But this kind of being together is different from getting married and having children. She has never thought about it on this level.
She didn't think that Brother Mu loved her very much. Maybe he just had the same thoughts as her.
As for Brother Mu's gaffe at the dinner table, in Xin'er's eyes, maybe it was just that Brother Mu was temporarily forced by Princess Gaoyang and became confused.
She is still a child, how could Brother Mu have feelings for her?
Xin'er was in disbelief.
"Okay, I understand, then I'll talk to Muchuan."
Fang Cheng saw her looking like she didn't understand anything and sighed.
It's also his fault that he protects his sister so well that he is almost a hairpin girl and still doesn't know how to decide his own life-long affairs.
It's good that he, the elder brother, should pay more attention to her.
"What do you want to tell Brother Mu?"
Xin'er asked Fang Cheng anxiously. She was afraid that Fang Cheng would ask something and Muchuan would say something that would make her unable to sleep.
"Don't say anything, just talk about Gao Yang."
Fang Cheng looked at Xin'er with a smile, showing his white teeth, as if Xin'er's matter was not something he could take seriously.
Xin'er nodded and forced a smile at Fang Cheng.
Also, why does she always worry about such a small thing?
You should be more bearish like your brother.
Fang Cheng knew that his sister had successfully fallen into his trap, so he raised his voice and called the maid outside.
"Help your girl freshen up and put her to bed early."
The maid came in, agreed to Fang Cheng respectfully, and then went out to prepare.
Fang Cheng turned back to look at Xin'er:
"Go to bed early, it's all trivial."
After Fang Cheng finished speaking, he smiled at Xin'er and left Xin'er's yard.
When Fang Cheng went to find Muchuan, Muchuan was handling official business in the study.
Fang Cheng was amazed when he saw this. He envied people like this. They didn't panic even when dealing with big things, and just dealt with the tasks at hand first.
"Master Mu has such a big heart!"
As soon as Fang Cheng entered, he sat in a chair nearby, picked up a fan and played with it on the table.
Muchuan raised his head and glanced at him. This dandy look really gave him the illusion that he was seeing the prince.
It seems that all the dandies in the world are alike, at least in words and deeds.
"My heart is bigger than my uncle!"
Muchuan raised his eyelids and said to Fang Cheng. The last three "uncle brothers" spoke with gritted teeth.
When Fang Cheng heard this, he immediately jumped up from his chair, as if he was burned by these three words.
"I have no intention of marrying Xin'er to you!"
Fang Cheng said angrily, and his fan hit the table louder.
"However, it seems that someone was rejected by my sister just now. It's different for me. My sister at least still sees me."
Fang Cheng said proudly, and even smiled brightly in front of Muchuan.
Muchuan's writing hand paused, these words really touched his heart.
"And you are not clean now. If you are attracted by Gao Yang, my sister will be even more dissatisfied."
Fang Cheng expressed the essence of watching a play vividly and was not worried at all about irritating Muchuan.
Muchuan raised his head and stared at Fang Cheng. Fang Chengcai didn't care about Muchuan's knife-like eyes. As long as it wasn't a real knife, he didn't care.
"The most important thing is that my sister is still very young. I can't marry her to you now."
Fang Cheng said, his teeth were white, and he smiled so hard that Muchuan looked so dazzled that he really wanted to knock off those two rows of teeth with a hammer.
"Isn't my play good to watch?"
Muchuan straightened up, picked up a small toy on the table, lay down on the back of the chair, and looked at Fang Cheng with a half-smile.
“Good looking!”
Fang Cheng deliberately nodded desperately, fully agreeing with what Muchuan said.
Muchuan glanced at Fang Cheng, then at the unsightly invitation on the table, and let out a long breath.
"Xin'er, I didn't tell you just now, does she like me?"
Muchuan put down his posture and asked Fang Cheng sincerely.
Fang Cheng scratched his head. Once Muchuan got serious, he couldn't continue talking nonsense like this.
But what did he say?
Thinking about his sister's appearance, he really didn't know how to tell Muchuan whether he liked her or not.
"You'd better ask her yourself. As an elder brother, I can't be her master and pass on her words."
Fang Cheng sighed. It wasn't that he didn't want to help Muchuan, he was really afraid of saying the wrong thing and making his sister angry.
"That's right, how could she tell you the truth?"
Muchuan glanced at Fang Cheng mockingly, and the anger that had just been aroused by Fang Cheng finally calmed down a little.
Fang Cheng was suddenly robbed and was stunned for a long time without reacting.
After working on it for a long time, he was just deceived by Muchuan!
Whatever sincerity, whatever seriousness, it was all intentional by Muchuan!
"You deserve to be entangled by Gao Yang!"
Fang Cheng opened the fan angrily, and the fan shook loudly.
Muchuan looked at the gilded invitation again. Hey, although it was fun to tease Fang Cheng, he had no interest in facing Gao Yang the day after tomorrow.
The most important thing is that Xin'er didn't respond to him at all. Muchuan looked calm on the outside, but in his heart he was actually agitated and extremely nervous.
Fang Cheng can't find any information here. Tomorrow, he must ask Xiner clearly.
When he went to court the next day, Li Shimin asked someone to report on the potato and cotton planting situation.
As Muchuan expected, potatoes and cotton grew very well, and the germination rate was also high.
"Yes, reward! Mu Aiqing, can the caravan you mentioned be established in advance?"
Li Shimin first rewarded the person who reported the report, and then turned to ask Muchuan who was standing below.
Yesterday Muchuan mentioned the caravan. Li Shimin wanted to do whatever he wanted, but he couldn't bear it until half a year or a year later.
Knowing that he could buy these things and feed and clothe the people of the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible, why should he wait any longer?
Isn’t it just to wait for the translation?
Can't we just buy a few at a high price in Chang'an City first?
Just focus on potatoes and cotton. Plant them as soon as you buy them. You can see the results this winter.
If the results are good, maybe we can try it on Korea this year.
It has to be said that Li Shimin became obsessed with attacking Goryeo.
"That's fine, but Your Majesty will allow Wei Chen a few days to find a suitable translator and then organize the caravan."
Translators are easy to find, but caravans are difficult to organize. Cotton seeds are easy to find, but potato transportation is more troublesome and requires a large number of fleets. This requires recruiting powerful caravans in Chang'an City.
"Okay, Master Mu, go and get busy. If you have any problems, just come to me and I will solve it for you!"
Li Shimin was very happy. He trusted Muchuan. Once Muchuan took action, he would definitely do a great job.
As for what he said "come to him if you have any problems", it was just to tell Muchuan that you don't have to worry about money, he has his support in everything.
Muchuan naturally bowed to Li Shimin to thank him and lamented the emperor's great kindness. After all, Li Shimin had never said to any minister, "If you have any questions, just come to him." For Muchuan, this was indeed an honor.
