"I already know what you have done in Hanshan Temple, and Master Xinyin also praises you very much, very good, in my Xia Kingdom, is it ...... place where the monks of the Chu Kingdom show off their might." Emperor Xia quickly diverted the topic, but Chu Yun began to wander from the moment just now, and when he passed by the Bowen Hall just now, he didn't seem to see her.......

The palace is not a fun place, Yan Chuchu stood bored outside a palace, watching Chu Yun seriously give a lecture to a group of little princesses and little princes, she was even more uninterested, bored looking at the slowly moving white clouds in the distant sky.

There was a slight sound of footsteps in the corridor on the left, and she turned her head to meet the eyes of the young woman who was walking this way, and both of them were stunned.

------

------

Chu Yun walked out of the Bowen Hall and looked at the stone steps around him, a look of disappointment appeared on his face.

Compared with him, a group of little princesses and princes rushed out of the palace in a swarm, and everyone had an excited smile on their faces, especially King Jin, whose round body was eager to turn a few heels on the ground.

How could they not be happy, this is their last arithmetic lesson in the near future, and for a long time to come, they will never see the gentleman who will put their name on the palace wall, what could be more enjoyable~?

As for the schoolwork he left behind------ let them read books and learn arithmetic by themselves~?

Are you kidding~! If they can understand those heavenly books themselves, what else do they want Mr. to do~?

In short, for a period of time after that, you don't have to face those strange symbols anymore, and it's better to never see him again~!

Chu Yun stood outside the hall for a while, didn't see the person he wanted to see, and was slightly disappointed in his heart, but other than that, he always felt that something seemed to be missing, and it took him a while to realize that Yan Chuchu, this girl, was actually gone~!

The palace is not Cuiliuzhai, nor is it the Viscount's Mansion, but there will be a big incident if you break into it casually, Yan Chuchu, this girl is obviously not the kind of person who will be arrested when she encounters the palace guards, if this fights, it will be a big trouble~!

Fortunately, as soon as Chu Yun's thought emerged, he saw her and Li Yue walking over from the other direction.

"You're very good~." Yan Chuchu turned his head and glanced at Li Mingzhu, and said very seriously.

"You too~." Li Yue tidied up her cuffs, smiled and said.

Chu Yue looked at the two of them suspiciously, when did the two of them hook up~?

Could it be that I was giving a lecture just now~?

But when they were in Sujiang Mansion, Her Royal Highness the princess didn't come to the door less, and they never ......spoke at that time.

"What did you just do~?" Chu Yun looked at Yan Chu Chu suspiciously.

Yan Chuchu glanced at him slightly, obviously not meaning to talk.

At this time, Li Yue had already let go of a prince who rushed out of the hall happily, looked at Chu Yun, and asked with some puzzlement: "Li Bo said that they don't need to take arithmetic classes in the future, you let them learn arithmetic by themselves~?" ”

Chu Yun nodded, looking at the little fat man Jin Wang who was excited in the distance, the corners of his mouth hooked up a trace of arc, I really thought that I could completely let myself go without going to class~?

When he comes back next time, the little fat man will understand what naivety is~!

"Why~? How could they possibly learn to count on their own~? ”

Li Yue was surprised, even she had a hard time learning that kind of thing by herself, not to mention these children~?

In her opinion, this is simply impossible.

"The role of the gentleman is only to enlighten and guide, there are very few things that can be taught to them, and if you count one, it is like the starry sky at night, it is infinite, and in the end, it is up to them to explore and develop ...... by themselves."

Chu Yue looked at Her Royal Highness the princess and explained: "Although these princes and princesses are young, they will always grow up, I am cultivating their ability to learn independently, and I am also cultivating their ability to solve problems by themselves, not to mention that all problems can be solved by Mr., not to mention, I have already written the textbook for them, with their current foundation, there is no problem in understanding what is written on it~." ”

"Actually, you're too lazy to teach them yourself, right~?" Li Yue looked at him and asked.

For this matter, he actually found such a high-sounding excuse, if he didn't know him very well, he would definitely feel that what he said was very reasonable.

No~! Although she knew that this was just an excuse he made, she couldn't deny that she really felt that he was justified at the moment.

Euphemism and subtlety is the fine tradition of the Chinese nation, when speaking, often after a few detours, before expressing their meaning, even Yan Chuchu, who has never eaten fireworks in the world, is not exempt from vulgarity.

For example, the one hundred taels of silver he owes Yan Chuchu, although she will be very serious about the matter of silver, but at least Yan Chuchu will not point it out directly.

For example, she would say that she wanted to buy a piece of cloth and needed exactly one hundred taels of silver.

For another example, she will ask herself with great concern for the first time, is the one hundred taels of silver that she borrowed from him last time enough, do you want to borrow him a little more~?

For example, she would ask Chu Yun euphemistically and implicitly, the cloud floating in the sky ------ not like the one hundred taels of silver that I borrowed from him last time~?

Obviously, Her Royal Highness the princess does not know how to be tactful and subtle like Yan Chuchu.

So the atmosphere in the room began to become awkward.

"Does my father agree~?" She looked at Chu Yun and asked.

"Of course~."

Chu Yun replied without hesitation, just now, he had already reached an agreement with the old emperor on this matter.

Joke~! He fooled a monk like Master Xinyin, and fooled the stinky monk of Chu State, he has always been a monk who fools others, could it be that the old emperor will be more difficult than them~?

Now that his father and emperor have agreed, Li Yue naturally has nothing to say~.

He shook his head a little helplessly and said: "I don't know if my father told you that the palace ban will be canceled tonight, a banquet will be held in Yonghe Palace, a banquet will be held for the ministers, and at the same time General Yuan will be picked up and washed away, as a county, you will also participate~." ”

"Hmm~And this~?" Chu Yun looked surprised, what Li Yue said, no one told him just now~.

If Chu Yun is not mistaken, it seems that it has only been a few days since the old emperor feasted his ministers in the palace last time~?

Banquet civil and military officials, the specifications of the banquet are naturally not low, far from being comparable to the narrow-minded and stingy guy of the King of Shu, even if the treasury is full, it will not be so wasteful.

Even if it was to slap the envoys of Chu in the face and stick a knife in their chests, can't you change to a simpler and more brutal method~?

For example------ accidentally throw a few "thunders" at the place where they live~?

The cost of this is much, much lower than a banquet, and it is worth serious consideration.

"Can't you go if you don't go~?" Chu Yun looked at Li Yue and asked.

Yesterday, I went to the banquet of the King of Shu and caused a lot of turmoil, if the banquet of the old emperor was also messed up, in this heavily guarded palace, there was no place to escape.

"Of course you can~, but you have to tell your father yourself~." Li Yue glanced at him and said.

Chu Yun said in his heart, forget it, as the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, although the other party is quite docile when he sees this tiger, but God knows when he will show a mouth full of sharp fangs~?

A tiger is a tiger after all, and if you look at nothing through the fence in the zoo, a fool will jump into Tiger Mountain to see it, or twice a day.

Just think of it as another free meal and drink, anyway, the main purpose of this time has been achieved, and it is time to discuss with Xiangzhen about going out for a honeymoon, as for what will happen to the capital in the future, whether the king of Shu can become the crown prince or not, and what conditions will the envoys of Chu put forward, who cares~!

------

"What~, the queen's post~?" Chu Yun looked at the invitation card in Xiangji's hand, and was a little stunned for a while.

The old emperor held a party in Yonghe Palace, feasted the ministers, and the queen mother actually held a banquet in Fengming Palace, of course, the invitees were all the ladies of the imperial capital and the wives of those ministers, it stands to reason that a small county lady is not qualified to participate, but Ruyi was also invited somehow, and at this time she was holding a post to ask for Chu Yun's opinion.

"Since it was invited by the queen~, let's go~." Chu Yun felt that it was good to let Xiangzhen go around the palace, after all, there were not many opportunities for this kind of thing, besides, this was the first time that the queen had invited, as a tigress with the highest status in the Xia Kingdom, it was not good to refuse her like this~.

Chu Yun didn't take the matter of the banquet to heart, put it aside for the time being, and whispered to Xiangji: "That thing~, how are the preparations~?" ”

Xiangji was slightly stunned, and then realized what he said, and said in a low voice: "We have to go~, but we don't tell Chu Chu and Yu'er, is this really good......." ”

"We're just going out for a while~, and it's not like we're not coming back~." Chu Yun shook his head, how could two couples go out for their honeymoon and bring their sister-in-law, it is even more inappropriate to bring Yu'er without her, so they simply don't bring any of them, and sneak around at night, and when they found out, the two of them were already standing on the bow of the boat hand in hand to watch the sunrise.

"That~, well......." Xiangji lowered his head and whispered.

She would never have any different opinions on Chu Yun's proposal, and even if she did, she would still be persuaded by him in the end.

When Yu'er walked into Chu Yun's room with a stack of washed clothes, she glanced suspiciously at her uncle and eldest lady in the courtyard, and a trace of vigilance appeared on her little face, Miss and Uncle are very wrong these days, there must be something she doesn't know about is about to happen, she feels that she also needs to go to Miss Table to talk about it, Uncle and Miss Cousin are now sleeping in the same room, and in the whole family, only Miss Table is her most determined ally~.

After the hundred officials returned home, General Yuan returned to Beijing, and the news that His Majesty was going to feast the ministers tonight soon spread throughout Kyoto.

Everyone knows that it has been several days since the envoys of the State of Chu arrived in Beijing, but they have not yet been summoned by His Majesty, and now His Majesty has held such a large-scale celebration banquet for General Yuan, which is undoubtedly embarrassing the envoys of the State of Chu, after all, the entire Xia State, regardless of the monarchs and ministers, has accumulated too much resentment on them over the years.

The rank and title are not high, but the officials or dignitaries who are fortunate enough to be invited are naturally happy in their hearts, and they can participate in tonight's banquet, no matter when they can brag about it, and those who are not invited sigh secretly in their hearts, this kind of once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, can't witness it with their own eyes, it's a pity~!

However, some people are happy and some are sad, and some people's minds are not at the banquet.

Since last night, the subordinates of the Shu Wangfu have been trembling and cautious in everything, and even their walking pace has slowed down a lot.

Just this morning, His Highness had already broken several tea cups, and when a subordinate was cleaning the pieces, he accidentally made a louder noise, and was scolded by His Highness, and he was so frightened that he even broke his head.

They are just subordinates of the Shu Palace, except that they know that several adults have come to the palace to find His Highness this morning, and after they leave, His Highness's mood will be even worse.

I just thought in my heart that I must be more careful in doing things, and I must not anger His Highness ....... again.

Compared with the Shu Palace, the atmosphere in the Qin Mansion is not much better.

After the next dynasty, many officials did not even return to their homes, and about half an hour after Qin Xiang returned home, they secretly changed into civilian clothes and visited the door.

However, including Qin Xiang's protégé disciples, these people were all stopped outside by the porter, on the grounds that Qin Xiang was not feeling well, and if there was anything, he would talk about it in a few days.

Everyone returned disappointed, and the people in the Qin Mansion who knew the inside story were also full of sadness.

"Father~, what does Your Majesty mean by this~, why was the eldest brother suddenly transferred from the Chinese Book Province~?"

"There are several other edicts~, this is simply against my father~, against my Qin family~!"

"Those adults are waiting outside now~, do you want to see my father~?"

Everyone stepped forward to ask, and the old man sitting on the chair frowned, and said: "There is no need to say anything about this matter, Your Majesty's thoughts, how can we say anything, the old man is loyal to Your Majesty and my Xia Kingdom, the sun and the moon can be learned, the heavens and the earth can be revealed, things are not what you imagined~." ”

Qin Xiang took a sip of tea, and after the Heart Sutra calmed down, his brows furrowed slightly again.

His Majesty's actions this morning were beyond his expectations, although the spring breeze turned rainy, but there was a hidden thunder in secret, he asked himself if he didn't do anything sorry for His Majesty, the starting point of everything is for the Xia Kingdom, for the people, why did Your Majesty come here~?

Could it be because of the King of Shu~?

No matter from which point of view, the king of Shu is the best candidate to inherit the unification, this point, even Your Majesty can not change, otherwise, there will be great turmoil in the court, I believe in Your Majesty himself, and I don't want to see such a scene.

Glancing up, he saw a person in the hall wrapped in a white cloth around his neck, he frowned again, looked at the young man and asked, "What's the matter~?" ”

"Little things~." Qin Yan tugged at the corners of his mouth and said disapprerovingly.

"These days~, you'd better be more stable~, and the King of Shu will go there less~." Although he was already very disappointed with this grandson, but in the end, it was the only bloodline of the lineage, and Qin Xiang couldn't help but admonish.

Qin Yan didn't answer, the expression on his face didn't change in the slightest, and he didn't know if he had listened to it.

Qin Xiang's face showed a little thoughtfulness, and he said: "Your Majesty is inviting a banquet in the palace tonight~, you and I will go together~." ”

Tonight's banquet is not limited to hundreds of officials, like them, it is no longer normal to bring a junior in the family to show his face in front of everyone~.
