Since King Rui returned to Beijing, he would turn around in front of Emperor Yuanwu every day, no matter what he said, he would always show his face in front of him. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Emperor Yuanwu didn't pay much attention to him at first, but later the imperial doctor diagnosed and treated him properly, and Emperor Yuanwu gradually became able to say a word or two, and he also responded a little bit to King Rui.

He saw the impact of King Rui's return on the court, and his heart was mixed.

He Dan asked Emperor Yuanwu to help him up, tuck a soft towel under his chin, and feed him medicine.

Emperor Yuanwu frowned, finally drank a bowl of medicine, and his lips moved: "King Rui." ”

He Dan said: "I heard that the court is talking about pushing the military order today, and King Rui is still discussing with the four ministers, so it should be a little late today." ”

Emperor Yuanwu's brows furrowed even deeper, and he muttered in his heart that King Rui was pretending to be filial for a while and did not plan to continue pretending.

I thought so in my heart, but Emperor Yuanwu still hoped that King Rui would honestly come to him to ask for peace.

Half an hour later than usual, King Rui hurried over, asked Emperor Yuanwu for peace, and said: "The son is late, but the time is just right, and I can accompany my father to have lunch." ”

Emperor Yuanwu now does not limit himself to eating several meals a day, because he can only eat liquid food, so he is hungry faster, and the number of meals will rise.

King Rui personally scooped porridge for Emperor Yuanwu, spread it with refreshing side dishes, and fed Emperor Yuanwu a few mouthfuls before handing it over to the waiter next to him.

The rule of royal dining is that he does not sleep or sleep, and King Rui does not open his mouth when he eats, but the speed of eating is not slow.

Emperor Yuanwu secretly watched, but he couldn't help muttering in his heart, thinking that he was eating too fast because he wanted to accompany him quickly, and perfunctory today's escort.

Emperor Yuanwu snorted coldly in his heart, and ate porridge more slowly.

King Rui didn't care, after resting for a while, he took the bowl and spoon in the hands of the servants, and then went into battle in person to feed Emperor Yuanwu.

At this moment, Emperor Yuanwu felt like a fish in his throat, and the speed of eating was obviously faster.

After the meal, a table of exquisite dishes was withdrawn, and King Rui began to report today's court affairs with Emperor Yuan Wu.

Emperor Yuanwu knew that he couldn't meddle in these things now, so he listened dispensably.

For some new decrees, Emperor Yuanwu, who was conservative in his later years, found it really difficult to accept, such as pushing military orders and increasing military defense in various places.

King Rui paused, looked at Emperor Yuanwu, and said in a flat voice: "The order to push the army was not put forward by the ministers, but in the past few years, because of the Xianbei war, the forces that are not the same heart with the imperial court in various places are also quite impatient, so some courtiers put forward this order." After discussion, the four ministers felt that it did not endanger the national capital, and the matter of military defense was of great importance, so they argued for a long time. If it works well, our Great Wei can also be a soldier for all people, making the surrounding countries even more insignificant. ”

King Rui explained, and asked Emperor Yuanwu again: "The four ministers have preliminarily passed this order, and the specific implementation plan will continue to be considered. Does my father still think that there is no need to continue? ”

Emperor Yuanwu's chest rose and fell, and he couldn't express his opposition again categorically.

King Rui smiled: "I can't make up my mind in my father's heart, so it's better to wait for the next specific implementation plan of the military order to come out, and then the son will talk to his father in detail, and my father can think about it again when he arrives." ”

After King Rui finished talking about these court events, he was silent for a moment and then mentioned Liu Tong in Zhongguan Hutong.

"Now it is the time for the DPRK and China to employ people, a large number of corrupt officials have been investigated and punished, and the newly appointed officials still need to be sharpened, and there is a lack of people who can guide them and solve their doubts. Although the sixth, twelfth, and fourteenth brothers can share some of their burdens, the strength of the more people will always be greater. Erchen thought, can the father release the ninth brother and let the ninth brother also contribute? ”

King Rui said lightly: "Erchen heard that after Erchen left the capital and went to Yanbei, the ninth brother's ability to do things in the court was very outstanding. The ninth brother is a good seedling who does errands, and Erchen doesn't want to bury him. ”

Emperor Yuanwu looked at King Rui coldly, and after a while, two words still came out of his mouth: "No." ”

"Why is my father so persistent, the ninth brother entered Zhongguan Hutong at the beginning, but it was just because my father was dissatisfied with the ninth brother. Now that the ninth brother has been imprisoned for more than two years, no matter how angry his father is, it should be eliminated. ”

"He's, big, disrespectful."

Emperor Yuanwu spit word by word: "You, don't think about it, you succeed!" ”

King Rui stared at his hand silently, and silence spread between father and son.

After a long time, King Rui said softly: "Since my father does not allow it, then according to my father's wishes, let the ninth brother continue to stay in Zhongguan Hutong and still mingle with the eunuchs." Since the founding of the country, I am afraid that there has not been such a degree of despair among the royal relatives and nobles. The father is not afraid of people watching jokes, and the sons have no opinion. ”

King Rui stood up, saluted Emperor Yuanwu, and said: "However, I believe that my father does not have a deep hatred for the ninth brother, and sooner or later my father will still let the filial son of the ninth brother come out." ”

King Rui instructed He Dan a few words, said goodbye and left.

Emperor Yuanwu's hand couldn't move, if he did, he would have grabbed something and thrown it to the ground.

He Dan personally rubbed Emperor Yuanwu's legs, and sighed quietly: "Your Majesty, why do you want to be angry with King Rui...... Since King Rui returned to Beijing, what he asked for in front of His Majesty has always been the matter of His Royal Highness the Nine. ”

Emperor Yuanwu's chest rose and fell, and he said, "Nine, they, ...... together"

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Ninth is indeed on the side of King Rui." He Dan sighed again: "I heard that His Royal Highness Nine was bullied by the palace people when he was a child, and he was also ridiculed by the palace concubines, but His Royal Highness King Rui was good to His Royal Highness Jiu's younger brother." It is understandable that His Highness Nine has acted like this. ”

"Hmph." Emperor Yuanwu snorted coldly.

He Dan saw that he couldn't persuade him, so he didn't persuade him, so as not to make Emperor Yuanwu suspicious, so he only told some jokes with Emperor Yuanwu, and talked about the harem concubines.

"Your Majesty, why don't you announce a few ladies to accompany you and accompany your majesty to talk and relieve your boredom?"

Emperor Yuanwu pondered for a moment and said, "Noble concubine." ”

He Dan was not surprised.

is in a high position in the palace, and there is only one concubine who has no heirs.

He Dan responded and sent someone to invite the concubine to come.

Qin Guifei came quickly, smiled as usual, and after entering the house, she saluted Emperor Yuanwu and sat down calmly, as if Emperor Yuanwu was not paralyzed at all.

After Emperor Yuanwu became like this, only the concubines in the palace did not change their faces when they saw him.

This made Emperor Yuan Wu feel comfortable.

The concubine smiled: "Your Majesty's complexion looks good today, is there any happy event?" ”

He Dan answered: "What the noble concubine said is true, Your Majesty just drank an extra bowl of porridge, isn't this a happy event?" ”

The concubine nodded and smiled, and picked up some interesting things to tell Emperor Yuanwu.

The smile on Emperor Yuanwu's face was also revealed, and his mood was even more relaxed. (To be continued.) )
