Chapter 238: An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth

"What do you mean by that?" Madame Hua obviously didn't understand what her husband meant, and her face showed a little suspicion. It's just that the room is relatively dim, and Hua Baishi naturally didn't see it.

He stroked his beard, walked to the bed step by step, and said gently: "You are not one of those people who don't understand the amorous feelings, I mean, you should understand." ”

Mrs. Hua was still puzzled, but when she saw Hua Baishi's face, she seemed to understand something in an instant, and when she started the fire, she pulled up the embroidered pillow on the bed and threw it towards Hua Baishi's face.

Hua Baishi never expected that he would be suddenly attacked by his daughter-in-law, and it was too late to dodge at this time, leaving him only time to close his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the embroidered pillow came as scheduled and smashed on Hua Baishi's head. But fortunately, this pillow is not hard, and Mrs. Hua has no strength, so Hua Baishi only screamed in pain and did not cause any substantial damage.

But unfortunately, Mrs. Hua's anger has not subsided. I only heard her angry scolding, and said: "You old immortal, what do you want to do, you are so old, be honest with your mother." ”

Hua Baishi sniffed and kept rubbing his forehead with his hand, what was the situation? He didn't react for a while, and froze in place. It can't be helped, that's the case with the tigress at home. Don't look at it in the eyes of outsiders, he has a virtuous lady, but only he knows how.

I think that at the beginning, he was also a first-class young talent in Beiliang City, and how many beauties secretly sent him to Qiubo. But he didn't know why, so he fell in love with Mrs. Hua, and then he was out of control. He remembered that when he first got married, the other party didn't have such a big temper, but now what's wrong? He shouldn't have agreed to this marriage in the first place, and now he regrets it endlessly!

He stood still, shook his head helplessly, and explained, "Madam, listen to me, did you misunderstand something?"

"What is the misunderstanding? You old pervert, I won't kill you today. ”

Hua Baishi wants to cry, this is true. He hurriedly waved his hand and said to his wife: "Madam, I mean to let Huahua give birth to a big fat boy as soon as possible, so that we can pin our hopes on him." ”

Madame Hua was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then, her face turned red in the dark, and she immediately returned to the state of a bird. "Go to bed, it's getting late. With that, he lay down on the bed first.

Hua Baishi held the pillow in his hand, still thinking about what Mrs. Hua just said, what did he mean? Why couldn't he understand it?

In the warm pavilion of the palace, His Majesty the Emperor was playing in Zhu Criticism, and suddenly heard the voice of Father-in-law Qi outside the door: "Your Majesty, Wang Chaopeng, the secretary of the military department, has something important to meet." ”

Originally, Gonggong Qi, as the Gonggong of Dongchang and the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi, did not need to start His Majesty in person. In the middle of the night, if there is a minister to see him, there will be no good thing. If you follow the character of Father-in-law Qi in the past, he would definitely hide far away, and then stay in the room in a chic manner.

As the number one eunuch in the palace, he is a celebrity around His Majesty the Emperor, and there are naturally many people who serve him. In the evening, there will always be a group of so-called godsons to help him beat his legs and pinch his shoulders. Then he himself, drinking tea, casually taught these godsons a few lessons

Sentence, this little day is definitely good.

But unfortunately, on the way back to the room today, Father-in-law Qi happened to meet Wang Chaopeng, the secretary of the military department. If it's okay for someone else, Grandpa Qi can still find a reason to prevaricate. But for a big old man like Wang Chaopeng, who does it without saying a word, he can only do it. So, there was this scene of him playing His Majesty.

As for His Majesty the Emperor, he was already dozing off, and he didn't even know what he had written on the fold later.

Hearing the movement outside, His Majesty the Emperor was excited, immediately refreshed, straightened his hair, and said, "Come in." ”

After finishing speaking, Father-in-law Qi led Wang Chaopeng into the warm pavilion. His Majesty the Emperor liked this warm pavilion, and before it was winter, he would definitely come here and start hibernation like a brown bear. The so-called deep and simple living is actually just staying in the house to raise fat. The reason is actually very simple, without him, it is warm in the warm pavilion.

"What's the matter?" Before Wang Chaopeng could salute, His Majesty the Emperor opened his mouth to ask. Since there are no outsiders, he naturally doesn't have to be too restrained.

Wang Chaopeng's face was full of anxiety, he trotted all the way, and he was still snorting and panting at this time. I only heard him gasp and say to His Majesty: "Your Majesty, there is a flash report from the border that the second prince is missing." ”

"What?" His Majesty the Emperor's hand gripped the dragon chair sharply, "Present it to me." ”

Father-in-law Qi didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately took the express in Wang Chaopeng's hand and sent it up.

His Majesty the Emperor took it, and as soon as he opened it, he felt that his body was suddenly struck by lightning. He read the whole bulletin slowly, pondered for a while, and then said solemnly: "According to this bulletin, it was already three days ago?"

Wang Chaopeng nodded helplessly, although he didn't want to admit it, but it was too far away, and it was not slow to pass the news back and forth. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to enter the palace in a hurry at night.

"Quick, summon the cabinet, and the six Shang Shushilang, all of them are imperial history, come to see me immediately. "His Majesty the Emperor does not hesitate any longer, time is extremely precious at this moment.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid at this time. "Father-in-law Qi is a little embarrassed, after all, the cabinet ministers in the middle of the night have all been dismissed, and if you want to find them, you have to go to the mansions to find them.

His Majesty the Emperor glared at Gonggong Qi and said viciously, "Do you want to resist the decree?"

When Gonggong Qi heard this, he was immediately frightened and his legs weakened, he knelt on the ground, buckled his head and said, "The slave is dead." ”

"Why don't you go soon if you know that you will die?" His Majesty the Emperor was obviously angry, and even the tone of his speech changed, and he saw that Wang Chaopeng on the side took pity on Father-in-law Qi.

In the middle of the night, there was a knock on the door of a family minister. Then, the ministers were squeezed into the carriage in a huff. Then, they were sent to the palace.

And when they arrived at the gate of the palace, they still needed to get out of the carriage, if nothing else, because it was forbidden to drive in the palace. Naturally, His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress were casual.

So, under the leadership of Gonggong Qi and other officials, a group of ministers rushed in the palace non-stop. Among them, few of them wore official uniforms, because most of them were carried and taken away directly in their sleep. There are one or two ministers who don't even have their shoes on,

Holding his shoes in one hand and his waist in the other, he shouted the strongest: "Wait for the old man, you guys run slower!"

After a while, many ministers arrived outside the warm pavilion. They all stood neatly, and then followed Gonggong Qi into the main hall.

At this time, His Majesty the Emperor had already remembered the turnaround and kept pacing with his hands behind his back. Wang Chaopeng didn't dare to persuade him, after all, he was a military minister, and he was afraid that His Majesty the Emperor would listen to his words and even more unable to think about it.

His Majesty the Emperor is worried about the second prince, but it is not unreasonable. First, it is because the second prince is his biological bloodline, and once he goes wrong, it means that if he goes to a child; second, the second prince disappeared after going to Nanyao, which means that Nanyao is about to be lonely and want to send troops to start a war; as for the third, only His Majesty the Emperor and Huang Daxian know, that is, in the hands of the second prince, with their Beiliang's divine weapon, the sword with the sound of the dragon's roar.

"See Your Majesty. "The ministers bowed down.

His Majesty the Emperor naturally disdained these false courtesies, only raised his hand, and said, "Flat." ”

The first to ask was Prime Minister Li Weiguang, who stepped forward, as a cabinet minister, he should be the first to speak on such a major matter. "Your Majesty, I don't know what is the matter with summoning the ministers and others at this time?"

"Let's do it. His Majesty the Emperor only hooked the express newspaper in his hand, and said to Gonggong Qi on the side. The reason why Father-in-law Qi is also to give enough face, after all, the office sounds much better than the so-called father-in-law.

When Gonggong Qi heard the order, he handed the express report to Prime Minister Li Weiguang, and then passed it on to the ministers one after another. In fact, there are not many of these ministers in total, and they have just passed the three-handed number. But these ministers are already able to decide a lot of important things.

After all, the rules of the imperial court are like this, and major matters are decided by a few people. Only the really trivial things will be overwhelmed and fought over in the court, and they will never die.

"What do you think of this matter?" Seeing that everyone had finished reading the express report, His Majesty the Emperor couldn't wait to ask.

But I didn't want to, His Majesty the Emperor's enthusiasm was poured cold water. No one answered, and there was silence in the warm pavilion.

His Majesty the Emperor looked at the dress of the ministers in front of him, and he was obviously pulled up directly from the bed. Although he couldn't bear it in his heart, he still sighed and said, "Could it be that Aiqing didn't have a single suggestion?"

is still silent, as if this has become a tacit understanding between many old ministers, as long as His Majesty does not ask a single person, they will not speak.

His Majesty the Emperor has long been accustomed to these old foxes. Helpless, he had to lower his demeanor again, and then asked: "Li Qingjia, you are my humerus, what do you think of this matter?"

Li Weiguang knew that he would not be able to escape, and sooner or later he would have to be stabbed. So he said in a deep voice: "According to the old minister, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry yet. ”

"Oh?" His Majesty the Emperor raised his eyebrows, puzzled by Li Weiguang's remarks. So, he asked, "What does the Qing family mean?"

Li Weiguang smiled and threw out a sentence lightly, "Your Majesty, don't forget, the southerner prince Zhu Jian is still in the Honglu Temple." ”

As soon as these words came out, His Majesty the Emperor also understood what Li Weiguang meant, an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.
