Chapter 116: Entering the Palace (2)
"Ma Sansi, send someone to take a look at the prince of Beihai Wang, how is it now?"
Emperor Yongming indulged in the daytime, slept with two bewitching and beautiful palace people, and was in a good mood. Standing up under the service of the attendants, he instructed Ma to think twice.
Ma Sansi responded diligently, and glanced at his godson Xiao Xi'er.
Xiao Xi'er stepped back, and a pillar of incense ran back, whispering a few words in her father's ear.
Ma Sansi remained silent, nodded slightly, walked to Emperor Yongming's side, and reported in a low voice: "Emperor Qi, the prince and Meng Yushi are waiting in the side hall. No one sent tea or snacks, and the prince didn't say anything. β
Emperor Yongming nodded with satisfaction, and opened his mouth to say, "Let him continue to wait and pass on Meng Xizhi." β
He also instructed Gonggong Jiang on the side: "Go to the Jiaofang Palace, and invite the queen and the prince to come over." β
β¦β¦
Meng Yushi, who was summoned to the audience, got up and was dressed properly. Before leaving, he glanced at Xu Jing.
Xu Jingkut sat for a long time, did not show impatience, and waved at Meng Yushi with a grin.
Meng Yushi couldn't get used to Xu Jing's shapeless appearance, frowned, and immediately remembered that he had arrived in the capital, and his errand of the imperial history had ended. What happened to Xu Jing in the palace next had nothing to do with him.
I don't know why, I'm still a little awkward in my heart.
Meng Yushi settled down, retracted his gaze, and walked out.
Xu Jing looked at Meng Yushi's departing figure and muttered to himself in his heart.
This Meng Xizhi, did he think that he would be separated from him when he arrived in the capital? Hey, what do you think! How could Sister Yue'er let him run away with such an important person!
Meng Yushi naturally didn't know what Xu Jing was thinking. Otherwise, Zhun Bao glared angrily.
"Minister Meng Xizhi has seen the emperor."
Meng Yushi knelt down and bowed.
Emperor Yongming on the dragon chair was lacking in qi, and he was a little weak: "Flat." β
"Thank you, Emperor Longen."
Meng Yushi Xie stood up, his eyes swept over the fat body of the Son of Heaven and the fat face that was blue in the white, and he was both angry and disappointed in his heart.
What is angry is that the Son of Heaven has had the reputation of lust since he was young, and he is ridiculous~ lascivious. Disappointingly, the Great Jin Dynasty has been in turmoil, and the Son of Heaven does not think about how to help the people stabilize the country, and is still greedy for beauty and lust......
As a civil official who has entered the orthodox imperial examination, loyalty and patriotism have long been imprinted in his blood.
Meng Yushi swallowed all the emotions in his heart, and opened his mouth to recall the journey to Beihai. Speaking of the tragic situation he saw on the way back to Beijing, Emperor Yongming was impatient to hear it, and opened his mouth to interrupt: "I have read all the twists and turns you wrote, so there is no need to be verbose." β
"I ask you, what do you think of the prince of the North Sea?"
Meng Yushi has a hard temperament and never lies. Emperor Yongming also knew this in his heart, so he asked so.
Meng Yushi thought for a while, and replied in a low voice: "Stubborn and naughty, willful. However, there is also a pure heart. If it can be properly guided, it may make a difference. β
Those who are familiar with Meng Yushi's temper should know that this evaluation is really not low.
After all, Meng Yushi has always only scolded people, never praised people.
Emperor Yongming sighed and was noncommittal.
Meng Yushi waited for a while, but he couldn't hold back, and opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has a word, don't spit out or be unhappy." β
"In the past two years, drought has been followed by locust plagues, people have been displaced, and hunger has spread everywhere. There is even a tragedy of changing children and eating, and there are many people who have no way to live, so they go to be bandits, kill and rob. β
Weichen witnessed it all the way, and his heart was not very sad. Weichen implored the emperor to issue an immediate decree to order the household department to raise food to help the people. β
Emperor Yongming was a little impatient, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I know this in my heart." You have been running all the way to the office, and I have allowed you to take seven days off, go back and rest for a while, and then go to court. Kneel down! β
Meng Yushi: "......"
This faint king!
Meng Yushi was so angry that he gritted his teeth and had to reluctantly retreat.
When he exited the palace, he happened to meet Queen Su and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Queen Su has a beautiful face and an elegant temperament. The crown prince Xu Jun was ill and had just recovered, his face was pale, and his eyebrows and eyes were delicate.
Meng Yushi came forward to see the salute.
The prince smiled: "Meng Yushi, please." β
The prince is actually smart and kind-hearted. However, he has been a sick seedling since he was a child, not a long-lived man.
Meng Yushi sighed secretly in his heart.
Queen Su's gentle voice sounded in her ears: "Meng Yushi went to Beihai County this time, and he traveled thousands of miles and worked hard. β
Queen Su is smart and virtuous, has an excellent reputation, and is very respected by all officials.
Meng Yushi hurriedly said: "This is a matter within the responsibility of Weichen, how dare you say that it is hard." β
Empress Su asked softly, "What is Meng Yushi's impression of Beihai County?" β
mentioned this Meng Yushi: "Weichen only stayed for half a day, and then he and the prince set off to the capital, and they really didn't have any impression of Beihai County. β
A trace of loss flashed in Queen Su's eyes.
Next, I heard Meng Yushi say: "However, on the way back to Beijing, Weichen was fortunate to meet Miss Zhao Liu, the fiancΓ©e of the prince. β
"This Zhao Liu girl is beautiful and intelligent. Especially chess skills, especially above Weichen. β
Miss Zhao Liu?
Queen Su's heart jumped, and her voice was a little strange: "This Zhao Liu girl, but she is from the Beihai Wang clan?" β
"Exactly." Meng Yushi replied: "Miss Zhao Liu's father is Zhao Yuanming, who was in Lianzhong Sanyuan back then. β
Empress Su clenched the handkerchief in her hand.
The prince glanced at him a little strangely: "What's wrong with the queen mother?" β
Empress Su calmed down and said softly, "It's nothing." β
The mother and son walked into the temple.
Emperor Yongming is too fat, and he has to rely on the inner attendant to support him when he gets up and walks: "Queen, Jun'er, the prince of Beihai has entered the palace, and I will summon him to meet him, and you will also come to see him." β
The prince didn't know what to do, but he was very happy.
These princes of the feudal kingdoms were all summoned to Beijing on the grounds of accompanying the prince to study. The prince of the North Sea is the fastest one.
I heard that the prince of Beihai was one year younger than him, but I don't know what it looks like.
β¦β¦
After a pillar of incense.
A young man wearing a jade crown and brocade robe stepped forward. The young man's sword eyebrows and starry eyes are very handsome, and his eyes are full of energy. At first sight, my heart suddenly rejoiced.
The young man bowed his hand, and his voice was clear: "Xu Jing, the prince of Beihai, has seen the emperor, the queen, and His Royal Highness the prince." β
Emperor Yongming glanced critically.
It seems that I can't pick anything that isn't.
Empress Su looked at this handsome young man with a smile: "No courtesy, flat body." β
It is difficult for a mother to feel bad in her heart when she looks at such a handsome and cute teenager.
Xu Jing thanked him, and when he got up, his eyes quickly swept away.
Emperor Yongming is really obsessed with a mountain.
Queen Su was unexpectedly young, beautiful and gentle.
As for the crown prince, he was a year older than him, but he was shorter than him, a little sickly-looking, his face was thin, and his eyes were extraordinarily large, looking at his gaze with curiosity and friendliness.
Xu Jing's heart moved, and he opened his mouth and shouted: "Cousin! β
