"I wonder what you're doing here?" Fang Congzhe smiled lightly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said intentionally or unintentionally.

Glancing at the figure walking in the distance, Han Kuang smiled and said, "There is a Honglu Siqing, it seems that there is something, I asked the scribe to bring him in." ”

Following Han Kuang's gaze, Fang Congzhe saw the two people walking in the distance, nodded lightly, and did not speak, but turned around and walked into the duty room. After glancing at each other, Liu Yijing and Han Kuang also walked in. A small Honglu Siqing is not qualified to make them wait, even if it is just a coincidence.

As soon as the three of them were finished in the house, the scribe walked in with Li Kezhuo, a middle-aged man in his thirties. As soon as Liu Yijing and the three of them saw Li Kezhuo, they knew why this person, after so many years, was still a Honglu Siqing.

Let's not talk about Li Kezhuo's background and talent, just because of his appearance, it is impossible to be a big official. Li Kezhuo had a deceitful appearance, his eyes were small, he glanced at a small mustache, his thin figure, and the official robe on his body looked like a huge cloak.

Looking at Li Kezhuo's appearance, the three of them frowned, the three of them were deeply taught by science, and they believed that they were born from their hearts, and they looked like this, and they believed that they were not good officials.

In the Ming Dynasty, he was very particular about judging people by their appearance, and for the dignified person, everyone subconsciously thought that he was a good official. People like Li Kezhuo grow up to be very unpopular.

"Xiaguan Honglu Temple Qing Li Kezhuo, see the three adults." After Li Kezhuo came in, he bowed to the three of them, which was different from Liu Yijing and Han Kuang's salutes, which was to kneel.

Liu Yijing didn't have a good impression of Li Kezhuo, but seeing him look like this, he actually dared to come here, which simply affected the image of Daming. couldn't help but snort coldly, turned his gaze to the side, and didn't speak.

Han Kuang saw the appearance of his old friend, and subconsciously glanced at Fang Congzhe, and saw that the first minister of the cabinet didn't seem to see Li Kezhuo. Holding a teacup in his hand, he drank it one by one, as if the cheap tea in the cabinet was a dragon well before the rain. Seeing that both of them had this attitude, Han Kuang knew that he could only speak by himself. He smiled softly at Li Kezhuo on the ground and said, "Master Li, get up!" I wonder what is the matter with Lord Li coming here? ”

Seeing the above straight to the point, Li Kezhuo knew that this was not waiting to see him, and he couldn't help complaining about his parents in his heart, why he was born into the way he is now. If he was also dignified, maybe he would be the one sitting on it now, suppressing his unrealistic illusions, Li Kezhuo said cautiously: "Xiaguan heard that the emperor is seriously ill. ”

As soon as Li Kezhuo's words came out, the attention of the three people sitting suddenly focused on Li Kezhuo's body. Liu Yijing was glaring angrily, Han Kuang was in disbelief, and Fang Congzhe was deep in sight and couldn't see what he was thinking. You must know that in this era, everything related to the emperor must be cautious. Especially the matter of the emperor's illness, it is not allowed to discuss it in private, let alone say it so openly. Even cabinet scholars like Liu Yijing and Han Kuang can only dare to say it when there is no one in private.

Looking at Li Kezhuo, who was stunned, Liu Yijing suddenly slapped the table and stood up, and scolded loudly: "Shaft, this is also something you can discuss." ”

Seeing Liu Yijing like this, Li Kezhuo was suddenly shocked, what was wrong, why did he suddenly lose his temper, and couldn't help but look at Han Kuang on the side for help.

"Your Majesty is in the prime of autumn, I am as bright as Ri Zhongtian, even if the emperor has a small body, he also has the blessing of God, you and other officials dare to slander the emperor, do you know what this crime is?" Before Han Kuang could speak, Liu Yijing had already strode to Li Kezhuo's side and scolded him loudly, the voice was so loud that the cabinet duty room that had been in disrepair for a long time fell into dust.

Listening to Liu Yijing's words, Li Kezhuo was suddenly shocked, why is this so? Is this a Cabinet Fellow? How can it be Dongchang Jinyiwei, this is too big to give people the ability to be charged with crimes! I just said a word, it was to slander the emperor, if I said a few more words, it would not be disobedient and rebellious, and I would directly destroy the nine clans.

"Lord Liu, I don't mean that when I got off the official! I just heard that the emperor's health is not very good, and I have an immortal medicine in my hand and want to dedicate it to His Majesty. Li Kezhuo hurriedly knelt down and explained loudly to Liu Yijing, while looking at Fang Congzhe, who was sitting in the main seat.

Gently put down the teacup in his hand, smiled faintly, Fang Congzhe said: "Brother Yijing, don't be angry, it's just a Honglu Temple." He turned his gaze to Li Kezhuo again, and said sternly: "As an official of the imperial court, you must not believe the rumors, don't you know that the three of you became tigers?" Go back and be your official with peace of mind, and don't do these useless things. ”

Li Kezhuo was immediately overjoyed, as for the matter of offering immortal medicine, he didn't dare to mention it again, he almost died, and it was important to leave at this time. Gently wiped the cold sweat on his head, was very frightened, slowly stood up, and staggered out.

Looking at Li Kezhuo's back walking out, Liu Yijing waved his sleeves and said loudly: "Corpse vegetarian meal." ”

This is just a trivial matter that happened in the cabinet, and no one took him to heart, not even Liu Yijing, who had just lost his temper.

The moonlight is bright, insects are chirping, and many palaces in the imperial palace have no lights, and this huge Forbidden City seems to be asleep.

In Qianqing Palace, in front of the door of Chengde Palace, Ye Xiang sat quietly outside alone, looking at the bright moon in the sky, his thoughts were very chaotic. Glancing back at Li Jinzhong who was standing behind him, Ye Xiang said lightly: "You have been with Bengong for a long time, when Bengong was very young, you were by Bengong's side, in your eyes, what kind of person is Bengong?" ”

Li Jinzhong was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the prince to ask this question, he groaned slightly, as if he was thinking, seeing the prince's deep gaze, Li Jinzhong was suddenly shocked. I have never seen such a deep gaze from the prince, the prince grew up beside him since he was a child, he is playful and does not like to read, it can be said that he does not learn countless at all, but what is the matter with this gaze?

didn't have time to think about it, and after a little silence, Li Jinzhong said flatteringly: "The prince has been smart since he was a child, and he is the future prince of our Ming Dynasty. "I don't know why, Li Jinzhong was clumsy at this time, and the original flattering words were all stuck in his throat at this time, and he couldn't say anything!
