Chapter 448: He's Old, Not Stupid
The old emperor's pupils were instantly dilated several times, and his face was full of disbelief.
Of course, the old emperor knew about this matter, when this matter was reported to Beiyan last year, there were always rumors that it was done by King Chen's people, although he didn't believe it at the time, but the accident of Prince Nantai was the most beneficial to Beiyan, and among his sons, only King Chen had this ability.
"In that case, why didn't he ask for credit?"
The old emperor was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that such a great merit can be rewarded from him, but why not only did he not come, but he also kept it from the world?
He Jiuniang glanced at him and said, "Do you still need me to tell you the reason?" Don't you know what you know? ”
I'm sorry, that's really not, so the old emperor looked at her in confusion.
He Jiuniang didn't sell Guan Zi either, and said: "Isn't it because His Royal Highness King Chen is not favored, and his people dare to send it to you to ask for a reward?" Besides, as far as your distrust of King Chen, you will definitely feel that he is threatening your country again, don't talk about rewards when you fall, it's good that you don't find an excuse to solve people. ”
She is really not afraid of the old emperor at all, anyway, she can say whatever she wants, the old emperor is half angry every time, but he likes to listen to her very much.
Sitting in his position, there are not many people who dare to tell him the truth, and it is quite rare to suddenly meet someone so bold.
When the old emperor heard her say this, he didn't refute it, if King Chen really did it at that time, he might really attack Lu Baichuan because he was afraid of King Chen.
"Not only that, my husband has done a lot more, anyway, if he wants to be promoted, he will naturally rely on his own ability, there is no need to touch my light at all, understand, emperor?"
He Jiuniang said, she had already begun to collect the needle, the old emperor ignored her, she said again: "The emperor's condition is quite stable, I will go back to Jingzhou tonight, and I will give you the injection in a month, you must do what I ask during this time, otherwise the persistence of these days will be in vain." Anyway, you remember, anyone who wants to give you a beauty will be pulled down and beheaded. ”
The old emperor nodded, and it took him a while to react and ask, "You are leaving tonight?" ”
"yes, didn't I say that? My son is still waiting in Jingzhou, I will go back for a period of time and come back to you for a follow-up, your condition is very stable, just take medicine on time, the process of detoxification is very slow, it is estimated that it will take three or five years. ”
After the needles were put away, He Jiuniang began to pack up the medicine box.
The old emperor hurriedly asked again: "Then don't you want your husband's merits?" His exploits are fully capable of serving in the national capital. ”
He Jiuniang shook her head: "Of course you can't do without meritorious deeds, but now is not the time for the truth to be revealed, now that he is rewarded for this meritorious service, then Nantai will target him, and when the time comes, will our family still be able to live a stable life?" Therefore, I hope that the emperor had better not spread the word about this matter, and we just need to know it ourselves. ”
We?
The old emperor licked his lips, and somehow, because of this title, he felt a little happy in his heart.
In her heart, he is his own person with them?
Suddenly there was a feeling of recognition, obviously he didn't need it, but he just felt happy.
"Ahem......"
Realizing that his smile was a little obvious, the old emperor hurriedly coughed twice, straightened his face again, and then said very seriously: "Since this is the case, then remember for the time being, and it is not too late to talk about meritorious deeds when the time is ripe in the future." It's just that there is no way to give me a title now, but the reward is indispensable, and besides, if you treat me, I can't give nothing......"
"Then I will reward you with some fields and villages, gold, silver and cloth, and so on, and someone will come ......."
The old emperor operated and rewarded He Jiuniang with a lot of things, He Jiuniang smiled so hard that she couldn't close her mouth, and asked: "Your Majesty, why do you believe whatever the courtiers say?" Aren't you afraid that your courtiers will deceive you? ”
The old emperor rolled his eyes: "You won't be able to deceive me." ”
He's old, and he's not stupid.
Some things are deliberately pretended not to know, but many things are like a mirror in his heart.
He Jiuniang nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, I dare to tell you so, there will definitely be no fake!" However, King Chen has done a lot of things that are beneficial to the country over the years, and you can't pretend not to know, you touch your conscience and ask yourself, if it weren't for King Chen dealing with these things all these years, would you and other princes still be able to fight wits and courage in the national capital so leisurely? Maybe it would have been attacked and fallen by Nantai and Dongting together. ”
Some words, up to the point, He Jiuniang felt that she had said enough, so she deliberately said: "Alas, don't say it, don't say it, I don't understand anything as a woman, I annoyed the emperor for a while, and then it's not good to get these rewards back, hehe, the emperor, you have a good rest, the courtiers have retired!" ”
After speaking, let the four or five palace maids around her come forward to help her move the big box containing gold and silver out.
Several palace maids looked at each other and glanced at the old emperor, who waved his hand irritably, and was ready.
A few people tried their best to help.
In the past few days, they have seen that over the years, the emperor has not accepted the wall, so he has served this Mrs. Lu.
Obviously, what this Mrs. Lu said was some angry words, and the emperor was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe, but he didn't lose his temper, and even gave her so many rewards.
In the past few days, they have been beside them, but they have eaten a lot of big melons, but they just can't tell anyone, and they are a little panicked.
He Jiuniang just got the reward, naturally very generous, after the palace maids helped to carry the box into the carriage, she rewarded a silver ingot, and said: "Thank you, take care of the emperor during this time, there can be no sex in these seven days, and then only once every seven days, you must keep an eye on it!" ”
The palace maids nodded again and again: "Yes, the slaves and maids must take good care of the emperor." ”
He Jiuniang remembered that on the day she first came, these palace maids and eunuchs didn't care much about her, and it was only a few days, and her attitude was always eager, and sure enough, she had to have a good relationship with the old emperor and be able to speak, so that these people around her could give her a good look.
This is true of human nature in all ages.
Every day He Jiuniang entered the palace, Lu Baichuan would wait for her at the gate of the palace, knowing that she was just treating the old emperor normally, and the old emperor would never fight her again, Lu Baichuan's mood was much more stable, standing at the gate of the palace, he could also talk and laugh with the guards guarding the door, and even talk to each other twice and give one or two pointers, but in two or three days, the relationship was too good.
"Hey, sister-in-law is out!"
The guards guarding the door were the first to see He Jiuniang's carriage, and hurriedly opened the door for Lu Baichuan to enter to greet him.
Good brother, the back door is still open.
