Chapter Thirty-Eight: Twisted Melons Are Not Sweet?
Recently, Li Yuanhao encountered a troublesome happy thing.
The cause of the matter originated from the housework of Zhou Yunyi, as the king of a country, Li Yuanhao has no obligation to meddle in the minister's housework, but recently rumors have flown up in Tai'an City, all of which are rumors about Huang Hanting Huang and the eldest lady of the Zhou family, the fire of gossip in the heart of His Majesty the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty is constantly burning, and he listened to the little palace maid and the little eunuch discussing the strange things of the pair of men and women, and his curiosity suddenly rose, and he took advantage of the few free time to sneak to the Qin Tianjian to secretly inquire about things.
And with His Majesty the Emperor to inquire about the matter, there is also Her Royal Highness the Princess of Nanliang, Chen Luoyan's identity has not been disclosed, only circulated in a few areas, the palace thinks that Chen Luoyan and Lin Yunfeng are the same, and His Majesty the Emperor is a new friend when he goes out on patrol and observes the people's feelings.
If it was like in the past, the Ministry of Officials and the Hanlin Academy would have jointly written a letter, so that His Majesty the Emperor would put the country's society first, and he could not lose his mind by playthings. However, after the ceremony of sacrificing Confucius, after Li Yuanhao revealed his hand in public, the wind evaluation of the court was surprisingly consistent, less harsh criticism of His Majesty the Emperor, more praise, His Majesty the Emperor's Wen Tao has not yet been revealed, and there have been small achievements in martial arts, the porridge of the grassland is not good, Chen Jingyan of Nanliang is not good, and Liu Zhu of Western Chu is even worse than 108,000 miles. Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor's new fox friends and dog friends, the ministers of speech and observation turned a blind eye and passed away.
The two quietly infiltrated the Qin Heavenly Prison, Li Yuanhao used all kinds of justifiable and righteous reasons to cover up the purpose of the trip, but what kind of person is Zhou Yunyi Zhou, that is the big bull who watches the stars at night and deduces numerology, from the Tang Dynasty to the Great Wei, from the first emperor Li Mocun to Li Yuanhao, two generations of emperors, more than 30 years, I haven't seen anything strange, His Majesty the Emperor fart...... Be cautious in what you say and do...... Companion is like a tiger, companion is like a tiger......
As soon as Lord Jianzheng's eyes turned, his tone began to change, and he automatically led the topic to his own family affairs, and hung His Majesty's appetite to the fullest, but he didn't break it, and every time he reached the key high-tide, he sighed and shook his head. Li Yuanhao hurriedly asked, what happened later, you are always in a hurry. Zhou Yunyi wiped his tears, just a vigorous sigh: "The little girl's life is hard, the little girl's life is hard!"
Li Yuanhao didn't ask any substantive questions, let alone exclusive secrets, scratching his ears and cheeks, anxious like ants on a hot pot. His Majesty the Emperor is very fond of knowing other people's secrets, especially the rumors released by her, which can satisfy the satisfaction of the Son of Heaven of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Yu Qing, the dog-legged man, stretched out his eldest mother's finger: "Your Majesty is amazing!"
The treacherous and cunning Lord Prison said half of the conversation, sat on the eunuch chair of the Qin Heavenly Prison, closed his eyes for three days and three nights, slowly opened his eyes, and said to himself: "The fire is coming!"
On the second day, a letter of the Qintian Prison Supervisor Zheng telling the old man to return to his hometown reached Li Yuanhao's hands, His Majesty the Emperor looked at the ink-stained recital, cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive disorder broke out at the same time, and threw it to the little eunuch: "Yu Qing, give me a thought!"
Under the teaching of Zhao Duling, the little eunuch has written a lot of words and read a lot of books in recent years, and he has a lot of murderous spirit in his pen, and he turned his head and taught the little palace maid Xuan'er, and now Xuan'er is also making rapid progress, but she still pretends to be illiterate in front of outsiders.
Open the chapter, Yu Qing read it word by word, the more Li Yuanhao listened, the more excited he became, in the chapter, Zhou Yunyi claimed to be frail and sick, sick, unable to eat, and when the little girl suddenly changed, she no longer had the face to live in Tai'an City, and the old minister was willing to return to his hometown, take care of his old age, and no longer step into Tai'an City in this life. The position of Qintian supervisor is humble and powerful, and the old ministers have seen all the ministers, but only Huang Hanting, a member of the Ministry of Labor, can hold this position.
The final end of the recital is even more sonorous and moving-the old minister should stay away now, and he doesn't know what to say.
After the little eunuch finished reading it, he groaned: "Your Majesty, there is ink on this piece, it can't be the tears of the eunuch, right?"
Li Yuanhao was so excited that he couldn't restrain himself, he knew that the old eunuch was in a tough body, and now he was returning to his hometown for no reason, he must have encountered difficulties, and then thought of the recent gossip in Tai'an City, all pointing to Huang Hanting and Zhou Piaoxue, the young lady of the Zhou family. Li Yuanhao waved his hand, and a holy decree arrived at the Zhou Mansion, and His Majesty urgently recruited Lord Zhou into the palace to face the saint.
The Zhou family was in a panic, thinking that their master had done something wrong, which caused Long Yan to be furious, and he suddenly became a mess. Master Zhou, who had just eaten a full meal and was picking his teeth and drinking tea, laughed and patted the little hand of Miss Zhou, who was nervous: "Piaoxue, your marriage is done!"
After speaking, he laughed and left, leaving Zhou Piaoxue with an inexplicable face. After entering the palace, before entering the imperial study, Lord Zhou, who had a strong pace, suddenly stopped, thinking that he would not be able to see it until tomorrow morning at the earliest, but he didn't expect His Majesty to be so anxious. Lord Zhou tilted his body, revealing a sad face, and entered the imperial study with a bowed head. Before he knelt down, Li Yuanhao had already helped Zhou Yunyi with both hands: "The boss is unwell, so there is no need to salute." ”
Zhou Yunyi wiped his eyes and squeezed out two lines of hot tears: "Your Majesty cares more, the old minister is grateful, and he can't serve His Majesty unless he does his best." ”
"The boss is serious, it's all because I neglected the boss. I was very moved, and it said that the old man was in poor health and had not eaten for many days.
"Hey, the old minister has something in his heart, he can't eat, and he hasn't eaten rice water for three whole days. ”
Li Yuanhao clapped his hands: "It's just right, I haven't eaten." Yu Qing, ordered the imperial dining room to send some food, I want to eat with Lord Zhou, by the way, let the imperial dining room add more meat dishes, the old man loves to eat. ”
Yu Qing took the order to go out, and Li Yuanhao turned his head to look at Zhou Yunyi again: "Don't worry, my lord, everything is up to you." ”
Zhou Yunyi burst into tears, grateful again, and didn't know what to say.
After a while, the food in the imperial dining room came up, and there were indeed a lot of meat dishes.
"Sir, take a seat, let's talk while we eat. Li Yuanhao stretched out his hand and motioned for Zhou Yunyi to take a seat.
Mr. Zhou, who had just eaten a piece of sauce elbow for dinner, saw the meat dishes on the table, his stomach churned, and he couldn't help but burp, but fortunately, the old man had been in the officialdom for many years, and his reaction was fast: "Let Your Majesty laugh, the old minister is so hungry that he burps." ”
"That's right, come, the old man eats a sauce elbow!" As he spoke, Li Yuanhao gave Zhou Yunyi a piece of elbow full of fat.
Zhou Yunyi wanted to cry in his heart, picked up a stone and hit his feet, sat down next to Li Yuanhao, pinched his chopsticks, picked up the fat elbow, and entered.
"Boss, is it delicious?"
The man didn't flick when he had tears, and the old man swallowed tears in his stomach, Zhou Yunyi forcibly squeezed out a bright smile: "It's delicious, it's delicious!"
"It's delicious, why is the boss still crying?" Li Yuanhao said.
Zhou Yunyi collected his tears: "Crying deliciously, crying ...... delicious"
"Okay, then eat more. ”
Another piece of pork belly went into Zhou Yunyi's bowl, and His Majesty the Emperor gave him a meal, and if he didn't eat it, he would be killed.
Zhou Yunyi not only wanted to cry at this moment, but also wanted to die.
Li Yuanhao drank a bowl of millet porridge, there was food in her stomach, and she began to get to the point, she opened her mouth and asked: "The old man told the old man to return to his hometown, but it has something to do with Miss Zhou?"
Zhou Yunyi sighed faintly: "The ugliness of the family should not be publicized, since Your Majesty asked, the old minister was blunt, it is indeed related to the little girl, I think Your Majesty has already heard that the little girl and Huang Hanting already have a husband and wife, but Huang Hanting insisted on refusing to marry the little girl, a woman lost her body, and she couldn't get a name, it was better to let her die." Lao Chen knew that the twisted melon was not sweet, and he didn't want to be that wicked person, Tai'an City couldn't stay anymore, so it was better to go back to his hometown to be quiet. ”
Li Yuanhao sighed: "Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, but why did the boss recommend Huang Hanting to serve as the supervisor of Qintian?"
Zhou Yunyi opened his mouth and said: "The affairs of the old minister and the little girl are private affairs, and the affairs of the Qin Tianjian are public affairs, although Huang Hanting took the body of the little girl, but the old minister knows the severity and cannot abolish the public because of personal interests, Huang Hanting is indeed very suitable for the position of the chief supervisor of the Qin Tiantian." ”
"The boss is clear and upright, which makes me very moved, Miss Zhou's affairs, I am in charge!" Li Yuanhao said with an oath.
"The old minister thanked His Majesty, but the twisted melon is not ......sweet," Zhou Yunyi put down the dishes and chopsticks and said worriedly.
"Isn't the twisted melon sweet? Hmph, I prefer to eat melons, what else can he Huang Hanting, I will decree that the two of them get married!" Li Yuanhao snorted coldly, and said domineeringly, looking at the posture, Huang Hanting was facing each other, and she was going to graft this gourd onto the body of Miss Zhou, and when she turned her head, His Majesty the Emperor said with concern: "Boss, don't put down the dishes and chopsticks, eat quickly." ”
A piece of meat was put into the old man's bowl.
When Zhou Yunyi left the palace, he was helped out by two little eunuchs, climbed into the carriage with his waist propped up, and advised: "Drive slowly, you must be slow." ”
Back at Zhou's mansion, the family hurriedly ran out, Zhou Piaoxue saw Zhou Yunyi who was faltering, and hurriedly asked, "Dad, did Your Majesty beat you?"
Zhou Yunyi took a breath: "Your Majesty didn't beat your father, Piaoxue, your father is for you, but he has given up his old life, your marriage with Huang Hanting is done, just wait for the holy decree at home." ”
Zhou Piaoxue's face was overjoyed: "Really, Dad, thank you, Dad, I'll make your favorite sauce elbow for my dad tomorrow!"
"Vomit...... Vomit...... ...... vomit" Zhou Yunyi held on to the trees in the hospital with one hand and vomited.
"Dad, Dad, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Piaoxue hurriedly patted Lord Zhou's back: "Since you don't want to eat sauce elbows, how about the pork belly, or the pork belly?"
"Vomit...... Vomit...... ...... vomit"
Li Yuanhao returned to the Qianqing Palace, and was so happy that he slammed Chen Luoyan out of the door: "I'm tired, I want to sleep, don't come in!"
Chen Luoyan touched the tip of her nose that was touched: "I met something good, I am so happy, I don't know how to say it, everyone is happy." ”
Yu Qing told Chen Luoyan what happened in the imperial study, and Princess Nanliang patted her thigh and laughed: "Zhou Yunyi was calculated by your master. ”
"Your Majesty calculates Lord Zhou?" Yu Qing was puzzled.
"Hey, you underestimate your master, she knows better than anyone else, and her little abacus knows better than anyone else. You know that your master is nosy, especially about karma and bridging the red line, and she is very happy to do it. At the beginning, your master wanted to meddle in other people's housework, so he deliberately went to Qin Tianjian and let Zhou Yunyi take the bait, and sure enough, Lord Zhou obediently took the bait, and the fart was turned upside down. Now your master, with Zhou Yunyi's tearful recital in his hand, Huang Hanting has gone too far, as the king of a country, His Majesty the Emperor is finally able to meddle in this matter justifiably, and there is no need to fall into the mouth, it will only be praised by the people of the world, His Majesty the Son of Heaven of our Great Wei State, considerate minister, slightly unknown, is really a generation of Ming Jun. Chen Luoyan said, shaking her head and returning to Xinuan Pavilion.
Only Yu Qing, the little eunuch with a veiled face, turned out to have such a deep Tao, Your Majesty is really "old and cunning".
The next day, Li Yuanhao licked his lips and prepared the holy decree, and sent it in the name of the harem, not long after, a carriage drove into the palace, Zhou Piaoxue jumped out of the carriage, just in time to catch up with the officials of the Ministry of Industry to rest, and went out of the Ministry of Industry together, Huang Hanting was mixed in, and it happened that the holy decree came to the Ministry of Industry, and in front of all colleagues, let Huang Hanting and Zhou Piaoxue go to the imperial study hand in hand to face the saint.
Huang Hanting took the holy decree, and Zhou Piaoxue pounced on it, grabbed his Han Ting's arm, causing everyone to whisper, point, and laugh constantly.
"Miss Zhou, men and women are not kissed, and they must not be so rude in public. Huang Hanting said.
Zhou Piaoxue had an aggrieved look on her face, let go of her arm, and stood aside to drink.
Yu Qing lightly lowered his voice: "Lord Huang, Your Majesty said that you are holding hands with the saint, that is, holding hands, could it be that you want to resist the decree?"
"Weichen doesn't dare!" Huang Hanting said.
Zhou Piaoxue suddenly grabbed Huang Hanting's hand, and her heart was happy, but Huang Hanting was uncomfortable, as if there were 10,000 ants crawling all over her body.
The two of them walked towards the imperial study under the gaze of everyone.
Entering the imperial study, Li Yuanhao was reviewing the recital, and when he noticed that the two had arrived, he didn't raise his head: "Miss Zhou, don't kneel, come here, give Miss Huang a seat!"
A little eunuch brought a stool, and Zhou Piaoxue said a thousand blessings: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" sat down shallowly.
Miss Zhou didn't have to kneel, Huang Hanting still needed to kneel, and said long live, and there was no follow-up. The emperor did not speak, and Huang Hanting could only continue to kneel on the ground.
Li Yuanhao kept in his hands, and continued to review the chapters, as if he didn't see the two of them.
