A person like Helan Zong is more suitable to be an idol in the hearts of the people, but not a subordinate of anyone, and he is also more suitable to be a friend of righteousness, but not a colleague who works together.

Although Emperor Dade is young, he also knows that Helan Sect can use it, but he can't reuse it, and he is a person who is too upright as an official, but he is ostracized everywhere. Today, he impeached the Marquis of Yingchuan in the main hall, regardless of whether the Marquis of Yingchuan had the circumstances mentioned or not, whether the circumstances were serious or not, and put everyone, including the emperor, in an embarrassing situation. If it weren't for Dushanbo's anger, I was afraid that the emperor himself would beat him and let him know what to say and what not to say.

Thinking of this, Emperor Dade sighed and smiled bitterly in his heart, it is much more difficult to be an emperor than to be a prince, and it is even more difficult to be a puppet emperor.

"Your Majesty, but it's hot, I'll ask someone to bring the ice basin, what do you think?" Eunuch Chunxi hurriedly asked with concern, this ice basin is a porcelain basin with ice cubes, every year tens of thousands of ice cubes will be stored in the cellar of the palace to provide the concubines of the palace to cool off in summer, this year's weather is particularly hot, and the ice cubes are used very quickly.

Emperor Dade thought for a while, shook his head, and said: "Go fishing in Yuehua Lake, I won't approve the recital today, it's all some sycophants, and in the future, these flakes will be blocked by the imperial study." The official doesn't think about how to govern the place, but only thinks about slapping the horse, how can he defend the country for me? ”

"Well, let's go and command."

Yuehua Lake is next to the Yangxin Palace, now is a good time to cool off, Emperor Dade let people prepare fishing rods and bait, find a cool place, sit by the lake and fish. The surrounding eunuchs didn't dare to disturb, and silently retreated to the side and stood down, only the eunuch Chunxi was silently eating his fish hook. Chunxi hurriedly asked a few little eunuchs to fan the emperor with fans, but when he saw Emperor Dade staring at the lake, he didn't know what he was thinking.

Chunxi shook his head, and sighed in his heart, he knew what Emperor Dade was thinking, he was thinking about how to regain power from Dushanbo, Zhang Kuan, and Wang Cheng, how to make the Senate obey his own arrangement, as an emperor, who doesn't want to hold power alone, who is willing to be a puppet.

Chunxi is twenty-five years old this year, he has been following Xuanyuan Zixiao as a personal eunuch since he was five years old, and now Xuanyuan Zixiao is the Great Emperor, but he still lets him be the personal eunuch. Emperor Dade did not let Chunxi be a palace eunuch or a deacon eunuch, not because he didn't want to promote him, but because Chunxi was still young and had no henchmen and followers in the palace, in order to avoid him being framed by others, he temporarily kept him by his side for a few years, and then promoted him to be other stewards after Chunxi had qualifications.

Chunxi also served the emperor conscientiously, never asked for anything from Emperor Dade, nor complained or spoke for anyone, which won the trust of Emperor Dade. At this moment, Emperor Dade was impetuous, how could he catch any fish, after fishing for a while, the fish ran away a few times, and he was so angry that he threw the fishing rod aside.

Chunxi toasted tea and said: "Your Majesty, you have to be patient when fishing, you have lost patience today." ”

Emperor Dade sighed and said: "It's me who made a mistake, but if you don't get angry today, tomorrow he will even dare to kill you in court, do you believe it or not?" ”

Chunxi knew that he was still angry with Uncle Dushan, so he smiled and said, "Uncle probably doesn't dare." ”

Emperor Dade said: "He doesn't dare now, but if he gets an inch further, he will dare." People's hearts are always peaceful, just like the greedy, no amount of stolen money can fill his greedy heart. ”

"Your Majesty has a point." Chunxi said busily.

Emperor Dade said: "This Zhang Xiaowu is a capable person, but this person is a thorn in the head and needs to continue to practice." ”

Chunxi smiled: "The emperor looks at people, and he is naturally extremely accurate. ”

Emperor Dade glared at him and reprimanded, "You will be a sycophant." ”

Chunxi smiled and said: "The villain doesn't need to know anything else, as long as you shoot your ass well, this life will be worth it." ”

Emperor Dade stroked his palms and laughed, and said, "You are really interesting, go and prepare the boat, and we will go fishing in the middle of the lake." ”

Chunxi hurriedly reminded: "Your Majesty, there have been showers these days. ”

"It's okay, it's okay!" Emperor Dade got up with a smile and asked people to prepare the ship. In the past, when he was the prince, he was often depressed because he was at a disadvantage in the battle with the prince, so he asked a master for advice, and the master taught him to go fishing in the river if his heart was not at peace, and then think carefully about the current situation to restore peace in his heart.

Emperor Xuanyuan Zixiao also did this in the subsequent life of the prince, he fought without fighting, made friends with literati and writers, was kind to others, supported righteousness and learning, and was greatly praised in the Shilin, and thus laid the mass foundation for the prince. When it comes to fishing, although Emperor Dade is not such a good player, he is not ambiguous, but he is really anxious today, so he thought of pan-lake fishing.

There are three kinds of imperial boats in Yuehua Lake, one is a huge river boat crossboat, this boat is ten zhang long and three zhang wide, can sail in the ocean of the big river, there is a water wheel as the power at the stern, a boat can take 300 sergeants, three hundred years ago it was used as the naval warship of the Holy Han Empire to sail on the Dragon River to break the south of the Yangtze River. After the founding of the Shenghan Empire, warships such as Jianglun Hengzhou became history, and the empire no longer had to spend huge sums of money to build such warships, so two were kept in Yuehua Lake. However, the river boat is too large and requires more than a dozen people and eight mules and horses to maneuver, which is not suitable for water fishing.

The second kind of boat is the ordinary sailboat, five zhang long and one zhang wide, in the past, Emperor Taiqian liked to drink and entertain important ministers on the sailboat, there was once a rumor that the seventh prince Xuanyuan Zi moved that Emperor Taiqian was pregnant with Zhang Guifei on the boat. Therefore, Emperor Dade also had taboos about sailing boats, and always felt that he would think of certain things when he took this sailboat.

The third type is the balsa boat, which is two feet long and three feet wide, and there is a dock shed on the boat to avoid the sun, and only one boatman is used, which is most suitable for fishing and leisure. In the past, Emperor Dade took this light boat to fish, and today is no exception, two people got on the boat, two other guards also got on the boat, and a boatman sailed to the center of the lake.

The surface of the lake is calm, but the temperature is slightly warmer, a few swallows skim the water, and some fish jump happily on the water. However, Chunxi looked at the weather, this kind of hot and humid weather made him a little breathless, even if he was boating on the lake, he was still uncomfortable. He looked down at Emperor Dade and saw that Emperor Dade had opened the fishing rod and was sitting on a chair with two ice bricks next to the chair, and there were several watermelons on the ice bricks. While eating watermelon, Emperor Dade was concentrating on fishing, so he had to hold his words in his heart, so as not to collide with the emperor.

The two guards and the boatmen did not dare to speak, so as not to disturb the fish, and waited quietly for the emperor to fish.
