Lan Wuqing's words made Xue Poye feel a strange atmosphere hanging in the air.
"Prime Minister, you are worrying too much. You and I are loyal to the country. At least in the eyes of the Holy Emperor, we will never be the ones who deserve to die." Xue Poye touched his nose and said calmly.
Lan Wuqing sighed: "I hope so." After a pause, he added: "Master Xue, after the royal wedding, you can personally govern. The power in our hands should be delegated. The more power we have, even if
Your Majesty will not mind, but I am afraid that many courtiers will feel that we have too much power and belong to the... high-power lord. At that time, we may become the ones who deserve to die!"
Lan Wuqing's words can be said to be extremely straightforward.
Xue Poye frowned. He didn't know whether Lan Wuqing wanted to say these words himself, or whether someone behind the scenes instigated him to say them.
"Your Majesty has great ambitions and acts decisively!" Lan Wuqing said slowly: "He will eventually become the Ming Lord!"
…
Back at the General Guard's Mansion, Xue Poye first went to see Xiao Suzhen, Green Lady, Xiao Lingxian and Xiao Yuezhu were also talking to Xiao Suzhen. Yuezhu even started to prepare clothes for the unborn child, but Sumayu was not here.
.
After chatting with several women for a while, Xue Poye came to Sumayu's yard.
Sumayu's courtyard was very quiet.
He didn't notice Xue Poye coming in for a while, but just looked at it in front of the bronze mirror. He compared several pieces of clothing and shook his head, feeling quite unhappy.
Xue Poye closed the door gently, walked tiptoe to Sumayu, and said softly: "My little mare, why are you unhappy?"
Sumayu called out "Ah", turned around, and saw that it was Xue Poye, then she patted her plump breasts and said, "Brother Chou Shi, you almost scared me."
Xue Poye laughed, stepped forward, picked up a piece of clothing, and said, "What's wrong? Don't you look good in Hu clothes? Why do you wear Chu people's clothes?"
Sumayu, who is usually cheerful and cheerful, is a little shy at this time: "Brother Chou Shi, wearing Hu clothes with several sisters, some... well, our Hu people's clothes naturally look good, but... but you Chu
People say that if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog. If I follow you, I will have to learn the rules of the Chu people...!"
Xue Poye sighed, stepped forward to hold Sumayu's hand, and said softly: "Sumayu, you are wearing the clothes of a barbarian, you are beautiful and tight, don't follow any rules to change yourself, you know, the grassland
You are the one Brother Chou Shi likes the most, and that is the most real you."
Sumayu was quite moved, nodded, and quickly said softly: "But...but Sumayu thinks that Chu Ren's clothes will look good after putting them on?" After saying that, he looked at the table with some envy.
pile of clothes.
Xue Poye laughed.
He suddenly understood that Sumayu did not necessarily want to change herself. It was really difficult for this fierce-tempered mare to change. She just saw that Chu Ren's dress was more beautiful and wanted to try it.
After all, women all love beauty, whether they are Hu people or Chu people, they are still women after all.
Compared with the fur clothes of the Hu people, the clothes of the Chu people are naturally much more exquisite and gorgeous. No wonder Sumayu likes them. Although it cannot be denied that the Hu people are loyal to their own culture and customs, there are many things about the Chu people that are enough to impress the Hu people.
Forming a great temptation, such as the temptation of these clothes to women.
Xue Poye felt that this was a good thing. From Sumayu's body, Xue Poye saw that after the Beihu trade with Dachu, large-scale cultural exchanges would definitely achieve great success.
Because both sides have cultures that attract each other.
The culture of the Central Plains has a long history!
Picking up a light blue dress, Xue Poye said: "Try this one, you will definitely look beautiful after wearing it."
Sumayu took the dress and said with a bit of shyness: "Brother Chou Shi, then... then you go out and I will change my clothes!"
Xue Poye touched his nose and chuckled: "Sumayu, children of the grassland, don't be coy. I'm about to marry you. You're almost my woman. There's nothing to shy away from."
Although Sumayu knew that what he said was true, it would not be a bad idea to take off his clothes in front of his man on the grassland and reveal his proud figure, but in this quiet little wing, it was quite strange.
The quiet and pleasant atmosphere made her a little reluctant to let go, but she couldn't chase Xue Poye out, so she had to take her clothes and move behind the screen.
Xue Poye looked through the screen and saw a beautiful figure with plump breasts and butt taking off her clothes and changing clothes. Her heart was really shaken. After returning from the northwest, she didn't really want Sumayu's body. At this time, she saw
Seeing those two plump balls of flesh, the shadows of the balls bounced up and down with Sumayu's movements, and he couldn't help feeling thirsty.
When Sumayu walked out from behind the screen, Xue Poye's eyes were a little straight.
In fact, from a certain point of view, this dress does not fit well. It is a bit tight when worn on the plump Sumayu, but it is exactly tight, which completely outlines Sumayu's hot figure.
The spectacular waves on her chest are hard to hide, and her beautiful buttocks are like waves. This Central Plains dress is worn on Sumayu, and her elegance reveals an indescribable temptation.
"Does it look good?" Sumayu opened his arms and asked with a smile.
Xue Poye walked over, walked around Sumayu, looked at it carefully, and sighed: "Stunning, really stunning!"
Sumayu was surprised, but she felt that Xue Poye had hugged her from behind, and her breathing was a little short: "Brother Choushi...!"
"Sumayu, you call this uniform temptation!" Xue Poye seemed to have a ball of flames about to shoot out from his body. His hands couldn't help but climb up to Sumayu's plump breasts. The elasticity reached the extreme, and he couldn't help but kiss her.
Holding Sumayu's snow-white neck, he whispered: "My little mare, Brother Choushi wants to tame you. He wants to tame this wild mare like you!"
Sumayu was not as delicate as the women from the Central Plains. Instead, she was happy with Xue Poye's reaction, which at least meant that her body was completely attracted to Brother Chou Shi.
"Brother Choushi, you... do you want Sumayu to be your woman?" Sumayu gently shook her plump skin and felt that there seemed to be something pressing against her butt in Xue Poye's lower body.
.between seams.
Xue Poye picked up Sumayu, walked to Chuntan, put the wild beauty on the bed, and said softly: "I want you to be my woman, and I want to tame your mare!"
When the two were naked and facing each other, Xue Poye was even more attracted to Sumayu's toned body.
This is a love that Xue Poye has never experienced before.
Although this was Sumayu's first real attempt at love, unlike the shy women from the Central Plains, she was very open-minded.
The green lady was extremely slutty when having sex under the bed, but compared with Sumayu, she had a different demeanor. Sumayu was more active and aggressive, using every part of her body.
Partly, using her mouth, her plump breasts, and her pair of round legs, the dominant position gave Xue Poye the greatest visual and sensory impact.
This is truly a wild mare, a woman full of wildness.
When Xue Poye really tamed this wild mare, he was already exhausted. There is no doubt that in terms of the wildness on the bed and on the bed alone, Xue Poye's other women combined could not compare to Sumayu.
Although Sumayu was satisfied with the love, Xue Poye also experienced another layer of the essence of love between a man and a woman.
…
…
The emperor's wedding brought joy to the whole country, and the celebration lasted for three days, and Kyoto was filled with joy. After all, after the emperor's wedding, and the founding of the mother-of-the-nation, the foundation of the empire will be stabilized, and the order of the empire will be further strengthened. What the people need is
A stable empire situation can keep all walks of life on track.
The wedding was held very grandly and with great momentum, but it was not extravagant. This was the little emperor's special instruction.
The war in the northwest cost a lot of money, and Yang Pass needed to be renovated, and there was a lot of money in various places, so everything was kept simple. That's why the officials and the people of Chu were full of expectations for their new emperor. Who could
Everyone hopes that there will be a wise master on the dragon throne of the empire. The current emperor seems to have this potential.
Less than ten days after the emperor's wedding, Lord Xue of Chu State also held a wedding and married two brides, naturally the green lady and Sumayu. Xue Poye was very satisfied.
All the officials came to congratulate him, and the little emperor not only gave him a large number of gifts, but also came to congratulate him personally.
This kind of kindness is extremely rare, but everyone knows the relationship between the little emperor and Xue Poye, and they can only feel envious.
The Beihu delegation is about to arrive in Beijing in the near future, and the officials of Honglu Temple are fully prepared to welcome them. This reception work is easy to say and difficult to say. First, it wants to show the power of the Celestial Dynasty, but later it is not easy.
It is necessary to give the Beihu delegation a feeling of being at home.
But for Honglu Temple, these are certainly not problems.
Because it was mainly Xue Poye who facilitated this negotiation and exchange, the representative sent by the Chu State this time was naturally Xue Poye. However, Xue Poye really had no idea about such detailed negotiations involving all aspects.
How much interest and confidence, just in this name, what we really want to talk about is Shu Zheng, the deputy representative of the Chu State. In addition, the Chu State has also selected several eloquent officials to assist Xue Poye and
Shu is handling the negotiations.
…
Taihe Palace.
Nuo Da's palace looked very empty, and the fire in the stove was bright, but it didn't seem cold at all. The little emperor and Xue Poye's master and apprentice sat across from each other, looking very silent.
"Master, you... do you have any objections to your disciple?" The little emperor looked a little sad: "You and your disciple have been talking less and less recently."
Xue Poye sighed and looked at the little emperor in front of him. Apart from being more mature and restrained than before, the little emperor was still the same little stone. Even his eyes were as clear as before.
"Your Majesty, I am here today. In addition to the preparations for welcoming the Beihu delegation that I just informed you about, there is one more thing I want to tell you." Xue Poye pondered for a long time before saying slowly.
"Master, if you have anything to say, just say it." The little emperor stared at Xue Poye: "You called me Little Shitou, there is no one here now."
Xue Poye smiled slightly and finally asked: "Sheng... Xiao Shitou, you should know that Lady Green is from Qinglianzhao. Why didn't you object to me marrying her? You didn't even mention it.
"
The little emperor blinked and suddenly laughed: "Master, you and the Green Lady are deeply in love. I want to stop it. Can I stop it? You naturally have your reasons for doing this. I have been with you for so long, I know
Your ability...I also know that the master's ability to deal with women is also the best in the world, and your choice will never be wrong."
The little emperor's words actually made Xue Poye's heart warm.
The little emperor's naughty look has not changed.
"Little Shitou, master, let me tell you the truth, Qinglianzhao and I have some connections." Xue Poye said slowly, paying attention to the little emperor's expression.
The little emperor waved his hand and said: "Master, you don't need to tell me, I know all those things."
"You know?" Xue Poye said in surprise: "What do you know?"
"You are the helmsman of Qinglianzhao Hangzhou branch." The little emperor said with a smile: "I heard that I was forced to sit on the shelf, so I took that seat."
Xue Poye was surprised, frowned, and stared at the little emperor: "You know?"
The little emperor stood up, walked to Xue Poye, and said seriously: "Master, that's all over. Don't worry, this matter is one of the many pieces of information that Moi forced out of the elder brother. Now the elder brother has been
Mo Yi was executed secretly, so not many people know about this matter." He stretched out his hand, held Xue Poye's hand, and said softly: "Those people in Qinglianzhao, the master will find a way to place them, as long as they
Behave yourself and I won't embarrass them."
Xue Poye sighed and said, "Little Shitou, you are more capable than I thought."
The little emperor stared at Xue Poye and said: "Master, you have told me many stories, and you have also told many stories about your great achievements that shocked the master. So in your heart, do you think that your disciple is also one of those emperors who cannot tolerate others?
Will you not be able to accommodate the master?"
Xue Poye didn't expect the little emperor to be so straightforward. He was stunned for a moment. Before he could speak, he heard the little emperor say in an extremely firm tone: "Master, your blood is flowing in my disciple's body, and so is my life."
You saved me, so you don’t have to doubt Xiao Shitou’s feelings for you. I just want my master to protect me and help me govern the country for the rest of my life... As for those irrelevant things, they will not affect our relationship at all.
relationship, the little stone will always be the little stone that needs the care of the master."
Xiao Shitou's words were sincere and there was no trace of hypocrisy. Xue Poye held Xiao Shitou's hand and felt relieved.
"I know that the master is quite confused about the change of officials in the court, but the master understands that now we have to govern the country, and what we need is talents. We have to appoint talents. Only they can help us govern the country. These are what the master taught us at the beginning.
Mine." The little emperor said slowly: "Master, what do you think?"
Xue Poye touched his nose and said calmly: "I understand what you mean. It's just You Shaoqing...!"
"He is a villain!" the little emperor sneered: "But we have to use him. With him staying in the Ministry of Personnel, what kind of officials do we need, so that we can promote officials in the name of the Ministry of Personnel. Wait until there is no need.
When the time comes, he can go down.”
Xue Poye said happily: "Little Shitou, you have grown up and are a good emperor!"
The little emperor chuckled and said: "When you grow up, you can't live without the master. By the way, master, this time the Beihu delegation comes to Beijing, you must remember... Hehe, don't forget the fragrant leaves!"
Xue Poye laughed and said: "You brat, you just married a beautiful queen, and you still have other girls in mind?"
The little emperor smiled and said: "Master, you have married four people, and you are still raising the little fairy sister. You only have one disciple, so how can you do it?"
"Is this also a competition?" Xue Poye chuckled, but his expression quickly dimmed and he asked softly: "Did you send people to kill Xiao Shitou, Yang Yao, Xuanyang and the prince?
"
The little emperor immediately shook his head and said: "Master, you should know the death of the Queen Mother. It has something to do with me, but the death of other people was not my order. I also wonder why they died one after another... I have sent Mo
I went to check it out!"
Xue Poye saw that the little emperor's eyes were blank, and he was even more confused. In his opinion, the little emperor should have sent people to do this secretly, but since the little emperor denied it, could there be another reason for the death of those people?
After leaving the palace, Xue Poye felt relatively comfortable. The frank conversation with the little emperor at least allowed Xue Poye to understand some of the little emperor's thoughts.
Xue Poye could feel that the little emperor had no grudge against him, because the tone and state of mind when the little emperor spoke were not false at all.
Although he doesn't know what the future will bring, at least the relationship between the two is still very close now, and Xue Poye is also confident that he can handle his relationship with the little emperor well in the future.
As for what Lan Wuqing secretly said about retiring and delegating power, Xue Poye had never thought about it. After struggling until now, he would be willing to give some power to the little emperor, but retiring would be impossible.
His own prestige no longer qualified him to retire. Without the power to protect him, Xue Poye was worried that after he retired, his whole family would not be able to live a good life.
Xue Poye quickly took action on Qinglianzhao's treatment.
For such a group of people, they must be restrained, so Xue Poye thought about it a lot and thought that he still had many stores all over the country, so he discussed it with Madam Lu and decided that Qinglianzhao's people should be placed as much as possible.
In these shops, first of all, there is a job to survive, and secondly, they are placed in the open and under surveillance, so it is not easy for trouble to happen.
Of course, there are thousands of Qinglianzhao, and it is naturally impossible to install them all.
Backbones such as Qian Hong and Pan Silang were directly integrated into various industries of Xue's company, while some of the more important figures in Qinglianzhao, such as the leader of the rudder hall, were all assigned to work in Ziyanfang. As for the ordinary helpers
, there are two ways to go. The first way is to give them some money to live in their hometown. The money is enough for them to buy some land for farming or do some small business. If they are not willing to take the money to make a living on their own,
Xue Poye planned to open more branches and put them in them.
Of course, once you enter each store, you must be secretly monitored by the local government to prevent them from making a comeback.
The more dispersed these people are, the better, and they will all be transferred to new environments, just like when the brothers from Kyoto were transferred to Huizhou, and those from Huizhou were transferred to Yizhou for a general clean-up.
Lady Green also felt that this was the best way out for Qinglianzhao, and immediately went to Hangzhou to deal with these matters in person.dd
