CHAPTER XXXII
Xu Jichen didn't dare to delay with the medicine box on his back, returned to the Imperial Doctor's Office, picked up an oil lamp and crouched beside the desk, and prepared to report the emperor's situation tonight to Yao Pu.
Halfway through writing, the candle flame kept jumping, and when he sensed that someone was coming, he hurriedly put his things away, opened the medical book in his hand, and flipped his fingers at will.
"Xu Sheng." A very logous, muddy old voice.
Xu Jichen breathed a sigh of relief, he stepped down and sat on the couch, straightened his clothes, and then opened the door and bowed to the people outside the door: "Mr. Gu." ”
Xu Jichen and Gu Gusheng greeted him in.
"Why hasn't Gu Lao rested yet?"
Gu Gusheng smiled kindly, and the little old man's back was a little rickety: "I was going to rest, but I heard that the Deqing Palace summoned me...... Lao Ji is willing to help. Gu Gusheng stopped talking, and he looked at Xu Jichen: This little student is smart and naturally knows what he means.
Xu Jichen also looked back at him with a smile and said: "Gu Lao has excellent medical skills, and it will only be safe to have you remember Your Majesty, but this time Your Majesty is fine, and Xiaosheng can be cured." ”
Gu Gusheng's heart was put into his stomach at this time: "That's fine, the old man is also afraid that His Majesty will not be good if he has left some disease at a young age." ”
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty is just a nightmare and heart palpitations, and it's fine."
Gu Gusheng saw that Xu Jichen didn't want to say more, so he stroked his clothes and stood up: "Even so, the old man went back first." ”
Xu Jichen bowed to him: "Gu Lao walks slowly." ”
Gu Gusheng walked on the stone road and thought to himself: This Xu family child doesn't want to talk to me more, if what he said is true, then it really shouldn't be, the tranquilizer used by the emperor shouldn't cause tonight's situation...
The next day, the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Yao Pu sat behind the bookcase in court clothes, and looked at the note that Xu Jichen sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion: Your Majesty had a nightmare hysteria last night, his body trembled, and he looked like an idiot.
I sat in this study all night last night, and I felt tired at this moment, Yao Pu pinched the note in the palm of his hand and closed his eyes tiredly...... I don't know what to do for a while.
Qiu Ji stayed outside the house, the desk lamp inside was on for a night, she wanted to go in several times and stopped, until about the hour, she entered the door and reminded loudly: "The head of the house should go to court." ”
Yao Pu opened his eyes, burned the candle flame on the case to ashes, and then he put the paper ashes into the handkerchief, and the white handkerchief instantly had more black traces like Qimo.
He pushed open the door: "Let's go." ”
In the Deqing Palace, Jiang Churan Linluan found that his face was pale, his eyes were blue, and the dressing palace maid who was waiting next to him dipped some incense powder and wanted to cover the emperor's dark circles.
Jiang Churan dodged back and said, "No need, just coil up your hair." ”
"Yes."
She thought: Her face is worse, so that Yao Pu will be easier to speak. After all, she'd used this method to skept her most hated game class many times.
……
On the Jinluan Palace, Jiang Churan sat on the dragon chair, and the ministers below knelt down, and she glanced at Yao Pu from time to time.
"Aiqing is flat, and there is something to do."
Chaozhong was silent for a while, and then Zhao Qianwei, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, stood up, she held the wat board in her hand and said, "The minister has a book. ”
Jiang Churan only glanced at her, and his gaze inadvertently swept over Yao Pu: "Quasi." ”
"Your Majesty's previous reform of the imperial examination affairs was changed from once every two years to once a year, and the minister specially made a report on the reform of the imperial examination and asked His Majesty to take a look at it."
Hearing this, the faces of everyone above the hall have changed, and in this way, there will be a big reshuffle in the court!
On the contrary, Mu Yizhu didn't have too many expressions, but the hand holding the wat board was so hard that her fingertips turned white, and she remembered that the emperor with a compassionate expression asked her: "If the imperial examination is once a year, will Aiqing suffer less?" ”
Before Jiang Churan could speak, a minister stood up and objected: "Your Majesty! This will not only increase the burden on the national treasury, but will also lead to the risk of redundant officials and redundant personnel in the future. ”
There were more and more officials who were opposed, Jiang Churan's eyes were cold, and he scolded secretly: These are standing horses.
But she didn't have the strength to deal with them at the moment, so she said: "Aiqing will present the recital, and I will discuss it after reading it." ”
"Yes." Du Tingwei retreated, and as soon as Jiang Churan's words came out, the opposing voices also stopped a lot, and there was still a chance to "discuss again".
It's a pity that Jiang Churan didn't take a breath yet, and saw Yao Pu also stand up, with a cold expression: "The minister has a book." ”
Jiang Churan looked at him, didn't feel uncomfortable for a while, suppressed the panic in his heart and said, "Quasi-play." ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister's family sent a letter to his grandmother who died of illness, and the minister asked to dismiss the official and return home to keep filial piety."
Yao Pu said something, the court was quiet for a moment, Yao Pu lowered his head, hiding his expression, his family did have faith, but not only the news of his grandmother's death, but told him to try his best to stay in the court.
Even Jiang Churan's expression froze on his face: "Cheng... Appearance. But after all, he didn't say anything.
And she suddenly died down, but it caused a discussion among the ministers below: "Now that the national government is not stable, go to the ministers first..."
Jiang Churan looked at Yao Pu with a complicated expression, what does it mean to be dismissed, she doesn't believe that Yao Pu doesn't know, even if the court re-recruits after a year of filial piety, it is unknown whether it can occupy a place in this court...... Is he really willing to give up?
……
Out of the Jinluan Palace, the ministers around Yao Pu saluted him and said goodbye, and he also bent down to return the salute.
"Prime Minister."
Yao Pu looked back at the source of the sound, it turned out to be Yun Zhi: "Aunt Yun." ”
Yun Zhi said: "Your Majesty asked you to go over." ”
After Yun Zhi finished speaking, he left, and Li Shu behind him patted Yao Pu on the shoulder: "Your Majesty has affection for you, don't worry about Brother Chengye." ”
Yao Pu was silent, what was he worried about? Worried that the emperor would not keep him? Leave a feeling?
The emperor whom I have exalted is suspicious of me and murders me.
Yao Pu made a flat gesture at Li Shu, turned around and followed the direction of Yunzhi.
Yun Zhi stood outside the Hsinchu Hall and said to him, "Your Majesty is inside." ”
Yao Pu nodded, pushed open the Linghua door, and walked in with a puff of robes, the smell of ambergris faded.
Jiang Churan stood in front of the window, her beautiful figure was lined with a black dragon robe, and she took off her drooping crown, and her hair was slow to go crazy with the breeze.
"Your Majesty."
Jiang Churan turned around when he heard his voice, stepped forward and personally helped the person up: "The teacher is very polite." ”
Yao Pu withdrew his hand, and his gaze fell on Jiang Churan's wrist, the beaded chain looked really good on her, a jade wrist.
Jiang Churan noticed his gaze, and also saw the bead chain that she had snatched last night, with an unnatural smile on his face.
Before the emperor could say anything, Yao Pu took the first step and said: "The military affairs of the northwest are important, and Your Majesty should discuss things with the courtiers more. ”
His face deceived frost and snow, Jiang Churan was sullen in his heart, Yao Pu was not like this before, and her tone was also aggrieved: "I still have to rely on the teacher." ”
Yao Pu looked at her with low eyes, compared to the Jinluan Palace, he looked at the person closely, the dark blue under his eyes was very obvious, thinking of what Xu Jichen said, his heart was still a little softer.
"Can the teacher not leave?"
Yao Pu laughed and said, "Why did Your Majesty keep your ministers?" His Majesty the Northwest Military Power has also taken it back..."
His meaning is obvious: Your Majesty, you don't trust me anyway, and now you have a great opportunity to kick me out of the court, so why keep me anymore.
Jiang Churan was silent, she was fiddling with the bead chain, although Yao Pu complained like this, she would not return this thing.
Yao Pu sighed, as if helplessly: "Your Majesty said that the minister's ten virtues are not complete, isn't it that the minister is left in the court in order to punish the crime, and he is unwilling to retreat from the minister, and it is best for the minister to die in prison?" ”
Jiang Churan was surprised: "How is it possible? Then he said with a hurt face: "I am this cruel in the teacher's heart..."
"The teacher is my humerus, I can't live without you." She looked up and found that Yao Pu didn't believe it, and no one would believe it in this case.
Jiang Churan closed his eyes sadly, and said after a long while: "I was sick last night, and the national teacher said that I was as crazy as the first emperor at that time. ”
Before he finished speaking, cracks appeared on Yao Pu's indifferent face, and the inexplicable emotions in his eyes were surging.
Jiang Churan smiled sadly at him: "Yao Xiang, there are really people in the palace who want to kill me." ”
Yao Pu lowered his eyes to look at her, the emperor in front of him was vivid, she seemed to be really scared and even her eyelashes were trembling slightly, Yao Pusheng suppressed the urge to raise his feet and take people into his arms, and his thin lips snorted: "Your Majesty..."
Jiang Churan sighed and interrupted him: "I only believe in you. ”
She turned around and walked to the dragon case, picked up the wooden box on the table, took out the contents of the contents, and walked in front of Yao Pu.
He was still wearing that piece of inferior jade, which was originally himself..., thinking of this, Jiang Churan's hand trembled a little, and he didn't take off the inferior jade on his big belt very neatly, and personally brought this piece of her most precious ancient pine and Tian jade to him.
Yao Pu knew that this was not in line with etiquette, and the emperor did not have to do this no matter how much he favored the courtiers, but Yao Pu did not stop her, his face was forbearing, and his hands trembled with restraint.
"I was wrong."
Yao Pu's voice was dumbfounded: "Your Majesty, you have to think about the matter of winning love." ”
Jiang Churan nodded and said, "I will issue a decree, and I will not let the teacher be criticized." ”
