Just when the Eighth Prince was shy, in the main hall of the palace.

The emperor looked at an old minister kneeling in front of him, and said, "Chen Yuyi, do you really want to leave like this?" Is it because the money I gave is too low? Or is there some other reason why you had to make this decision? If you haven't thought about it, I still want you to go home and think about it. ”

After speaking, the emperor glanced down at Chen Yuyi and began to be silent.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has thought of everything here. I have decided to hope that the emperor will not keep too much, the old minister is 80 years old this year, and he really can't stand the toss in the court. I also hope that the emperor will open up Long's grace and let Lao Chen return to his hometown to retire. ”

The old man kneeling in front of the emperor replied, and after saying that, the old man suddenly raised his sleeves and began to cry. While crying, he wiped the tears from his eyes.

"This emperor is over 80 years old this year, if I don't return to my hometown at this moment, maybe when the new emperor succeeds to the throne, I really won't be able to go back. Once a son of heaven and a courtier, the emperor really died one day, and I don't behead him here to show the public, even if it is a good result. ”

Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on Chen Yuyi's forehead. Don't say that he is just a minister of Shangshu now, even if he is the first assistant of the dynasty, if he does not resign now, it will be difficult to protect the whole body in the future!

The emperor looked at Chen Yuyi's appearance and worshiped the people, and today he can't keep this old minister who has served him for more than 30 years.

"There are not many people I can trust, this original death is dead, and the old man who has returned to his hometown has returned to his hometown. There weren't a few left, and he resigned at this time. I'm afraid that after my sons have won or lost, I will retire as a son of heaven and a courtier. It's okay, it's better to let this old courtier go. Maybe the two of us can drink and chat in the future, and we can have an old friend. ”

Thinking of these emperors, he couldn't help but bow his head, a little helpless.

"As an emperor, there should be no family affection, no friends. Because the stakes are too great! Even if you are a close friend, you will become a friend in the end, and in the end, it will become a relationship of interest, or you can say that you are estranged to the extreme. This is why it took him to compete for the throne in the first place, and he has worked hard for more than 40 years. So far, this is the result. ”

After thinking about this, the emperor lowered his head. After pondering for a while, he said to Chen Yuyi: "Are you sure you want to tell the old man to return to his hometown and return to Jinzhou, right?" I hereby allow you to go back to your hometown to retire, but I have a little request here. I hope if you have the leisure to come back and drink with me, you also know the hardships of being an emperor, right? Let them drink with me, I don't know how much poison will be in this glass. Can't you just not go? ”

After speaking, the emperor's eyes began to redden.

Chen Yuyi saw the emperor's reddened eyes, bowed his head and was silent for a while and said: "If you go back to the emperor, the fallen leaves will return to the roots, and the ministers will be old." Just like the autumn leaves in late autumn, it's time for the curtain to come to an end. As for the drinking that the emperor asks for here, please forgive the ministers for being old and frail, and they can no longer drink with the emperor as when they were young. ”

After speaking, Chen Yuyi kowtowed to the emperor three times. He walked out the door.

Chen Yuyi, who walked out of the door of the main hall, looked at the blue sky with white clouds. muttered in a low voice: "Finally free!" I can finally return to my roots, the decades of disturbance in the court. I've seen enough here, and I'll go to the household department to take the lead in dismissing the silver later, and then I'll go without a public stamp, so I'll give it up completely, and this promotion will become a commoner. It's time to go home and have some fun. ”

After saying that, he walked towards the palace gate, and when he got home, he began to pack his bags.

And Zhou Yucheng, the eighth prince who was sitting in a donkey cart at the gate of the city, looked at the sedan chair with diamonds on the top that had arrived in front of him, and looked at the beauty who slowly got off the cart. His little heart was throbbing, and his face was as red as a monkey's buttocks. It's still a kid after all!
