Chapter three hundred and ninety second delicate elephant play
"Your Highness has determined that the country is difficult to save?" Zhou Xian frowned.
Li Yu was stunned: "Why did Ehuang say this?"
Zhou Xian said casually: "Your Highness's implicit meaning is to get rid of Guo Shao; he mentioned the recent tribute matters... But you cannot rush to plan such things. The risk is too great, and it is even less likely to succeed; it is not that far. Isn't that thinking that the country is difficult to win, so that you can prepare this plan early?"
Li Yu turned his head and looked at the messy elephant play (chess) on the table next to him. He shook his head and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Ehuang is thinking too much, but because his father summoned him to ask about national policies today, I just thought about it casually."
After hearing this, Zhou Xian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It is true that Guo Shao is very important to the Zhou court, and Your Highness will inevitably think so. But that kind of wrong path is not the way to win. Your Highness should not place major issues on the means of assassination."
Li Yu nodded and held Zhou Xian's hand, his emotions fluctuated significantly: "Didn't you change your mind?"
Zhou Xian shook his head hard, and his eyes showed a hint of sadness: "Your Highness, let's forget about Tokyo... I feel like you don't trust me recently."
Li Yu said: "I treat Ehuang and the people of the Zhou family as well as before. Think about it, have I treated you badly after becoming the prince?"
Zhou Xian pondered for a moment and said hurriedly: "The weather is not good recently, so I may easily think about it."
Li Yu smiled and turned to look at the rain outside the door: "It's so heavy rain, but there is a night banquet at Han Xizai's mansion. I was invited. It's getting late now."
Zhou Xian gave a few words to send Li Yu out. She stood silently under the double eaves, watching Li Yu's back disappear in the corridor, and then she retracted her gaze. The rain in the sky had already fallen into line, and the snow on the roof of the tile fell rapidly, and it was bubbled on the water surface of the stone ditch. Zhou Xian couldn't help but reach out to follow a water line, and suddenly felt cold from the palm of his hand, and his whole body shivered slightly.
After returning to Jinling, I thought about it and thought about it, but I just lacked the truth that I could directly feel... Everything seemed to exist in my mind, as illusory as in a dream.
She slowly walked back to the bedroom from the palace, and her eyes were on the elephant play on the table. She suddenly thought: The winning method of elephant play is different from Go. The key to elephant play lies in the long run of the strategy. If you can take one step and see five steps, you will be the first to get started.
At a certain moment, Li Yu looked at Xiangxi, was he suggesting something? He suggested that his words "The country is hard to win" were far away, so he should have seen it... Li Yu is not very good at military and political practice, but he is still a very smart person.
Zhou Xian felt a little upset... It was Guo Shao who ruined all this, I hated him! No, I have forgotten him coldly.
Zhou Xian took out the newly drawn picture of plum blossoms, walked to the lamp holder and opened the copper cover. The embers were gone. She angrily tore into two petals, then she tore them to pieces desperately and threw them into the bowl next to her. The floating paper scraps were like falling flowers, and suddenly there seemed to be a sound: the lady was like plum blossoms, blooming in the bitter and cold wind and snow, but standing beautifully.
She fell on the couch, reached out to grab the blanket and covered her head, and said uncomfortable: "Why do you think you are like this? He probably forgot... sweet words are just lies!"
Guo Shao immediately replied: "I don't need a reward."
Fu Jinzhan whispered: "I heard that you and Shi Yanchao were racing horses and lost a good horse?"
"The Empress Dowager's insight into her hair." Guo Shao said.
Fu Jinzhan said: "There is a good horse in Beiyuan, which was a gift from the Dangxiang people to the late emperor. All the Bole who knew the horse praised it as a rare thousand-mile horse... Unfortunately, it is a wild horse and no one has tamed it yet. Is General Guo interested?"
Guo Shao had no title at all, but now the royal family wants to reward Qianli Horse as a gift. Such things can be done without politeness... Just like Shi Yanchao took Guo Shao's mount without politeness, but if Guo Shao asked Shi Yanchao to conduct inspections in front of the palace, I'm afraid Shi Yanchao would not dare to ask for it.
"I thank the Queen Mother for your kindness." Guo Shao bowed directly.
Fu Jinzhan said: "Today the sun is approaching the middle sky, and the weather is too hot. You can go to Beiyuan to see the horses early tomorrow."
"Abide by the order." Guo Shao said.
The figure in the curtain stood up, and soon the figure swayed, and the people inside disappeared from the curtain. Guo Shao then straightened up and turned around and went out. He walked out of the Jinxiang Hall and stood on the brick and stone floor. As expected, he felt that he was about to be roasted... In late summer, it was usually the hottest time.
I had already been to the Dianqiansi Office in the morning. The army has been quiet recently and the weather is very hot. Guo Shao himself felt lazy and didn't want to do anything. He looked at the height of the sun. He probably had lunch when he went home. So he went to Dianqiansi to have a meal at the public and then went home.
After entering the mansion, he walked past the rainbow-like Hongqiao Gate Tower, Guo Shao went straight to the largest house on the south bank of the pool, where his living room was. When he went in, he saw Fu Ermei, Li Yuaner, and Yulian were sitting next to the table, with some cleaned jewelry neatly placed on the table.
"Husband." Fu Ermei said happily, "You came back very early today."
When several women saw Guo Shao coming back, they all came up to greet him. Their faces were flushed and their excitement could not be concealed.
"It's all things from the Shu Kingdom palace, good things." Guo Shao glanced at the table and smiled, "I knew women liked these beautiful things... but I don't know why most women love these expensive things."
But there are exceptions. Fu Ermei was not particularly interested, she didn't even hit her ears.
Fu Ermei sat back at the table and chuckled, "Of course I don't understand. Women don't think there are too many jewelry and clothes, especially beautiful women." She smiled and her eyes were as curved as the moon: "Because I have to change it, I wear different jewelry on different occasions. If there are so many, women would rather not repeat it for 360 days a year."
Guo Shao said seriously: "So that's it, I've been taught."
"This pair of earrings is quite special." Guo Shao picked up a pair of round gold and jade "earrings" like bells, and saw that the carvings were fine and the internal hollow structure was complex. "Is this good to wear on the ear?"
Fu Ermei took it over and took a look, curled her lips and said, "It's so ugly. My husband also said that the Shu Palace is full of good things, who wears such things?"
Guo Shaoruo thoughtfully: "It's not something worn on the ears?"
Fu Ermei asked, "Where do you wear it if you don't wear it?"
Guo Shao pointed his thumb quietly. Several people looked at him without saying a word, and their ears turned red.
Guo Shao also felt a little embarrassed. He just took it randomly at the beginning, and he really didn't care about what jewelry it was. Anyway, colorful things must be good... In this era, artificial means can't create gems, pearls and other things.
Fu Ermei frowned and picked up a string of white pearls, dressed like a string of barbecue quail eggs: "This thing..."
Li Yuan'er said quietly: "It's not a good thing anyway, no wonder Shu Kingdom is going to destroy it, what's happening in the palace!"
