Chapter 51: "Adding Blockage"
Kaoru Tai just watched Ye Chi plant his face to the ground in front of her, this action was so sudden that even her reflex nerves couldn't keep up, and she was stunned for a while before stepping forward to help him up.
"You...... Are you alright?"
They were only a few steps apart, and Ye Chi's toes happened to step on a stone, and he planted it like this. Kaoru felt a little distressed and a little funny, and couldn't help asking, "Did you fall somewhere?"
Although there were not many people on this road, they were not so biased, and the few who passed by stopped and looked at Ye Chi lying on the ground in amazement, forgetting where he was going for a while.
“…… It's okay. ”
Ye Chi's hand was on her arm, Kaoru Tai's pretty face was in front of him, his fair skin was like congealed fat, he looked away a little uncomfortably, and accidentally stepped on the other with one foot, and as a result, the whole person pulled Kaoru Tai and sat down.
“……”
Kaoru Tai knew that he was not suitable for martial arts, but he really didn't expect him to fall a second time, and he was almost pressed against him, but fortunately, she didn't lie down with one arm behind her, but her body suddenly stiffened.
She looked down at the hand that was on her chest.
Ye Chi fell for the second time at this time, only to feel that he had touched something soft on his hand, and before he could react, he was pulled out by an oncoming slap.
“……!”
This time, he really lay on the ground and didn't move.
Kaoru Tandai is almost reflexive, she has been practicing martial arts for many years, and her actions against sudden attacks are also very direct. Her mind went blank for a moment under nervousness, and she stood up suddenly, and handed the letter in her hand to Ye Chi: "This is...... I will leave you first. ”
Ye Chi sat on the ground for a while, looked at his palms in a daze, and quickly reacted to what had just happened, covering his mouth and blushing.
He raised his head and looked around, and several onlookers immediately ran away, even Princess Jinshu rubbed her eyebrows, and said goodbye with some discomfort, only the little emperor was still watching patiently from behind, and sighed grimly.
If this is really a problem, how much will I suffer!
He firmly believed that Ye Chi was not as perverted as rumored outside, and must have just been stimulated by something in Qinzhou.
Now that the source of the stimulus has been found, he has his own way to solve the problem.
***
After the little emperor returned to the palace, he began to ponder the strategy of bringing the Tai Kaoru back to the place, but he did not dare to discuss it with King Lian; it was very simple to demote someone who was the emperor, but others did not recruit him or provoke him, and this person was promoted by him before, so it was not so easy to do.
So he pondered for a night, preparing to see Kaoru Tai first, maybe the other party said something offensive to him, and he could send the person back to Linzhou logically.
The next day, the little emperor ordered the eunuch to summon people early in the morning, in line with the principle of rather demolishing a temple than destroying a marriage, his original plan was only to talk to Kaoru Tai, as long as this girl no longer bullied the minister he valued the most, things were not without room for negotiation.
The eunuch who went to do the errand knew that the little emperor did not want to see the new imperial historian, and understood his meaning differently, and felt that letting the emperor add blockage was to let them add blockage, so he decided to let his little eunuch go to block the new Yutai Kaoru.
The eunuchs of the country have a lot of power, but the reason why they are eunuchs is because their IQ is not high, and they feel that the emperor has spoken, although they don't have to worry about anything else, anyway, it is just a small imperial history, so they carried a few buckets of paint to the place where Kaoru passed by every day and ambushed them.
When Kaoru Tai brought people back to the Yushitai, the little emperor didn't know what had happened, and wondered why people hadn't come until now.
When King Lian walked into the imperial study with a straight face, the little emperor immediately sat up straight. He is young, the emperor of a few years is not in vain, he is very good at observing words and feelings, but even if he is not good, he can see that the emperor's uncle is angry.
King Lian didn't say anything, just sat beside him and sighed, and then said after a long time: "Your Majesty usually has no harm in being playful, but isn't it too much to instruct the eunuch to make things difficult for the courtiers?"
The little emperor heard it in a fog, but soon understood what was going on, and ordered someone to beat the eunuch that day, and then did not dare to mention it again for a long time.
Of course, this result was passed on to Kaoru Tai, but she didn't know about the little emperor, and only thought that someone wanted to give her a dismissal when the new official took office, but as one of the imperial histories, this is also easy to understand.
Most of the Imperial Observatory is clerical work, mainly to receive reports and supervise officials, and there are a few people at the same time as her, one is a newcomer and the other is a low position, except for having nothing to do to write an impeachment seal, most of the time it is not particularly busy.
All in all, the management is very unified, and it is completely impossible to be as big as it is at the local level.
There were a total of four people in the office of Kaoru Yutai, three of whom were newcomers, and the remaining one was in his fifties, sitting opposite her, named Hong Yang.
It's a pity that this person lived up to this name, and the biggest achievement in his life was to write an impeachment chapter to scold the prime minister, of course, it was not Ye Chi who was scolded, but Ye Chi's previous term.
The old prime minister was about the same age as the first emperor, and after relying on the family relationship and being dizzy, he still held on to his official position, and he also listened to slander and promoted some pests who could not eat but could not move, but only spoke sweeter than honey. Hong Yang was also idle and bored at that time, what to do when he was bored, impeach, anyway, many people in front of him proposed to remove the prime minister, and they didn't care about an impeachment stamp for him.
I don't know if it's because this impeachment seal is too well written or because he has gone out of his shit luck, King Lian specially took out this impeachment seal and read it in front of the first emperor, and the first emperor finally decided that he couldn't drag it out any longer, and he dismissed him on the same day.
Since then, Hong Yang's impeachment chapter has become famous, and he thought that he had finally waited for the opportunity to be promoted, but the first emperor just said "oh" without pain, and the matter of promotion was over.
Such people are often more sensitive and persistent to official ranks, and it turns out that this is also the case, after Kaoru Tai finished the things Xu Zhihuan arranged for her, she looked up and found that Hong Yang was looking at her from the other side, so she asked coldly: "Is there something wrong?"
Hong Yang shrugged and said, "This is what Xu Zhongcheng handed you over?"
"Yes. ”
"Did you know each other before?"
"I've met. ”
Hong Yang felt a little boring, people in the officialdom like to bend around, but this girl always speaks very directly, directly to the point of being a little boring, and she is from the place, not those new Jinshi, so she is not so easy to fool.
"Oh...... If you don't understand something, you can ask the old man. ”
Kaoru Tantai thanked him and packed his things to find Xu Zhihuan, walked two steps and heard someone follow, and when he looked back, he realized that it was a young girl sitting diagonally opposite her, who had entered the Yushitai a few days earlier than her, walked over with a smile, and pointed to the paperwork in her hand: "Lord Tantai, these things...... Can you let me deliver it?"
This girl is a few years older than her, and she smiles when she talks to anyone, but she doesn't know the details. Promotion in the Imperial Observatory is not decided by the chief, so it makes little sense to curry favor with Xu Zhihuan. Kaoru didn't understand very much, but it just saved her a trip, so she handed over the paperwork and said, "Then I'm bothering you." ”
"No, no, no, it's me who thank you. The girl took her things in her arms and went away happily.
Winter is basically coming, although the climate is not so cold, but it gets dark earlier and earlier, after finishing work, Kaoru went out for a meal, who knew that suddenly there was a light rain, but fortunately it stopped soon.
In addition to being punctual in response to the fact that officials in Beijing must be punctual, as long as they do not leave their posts without permission, there are no particularly hard requirements for when to leave, and there is no need to bother people to go to the yamen to cry at night.
Previously, Yuan Ziling sent a letter to let her settle in Yuan's house, but after thinking about it, she still refused, and rented a room on a quieter street, except that the price was a little more expensive, it was no different from her previous life.
When she went home that day, she saw a person sitting at the door, thinking that the neighbor had gone to the wrong door, and when she got closer, she realized that it was Ye Chi sitting outside waiting for her, and after seeing her, she smiled and said, "Kaoru, you're back." ”
He sat here looking strangely pitiful, and if he hadn't paid attention to that dress, absolutely no one would have thought that he was one of the important ministers of the court.
Kaoru Tantai asked silently, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"
Ye Chi shook his head: "I just came here not long ago. ”
She opened the door silently, and glanced down at the place where he had sat on the floor, much drier than the surroundings, presumably before dinner.
Ye Chi didn't notice what she was thinking, and asked a little nervously, "Aren't you hurt?"
Knowing that he was referring to those eunuchs, Kaoru shrugged and said, "No." After I restrained one of them, the other escaped and fell into the paint bucket. ”
“……”
Ye Chi saw that she was serious, and suddenly remembered that she was slapped by her last time she fell. It's good for girls to have a sense of protecting themselves, but Kaoru Yutai is obviously the type that goes too far.
If you want to get married in the future...... It's a nuisance.
The house rented by Kaoru Yutai was not big, but it was enough for one person, she knew that Ye Chi ran over without eating, but there were only a few things she could do, so Ye Chi naturally took the rice spoon and smiled: "I'll come." ”
Kaoru nodded and just sat down and stared at him, not knowing what he was thinking.
Ye Chi walked around the room with a spoon in his belt, and when he was busy, there were still a little beads of sweat on his forehead, and his handsome and good-looking face was so focused.
She suddenly walked over and hugged him.
“……!”
Ye Chi was taken aback by this sudden attack, because he was hugged from behind, he couldn't see Kaoru Tandai's expression, he could only look down and see her slender hands around his waist, hugging him hard as before.
Like a dream.
"I don't think I'm good for you at all. ”
Ye Chi didn't expect her to say this suddenly, she is not such a sentimental person, she probably heard some gossip outside, such as what Ye Xiang was tied up at home and dripping candles or something.
He gently took Kaoru Tandai's hand, turned to stare at her, and smiled, "Do you like me?"
Kaoru Tandai nodded.
"That's fine, you can learn how to be nice to me in the future. ”
Ye Chi put his hand on her head and rubbed her forehead after speaking. Kaoru Tantai doesn't know how to treat people well, it doesn't matter, he has time and can get along slowly.
He pecked her lightly on the forehead, but this time Kaoru didn't subconsciously hide back, closed his eyes and sniffed something, and suddenly said, "It's mush." ”
Ye Chi was shocked, and hurriedly took out the dishes in the pot, although the top was fine, but the bottom was already burnt, and it should not be edible like this. He sighed, simply boiled another pot of water, and said regretfully, "Let's go down." ”
This is what Kaoru Tantai would do, and after being busy with him for a while, he quickly served two bowls of noodles, steaming hot. Although she had eaten before, it was made by Ye Chi herself, and she had to finish it no matter how she said it, but she covered half of her face a little uncomfortably before she took two bites.
Ye Chi asked, "Isn't it delicious?"
Kaoru Tantai shook her head, still covering her face, "It's uncomfortable, it's been a few days." ”
Ye Chi pondered that she had a tooth problem, because Kaoru Tai likes to eat dim sum, although her living habits are very good, dim sum is still dim sum, which is not good for her teeth.
"Open your mouth for me to see. ”
She obediently opened her mouth.
Ye Chi leaned over to take a closer look, and suddenly couldn't help but laugh. Kaoru Tantai immediately closed her lips and continued to cover her face and said, "Is there something wrong?"
Ye Chi was silent for a moment.
"Wisdom teeth. ”
