Reborn 1980 Married to the toughest guy in the army

Chapter 1412: The Strategist Falls

It has been 10 days since the notice was posted, but still no decent counselor has been found.

This made Tang Qiuyue a little irritated.

Just when I was thinking about how to solve the problem, someone suddenly came in to report.

"Princess, there is a man outside who has taken down a notice to respond to the call."

Tang Qiuyue no longer had the initial joy she had.

She waved her hand and said, "Bring him in."

Soon, the man outside walked in.

The first time Tang Qiuyue looked up at that person, she was stunned.

The next moment, I felt something was wrong, but I couldn't put my finger on it for a while.

The sense of disobedience was really strong.

how to say?

In fact, the person in front of her was quite good-looking, and gave her a very familiar feeling, and she had a special liking for him.

But something just doesn't feel right.

She looked him up and down, and suddenly an idea flashed through her mind.

She asked tentatively: "Are you Lin Ruan?"

After she finished her words, Lin Ruan deliberately cleared her throat.

"Princess, I am here to apply for a position as a counselor."

"I am Luochen."

Falling into dust?

Tang Qiuyue was silent for a moment, and looked at the other person with a hint of smile in her eyes. She waved her hand and said, "Please sit down, Mr. Luochen."

Then Tang Qiuyue began to test the other party.

The test is naturally not on the Four Books and Five Classics, but on the views on the imperial court, the people's livelihood, and the world situation.

Luochen talked freely.

At first, there was a hint of teasing in Tang Qiuyue's eyes.

But after Luochen said something, her expression became serious.

At the end, there was a serious look on his face.

Finally, Tang Qiuyue pondered for a moment and asked, "What do you think of a woman being the emperor?"

Luo Chen frowned, as if he didn't expect Tang Qiuyue to ask such a question.

After a while, she narrowed her eyes and said solemnly: "For the people, it doesn't matter whether the emperor is a man or a woman. What matters is whether he can make sure the people have enough food to eat and live in peace and contentment."

"As long as you can do these things, what does it matter if you are the queen?"

Tang Qiuyue followed up by asking, "What if the officials and noble families in the court disagree with this?"

"In their view, women should stay at home to take care of their husbands and children."

"If a woman becomes the emperor, wouldn't that be like a hen crowing at dawn, and against the will of heaven?"

Luo Chen snorted coldly: "At the beginning of the world, there was no saying that men are superior to women."

"In earlier times, the main clan system was matriarchal."

"People who say these things are just trying to protect their own interests."

"If such a person hinders the Empress' progress, he should be killed." When she said this, her tone was sonorous and powerful.

The word "kill" sounded full of murderous intent.

When Tang Qiuyue heard this, she smiled with the corners of her lips curled up.

She walked forward and hugged Luochen, patting her shoulder and praising her:

"That's very nice of you to say."

"We have a deal. If I become the queen someday, you will work hard to become my prime minister."

“I’ve been waiting for a day like this.”

Luo Chen curled the corners of his lips and started laughing too.

The two chatted happily, and after sitting down, Tang Qiuyue said, "Are you going to walk in front of me like this in the future?"

"Since you said you don't care what others say, why do you have to act like this?"

Luo Chen, also known as Lin Ruan, winked at her playfully and said, "We have to plant one of our people in the enemy camp."

"If I were a woman, they would resist instinctively and wouldn't even take my words to heart."

"But if I become a man, and have an important position among them."

"Even if I publicly suggest that you take the throne of the empress one day, they will have to think about whether they should object."

Lin Ruan's words touched Tang Qiuyue's heart.

She nodded with satisfaction and said, "I didn't expect that the woman who has always been by my side would have such a domineering side."

"But this is exactly what I want."

"Okay, from today on you will stay by my side and become my counselor under the name of Luochen."

"When you wear women's clothes, you are Lin Ruan, and when you change into men's clothes, you are Luo Chen." Lin Ruan's eyebrows were stained with a smile, and he clasped his fists and said, "I obey your command."

After saying this, both of them burst into laughter.

Then Luo Chen sat beside him and whispered, "I wonder what your plans are, Your Majesty. When do you plan to ascend the throne?"

Tang Qiuyue thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry for now."

"We will ascend the throne when we want to march north and capture the imperial city."

"If I ascend the throne early, it will trigger strong protests from all over the country. By then, the new emperor might stir up trouble and let those vassal kings deal with me."

"As for now..."

"Let's accumulate strength first in order to plan for future development!"

Lin Ruan nodded. She agreed with this.

Qiuyue asked, "How is your son?"

These days Tang Qiuyue lived in the bamboo forest in the suburbs and did not live in Mingcheng, so she didn't know how Lin Ruan and the child were doing.

When she left, she arranged a decent place for Lin Ruan to live and didn't bother her any more.

Lin Ruan smiled and said, "After many attempts, I found that this boy is simply a genius. He has a photographic memory."

"When he was little, he often liked to go to his parents' study to read books."

"You also know that my father-in-law is the Grand Secretary of Wenhua Pavilion."

"How many books does he have in his house? Even I don't have an exact number."

“It’s almost the same if there are not thousands of copies.”

"Whether he understood it or not, this kid wrote it all down."

"I've tested my teaching several times these days."

"No matter which ones, as long as I can remember the names, he can recite them by heart." "But he doesn't like to talk. Maybe it's because he hasn't spoken for a long time, so he keeps his thoughts to himself."

"But if you ask him, he will still tell you."

Tang Qiuyue was shocked.

I didn't expect Xiaorui to be such a genius.

And her shock did not end there.

Lin Ruan continued, "He found a diary in his father-in-law's study, and also found something drawn by a talented person. It was a map."

"This map is a map of all the counties and cities in the entire Tang Dynasty."

Tang Qiuyue was extremely surprised, and suddenly remembered that about seven or eight years ago, there was a crazy Taoist who beat the drum outside the imperial gate and wanted to see the emperor.

At that time, the emperor was not so stupid and had not killed his uncle, so he ordered someone to bring the Taoist priest in. The Taoist priest claimed that he had traveled to every region and city in the entire Tang Dynasty.

He drew the map himself and gave it to his father.

When my father saw the map, he didn't take it seriously.

He just felt that these lands originally belonged to him.

It's not a war, why look at the map?

He then gave it to the emperor's uncle, Tang Qiuyue's biological father.
