Chapter 42: Who's the Male Favorite
Soon after Bai Qingyun left, Xiao Chengan arrived.
Yan Dexi pulled his old voice and roared with full momentum: "The emperor has arrived-"
After that, the hundred officials knelt on the ground to pay respects.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
After Xiao Chengan walked up to the upper seat and sat down, he raised his right hand and said, "Zhong Aiqing is flat." ”
Everyone sat down in their seats, but Bai Qingyun's position was empty.
Bai Qiaoshui glanced up at the upper seat, and Xiao Chengan was holding an off-the-shoulder goose-yellow clothed beauty in his arms.
Xiao Chengan looked at Yan Dexi, who was standing behind him, and asked, "If I remember correctly, that position should be Bai Qingyun's, right?" ”
Yan Dexi's face was a little hesitant, but because it was the emperor who asked him, he replied "yes".
Xiao Chengan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes were full of unhappiness.
"Yan Dexi, go and 'invite' Bai Qingyun to me to come into the palace, I still haven't shown him any good things."
"Yes, the minions obey."
After speaking, Yan Dexi was about to withdraw.
Bai Qiaoshui immediately sensed that Xiao Chengan intended to target the old man of her family, and he was a little anxious.
"Father-in-law Yan, wait." Xiao Yan stood up suddenly, glanced at Yan Dexi, turned to look at Xiao Cheng'an, and saluted.
"Father, the princess is unwell, General Bai is too sad, and the son persuaded General Bai to go back."
"Before leaving, he also instructed his son to bring his father's birthday blessing to his father."
After speaking, he turned around and muttered a few words to Cheng Shu, who was standing behind him.
Then Cheng Shu left the Qinzheng Palace.
"Father, General Bai has something to give to his father, and he specially asked his sons to hand it over."
As soon as the words fell, Cheng Shu carried a wooden box to the palace.
Presenting the things with both hands, Yan Dexi took the wooden box, opened the lid, and presented it to the old emperor.
"Father, this is the Tianshan jade on Penglai Island, made of jade pendants and other things to wear, it has the effect of prolonging life, Penglai Island is difficult to enter and exit, and General Bai is also bothered to find this jade."
Penglai Island? Tianshan jade?
Bai Qiaoshui looked up at the contents of the wooden box, I don't know if it was man-made or for some reason, the stone showed the appearance of an auspicious cloud, with a little green cold light on it.
Sure enough, it was jade from Penglai Island.
Moreover, she remembered that this piece of jade was brought out by Ye Jingliang at the beginning.
As long as anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the prince who took out the congratulatory gift he prepared to help Bai Qingyun round the field.
But how did the prince get this jade?
Bai Xiaoshui was a little puzzled by this, but his face did not show the slightest hint.
"Your Majesty, this piece of jade looks very auspicious, and the color is also high-grade jade."
It was, a soft female voice rang out.
Everyone looked at the person who made the voice, who was being held in the arms of the old emperor.
"Since Concubine Ai likes this piece of jade so much, how about I send it to Concubine Ai's Qilian Palace?"
"Thank you for the reward."
Looking from the direction of Bai Qianshui, there was only one back, and Bai Wanshui frowned, but the tone of this speech was so familiar.
Like ...... Her mother is the same!
By the way, her mother, who has been dead for a long time, speaks in the same tone, never saying a heavy word.
Her mother has been dead for a long, long time.
However, who is this person in Xiao Chengan's arms?
Bai Xiaoshui glanced at Xiao Yan and found that the latter was looking at the back of Xiao Cheng'an's favorite concubine with a smile on his face, as if he had discovered something interesting.
Xiao Yu got up and sat down after congratulating his birthday according to the procedure.
Someone stabbed Bai Weakwater with a hand crutch.
Bai Qiaoshui turned his head to look at Qi Jue.
Qi Jue leaned closer to her ear and lowered his voice and said, "I'll seize the opportunity later." ”
As soon as Bai Wanshui nodded, Qi Jue stood up.
"Weichen congratulates my emperor on his longevity than Nanshan."
As he spoke, Bai Qiaoshui got up and walked over and presented the congratulatory gift prepared by Qi Jue.
After Yan Dexi took it, Bai Qiaoshui raised his head slightly to look at the upper seat.
His eyes widened, and this man ......
Rumors say that this man resembles her aunt, but now it seems that why does she think this person is more like her mother?
Bai Qiaoshui retracted his gaze and saluted Xiao Chengan: "I wish my emperor benevolence and virtue are boundless." ”
As soon as this greeting was uttered, the crowd began to whisper.
Benevolence without borders?
"This kid said that benevolence and virtue are boundless, did I hear me right?"
"Yes, yes, benevolence knows no bounds."
"This kid is so scared that he can't jump out of a greeting."
"I guess so."
"Looking at his little white face, you know that you haven't seen anything in the world, it's really straw."
"Champion Lang brought this kid here, this kid won't be a male pet raised by Champion Lang, right? He looks really handsome. ”
This voice was Shen alienated.
"Lord Shen, you can't have any thoughts again, do you?"
……
Male pet ...... The corners of Bai Qiaoshui's mouth twitched secretly, this adult's imagination is really rich, if you really want to talk about male pets, it is not certain who is who.
"You are?"
"Caomin is the new master of Qianyilou, and he specially entered the palace today to congratulate the emperor on his birthday." In a word, it is neither humble nor arrogant.
"Qianyi Building? Isn't it just ......"
"The mysterious new lord?"
"It's really a man, and he's so handsome."
It was Shen's alienated voice again.
"Lord Shen, shouldn't you really ......?"
"Lord Wang laughed, everyone has a master, how can I go and intervene."
……
Bai Qiaoshui gave Shen Alienation a roll of his eyes.
Xiao Cheng'an, who was seated, looked at Bai Xiaoshui for a long time before saying, "Qianyilou really has a heart." ”
At this time, Xiao Yu, who was sitting next to him without saying a word, suddenly spoke: "Since the Lord of Qianyilou has come to congratulate the emperor on his birthday, how can he say the wrong congratulatory message and have not prepared a congratulatory gift?" ”
Bai Qiaoshui didn't turn to look at him, although he wore a mask, he was still afraid of being recognized.
Directly facing the old emperor.
Xiao Chengan also looked at her with a very curious expression.
Bai Qiaoshui was calm and calm, and said: "The grass people did not say the wrong congratulatory words, benevolence and virtue are not only the wishes of the grass people to the emperor, but also the hope of the people of the world at dawn to the emperor." ”
"The people who live at the bottom still need to work day and night to barely feed the big family."
"Bold! The princess's father's Dayan is now prosperous and peaceful, where can you talk about it like this! ”
Before the old emperor could speak, a woman dressed in a water-red wide-sleeved dance dress ran in from outside the hall.
"The princess is here."
"Tsk, now this lord has to bear it."
"Princess Changping is so powerful?"
Shen Shuli asked quietly, and everyone who heard it glanced at him, nodded in unison, silently, and watched as onlookers.
Bai Qiaoshui is still calm: "The princess has been raised in the deep palace since she was a child, of course she doesn't know the sufferings of the people, if the princess and the grass people go out for a day or two, you will be able to experience it." ”
Xiao Chengan glanced at Xiao Ruyi and ignored him, the only daughter.
Bai Xiaoshui was a little surprised like this, could it be that the family affection in this palace wall was so indifferent?
"Please continue."
The old emperor didn't mean to be angry at all.
"Yes." Bai Wanshui paused for a moment and continued, "Let's not talk about the far, let's talk about the near, the bandits in Fengming Mountain on the outskirts of the city have come out repeatedly, but no one has been governing them for a long time. ”
"The people passing by were robbed of countless belongings, and only then did Lord Qi arrest the thieves."
"Speaking of the waterlogging in Liangzhou, after the imperial court allocated funds to exploit it layer by layer, very little really went to the hands of the people."
"The shelter can't even afford a shelter from the cold, the old man is abandoned, and at that time, the emperor is so happy with your beauty in his arms!"
"Your Majesty, do you still think you don't need this benevolence?"
The ministers looked at each other, and for a moment everything was silent.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"
"Your Majesty, the grass people are true, even if they kill the ministers, they can't change the fact that the world has not really prospered and peaceful."
"Yes, very good! Someone came, this person spoke disrespectfully, despised the emperor's authority, dragged me out to hit thirty boards, and threw him out of the palace. ”
Guards immediately came forward outside the hall, and Xiao Yu got up unhurriedly and made a salute.
"Your Majesty, in fact, the minister thinks that what this Lord of Qianyilou said is all true, the world is the world of the Ming monarch."
"If the emperor hurts someone who dares to speak out today, then who will dare to point out these bad roots for the emperor in the future?"
"It was because Tang Taizong was good at accepting advice that he had the famous Zhenguan rule in history."
"The minister asks the emperor to revoke the punishment of the lord of Qianyilou and replace it with a reward."
"King Su, you!"
"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal."
"The minister also seconded the proposal."
"Seconded."
……
Bai Qiaoshui listened to the word "second" one after another, and suddenly felt that Xiao Yu's support team in the court was really huge.
Sure enough, it was the person who occupied most of the hearts of the people, and one paragraph attracted so many ministers to second.
"You people, this is going to be the opposite!"
"Father, please calm your anger." Xiao Yan, who was originally going to watch a good show, suddenly stood up.
"Father, son-in-law also thinks that the father should not spoil a concubine too much and not pay attention to the people's livelihood."
Hmm, this sentence is really awkward, Xiao Yan said this to put the responsibility of the old emperor who didn't care about the people, and put it all on the beauty of the Western Regions.
This poured down the steps of the old emperor.
The old emperor glared at Bai Qiaoshui, reluctantly let go of the beauty in his arms, and motioned for her to sit next to her.
"I am also a sensible person, I just listened to your advice, I feel that I am not worthy of being a monarch, from today onwards, I will definitely observe the people's feelings more and be a generation of wise monarchs."
"The lord of Qianyi Lou has meritorious advice, and the special seal is the imperial history of the four products, ten horses of brocade, and a thousand taels of silver."
Silver...... A thousand taels, such a big temptation.
"Lord Ye Venerable, why don't you thank Lord Longen?"
When Xiao Yu reminded her, she reacted.
But she didn't think about entering this mixed officialdom, did she take it or not?
Before she could finish thinking, something hit her calf, and in an instant, the whole person fell to her knees.
Just kowtowed.
"Your Majesty, Lord Ye is so moved that he can't speak."
Touched by Mao, she is now "moved" so much that she wants to cry.
Well, now she doesn't have to think about it.
Isn't it just to be an official, isn't it just a speech official with a low rank but a very high political status?
What's so hard about this!
Isn't it just talking, offending and offending people, and then fighting with the old emperor, making mistakes, simple!
