No one expected that this new emperor, who grew up alone in a deserted garden, not only did he not be grateful to Prime Minister Wu Cheng and others who helped him ascend the throne after ascending the throne, but instead showed unusual strength.

Even better than his decisive father.

Everyone thought that he was originally just a lost dog, but he didn't expect that he showed his fangs on the first day of his ascension to the throne, and he turned out to be a ruthless wolf cub, not afraid of fighting, let alone dying!

Wu Chengxiang and the others did not try to fight back, but after a round or two, they were timid.

It is said that barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes, but Prime Minister Wu never expected that he himself was the one who "wore shoes".

The little emperor is young, without a father, without a mother, without a wife and without children, and it is the age when his blood is boiling and reckless, and he regards imperial power and wealth as dung, and he can give up everything; And these old ministers in the DPRK and China can't do it, each of them is a big family behind them, and the ups and downs of officialdom are even related to the honor and disgrace and survival of a clan and a surname, and they don't dare to put it on the gambling table at all.

After a few rounds of confrontation, the funeral of the first emperor has not yet been completed, and the direction of the wind in the court is already very clear. Prime Minister Wu Cheng and the others could only secretly hate themselves for looking away, while swallowing their anger and waiting for the next opportunity to fight back.

Unexpectedly, before the opportunity arrived, the new emperor announced an incredible decision at the court meeting: he wanted to rebuild the temple for the imperial family of the previous dynasty.

And this decision is clearly not the whim of the teenager. The ministers argued in the court for a morning, and after leaving the palace, they learned that Menxia Province had bypassed the prime minister and Zhongshu Province, which was controlled by the prime minister, and directly sent the edict.

In the edict, although the tone of "there is a way to cut down no way" has not changed, it is reiterated between the lines that it is clear that the king of the Chu clan of the previous dynasty was benevolent and loved the people like a son, and it was not because the king lost his morality that he had fallen to the point of destroying the country, but because the court had accumulated many shortcomings, and the king had the intention to reform but was unable to do so, so he had to apologize for his crimes, and entrusted this splendid country and the world to the people who came after.

In addition, the edict also mentioned that the current dynasty was not an enemy of the Chu dynasty, but inherited the legacy of the Chu dynasty for the well-being of the people of the world, so in addition to the imperial court to rebuild the temple, it was also forbidden to set up private sacrifices to commemorate the previous dynasty.

When Prime Minister Wu heard what the little maid said, he was angry, turned around and turned back to the palace.

Shen Yuli was taking a break in Qixiang Palace, and when he saw Prime Minister Wu coming, he showed a clear smile: "Is there anything else that Prime Minister Wu forgot to say?" ”

"Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Wu threw his sleeves crackling, "Do you know what the consequences of doing this are?" Yes, now you are the emperor, but the emperor is not like this! ”

"Wu Xiang, you are wrong." Shen Yuli shook his head, "I am the emperor, what I am like, what the emperor is like." ”

"You!" Prime Minister Wu Cheng glared angrily.

Shen Yuli added: "Except for me, no one can teach me how to be an emperor." ”

Prime Minister Wu Cheng was so angry that he was a little timid when he saw the long knife in Yu Linwei's hand next to him, so he had to suppress his anger and said in a deep voice: "You are the emperor, so you can naturally do whatever you want." But Your Majesty, governing the country is not child's play! Do you think that if this edict is issued, the people of the world will praise you for your kindness? They won't! They have been obsessed with the previous dynasty, and now that you have allowed folk sacrifices, in the long run, the people of the Chu family will become the gods in the hearts of the people! Coupled with the father's hand-on-the-son, son-son-grandchildren's remembrance, storytellers, singers, and opera singers rendered layer by layer, where can you still have a place in the hearts of the people! ”

"They will remember it," Shen Yuli stood up, "If the people of the world are still remembering the Chu family ten years later, it can only prove that our Shen family is incompetent!" Since we are incompetent, why can't the people remember the Chu family? ”

"You—naïve!" Prime Minister Wu was so angry that he threw his sleeves around the hall twice and sat down.

Shen Yuli looked down at him, lowered his voice and said, "Wu Xiang, it is better to let the Chu family become the gods in the hearts of the people than to let them become ghosts in the palace. ”

Prime Minister Wu raised his head suddenly, his face turned a little pale: "You, what are you talking about?" The son, the son is silent......"

"Zi is silent, and the strange force is confused." Shen Yuli finished his words for him, and said: "Your Prime Minister Wu is a protégé of a saint, and I don't want to mention these ghosts and gods, and I am not reluctant. In this case, I ask Wu Xiang to stay in the palace tonight to keep a watch for his father, and we will discuss this matter tomorrow, how about it? ”

Prime Minister Wu Cheng did not believe in ghosts and gods in the past, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but shudder.

He suddenly remembered the bizarre illnesses of those Taoist priests, and remembered that the first emperor was in the prime of his life, but he suddenly fell ill and died...... Somehow, he was a little afraid of the "strange power and chaos" in Shen Yuli's mouth.

I was afraid in my heart, and my momentum couldn't help but weaken.

"Your Majesty," he slowed his tone, "Wei Chen knows that you have been studying with Zhao Xue recently, and your heart is full of the words of a sage, and you are a little unaccustomed to the actions of the first emperor. However, the way to be a king is not only to rely on 'benevolence', but also on 'technique'! Like you, the reader may initially praise you for being 'open-minded', but it won't be long before this praise will pass, and the world will only remember the murder of the first emperor, and the reader will turn to scold you for being 'unfilial', you ...... All kinds of harm and no good! ”

Shen Yuli thought about it seriously and nodded: "Yes, if I only do this one thing, it will indeed do all kinds of harm and no benefit." ”

"But," he looked out the door with a slight smile, "since I am the Son of Heaven, how can I do only this one thing!" I will let the world know that my father and emperor have taken away the Chu family's country, not for the sake of wealth and glory, let alone for the sake of the common people, but that the Shen family can indeed do better than the Chu family! ”

Prime Minister Wu looked up at him, only to see the young man's jaw angle raised in a haughty arc, with a smile on his lips and light in his eyes.

Juvenile.

Ha, boy!

At this moment, Prime Minister Wu was shocked to realize that he was old.

He is a bad old man, so he only thinks about power and glory, and is afraid of wolves and tigers before doing something, for fear that he will get into trouble if he is not careful.

If he is also a young man, he may also like this young king: if the previous generation did something wrong, this generation can make up for it one by one; Don't be afraid of trouble, how much trouble there is, it's all solved.

The future of young people is still very long, and life will always get better day by day.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Prime Minister Wu Cheng said in a dumb voice, "So the minister asks Your Majesty to set up an additional city patrol department to patrol the major streets of Kyoto, and once you find that the people's hearts have changed, you can report it to the imperial court in time, so as not to let the situation get out of control." ”

"Okay." Shen Yuli smiled, "It's really the old man who is thoughtful, that's how it should be!" ”

Prime Minister Wu hadn't been praised for many days, and when he suddenly heard such a sentence, he was almost so excited that he burst into tears.

In addition to being excited, the old man finally remembered his duty as a minister, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, seeing that it is almost the lunar month, and in two or three months it will be the Spring Festival, and the candidates for the main and deputy examinations should have been decided." ”

Shen Yuli nodded: "Not bad." I don't read much, and I don't know much about the character and knowledge of the lords in the court, so I have to worry about this matter. ”

Prime Minister Wu hurriedly responded, wiped the corners of his eyes, and grinned: "Your Majesty, I heard that there are already children in the major inns in Kyoto, and many of them are young talents, and they want to come...... It's time for us old things to make room for the young, too! ”

"Don't!" Huan Lin turned out from behind the screen and shouted: "Prime Minister Wu, be sober!" Your son has only achieved five grades, and your grandson has not yet been admitted to the emperor's list, so you are busy making room for young people, and the glory and wealth of your Wu family may be in vain! ”

Prime Minister Wu was startled by her at first, and after listening to her shouting, he felt both scared and ashamed, and he wanted to laugh a little, and his mood was suddenly very complicated.

The hall was silent for a moment, and Prime Minister Wu finally came back to his senses, and shouted in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is receiving foreign ministers to discuss the government, and you are a woman hiding behind the screen and eavesdropping, what kind of system!" ”

"Hey, you can't reverse black and white!" Huan Lin crossed his waist and shouted with him, "Your Majesty is obviously flirting with me, you old man have to run in and say what about the government, do you know how to be interesting?" ”

"You!" Prime Minister Wu's face suddenly darkened, and he would only shout "What kind of system, what kind of system!" ”

He knew that this young emperor was ridiculous and ignorant in his bones! What a teenager is high-spirited and high-spirited, it is all an illusion, it is all an illusion!

Give the world to this kind of young man who is full of petty love, that is the end! The court must be an old man, and he will be in charge of Qiankun for twenty years!

Prime Minister Wu didn't dare to scold in his mouth, but he didn't stop scolding in his heart, and said "retirement" to Shen Yuli indiscriminately and left with his sleeves thrown up.

Watching him walk away around the forest, he finally couldn't help laughing, jumping and jumping in the hall.

"Look at that old man," she pointed to Prime Minister Wu's back to show Shen Yuli, "and the sleeves are about to fly!" Alas, I really can't get used to seeing his excited and loyal face, he still has to blow his beard and stare at him to look good! ”

Shen Yuli didn't respond, didn't laugh, just looked at her steadily.

Huan Lin was suddenly a little nervous, and he smiled busily, and asked tentatively, "You...... Angry? Blame me for not bullying your minister? ”

Shen Yuli shook his head, but still didn't speak.

Huan Lin became even more nervous, and was busy squatting down in front of him, holding his legs: "Hey, what's wrong with you?" You can't kill me, do you? I've heard people say that emperors are moody......"

"You," Shen Yuli suddenly pressed her hand, "Just now you told Prime Minister Wu Cheng 'flirting'?" I haven't seen flirting yet, so I'd like to ask for advice. ”

Huanlin froze.

She seemed to feel that this majesty was a little shameless.

I didn't expect that the shameless one was still to come.

While she was stunned, Shen Yuli suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled it gently, and his right hand skillfully hooked her waist and lifted it up, and Huan Lin, who was originally squatting, got up dizzy and sat on his lap in a daze.

The tip of his nose pressed against his chin, so close that he could feel the touch of the fluff.

Huan Lin's face burned red.

She didn't know what was wrong, it was common to sleep in the same bed, and there were times when she was closer, but she was not so ashamed and embarrassed at any time as she was now, and she couldn't wait to find a sparrow nest to get into it immediately.

"Hey!" She hurriedly pushed Shen Yuli's face away, shrunk herself back, and struggled to get up: "Shen Yuli, you can't bully me!" ”

Shen Yuli wrapped his arms around her waist and resolutely refused: "You can't beat a rake, right?" It's clear that you are bullying me! ”

Huan Lin was stunned: "When did I bully you?" You are now the emperor, who would dare to bully you? I'm not stupid, and I don't want to be made into a roasted sparrow! ”

"But you're bullying me," Shen Yuli looked serious, "Look, now that the whole world knows that you are my person, I haven't done anything!" I bear this false name and suffer such a big grievance, isn't this you bullying me? ”

Huan Lin was confused: "What do you mean by 'doing nothing'?" What do you want? ”

She really didn't understand, so her face was innocent and curious.

It was Shen Yuli's turn to blush. He had always known that this little sparrow had no heart and no lungs and was not ashamed, and he thought that he could say anything to his face, but he didn't expect that it would be like that at all.

He wanted to speak straight, or simply start without speaking...... But why does this scene look so much like he's bullying a child?!

Shen Yuli reluctantly let go of his hand, patted his forehead, and watched the little sparrow jump out of his arms.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Huanlin didn't run far, and immediately turned back, looking at him suspiciously and worriedly: "You are weird today!" Is it sick? Shall I call the Imperial Doctor for you? ”

"No, no." Shen Yuli rubbed his eyebrows, "Let's talk about it in the evening!" ”

"Oh." Huan Lin agreed inexplicably, and immediately thought of something else: "How are the preparations for the superfluous ritual for the great beauties?" I've got to see them tonight, and I'm still a few days away from getting it done, but I can't have another moth at this time!" ”

"What are you seeing them for?" Shen Yuli's face immediately turned unpleasant, "Didn't you say that they treated you badly and were going to kill you at every turn?" ”

"yes!" Huan Lin had a bitter face, "So I'm going to see them!" If I am good, they will be kind, and if I always hide from you, they will be bad behind your back! Now I see that they are going to be bad again, and I have to reason with them! You even sent the edict, if they still don't believe you, I think they can only ask the gods to come down to earth to make them disappear! ”

She seemed to be very reasonable, but Shen Yuli's brows became tighter and tighter, and he sighed and shook his head, and it took a long time before he asked again: "You can't change the day?" ”

"Isn't it as fast as possible?" Huan Lin was helpless, "Have you noticed that the illness of the little eunuchs two days ago has not recovered, and the wood is a little wilted?" When those ghosts are angry, they will affect the living, and may even affect the luck of the entire Miyagi, I have to appease them! ”

Shen Yuli nodded, still sighing.

Huan Lin was even more helpless: "What's the matter with you today?" What can't you say if you want to speak and stop for a while, and sigh for a while? Do you think being an emperor is tiring? Are you too tired to do it? ”

"Don't say stupid things," Shen Yuli sighed and squeezed her hand, "It's not like we can do whatever we want. ”

Huanlin nodded in a daze, and Shen Yuli took her hand and went out: "Come with me, I heard that the plum blossoms are blooming." ”

The little eunuch at the door hurriedly bowed down to greet him. The battle when the emperor went out was not small, and Huan Lin frowned a little uncomfortably.

Although sparrows are not afraid of people, they actually don't like a lot of people to follow, and it's not convenient to talk.

Fortunately, when it came to Meilin, Shen Yuli asked the minions to retreat, and only sat in the warm pavilion with the two of them, ordered someone to put refreshments, and sighed: "I have been busy with my father's funeral these days, and I rarely have time to accompany you, will you be bored?" ”

"I'm bored," said Huan Lin sullenly, "didn't you always come like this in the previous years?" Now it's ...... There are always ghosts to make noise when you are away, today it is a hanged ghost and tomorrow it is a decapitated ghost, not to mention boring, I am shocked every day, and I am almost scared to insomnia! ”

Shen Yuli sighed again when he heard this, and said, "In two days, my father and emperor will enter the mausoleum, and then solve the ghost matter, and we will be able to clean up a little." ”

Huan Lin nodded, his attention already drawn to the new style of dim sum on the table.

Shen Yuli pushed the dim sum plate in front of her and asked, "Have you ever thought about going outside the palace to have a look?" ”

Huan Lin was stunned for a moment, raised his head, and looked frightened: "You want to drive me away?" Why? Because I'm a youkai? ”

"No," Shen Yuli hurriedly shook his head, "I mean, if you follow me in the future, you may not be able to leave the palace for the rest of your life." When you are trapped in this small world, will you regret it? ”

Huan Lin laboriously swallowed a whole piece of dim sum and asked rhetorically, "Why regret it?" I don't know what it's like outside the palace, and I don't have to regret it! Besides, I'm a sparrow, not a Dapeng bird, what do I want to do with such a big world? ”

Shen Yuli didn't wait for her to finish laughing: "Since you say so, I'm relieved." ”

What is he relieved about? Huanlin didn't understand.

Shen Yuli didn't explain to her, just leaned back in the chair and looked at her, smiling idly.

Huan Lin's thick face was stunned and he was a little hot when he saw it. She didn't even bother to eat snacks, and hurriedly covered her face with her hands.

Shen Yuli looked interesting, quietly got up and sat down beside her, and encircled her in his arms from behind.

"What are you doing?!" Huan Lin shivered in fright and was busy hiding.

Shen Yuli took the opportunity to hug her tighter, and whispered in her ear: "Didn't they all agree to follow me?" What else to hide? ”

"You're so weird!" Huan Lin tried to turn around and avoid him, angry: "Didn't I follow you all the time?" You weren't ...... that way before. That's a lot of hands! ”

Shen Yuli never took advantage of what he wanted, and was a little disappointed, so he had to retreat and rest his chin on her shoulder, deliberately lowered his voice and pretended to be aggrieved: "I used to think that you were still young, and it didn't hurt to think that it would be okay to wait for you for two years, but now it seems that you will tease people, it must be not small!" ”

"What do you mean by 'flirting'?" Huan Lin was frightened, "When did I tease you?!" ”

Shen Yuli continued to pretend to be aggrieved and refused to answer, only rubbed on her shoulders very schemingly, and by the way, he wrapped his hands around her waist and tightened them in his arms.

Huan Lin felt that this posture was very awkward, and he gritted his teeth angrily: "I think you just went crazy suddenly!" It's weird! You let me go! ”

"Don't let it go!" Shen Yuli made up his mind to play hooligan today, "Unless you promise not to see any big beauties tonight, stay at home with me!" ”

"That's ......" Huan Lin felt that this proposal was very inappropriate.

"Just one day!" Shen Yuli deliberately awkwardly pressed against the table to make her unable to move, half coaxing and half pleading: "I've seen the days with the Taibu Department, just today!" ”
