v5 Chapter 121: Sweet as honey, the affairs of Shu County

"Huh?" Wen Boyun couldn't turn around, looked at the cake in his hand, and then looked at Dong Qinyan with a wicked smile, he had guesses in his heart, but he wasn't sure.

Seeing his stupid face, Dong Qinyan smiled directly, "This sweet as honey was specially given to me as a dowry by my mother, and the desserts in it were all developed by me and my mother together, you What did you bring me this time?" Dong Qinyan asked curiously.

He glanced at the cake in Wen Boyun's hand from time to time, and his eyes flashed with curiosity.

Sure! Wen Boyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this time. The dim sum that he took so much effort to bring into the palace turned out to be sold by his own family, which was really amazing.

"Princess, don't make fun of me, if I had known that you are the owner of this shop, I wouldn't have brought this to you, I would have changed it to something new that you haven't tried before. Now that everything has been brought into the palace, please trouble the princess to accept it!" Unknowingly, Wen Boyun no longer claimed to be a minister in front of Dong Qinyan, but used 'I', but he was very helpless now. Didn't notice it at all.

Dong Qinyan felt that the teasing was almost done, she nodded in a good mood, unwrapped the dim sum in front of Wen Boyun, and ate a small piece to give him face.

After Wen Boyun left, the wonderful talent said with a smile: "Princess, the concubine really cares about you, this 'sweet as honey' has not been open for a long time, and most of the people who go there are rich and noble. My wife and young lady, I guessed that the concubine heard the news and thought that the princess was a woman, and she should be no exception, but I didn't expect it to be self-defeating."

Dong Qinyan chuckled lightly: "He has a heart, let's go to Mingxiu Palace."

Dong Qinyan slowly restrained her smile, thinking of what Dong Yuanxu said just now, she felt it was necessary to consult with Gu Shuixiu.

In the Mingxiu Palace, Dong Chenghu has already gone to court, and is talking to Gu Shuixiu about the early court, with a sullen look on his face.

"The group of soft bastards, they were going to fight and kill when they heard it, and they all learned to behave like girls. Who used to scold the street like a shrew in the court? Now I know demure It's gone!"

Gu Shuixiu helplessly watched Dong Chenghu get angry, habitually not interrupting, waiting for Dong Chenghu to express all his anger before answering.

Dong Qinyan just came over at this time.

Dong Chenghu had to restrain his anger, looked at his precious daughter, and said with concern, "Didn't I just catch a cold yesterday, why did you come here so early today?"

Dong Qinyan shook her head, indicating that she was fine, "My father and mother, my eldest brother and Wen Boyun went to my Qingcheng Palace this morning. I heard my eldest brother talk about Shu County, and I know Cousin Zixuan is on his way to the southwest border, Father, have you thought about what to do?"

What are you here for!

Seeing this, Gu Shuixiu said slowly: "Niuniu, your father is angry about this, and no one came forward to propose a solution early today, and I don't know what those people thought. I really thought that Shu County was 108,000 miles away from Jiankang and they would sit back and relax, all thinking about drilling camps!"

"Then what about Wu Ning and Anping?" Dong Qinyan didn't believe they didn't help.

Dong Chenghu sighed, and then said calmly: "Of course they have thought of a way, but their brains can't come up with a perfect solution, and even the way they think of it is difficult to implement. Heart is not enough!

Brother, there is no way to take charge, this matter still has to find a reliable person. "

Dong Chenghu has many candidates in his heart, but he can't decide. The southwest border is now guarded by Shen Ziping's troops. Shen Ziping can trust him. Soldiers, otherwise it is easy to cause Tuyuhun's misunderstanding, the best way is to send troops from Jiankang to rush over.

Dong Qinyan suddenly suggested: "Father, let cousin Zixuan go, he brought a lot of people to the southwest this time, and he is already on the road now, if this matter is handed over To do it for him, presumably the father and emperor can rest assured.

Today Wen Boyun came up with an idea. He said that those mysterious people only haunt by land, and the terrain in the southwest is dangerous. If you want to set up border trade, the best way is to take the waterway. Why not open the waterway first. Transportation, suspend the opening of land routes, this is not a breach of contract.

. "

Dong Chenghu heard the words, his eyes lit up, and he asked in surprise, "You think Wen Boyun came up with this idea?"

Dong Qinyan nodded lightly, "The three of us were present when the eldest brother just said, I originally suggested that the eldest brother send Uncle Dong Wei to directly lead the troops to Shu County to suppress the bandits, there are pear blossom needles in the rainstorm. , We have a good chance of winning. But Wen Boyun doesn't think so, he suggested that the eldest brother first find out the details of those people and then make plans, open up water transportation, and eliminate those bandits in a hurry. "

Gu Shuixiu smiled approvingly on the side: "Your Majesty, this Wen Boyun is really surprising, I thought he was a promising young man with good skills and good character, but I didn't expect this brain to be like this. Wisdom, if there are more such people, the emperor can reduce the number of civil and military officials, and save some idle people who eat leisurely."

Dong Chenghu nodded, he thought so too.

Dong Qinyan was speechless, the officials were equipped according to the rules, how could she be so playful, and I don't know what her parents thought!

Just when Dong Qinyan was thinking about it, Dong Chenghu suddenly said: "I said before that this year, the marriage of your brothers and sisters will be completed. Marriage, I will marry you off in the twelfth lunar month."

"What?" Dong Qinyan's eyes widened in confusion, "Father, the twelfth lunar New Year is almost here, why are you in such a hurry? Don't you want your daughter to spend more New Year's Eve with you? ?"

Dong Chenghu felt distressed when he saw Dong Qinyan's pouting and aggrieved look, and quickly explained: "What nonsense! How could the father and mother not want you to stay in the palace for the New Year! It's just that You only showed your hand at the palace banquet last year and led to so many things, although now you are engaged, but the royal father can't guarantee that others will not attack you again, or marry as soon as possible and everyone will feel at ease."
