The fireworks dispersed, the sky was already cloudy, the hundred officials entered the palace through the door, and entered the hall of the usual court with the sound of whips, and waited for about a cup of tea, and heard Yuansheng's rough voice outside the hall.

Then I saw Lao Zhu and Ma Dajia entering hand in hand, Zhu Biao followed behind the two, and the hundred officials immediately knelt and bowed their heads. Lao Zhu pulled Ma Dajia and sat on the dragon chair along the Danqi, and Ma Dajia sat down on the chair next to him.

Zhu Biao went to the front of Li Shanchang and greeted the hundred officials together, the old Zhu on the Dan Qi got up with a smile, and his voice was rarely softer than usual, "Today I am not the protagonist of the queen, I have been married to the queen for many years, the queen takes care of the housework for me to have children, and I am even more running around in times of crisis, the queen is like a turnip, bean porridge and wheat rice, and the emperor's industry is indispensable to the assistance of all ministers, and there is also the queen's hard work......"

Lao Zhu's evaluation is not high, and it is clear that Ma Dajia is not only his wife but also his business partner, but Lao Zhu put gold on Ma Dajia's face, Ma Dajia is indeed his staunchest supporter, without Ma Dajia, he may have died under the knife of Guo Zixing's father and son, or starved to death in prison.

"It has been four years since I ascended to the top of the throne, and the queen is the mother of the country, and she is still working hard for me, the prince, and the princess, and she has been with the stove and spinning wheel all day long, and she has never slacked off for a day. Today is the Queen's 10th birthday, and I invite the Queen to the palace with me, just so that the mother of a nation should be honored. ”

Li Shanchang came out of the class and said: "Speaking of the queen's mother's benevolence and hard work, except for the emperor, the old ministers know the most. In the past, when the emperor was first established, His Majesty led the army to fight outside, and the ministers and mothers stuck to the inside. The generals were thrilling in the front, and I waited in the rear, guarding a group of old and weak women and children, who lacked food and clothing, and were surrounded by wolves.

No grain Niang Niang cut down on food and raised grain and grass for the soldiers to eat more, the mother in distress risked the arrow stone to boost morale, His Majesty had praised Weichen as Xiao He of the Han Dynasty, but the old minister knew in his heart, the name of Xiao He was earned by Niangniang to help Weichen......"

Ma Du muttered in his heart, "I didn't expect Lao Li to be quite good at sycophancy." ”

But when he turned his head sideways, he saw that Mu Ying's eyes were slightly red, and he knew that Lao Li might really have feelings, Mu Ying had been by Ma Dajia's side since he was a child, and he didn't join the army until he was seventeen years old, and he accompanied Ma Dajia to witness the most difficult years.

“…… Niangniang was honored in the world, the name of the virtuous can be compared with the previous dynasties, there is a Niangniang sitting in the middle palace is the blessing of the harem and the people, and now the Niangniang Santa Lao Chen wishes the Niangniang phoenix to be healthy and rich for a thousand years! ”

After Li Shanchang finished speaking, he bowed down and fell to the ground, and the ministers followed closely and shouted in unison, "I wish Niangniang and Feng Niang are healthy and prosperous!" ”

"All the ministers are flat!" The voice of Ma Dajia sounded above the Danqi, with a little excitement and relief in the voice, although she was indifferent to fame and fortune, but who didn't want affirmation and recognition, for example, Ma Du also hoped that Lao Zhu and the old man of the academy would stop spitting at him.

"Li Xiang has an overreputation, this palace is just an ordinary woman, and she does what a woman should do, and she doesn't dare to compare it with the virtuous queens of the past dynasties." Ma Dajia was slightly blessed, "Thank you for coming to congratulate the birthday of this palace, I hope you can be honest and self-disciplined in the future, have the courage to do things, and share the worries of the emperor and the people!" ”

"Listen to the mother's teachings!"

Ma Dajia looked at the sky outside, "It's not early, the emperor should deal with government affairs quickly, the concubines have returned to the harem first, where are the wives waiting." ”

"Hehe......" Lao Zhu patted her hand, "Today is your birthday, don't cook anymore, let the people below do it." ”

"The concubine knows!"

Ma Dajia got up and Yuan Sheng carried her out of the Danqi, and then went out of the hall through the back door, Zhu Biao also confessed to Lao Zhu and went with him, as for Ma Du, he was not qualified to leave early.

Teacher Zhu suddenly changed his face and began to check his homework after his wife and children left, and the civil officials trembled, who knew whose head Lao Zhu's would burn. The military generals and nobles were watching the excitement easily, after all, the frontier was frequently reported, and they were qualified to watch the excitement.

Lao Zhu's Tianwei became more and more heavy, and the entire court discussion was almost dominated by him alone, sitting on the Danqi and shouting angrily, but two officials were demoted in half an hour.

When he was about to retire from the dynasty, Li Shanchang once again went to the fold and asked the old man to return to his hometown to recuperate, Lao Zhu slapped the fold in his hand and frowned and said: "At the beginning of the dynasty, a hundred ruins are waiting to be revived, Li Gong is the humerus patriarch of my Ming Dynasty and the head of the hundred officials. ”

The water that was said was too much, and Li Shanchang didn't say a few words when the whole court meeting came down just now, and it didn't open well, and anyone would turn if the earth was less.

Li Shanchang pressed his waist and knelt on the ground with difficulty, "The old minister followed the emperor from Huaiyou to Yingtian, and watched the emperor lift a three-foot sword to help the world ascend the throne and ascend to the throne, and it has been nearly 20 years in the blink of an eye. Weichen's black hair is already gray, and his body is not as good as before, it is difficult to sit and lift a pen, and he doesn't know how much time he has to live, and he also asks the emperor to let Lao Chen Yeluo return to his roots, and don't want to die in a foreign country. ”

Although the herniated disc in the waist is very painful, but it really can't die, Lao Li is more and more energetic after resigning, and after nearly 20 years, he is still in good health, and he doesn't know if he regrets resigning so early, and in the end Lao Zhu gave him a ride.

Lao Zhu sighed and said: "In this case, I will not force you to stay, and the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry will immediately build a mansion for the Korean Duke in Fengyang......"

Ma Du subconsciously looked at Hu Weiyong, who was standing at the head of the civil officials at the moment, and found that there was an unconcealable smile on the corner of his mouth, Hu Weiyong's era began!

Li Shanchang resigned, even if he moved to Fengyang, but he still had a lot of influence in the imperial court, there would be no such thing as people going to tea and cool, as soon as he retreated, the Manchu civil and military forces surrounded him to congratulate him on his successful retirement, and only he had the ability to make the Manchu civil and military screwed together.

Mu Ying has always respected Li Shanchang very much, squeezed forward and said a few words to him before withdrawing, and said to Ma Du: "I asked clearly, Li Gong will not return to Zhongdu until half a month, and you and I will see him off together at that time." ”

"Good!" Ma Du nodded, and then pulled Mu Ying to the harem.

"If you can cure Gong Li's illness, maybe he is willing to go to Fangshan to recuperate, and by the way, he can even teach in the academy."

If it weren't for the unbearable illness, Lao Li would not have resigned, his desire for power was too heavy, and after he recovered from his illness, he had been influencing the court through Hu Weiyong's hand. Not to mention that Lao Li doesn't look down on the academy, even if he really goes to Madu, he will stop him, he doesn't want the academy to become another court.

Ma Du shook his head and said, "Gong Li won't go to the academy, and I can't cure his illness." ”
