Chapter 363: Saving Your Life

Chu Hongzhen returned to his normal appearance just now, he patted Zhu Rong's smooth shoulder, and comforted Zhu Rong softly.

Zhu Rong still looked questioning, she looked at Chu Hongzhen with big black grape-like eyes and said nothing.

Chu Hongzhen chuckled and pushed Zhu Rong's body, and explained helplessly:

"How can a beautiful woman not believe me. I really didn't mean anything else, I just thought the pattern was a little familiar. ”

Zhu Rong's eyes were a little evasive, and he didn't look at Chu Hongzhen again, but asked unnaturally: "Really?" Where did Your Majesty meet? ”

Chu Hongzhen thought about it seriously, and did not answer Zhu Rong's question positively, but instead flickered:

"I don't remember after too long, so let's go to bed early, beauty."

Zhu Rong also knew that this matter could not be rushed, and tonight's o'clock was enough to remind Chu Hongzhen of something.

She bowed her head slightly and didn't say much, but obediently helped Chu Hongzhen untie his clothes.

The night was uneventful, no different from the previous one. The only difference is that Chu Hongzhen did not get up early to review the folds according to what he said last night.

can only blame last night's Zhurong's "beauty incense" for using more than in the past, which caused Chu Hongzhen to not get up this morning.

However, this is a mistake that helped Zhu Rong again, which can be regarded as a change of unreasonable trouble with Chu Hongzhen, but Chu Hongzhen didn't even finish reading the fold.

Chu Hongzhen didn't forget what he promised to Zhu Rong last night, he first prepared a holy decree for Yuan Qing, and then hurried to the early court.

When he saw the round jade pendant on Chu Jingxuan's waist in the court, Chu Hongzhen's mind thought of the tattoo of Zhu Rong's foot plate.

Before, Chu Hongzhen had always felt that the pattern of the dragon around the lotus on the bottom of Zhu Rong's feet was very familiar, and he remembered where he had seen it, and the pattern was clearly the same as the pattern on Chu Jingshuo's jade pendant.

He remembered that this jade pendant was designed by a painter he had sent a painter, and the jade pendant pattern was different for each prince.

If Chu Hongzhen could see the jade pendant clearly now, he would definitely be able to find that the two patterns were still a little different, that is, the lotus petals painted by Cheng Xiaoxiao were different.

How can Cheng Xiaoxiao remember it so clearly, and she is not an unforgettable immortal.

If you can draw that essence, deceive everyone, and fool Chu Hongzhen, you will be considered successful.

The main Chu Hongzhen just looked at each other from a distance in the court and remembered the jade pendant, and he couldn't see such fine details at all.

Just a few glances were enough to make Chu Hongzhen's heart surge.

"If there is something to start, there is nothing to retreat!"

Yuan Qing's voice sounded beside Chu Hongzhen, looking at Chu Jingxuan, who was as usual under His Highness, Chu Hongzhen's handsome eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!"

"Your Majesty, the minister also has something to do!"

"Your Majesty, the ministers are also ......"

"Above the court, what kind of system!"

Chu Hongzhen's expression became more and more ugly, and he frowned and interrupted the slightly noisy voices of His Royal Highness's ministers.

"Please allow Your Majesty to let the ministers speak first."

A minister with a goatee shouted with his back holding his piece.

This elderly man is an editor of the Hanlin Academy, and is responsible for the "general office" of the four libraries.

And his recital is one of the parts that Zhu Rong unintentionally 'criticized' last night.

"Your Majesty, this is not right!"

If only others might still be vague, or endure the next court.

But Zhu Rong picked these parts of the bias are all upright, and he dared to speak in the court in the past, so this Hanlin Academy editor was the first to can't help it.

"The minister has encountered some problems with the revision of the "Siku Quanshu" in the past few days, and the introduction of this book is a little inappropriate, and it still needs to be seen by His Majesty, but I didn't expect His Majesty's reply, this reply ......."

The editor's words did not continue, but he still handed the fold to Yuan Qing, waiting for Yuan Qing to hand it over to Chu Hongzhen for a look.

There are one and there are two, this editor opened his mouth first, and the few who were originally going to speak, this will be even more scrambling to talk about it.

Waiting for their recitals to be handed over, he didn't expect Chu Hongzhen to laugh while watching, and his mood was a little better than just now.

Xu is lover is lover's eyes, Chu Hongzhen only thinks that every sentence of Zhu Rong's review is very interesting.

Although the text is quite incorrect, the coquettish tone is helping Chu Hongzhen speak between the lines.

For example, what she wrote in the compilation of the recital is: Don't disturb me with such small things, and solve them by yourself to highlight Aiqing Wentao.

There is also a minister who said that it is the birthday of His Royal Highness King Xuan and His Royal Highness King Chu Jingxuan, and the treasury has been tight recently, so it should not be so extravagant and wasteful.

This minister is also an old stubborn, and he is still the courtier of the former emperor.

In the past, Chu Hongzhen didn't have much to do with him, but this time Zhu Rong's reply was:

The banquet has been arranged, Aiqing will think of a way as soon as possible, and she can not bring her family on the same day.

It's going to off that bad old man.

Looking at the few old ministers who were blowing their beards and staring at them, Chu Hongzhen thought for a moment and still restrained the smile on his face:

"I was tired last night, and I was indeed a little confused, and I will re-review these pieces and send them to you."

Hearing this, I thought that those people would be a little calmer, but I didn't expect the editor who spoke first to open his mouth at the urging of several other people:

"Your Majesty, in addition to these recitals, you haven't reviewed the other recitals of the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Households, do you want to give them to the ministers tomorrow?"

Although these words were a question, Chu Hongzhen was very uncomfortable to hear.

He was only a little too much last night, but he was a son of heaven, and he had magnanimously given these ministers a reason why they did not follow this step down, but on the contrary, they had to refute his face.

It's really always been like this, stubborn and old-fashioned.

If it weren't for the fact that these were all the founding fathers of the previous dynasty, how could Chu Hongzhen be so polite to them.

He took a deep breath and tapped his fingers impatiently on the table, "I said I was unwell last night. ”

The editor was also stubborn, he raised his chin slightly and wanted to say a few more words, but in the end, a few people around him grabbed him, which suppressed his urge to continue.

They finally quieted down here, and Chu Jingshuo nodded at a few people quietly.

Those few people threw a reassuring look at Chu Jingxuan, and one of them took the lead to stand up and said respectfully:

"Your Majesty......"

"Do you have something to report too?"

Chu Hongzhen's expression became very ugly because of what happened just now, and when he saw that someone else stood up to speak, he looked at the person who spoke meaningfully with a long voice, and waited for the person to tell him with an unhappy expression:

"Let's talk about it together, what else is going on."

"The minister heard that Yun Zhaoyi was frequently canonized, and the minister knew that this matter was a matter of the harem, but the emperor's move was not in line with the national system, and the minister thought it was ......"

Before the minister finished speaking, he was frightened back by Chu Hongzhen's stern eyes.

Chu Hongzhen really didn't expect that someone would directly mention Zhu Rong's matter, and he would come up and tell him something 'not in line with the national body'.

"Zhaoyi? Wang Aiqing is well-informed enough. You know the decree that I have only prepared to proclaim before the court, and you know it so quickly. ”

Chu Hongzhen didn't laugh angrily, he squinted his eyes and glanced at everyone in the hall, and continued without being salty:

"Presumably, the harem concubines don't necessarily know everything, Wang Aiqing's hand is stretched long enough."

Wang Liangxiong, who was bowing at the bottom, had weak legs, and he knelt down.

He fell to the ground except to say, "The minister does not dare." I didn't dare to say anything else.

Glancing at Wang Liangxiong without being noticeable, Chu Jingxuan gestured to several other people with his eyes.

The other people, you push me, I push you, and in the end I had to send someone out.

"Your Majesty, since Yun Zhaoyi entered the harem, he has been rewarded and canonized in a short period of time, and now he has his own garden, and everyone in the court knows about such things."

This time it was Tian Feng, the squire of the military department, who spoke, and he didn't look at Chu Hongzhen, he only knelt on the ground and finished his words in one breath: "Yun Zhaoyi is just a palace maid, such a thing is unheard of in my Chu country, and I hope Your Majesty will think twice." ”

After Tian Feng finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and didn't want to get up, and Wang Liangxiong just now heard someone help him and his mind became active again:

"It's not a secret, the ministers of the DPRK and China have been discussing it for a long time, and they all feel that Your Majesty has been too obsessed with women recently, and today it has not yet been approved, and under this circumstance, we are afraid that the Chu State will be ......."

"Presumptuous!"

Chu Hongzhen originally wanted to hear what these ministers wanted to say, but he didn't expect them to be good, and the more they talked, the more energetic they became, and even said such unsatisfactory content.

He slapped the dragon case in front of him hard, and the force was so great that the twists and turns above trembled.

And Yuan Qing beside him, as well as the ministers who were still standing below, all fell to their knees with a 'poof', and they all leaned over and didn't dare to make a sound.

"Yes, you guys are so good! Now all the other things are taught, aren't they? Why don't I give you this dragon chair to sit on, and let you govern the Chu State and my harem? ”

Chu Hongzhen was furious, and the temples next to his eyes were jumping suddenly.

"Your Majesty is angry, and the ministers don't dare."

Everyone didn't dare to look at Chu Hongzhen, so they could only call out in unison.

"Don't dare? I see how dare you! ”

It wasn't enough to relieve his anger, Chu Hongzhen didn't let everyone get up, just smiled contemptuously, and said sarcastically:

"Wang Liangxiong, I think you're very good at talking. It's better for me to give this throne to you first, and then to Tian Feng. ”

The two people whose names were called were shocked, lowered their heads and looked at each other secretly, and shouted repeatedly:

"Damn it! The minister never dared. ”

A cruel cold light crossed his eyes, Chu Hongzhen lowered his voice, leaned forward slightly, and stopped when his chest was about to stick to the dragon case:

"You're really impressing. The mouth kept saying that this did not dare, that fear. Turning his head to comment on my family affairs, I wanted to meddle very much. ”

Chu Hongzhen suddenly got up from the dragon chair, stood in front of the dragon case, and shook his sleeves with a cold face:

"You know so much about the harem, I guess my harem is not mine, but yours."

He looked at Wang Liangxiong and Tian Feng, who were shaking their heads desperately below, with his hands behind his back: "Which of my good concubines colluded with you to give you benefits?" Aren't you able to speak well? Tell me about it, too. ”

The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and the ministers of the former dynasty are not allowed to have more contact with the harem concubines.

Therefore, what Chu Hongzhen said, it is more appropriate to say that it is a warning than a threat.

If such a crime was really placed on the emperor himself, then Wang Liangxiong and Tian Feng would not be able to explain it even if they had a hundred mouths.

At this point, where does anyone dare to continue to say, after all, nothing is more important than saving one's life first.
