The next morning, the clear sky was gone, and the warmest day since the beginning of winter came quietly, and then quietly left. Above the sky, the sunlight was once again blocked by the clouds.

The gloomy weather seems to be revealing people's hearts. Just last night, the people who notified the various state capitals had been sent out, and Hangzhou City was undoubtedly the first to know the news.

The emperor died, raised up and down to mourn, Hangzhou City has been hung with white cloth, all kinds of entertainment places have been stopped, and those Qinglou girls who grind iron pestles all day long have also been able to take a long vacation.

In the city of Hangzhou, immersed in a state of desolation, no one would laugh loudly, and no one would dare.

The fifth prince was dressed in filial piety clothes, kneeling in front of the spiritual seat, behind him, among the ministers, Liu Bonan and Yue Shao'an were also among them, and the old men around him were crying miserably, like a shy girl, the sleeves were lightly dipped in the corners of his eyes, and there were really a few teardrops missing, but he looked like he was full of pretend.

also has a true temperament, let go of his throat and howl and cry, as if he wants to shake the sky and listen to the cry to the dead old emperor. However, everyone knows that this kind of performance is not to let the old emperor listen, but to cry to the new emperor, but it is unknown how much it can play.

These old ministers who are mixed in the court all day long have already cultivated the skills of human spirits, but observing words and expressions is a manifestation of instinct, for the two Yue Shaoan and Liu Bonan, who are solemn and kneeling in the crowd and are not very far ahead, their eyes are a little different.

Only a few years ago, no one would have thought that the fifth prince, who had always been famous for his decadence, would become the emperor one day, so at that time, they didn't take this merry prince as a matter at all, and now they regret it, but there is nothing they can do.

Anyone knows that the two young people who have been in the limelight recently have been following him when the fifth prince was down, and the new emperor took the throne, the so-called, once a son of heaven and a courtier, the status of these two people in the future can be imagined.

Therefore, the eyes in which they looked at Yue Shaoan and Liu Bonan were very meaningful. At the same time, looking at Liu Zongyan's eyes, he was even more in awe, those two people, one is his son, the other is his son-in-law, this old guy was originally the prime minister in the court, and some people still think that when the new emperor ascends the throne, his power should be suppressed, and he took the opportunity to take the throne, however, now it seems that this is like a dream, with these two people, his position will only be more stable, and his power will only be greater.

Some people even wonder if Liu Zongyan had seen something before, otherwise, how could he send his son to the fifth prince, and that Yue Shaoan was also accepted by him as a son-in-law.

Although, there are many guesses, but there is no positive answer, the only thing that is certain, that is, those two young people cannot be offended.

The old man beside him was suffering, thinking, and thinking, but Yue Shaoan and Liu Bonan were kneeling there expressionlessly. Liu Bonan is better, after all, he has grown up in this atmosphere since he was a child.

However, Yue Shaoan was a little impatient, of course, the dead are the greatest, not to mention, the old emperor still has kindness to himself, even if he has no grace, there is nothing to kneel, but in the era when he was born, there was such a rule that he could not kneel for a long time, and his knees were not as strong as those old men.

Yue Shao'an is much worse than those old men in this regard, the five princes kneeling in front of him, and some important ministers have a foreshadowing under their knees, which is better, and Yue Shao'an and Liu Bonan, these generals, have not paid enough attention to the atmosphere of emphasizing literature and light military force in the court, generally speaking, with Yue Shao'an's official position, he is not even qualified to bow down in front of the spirit, but he is now in the limelight, his reputation is outside, and there are five princes in charge, get it, No one else dared to say anything.

However, the treatment is much worse, under the knees, is the ** floor, this long kneeling, really made him a little unbearable. But it is a matter of the national system, he can't stand it and can only endure it, otherwise, being reprimanded by those old ministers can only be suffered.

Finally, after the ceremony is completed, there will be a court meeting.

Fortunately, there was already a palace in Hangzhou, so Liu Zongyan organized and agreed on the court in the palace, and above the palace, the ministers shouted that the country could not be without a king for a day, and asked the five princes to ascend the throne. The fifth prince thought that his father was filial piety in the name of his father, so he pushed it back.

The ministers will ask again, and then push. In this way, the five princes finally agreed "reluctantly" to the national body, chose an auspicious day, and officially ascended the throne after next month, but the state affairs have been taken care of in advance.

Yue Shaoan was very disgusted by this kind of hypocritical pushing, and felt that the fifth prince was a little too disguised, but now he is no longer the stupid boy who coaxed Tian Cheng to pinch eggs.

After going through so many things, let him deeply understand that the necessary hypocrisy must be carried out, although everyone knows that it is hypocrisy, but you still have to be hypocritical.

Although he didn't feel cold, although he was disgusted, it didn't mean that he couldn't accept it, so he silently accepted it, accepted this kind of thing that everyone knows, but he still has to be hypocritically refused.

After the court discussion, Yue Shaoan finally relaxed, left the palace, rode the red horse left by Wan Yanxiang, and came towards the academy, Liu Bonan walked with him. Looking at his not very good-looking face, he said softly: "There are some things that you have to learn to get used to, otherwise, you will find guilt for yourself." ”

"Am I not guilty of this crime?" Yue Shaoan said self-deprecatingly: "I resign, I will teach me in the academy." ”

"Is it possible?" Liu Bonan glanced at him, as if he felt that he should not say such a childish thing: "You resign now, I think I will soon be able to find your body on the street." ”

"Is that an exaggeration?" Yue Shaoan spread his hands and said.

Liu Bonan said: "You and I both know it, why don't you admit it?" ”

Yue Shaoan lowered his head, sighed slightly, and then said: "Perhaps, it's because I'm too fantastical, until now, I found out that I am actually a person who is not suitable for being an official." ”

"Aren't you suitable?" Liu Bonan said with a smile: "But I heard that in Kaizhou, the people like you as a guard, it seems that you are doing a good job." ”

Yue Shaoan turned his head: "If, let me tell you, I didn't do anything, just didn't bully the people, they said that I was fine, do you believe it?" ”

"What do you think?" Liu Bonan asked rhetorically.

Yue Shaoan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Actually, it is not difficult to be an official, but it is rare that I can't get used to the hypocrisy of officialdom, I am afraid that I will feel disgusting when I am in this for many years." ”

"Disgusting?" Liu Bonan laughed and said: "It's disgusting, in fact, it's not necessarily a bad thing, if you see more things that make you disgusting, you won't feel disgusting." ”

Yue Shao'an said: "The effect of habit? ”

"Maybe!" Liu Bonan sighed slightly.

Yue Shaoan laughed at himself: "But there are some things that you can never get used to." ”

"Maybe......" Liu Bonan's two voices maybe, but they have different meanings, expressing helplessness, maybe, he can't get used to it himself......
