Chapter 009 Bacon is given to the prime minister, and the gift is light and affectionate
"Apprenticeship?"
"Worship the prime minister as a teacher?!"
Early the next morning, Weiyang Palace, Guangming Palace.
Hearing his mother, Mrs. Jia's relay, Liu Sheng only shook his head like a rattle.
"Don't go!"
"If you don't go, you have to !!"
Without waiting for Liu Sheng to flee the scene, Mrs. Jia gave Liu Sheng a look, and let Liu Sheng be pulled back by his brother Liu Pengzu on the side.
And after the loud shout of 'if you don't go, you have to go', Mrs. Jia's face immediately swelled with a touch of unbearability.
The youngest son, Liu Sheng, grew up in the palace when he was a child, although he is not well-behaved and sensible, but in the word 'filial piety', he has never been able to find fault.
As a mother, Mrs. Jia never thought about making her sons have a great future in the future;
As long as the two children can spend their youth in good health, and when they reach the age, they will be crowned kings, go to the country to marry a wife and have children, start a family, and spend their lives in peace, Mrs. Jia will be satisfied.
Therefore, for the two children, Mrs. Jia has never said harsh words in the past, especially to Liu Sheng, and she has never even said a hard word.
But today, even if she couldn't bear it, Mrs. Jia could only be ruthless, forcibly pulled Liu Sheng's arm, and knelt down in front of her.
"Mother knows that Sheng'er doesn't like to read since she was a child."
"But this matter is specially sent by His Majesty to inform him, and point out that today, it is necessary for his mother to take Ah Sheng to the door."
"Sheng'er must know: filial piety is not only to be filial to his mother, but also to be filial to the queen and His Majesty, and to be filial to the queen mother;"
"That is, regardless of filial piety, Your Majesty is the king, and Sheng'er is the minister······"
"Mother~"
was forcibly pulled by his mother to sit down, Liu Sheng was already wearing a mask of pain on his face, and when Mrs. Jia spoke, Liu Sheng interrupted even more impatiently, and said 'Niang', which was already ignoring the etiquette in the palace.
"Since the child was three years old, he was driven by his father to study in Shiqu Pavilion, and he barely got out of trouble until his grandfather died;"
"It's hard to have a few months of good birthday, and my father wants his children to study again······"
"Isn't this bullying~"
Full of sorrow, Liu Sheng did not forget to cry and mourn, and shook Mrs. Jia's arm coquettishly.
"Mother~"
"Don't let the child go~"
"It's really not good, the child will go to the Xuan room and make amends to his father······"
Seeing Liu Sheng's unprecedented coquettishness in front of him, Mrs. Jia couldn't help but soften.
But after a short period of thought, Mrs. Jia finally relented, pursed her lips, raised her hand gently, and touched Liu Sheng's still sad face.
"Sheng'er is ······"
"Obedient."
"Huh?"
After wanting to speak for a long time, Mrs. Jia, who had never disciplined her two sons, could only hold back such a sentence.
In front of Mrs. Jia, Liu Sheng silently lowered his head and sighed with a depressed expression.
Liu Sheng knew that his mother was worried that the emperor's father would be unhappy, so she wanted to make herself obedient.
As a son, Liu Sheng didn't want to embarrass his mother.
But the word 'reading' is really a bit inconsistent with Liu Sheng······
"Alas~"
"Father is really, he doesn't have a ······ stomach at all"
How could Liu Sheng not see that the emperor's father drove him to the prime minister to apprentice, just to avenge what happened to Liu Sheng in Weiyang Palace yesterday?
Thinking that his mother had also seen through this, she ignored Liu Sheng's wails and could only persuade Liu Sheng to be obedient.
- After all, no matter how you say it, Liu Sheng's body is a prince who does something unreasonable to do to courtiers and high-ranking officials at the level of 2,000 stones·····
"The king wants the minister to die······"
"Minister, I have to die~~~"
Raising his head in despair, he raised his head to the sky and let out a wail, Liu Sheng could be regarded as looking at the face of his mother, Mrs. Jia, and reluctantly agreed to this matter.
But even so, Liu Sheng still did not completely give up the idea of 'finding his own way out'······
·
About half an hour later, a carriage carrying Mrs. Jia drove out of the north gate of the Yang Palace: Sima Gate.
Driving out of the palace gate, the carriage turned to the right, drove along Artemisia Street to the arsenal and then turned right, and Shangguanli, where the Prime Minister's Mansion was located, was already hundreds of steps away.
The carriage drove slowly on Zhangtai Street, but the brothers Liu Pengzu and Liu Sheng did not get into the carriage, but hung behind the carriage not far away.
While urging Liu Sheng to go faster, he looked down at the bacon that Liu Sheng was holding in his hand, and Liu Pengzu's eyebrows were also a little bantering.
"Mother asked me to prepare for the apprenticeship, and Ah Sheng took a piece of bacon outside the room?"
"This is called courtesy and affection!"
With an angry low roar, Liu Sheng only looked away depressedly, not caring at all about the ridicule on Liu Pengzu's face.
But seeing Liu Pengzu shaking his head and smiling, he moved his gaze back to his feet, as if casually, and said with a slight reminder: "It is said inside and outside the government and the opposition that the prime minister, Anhou Shen Tujia, has always been an honest official. ”
"Even relatives with the same surname want to visit, but they are always turned away."
"As for the courtiers and officials, all those who dare to bring gifts to the door will be thrown out with gifts······"
As he spoke, Liu Pengzu turned his head sideways with a smile, and looked at Liu Sheng's gaze, which was a little playful.
"Such an honest person, give a bacon ······"
"Appropriate?"
was broken by his brother's words, Liu Sheng's face only turned red, and when he reacted, he suddenly became a little annoyed and angry.
"The right fit is the best!"
"If you think this apprenticeship is too light, it will save your father's 'kindness'······"
said this, but Liu Sheng was annoyed, and the resentment in his tone also dissipated a little inexplicably;
I can't help but have a good impression of the old prime minister I have never met.
In his previous life, Liu Sheng was not an outstanding person, and he had never had an experience worth showing off, or a special skill worth boasting about.
As a child of a poor family, an ordinary person, and a problem-solver, Liu Sheng only knows: an official, as long as he is a clean official, no matter how bad he is, he will definitely not be bad.
If today, the prime minister really shows dissatisfaction with Liu Sheng because of the 'thin courtesy', then Liu Sheng is happy to take the old lady back to the palace the same way, and turn his head to make a small report to his father: Dad, the prime minister thinks that I haven't paid enough tuition~
- Liu Sheng specially brought a piece of bacon as a gift, and this is the abacus!
But if it is really as his brother Liu Pengzu said, the prime minister is an extremely incorruptible person, and can even throw guests out of the gate in order to refuse bribes······
"Hurry up, it's here."
While thinking about it, there was a soft reminder from his brother Liu Pengzu in his ears, which provoked Liu Sheng to raise his head hurriedly.
Seeing that the carriage had stopped outside the Prime Minister's Mansion and his mother had already gotten off the carriage, Liu Sheng also hurriedly trotted forward.
"The Kid Wins ······"
Running quickly to his mother's side, ignoring the bacon in the general's hand, Liu Sheng hurriedly bowed his hand.
But when he saw the old man standing outside the Prime Minister's Mansion and looking at him with a smile, Liu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and the words 'Meet the Prime Minister' were not able to say it for a long time······
