Chapter 30 State affairs are more important than family affairs
"State affairs are more important than family affairs, Zhen Guogong has been in government for so many years, and he still doesn't understand such a simple truth?"
However, it was the Ministry of Rites Shangshu who rushed to speak in front of Xie Yuchen, accusing Ye Pingzhang of only knowing the love of his children in the family, but putting aside national affairs.
Ye Pingzhang can give birth to a daughter with a strong temperament like Ye Hao, how can he be willing to show weakness?
He immediately retorted: "What is Sun Shangshu talking about, since I, Ye Pingzhang, raised food and grass and military salaries, and set the day to go to the battle, I stayed in the martial arts arena all day to train soldiers, how can I only focus on family affairs and not state affairs?" β
After finishing speaking, a touch of iron-clad tenderness flashed in his deep but somewhat cloudy eyes, because he said: "Although my daughter Ye Hao entered the palace as a concubine, her blood friendship with her parents and brothers continued, and the minister wanted her to go home once before leading the army to go on the expedition, it is really not a bad invitation, and please give me your grace!" β
He spoke eloquently and loudly.
The Ministry of Rites, who was aggressive just now, was also a little timid and retreated at the moment.
In fact, if it was really what Ye Pingzhang said, Xie Yuchen really didn't think it was excessive.
Ye Hao already held the palace token in her hand, but it was not very honorable to go home from the palace without permission.
As long as the emperor says a word, she can put on the guard of honor, sit in a sedan chair, and go home to save her relatives openly.
But......
If Ye Pingzhang asked Ye Hao to go home, it was to teach her how to deal with herself and Jingxian when she came back, and the latter would talk about some rumors heard in the palace, it would be hard to guarantee that it would not exacerbate Ye Pingzhang's rebellious heart.
"I still need to think about it."
Xie Yuchen replied ambiguously.
"Your Majesty, it's just half a day home, a day at most! Why bother thinking about it? β
In the end, the former emperor once relied on very old ministers, although in the face of the high-ranking county lord, Ye Pingzhang was still neither humble nor arrogant.
Seeing that Xie Yuchen opened his mouth, as if he was about to agree, Mrs. Zhao suddenly cleared his throat and coughed.
In an instant, the emperor was like an initiation.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "The concubine has only been in the palace for one month, and according to the rules of my court, the queen will enter the palace in three months before she can save her relatives." Now that Ye Guifei is so special and uncompliant, I am afraid that it is easy to fall into the mouth. β
"Moreover," Xie Yuchen said, Xie Yuchen changed his words, and said: "Ye Guifei is now the time to cultivate a relationship with me, twelve hours a day is too little, how can you save your relatives at this time and delay for half a day?" β
If these words were heard by people who didn't know why, they would think that the emperor was really reluctant to make an excuse for Ye Guifei.
The emperor spoke, and the civil officials who formed a party with Zhao Taifu and began to gossip about Ye Pingzhang's request.
"So, sir...... Quit. β
What else can you do at this time?
Ye Pingzhang only felt a mouthful of heat rushing into his throat, but he gritted his teeth and escaped such a sentence, and then bowed back and went between the military attachΓ©s.
Seeing this, Mrs. Zhao on the other side glanced at them coldly.
- The last time he was summoned by the emperor to the palace for deliberations, he passed by Chaohua Palace and met his daughter Jingxian.
However, for Mrs. Zhao, her son Zhao Wenzheng is the pearl of the family. As for this daughter, as long as she stays in the palace in peace and finds a way to tie the emperor's heart, it is the best.
"Your Majesty, the minister wants to mention the flood in the south, and the disaster relief money ......"
"Recently, the treasury has not been very full, but the fact of disaster relief is important, and it is better to do it sooner rather than later. Later, the Taifu counted the amount of money and food needed for disaster relief, reported it to the household department, and allocated funds for disaster relief as soon as possible. β
"Obey." Good web
Subsequently, everyone in the court began to discuss other matters one after another, and soon drowned out the small waves that Ye Pingzhang's family affairs set off.
Despite this, Ye Zhen, who was far away in Chaohua Palace, still heard the news that night.
"The little eunuchs who serve in front of and behind the palace are really gossipy, and the news spreads so fast." Ye Hao did not question the authenticity of this news, with her understanding of Xie Yuchen, he was such an excessive person.
As she spoke, she swallowed a few more melon seeds.
These melon seeds were taken out of the chilled watermelon rewarded by Xie Yuchen a few days ago, fried over high heat in the small kitchen, and then sprinkled with salt, which is very suitable for relieving boredom when bored.
Ah Ruan was not as calm as Ye Hao, she couldn't help but be indignant: "I have long heard that Xian Zhaoyi will go home to visit relatives not long after entering the palace, why is it the turn of Miss who is unwilling to do everything, and all kinds of rules have come out!" β
"So, do you still think Xie Yuchen will have half affection for me?"
asked lightly, the light in Ye Hao's eyes flowed.
But she heard Ah Ruan aggrieved for her: "But the master is so old, and he pleaded with the emperor in the court like that, but in exchange for such a result." Whether the emperor has affection for Niangniang or not, this is inevitably too much! β
"Excessive is excessive,"
Ye Hao nodded slowly, but after a while, she suddenly smiled:
"But you don't have to feel sorry for it, and you don't have to worry about your father. Believe me, in a few days, Xie Yuchen will cry and shout to send me back to save my relatives! β
Ah Ruan really believed that his young lady would have such a hard wrist.
It's just that...... She was really curious about what the young lady was going to do!
"I won't tell you yet, you'll know tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
After that, the last melon seed on the plate was also eaten by Ye Hao. She stood up, clapped her hands, walked to the window, and looked in the direction of the Qianqing Palaceβ
Xie Yuchen, I see that you haven't been on the house for three days, it's time for you to recall the fear of being dominated by me Ye Hao!
At noon that day, Xie Yuchen was worried that Ye Hao would attack himself after knowing what happened at noon, so he didn't go to Chaohua Palace to eat for the first time.
When he had lunch in the Qianqing Palace, he was still faintly worried that Ye Hao would come to make trouble after hearing that she was not allowed to go home to save her relatives.
Who knew that when I waited until the willows on the moon, there was no movement on the Chaohua Palace.
"Why didn't Concubine Ye come to me for trouble......
"Your Majesty," Wang Dafu didn't hear clearly, and said suspiciously: "What did you say?" β
"No, nothing." Xie Yuchen waved his hand, how could Wang Dafu know that he was waiting for Ye Hao to come to settle accounts with him?
He thought about it for a while, and felt that if he didn't understand this time, he was afraid that he would be restless all the time.
So he stood up and said to Wang Dafu: "I just had dinner, and now I want to consume food, you can go with me to Chaohua Palace to have a look." β
"Chao, Chaohua Palace?" Wang Dafu was a little incredulous for a while.
It stands to reason that at noon, he just rejected Zhenguogong's request to see his daughter, and now it should be too late to hide from the concubine, why does the emperor have to put his neck on the blade?
Constantly slandering in his heart, Wang Dafu still listened to Xie Yuchen's order and walked to Chaohua Palace with him.
"Ah Ruan, this time you sing Tsing Yi, I will sing Danjiao, let this palace show you what it means to be charming!"
As soon as he entered the temple gate, he listened to the excitement.
