Chapter 43: Reward and Punishment

King Chen shook his head, what a big deal, why is it so noisy.

"Why did the princess make your girl faceless? What did they say? King Chen asked.

While speaking, Lu Caixi had been rescued by Yunsheng.

"Your Highness, don't ask, the concubine doesn't want to be the restless messenger, and the concubine doesn't want to cause a rift between His Royal Highness and Niangniang because of the concubine! The concubine knew that the concubine was too favored by His Royal Highness a while ago, which caused a lot of dissatisfaction among the sisters in the house. This is the wrist of the master's mother's house, and the concubine is a concubine who doesn't even have a name, how can it be said that the mother is not? ”

Lu Caixi said a lot of words, and said extremely aggrieved, but King Chen just listened with a calm face, and when she finished, Fang said: "It's just a misunderstanding, since you are late, the princess will not punish you, isn't there no rule of respect and inferiority in the house?" Okay, don't make any more trouble, let's go back and rest. ”

"Your Royal Highness Mingjian, the princess punished the concubine, and the concubine should have suffered like this, so she shouldn't say anything. But Qiuyan has always been a careful girl, why did she hear it wrong yesterday? It doesn't matter if the concubine is punished by the mother, but Your Highness, you must know that the concubine was wronged...... As long as His Royal Highness is considerate of the concubine, it doesn't matter how much the concubine is wronged......" Lu Caixi said, choking up again.

King Chen waved his hand and responded indiscriminately: "Okay, this king knows, and he is also very considerate of you." ”

As he spoke, he had already strutted away with his hands in his hands, no longer listening to her noisy words.

After walking a few steps, I suddenly stopped......

turned around and said: "The first time I asked the princess to say goodbye, you came late, the princess thought you were disrespectful to her, and fined you a month's monthly money, which is light." So be it......"

King Chen looked at Yunshang: "If you order it to go down, it will be said that this king meant, Miss Lu offended the princess and deducted her monthly money for three months." ”

"Your Highness......" Lu Caixi looked at King Chen with a look of disbelief, tears flashed in his eyes, and a tear slipped down, pitiful.

"You have been in the house for half a year, and you are indeed very pleasing to this king, and there is nothing wrong with it. It was the king's negligence that he forgot to give you the throne...... Yunshang, inform Mama Jin, let her send someone to know about the courtyards of the back house, from today on, Miss Jin Lu is a beauty. ”

Lu Caixi was stunned for a moment, and then kowtowed to the ground: "Concubine Thank Your Highness for your kindness......"

King Chen bowed his head: "Okay, let's go back......"

"Concubine body to send His Royal Highness......" Lu Caixi said respectfully.

King Chen strode away, not even looking at her more.

I don't know how Rong Yunxi should deal with this time...... The corners of King Chen's mouth were slightly hooked, and he was still very curious in his heart.

All the way to Zhaode Courtyard, Rong Yunxi was teasing the edelweiss in the yard, holding a small ball of thread, leading the edelweiss away.

"You think it's a cat? It's a dog. King Chen reminded.

"It's all the same when I was a kid." Rong Yunxi handed the thread to Chu Xia and gave a salute to King Chen.

King Chen raised his hand and motioned for her to get up.

After entering the house, he ordered Chuxia and Zhiqiu to go out, and found a civilian robe in the cabinet to change into. Bian said: "How do you feel when you see them today?" ”

Rong Yunxi said: "The concubine has already guessed it." ”

"Oh? Then tell me, which one does the king like the most, and which one he dislikes the most. King Chen said

"If the concubine says it now, it will be unfair to the concubine", Rong Yunxi said with a smile, "Your Highness is not the one who takes advantage of a small advantage, it is better for us to be fairer, write the answer on the paper at the same time, and then look at what the concubine writes, which is the same as what His Royal Highness wrote." Your Highness thinks, how about this? ”

"It's a great idea!" King Chen turned around and walked through the square hall happily to the small study.

Rong Yunxi also followed, polished the ink, and the two of them each took a piece of paper and wrote down the answer at the same time.

After King Chen finished writing, he buttoned the piece of paper and blocked it with his hand, with a touch of pride in the corner of his eyes.

Rong Yunxi finished writing, and showed it directly to King Chen very happily.

I saw the smugness in the corner of King Chen's eyes, and it instantly dissipated without a trace.

On the contrary, the corners of Rong Yunxi's eyes showed a slight smug look. The tone was faint, with a slight smile: "Is the concubine right?" ”

King Chen shook his head and smiled, revealing his answer: "Rong Yunxi, you won......"

Rong Yunxi wrote: There is no favorite, and there is no favorite and no least like; King Chen wrote: Neither.

"How did you guess?" King Chen was a little curious, so he leaned back in his chair and asked her.

Rong Yunxi took the two pieces of paper and threw them into the waste basket on the side, and said, "It's not to guess, it's to look." Playing games with His Highness, how can you win without using your brains? ”

"Looks like you know you're smart." King Chen said with a smile.

Rong Yunxi said lightly: "Sometimes." Everyone in this world is not stupid, it's just that someone wins a move. ”

"What is your impression of these concubines of this king, the princess? Tell me about it for the king. King Chen said.

Rong Yunxi sat on the chair in front of the window of the study and said lightly: "It's all very good, Your Highness's vision is very good." ”

"Perfunctory ......to me," King Chen stretched, "If you really think it's all good, why don't you think this king likes it very much?" ”

"Your Highness has a person living in your heart, so no matter how good these women are, for Your Highness, they are just a temporary fun to play, and they can only get into the eyes, but not in the heart, so why do you like the most and don't like it?" Rong Yun Xi Road.

King Chen leaned back in his chair and looked at her, and after a while, he got up lazily: "You...... This time to win completely. ”

"What do you want this king to do for you? Have you thought about it? King Chen went to the bedchamber.

Rong Yunxi followed and said with a smile: "The concubine body has already been thought about." ”

"Oh? Let's hear it. ”

"The concubine thinks that in the past few days, our drama has been almost done, why don't Your Highness stay overnight in Zhaode Courtyard from now on, right? Let's all be comfortable. Although he was saying expulsion, Rong Yunxi's tone was very ordinary.

King Chen smiled, this little woman is really very capable. Even if he was driving him away, and it was clear that he was acting these days, such a calm and calm tone made people unable to raise the slightest disgust.

Now that you have lost this game, you can't talk without counting.

King Chen also responded with a smile: "Okay...... It's just not tonight. ”

Rong Yunxi was puzzled: "Why?" ”

"For a smart and understanding little woman like the princess, this king can't fall into the ground...... You don't understand this now, but you'll find out later. ”

King Chen took off his shoes and went to bed and lay down: "This king takes a nap for a while, and wakes up this king at lunchtime." ”

"Hmm." Rong Yunxi responded lightly.

Although his mouth was faint, he helped him close the open window of the bedroom.

Hearing the sound of the window closing, King Chen smiled at the corner of his mouth, and felt more and more that this little woman was very interesting......

Prince's Mansion.

In the prince's bedroom, surrounded by a group of beautiful women, the prince suddenly felt very annoyed, and waved his hand: "Let's all step back and let the palace be clean for a while." ”

I thought that if I asked the beauties to come and serve, I would be in a better mood. But looking at these women who can be regarded as beautiful on weekdays, they always feel very ugly. These mediocre and ugly qualities really can't get into his eyes.

The beauties were dismissed, and the prince did not bury himself in the room, but strode towards the garden.

This morning, the third child proposed to rectify the Sanhuai River, and more than a dozen senior officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee immediately seconded the proposal. Although the emperor did not immediately approve it, he had already asked the Ministry of Industry to draw up a plan. It is estimated that in three or five days, this matter will be decided. And this matter was proposed by the third child, and the father would naturally send the third child to supervise it.

This is a fat gap to establish merit, not only to go to the rich area of Sanhuai to make a big profit, but also to win the praise of the people of Sanhuai and the merchants, and the good name is also bulging, and the money bag is also bulging......

As soon as he left the council hall, when the ministers were all walking out and couldn't tell each other, the eldest uncle came to him and gave him a look. Among the ministers, the eldest uncle naturally didn't say anything, but the look in his eyes clearly made him intervene in this matter.

If you ruin this matter and let it not work, it will be easier to do. As long as the excerpts of the Ministry of Industry are made to be messy and the emperor is annoyed, this matter will naturally not be done.

Jing Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry has always been neutral and has never been involved in any forces. But in a certain sense, it also shows that he is actually on the side of the third child. It's just that this doesn't have a big impact.

Even if Jing Shangshu is on the third child's side in his heart, he is not clearly fighting for the party now, even if something happens to him, the third child will not be able to help him. So as long as he or the Protector's Mansion came forward and asked him to make up a fold, he wouldn't dare to refuse.

But that's the end of it. To tell the truth, the third child's proposal to remediate the Sanhuai River is really secondary. Now that the third child has already mentioned it, why doesn't he borrow an east wind?

Therefore, the best way is not to make this matter impossible to implement, but to promote this matter, but we must hold the power of supervision in our own hands. In this way, it is equivalent to letting the third child make a wedding dress for him. In the third child's heart, he may not know how to be depressed.

The best strategy is to take advantage of the wind; The next strategy is to stop this gust of wind.

It's just that it's not easy to achieve this strategy......

Among them, what some courtiers and the emperor thought in their hearts is a vague matter that is difficult to figure out.

The third child's power in the court has always been very ambiguous, I haven't seen which minister he has promoted, I haven't seen him get close to any minister, and I don't see him being too concerned about the affairs of the court...... Except, of course, for today's events.

All along, the third child has looked like an idle prince who is doing decorations in the court.

And the reason why the father let the third child go to court also sounds a little ridiculous-

What his father meant was that King Chen was greedy for fun, afraid that he would have no restraints, and his temperament would become more and more scattered, so he asked him to come to the court every day, as if he was learning a little bit in Taixue at the beginning, and restraining himself every day in the hour. And listen to the things of the world on weekdays, so that you will not gradually waste yourself in the fat powder pile.
