Chapter 64: Confronting Prime Minister Wen
Since Xianxian ascended the throne, he has not officially been to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and this time, he went without thinking about it, just because of one person - Luo Xiaozhu.
Even Xian Xian himself didn't know when Luo Xiaozhu would be so important in his heart, was it the first time he saw that face full of tears and snot, or when she said that she told him not to appear in front of her again, or when she met her soft lips for the first time? Xian Xian himself can't tell.
It seems that as long as there is something about Luo Xiaozhu, Xian Xian can't pretend that he didn't hear or see it.
It's just that the more things get to the end, the more serious the condition becomes, let's call it the sequelae of love! (What the hell?) )
Before Xian Xian could fully figure it out, the sedan chair had already stopped in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he had already knelt in a row at the door.
After Xian Xian got out of the sedan chair, his eyes scanned the crowd, and his eyes revealed a little disappointment, because he didn't see the person he wanted to see.
"Why does the emperor have time to come to the old minister's humble house today?" Although Prime Minister Wen was polite on the surface, he had a sense of arrogance in his heart.
"I heard that the prime minister has been unwell recently, so I brought the imperial doctor and some precious medicinal materials, hoping to make the prime minister's illness get better soon." After speaking, Qian Xian beckoned, and a few imperial doctors and some little eunuchs with precious medicinal materials walked out of the back.
"The old minister is getting older, and his body is naturally not as good as before, the emperor really has a heart." Prime Minister Wen turned around and made away, and Xian Xian walked towards the mansion with his hands behind his back.
After seeing Xian Xian enter, Prime Minister Wen raised his head, with some sarcasm in his smile, and said that he came to visit him, who knows what he was planning, he has ignored it for so many years, but now he is attentive.
After entering the inner hall, Xianxian was attracted by the camellia flowers competing to open in the inner courtyard, red, yellow, and white competing with each other, which made the whole house a lot of vitality, especially the thin early snow covered by the petals, which added to the cake of the entire tea garden.
"Could this be the camellia that my father gave to the prime minister back then?" Xian Xian turned his face and asked, his expression looking a little surprised.
"I didn't expect the emperor to remember this." Prime Minister Wen replied with a smile, when the emperor gave him the camellia, Xian Xian was only 8 years old, and he could remember this incident, which can be regarded as a heart.
"That's right, this is the Eight Treasures of Camellia Immortal given by the emperor at the beginning, and now it is growing very well." Prime Minister Wen looked at the camellia in the garden, and he was also quite emotional.
Camellia has both the proud plum style of "only the camellia is very durable, and the only one can occupy the spring breeze in the deep moon", and the bright peony of the Ling peony of "the flower is bright red, and the light glow is deep", and the father admires the character of the prime minister, so he will give this flower to the prime minister. "Jian Xian smiled evilly, which was unpredictable.
"I think the emperor didn't come here to enjoy the flowers, right?" Although Prime Minister Wen was somewhat touched by Qianxian's words, he had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, he Xianxian was not such an idle person.
Hearing this, Xian Xian raised his eyebrows, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he moved to the inner hall and sat down, and the maid on the side hurriedly brought the tea tray to Prime Minister Wen.
"Your Majesty, this camellia is fragrant and delicious, and the aftertaste is endless. The emperor is rare to come, and he should taste it. After Prime Minister Wen finished speaking, he personally picked up the teacup and bowed down to serve tea.
Xian Xian took the teacup, pretending not to hold it steady, and the teacup "Smack!" It fell to the ground and shattered.
"The emperor forgives his sins!" Prime Minister Wen knew that it was intentional by Jian Xian, but the person in front of him was the emperor, no matter what wrong things he did, it would never be him who should apologize. I feel very uncomfortable.
"What is the prime minister's crime?" Xian Xian raised an evil smile, a rather smug look, "It's obvious that I accidentally didn't catch the teacup." As soon as Xian Xian said this, the atmosphere in the entire inner hall became a little serious, and the people standing inside didn't even dare to come out.
Prime Minister Wen now understands his intentions a little, and now the government is divided into two groups of people, and he came here just to win him over.
Thinking of this, Prime Minister Wen sneered in his heart, and without waiting for Xian Xian to shout flat, he straightened his waist and stood up, and his momentum gradually began to rise.
"The reason why the emperor came here is because he wants the minister to stand on the emperor's side, right?" When Prime Minister Wen said this, his tone was quite arrogant. It doesn't seem to be taking Xianxian seriously at all.
"Hahaha! ~~" Who knew that Jian Xian laughed loudly after hearing it, this laughter seemed frivolous, but it made people a little afraid. He beckoned with his hand, and the maid brought the tea, and then personally picked up the teacup and handed it to Prime Minister Wen.
Seeing Xian Xian personally serving tea to himself, Prime Minister Wen's momentum was even more amazing, he wanted to give the emperor a face, in front of so many people, it was not good not to take the tea he served, so Prime Minister Wen stretched out his hands, and when he was about to touch the cup, Xianxian's hand was released, and the teacup fell to the ground again.
"Old minister, I don't really understand what the emperor means." Prime Minister Wen was teased like this twice, and he couldn't hold his face, looking like a lion who was about to be angered.
"Smack!" Xian Xian turned around and slapped the table, and the whole table sawdust flew wildly, almost falling apart, and everyone panicked and knelt down one after another. Including Prime Minister Wen.
"Prime Minister Wen, I respect you for your high morality, as a veteran of the previous dynasty, I never ordered you to be in a position of power, do you think I am courting you now?"
When Xianxian said this, the corners of his mouth hooked up a mocking smile, "In my eyes, you are just dusk, the general trend has gone, like an eagle with a broken arm." The reason why you retain your current official position as prime minister is all for the sake of your father's face, if you return to me today, you are useless to me. ”
He must admit that the growth of Xianxian surprised him a little, and he thought that he would wag his tail and beg for mercy to beg him to surrender, but he didn't expect that he wanted to abandon the car to protect the handsome, and he didn't take him into account at all.
"Your Majesty, don't forget, although the old minister is old, he has three points of military power, and it is not difficult to overthrow anyone." Prime Minister Wen straightened his waist again and stood up, relying on this power, Xian Xian had not touched him for so many years.
Xianxian smiled again, more heartily and sarcastically than the last time.
"Soldiers?" Xian Xian repeated, "In the past dynasties, there was no civilian official who held the power of the army. ”
"What do you mean?" Prime Minister Wen was shocked by this sentence and broke out in a cold sweat. I don't know what I want to do.
"Now that the war on the frontier is urgent, I have the right to call on your military power, in other words, I have the right to take back your three-point military power." Seeing that Prime Minister Wen wanted to refute, Yan Xian suddenly patted Prime Minister Wen on the shoulder, "But I won't do that, I will use the three-point military power in my hand to calm the border war." When the time comes, I will come back and ask for your three points of power. ”
After saying that, he turned around to leave, and as he left, he glanced around again, but he didn't see her until he heard a scream......
