Chapter 1064: Reluctance
Remember [ ] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
Emperor Chu asked, and after a long time, Chen Ye shook his head.
"There is no objection to the minister."
Chen Ye bowed his hand and said respectfully.
"If there is no objection, I will follow this will and let the officials of each county do the same, and the excess taxes paid before will be refunded."
"Yes, the minister thanked the emperor for the people, long live my emperor, long live long live."
Chen Ye hit the ground with the sound of heaping on the ground, old tears were full of tears, and he was happy.
It can be less than thirteen o'clock, and he is already grateful to Dade when he can reach ten.
"The minister will tell the officials below the news now, and the minister will retire first."
Chen Ye said excitedly, kowtowed, got up, and slowly retreated.
Xia Ruosheng snorted coldly, and his face was not very good-looking.
"The emperor is the honor of the Ninety-Five, if there is no emperor, there will be no people, what is the matter with the emperor asking for more taxes, Prime Minister Zuo is really salty and eats radishes and worries lightly, and the minister thinks that there is no problem at all with collecting thirteen points of tax."
Xia Ruosheng said righteously, and Emperor Chu rubbed his forehead: "Okay, there is only a difference between thirteen and ten, and Prime Minister Zuo is also a veteran, so he must always give him some face." ”
Xia Ruosheng looked unconvinced: "Yes, what the emperor said is right." ”
Xia Ruosheng compromised, how dare he say that the decision made by Emperor Chu was wrong.
"Your Majesty, the minister has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not."
Xia Ruosheng observed Emperor Chu, hesitating and not knowing whether to talk or not.
"If you say anything, what else is inappropriate."
"Someone saw General Xiao go to Chen's Mansion yesterday... As soon as General Xiao went to Chen's mansion, Prime Minister Zuo came to tell the emperor about this matter the next day, and the minister felt that this matter must be instigated by General Xiao behind his back, what do you say a military general is worried about about these things? ”
Xia Ruosheng said slowly, as soon as he heard Xiao Yongde, Emperor Chu's face darkened a little, and his paranoia recurred.
"Do you have any evidence for this?"
Emperor Chu looked at Xia Ruosheng and asked, already believing in what Xia Ruosheng said.
"The ministers' people and those who were outside the Chen Mansion yesterday can testify that General Xiao got down from the sedan chair and entered the Chen Mansion."
Xia Ruosheng affirmed that he specially ordered people to keep an eye on Xiao Yongde and Chen Ye, these two were his enemies and stumbling blocks that hindered him, and he wanted the two to interact more, so that Emperor Chu would know that these two people were in the same boat.
What Emperor Chu hated most was that there were people in groups, especially people in high and powerful positions.
"Your Majesty, this must be instigated by General Xiao behind his back, Prime Minister Zuo must be used as a gunman, the emperor must not fall for their schemes, how can the wealth of Chu be like Prime Minister Zuo said that he can't even pay a little tax, in the past, the emperor fought everywhere for the people, and now is the best time for them to return, the people say that they are not rich, and our treasury is not abundant, and the minister still thinks that taxes must not be reduced."
Xia Ruosheng tried to make Emperor Chu change his mind, and Emperor Chu was heavy: "The words have been said are equivalent to spilled water, and they can't be recovered." ”
"Let's do that for now."
"How could the right prime minister's people stare at the Chen Mansion?"
Emperor Chu asked curiously.
"Your Majesty, the minister is for the emperor's sake, Prime Minister Zuo and General Xiao are too close, the two of them see each other once every three days, and the minister is afraid... I am afraid that General Xiao has already colluded with people in the court, a military general, to win over the court officials like this, there must be a conspiracy in this. ”
"Your Majesty, be careful."
Xia Ruosheng reminded, and Emperor Chu nodded: "I will be careful." ”
"I am very relieved to have someone like the right prime minister around me who thinks about me."
Emperor Chu sighed, and Xia Ruosheng gave his hand: "The minister swears to serve the emperor to the death in this life, and will not let the villains take advantage of it." ”
"Okay, I can rest assured that the right prime minister will be relieved, and the matter between the left prime minister and General Xiao will be handed over to the right prime minister, and if they have any other actions, remember to tell
I. ”
Emperor Chu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he advised.
Xia Ruosheng instantly understood what Emperor Chu meant: "Yes, if there is a minister, he must be the first to tell the emperor." ”
"The star concubine has arrived."
Xiao Yuanzi's voice sounded outside, and Xia Ruosheng knew that he shouldn't stay here and retreated after saying a few words.
"Mother."
Looking at the red sleeves who stepped into the door rail, Xia Ruosheng lowered his head and shouted softly, the red sleeves nodded, and went directly to the house without looking at it.
"Why are Xing'er's eyes red? Who bullied you? ”
As soon as Emperor Chu looked at the red sleeves, he found that the red sleeves were different from usual, his face was haggard, and his eyes were still red.
"Your Majesty, Niang Niang was like this..."
Before Red Sleeves could speak, the dog spoke first, and before he finished speaking, he was reprimanded by Red Sleeves: "Dog, you go down." ”
Listening to the red sleeves' orders, the dog did not dare to be presumptuous.
Remembering that her master was still mad in the hall half an hour ago, the dog didn't dare to say more.
She also wondered if Red Sleeves was still crazy one second ago, and the next second she came out of the Star Moon Hall and went to the imperial study as if it was fine.
"Who is bullying Xing'er? Tell me about it, and I'll settle accounts with that person. ”
Emperor Chu looked at the back of the dog leaving and turned his gaze to the red sleeves, got up from the chair and sat down on the soft collapse next to him, pulled the hand of the red sleeves with one hand and pulled her into his arms, hugging her thin waist.
"No one bullies the concubines, the concubines have the emperor's protection, who dares to treat the concubines badly, the emperor doesn't want to listen to the dogs."
Red sleeves snuggled in the arms of Emperor Chu, holding his waist with his hands.
Rubbing his waist with thin hands, Emperor Chu made a sound comfortably.
"My old waist hurts from sitting for a long time recently, rub it."
"The emperor should get up and take a walk appropriately, those ministers are really, they don't understand the emperor at all, and they don't know what they are going to do to report to the emperor."
"If you want the concubines to say, they should all be punished!"
The red sleeves pouted and pouted angrily.
Emperor Chu laughed, and a mouthful of chirp fell on that tender white face.
"I'm the emperor, if I don't care about these things, then no one cares, but Xing'er is right, this big and small matter has to be reported, I am very tired."
"Xing'er tell me why I'm crying."
Emperor Chu looked down at the person in his arms, still concerned about this issue.
He wondered who had made his star cry.
"No, the concubine went to the imperial dining room to cook porridge and accidentally smoked it."
"What about this porridge? Why don't you bring it to me to taste? ”
"I haven't eaten the meal made by Xing'er for a long time, and I really miss it."
"This porridge is special, it needs to be boiled for three hours with an open fire, and it is not yet an hour, and the emperor has to wait two more hours if he wants to eat it."
Red Sleeves explained, smiling.
"Today's concubine came to bring medicine to the emperor, and the emperor forgot to take the pill yesterday, which is really worry-free."
Redsleeves pulled a box out of his arms and opened it.
There were a few black pills lying inside, and Emperor Chu remembered this when he saw the medicine, and patted his forehead.
"Look, I forgot about this again, if it weren't for Xing'er you reminding me, I don't know when I would have remembered it."
"In the past, Pang Hai remembered these for me, but now that I have changed to Xiao Yuanzi, I am still a little unaccustomed to it."
Emperor Chu sighed lightly, he couldn't understand how Pang Hai could do such a thing at such an age, and specially said that he and the Queen Mother, if they were not punished, it would be a slap in their face.
Red sleeves shook Emperor Chu's hand lightly: "In the future, the concubines will come to remind the emperor." ”
"Ah, open your mouth."
Red Sleeves picked up the elixir
, said like a child, Emperor Chu obediently opened his mouth, and the pill was sent into the mouth of Emperor Chu.
"This medicine is still just as fishy."
"Poof, the concubine has only heard of bitter medicine or the first time I have heard of fishy, and the emperor drinks saliva."
Red Sleeves picked up the teacup and handed it to Emperor Chu, who took a sip and put down the teacup.
"This elixir is different from other elixirs, Xing'er, do you believe that there is an elixir of immortality in this world?"
Emperor Chu looked at the red sleeves and asked tentatively.
Red Sleeves squinted and smiled: "Then the emperor is credible?" If the emperor believes it, the concubine also believes it, and the concubine doesn't believe in these but believes in the emperor. ”
Those charming eyes looked at Emperor Chu, and after a closer look, Chu Chong and Chu Yuzhang were still a little similar to each other.
It's a pity that she can't treat Chu Chong as Chu Yu, because it's not him.
"Xing'er is like this, he will definitely suffer in the future."
Emperor Chu looked at the red sleeves for a long time and sighed worried about her, but the red sleeves were calm: "What kind of loss can the concubines suffer by the emperor's side, the emperor doesn't look at the concubines like this, in fact, the concubines are not stupid, they are just willing to believe in the emperor's vision." ”
"Your Majesty, what is the effect of this elixir? The concubines don't look like they're sick when they see the emperor like this, but the pills keep coming every month. ”
Red Sleeves asked curiously.
"It's for me to keep fit."
"I see."
Redsleeves nodded, as if he didn't understand.
"Can this medicine only be taken once a month? Wouldn't it be better if you ate more? ”
"Haha, I thought about it this way at the beginning, but the doctor said that you can only eat one a month, and if you eat more, it will be counterproductive."
Emperor Chu laughed, and his red sleeves now looked like him before.
He used to eat when his emotions were unstable, and he ate when he was angry, and the more he ate, the worse his body became.
"I see."
Redsleeves nodded and pretended to understand.
As the sun sets, the sky is covered with a thin layer of golden silk, dyed half the sky red.
Chen Yi was reluctant to leave from Chen's mansion, and Mrs. Chen watched the carriage leave.
After the carriage disappeared from sight, Mrs. Chen's smiling face instantly collapsed, and she said with a sad face: "Yi'er doesn't know when she will be able to come when she will go back this time." ”
"If my sister wants Yi'er, she can also go to the Six Princes' Mansion to visit, Yi'er's front foot has just left, and her sister is at a loss for what to do, this is like Mrs. Chen."
The concubine quipped, and Mrs. Chen pushed her: "Go, Yi'er is my daughter, I think what's wrong with my daughter!" ”
"Yi'er is now the Sixth Imperial Concubine, and I can see my mother once in a while, so I dare to go to the Six Emperors' Mansion diligently, I don't know what I will say if I see it."
Now that Chen Yi is married and has her own home, if she ran to the Six Princes' Mansion every day, she didn't know if Chen Yi had any problems with Chu Xu, or thought that she had a quarrel with Chen Ye, and the Chen Mansion couldn't stay, so she went to the Six Princes' Mansion.
"Why don't you eat here and then leave?"
Mrs. Chen was reluctant to chatter, and she knew that she would leave them for dinner before letting them leave.
"Sister, people have gone far away, and if you want to stay for dinner, you can only stay next time, you see that the master is back."
Not far away, a carriage drove slowly by, and the driver sitting in front of the carriage knew who the people in the carriage were.
In the blink of an eye, the carriage had stopped outside Chen's mansion, and when Chen Ye came down, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw everyone outside: "What day is it today, why did they all come out to greet me." ”
Chen Ye asked inexplicably, with a smile on his lips.
When he came back, he had ordered someone to tell Xiao Yongde the good news, and also ordered the county officials to change the taxes, and he was already very happy to be able to reduce it from thirteen to ten, and it was estimated that he would even have to laugh when he slept at night.
