Chapter Twenty-Four: Come! Frontal rigidity
At dusk, the sun gradually went down, and a fire was lit in the East Palace.
"Your Highness, the craftsman you want has been found." Xiao Yuanzi shouted happily.
Li Teh happily walked out of the house, and when the three craftsmen saw the prince coming out, they hurriedly knelt down and said, "Knock on His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Xiao Yuanzi approached and whispered, "Your Highness, these three masters were specially selected by He Shilang after hearing about your request from the prince, and each of them has extraordinary skills. ”
After hearing this, Little smiled and said to the three people in front of him, "Very good, presumably He Shilang assigned you here, you should all have some outstanding points, hehe." ”
The three of them hurriedly shook their heads and said, "Your Highness is serious, and you dare not be ashamed of your humble position,"
Li Teh smiled and waved his hand, "I'm ashamed to try it, come, three masters, first help Bengong to see if the objects on this drawing may be made?" ”
After the three of them exchanged ideas around the drawing, one of them stood up and said, "Your Highness, you have this drawing...... It's a little sketchy and sloppy, and it can take a little time to get it right. ”
Li Te's face was not red and he said breathlessly, "Well, then this will be handed over to you, I will trouble you to make it as soon as possible these days, and in order to keep it secret, I will bother you to live here these days." ”
The three of them bowed down in unison and said, "Don't dare to be, the lowly rank will do their best!" ”
The next day, early in the morning, it was not yet dawn.
The bitter Li Teh was woken up by Xiao Yuanzi in his sleep, and he was reluctant to get up and leave the warm quilt, and looked at He Yue, who was also awakened, Li Teh stepped forward with a smile, kissed her forehead gently, gently touched her hair and said, "Concubine Ai, I'm going to the court, you can sleep again." ”
Closing the door, the sky outside was still dark and gloomy, the cold wind blew the newly shivering Li Te, Li Teh rubbed his hands vigorously, from time to time he sighed to keep warm, and said dissatisfiedly, "I finally know why there are so many faint gentlemen, I don't want to go to the morning qaq, it's me, I don't want to go up, it's sleepy and cold!" ”
Xiao Yuanzi on the side chuckled and said, "Your Highness, you must be Mingjun hee in the future." ”
Li Teh rolled his eyes and muttered to himself, "What's so good about being Mingjun, tired and tired." If I could, I would like to be a faint gentleman too! There are groups of beautiful women, you can do whatever you want, how happy you are. ”
On the way to the Xuanzheng Palace, Li Teh asked Xiao Yuanzi about the situation of all parties, seeing that it was almost there, Li Teh only knew that it was almost there, and instructed in a deep voice, "After going back, you and those craftsmen and masters said that the things in the palace are not in a hurry, the body is important, let them rest well, if something goes wrong, my father-in-law can't spare me." ”
"As for Dian Wei Zhanghan outside the palace, I am very relieved, I believe that they can do a good job, Xiao Yuanzi, thanks to you, I have saved the palace a lot of troubles, and the Japanese palace will take you to the riverside to fish, relax and relax hehe." Li Te said happily.
Xiao Yuanzi also said happily, "Thank you, Your Highness, doing things for Your Highness is not hard at all." ”
Soon, entering the hall, Li Teh looked at it, instantly confused, and suddenly remembered that he didn't know anyone, and the last time he drank the wedding wine, there was a polite official..., and now except for the bearded man standing in the front row, he basically can't call his name, it's very stiff!
Li Te lowered his head and quietly walked to his position, secretly glad that Xiao Yuanzi had informed him of his position in the Xuanzheng Hall when he was about to leave, otherwise he would be embarrassed, and said with a snicker, "Hey Xiao Yuanzi, I will add a chicken leg to lunch for you when I go back!" ”
Li Teben wanted to keep his head down, and secretly waited until the court, and he was fine, but he was afraid of something.
Ao Bai squinted his eyes and walked over, and shouted loudly, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you are also coming to the morning court, many days...... No, in your words, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince should have been seen for many years, I wonder if Your Highness still remembers Weichen? ”
The corners of Li Te's mouth twitched when he heard Ao Bai's shout, and he smiled and said, "I was just joking with Ao Shaobao before, even if Ao Shaobao is in another ten years, a hundred years!" Hongu also recognizes it. ”
The officials next to them were also attracted when they heard the shouts of Aobai, and they saw Li Teh arching their hands one by one, "Congratulations to Your Highness on your happy wedding." ”
Li Teh was embarrassed to deal with them one by one, and was worried about whether to use the stalk of amnesia caused by the last injury, when he heard a little eunuch coming out of the back of the palace shouting, "The emperor has arrived~"
Only then did all the officials return to their positions, and after Li Sheng sat on the throne, they all knelt down and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”
Li Sheng first glanced at the people in the court, and found the sullen Li Tecai and said with a smile: "Zhong Aiqing is flat." ”
Then a person in the front row walked forward slowly, and shouted with his hand, "Your Majesty, the courtiers have arrived, and you can start the government." ”
Li Sheng nodded, and then the little eunuch beside him shouted, "If there is something to do, there is nothing to retreat~"
"Minister, something to do, the recent dark tide in Kyoto, when the son of the Kyoto Prefecture Yin was murdered by gangsters in the street, and died after returning home, the minister's military department has recently felt that there is a shortage of manpower, and the silver is not enough, and I hope that the emperor will allocate funds." Ao Bai shouted loudly.
Li Sheng frowned after hearing this, looked at Li Te, and saw that Li Teh was also taken aback, and asked in a deep voice, "Prince, what do you think of this matter?" ”
"Erchen thinks what Lord Aobai said makes sense." Litt replied.
Ao Bai was taken aback, but he didn't expect Li Teh to agree, and asked suspiciously, "Oh? Your Highness thinks so too? ”
Li Teh smiled and said, "It's true that as Lord Ao said, it is to strengthen defense, but~, Lord Ao, your military department is only responsible for the training of recruits and patrols and inspections outside the palace, so you don't bother." ”
"Lord Ao, you just need to train the recruits well, pay attention to the safety of the palace, and don't let the assassins enter the harem like last time, do you say?" Li Tet sneered.
"Your Majesty, Weichen just felt that the palace guards were not enough, and only last time did the little thief frighten the emperor, so ......" Ao Bai replied in a deep voice.
Li Tet interrupted Aobai's words with a smile and asked, "Oh? Is this a problem of insufficient manpower, the guards of nearly 1,000 people can let a small thief break in unknowingly, Lord Ao, how many people do you think it takes to find and block those little thieves? ”
"Ten thousand? 50,000 people, is it enough! I'm afraid it's not a manpower problem in this palace, it won't be a deliberate effort for you to ask for more silver! Litt said with a smile.
After hearing this, Ao Bai's eyes widened, and he blew his beard and said angrily, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you ......"
Then Ao Bai still held back his anger and knelt down to "Please let the emperor know, the minister has no such intention." ”
Li Sheng said with a serious face, "Huh~ This matter has passed, Ao Shaobao is also an unintentional mistake, prince, you can't speculate and slander the minister without conclusive evidence, forget it this time, don't do it again next time." ”
Li Te's face was full of pain and said, "Erchen knows his mistakes." ”
Ao Bai also replied: "Thank you for your trust." ”
Li Sheng stared at Ao Bai with deep eyes and said, "Ao Aiqing, protecting the safety of the palace is the top priority, you don't have to think about other things all the time, there is no need to mention the assassination last time, but if it happens again next time, then I will no longer be spared, you know?" ”
Ao Bai lowered his head and gritted his teeth, glanced at Li Te, and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”
Li Te, on the other hand, thought with a nonchalant face, "I'm afraid of you, come, hurt each other, and wait for Lao Tzu's guards to come out, it will be your death, and you will be with this palace!" Hum. ”
