Chapter 7

Liu Piaopiao turned her body to look at Liu Wenlan at the right time.With a shy smile on his face: "Thank you, Second Sister, for giving me the hairpin."

Liu Wenlan got up logically to respond to Liu Piaopiao's thanks, it was a bit windy at night.The hem of the clothes is flying, and the body is thin.Polygonatum odoratum stands upright, obviously sick and weak but has a strong character.She raised her eyes to look at Lu Ji, and seeing that the other party also responded to her gaze at this time, she smiled mildly.

"I think Piao Piao is very simple on weekdays, and she doesn't know how to dress up. I just made this hairpin, and it should match my sister well. Sure enough, it makes her a lot more lively."

After all, Liu Wenlan no longer looked at Lu Ji.Instead, he stared at Liu Piaopiao, really looking like a sister.

There is no way, Liu Piaopiao can only follow along.Laughing so much that his cheeks were a little sour, the person in the seat finally spoke. He first praised Liu Wenlan's skillful craftsmanship, and then praised Liu Piaopiao's vivacity.The end is a rain and dew are dripping watertight.

With a big wave of Lu Ji's hand, he gave wine to the two, not forgetting Liu Yufu who was twisting the handkerchief beside him.

Looking around, Liu Yufu is the most graceful among the three sisters of the Liu family.She is also the favorite candidate for the crown princess of the queen and Liu Yirong.But Lu Ji doesn't want to marry a wife now, and one more thing, besides Liu Yufu, Liu Wenlan seems to be a little bit ready to move.

Lu Ji knew that he couldn't do without Zhongshu Ling's support if he wanted to ascend the Great Treasure.

He changed the topic, and mentioned Liu Yufu who was bored by the side, and the girl's eyes lit up instantly.

"The queen mother misses Yufu very much recently."

Liu Yufu, who was still gnashing her teeth just now, suddenly stretched her brows and showed a smile, her bright eyes were shining like deer.

"Then Yufu will go to the palace to accompany my aunt in two days."

Lu Ji nodded: "Tomorrow, the first day of the lunar new year, please enter the palace alone, and you will be with me."

Liu Yufu blessed her body: "Okay, please trouble Brother Prince to give me a ride."

Lu Ji smiled: "It doesn't matter."

Liu Piaopiao could clearly see from below that Lu Ji had been holding his clothes under the table for almost half an hour.It means that he is very irritable now, and he didn't relax until discussing state affairs with Liu Yirong.

Coconut cake was greasy in her throat, I don't know which cook did it so honestly, Liu Piaopiao drank several sips of sweet wine before she calmed down, she felt that this wine was much sweeter than the morning one.Looking around, Liu Yufu started to talk again as before. Every time she interjected, Lu Ji had to twist his clothes and respond to her with a smile.For this reason, Liu Piaopiao always felt that Lu Ji's smile was impatient.

Liu Wenlan was much smarter, she didn't speak, and only occasionally expressed some opinions when Lu Ji and Liu Yirong were discussing state affairs.For example, when mentioning the flood in Yizhou, Liu Wenlan would say: "I think you can ask Gu Yanshu for advice. After all, he performed very well in managing the flood in Jingzhou, didn't he?"

Lu Ji really looked at Liu Wenlan a few more times.

"Second Miss said yes, I will consider it."

Liu Wenlan smiled shyly: "The minister said casually, it would be best to help His Highness."

"Your proposal is very good."

Liu Piaopiao watched Lu Ji praise Liu Wenlan, and Liu Yufu who was beside her was almost jumping.He made several winks at Liu Qian but got no response.

"why are you laughing?"

Oops, found out.

Liu Piaopiao swallowed the coconut cake in her throat and let it go.

"The coconut cake is delicious, so I laughed."

Liu Yufu rolled her eyes, suddenly pointed at Liu Piaopiao and said, "Your Highness, Liu Piaopiao has a better idea!"

Big head, very big head.

Even though today was a family banquet, Lu Ji couldn't do anything like poking a knife behind his back.But if a courtier's daughter talks about state affairs indiscriminately, if it gets out, it will inevitably be made a fuss by someone with a heart.

Liu Piaopiao felt that the coconut cake was stuck in her chest and she couldn't breathe. She quietly raised her eyes to look at Lu Ji, and accidentally met her gaze again.The other party also asked her to have any suggestion, just say it, even Liu Yirong, who was always serious, kindly waited for her to speak at this moment.

He De He Neng He De He Neng.

Riding a tiger is hard to get off, Liu Piaopiao bites the bullet and speaks.

"I feel that although Gu Yanshu is very good at controlling floods, Jingzhou is flat, and the floods are mostly due to the abundance of rain that causes the rivers to overflow. Therefore, it is good to build dams and dredge the water. Yizhou is mostly mountains and rivers. When it rains There are frequent mudslides, and water conservancy dredging is difficult. Gu Yanshu may not be able to do it well. Another Jingzhou is rich in the south, and Yizhou is far away where snakes, rats, rats and ants are rampant.

There was sudden silence all around, Liu Piaopiao bravely looked up and saw Lu Ji's solemn expression, knowing that he had hit the point.Lu Ji didn't necessarily know, but he didn't know if he would be displeased by saying so much.

Companion to a king is like companion to a tiger, and it is not good to be too right.What if people don't like you trying to figure out his mind?

"My humble opinion, Your Highness, don't take it to heart."

Look again, Lu Ji grabbed the hem of his clothes fiercely.

Liu Piaopiao's heart rose to her throat again.

Staring at her with black and white eyes, Liu Piaopiao swallowed hard and finally waited for Lu Ji's response.

"Miss Fifth has a lot of research on court affairs."

Liu Piaopiao's face turned pale, thanks to the fact that Zhou Wen was a clean official in her previous life.Knowing that there is a great prefect in Yizhou, it is Wang Fengtian, the capital water supervisor who first managed the flood.

It was only at this time that Liu Piaopiao knew that she had committed a big taboo. She could understand Chaotang, but only at a deeper level.Even if you know it, you have to hide your tail well, and you can't be caught by others.Especially in front of the power center, too thorough understanding will only lead to death.

Liu Piaopiao fell to her knees in panic, this damn knee bears the unbearable weight of life, the pain made Liu Piaopiao's eyes watery.

"The ministers dare not."

Lu Ji was still staring at her, with a faint smell of blood in the silence.It was a long time before he spoke.

In his hoarse voice, there was a bit of dry saliva after a long time together, as if he had pondered a lot.

It shouldn't be said here that there is a rule in this dynasty that women are not allowed to talk about the court.Liu Wenlan just raised her mouth a little, but Liu Piaopiao broke the question and put it on the stage brightly.

"Such ingenuity should go to the palace as a female official."

He chose to give Liu Yirong a reassurance, letting him know that he didn't mind the other party's daughter talking about court affairs, because they were absolute allies.

Lu Ji waved Liu Piaopiao to sit down: "Look at you, your face is pale with fright."

Unexpectedly, she is quite insightful.But who should use Gu Yanshu, Lu Ji couldn't think of it.Far from the court, officials outside the imperial court are more difficult to control than officials in the capital.

Liu Piaopiao let out a long sigh of relief, and will not speak again next time.She looked across, and sure enough Liu Yufu's face turned pale with fright.

"Liu Piaopiao, how dare you say it, if there are other people sitting here, you will be beheaded, do you know?"

She knew that she was grateful for Lu Ji's kindness.
