Chapter 161: Intent
Sure enough, Yan Shichong took the initiative to express his remorse to Emperor Zhu Zhi the next morning, and earnestly begged the emperor to invite back the ministers who had resigned because they were dissatisfied with this matter a few days ago.
"They are all loyal ministers and capable ministers who have made great contributions to the Ming Kingdom, and their departure is the biggest loss of the Ming Kingdom, so I implore the emperor to restore their official positions, if any of them refuse to come back, Weichen is willing to go and ask for guilt in person." Yan Shichong said slowly.
At that moment, it seemed that some kind of sincere emotion appeared through his tearful eyes. In this exclusive man's court, such an expression seems to be too pretentious, but it can still move some people.
The ministers whispered, speculating on the intentions behind his move.
Of course, no one dared to fully trust him, and everyone knew that he was a scheming man. However, it would undoubtedly be a good thing if the resigned ministers could come back again, so everyone did not come forward to make fun of or oppose him for such a reason.
The entire court hall was extremely quiet.
Some people want to laugh, but they try to keep their mouths from laughing.
Zhu Zhi coughed lightly, the smile on his face gradually became warmer, and he said: "Yan Aiqing's cognition is really unprecedentedly profound, I am about to be moved to tears." But I'm afraid it's not so easy to invite this group of ministers back, Yan Aiqing, it's time to test your sincerity. ”
So Zhu Zhi asked Yan Shichong to write a handwritten letter to each minister who resigned because of this matter.
Such a move has a silent bullying connotation.
However, Yan Shichong nodded silently and agreed.
An incomprehensible smile appeared on Zhu Zhi's face.
After the next court, Yan Jinxuan deliberately approached the third prince Zhu Rui.
He remembered what Su Shanyun had told him, so he wanted to get in touch with this person.
When he walked out of the main hall and came to the Yinghua Gate, Yan Jinxuan suddenly said, "Third Prince, where are you going now?" ”
Zhu Rui glanced at him with some surprise, and said with a smile: "Lord Yan, this king is going to go to the military department." ”
"Then we can walk to the palace gate together." Yan Jinxuan said.
"Hmm." Zhu Rui smiled again.
This is Zhu Rui's first close contact with Yan Jinxuan.
He had heard of his name a long time ago, and knew from the bottom of his heart that this was a person worthy of his acquaintance, so he took the initiative to provoke the topic: "Lord Yan's "Water Jing Beizhi" is really a good book!" With it, the Ming Kingdom does not know how many floods can be avoided in the future. ”
As he spoke, he looked at Yan Jinxuan's handsome side face, thinking about what kind of spiritual power was making this man who looked very young have a calmer expression than most men of the same age.
"Thank you!" Yan Jinxuan said. At the same time, his eyes glanced at Zhu Rui keenly.
This is a pair of eyes that seem to be able to see everything, Zhu Rui said secretly in his heart.
No wonder Su Shanyun once suggested that he have more contact with him, this man does have something very special on him, and he can't tell what it is for a while. It's just that the thing is pleasant, which makes him subconsciously feel that this person is worth associating.
"Lord Yan, what do you think of Scholar Yan's actions today?" Zhu Rui suddenly asked.
"Be careful, it's likely that he's helping them come back so that one day he'll be able to strike them back harder." Yan Jinxuan replied after a little consideration.
"This king thinks the same thing, but obviously. He's doing useless work this time. ”
"Indeed, the tiger and leopard are still here, who wants to come back and die?"
For this consensus, the two smiled and patted each other's shoulders.
…………………
Yan Jinrui had been silent for several days since his parents rejected him and Xu Qingqing's relationship, and gradually, the desire to leave this home to live with her prevailed.
He decided to find a day to leave quietly.
It's better to be at night, or after the dismissal, when he even has his luggage ready.
But he couldn't stand the extremely reluctant and worried eyes of Mrs. Lu when she looked at him, as if she knew that he would leave one day. As a result, he had to postpone his departure date again and again.
On this day, when he went home from the ya, he saw Mrs. Lu's gaze again. They chased him as if out of nowhere, and he felt the urge to break free, and he decided to leave tomorrow when he went to the office, and in order not to let his family know, he was going to take the salute somewhere tonight, so that he would not have to return to the house again to-morrow.
He knew that once he returned home and saw his mother's gaze, he would not be able to leave ruthlessly.
So he decided to leave his luggage at a hotel first.
Then he'll have to go out tonight.
But going out with his luggage would definitely make his mother suspicious, so he thought of a solution.
He said to his mother, "Mother, the sunset today is so beautiful, I want to go to the suburbs for a walk." ”
Mrs. Lu was immediately full of nervousness. She was afraid that he would leave just now, so she hurriedly said, "Although the sunset is beautiful, it will pass in a while, so don't go?" Besides, your father and brother will be back soon. ”
"I won't be going for long. It's just slipping on the side of the big ridge. Li Dong will also follow. ”
Mrs. Lu stared at his face for a long time and then said, "Okay, then you go and go back quickly." ”
For some reason, she was always a little uneasy.
"Mm-hmm, I'll be back soon." Yan Jinrui said, immediately looking away, not daring to look at her again.
Soon, Yan Jinrui divided the originally prepared luggage into two bags. It was able to be released from the pane of his room, and then picked up by his attendant Li Dong outside.
Then they rode a horse and carried their luggage to the hotel.
Li Dong and Yan Jinrui have been together for three years, so they naturally know Yan Jinrui's intention to go to the hotel with these luggage, so he said on the way: "Third master, I hope you won't be away for too long." ”
Yan Jinrui said with a smile: "I won't go for too long, at most three or four years, at least one or two years." ”
When they arrived at the hotel, they packed their luggage and left.
The first floor of the inn is a restaurant, and it is time for dinner, so there are a lot of customers and a nice atmosphere.
The cold wind outside was blowing, and Yan Jinrui suddenly felt a little nostalgic for the warmth in the house, so he said to Li Dong: "Li Dong, let's have two drinks before leaving." ”
"Okay." Li Dong responded briskly.
Thinking that Yan Jinrui was leaving tomorrow, he also wanted to toast him with a glass of wine.
So the two of them found a place to sit by the window.
When he was outside, Yan Jinrui didn't treat Li Dong as a person, so he let him sit opposite him.
Yan Jinrui ordered a plate of fried pork kidney, a plate of sour shredded potatoes, ten skewers of roast mutton, two butterflies of fried peanuts and a jar of yellow rice wine.
"Third master, this wine is too much." Li Dong looked at the jar full of wine and said.
"Don't get in the way, I'm suddenly very elegant tonight." Yan Jinrui said.
immediately took the initiative to clink glasses with Li Dong.
Since the wine was warm, Yan Jinrui felt very happy after drinking it, so he drank it slowly one cup after another.
In fact, there is still a lot of sorrow in my heart.
I couldn't talk to Li Dong much about this sorrow, so I had to drink with my head bored. (To be continued.) )
PS: Dear friends, the second update is coming!
