When Liu Mingzhi saw the empress's look of understanding, he opened the brass lock with a smile, pushed the door open and walked into the study.
"Wanyuan, do you understand?"
The queen closed the door smoothly, looked at her husband who was already walking towards the desk, frowned slightly, raised her lotus feet and followed him lightly.
“I understand somewhat, but not quite.
Young Master Liu sat on the chair, picked up the tea cup on the desk and looked at it, then looked up at the Queen and gestured to the stove next to her.
"To put it mildly, this tea is no longer drinkable. Go ahead and make two cups of tea."
"Hey, I'll go right now."
The Queen responded with a slight smile, immediately took the tea cup from Young Master Liu's hand, walked lightly to the side and stopped in front of the stove.
After briefly glancing at the porcelain jars containing tea on the low table in front of her, the Queen looked back at Young Master Liu and asked: "Husband, what kind of tea do you want to drink?
Longjing? Biluochun? Jinshan clouds? still……"
Hearing the Queen's inquiry, Young Master Liu leaned forward, picked up a piece of rice paper, spread it in front of him, and asked without raising his head: "Wanyuan, would you like to see if there are any clouds and mist in the Jinshan Mountain?"
The Queen nodded slightly, picked up the exquisite porcelain jar with the Jinshan Yunwu label, and gently took off the lid.
Seeing the full jar of tea leaves in the tea jar, the Queen raised her brows slightly, looked at Young Master Liu with a smile and said: "Husband, there is still a full jar of Jinshan Yunwu!"
Young Master Liu, who was studying ink, heard the Queen's answer, and his face couldn't help but froze.
"Ah? Is there still a full can?
When my husband and I were making tea the day before yesterday, I remembered that the Jinshan Yunwu tea in the tea can seemed to have bottomed out. "
The Queen looked at Young Master Liu's stunned expression and gestured with the tea can in her hand.
"If you don't believe it, see for yourself?
I think it was when Sister Ying'er came to clean the study, she saw that the tea leaves in the tea can had bottomed out, so she refilled it for you. "
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and nodded: "That should be it. Come on, since there is Jinshan Cloud and Mist, I would like you to soak in a pot of Jinshan Cloud and Mist."
"Yeah, yeah, let me start making tea."
The Queen lifted the tea on the stove and began to make the tea very skillfully.
Soon.
The queen gently picked up the tray with tea, walked silently to Young Master Liu and stopped, leaning Liu's waist to place the tray on the desk.
"Husband, the tea is ready."
The empress reminded Young Master Liu with a smile on her face, picked up the teapot and poured two cups of fragrant tea.
In an instant, water mist filled the space between the couple and the fragrance of tea overflowed.
"Now, go on."
Young Master Liu smelled the strong aroma of tea, immediately put down the ink stick in his hand, and took the teacup handed by the Queen with a smile.
The Queen lifted her skirt, picked up her teacup, and sat down on the chair opposite Young Master Liu with grace and charm.
Liu Mingzhi held the teacup and gently brought it to his nose. He squinted his eyes and took a deep sniff of the rich tea aroma, and his face gradually became calm.
"Ah! To put it bluntly, husband, I haven't had tea brewed by you for a long time.
My husband vaguely remembers that the last time you politely asked me to make tea for my husband in person was probably more than a month ago.
Just over a month, to my husband, it seemed like a world away.
Hahaha, it feels like a world away. "
Listening to Young Master Liu's emotional tone, the Queen gently moved the tea lid in her hand, raised her eyes and glanced at Young Master Liu, and snorted with a look of resentment in her Qiu Shui eyes.
"Humph, is this a weird old lady?
Who told you to wait several days before going to my mother's room?
If you had gone to my mother's room to sit for a while when you had nothing to do, wouldn't you have already drank the tea I made for you personally?
If you don't get there yourself, who can you blame? "
Sensing the empress' eyes full of resentment, Young Master Liu crouched his brows and laughed bitterly.
"Hehehe, oh, that's so polite, you can't blame me for this, right?
There are so many of you sisters, and each one of you is a good wife for my husband.
The palms and backs of these hands are full of flesh. As a husband, I have to let you sisters get wet with rain and dew, right?
Besides, a husband is a human being, not a donkey, and there are only so many days in a month. You sisters, you have to let me, my husband, rest for a few days, right? "
As soon as Mr. Liu finished speaking, he smiled bitterly and took a sip of tea.
The Queen looked at Young Master Liu's reaction and rolled her eyes arrogantly.
"That's your own fault. If you can't do it yourself, who can blame you?
Anyway, I’ll just tell you, if you go to my place every day, I’ll make you tea every day. "
After hearing the Queen's words, Mr. Liu spit out a sip of tea.
"Pfft...cough cough cough..."
Young Master Liu coughed repeatedly, his eyes twitching as he looked up at the Queen.
"Ahem, cough, cough, go to your place every day? Will I still be alive, young master?
For my husband, I have practiced the Yin and Yang Harmony and the Great Compassion Fu, as well as the Yiqi Sutra, two supreme classics that can nourish yin and nourish yang, but it is not a sure thing.
Just by politely talking about your excessive demands, let alone going every day, even if you go once every three days, my body can't bear it. "
The Queen curled her lips with a coquettish look in her eyes, took a small sip of the tea in the cup with her mouth slightly open, looked at Young Master Liu with a disdainful expression and said with a smile: "Huh, you are so heartless, you just want to break the law. That’s because you can’t do it yourself.”
Listening to the Queen's disdainful tone, Young Master Liu's face turned awkward, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching.
"Hey, hey, what you said is too much to put it bluntly.
A scholar can be killed but not humiliated. You should know whether I can do it as a husband. "
The Queen smiled, gently put down the tea cup in her hand, curled her hair with her fingers coquettishly, and sat sideways in Young Master Liu's arms.
Immediately, the Queen played with Young Master Liu's cheek and said delicately: "Oh? Since you are so courageous, then you go there every day?"
When Young Master Liu heard this, his expression froze suddenly, and he held the tea in his mouth with trembling arms.
With the tea in his throat, Young Master Liu looked helplessly at the beauty nestling in his arms.
"Then... then you should continue to insult your husband.
As long as you politely say that you are happy in your heart, you can insult your husband however you want, and I will accept it all. "
The Queen listened to Young Master Liu's humming words, and immediately pinched the soft flesh of Young Master Liu's waist with her silver teeth.
"De Xing, can't you be tough with Wan Yan?"
Young Master Liu and the Queen looked into each other's charming eyes and shook their heads hurriedly.
"I don't dare, I can't be tough."
When the Queen saw Young Master Liu's reaction, she was immediately laughed out of anger.
“Pfft, you!
Virtue, whether you like it or not. "
Hearing the Queen's angry words, Young Master Liu touched the tip of his nose with his fingers and quickly changed the topic.
"To put it mildly, let's continue discussing the topic we just discussed.
Regarding these romantic matters, we will talk about it later, and we will talk about it later. "
The Queen's beautiful hands gently pressed the armrests of the chair and she just stood up. She turned her beautiful eyes slightly, then raised her slender legs again and sat astride Young Master Liu's lap.
After she sat down, she reached around Liu's waist to pick up her teacup, and glanced up at Young Master Liu.
"Say it, Wanyan is listening!"
Young Master Liu nodded and took a sip of tea, leaning on the chair silently, savoring the aftertaste of the tea with a relaxed expression.
When the fragrant tea enters your mouth, the fragrance lingers on your lips and teeth.
"To put it mildly, regarding the Second Route of the Western Expedition, didn't you just say that you seem to understand it, but you don't seem to understand it quite yet?"
The Queen gently fiddled with the fragrant tea in her hand and looked at Young Master Liu with a slight smile and nodded.
"Yes, indeed.
To be honest, I seem to have guessed the purpose of your move.
However, I am still a little undecided.
Therefore, it is better for you to tell the situation in person. "
Liu Mingzhi drank all the tea in the cup and put the cup back on the desk.
He silently chewed the tea leaves between his lips and teeth, and naturally wrapped his arms around the Queen's soft and boneless willow waist.
"To put it bluntly, if Fei Xiong really can't develop the kind of fire dragon car that I want for my husband.
So...then..."
The Queen frowned: "Then what will happen?
Young Master Liu looked at the Queen's frown, and the fierce look in his eyes flashed away.
"Then, Duan Dingbang is about to start a big war in the far west.
Even if we can't create a prosperous world.
At the very least, we must first create a two-hundred-year peace for our descendants.
The beatings made those foreign barbarians tremble with fear, and the beatings made them tremble every time they mentioned the Great Dragon Heavenly Dynasty within two hundred years.
They will not dare to offend my dragon's territory easily within two hundred years.
What happens next is beyond my control as a husband.
Everything depends on our children, whether we live up to our expectations or not.
As the saying goes, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings.
As a husband, this is the only thing I can do for my children in this life. "
The Queen looked at Young Master Liu with a somewhat complicated expression. She opened her lips slightly and let out a long breath: "You are heartless, is this the worst plan?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the queen's complicated expression, turned to look out the window, looked deep in silence for a long time, and nodded gently.
"To put it bluntly, you are right. This is the worst plan I have made for my husband."
The Queen bit her delicate red lips lightly with her teeth, and fell silent with a dazed look on her face.
After a long time.
The Queen gently twisted her waist, frowned and looked up at Young Master Liu and asked: "But...but...
In this case, what about the reputation of using weapons in large numbers?
In the end, doesn’t it still fall on you, your husband? "
Young Master Liu raised his hand to play with the Queen's pearl earrings and shook his head with a half-smile.
"That's not necessarily the case."
"You have no conscience, how can this be inevitable?
Without the order of you, the king of a country, how could Duan Dingbang, the boy, dare to use weapons without authorization in the territories of the countries in the far west? "
Liu Mingzhi gently squeezed the Queen's pearl earlobes and raised a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
"As long as you plan well, it doesn't matter."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Liu Mingzhi gently patted the Queen's buttocks, and gestured to the tea cup on the desk with his lips raised.
The queen turned her head and looked at the teacup on the side, then directly put the tea in her hand into Young Master Liu's hand.
"Drink Wanyan first. I'll get up later and refill the tea together."
Young Master Liu looked at the tea cup in his hand and nodded happily.
"Okay, okay, then I won't be polite as your husband."
Liu Mingzhi took a sip of tea and leaned on the chair with a comfortable expression.
"To put it mildly, you were once the king of a country in the past.
There is a saying that should be familiar to you. "
The Queen looked slightly stunned and asked instinctively: "Oh? What is the common saying?"
"I will be outside, and I will not accept your order."
Hearing Young Master Liu's words, the Queen's pupils suddenly shrank, and her graceful body could not help but tremble slightly.
At this moment, she finally understood the idea of Young Master Liu's whereabouts.
"I will be outside, and I will not accept your order."
"I will be outside, and I will not accept your order."
The Queen murmured softly and repeated this saying twice, then gently leaned on Young Master Liu's shoulder.
"In other words, this kid Dingbang will be responsible for the bad reputation of using weapons?"
Liu Mingzhi sighed softly after swallowing the tea in his mouth.
"My husband doesn't want to bear this bad name, and uncle Zhang Kuang, uncle Nangong Ye, uncle, brother Hu Yan... they and others can't bear it either.
As a result, Duan Dingbang is the only one who will bear the burden. "
As soon as Liu Mingzhi finished speaking, he turned to look out the window and gently slapped the queen's buttocks a few times.
The Queen immediately straightened up her waist and left Young Master Liu's arms.
Liu Mingzhi stood up directly, holding the tea cup in his hand and slowly walked to the window sill and stopped.
The queen casually tugged at the hem of her skirt and walked to Young Master Liu's side with gentle steps.
Liu Mingzhi glanced sideways at the Queen and looked at the scenery outside the window again.
"Spring returns to the earth, and flowers bloom and fall for a year."
The Queen's eyes also fell on the courtyard, on the green flowers and plants in the flower beds.
"Yes, spring has returned to the earth, and flowers are blooming and falling for another year."
"Euphemistically."
"Hey, tell me."
"To put it mildly, don't talk about the matter of making a marquis. One general's achievements will cause thousands of bones to wither.
Since Duan Dingbang has assumed the position of Generalissimo of the Second Army, he will naturally bear certain responsibilities.
If you want to be granted a title, how can your palms not be stained with blood?
Once you take this path, there is no turning back. "
The Queen raised her arms to rest on the window sill and nodded gently.
"You have no conscience, I understand politely."
"Euphemistically."
"Um?"
Liu Mingzhi took a sip of tea and turned the teacup in his hand blankly.
"Don't you think that my husband is too cruel?"
"Won't."
The Queen answered directly without thinking.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true."
