Chapter Ninety-Three: Foreign Envoys Enter Beijing 4
It's easy to get an erection, but it's hard to last! It's hard to say whether it's soft or hard! This is just right for the brothers of the Chen family of the royal family and the ministers present!
As the king of a country, no matter what he does, he must have an excuse or excuse after all, and the brothers have maintained the same caliber in the imperial study. Under the obvious sight of Hou Jianbin and Zuo Chen, although it is secretive, it is a fact.
Prince Qing is now hardened, and he doesn't cooperate with the emperor at all, if it weren't for Pan Xiang's relief, the emperor would really end up decently, and it would not be very easy!
are all old oilmen who are mixed up in officialdom, which one will not see the clues?
"The little arm still wants to twist the thigh?" Zhou Tao, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, leaned sideways and whispered to Hou Jianbin .
"Hard!? How long can it be hard? Hou Jianbin pursed his lips disdainfully, touched the wine glass with Zhou Tao, raised his head and drank it all, this is the third glass of wine that the emperor said.
Everyone has their own thoughts, and they are all fiddling with their abacus beads in their hearts, whether it is a wishful abacus or an iron abacus, that is, the benevolent and the wise see the wise, according to common sense, it is impossible for Prince Qing to want to retreat this contradictory thing 625. It is unlikely that the emperor wants to solve this matter by dividing it by two.
Prince Qing and the emperor directly and secretly argued this time, and the most direct beneficiary was Zuo Chen, although I don't know what the outcome will be in the future, at least the emperor's plan to marry was put on hold at the moment.
With Prince Qing's thoughts, a third brother is already useless, and he is only willing to stay in the palace to recruit cats and dogs. Although he was left to enter and leave the court, he was under house arrest in Kyoto, just like the bird in the cage that seemed to be comfortable and carefree, but in fact there was no freedom! What else can the emperor do? Thinking so, the prince raised his glass and gestured to the prince of Tazi from afar, and raised his neck to drink it all.
Just drink yours, and you want to pull me into the water? The prince of Tazi sneered, raised his glass and nodded, and then raised his glass with both hands and drank it from afar to the emperor, and bowed deeply to his chin with the mouth of the cup facing down, and saw the emperor nodding with a smile, and then shook the reversed wine glass to Prince Qing.
What a thoughtful old guy! Zuo Chen thought to himself.
No one should be offended, at least let people feel that etiquette should be like this, a prince who is an envoy of a foreign land, after all, is an outsider, and the only thing he can do is that!
Suddenly, the high mood was disturbed by the prince's actions, the atmosphere in the banquet hall was already a little depressed, and the officials with smaller official ranks had no right to speak, and at this time, they were even more afraid of provoking the fire, and the atmosphere did not dare to gasp, like a frightened rabbit, his eyes scanned the adults from time to time, and occasionally secretly glanced at the emperor who was seated.
In an instant, the heart that suppressed the "thumping" and beating wildly due to excitement was not an ordinary uncomfortable taste.
Zhou Tao, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, secretly complained in his heart, as the head of the family in charge of the ceremonial affairs, the embarrassing atmosphere of the adjustment is not good, but there is a responsibility for dereliction of duty, and it is good to be scolded by the emperor afterwards, if the emperor is not happy, no one knows what kind of punishment he will receive, after all, there are foreign envoys present at this banquet, not to mention that the emperor has made it clear that this multinational summit must not lose the prestige of Daantai!
Hou Jianbin of the Ministry of Industry squinted at Zhou Tao, who was sweating on his forehead, and said secretly, your old boy doesn't boast of being resourceful, how can he become an ant on a hot pot? The emperor has given you enough time to think about it, and you have drunk all three glasses of wine, so why don't you have to drink three more glasses? You want to drink, and the emperor is angry and rewards you with a cup of Heding Red, and it is too late to say anything at that time.
"Your Majesty, the kid has a few words to say, I hope my emperor will be gracious!" Zuo Chen suddenly left his seat and knelt on the ground, and said with his hands.
The hearts of the officials are beating "bang bang" again, since Zuo Chen entered Kyoto, he has been involved in one thing after another, always adding a burden to their hearts, this time there will be no moths, right?
"Oh? I'm right! The emperor's happy appearance made all the officials, including the envoys from foreign countries, secretly relieved in their hearts. At the same time, they all speculated with interest about the emperor - smiling at Zuo Chen's eyebrows was an attitude of recognition, and it was also a signal to show their love.
Zhou Tao slowly sighed as relieved, touched the sweat on his forehead and secretly aimed at the emperor, and was glared at by the emperor when his eyes met, so frightened that Zhou Tao's left hand trembled and his eyes were lost, and the erosion of sweat immediately made his left tears flow. Fortunately, most of everyone's attention is on Zuo Chen, and few people really pay attention to it.
"Your Majesty, the boy is dedicated to the joy of the dragon's face, as well as to the pleasure of the lords and the messengers, and does not dare to ask for a reward from the Holy One. The saint is benevolent and obvious to the world, and Pan Xiangye said that he will be rewarded later,...... It really made the kid cry with gratitude, and he was scared! The boy is grateful to Dade for his small merits, thanks to the Holy Hope to give him the position of the Ministry of Works, and the boy is grateful to Dade, and he is forever remembered! I beg the emperor not to reward him again, lest the boy be pampered. ”
Zuo Chen's words will not immediately reverse the embarrassing situation, but it provides everyone with a lot of topic space, as long as they can actively grasp the theme, I believe that the previous warm atmosphere will soon be restored.
Pan Xiangye was about to open his mouth to praise Zuo Chen for a few words, but when he saw the emperor's eyes, he smiled slightly and picked up the teacup on the table.
If you don't open your mouth again, you really have to wait for the emperor to pick the top flower feather, Zhou Tao thought secretly, and slowly stood up, "Your Majesty, the lower officials have something to say......
"Liu Shilang is flat, and he sits down. I have a certain number in my heart, you don't need to say much! The emperor deliberately interrupted Zhou Tao's words, and after arranging for Zuo Chenfu, he looked at Zhou Tao again, "You ...... Speak. ”
The attitude towards the two of them is so obvious, and all the officials are not blind, how can they not understand and not be tired? Especially the sentence "There is a certain number in your heart, you don't need to say much!" The obvious meaning is that I just want to reward you, and no one can stop it!
"Your Majesty, Liu Shilang is a talent of warp and weft, and he has created many rare things in the year of the weak crown, and today he said that he is afraid of having a pampered heart, which shows that he is young and old, and he will become the pillar of Daan Thailand in the future! The holy dragon's eyes are like torches and wisdom and pearls, which shows that the saint is willing to seek talents in the world, which is the luck of the great Antai and the luck of the world! Pan Xiangye also agrees that Liu Shilang is a talent of Yiqun, and the lower officials even agree with the holy reward, showing the meaning of our emperor's grace. ”
Zhou Tao raised his head slightly, looked at the emperor, and said: "Your Majesty, the lower officials still have a word, I implore the emperor to atone for the sin of disrespect of the lower officials first!" ”
"Speak!"
"If you don't reward this son, I am afraid that there will be ...... I'm afraid there will be ...... Suspicion of violent destruction! Zhou Tao is really an old fox, trying to keep his voice low, it sounds like he is panicked, but everyone in the hall can hear it!
It is not an exaggeration to stir up a thousand waves with one stone! In order to avoid the unknown punishment from the emperor, Zhou Tao can be said to have made great determination and courage, so to help the emperor to promote the marriage initiative, in the emperor to get benefits, and at the same time offended Prince Qing and the criminal department Shangshu Li Ziqin, although not the same camp, in the past, there was a lot of friction just skin, in this environment and hidden meaning, this is a deep visible bone trauma!
Very satisfied with Zhou Tao's words, the emperor smiled with a smile on his face, "What Zhou Aiqing said, I am very pleased!" What is the sin? ”
"Emperor Xie! Atonement for the great disrespect of the ministers! Long live my emperor, long live it! Zhou Tao listened to the emperor with no intention of punishment, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, only to cry. This time it really scared him a lot!
"Flat! Retire. The emperor waved his hand to Zhou Tao on the dragon chair, and said: "Since you can't destroy the heavens, it is indeed better to give Liu Shilang a reward, what do you think?" ”
Zuo Chen listened to the emperor's words, and was dizzy for a while! I thought that the matter of giving marriage was shelved by Prince Qing's silence. Unexpectedly, he was flattered by the old fox Zhou Tao, and was put on the bright side by the emperor. The feeling of being empty in the bamboo basket hit his heart, and suddenly, Zuo Chen lost his strength.
"My Emperor Shengming!" Whether you are willing or unwilling, the emperor's mind must never change, who dares to go against the holy will under the general trend?
"Good! Very good! I am very pleased, all of you Aiqing are rewarded with a cup of centennial daughter red! ”
