The beauty is as beautiful as jade, with needles and threads threaded on the silk and satin, and Zhuang Xun is reciting a policy book next to her, creating a harmonious scene of men farming and women weaving.
The plain silk and satin, the exquisite patterns are born in his hands, and the beautiful cloud patterns are like a pair of skillful hands picking off the cirrus clouds in the sky.
"Be loyal to your ministers, be appreciated by the king, be supported by the people..." Considering that Zhuang Xun didn't have much ink in his stomach, Si Qinmi didn't use any uncommon words, and his writing was easy to understand.
"Madam, you said that if we rebelled against the Yu State in this way, would it make us look like wolves? If I was promoted by the emperor." Zhuang Xun said after reading this, he was a little embarrassed to say it.
"Why did Mr. Lang say this?" Si Qinmi put down the silk cloth in his hand.
Zhuang Xun did not allow her to work, but she said that she really had nothing to do and could only make her own clothes without touching the water, so Zhuang Xun agreed.
"You think if you pass the emperor's assessment this time, being awarded an official means being appreciated by the emperor. However, we just want to take advantage of the chaos. Isn't this not good? If we buy an official, we won't have this burden." Zhuang Xun He said with a troubled face.
Smoothing out the manuscript so that the words on it do not match his words and deeds will make Zhuang Xun feel like he is lying or too thin-skinned.
Si Qin Mi smiled with beautiful eyes. What this somewhat naive man said really made people smile, but he didn't hate it. It was this innocence that he fell in love with.
"That's true, but looking at the specific situation, this government is unjust. Our purpose from the beginning was to save the people of Li from the fire. Since there is no loyalty, there is no betrayal.
Moreover, what we have done has not betrayed the emperor's trust. We have fulfilled our duties and protected the people without slacking off. It's just that the current situation has developed. The Tang family has lost its country due to unethical principles. It is irreparable. Lang Jun has a destiny and he deserves it.
The real betrayal is that of Siqin Shengjing. The monarch entrusted the life and death of the country, but betrayed his duties. He felt that the Tang family was unjust. He could not accept the appointment, or directly use the army to overthrow the rule of the Tang family, but he Choosing to defect in the face of battle, without using a single arrow, he made the world laugh.
Furthermore, if you feel grateful for the emperor's promotion and your husband succeeds in success in the future, and you feel you have been deceived and owed, you can keep an heir of the Tang family to make up for it. "
Si Qinmi persuaded Zhuang Xun and found a reason that was more in line with the current values.
"It's not that holy mother's heart. You are right. I never thought about loyalty from the beginning. Where did the betrayal come from? I did accept the emperor's favor of appreciation and promotion. I can just repay it to his heirs in the future. There is no such thing as seizing the country. Justice or not." Zhuang Xun was quite open-minded. After all, there were a few righteous people in the changing dynasties. He really thought too much and said such things impulsively.
"What needs to be said must be said. After all, a man's personal ethics can be compromised, but a great man cannot give in to others. He must not behave like Siqin Shengjing. That kind of behavior can really ruin his reputation."
Si Qin Mi could see clearly that the country's immorality was not the reason for you to lead your troops to surrender to the enemy. Even if all the sects of the Nine Provinces came from the same origin, you should have run away secretly by yourself. How could you surrender with a large army in exchange for your own glory and wealth? The king’s trust.
"Stop thinking about these things. I don't even know if I can get an official position now. I don't think about these things. It's not just empty talk about ambitions." I think too much now. I want to eat meat before I even eat porridge. The discussion is unrealistic. , the feeling he suddenly had just after reading the article has now dissipated.
"Last time I came to congratulate Xiucai, do you think he was loyal to that prince?" Zhuang Xun changed the topic, rubbed his temples, and was tired of memorizing the book.
"I can't tell, but to say that he is sincerely loyal to you, Mr. Lang, I don't think so. Mr. Lang, are you tired? Come here and take a rest." He put the silk and satin aside and waved to Zhuang Xun.
"Of course you can tell, I'm not a dragon... When others see him, they bow to him, saying that they are attached temporarily for the sake of profit." Zhuang Xun sat next to Siqin Mi, his words unclear, thinking about what to say about Long Aotian, Si Qinmi didn't understand either, so he just kept silent.
"Don't belittle yourself. Your husband is kind and has a benevolent attitude. Many people like him better, and I also like him better. Lie down and I will rub you." I didn't understand what Zhuang Xun didn't say, so I followed what Zhuang Xun said. She comforted him, saying that her husband was naturally pleased with her. She grabbed Zhuang Xun's shoulders and put him down on her plump thighs.
"Who is the most powerful among these princes?" Zhuang Xun changed the question and fell into Siqin Mi's arms, enjoying the soft embrace, the full thighs on the knee pillow, and her jade fingers massaging the acupuncture points on the top of his head. Zhuang Xun felt The bloating feeling of endorsement is much better.
"They are all pretty average. Some of them have quite good reputations, but they don't have any actual abilities. It's hard to say. It's hard to say. There are quite a few idiots who know about it." Si Qinmi didn't comment on Zhuang Xun about the others. So gentle.
"A typical King of Xihe. His spiritual barrier was broken. He gave up his wife and went straight to Yindu for refuge. He also held the position of the governor of Xihe County. As soon as he ran away, Xihe County was leaderless and no decent resistance was organized. Xihe County has fallen, and he seems to have no chance of becoming emperor." Si Qinmi said with a chuckle.
"I don't want my wife and children, but he is a human being?" Zhuang Xun couldn't help but said, holding Siqin Mi's left hand and looking at it carefully.
The wound has become scabbed with blood after a day, and there are two red spots like holes on the white and tender green onion finger.
"If you lose your wife, you can remarry. Anyway, to these people, their wives are not as important as themselves. After all, Yu will not fall. He is still the king. There are many women, and children are not born casually." Zhuang Xun said about his wife several times, Si Qin Mi also understood what his wife meant.
"Not everyone is as kind and righteous as you, Lang Jun. I have helped so many people in the past, but only Lang Jun remembers me." Si Qinmi praised Zhuang Xun again, and her husband naturally wanted to praise him more to make him more confident. .
"Stop talking. Besides, I'm ashamed. This is really not a big deal. The soldiers who defended their homeland and defended their country without fear of death deserve much more praise than me." He felt that everyone was bragging about a small matter. It was really He was so used to it, he felt quite awkward.
"Okay, let's stop talking about it. Are you feeling better?" Si Qinmi smiled even more when he saw Zhuang Xun's embarrassed look.
"Much better, but let me rest for a while, my wife's arms are so comfortable." Zhuang Xun said obediently, cupping Siqinmi's belly. She has a delicate and plump body.
"You are really starting to enjoy the gentle land before you have achieved success." Si Qinmi is not a strict wife, and she does not hate Zhuang Xun's greedy behavior. Rather, she is quite happy that her embrace has attracted him. She A smile spread across her lips.
"If my wife is not gentle, why would anyone else come to enjoy the gentle land for me?" Zhuang Xuntian said shamelessly.
"Okay, don't be poor. You were smart last time. He Xiucai asked you who you favored. You avoided the question. You can't make random comments on the issue of inheriting the heir." Si Qinmi praised Zhuang Xun.
"Of course I know this. What I want to discuss with you, madam, is what should I do if others ask me this question." Zhuang Xun is not an idiot. When the question of seizing the heir is asked, he reacts instantly. Isn't this something that can be done? It’s a casual question, and a bad answer can lead to big trouble.
"Don't support any princes. They are either mediocre or idiots with bad intentions. They can't bring you any benefits. All princes are excellent." Si Qinmi said directly, criticizing these princes as worthless.
"Yes." Zhuang Xun touched Si Qinmi's hand, a smooth and thin hand that never gets tired of playing with it.
It’s great to have a knee pillow and be able to touch your hands.
"These princes want to win over you because they want to see what Mr. Xiao, the Minister of Civil Affairs, wants." Siqin Mi taught Zhuang Xunying to say.
"Isn't it not good to be related to Xiao Shaowen in this way?" Xiao Shaowen, the Minister of Civil Affairs, is a corrupt official. His reputation is so bad that even the neighboring country knows it. Isn't it a scolding for standing next to him?
"It's better to expose yourself early. It's better to expose yourself than others. The top priority is to find a place where you can stand and pull up a shield. With the help of Mr. Xiao, you can gain a foothold. As long as you get to the government office, Lang Jun can cultivate good governance." , things like reputation will come back." Si Qin Mi played a little game of rubbing with Zhuang Xun's hands, trying to persuade him to act in a hurry.
"You're right." Zhuang Xun thought about it. Now he has an empty name and nothing, and he still wants to pretend to be aloof. If he just wants a name, it's fine, but he has to fight for the dragon. , with such noble thoughts, it is really a serious illness.
"But what should I do if Xiao Shaowen wants me to commit adultery?" Zhuang Xun thought of something else to say.
"The purpose of committing an offense is nothing more than to ask for money. After the longevity banquet is over, we take the property that my mother left for my concubine. If he asks for money, just give it to him. It doesn't matter if he is a corrupt official. Once he is fed, he will not I'm causing trouble for you." Si Qinmi gave a solution.
"Suddenly I feel like I am not grateful for the emperor's promotion." Zhuang Xun nodded up and down and rubbed his face against Siqin Mi's legs. He could feel her plumpness through the coarse linen clothes.
"Why? Are you angry with corrupt officials?" Si Qin Mi said with a smile. Seeing Zhuang Xun's head shaking on his lap, his little hand intertwined with his own, his heart seemed to be filled with something, a little sweet.
"Well, how can I be promoted by him? I am just trying to gain merit for him in the underworld, and I have to spend money to go to work." Zhuang Xun said with a face full of complaints.
"It's great if you think so. To some extent, it's true." Si Qin Mi was amused by Zhuang Xun and held his hand tightly.
"According to what the emperor did, he probably had to be fried in oil when he went to the underworld. He was quite wise at first, punishing a group of high-ranking families, developing agriculture, and rectifying the government. However, when wheat was replaced by potatoes, the production reduction caused nationwide After a rebellion, the emperor lost his enterprising spirit and became fond of pleasure and collecting treasures and curios." Si Qinmi said sadly.
"Is that so? It stands to reason that these emperors should be very stubborn. After all, they are supreme. They feel that they are invincible and everything they say and do is the golden rule." Zhuang Xun thought of the iron emperors in history.
"The rebels' latest attack has reached outside Yindu City. Fortunately, the leader of the rebel army was killed, otherwise it is not certain whether this Yu would have survived for these twenty years." Siqin Mi was noncommittal.
"So you don't want to make progress?" Zhuang Xun also thought it was reasonable. After all, it took a long time to cause a big uprising, and it was normal for the emperor to be frightened.
"Because the emperor compromised with the wealthy family, the leader of the rebel army died under mysterious circumstances, and the two lieutenants were finally put to rest. The emperor had previously recruited a few poor families as top three, but after the uprising, he never hired them again," Si Qinmi disclosed. .
"After that, the emperor became more and more cruel, appointing sycophants like Zhang Guozhong, and he did not hesitate to kill people, but the entire family of the ministers was never implicated." Use facts to support the information just disclosed.
"It's hard to be a good emperor, but it's quite easy to be a bad emperor, and you can do whatever you want." Zhuang Xun complained, as long as a bad emperor can kill people.
"He is so cruel. I am not the best at it..." Zhuang Xun swallowed his saliva when talking about the emperor's cruel character.
"Don't worry. Although the emperor likes to kill people, he kills more high-ranking families. Although the top three are no longer poor families, he often shows mercy to low-income families." Si Qin Mi shook Zhuang Xun's hand and said.
"You still haven't solved the situation where he is dissatisfied and wants to kill people, but it is indeed like what you said. If you lose someone in front of a noble family, kill some people to vent your anger." Zhuang Xun couldn't laugh or cry. Now the Wanshou Banquet has entered the tiger's den. I can only pray that the tiger is not hungry.
"Also, the emperor does not kill sages. To be precise, he is a truly sage. You can point your finger at him and scold him, and he will only ask others to take out the sage. But if a sage is not virtuous, and is found to be a fake sage after investigation, then that's terrible You are going to be in bad luck, even beheading is considered a minor matter. Lang Jun, what you did was not fake, so there is no need to be afraid, maybe you can still be appreciated by the emperor."
Si Qinmi's comfort this time made Zhuang Xun feel much better. After all, he felt that his moral character was above average.
"Don't ask for appreciation, just don't make him angry. I'm not a wise man either. I hope you can see that I'm honest and let me get through it safely." Zhuang Xun prayed.
"Then escape from Yindu, like a dragon ascending to the sky or a fish entering the sea, no longer bound by these twists and turns."
Yin Du Zhuangxun became more and more frightened. As a small person before, he paid the protection fee and everything was fine.
Now, just being on the edge of officialdom is overwhelming.
"I know you are under a lot of pressure, Mr. Lang. It's all my fault that I told you about your imperial bloodline." Siqin Mi said, seeing Zhuang Xun repressed and blaming himself.
"Then how are you going to compensate me?" Zhuang Xun laughed out loud. He didn't want to pass on the pressure to his family. No matter how many difficulties he faced, there was nothing to be afraid of because he was guaranteed to die. It was just that he was really afraid of pain.
"I've already compensated you, what else do you want?" Si Qinmi said this very naturally and from the bottom of his heart. As he swore, you will never give up and are willing to follow you.
"When you are happy, it also makes me happy..." Zhuang Xun put the jade hand he was holding to his lips.
"It's so stressful. Can you let me hug you more? She smells so good. She really wants to sleep." Zhuang Xun joked to adjust the atmosphere. He didn't want to see Si Qin Mi feel guilty. Anyway, he felt that he had won. , I don’t want to get cheap but still behave well.
"I haven't put on makeup or powder. What's the fragrance? Go to sleep if you want. I'll sing a song for you..." Si Qinmi straightened Zhuang Xun's head so that he could lie down more comfortably.
"You haven't even finished memorizing the book, and sleeping like this is not good for your legs. Everything about you is mine, so you have to take good care of it." Zhuang Xun wanted to get up.
"No more memorizing, let's listen to my concubine singing."
Si Qinmi held him down, and the sound was like the sound of a luan, ethereal and distant.
"The spring breeze moves the heart of spring, and the eyes are drawn to the mountains and forests. The mountains and forests are full of wonders, and the sunbirds are making clear sounds."
"Green catkins lead to long roads, red peppers are heavy with purple stems. The flow blows out of the suburbs, and we enjoy the spring flowers together."
"At the beginning of the month, the light and beauty bloom, and the brocade flowers bloom in the new forest. Lovers play with the spring moon, dragging their graceful trains."
…
Fingers clasped together, beauty is in love.
