Zhao Zhen was stunned.

This little lady is his nephew and daughter-in-law, although he is a generation, but he is the emperor, and this is his bedroom, if there is no palace person to serve, I am afraid that people will chew the root of the tongue...

Zhao Zhen was silent for a moment, and when he saw Xin Yi nodding, he waved his hand.

"You all go down."

Several palace maids didn't raise their heads, and retreated in an orderly manner.

There were no outsiders in the hall, Zhao Zhen was about to ask, but unexpectedly, the little lady suddenly pounced and knelt down in front of him.

"The courtiers implore the officials to forgive their sins!"

In Zhao Zhen's impression, this nephew and daughter-in-law is probably the person who is not afraid of him in the Great Song Dynasty, if he can not kneel, he will not kneel, and when he speaks, he dares to call "you" and "me" when he is happy.

If it were another emperor, just these impolite actions would be punished, but Zhao Zhen knew that she was from the people and never cared.

"What did you do?"

Xin Yi's face was full of seriousness, "The courtiers haven't committed a crime yet, but they will do it soon." It is only when the official family gives grace that the courtiers dare to speak. ”

Zhao Zhen: ......

The last time he talked to him like this, it was still Mrs. Zhang last time.

He raised his hand helplessly, "You get up and speak." ”

Xin Yi: "The officials refused to forgive their sins, and the courtiers didn't dare to get up." ”

Zhao Zhen: ......

Doesn't that mean that he doesn't agree, and she won't say it? But if she doesn't say it, where does the sin come from?

It's clearly a cheat!

The corners of Zhao Zhen's mouth curved slightly, making her laugh.

"Good. Whatever you say, I will not cure you for your sins......"

Xin Yi breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was afraid that the emperor would regret it, and he got up and saluted Zhao Zhen with both hands.

"Courtiers have treasures to offer to the officials."

Zhao Zhen couldn't understand it anymore.

What is the sin of offering treasures?

He smiled and said, "If you take it and make up the numbers, you will not be punished." ”

Xin Yi was silent, silently took out a small purse from his sleeve, raised his hands above his head, and presented it to Zhao Zhen.

"Official, please take a look."

Zhao Zhenhu took it suspiciously, pulled the silk rope and touched it, and a red Bodhi seed rolled into the palm of his hand, which was actually the same color as the auspicious Rui offered by the Great Xiangguo Temple.

After being an emperor for more than 30 years, Zhao Zhen has seen all kinds of means, and needless to say, he understands what Xin Yi wants to express.

The so-called auspicious foreign objects must be unique and rare treasures. If it is available everywhere, where is it still a foreign object? And how can you say auspicious?

Thinking of him inviting his ministers to feast, watch, and compose poems, it felt like someone had slapped him in the face a few times.

However, the little lady asked so dyingly:

"What do the officials want to engrave on it?"

Zhao Zhen's face immediately pulled down and threw his purse.

"Little lady Zhang, are you guilty?"

"The courtiers are guilty, but the officials have forgiven them."

"You ......"

Xin Yi looked at Zhao Zhen boldly, with a sincere expression.

She knew that this red Bodhi was not only slapped in the emperor's face, but also destroyed the emperor's desire for auspiciousness, and even laughed at the emperor's stupidity.

If it weren't for the fact that she had enough understanding of Zhao Zhen's character, she wouldn't dare to offer it with her fair hands......

"The courtiers know that the officials are benevolent and will not worry about the courtiers. What's more, the purpose of the courtiers is to protect them. ”

"Escort?"

Zhao Zhen's irritability and anger eased slightly.

"Tell me carefully, where did this thing come from? What does it mean to be escorted? ”

Xin Yi told the origin of Bodhi Zi and the Fire Tree, as well as the worries of her and Fu Jiuqu, and said respectfully: "The courtiers are worried that the official family will be deceived by the villain, so she made this decision......

Zhao Zhen picked up the Bodhi seed, observed it for a moment, and then raised his eyes to look at him.

"Your Bodhi is not as deep in color as the Great Xiangguo Temple, and the color is much worse, and it can be seen at a glance that it is dyed......"

"That's because there's not enough time to color." Xin Yi said: "The courtiers and husbands are worried about the safety of the official family, for fear that the Bodhi string is poisonous, and they dare not wait for the Bodhi to be colored......

Zhao Zhen stared at her, his eyes deep and dark.

After a while, throw the bodhi back into the purse.

"A good Huizhi, I immediately issued an order and took away his position as the presiding officer of the Great Xiangguo Temple......"

"Officialdom can't." Seeing Zhao Zhen looking at him puzzled, Xin Yi smiled and explained in a low voice:

"The auspicious matter is already known to the government and the opposition, and now is the beginning of the New Year's Festival.

"Humph!" Zhao Zhen's face darkened, "But I'm not happy." ”

No one will be happy to be deceived.

Xin Yi understood the emperor's mood very well, and smiled slightly, "Wait for the king of the county to find out about this matter, and then escort the person to the front of the official family, so that you can take your breath." ”

Zhao Zhen didn't say anything more.

In fact, he knew very well that Xin Yi's words were right. Even if the auspicious rui offered by the Great Xiangguo Temple is fake, it is impossible for him to announce it to the world, just like the large number of "auspicious rui" accumulated over the years in his treasury. He understood that it was the ministers who turned a blind eye to please him.

But Huizhi is different, he is a monk, and Zhao Zhen believes it very seriously, so he is even more angry.

"That's it, according to your words, you go back and tell Ah Jiu, and investigate this matter for me, and after the New Year, I will listen to his results."

Xin Yi sighed in his heart.

"Yes."

··

After the New Year, it will be the eighth year of Jiayou.

The people of Bianjing ushered in the New Year in the snow.

On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, there was news in the Xinyi medicine shop, the seriously injured and bedridden monk finally woke up, most of the food prepared in the store on the New Year's Festival was meaty, and the daughter of the shopkeeper went to the vegetable market to buy back many vegetarian dishes that the monk liked......

Since Xin Yi left Beijing a few years ago, the pharmacy has not taken annual leave.

An Niangzi took pity on the people who were sick during the New Year and couldn't find a place to consult a doctor, arranged for doctors, men, and medicine boys to take turns off, and gave them food subsidies.

When Xin Yi got the news, he also wrote to praise her well, and said that those who work during the New Year holiday will be paid three times the salary.

This year is no exception.

On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, every family has done a good job of New Year's goods, and when the family celebrates Chinese New Year's Eve at home, the medicine shop is still open.

Xin Yi is the owner, the guys work so hard, of course they can't turn a blind eye, she asked Xiang Ling to prepare some New Year's gifts, and prepared a handful of red envelopes, and got into the carriage and went to the pharmacy.

The eldest princess sighed and blamed her son.

"Eleven, this daughter-in-law, everything is good, but she is too hard, and she refuses to rest for half the night during the New Year, and you, the husband, don't say that you love her well, let her work outside alone...... ......"

Looking at his son who was about to go out with a big tie, Zhao Yuqing stuck in his throat before he finished speaking.

"I said, 'Where are you going?'

Fu Jiuqu didn't reply, "Catch the turtle." ”

Zhao Yuqing was stunned and looked at Mrs. Qian, "When did Ah Jiu like to eat turtles?" You let a pot of turtle soup boil in the kitchen and wait for the young couple to come back and drink it. ”

Mrs. Qian smiled: "Hasn't the eldest princess understood yet?" The king of the county was distressed about the little lady, so he found a reason to come forward and ......"

Zhao Yuqing had a smile on his face.

"Stinky boy. Count him as having a bit of a conscience. Our family, no eleven is not good...... You call the chef, I'll take a look at the dishes, and when I come back at eleven later, I'll start the meal, and prepare more of the things they like to eat......"

At the end of the month, there will be a double monthly pass, and if the sisters have a ticket in their hands, they can be stewed in the pot~
