Xiao Zuo was in a very good mood.

He is rich in the world, all kinds of jewelry, and celebrity calligraphy and paintings, nothing can really move him. However, as the saying goes, thousands of clothes are worn, and people are so coaxed and offered, and all the people celebrate his birth, and individuals will feel happy.

No matter how self-righteous Xiao Zuo is, he is still a person in the end, and he is not really the son of heaven as he imagined, let alone a human race.

"Chen Youxiao congratulates my emperor long live, long live." His pleasant thoughts were interrupted, and when he looked down, it was Huainan Hou, who was in charge of the naval army.

However, Xiao Zuo was not annoyed by being interrupted from his thoughts, but was even happier. What could be more profound than a powerful minister kneeling at his feet with great obedience, sincere fear, and trying his best to please him. For the pinnacle of power, he did not hesitate to shed rivers of blood, did not hesitate to slaughter blood relatives, and did not hesitate to kill the woman he loved......

Whenever he dreamed back in the middle of the night, he woke up in a cold sweat, regretted it, and hoped that the past could be repeated, and there could be another choice. But at this moment, he suddenly felt that everything was worth it. Until...... He saw Grandpa Hong open the gift box.

The head of the dragon man is four chisel poppies!

Xiao Zuo's pupils shrank suddenly, and the perfect expression on his face, which was noble and high, almost collapsed. Fortunately, his city was deep enough, and his ass was nailed to the dragon chair that he had worked so hard to get, and he restrained himself from jumping on the spot. However, his special attention and his slightly yawned body still attracted the attention of the ministers.

Who can stand in the court, who can't read words and looks? They looked at each other and made eye contact silently: The emperor is barely out of shape, right? A birthday gift that can make the emperor lose his temper. What is it? If Huainan Hou gets the Sacred Heart, he doesn't know what benefits he will get!

Moment. There was an eerie silence in the huge hall, and a needle drop could be heard. The ministers are jealous. There are those who envy, and there are even more people who wait and see, and there are even more guesses.

And the emperor didn't say anything, You Xiao didn't dare to move. He knew what he was offering and expected the emperor to be happy, but ...... Won't the surprise be too big? How it looks like a fright. Others may not be able to see it really, but he is the closest, and he obviously feels that the emperor's eyes are about to fall into the gift box, his breathing obviously pauses for a moment, and his nose is open. It's like suppressing excitement.

He didn't dare to look up directly, only peeked. After a long time, I saw Xiao Zuo show a smile that seemed to be very gratifying, "This birthday gift is very suitable for me, I like it very much." Huainan Hou, good! ”

"The emperor can like it, he is in a happy mood, and the dragon is healthy. It is the blessing of my great Zhao, and it is also the blessing of the world. Yu Xiao slammed his head on the ground. It stands to reason that he should be ecstatic, after all, he has won the emperor's favor. But for some reason, he couldn't help but shiver, and fear rose in his heart.

Because only he can see. Although the emperor smiled, the smile was unusually cold. There is a faint murderous intent lurking in it. But why is this happening? He offered the emperor's favorite, but he caused a murder! Lick somebody's boots. As a result, he has seen a lot of things on the horse's feet, but ...... Why did the emperor look at him like a dead man? This, this, doesn't make sense!

Xiao Zuo ignored You Xiao's thoughts, and stood up from the dragon chair. Leaned over, stretched out his hand, and took out the famous porcelain of the Qianyan Palace, looking interested, he walked down the Danqi and said to the ministers, "I have one piece of this porcelain, and I have always wanted to get together a pair, but unfortunately I failed to do so." It can be seen that even if you are the son of heaven, even if you are rich all over the world, there are times when you can't get what you want. He seemed to sigh, and as he spoke, he paced slowly among the ministers, showing the treasure that made the "dragon's heart happy", attracting countless cooperative exclamations.

The ministers all envied You Xiao and touched the heartstrings of the emperor, in the Taiping period, this is often better than making a great contribution and getting the holy favor.

However, at this moment, I don't know if Xiao Zuo stumbled under his feet, or his hand slipped, in short, the famous porcelain that had been asked for many years and couldn't get it, suddenly came out of the dragon's hand. In front of everyone's eyes, with the crispness of the uproar, it fell to the ground, crushed, and destroyed into porcelain slag.

Exclamations, one after another.

Everyone's faces turned white, and they were so shocked that not only were they speechless, but they didn't even react. Xiao Zuo seemed to be the same, but he recovered the fastest, with a wry smile on his face, "The world is really changing rapidly, and no one can grasp it." ”

"The emperor is angry, this is an auspicious omen." A sycophant minister quickly came back to his senses, lifted the hem of his official robe, and knelt down, "Today is the emperor's Christmas, which really means that the year (broken) is peaceful!" ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, bless me with peace in the year of Zhao." There are also ministers who follow suit.

Then, His Highness Hulala knelt down and seemed full. Everyone's mouth is saying something similarly flattering.

"Really? It turned out that I lost a piece of porcelain, but it was a good omen. Xiao Zuo laughed, "It's worth it, it's really worth it!" Hong Changzhi, turned around and put away the broken porcelain, and buried it under the wall of my dormitory. I have to think about it all the time, so that my heart can be at peace. These words are ambiguous and seem to have a deep meaning.

Then, Xiao Zuo strode back to the dragon seat on the Danqi, looking very pleasant, "I'm very happy today, let's all get up." Yu Xiao ......"

"The minister is here." You Xiao didn't dare to get up, but took two steps on his knees and kowtowed again.

"After the royal feast, you come to my imperial study. The treasures you have offered have won my heart, and I will reward you. Xiao Zuo's voice came from above, and he couldn't hear joy or anger.

"It is the duty of his subordinates to share worries for the emperor, and he should not be rewarded by the emperor." You Xiao fell to the ground, his throat blocked, and his voice muffled.

"Clear rewards and punishments are the demeanor of a monarch." Xiao Zuo grinned, as if he was joking, but the words he said were heavy, "You just have to come, do you still want to resist the decree?" ”

Speaking of which, where does You Xiao dare to talk more nonsense? And at this time, the shrewd few ministers have not seen that the situation is wrong, then they are really stupid and it is not a pity to die.

Is it true that the emperor spends so much effort to find the Panlong human head and dragon body and four chisel poppies? In other words, the emperor likes this object, and no one seems to have heard the emperor say it himself. All the news came from the palace. It's hard to guarantee. It was not under the emperor's instruction that the people below deliberately spread it. Just to lure the ministers into being fooled. This kind of thing, the emperor has not done it. Bait fishing is exactly the emperor's favorite method. Swallow the seemingly sweet bait and ensure that you have no place to die!

Acting like this is really undignified, but who dares to say anything? Seizing the position, cutting the flowers, and quelling the chaos can be regarded as a fresh trick, and it is eaten all over the world. Just once upon a time. I didn't think that a piece of porcelain or a plaything would also be used by the emperor and cause any big trouble.

The powerful ministers with flexible brains and eyes are all beating drums in their hearts, not to mention You Xiao, who is the person concerned? At this time, he regretted that he wanted to pinch the top and find the most pleasing birthday gift for the emperor. If you just get something rich and wishful, even if you can't get into the eyes of the emperor, it won't be a big problem. The so-called not seeking merit, but seeking no fault, isn't that what it means?

As a military general. He has an instinctive sense of danger and death. If it was just feeling and guessing before, then now he can be 100% sure that this porcelain is not the emperor's favorite, but his reverse scales!

Why is this happening. What special significance an antique can have, he doesn't know. All he knew was that he was going to be unlucky!

Because. When he found out that something was wrong, he didn't dare to observe the emperor. But he paid close attention to Gonggong Hong's face.

Although Hong Changzhi is only a deputy manager, he has been seriously ill for many years because of the only chief manager. But he still retains his position and is kept in the palace, and this eunuch is actually the first confidant of the emperor. No one knows the emperor's mind better than him. However, this person is as strict as a mussel, no matter how high your power is, or how many bribes you give, he will never reveal half a word related to the emperor. Or, this is also the reason why he is reused and deeply trusted by the emperor.

And when the emperor picked up the former Yan Ming porcelain, You Xiao clearly saw that Gonggong Hong's face had changed, and he was by no means happy. Later, the emperor "unintentionally" dropped this rare treasure, and Grandpa Hong trembled, and he almost didn't sit on the ground.

Seeing Hong Changzhi like this, You Xiao's back was immediately soaked in cold sweat! He made a big mistake and made a big deal. This matter is so big that even Hong Changzhi, who has always been shocked, can't control his expression, which can be seen that it is related to his life! Therefore, he immediately decided that if the emperor asked about anything, he would never be greedy for merit, and he would tell the truth absolutely.

The royal banquet was sumptuous, but few people ate comfortably, and You Xiao was even more like sitting on pins and needles, as if he had hundreds of thousands of bright steel knives on his neck, and the clothes on his body were like fished out of water. Finally got to the end of the imperial banquet, and he knelt nervously in front of the imperial book, not daring to look up at the Ninety-Five Venerable.

"Why do you sweat so much?" Overhead, Xiao Zuo's voice came, looking very concerned, "Hong Changzhi, don't fan Huainan Hou yet?" ”

But where did You Xiao dare to receive this kindness, and hurriedly said, "Weichen doesn't dare." Wechen was terrified. Instinctively, he shrank back.

Xiao Zuo suddenly sneered, "My ministers are all human spirits, this is to see that I am unhappy?" ”

"Weichen hopes to make the emperor laugh, not to make Long Yan angry." You Xiao's brain turned quickly, "The emperor knows everything, and the minister really wants to open the minister's stomach and let the emperor see the minister's bravery." ”

"Oh?" Xiao Zuo is not salty, neither light, but only utters one syllable.

You Xiao hurriedly said, "Weichen is blunt, even if he wants to break his head, he doesn't know where he made a big mistake, ask the emperor for advice!" ”

After saying that, there was no sound above his head. The strange and terrifying silence spread in the imperial study, You Xiao was under huge psychological pressure, and when he couldn't hold on, Xiao Zuo asked, "Where did you get the birthday gift you sent?" ”
