Chapter 56: The Two Prime Ministers
"Fifth brother doesn't need to be polite, fourth brother brought you delicious food today."
Wei Zhongxian had already ordered someone to go to Tongfu Palace to get the food box prepared in advance, although now Guo Rong remembered this son, but he still ignored Guo Zongrang's mother.
This is all the emperor's face to blame, drunk and immoral to the palace maid, naturally not a glorious thing, Guo Rong is naturally able to avoid it, but it is bitter that this woman who only has a surname and no name can only be called Li Shunchang.
Li Shunchang also knew that his status was low, and he was not even treated well in the palace with his son, so he usually did not fight or bow his eyebrows, for fear that this cruel palace fight would affect him.
Maybe he felt that Li Shunchang knew the rules very well, or maybe he held his own noble status, Fu Jinhuan basically ignored Li Shunchang, and even Qin Guifei and Du Guifei sent by the Southern Tang Dynasty didn't pay much attention to the woman Li Shunchang.
Li Shunchang also often taught Guo Zongrang that you must know how to endure in case of trouble, our mother and son have a hard time in this palace, don't take your identity as the fifth prince too seriously.
Where did the young Guo Zongrang understand this, he was naughty a few times, and he was either sued by the palace maid or by the eunuch, but fortunately, there has been no queen in the harem, and Fu Jinhuan, who has the highest status in the palace, is too lazy to care about these idle things, but just sent Guo Zongrang back to Li Shunchang and let her teach her a lesson.
Actually, Fu Jinhuan just didn't bother to care, she didn't say how kind she was, but her approach made Li Shunchang frightened.
Let her handle and discipline her son by herself, Li Shunchang had no choice but to beat Xiao Zongrang a few times, and was afraid that Fu Jinhuan would feel dissatisfied, and after the fight, he would go to Fu Jinhuan to kowtow and tell how hard he beaten.
As a result, in exchange for a few words of sarcasm that Fu Jinhuan did not feel painful, what is your own birth, you can also do it...... Something like that.
Fu Jinhuan didn't have any malice, just a few sarcastic words between the women, but Li Shunchang kept it all in mind.
was beaten a lot, and was beaten ruthlessly, and the young Guo Zongrang gradually understood that if he wanted not to be beaten, he had to learn from his mother and be a man with his tail between his legs in the palace.
Therefore, when Guo Zongrang saw Guo Zongxun, although Guo Zongrang wanted to make love with the fourth brother who sent him snacks, he really didn't dare, before coming, the mother concubine told her a thousand times, you must abide by the rules when you see your fourth brother, your fourth brother is the biological son of the late queen, and now, his aunt is also a queen, and her status is noble, you must not cause trouble to our mother and son.
Guo Zongxun saw his younger brother for the first time when he crossed over, looking at Guo Zongrang's honest appearance, he thought that he was like this, or he was a little recognizant, so he was so restrained and respectful.
Wei Zhongxian put the food box on the table, opened it, brought out the small snacks one by one, and laid them out, Guo Zongrang looked at the saliva flowing out, but he didn't dare to move.
"Fifth brother, why are you so polite, don't be restrained in front of the fourth brother, come, take whatever you want to eat."
Guo Zongxun generously pushed the plate to Guo Zongrang's side again, these snacks don't matter to him, you know, his current mental age is an adult in his twenties, and he has long passed the age of eating snacks.
Guo Zongrang couldn't help it, timidly stretched out his finger and pointed to one of the plum blossom-style dim sum and asked:
"Fourth brother, can I eat this?"
Wei Zhongxian also saw on the side that the master was really good to his younger brother, and of course he also knew why the fifth prince was so careful.
"Fifth prince, you can rest assured to eat boldly, the more you eat, the happier my master will be, master, the slave went outside to watch, Mr. came, the slave coughed."
Guo Zongxun also reacted, this is the Lishu Hall, where Mr. teaches, Mr. is an old-fashioned man, and he has the copper ring ruler given to him by Guo Rong in his hand.
Let's take copying the "Tao Te Ching" as an example, after the hunt, Guo Rong returned to the palace, and handed over the matter of supervising Guo Zongxun's copying of the scriptures to the old master.
"Wei Companion, go quickly, if Mr. comes, find a way to hold him down for a while, and we can clean it up, fifth brother, you eat quickly, take your hands, don't drop the scum on the ground, let Mr. find out that we are both going to be beaten."
Guo Zongrang saw that the fourth brother was so enthusiastic, and gradually relaxed his nervousness, and the most important thing is that this little snack is too tempting.
Wei Zhongxian stood in the corridor and waited for a long time, but saw Prime Minister Fan Zhen and Wang Pu coming together.
What's wrong with the two prime ministers today, the early dynasty is over, didn't the emperor leave a few important ministers to continue the discussion?
Wei Zhongxian didn't dare to delay, and quickly coughed a few times, and then greeted Fan Zhen and Wang Pu.
"Our family has seen Lord Fan and Lord Wang, I don't know why the two prime ministers came to the Rite Hall today?"
Guo Zongxun and Guo Zonglet the two brothers were eating happily, Guo Zongxun didn't want to eat it, but seeing Guo Zongrang eating with relish, he was greedy for a while, and he also ate a lot, and suddenly heard Wei Zhongxian coughing violently outside, and then said loudly What are the two prime ministers......
"Hurry up, fifth brother, hurry up and clean up, these two prime ministers are only afraid that they are even more powerful than the old master, cough cough, swallow it first, don't choke ......"
Say don't choke, Guo Zongrang didn't choke, Guo Zongxun spoke too quickly, and he choked as a result.
Finally swallowed the dry dim sum, and the dim sum box was hidden, Guo Zongxun and Guo Zonglet sat behind their respective desks in a regular manner, and Guo Zongxun actually began to hiccup.
And it's the kind that can't stop, and hiccups when you don't speak.
At this time, Wei Zhongxian accompanied Fan Zhen and Wang Pu to walk in, and in Fan Zhen's hand, he was carrying a copper ring ruler that was bright and yellow, orange, and orange, which frightened Guo Zongxun and hiccuped even more.
When the prince sees the prime minister, as long as he is not a teacher and student, he also wants the prime minister to salute the prince first.
"The old minister Fan Qian, I have seen the two princes."
"The old minister Wang Pu has seen two princes."
Guo Zongrang didn't dare to answer, his mother didn't teach him these etiquettes, not because Li Shunchang didn't want to teach him, but because she didn't understand it herself.
As a result, Guo Zong was nervous, and actually stood up and knelt on the ground Bang Bang kowtowed to the two prime ministers three times, the mother concubine said, it is always right to salute when you see more people, and when you see the older ones, especially those with long beards, they must be elders, and you must kowtow when you meet the elders.
Guo Zongxun hiccups on the side, arching his hands at Fan Zhen and Wang Pu but couldn't speak, seeing Guo Zongrang actually kneeling and kowtowing to the two prime ministers, he said in his heart, the first afternoon is very smooth, why did he do it like this as soon as he saw these two prime ministers?
Fan Zhen, Wang Pu, and another one named Wei Renpu, after the prince ascended the throne, you are the three auxiliary ministers, and you should have been the minister of my humerus in the Great Zhou.
However, Zhao Kuangyin's dog thief Chen Qiao mutinied in a yellow robe, and Shi Shouxin secretly opened the gate of Kaifeng City to welcome Zhao Kuangyin into Kaifeng......
