Han Yan smiled and said, "The eldest princess is the most lenient and kind-hearted."

Yiman smiled and said nothing. After a while, Han Yan spoke tentatively.

"Recently, many documents are being transferred to the hands of Lord Zhongshu. Does the eldest princess want to test Lord Zuo?"

Yi Man glanced at it and said, "Zhongshu Province has a special position and must be fought for."

"Yes, Wei Chen thinks that if the eldest princess wants to test Mr. Zuo, she can actually tell just by looking at Mr. Zuo's current behavior.

Mr. Zuo was born into a poor family, and he had previously planned and written the provisions of the New Deal reforms for His Majesty.Although he has always been His Majesty's confidant, he has his own way of doing things.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also studied Mr. Zuo before and believes that Mr. Zuo is fair in dealing with things and has his own principles. Even if His Majesty behaves inappropriately, he can still protect himself."

Looking at Yi Man's slightly thoughtful gaze, Han Yan gradually closed his mouth.

Yiman took a deep breath and said, "I understand, Lord Zuo is a pure minister, so Zhongshu doesn't have to fight for it at all. As long as it is beneficial to the people's livelihood of the court, Zhongshu will think about it, does the emperor mean this?"

The eldest princess was really getting more and more oppressed by the emperor. Han Yan wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly handed over his hand, "That's what the eldest princess said."

More than a month later, eight hundred miles of urgent military reports were sent to Beijing.The Shatuo Kingdom invaded the territory and fought with the Jin family army.

"Princess, the war has begun, why are you not in a hurry?"

In the study, Yiman slowly took a sip of tea and glanced at Jin Xiao.

"What's the use of being anxious? Commanding operations is not my specialty. No matter what monsters and monsters there are in the DPRK, I believe that the soldiers on the border are still loyal to the country. Besides, there are Jin Jiajun and Cheng Youping on the front line. They can fight and command. , naturally we have to wait for the results.”

Jin Xiao frowned slightly, "But if Tugui takes the opportunity to launch a surprise attack, the war on the northern frontline will break out."

Yiman shook his head slightly, "No, Shatuo can't win at all, so it's just Tugui's test. Maybe Tugui and Shatuo had a secret conspiracy and reached some agreement."

"Alas, but the eldest princess is right about one thing."

"what's up?"

Jin Xiao took out the folder from his sleeve and said, "Your Majesty really paid for the military pay."

As expected, Yi Man responded casually.

"I heard that Master Tong from Menxia Province often runs to the palace recently?"

Jin Xiao hesitated for a moment, "Wei Chen has been listening to the Ministry of Finance's request for money and has not paid much attention to the affairs in the palace. However, the minister has His Majesty's team in the palace, so it should be very normal to enter the palace. The eldest princess wants to intervene in the palace. Province?"

Yiman waved his hand, "You don't have to worry about the war. We have money. Let's go quickly."

"Yes, Wei Chen retire."

"Lu Bo."

"Princess."

"Has Tong Xiao from Menxia Province been going to the palace these days?"

Lu Bo cupped his hands and said, "The news from the palace is this. I heard that a pair of twins were sent to the palace to present to His Majesty."

Yiman sneered, "He is also known as a loyal and upright minister with Zuo Qinglu. Now that you are sending a beauty into the palace, are you not afraid of being blamed for causing trouble for the emperor?"

"Most of the ministers have no objections."

Hearing Zhou Yu's voice, Yiman raised the corner of his mouth and pulled him to his side.

"Have you given up?"

Zhou Yu nodded, and Lu Bo silently retreated.

Yiman asked doubtfully, "Aren't those veterans most taboo about some kind of enchantress harming the country? Do they have no objection to Tong Xiao sending a beauty away?"

Zhou Yu leaned on the desk and said, "His Majesty is becoming more and more fond of Xia Tuyi. There are already complaints in the palace, but it has not been spread yet. When Tong Xiao was sent to the palace, some people thought that they could divert His Majesty's attention and win over His Majesty's Sacred Heart. "

Yiman sneered, "Xia Youyi can't stay in the palace for just one or two days. The emperor has seen hundreds and thousands of people. If two beauties can make the emperor fall in love, Xia Youyi's life in the palace will be in vain for so many years." ”

Zhou Yu looked at Yiman with water in his eyes, but Yiman looked away due to his burning gaze, "They don't even show their faces anymore, don't look at me like this."

Zhou Yu chuckled lightly and touched Yiman's earlobe, "It doesn't matter. After Bai Yi threw them out last time, I went to the door in person and retaliated from house to house."

Yiman raised his eyebrows with a malicious smile in his eyes, "What did you do?"

"I also sent some people to your residence. If the back house is restless, they will have no time to care about other people's affairs."

Yiman smiled, and suddenly his eyes flashed, "You said Tong Xiao would give it away, can I give it away too?"

"Your Majesty will be on guard against the person you send." Yiman stared at Zhou Yu's face and traced the outline with his eyes, "As long as he is good-looking, I am not afraid that the emperor will not be tempted. You can help me look for him, but he must be willing to do so. .”

Zhou Yu sighed, "Are you only looking at the skin?"

Turning his eyes, he immediately hugged Zhou Yu, "No, you have to be well-read, have a mind like a monster, be extremely independent, and have high martial arts skills."

Zhou Yu smiled and shook his head slightly.

After the court came down, all the ministers walked together in twos and threes.

"Have you heard?"

"Your Majesty didn't go to court two days ago, how could you still know?"

"His Majesty is too fond of Xia Tongyi. I heard that he will be canonized."

"That's not all. I heard that Xia Youyi has caught wind and cold. Your Majesty is going to bring a living spring from outside the palace to warm the palace."

"Is this okay? The disaster has just been calmed down, and the border has not been settled yet. Where can I get the spare money to spend on the harem, and the queen will not give me advice?"

"Oh, Mr. Wang, you and I have been in power for many years, and you still don't know the Queen's temperament? It's better to ask the Queen to give advice than to ask the eldest princess -"

"Princess—"

Yiman walked past the minister with a smile, nodded, and walked towards the East Palace.

"Favoring Xia Tuyi is not good for Your Majesty's reputation. The outside world should also know that His Majesty favors the people sent by Lord Tong."

Lu Bo responded and quickly left the palace to make arrangements.

As soon as I saw the door of the East Palace, I saw a little bean hiding behind the door and peeking.

Yi Man walked towards the door with a smile, watching him being hugged by Grandma Zhong with his teeth and claws open.

"The princess is here, come in quickly, please come in quickly."

Bai Ningxiu lowered his head slightly and shyly pulled Yiman's wide sleeves, "Little aunt."

Yiman nodded with a smile, pulled his sleeves, and led Bai Ningxiu towards the palace.

"Did the book I gave you look good?"

Bai Ningxiu pouted and nodded.

Yiman looked back, and Bai Ningxiu immediately raised Yiman's sleeve to block himself.

The two of them walked to the main hall, feeling the empty and deserted feeling, and glanced at the small couch where the prince was reading the memorial.

"The princess is here?"

Yiman turned around and saw Yang Suxue walking over.

"Sister-in-law, has Bai Ningxiu read all the reading lists I gave you?"

Yang Suxue glanced at Bai Ningxiu who was hiding behind a pile of clothes, "I've all stared at him, and I've even taken him to the Chongwen Museum to ask questions."

Yiman nodded with a smile, "I wrote a few more books, all for his enlightenment. Sister-in-law, remember to find them for him and watch him read them."

"it is good."

Yang Suxue's eyes were calm and soft, "When will the eldest princess marry Mr. Zhou?"

Yiman cleared his throat and said, "It's not urgent yet."

Yang Suxue sighed, "It's okay, the eldest princess has the most ideas, so you can make your own decision."

"By the way, I copied a memorial and let Bai Ningxiu read it first."

With that said, Yiman took out a memorial from his sleeve.

Yang Suxue looked at Bai Ningxiu, who was not even taller than his legs. "He is not yet five years old. Is it too early to read the memorial? I have never read many of the book lists written by the eldest princess."

Yiman shook his head slightly, "This was just a matter of people's livelihood three years ago and will not involve the military and political affairs of North Korea and China. Even if he doesn't understand it now, he can just memorize the process. Sister-in-law, remember to let him memorize it."

Yang Suxue looked at Yiman's eyes suddenly turning red and nodded hurriedly, "Hey, okay, don't worry, princess."

Yiman nodded with a smile and turned to look at Bai Ningxiu.

He looked up and stared at her with starlight and admiration in his eyes, holding on to Yiman's sleeves. (End of chapter)
