Xiao Yuan is a bit of a bastard. She has no experience in human affairs, so she can't bear it.
So exhausted, she nestled in his arms and fell asleep again.
Fortunately, there is no political matter today.
It wasn't until noon that she woke up quietly and stretched out her little hand to rub her eyes cutely.
"Are you awake?" Xiao Yuan sat beside the bed, stroking her hair with a smile.
"Brother Wang, what time is it?"
"It seems like it's almost noon."
"Ah?" She opened her small mouth and hurriedly wanted to get up, but as soon as she moved, there was a burst of pain underneath her body, which made her moan in pain.
Xiao Yuan quickly supported her.
"It's all your fault for treating me like that..." Lu Yunyan's face turned red again, feeling very aggrieved.
"Uh, this, haha." Xiao Yuan laughed dryly.
She blushed, "Turn your back and don't peek!"
"What? How can I not be allowed to see my wife?" Xiao Yuan was unhappy.
"Oh, you're not allowed to peek!"
Although they were already married, how could Lu Yunyan not be shy? He stretched out his hand and pushed Xiao Yuan hard. The latter had no choice but to get up and sit in front of the round table and pour himself a cup of tea.
She then began to fumble under the quilt to get dressed, and at the same time she revealed a pair of big eyes, staring at Xiao Yuan nervously as she moved.
After she was dressed, it was still a little inconvenient to get up. After a brief arrangement, Xiao Yuan took her hand and sat down next to him, and said, "Are you hungry? I've asked Fengqing to prepare lunch."
"Oh..." Lu Yunyan responded softly.
At this time, a charming voice came from outside the palace: "Your Majesty, His Highness the King of Qin."
Since the two of them were in the house, Fengqing didn't dare to enter at will.
After getting the signal, he walked in with a basin, towel and other toiletries. After putting them aside, he couldn't help but look at King Xuan secretly.
Lu Yunyan lowered her head in shame. Of course her personal maid knew everything, and she was too embarrassed to look at Fengqing. However, when the latter was about to leave, she turned red and said: "Well, Fengqing, help me." Get some hot water."
"Yes." Feng Qing bowed and bowed.
After a while, in another room, the wooden tub for bathing was filled with hot water and sprinkled with flower petals. Fengqing also came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the hot water is ready."
"Yes." Lu Yunyan responded softly. After Fengqing left, he also looked at Xiao Yuan and said worriedly: "Brother Wang, you are not allowed to follow."
"..." Xiao Yuan was speechless for a while.
By the time she finished taking a shower, changed her clothes, and arranged herself in front of the dressing table, the dishes were already on the table.
"Women are really troublesome." Xiao Yuan couldn't help but muttered.
Lu Yunyan didn't say anything and silently picked up some dishes for him.
As the saying goes, women should look good to please themselves. In front of the man she loves, she is no longer the cold queen.
Seeing her dress and classical hair accessories, so touching, Xiao Yuan was naturally happy.
After the two of them had lunch, the palace maid came in to finish cleaning up, and Xiao Yuan also accompanied her to the study.
Xuanguo's court meeting was not held every day. It discussed major dynasties and minor dynasties. However, a king still had to review his daily memorials.
There were already some piles on the desk, Xiao Yuan opened them casually, read a few memorials, and said, "I'll do it."
"Okay." Lu Yunyan nodded, her whole heart belonged to him, and said, "Just a test."
"It seems that we have a good understanding of each other." Xiao Yuan agreed deeply. After sitting down, he directly picked up the brush and dipped it in ink, and began to review.
Every time he completed the instructions for a memorial, he would hand it over to Lu Yunyan, who would stamp it with the seal of King Xuan.
The couple got busy in the study.
Although the political affairs of the Xuan Kingdom are somewhat different from those of the Qin Kingdom, they remain unchanged. For the king, regardless of politics, economy, military, or people's livelihood, they should be promoted in the direction of the country's benefit. Based on this, Xiao Yuan dealt with Get up, still no problem.
In the memorial, there are statements from the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government, as well as government affairs reports from local county governors.
But after approving, Xiao Yuan also frowned, because in several memorials in succession, some high-ranking officials were interceding for Li Yanbi, the Minister of Water Transport.
During this period, Xuanguo was not only engaged in water conservancy projects, but also insisted on purging officials and investigating corruption.
Seeing Xiao Yuan's confusion, Lu Yunyan explained from the side: "Brother Wang doesn't know something. Li Yanbi is in charge of water transportation in many counties, and all waterway freight must pass through his hands, including official salt."
"Wang Mei means that the evidence of his corruption and fraud has been conclusive? Otherwise, why would anyone plead for mercy?" Xiao Yuandao.
Lu Yunyan nodded: "Yes, after verification, Li Yanbi deducted wages from the canal workers, causing many people to sue the government, but..."
Speaking of this, she said with a little worry: "This person is a member of the noble family and a disciple of the imperial censor. He has a wide network of connections. If he is not handled well, he will be affected by the whole body."
"Now, there are so many ministers pleading for mercy. My original intention is to let it go first."
After hearing what she said, Xiao Yuan shook his head slightly and said: "I don't think it's appropriate. If Li Yanbi has a big tree and is in an important position, he has to restrain his hands. Then there is no need for Wang Mei to investigate corrupt officials." Done."
"I understand this. What I mean is that special people and special things require special methods." Lu Yunyan said.
"Wang Mei means to kill him alone to minimize the problem?" Xiao Yuan heard the meaning of her words.
Lu Yunyan said: "Li Yanbi is not the most important. The key point is water transportation. Why some senior officials begged for mercy is because they are worried about involving themselves. So if they continue to pursue it, the situation may get out of control, just like the Liangzhou case. Brother Wang feels that, Did Liu Changqing do the right thing?"
"Perhaps he did the right thing and eliminated all corrupt officials, implicating thousands of people. But the key question is whether this right or wrong has seriously affected the entire Liangdi, causing the political, economic and people's livelihood of Liangdi to decline to a low level. Horrifying level.”
Xiao Yuan understood what she meant, and he muttered for a moment: "After all, it was the intercession of a group of ministers that made Sister Wang soften her heart."
Lu Yunyan was silent for a moment.
"The kindness of a woman!" Xiao Yuan glared at her, and then began to write, sternly refuting some of the memorials pleading for mercy, and in the above table of the imperial censor, he emphasized the instructions, quoted from the classics, and said that the embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by Anthill gave him a severe scolding.
After he finished doing this, he looked at Lu Yunyan and said coldly: "Seal!"
"Oh..." Lu Yunyan puffed up her mouth and listened to him.
This time's instructions and some refutational memorials will be sent back to the official office.
And in the instructions of the memorials, although there is the seal of King Xuan, the handwriting is no longer the graceful one of the past, but the slightly scrawled handwriting of King Qin himself.
