"The ministers knock to see my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" , flicking his sleeves, kneeling, kowtowing, Yan Song's set of actions has always been done in one go, with very high attainments, and he doesn't look like a sixty or seventy-year-old man at all.

"Aiqing is flat...", Zhu Houxi estimated that he had just woken up, and his mood seemed to be better, with a smile on his face, "Aiqing came this time, what is going on?" ”

"The minister has written a few green words, and I am here to dedicate them to Your Majesty...", Yan Song said as he handed the few green words written by Yan Shifan to the inner servant who walked in front of him, "The minister writes roughly, and I hope Your Majesty will not dislike it..."

"If the smoke is not smoke, if the clouds are not clouds, there are many gloomy, Xiao Suo is angry, it is called Qingyun, it is also called Jingyun, this Jiaqi is also...", Zhu Houxi read it very carefully, and he was also very satisfied with his expression, "Yan Aiqing's green words are better and better, according to me, it can be said that it is much better than Xia Aiqing, haha..."

Zhu Houxi said as he carefully put these pieces of green rattan paper into the hands of the servant next to him, "Put this away, don't damage it..."

"Yan Aiqing is really loyal...", Zhu Houxi leaned there, looking very satisfied, after all, a high-quality green word is not easy to get, "I need to reward you something..."

"As long as Your Majesty doesn't dislike it, the minister is already content, how dare he ask for a reward...", Yan Song said while taking out a delicate wooden box from his arms, and respectfully presented it to his eyes, "Your Majesty, this is the "Autumn Stone" that the minister has recently refined in the house, it is refreshing and energetic after serving, but it is too expensive, only a few grains have been successful, the minister has tried it, the effect is quite good, and it is hereby dedicated to the emperor..."

In fact, Yan Song was still a little apprehensive when he offered this kind of elixir, because he always didn't believe that Zhu Houxi could take this kind of elixir with relish, this is all salt crystals made of boy's urine! It's a little disgusting to think about, but in order not to be surprised, Yan Song still endured eating two pills, but there was no discomfort, so he presented it to Zhu Houxi with confidence.

In this kind of thing, he is still willing to believe Tao Zhongwen, after all, Tao Zhongwen told himself that Zhejiang Senator Gu Kexue was rewarded because of the sacrifice of this elixir, which made Zhu Houxi feel that it had some effect after taking it, so Yan Song was busy making this elixir.

"Oh? Is it? Aiqing has already taken it? Zhu Houxi straightened his body, but he seemed to be in good spirits, as if this medicine had been taken in his stomach, "Hurry up and present it to me, Zhongwen Zhenren has made a lot of red lead for me recently, but this autumn stone is less..."

Hearing Zhu Houxi mention red lead, Yan Song felt a wave of nausea in his heart. He heard Tao Zhongwen mention red lead, saying that Zhu Houyu was very fond of taking this elixir recently, and he originally planned to refine this red lead and dedicate it to Zhu Houxi, but when he knew that red lead was made of cinnabar made from the virgin's first menstrual period, he gave up this idea.

It's not just disgusting, it's really impossible to get it! It's okay to get some virgin urine, but to collect the kind of virgin thing, it is estimated that no one else can do it except for the palace that can collect so many virgins at the same time...

Zhu Houxi accepted the autumn stone presented by Yan Song, and he was indeed very happy in his heart. This autumn stone and red lead are newly developed pills recently, and the "solid essence soup" presented by Tao Zhongwen before, the effect is simply wonderful, two days ago there was a concubine in the harem who was happy, I am afraid that it is the effect of this pill.

Recalling the years when he first ascended the throne, he was always worried about the heirs, but now the situation is much better, thinking about his "brave posture" after taking the pill, Zhu Houxi, who has been sitting there with a serious attitude, also blushed a little and heartbeat: I must take this pill tonight, and try it with Wang Ningfei and others!

"Ahem...", thinking that Yan Song was still standing below, Zhu Houxi hurriedly put away many thoughts in his mind and sat up on it, "Aiqing has made a meritorious contribution this time, and I must reward you..."

"Hmm... What is the reward...", Zhu Houxi sat on it and muttered again, these things sent by Yan Song can be said to have a heart, and he can't send him away casually, the words of the bounty and silver wealth are inevitably cheesy, and they must give something high-end and high-grade, low-key luxury and connotation, "By the way, I have made a few green leaf crowns with my own hands these days, so I will give Yan Aiqing one...".

Yan Song listened to Zhu Houxi's reward, and his eyes lit up, and his heart was happy. He knew that Zhu Houxi's green leaf crown was only rewarded to ministers who were extremely close to and trusted, and he had always been indignant that he had not been rewarded by Zhu Houyi, but now he could finally "raise his eyebrows".

"Bow to thank Longen...", Yan Song knelt on the ground again and saluted excitedly, unconcealing the joy in his heart, and at the same time trying to squeeze out a few tears of joy and gratitude.

"Alas... Yan Song is really a loyal minister...", Zhu Houxi looked at Yan Song's excited appearance and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Thinking about the last time he gave Xia Yan the green leaf crown, his expressionless face and even a little reluctant, Zhu Houxi was a little angry. Comparing Yan Song's reaction and performance now, Zhu Houxi couldn't help but feel much more comfortable: This is what a loyal minister should look like!

"Aiqing doesn't have to be polite, you deserve it!" , Seeing Yan Songhuan's happy appearance, Zhu Houxi couldn't help but be happy.

"Your Majesty, the minister still has something to ask for...", Yan Song didn't stand up, still kneeling on the ground, looking at his current appearance, there was still a little twisted posture, as if what he wanted to say was something unsightly.

"Huh? What's the matter? Zhu Houxi looked at Yan Song's old face below and turned red, and couldn't help but have a playful taste, "Let's talk to me first, let me think about it, if it's both suitable and reasonable, I will promise you..."

Hearing Zhu Houxi's words, Yan Song seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, it seems that he is indeed quite well prepared today, at least he coaxed the above master to be in a good mood, so he kowtowed to Zhu Houxi with confidence and said, "The minister begs His Majesty to give a marriage to the minister's daughter." ”

"Huh?" , Rao is Zhu Houxi, who is usually calm in front of the minister, couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard Yan Song's words, let himself be old? I'm the Emperor!

However, for the sake of Yan Song giving him a lot of things just now, Zhu Houxi didn't have a good seizure, but said with a little embarrassment, "Aiqing, this... The matter of marriage is the order of the parents, and the words of the matchmaker, if the marriage is granted by my decree... Isn't it a good fit? ”

"Your Majesty... The minister didn't want to bother His Majesty with this matter, but the marriage requested by the minister was indeed a little special...", Yan Song just tried it, and saw that Zhu Houxi's reaction was quite normal, so he was not as worried as when he first entered the door, "The marriage requested by the minister, one side is the minister's daughter, and the other side is Lord Peng Yuepeng..."

"Oh?" , Hearing Yan Song say this, Zhu Houxi was a little concerned, Peng Yue and Yan Song's daughter seems to be more than just giving a marriage, but he still has to listen to Yan Song and say slowly, "Aiqing, since it is a marriage with Peng Aiqing, then you should ask Peng Aiqing, why did you come here to ask me for this marriage?" ”

"Your Majesty, it's not that the minister doesn't want to solve it privately, but the minister really has something unspeakable...", Yan Song said this, with a sad face, and a look of wanting to say something, "Originally, this matter has been raised, and Lord Peng has also met with the little girl several times, the little girl admires Lord Peng's character and talent, and Lord Peng has a lot of affection for the little girl... Considered recognized. But helplessly, Lord Peng hesitated again, and after repeated inquiries, he learned that it was Lord Xia who did not agree to this marriage..."

"Huh?" , Zhu Houxi frowned, and seemed to hear something, "Since it is the marriage between Aiqing's daughter and Peng Yue, how can there be an accident because Xia Yan disagrees?" ”

"This is the unspeakable secret of the minister...", Yan Song sighed lightly, looked at Zhu Houxi's expression, and hurriedly lowered his head, "Before, Lord Xia had intended to marry his beloved daughter to Lord Peng, but later Lord Peng refused... Of course, not only that, Your Majesty should also know that Lord Xia and Lord Peng have always been good friends, but Lord Xia has some opinions about the minister... I think this is also the reason why Lord Xia is dissatisfied with this marriage..."

Yan Song's words were very well measured, and some things were just pointed, and they were not explained in depth, but he believed that this would arouse Zhu Houxi's suspicion and interest even more.

Sure enough, Zhu Houxi silently made many "deductions" of Yan Song's words. Xia Yan has a close relationship with Peng Yue, isn't Peng Yue allowed to marry other ministers in the DPRK and China? What is this behavior? This is a naked act of forming a party!

"Aiqing's reason is very far-fetched...", Zhu Houxi tapped his fingers lightly on the back of his hand, and the expression on his face was a little careless, "Even if Xia Yan and Peng Yue are good friends, or Xia Yan has some opinions on you, it won't affect this marriage..."

Hey? Didn't you ask knowingly? Don't you know that this reason is enough to affect the normal interaction between ministers? However, this kind of thinking Yan Song is just thinking about it, and he will never dare to say it, he guesses that maybe Zhu Houxi wants to get some more important information from himself. But what should I say? Why don't I add some more fierce material to you...

"Your Majesty, I didn't expect that Lord Peng would hesitate about this marriage because of this, maybe Lord Peng is really a little unspeakable, after all...", Yan Song paused and breathed a sigh of relief, "After all, Lord Xia is now deeply favored by the emperor, and Lord Peng has always been friendly with Lord Xia, and even... Some people even privately say that Master Peng is Lord Xia's confidant, and if they want to weigh the two, Lord Peng will not offend Lord Xia because of a mere marriage..."

"Ridiculous!" , Zhu Houyu patted Long Qi angrily, and his heart was also a mess: in fact, he was dissatisfied with the relationship between Xia Yan and Peng Yue who was too close, but because the two of them had not done anything out of the ordinary, and they were usually quite capable, and they took care of the political affairs of the DPRK and China well, so Zhu Houyu opened one eye and closed one eye.

But now this problem seems to be too serious, gangs and factions, water can't be splashed, oil drips can't enter, this is still necessary? If it continues to develop like this, I am afraid that it will be difficult to contain it. No, we must find a way to dismantle this force that has already taken shape. Of course, you can't put people in prison and remove them from their posts at every turn, after all, they haven't made any mistakes, and they are usually considered meritorious ministers, and they are still a Ming Jun!

"Your Majesty is angry...", Yan Song couldn't help but be a little frightened when he saw Zhu Houyu angry, because he didn't know whether Zhu Houyi was angry with Xia Yan, or angry with Peng Yue, or angry with himself, "The minister just loves his daughter, and he can't bear to see the little girl worry because of this, and considering that Lord Peng also belongs to the little girl, so... That's why I asked Your Majesty for this, if Your Majesty thinks it's ridiculous, the minister will never mention it! ”

"Aiqing doesn't have to be like this, I'm not saying you're ridiculous, but... It's that Peng Yue is ridiculous...", Zhu Houxi gathered his anger, and there was a relaxed smile on his face, but he didn't know if it was true or pretended, "You said that Peng Yue has lost his wife for a long time, and he has not renewed the string, and it is not easy to have a family affair that he likes, but because of Xia Yan, he is not ridiculous, haha..."

"Ahh Yes, it's quite ridiculous...", Yan Song echoed and laughed below, and indeed secretly wiped a cold sweat, "That's why the minister came to ask His Majesty for marriage, in addition to Lord Peng's heart knot, it can also make the little girl happy..."

"Good! Then this time I will be the master, the master is such a marriage...", Zhu Houxi breathed a long sigh of relief, and his heart was also relieved: If it is really like what Yan Song said, then giving this marriage is estimated to make the relationship between Xia Yan and Peng Yue have a mustard, which is a situation that he hopes to see. After all, Xia Yan's power is too big now, and he must find a way to suppress or solve it, maybe this is a good way.

Thinking of this, Zhu Houxi couldn't help but look at Yan Song approvingly, as if he was thanking him for providing such a good time for himself, but he didn't know that his idea also coincided with Yan Song, and his approach was also what Yan Song wanted to see.

"Thank you, Lord Longen...", Yan Song crackled and said a bunch of words of gratitude, of course, in the end, he had to ask a very key question, when is the wedding date?

"The wedding date should be a good day, Aiqing can be chosen, but it is best to set it after March...", Zhu Houxi naturally has his own plans, he doesn't care if it is really a jade thing, as long as he achieves his goal.

He is not in a hurry to let Peng Yue and Yan Song's daughter marry, but to use this marriage to achieve his own goals, by the way, observe the reactions of these people, Xia Yan's reaction, Peng Yue's reaction, and the reactions of the ministers of the DPRK and China...

If it is really like what Yan Song said, then there will definitely be many changes in the period from marriage to marriage. The longer it drags on, the more changes there are, and the more information you can get...

Of course, now Zhu Houxi and Yan Song are very looking forward to it and very happy, but some people's reactions are just the opposite...
