken and then established!
The Tongren people are struggling to survive now, and Miao Yue is not a fool. She would not bring her entire clan to join them unless she has no other options.
I guess the Liao people are relying on Linyue to revive and force Tongren into having no place to stand. That's why she wants to come to us and take a gamble."
Li Chengxiu lowered his eyes and thought about his wife's analysis. After a long time, he curled the corners of his mouth cynically.
"Hey, from now on, Miao Laowu and Lao Ji will definitely be able to chat together! These two are a pair of gambling addicts!"
"What are you talking about?"
Glancing amused at the increasingly chatty man, the Queen offered a piece of sound advice.
"If you're really worried, why not have Master Zhao arrange for someone to go to Linyue and find out if it's really as I suspected?"
"I see.
But you called me the wrong name again, wife.
If An Yi knew you didn't address him by his title, he would be angry."
Li Sigouzi has really become a bad boy now. He dares to chatter with anyone no matter who it is. Then, as expected, Boss Wan pinched his ears with his delicate hand.
"Do you still dare to tease me in person?"
"I dare not, I dare not, spare my life, my wife!"
"Wrong, what should you call me?"
"My Lord, please spare my life! I will never dare to do that again..."
"Hmph, that's pretty good!"
The two of them took a break from their busy schedule to have some fun and play around for a while before Jiang Wan sighed.
"Father truly has the heart of a great leader, and he is extremely charismatic!
Thinking back to when the Zhao family committed such a serious mistake and were banished three thousand miles away, it was obvious that the royal family had a deep hatred for the Zhao family.
But in that situation, he was still able to rely on his personal charm to convince Master Zhao and make him willingly move from the open to the dark to become the leader of the secret guards.
The fact that the ruler and his subjects are both trustworthy is truly a rare and beautiful story!"
Li Chengxiu blinked his eyes, feeling that his wife's praise was off the mark, and quickly spoke up to take credit.
"Personally, I think I'm pretty good, and I have some personal charm. Wife, please praise me too!"
"You don't need my praise."
Jiang Wan stretched out his hand in a dashing manner, flicking the well-defined lips lightly in a frivolous but actually teasing manner.
"Whether you did a good job or not, it's useless for me to say. It will be left for future generations to judge. But Li Chengxiu, in my opinion, you are already excellent!
I have never seen a king with a broader mind than you. Thank you for always trusting me. I am grateful that you are willing to unleash my ambitions and let me realize them.
real!
In Jiang Wan's heart, you, Li Chengxiu, are the best emperor throughout history!"
The voice that comes from the bottom of the heart can easily touch people's hearts without any gorgeous embellishments.
Li Chengxiu's phoenix eyes met Jiang Wan's almond eyes, and all the deep affection that was filled with him burst out without being able to be concealed.
"In Li Chengxiu's heart, Jiang Wan is also the best queen in the world!"
He lowered his head and kissed his wife.
Lips and teeth intertwined, warm and lingering.
After a long time, an ambiguous moan came out of the emperor's mouth in a dejected manner.
"I want to be a vegetarian! There are still two and a half years left...ah...ah..."
"Stop howling!"
The Queen's face flushed bright red after being kissed, and she looked so vivid that it would make people's heart beat faster at first sight.
She took a few deep breaths to calm her pounding heart, raised her hand to straighten her slightly messy phoenix robe, and casually hooked the loose hair by her ear.
"Look, is my hair messy?"
"No, no, my wife is so beautiful even with her hair down! Ugh, it's killing me!"
"If you say another word of nonsense, I'll hit you."
"Oh, I'm honest now, please let me go!"
The queen was amused again. She reached out and patted her husband gently, then smoothed his hair for him.
"You're such a mess all day long, you don't have the qualities of a legendary emperor at all! Sometimes I can't believe that a pair of misfits like us could actually secure our throne?
It's clear that Father and the others have really put in a lot of effort! Seriously, Your Majesty, we must continue to work hard to emulate Father and become a wise and powerful emperor!
If possible, it would be best to achieve a harmonious relationship between the ruler and his subjects, so that all the wise, capable and loyal subjects who have worked hard for Dayu can have a decent ending.
When the ruler and his subjects are of one mind, and the mountains and cypresses do not fail, then there will be a prosperous age! "
"Yeah, I know."
Compared with his two outstanding brothers, Li Chengxiu is not very smart, but he is a man of true temperament.
“Don’t employ those you doubt, and don’t doubt those you employ.
The transaction was fair and just.
As long as those officials don't stab me, Li Laosi, in the back, I will definitely not do such immoral things as abandoning the donkey after it has done its work and letting others stab me in the back!"
