Chapter 677

Outside the bedroom.

Wen Ruyu had just sent away the ministers who had talked with him about state affairs, and then slowly walked over. In fact, it is reasonable. In terms of appearance and temperament, Wen Ruyu is still better than Wen Ruyan. She is dressed in purple She wears a long gown, a jade crown on her head, long hair casually draped behind her back, and a suet jade pendant hanging around her waist. She has a slender figure, and her every move shows an extraordinary demeanor.

Seeing him coming, the maid outside the bedroom hurriedly bowed down and gave a blessing, Wen Ruyu waved her hand with a smile, the maid who was trembling because of the princess's anger immediately dissipated the panic in her heart when she saw his warm smile like a spring breeze go down.

"Is the princess here?" Wen Ruyu asked with a smile.

"Go back to His Royal Highness, the Crown Princess is here." The maid hurriedly answered with her head bowed.

"Okay, let's go back then."

"Yes."

The maid bowed her head and left, Wen Ruyu stepped forward and opened the door and walked in.

The crown princess who was sitting by the table rubbing her brows heard the movement outside the door, and quickly took a deep breath, forcing out the hostility in her heart, and then quickly got up to greet Wen Ruyu with a strong face and a smile.

Wen Ruyu opened the door and walked in. The Crown Princess greeted her with a smile and said, "Aren't you discussing something with the ministers of the Ministry of War? Why did you come back suddenly?"

After closing the door, Wen Ruyu took her hand, walked to the table and sat down, then said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, and we don't need to discuss it for too long."

The Crown Princess took her hand from his hand and stood behind him, gently kneading his shoulders, and said, "Is it about silver taels again?"

Wen Ruyu squinted her eyes slightly to enjoy her service, then nodded and said: "In the past, the treasury was empty, and they had to bear it no matter how difficult it was, but this time the second brother rectified Jingzhou and brought back a lot of silver taels? This silver tael Just after entering the warehouse, they were followed by these adults. The Ministry of Industry wanted to renovate the city gate of Yanjing, the Ministry of War wanted to replace the soldiers of the patrol battalion with weapons, the Ministry of Officials wanted to pay the officials what they owed, and the Ministry of Punishment wanted to expand the sky prison. The ridiculous thing is that the Ministry of Rituals even stepped in, saying that this year's royal sacrifices should also be raised. Alas, everyone is asking me for money, but the second brother sent back so much silver. To whom?"

Speaking of the end, Wen Ruyu couldn't help but sighed. During this period of time, he had spent a lot of effort to deal with the adults of these ministries. In the past, when the treasury had no money, nothing happened. Now that he has money, it adds to him. A lot of trouble.

Wen Ruyu has supervised state affairs for so many years, so he naturally knows what is important and what is not. Now that the new emperor of Southern Chu has ascended the throne, he is making drastic adjustments to the court. Could it be that Wen Ruyu can't see clearly what the new emperor wants to do?
Sooner or later, there will be war between the two countries. If all the silver is used up now, and the war will start in the future, what should he use to mobilize troops to deal with it?

Therefore, it is impossible to give this money to these adults right now, but if you don’t give it or not, there are some things that you can’t say on the face. These adults are all people who have been in the officialdom for many years. How can it be explained to them?
For this reason, Wen Ruyu spent a lot of time trying to appease them!

Hearing his complaint, the princess also smiled slightly, then bowed her head and slowly leaned her head on his shoulder, and comforted softly: "It's okay, I'll get over it."

Wen Ruyu smiled wryly, and said, "It's difficult! Father is now the shopkeeper, leaving all these matters to me. It's really troublesome."

After saying this, he sighed again, and then said: "I finally hoped that my second brother would come back, I thought he could help me, but in the end he stayed in Yanjing for a month, I went to find him He gave me advice and he didn't even care about it, this brat, it's really hateful."

The princess smiled and said, "Second brother is not idle now? He was sent out by the emperor to inspect various states and counties, so don't complain."

It's okay not to mention this, but Wen Ruyu became even angrier when it was mentioned: "To be honest, I really want to change with him, let him stay in Yanjing to deal with this big mess, and I will go to inspect various states and counties Already!"

The crown prince's face froze, and then forced a smile and said: "Don't be kidding, you are the current prince, so naturally you have to sit in the capital of the country. How can you go out to inspect various states and counties?"

Wen Ruyu snorted softly: "I knew it would be so tiring to be the prince. Back then, I was as clumsy as that brat. Whoever loves to be the one can do it! Only now do I understand what that brat Ruyan thinks. How good it is to be an idle prince, reading and writing all day, listening to a little song and fishing, nothing to worry about, so happy!"

As soon as he said these words, the Crown Princess who was leaning on his shoulders suddenly stood up, with a hint of panic appearing on her face!
Wen Ruyu was taken aback by her sudden movement, couldn't help but turned to look at her and said, "What's wrong with you?"

The Crown Princess looked into his eyes seriously and asked word by word: "Are you serious about what you said just now?"

Seeing her expression, Wen Ruyu instantly understood what she was thinking, turned her head and sighed, "How about being serious? How about joking? The second brother has no intention of being the throne, so I can force him to be the crown prince?" "

The princess's face turned pale immediately, and the hostility that she had suppressed forcibly rose up uncontrollably in an instant.

At present, Wen Ruyan's reputation has already made her feel vigilant, how can she not be in a hurry when she hears Wen Ruyu complaining like this?
Although Wen Ruyu said it very easily, who can be sure of what will happen in the future?What the Crown Princess is most afraid of is that Wen Ruyu has the idea of ​​quitting the business. If he really has this idea, the Emperor Zhou will find out about it, and what Wen Ruyan has done for more than a year , can he still sit securely in the East Palace?

Thinking of this, the princess immediately exclaimed: "No way!"

"What's wrong?" Wen Ruyu frowned.

The Crown Princess lowered her head and looked into his eyes seriously, and said word by word: "You must not have such thoughts in your heart. How much have you paid for the affairs of the country over the years as the Crown Prince? How can you have such thoughts at this time?" Thoughts? You must sit firmly in the position of prince, no one can let you down."

"Min'er, you seem to be very concerned about my status as the crown prince?" Wen Ruyu's eyes suddenly became deep when she looked at her.

Ever since Wen Ruyu warned me about this last time, the Crown Princess really didn't want to argue with him about this matter anymore, but now that it's all about this, how can she act like she hasn't heard anything before? ?
"That's right, I really care about your prince's status! Which one of the things you have done for Da Zhou these years have I not noticed? I often deal with memorials until midnight, and I have to deal with the trivial matters of various adults every day. When there are natural and man-made disasters in Zhouzhou, you can't wait to go there to solve them yourself! You have been the prince at the age of 16, and you have been a prince for eight full years! Have you ever lived a comfortable and stable life in these eight years?"

The more the crown princess spoke, the more angry she became: "You should be rewarded for your hard work. After so many years of hard work, the throne in the future should belong to you. No one deserves it except you!"
