008 The East Chamber
The corners of Rong Jiu's lips raised slightly, and he looked at Jiang Yuan and said, "The emperor's people, the ministers can't move, and the emperor should be clear." ”
"Rong Jiu!" Jiang Yuan shouted angrily, still without the slightest deterrent.
"The emperor is angry, and the lord is angry. The old slave brings you two cups of tea. Gao Defu persuaded him, and went to the top of the desk to serve Jiang Yuan's teacup. At this end, he happened to drop the fold on the desk to the ground. Then the book appeared in plain sight.
Jiang Yuan gritted his teeth secretly, at this time, Gao Defu could really make trouble for himself.
I saw Gao Defu panicked and wanted to pick up the notebook and put it aside, but Rong Jiu saw it in his eyes, and he said, "Gao Defu, bring it over and show it to me." ”
"This, Lord Rong ......" Gao Defu was still a little secretive and hesitated.
Rong Jiu didn't speak, and spread out his palms.
Gao Defu had no choice but to offer the "East Chamber" with both hands.
"Rong Jiu, you give it back to me, it's mine." Jiang Yuan tried to take it back before Rong Jiu opened it, but Rong Jiu directly lifted the notebook, Jiang Yuan was so anxious that he jumped twice to reach it, but he couldn't reach it.
"Your Majesty, be careful." Gao Defu hurriedly said on the side.
Rong Jiu looked at Jiang Yuan, who was a head shorter than him, and said, "The emperor hasn't grown much in height in the past few years. ”
"You have to take care of it!" Jiang Yuan was indignant and had already given up taking the notebook back.
"The Legend of the East Chamber?" Rong Jiu looked at the name of the cover, muttered for a while, then opened the notebook, and after a few quick glances, he closed it again, "This is what the emperor saw?" ”
"Can't you?" Jiang Yuan pouted and expressed dissatisfaction, "This is what I just got my hands on, don't break it." ”
Rong Jiu shook his notebook and asked, "The emperor let people out of the palace just to buy this?" ”
Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then had a flash of inspiration and replied, "Dang, of course it is." This one is hard to come by, and it took me a lot of work to get it. ”
Gao Defu bowed to the side and said, "Don't hide it, my lord, the emperor had a nightmare last morning and woke up in a cold sweat." The emperor is still young and has never seen a bloody scene, so he is inevitably afraid. So in order to relieve my mood, I specially bought this book to read, and please forgive me. ”
Rong Jiu flipped through the "Tale of the East Chamber" in his hand again, and then said, "The emperor likes to watch these?" No wonder ......"
Rong Jiu didn't say any more, and there was something meaningful.
Rong Jiu immediately closed the book and said to Gao Defu, "The emperor is not suitable to read these books of love and love, he should still read more poems and songs, or military books." Gao Defu, you have to persuade the emperor more, and you have to look at the emperor more. ”
"Lord Rong is thinking about the emperor wholeheartedly, and the old slaves have remembered it."
"Your Majesty, the minister will retire." Rong Jiu said, and threw the book "The Story of the East Chamber" into the pot with charcoal fire.
"My "Tale of the East Chamber" ......" Jiang Yuan exclaimed, his face full of regret, and he watched the script being burned to ashes.
Jiang Yuan gritted his teeth and felt that this Rong Jiu was the evil star who was specifically against her.
Seeing that Rong Jiu straightened the hem of his clothes, he walked very chicly
Jiang Yuan grimaced at Rong Jiu's back and stuck out his tongue, "Lulu...... Be nosy, I want you to take care of it! I just look, I watch. ”
"If the emperor is obsessed, the minister will investigate what happened last night."
Jiang Yuan immediately stood up and shut up.
Rong Jiu turned his head slightly, glanced at Jiang Yuan and said, "The emperor remembered that the minister's ears are very good. If the emperor wants to say something, it's not too late to wait for the ministers to go away. ”
"I'm fine, just don't look at it. Walk slowly! Helplessly, Jiang Yuan secretly scolded Rong Jiu, you big devil.
As soon as Rong Jiuyi left, Gao Defu finally breathed a sigh of relief, he secretly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and said to the people in the hall, "Let's get up and get busy, don't chew your tongue." ”
"Yes, Grandpa Gao."
Jiang Yuan saw that the palace maids and eunuchs were all dispersed, so he said to Gao Defu, "Father-in-law Gao, you deliberately dropped the "East Chamber", right?" You're so smart that you know how to use this method to help me out of the siege. Otherwise, I really don't know how to respond. ”
"The emperor has won the award, and the old slave only thought of it suddenly, and the emperor reacted quickly."
Jiang Yuan smiled, and then said, "However, did you already know that I was not reading the folds but reading the book?" Jiang Yuan felt a little embarrassed.
Gao Defu replied, "The old slave has been serving the emperor for so many years, and the emperor likes to see many things, but he doesn't like to watch this piece. ”
Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "You still know me." ”
"Thank you for the emperor's compliment, the old slave is just doing his part."
——
In the Yikun Palace, Gao Defu knelt in front of Chu Chengbi. Chu Chengbi held the long armor on the other hand with one hand, and didn't raise his head, but asked slowly, "I heard that Lord Rong went to the emperor after the court this morning, so what's the matter?" ”
Gao Defu replied truthfully, "It's because of the emperor's departure from the palace last night." ”
Chu Chengbi sat up in surprise and said, "The emperor actually left the palace last night?" You didn't stop it? ”
Gao Defu replied, "It's the old slave who deserves to die, and he doesn't know that the emperor is out of the palace." Although the emperor has had the idea of leaving the palace over the years, he has always remembered the teachings of the queen mother and has never gone out, so the old slave ......"
Chu Chengbi directly interrupted Gao Defu's words and said, "If you are wrong, you are wrong, and there is no need to find a reason." You should know that there is never a shortage of talents around the mourning family. The reason why you have been kept by the emperor's side is also because you have served the emperor, and the emperor also has some trust in you. ”
"The old slave knows."
"To be a slave is to have the appearance of being a slave, the mourning family has promised you so many things, you should serve the emperor well. You don't even know such a big thing as the emperor leaving the palace, what's the use of the mourning family asking you? ”
Chu Chengbi's clever words made Gao Defu's backbone already cold. He had never served the previous emperor so tremblingly, but he didn't expect to serve the new emperor, but he was going to walk on the tip of the knife, and if he was not careful, he would die.
Gao Defu remembers very well that after the death of the first emperor, he was called to Chu Chengbi. Chu Chengbi took out a few account books, which were the money he received in the palace in those years, as well as the mansion he had purchased outside the palace. Not only that, but she also held the life of their Gao family's nephew in her hands. From now on, Gao Defu must obey Chu Chengbi's words, serve Jiang Yuan with all his heart, and cannot tolerate the slightest difference.
The most ruthless character outside the palace is Rong Jiu, and the most ruthless character in the palace is the Queen Mother, Chu Chengbi.
"The old slave promises that there will be no next time."
Chu Chengbi straightened his sideburns and said, "Fortunately, there was no trouble this time, but you should also know what kind of character Lord Rong is." Since he inquired, it means that he has some suspicions. If today's events hadn't convinced him completely, he would have continued to investigate. If you don't look at the emperor well, then the mourning family will be unkind to you. ”
"The old slave knows. The old slave looked at Lord Rong and probably didn't think much about it. But what happened outside the palace, the emperor never told the old slave, and the old slave didn't dare to ask more. ”
"The emperor's affairs, the mourning family will ask about it. You just have to do your duty and know what you do. ”
"Yes, Queen Mother."
Chu Chengbi slowly leaned back on the soft couch and asked, "Has the emperor been in a better mood these two days?" Still thinking about that day? ”
"I'm in a better mood, but I'm still concerned about that day."
Chu Chengbi sighed slightly, "After all, he is still a simple child, and he has never seen these things." It's just that as the emperor, sooner or later he will see him. It may not be a bad thing for Lord Rong to let her see it. ”
"That's what the Queen Mother said."
"It's nothing, you can step down."
"The old slave retired."
After Gao Defu retreated, Chu Chengbi said to Jinxiu beside him, "Jinxiu, you go out of the palace and bring Yan'er in." I haven't seen her for some days, and the mourning family misses her a little. ”
"Yes, Queen Mother, the slave and maid will go."
"There's no need to rush it. It doesn't hurt to go back later. By the way, count it out, Lord Chu and Lord Song should also come back when they sent an envoy to the Shogunate, right? ”
Jinxiu replied, "Back to the Queen Mother, it's only been half a month." ”
"Good. When they return, the dust will settle on what is to come. ”
