Chapter 341, the emperor's advice

As soon as the palace gate opened, Prime Minister Zhang got the news. The uncles of the great country and the uncles of the two countries were all by his side. Prime Minister Zhang said suspiciously, "Six ministers stayed in the palace all night, and I'm afraid the emperor has made an edict."

"It can only be Prince Jing, and it will no longer be someone else." The uncle of the big country and the uncle of the second country have the same view. Prime Minister Zhang only felt that it was strange that several ministers and King Liang stayed in the palace all night, but he couldn't think of any other thoughts, so he could only say, "That's it. From today on, you should be careful all the time.

The great uncle came forward and said, "Father, Prince Jing ascended the throne, and the emperor may not weaken his foreign relatives." Prime Minister Zhang Cheng shook his head: "With the presence of King Liang, the emperor should entrust his orphans with him. With the presence of the King of Liang, it is also a matter of weakening foreign relatives."

Prime Minister Zhang walked in the room, as if talking to himself and talking to his two sons: "In the past, Han Wu said that the mother's strong son was young, and the disaster of the country was also abrupt to death." He stroked his forehead and talked as he walked.

What the two-nation uncle wanted to say was stopped by the great-country uncle. Zhang Cheng seemed to be thoughtful: "In the Han Dynasty, the foreign relatives were in charge. It was also his reason that the emperor didn't let me go last night."

The big uncle then smiled: "Father, don't worry. There is still a sister in the palace. She is always your daughter." Prime Minister Zhang Cheng posted: "Your sister has always been a fool. To this extent, she is all planning for her father.

Thinking of Empress An, as well as the more intelligent Prince Jing and Prince Ye, Prime Minister Zhang smiled slightly. Where did the ghosts and gods come from in the world? If so, where are they?

"In your opinion, is it so simple for the emperor to make an edict?" Prime Minister Zhang suddenly asked his two sons. The great uncle was stunned, and the second uncle replied first, "What else can I do?" The uncle of the great country suddenly remembered and looked awe-in: "King Liang, the king of Liang is far away and close to us."

Zhang Cheng stroked his beard: "That's smart. The important minister in the court, you have seen which one is not good with King Liang and which one is not good. He took Chu Shaofu's son to drink and asked you to hunt another day. His Royal Highness King Liang is an indispensable arm of the emperor.

The big uncle heard it silently and retreated aside without saying anything.

"Let your mother go to the palace tomorrow to see if she can know the queen's condition." Prime Minister Zhang was a little angry: "The doctors are useless. I don't even know whether the emperor is old or new?"

Uncle Daguo thought to himself, what about the old disease, and what about the new disease? Just thinking so, he didn't say anything.

The next day, Mrs. Zhang Cheng entered the palace and came back to tell Zhang Cheng: "My daughter looks good. She said that the emperor just had a relapse of her old illness. I asked sideways, and there was nothing wrong in the palace.

Prime Minister Zhang smiled bitterly. This daughter is indeed a fool.

When the first light snow fell, Zhao Cunzong, the young prince of King Zhongshan, entered the palace. Walking in the palace corridor, Zhao Cunzong was careful when he thought of the rumor that the emperor was seriously ill recently. He didn't know whether it was a blessing or not for him to enter the palace today.

When he came in, he saw that the emperor looked good. He was already thin, and it was not easy to see if he was thinner. Seeing Zhao Cunzong coming in, he was pleasant: "Come here."

Zhao Cunzong bowed to a few steps away from the emperor and knelt down to salute. The emperor smiled and said, "Faling, Cunzong, what have you been doing recently?"

"Ten days ago, I was in the Xishan Camp, and the discipline of the Xishan Army was strict..." As soon as he said this, the emperor laughed again and sounded very happy: "I ask you what kind of recreational things do you do at home? It's snowing outside. Are you cooking tea around the stove, or go hunting quickly?

Zhao Cunzong was somewhat relieved to hear here. Seeing that the emperor's complexion was not like a patient, Zhao Cunzong was still uncertain. There are many tonics in the palace, which make people unable to see it, and there will also be things.

Zhao Cunzong does not want the emperor to be ill. Empress Zhang is a real virtuous person. Of course, she is also full of filial piety. Zhao Cunzong suddenly gave birth to a positive heart when he asked himself about his usual interesting things with a smile.

He replied cheerfully, "I usually read more military books, read historical classics, shoot hunting in my spare time, and go to the boring building when drinking." The emperor nodded with a smile and asked, "What is the boring building?"

"Go back to the emperor, it is a restaurant. This building is full of people, and there are only 24 tables, combined with the number of bright moons on the 24 bridges, looking at the moon upstairs, looking down at the moon in the water, looking down at the moon downstairs, looking up at the silver wheels in the sky." Zhao Cunzong replied, and the emperor couldn't help laughing: "In such a good place, I'm afraid there are people singing songs in the restaurant, and storytellers should be a place of nature. Who is so interesting and takes the word boring?

Zhao Cunzong wanted to laugh but did not dare to smile. He replied, "It's Chu Shaofu's son Huaixian." The emperor laughed loudly: "I remember that his literature is in high school. People in this high school use it here." After laughing, Zhao Cunzong replied, "Your Highness the King of Liang went in person and took the upper couplet, and Huaixian went to the lower couplet."

Returning the couplet, the emperor shook his head and smiled: "No, this couplet is average." But you still have to laugh when you think about it. The famous restaurant is also called Xiaoqing. It's boring, and it's not afraid of having a flattering name, and it doesn't want to go in at first sight.

The emperor was in high interest today and said to Zhao Cunzong, "What kind of boring method is it? Tell me." Seeing that he liked it, Zhao Cunzong said the interesting places one by one: "It's only been a few months since the opening, and the interesting flowers change at any time in the four seasons. When it first opened, the wooden flower shelf was fragrant for ten miles. The pool was a little far from the downstairs. Of course, it was good to see the moon at night, but I had to go downstairs to see the fish during the day. The owner is interesting. The pool water is clarified every day. The fish inside are all red or colorful, and you can see a few lights on your palm clearly at night.

"This place is good," the emperor was very interested in hearing this. Zhao Cunzong said again, "Autumn has not yet arrived, so I urgently change to red leaves everywhere. These red leaves are only three or four feet high. When the wind blows over, the sand is red, and then the silver osmanthus is white, and the golden osmanthus is yellow. It is not as red as red as red leaves, so there is no osmanthus."

The emperor said leisurely: "You will enjoy it. What's the matter with this winter?" Zhao Cunzong thought about it and didn't bring the sixteenth princess back. He just said a delicacy: "White plums are blooming earlier than everywhere. The guests order plum soup cakes, which are all freshly picked white plum blossoms."

"It's snowing. You can sweep the snow and cook tea tomorrow morning." The emperor teased Zhao Cunzong, and Zhao Cunzong smiled and said, "Go back to the emperor, the plum blossoms in my house also bloomed yesterday. I plan to drink this tea at my own home."

The emperor laughed and said, "You are also frugal." Zhao Cunzong said, "This is what my father has taught me since I was a child. Every branch and leaf has a place to come and go, and a soldier and a soldier are also useful."

"Yes, King Zhongshan is a loyal minister." When the emperor said so lightly, Zhao Cunzong was immediately overjoyed and quickly knelt down to thank him: "I thank you for your kindness."

The emperor smiled slightly, and Zhao Cunzong looked happy. He has not left since he entered Beijing for two years, but King Zhongshan is repeatedly worried and always feels that the court will change. Today, Zhao Cunzong wanted to write to his father when he left the palace. The emperor was healthy and could support him for several years. He personally said that his father was a loyal minister. Zhao Cunzong had chewed it, which was indeed a compliment.

After a moment, the emperor asked with a smile, "How's the army?" Zhao Cunzong stopped and tried to make the pause not obvious. He immediately replied, "The generals in the army are all grateful to the emperor and are all heartfelt to our emperor."

The emperor smiled and said, "If anyone has two minds, you can take him to the Taihe Hall, where the spiritual throne of the first emperor is located. Shame on him." He said it kindly and added, "Did you hear it?"

Zhao Cunzong didn't understand a little, but then kowtowed back: "I wrote it down." The emperor still had a smile on his face, which made him look more rosy. He smiled and said, "Go back."

When Zhao Cunzong went out, the emperor was still thinking about the boring building and laughing. With a smile, he suddenly took the silk handkerchief on the dragon case and put it on his mouth. What he spit out was still a mouthful of blood.

facing the flying snow outside the window, the emperor said to himself, "I'm like this snow, I'm afraid that the spring will melt."

Zhao Cunzong, who came out, was puzzled and couldn't understand the following sentence of the emperor. The spiritual position of successive emperors is enshrined in the Taihe Hall. If anyone is not willing to take him there to reason? Zhao Cunzong laughed dumbly. What's the use of reasoning for unhearted people?

Until he left the palace, Zhao Cunzong didn't figure it out. The emperor is a golden mouth. Zhao Cunzong can only write down this sentence first and go home first.

As soon as the snow covered the ground, the horse's hoof stepped on a mark. I met Chu Huaixian on the road and stopped the horse head-on: "Where is the little prince going?" Zhao Cunzong remembered his own reply in the palace and said with a smile, "I came out of the palace. Oh, by the way, the emperor asked me what was interesting in Beijing. When I said count, there was only a boring building."

Chu Huaixian was stunned there: "You, make it clear?" Mr. Chu's eyes were a little cold. Zhao Cunzong read it and said, "I didn't mention the little girl. I heard that the little girl has a body again?"

This is the second person who wants Xiaochu to grow up and short after Mrs. Chu got married. Chu Huaixian is not good-hearted. Isn't Zheng Yi alone good-hearted? Prince Zhao also often asks about Xiaochu. Mr. Chu seemed to smile: "This is my ability." He said he would go with a horse.

Zhao Cunzong smiled at his distant figure again: "What is the ability to have a child? What a begator can do." Little Prince Zhao, who has three sons and one daughter, will not understand the joy of the Chu family getting Brother Yu. Little Zhao gave birth to a princess, two side concubines and a concubine. There are already a lot of children.

The snow was long for two days, and Chu Huaixian didn't come back for another night. Xiaochu couldn't calm down. He didn't ask the prince last time, but why this time? In the cold winter snow, did his arms and soft muscles elsewhere, or did his parents-in-law give him something?

When I got up in the morning and was thinking about it, Mrs. Wu came in to see her. This time, Wu Sanniangzi caught up with it. Looking back on the last pregnancy, except for a limited number of times, she has never seen it.

This time, she came not to inquire or care, but sat down and whispered, "The price of rice is expensive in this snowy day, and the Zheng family has risen again." Then regret: "We have a bumper harvest in autumn."

The Wu family is mainly engaged in the business of silk shops. They don't have boats and have many retail shops. Xiaochu smiled thoughtfully and didn't expect that Zheng Erguan could control the grain prices in Beijing.

Erguan Zheng is thinking about the boring building, and Mrs. Chu is also thinking about his business. With pregnancy, he didn't go out for a step, and he had nothing to do but calculate Zheng's second official.

"He cleaned up the business in Beijing. The Zheng family also collects cotton and hemp, and there are also antique shops, which are all kinds of." Wu Sanniangzi didn't understand Xiaochu's frequent inking about what the Zheng family was doing, but she also took the opportunity to sulk: "His shop has risen a penny this year, and we all have to follow the rise. If he says it will fall, we also have to fall. In this kind of business, we always take advantage of it."

Half of his mind is still thinking about Chu Huaixian's not returning home at night. He smiled and said, "He has to fall and others have to fall. He doesn't rise. What can he do?"

"Look at what my aunt said," Wu Sanniangzi's tongue stretched out: "My Bodhisattva, one year, the price of kapok has increased. Our family has done less in the business of kapok. The Sun family is a medium-rich family. His family has a lot of goods, so it will not rise. Do you know what happened as a result?"

Xiaochu became interested: "What's wrong?"

"The old man Zheng Er took a few people from outside Beijing to Beijing, bought a stock of the Sun family, and then sold them all at a high price in the shop, which made the Sun family half angry."

Xiaochu smiled, which is in line with the personality of Zheng Erguan.
