: Watching the flowers

When the drums on the various arch towers in Chang'an City rang one after another, it was sunset. If it was sunny, it would not be sunny today. The sun was cloudy outside the Danfeng Gate soon became lively. The officials at the duty station came out from outside, and there were many domestic slaves, grooms and other people outside the palace, and there were a lot of people.

Xue Chongxun rarely saw the situation of the palace city, because he always "retreats early", and at most he went to see the emperor without working on his daily life. Only when the Ministry of Revenue established a money store recently, he led it to him, so he often walked around the Shangshu Province.

A group of carriages and horses walked south along Danfeng Street, and the people on both sides were familiar faces. Pang Er, Jixiang, Fang, Yu Zhong and other slaves almost every day; there were also Li Kuiyong and other Flying Tiger Regiment Guards, and some soldiers Xue Chongxun were not famous because they didn't talk to them on weekdays, but they looked very familiar.

Sanniang was also sitting in the carriage. Her job was to protect Xue Chongxun's safety in close proximity. Although Xue Chongxun was also a martial artist, he was not very proficient in methods such as assassination. He should be safer with her around him. Sanniang was also a dull man. It is rare to hear her say something. When she was on the road, Xue Chongxun's ears were mostly filled with Jixiang's mumbling words that made the groom's husband Pang Er play.

Unexpectedly, Sanniang exchanged a greeting today, and she said lightly: "Mr. I look a little tired."

"Is that right?" Xue Chongxun said casually.

Then when Sanniang heard "um" sound, there was no further information. Xue Chongxun was not surprised. She had such a personality. It was surprising that she could put up a sentence that sounded caring for others.

Tired? After Sanniang reminded me, Xue Chongxun really felt a little tired. He didn't do anything in the court all day, mainly because of psychological pressure.

Now that the stall is opened, Xue Chongxun finds it difficult to control it. He is self-aware and is not good at general principles. He admires the ability of Zhuge Liang, who can understand the world's context by sitting at home like Zhuge Liang. Unfortunately, he is obviously not that great. He is probably not that powerful. He is more likely to be able to survive until now. He has the resources created by Princess Taiping, and he is from a clan. He also beat Li Longji at a key point.

He had the advantage of being foresighted against Li Longji, but now this situation is not as good as before... Empress Dowager Gao ruled the country behind the curtain to control the power. What consequences would this matter have? Will it inspire conflicts? Xue Chongxun himself was not sure. The world is too big, and there are only a few things that can be held by a person. Who knows what will happen?

All he can do is to make the situation develop in a direction that is conducive to his own rule as much as possible, because the situation he faces is reasonable and righteous only when he has the final say. Once others have the final say, they will wait to die. Looking at the world with a dark eye, that's the truth.

Xue Chongxun believes that the step of "money method" is done correctly, which is not only conducive to making money, but also a layout.

A few years ago, Zhang Shuo proposed the official and healthy law, which made the army more professional and freed more strong men from military service, which was conducive to economic development. Tax growth in the past two years and the prosperity of several major cities in Kanto showed the problem; and the success of the "money law" reform is undoubtedly a stimulant to the ancient economy, and the prosperity of the market will be foreseen soon. Because once the banknotes obtain credit and have a hard reserve within the safe range, five banknotes can be issued. Once the total amount and circulation of the currency increase, isn't the result very obvious?

As long as the economy of the Tang Dynasty could continue to flourish, it would be difficult to have a large-scale turmoil. The subjects were very practical. How many people rebelled with their heads before they had no food to eat?

In the past few months, Xue Chongxun reads "Biography of Wang Mang" from time to time, and reads the similar story of Wang Mang usurping the power. It is quite difficult for him, because he reads traditional Chinese without punctuation. Before that, he really couldn't understand what Wang Mang's story was, but he just knew that there was this person. In the late Western Han Dynasty, if there were no economic problems, a large number of bandits appeared, it was hard to say whether Emperor Guangwu could have the capital to turn over.

Therefore, Xue Chongxun concluded that allowing people all over the world to live in an economic prosperity can better avoid the difficulties faced by Wang Mang.

Xue Chongxun thought about the context of the money law in his mind for a while, and then thought that the central power structure was coming, he was indeed a little worried that Empress Dowager Gao would inspire some contradictions. Once the aristocratic family and public opinion in the public opinion, the regime would be illegal. It would be even more illegal to regulate public opinion and implement high-pressure policies. The ancients have said that guarding the people is better than defending the river... If the government is not understood, everything will be done, and it is useless to occupy the Daming Palace in Chang'an.

So after Xue Chongxun returned to Anyifang, he first went to the princely kingdom and told Wang Changling that Empress Dowager Gao was about to listen to politics, asking him to convene his confidant aides to hold a meeting tomorrow and write out his opinions and strategies in the near future.

Isn’t the staff team just doing this? However, Xue Chongxun still felt that Li Guishou had a better understanding of ancient politics, but unfortunately it was difficult to receive this person.

After a while, he walked into the inner house and looked at the scenery of green trees and new branches and flowers blooming in the garden, and felt much more relaxed. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that in the morning, Sun said that he wanted him to go to Tingyu Lake to see the flowers, and he agreed to adjust his mood.

It's almost dark and there's no sunshine. It's not the best time to enjoy flowers in this weather, but I have to settle down.

After walking north, there was Tingyu Lake. The courtyard of the study was on the banks of Tingyu Lake. When Xue Chongxun walked to the lake, he looked at the sparkling lake and remembered that the name was taken by Jincheng. When he turned around, the branches of the peach forest were already full of ***. In a short time, the peach blossoms would be fragrant. He seemed to see a fairy-like woman smiling like a flower, and her turning skirt was particularly beautiful. He really missed Jincheng. Today, he went to Chengxiang Palace to meet Empress Dowager Gao during the day, but he didn't see her in the same palace. He couldn't help but sigh.

As soon as he walked to the entrance of the study yard, he saw that Sun was already waiting there. Seeing that Xue Chongxun was unstoppable, he tried to suppress his emotions and said, "I saw that Xue Lang hadn't come back for a long time, so I asked the kitchen to prepare the dishes outside the study. I could only drink and enjoy the flowers and enjoy the flowers together with dinner."

Xue Chongxun smiled and said, "It's good, I'm sorry." The two walked into the yard together and walked into the road under the eaves. Xue Chongxun asked again, "Where is Yan'er?"

Sun whispered: "I asked her to go to Concubine Cheng."

It turned out that she was ready. Xue Chongxun turned her head and looked at Sun's face, which became more and more delicate. Although she still maintained a dignified posture with her neck straight, the expectation and sweetness in her expression were completely different from the usual old-fashioned dignity, and it was easy for Xue Chongxun to notice it.

After a short period of time, Sun was in a good mood and asked about his well-being. His soft words were like a warm current, warming Xue Chongxun's tired body and mind. For a moment, he felt soft and warm. Xue Chongxun's mood was better and thought to himself: To be honest, Sun was really good. He was much better than a little girl. He could manage housework and comfort people, as if the surroundings were full of maternal love.

At this time, the gray sky seemed to be less depressed. When I walked to the pool at the back door of the study, I suddenly saw a few cherry trees covered with white flowers, like beautiful snowflakes. The sky and the earth were bright, and the spring flowers became vivid.

The two of them had dinner under the beautiful scenery, and Sun also drank some wine. During this period, two maids from Sun's room were waiting. Sun talked about family fun things, but Xue Chongxun didn't have much, and occasionally spoke with a very interested look. Naturally, he wouldn't tell Sun about the court affairs such as the empress dowager's responsibilities. If it were Jincheng, Xue Chongxun might have said it.

Seeing that Sun's sweet smile often hangs on her face, she knew that she was in high spirits. Perhaps she had been thinking about Xue Chongxun all day long... If this were in modern times, she would not know what to stick to, but at this moment, Sun at the dinner didn't say a single ambiguous word. Xue Chongxun gradually got used to this implicit love.

After dinner, the maids packed the table and Sun said, "Xue Lang is good at writing poetry, so how about writing poetry?"

"Writing a poem?" Xue Chongxun felt depressed.

Sun took the opportunity to fight the maid beside him: "You go out first and let Xue Lang be quiet for a while."

"Yes." Xiao Cui and others bent their legs and avoided them.

Seeing this, Xue Chongxun suddenly realized: It turned out that she meant this, and I don’t have to think hard about which song I still remember. He couldn’t help but smile and said, “Does sir, still want me to write poems?”

Sun stood up and slowly pulled the wooden lattice door, and said nervously: "If you give up later, we..."

Xue Chongxun looked at her undulating plump breasts and swallowed a mouthful, but said calmly: "It's almost dark, and there is nothing behind the trees behind it, but this door is bolted from the inside. What should I do if someone suddenly breaks in?"

"Probably not?" Sun said softly, "Besides, those two girls have followed me for a long time, and even if they know, they don't dare to say it out."

Xue Chongxun nodded: "It's impossible to hide this kind of thing from everyone after a long time. Even if you don't encounter it, it will make the people around you feel suspicious. Just take care of them."

Sun lowered his head and walked over slowly, tremblingly said, "What are you doing while standing?"

After hearing this, Xue Chongxun hugged her slender waist and walked into her arms. With a soft cry, her soft breasts leaned over, and a trace of the smell of a nice woman's body came to her nose.

"Didn't you agree to that one time yesterday?" Xue Chongxun whispered in her ear.

Sun's ears turned red and he couldn't answer. Xue Chongxun held her face and asked her to raise her head, but she could not look at each other affectionately and looked elsewhere, but the blushing color on her face was a unique charm.
