Chapter 332: Intentions

Zhou Heng returned to Anhua Palace on time as always, Rou Jia was naΓ―ve, rushed in front of Cui Keyin, and shouted happily: "Brother Huang." ”

Zhou Heng frowned slightly and ignored her.

Cui Keyin's face sank, and she saluted: "The concubine sees the emperor." ”

Zhou Heng stepped forward to help him up and asked Cui Keyin: "Why is Rou Jia here?" ”

Cui Keyin said: "My sister has something to say to the emperor. The concubine retreated, and the emperor and his sister had a good narrative. ”

"What are you talking about?" Zhou Heng took Cui Keyin's hand and sat on the Luohan bed, and said, "If there is anything to avoid your sister-in-law, say it." ”

Rou Jia has been following behind the two of them, and when she saw that Zhou Heng didn't look at her for a moment, and her eyes didn't leave Cui Keyin for a moment, she was very unhappy. But thinking about the brother and sister who are not the same mother's siblings, he still endured it and did not have a seizure, and said: "The courtier sister begged the imperial brother to give her marriage, and promised the courtier sister to the sister-in-law's brother." ”

Zhou Heng didn't understand: "What do you mean?" ”

"The courtier's sister fell in love with Cui Gongzi at first sight, and begged the imperial brother to fulfill it." This sentence has been practiced by Roujia for two days, and now it is not difficult to say it at all.

Zhou Heng glanced at her strangely and said, "Have you taken a fancy to my eldest brother?" ”

Rou Jia nodded again and again, and said, "Ask the imperial brother to fulfill it." ”

Looking at Zhou Heng's expression, she knew that Cui Keyin really kept her promise and didn't tell him in advance, she was very satisfied, and couldn't help but glance at Cui Keyin gratefully.

Zhou Heng also looked at Cui Keyin and said, "Do you know about this matter?" ”

Cui Keyin said honestly: "I know, my sister told me yesterday." She wants to ask the emperor for marriage with her own eyes. Let me not get involved. ”

"That's a lot of guts. You are a girl, so you like a man? Zhou Heng said: "How did you teach your grandmother?" Don't you understand that your sister-in-law must decide this? ”

Cui Keyin said: "The emperor is serious, on one side is his sister, on the other side is the concubine's brother, the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, and the concubines are better to avoid." ”

One has to marry, the other will definitely not marry, and whoever mixes with whom is not a human being. Therefore, in this matter, Cui Keyin resolutely avoided it.

Rou Jia didn't mean to disrespect Cui Keyin, so Zhou Heng's face softened a little. Said: "This matter. I will make a decision after I have discussed it with your sister-in-law. ”

"Sister-in-law must have agreed." Seeing that Zhou Heng did not directly refuse, Rou Jia happily saluted and retired.

Zhou Heng didn't ask Cui Keyin what he meant, he passed the meal first, and then after eating. I played with Lele for a while. I'm tired of watching Lele play. Coaxed him to sleep, and then sat down with Cui Keyin to drink tea.

Cui Keyin saw that he was very free today, and said, "Isn't the emperor busy with government affairs today?" ”

"There's only so much more to deal with every day. There is absolutely no less, how can it not be busy? It's just that no matter how busy you are, you have to accompany Lele. Zhou Heng said, his slender fingers washing the cup. His fingers were slender and clean, and they moved like flowers. Cui Keyin couldn't take her eyes off it.

Zhou Heng smiled slightly, he liked to see her look at him like this, otherwise why did he like to drink tea more and more?

"What do you think about Roujia's matter?"

Cui Keyin asked rhetorically: "What does the emperor think?" ”

Didn't he know that Cui Muhua was bent on seeking fame?

Zhou Heng washed the teacup first, brewed tea, and the fragrance of tea spread from the teacup, and the aroma was tangy. He put a cup of tea in front of Cui Keyin, and then said slowly: "I think this matter is not impossible. ”

Cui Keyin raised his eyes to look at his face and said, "Your Majesty? ”

Does he have no intention of cultivating Cui Muhua or is he worried that the Cui family will grow up? If he said that, why did he have great admiration for Tang Lun? Tang Lun is her cousin and a relative.

Seeing Cui Keyin's eyes widen, Zhou Heng said: "Roujia is wild and difficult to train, and the Cui family is a scholarly family, so it is best to marry into the Cui family and be influenced by the fragrance of books." ”

"The emperor's words are inappropriate, is it really suitable for Rou Jia to be the wife of the Cui family? The eldest aunt has very high requirements for her daughter-in-law, but I am afraid that Roujia may not be to her liking. Cui Keyin said in a hurry, and her voice was a little sharp.

Zhou Heng said: "It's okay, Roujia is the same as the imperial sister." ”

"No way!" Cui Keyin categorically refused, and said: "The eldest brother is the eldest son, how can he open another mansion without admitting Huan's knees?" The eldest uncle only has such a single seedling, and they opened another mansion, wouldn't the eldest uncle be desolate in his old age? ”

Is this what a wise man should do?

Zhou Heng pondered: "Then let the eldest aunt train Rou Jia, and then marry into the Cui family after teaching." ”

Cui Keyin was angry and turned her back to ignore him.

Zhou Heng touched his nose, drank the tea in front of her, leaned over, and said, "Then what do you want me to do?" ”

Cui Keyin didn't expect him to come over, and when he turned around, the noses of the two almost collided.

"If you really care about what I think, don't allow this family business, and don't give marriage." Cui Keyin pouted.

The two have known and loved each other and lived together for so many years, and this is the first time Cui Keyin has asked him. Zhou Heng really wanted to agree to her, but he quickly restrained his mind and said against his will: "Knowing each other knows each other, it's really a good relationship." ”

Cui Keyin was so angry that she shook her face and left.

Zhou Heng looked at her back as she left and was silent.

Cui Keyin returned to the dormitory, and seeing that Zhou Heng did not chase after him, he quickly determined that he did it on purpose, intending to weaken the power of the Cui family. He was still suspicious after all.

Zhou Heng drank two cups of tea before coming over, and when he saw Cui Keyin holding incense in his hand and cheeks in a daze, he sat down beside her, and said, "Are you worried that Princess Shang will not be able to enter the office?" This is easy, and I will abolish this ancestral law. ”

"How can the laws of our ancestors be so easily abolished? Don't deceive me. Cui Keyin didn't raise her eyelids.

Zhou Heng said: "I don't lie to you. I have always wanted to rectify the dynasty, and in the past few months, I have only cleared out the people left by Wang Zhe, but many outdated rules have been retained. I've been busy with this these days, and I want to get rid of these rules. It's better to take the article that the horse can't participate in politics, how about it? ”

Seeing that he was right, Cui Keyin really thought about it seriously, and said: "It's not proper, if you do this, there must be a lot of resistance, now there is the king of Chu waiting for the opportunity to move, and there is Zeng Xian eyeing him outside, how can we act rashly?" ”

Zhou Heng said: "Since the founding of Taizu to my generation, it is already the eighth generation. The wind of good war has disappeared back then, the sons and daughters of the nobles do not want to forge ahead, and the civil official group is bent on controlling the world, and there is no emperor in their eyes. In the long run, not to mention that the country will not be a country, the monarchy will be like an empty word. ”

The civil officials have always regarded the world as their duty, and they are bent on wanting the emperor to do nothing, and to govern the country by them, and only stand up to be their arbiter when they need it. Emperor Zhi'an was tired of government affairs, so he ignored the government affairs, and if he did not entrust government affairs to Wang Zhe, but to the cabinet, it would be in line with their wishes.

Zhou Heng is ambitious and wants to expand his territory, how can he hand over government affairs to them? Therefore, conflicts are inevitable, and it depends only on when they break out. (To be continued.) )
