Chapter 198: Growing old together

Seeing that his son was so confident, Zhu Qizhen became even more curious.

He carried a pot and poured tea for his son, "Tell me carefully." ”

"Don't dare to ......" Zhu Jianshen hurriedly held the teacup and made amends before he spoke: "Actually, my father is too worried, whether it is Wang Yue or Wang Zhi, it is just a knife from Erchen, and this knife will be sheathed after all." ”

Zhu Qizhen nodded lightly and frowned: "The question is how to get into the sheath, this is what my father is worried about." ”

"It's not difficult to get into the sheath, as long as you provoke contradictions between the two sides."

Hearing this, Zhu Qizhen couldn't hide his disappointment, "You take it for granted, those people are not stupid, how can you be sure that they will be in the nest?" Also, do you want to reward people for their meritorious service?

The civilian-bureaucratic clique is still very united in major matters, and your divisive plan may work. ”

Zhu Jianshen was silent and sighed: "Why doesn't my father want to think about it, if Erchen is a person who takes it for granted, can he do this?" ”

"Uh......" Zhu Qizhen was embarrassed and said, "Father doesn't doubt your ability, it's just ...... A little worried, afraid that there will be a mistake in the country handed down by the ancestors and ancestors, you should calm your father's heart. ”

paused, "Of course, if you don't want to say it, then don't say it, my father has no intention of interfering in the government." ”

Zhu Jianshen said: "Since my father and emperor have said so, my son will not hide it." ”

Taking a sip of tea, he explained: "Actually, Wang Yue can't become much of a climate, and most of the power delegated by his sons is concentrated in Wang Zhi's hands, even if he wants to do it twice, it is extremely difficult to do it." ”

"If you have made meritorious service, you will naturally be rewarded." Zhu Jianshen said calmly, "It's not a secret, Erchen still wants Wang Yue to concurrently serve as the chief soldier of Datong......"

"Are you crazy?"

Zhu Qizhen was a little angry: "How can the Xuanda General Soldier be a person at the same time? ”

"Let's hear me finish." Zhu Jianshen said.

“…… You said. ”

"I said, more than half of the decentralized power is in the hands of Wang Zhi, Wang Yue can't make much waves at all, Wang Zhi supports, he is the general soldier of Xuanda who is in the limelight, Wang Zhi does not support it, he can't move an inch, of course, I will give him a knighthood to compensate."

Zhu Qizhen asked, "You trust that Wang Zhi so much?" ”

"I believe him," Zhu Jianshen nodded, "Of course, I don't blindly believe in him, Wang Zhi can't turn the sky either, he is just a eunuch, and he is only a twenty-two-year-old eunuch, his promotion speed is too fast, he has offended too many people, the tall buildings are too fast, and the foundation is destined to be unstable, so he must rely on me." ”

paused, "Wang Zhi has an advantage, that is, ruthlessness, and it is his ruthlessness that can make such a difference!" ”

"My support, coupled with his ruthlessness, is also a key factor in my success!" Zhu Jianshen took a sip of tea, "He has made great contributions to many major events such as cleaning up redundant bureaucrats and smuggling caravans...... He is capable and loyal, and in the big picture, he can only be faithful! ”

At the end, Zhu Jianshen said: "One sentence shows that I didn't let Wang Yue and Wang Zhi concurrently serve as the chief soldier of Xuanda, but I wanted to concurrently serve as the chief soldier of Xuanda, and the chief soldier of Xuanda was me!" ”

Speaking of thirst, Zhu Jianshen drank all the tea that was no longer hot in one gulp, and asked lightly: "Does my father still have doubts?" ”

Zhu Qizhen's old face turned red, both ashamed and self-deprecating, "It's gone, it's my father's stupidity." ”

Zhu Jianshen saw him like this, and he also realized that he was talking too much, a little ......

Hurt him!

So, Zhu Jianshen changed his words and chuckled: "My father is also worried about state affairs, but he doesn't know what's going on." ”

Zhu Qizhen shook his head with a wry smile, and said to himself: "I don't look at my own level, I still want to guide others......"

sighed and said happily: "Da Ming has you, my father is very relieved, and my father will not worry about this in the future." ”

Zhu Jianshen was also a little embarrassed, and smiled reservedly: "Where, the sons and daughters also have many shortcomings, and they need to learn from their father." ”

"Want me to learn? What to learn? ”

I'll just be polite, you are still serious...... Zhu Jianshen was a little speechless, but he didn't dare to say it, he was afraid that his old father would be angry.

Zhu Qizhen laughed at himself and sighed: "You have a lot of opportunities, my father won't keep you, go and get busy." ”

"The retainers retired." Zhu Jianshen got up and shook it, turned around and walked out of the main hall.

"How?"

"It's my husband who is idle, he's much better than me." Zhu Qizhen sighed, ashamed, but more relieved.

Qian said with a smile: "That husband can rest assured in the future." ”

"Well, you can rest assured." Zhu Qizhen nodded and said, "Rest quickly, you have been awake for a long time." ”

"The concubine is not sleepy," Qian sat up slowly, "Husband, let's go see the snow." ”

"What's so nice about the snow, it's so cold outside, don't go and don't go." Zhu Qizhen said in a sullen voice: "Can you go out with this body?" ”

"The concubine wants to see it."

“…… Then dress warmer. Zhu Qizhen didn't refuse again, he read his wife's eyes.

If you don't do something now, you won't have a chance in the future.

Qian wore two layers of cotton clothes and a big cover, and the old couple went out......

"It's such a big snow," Qian exclaimed, "I haven't seen such a big snow in a long time, it's... It's spectacular. ”

In Jinling these years, there is snow every winter, but it can't be compared with here at all, and the goose feathers and heavy snow are whirring, and the slaves and maids can't sweep it.

Zhu Qizhen stretched out his palm and caught a few snowflakes, but before he could appreciate it, it had melted.

He regretted it, regretted that this beauty was too short.

"Husband..."

"Well, what's wrong?" Zhu Qizhen restrained his emotions and said with a warm smile, "Are you tired?" ”

"No," Qian shook his head slightly, "remember what you promised your concubine?" ”

"What?"

“…… After the concubine leaves, you take a concubine. Qian was a little displeased, "It's only been a long time before I forgot it." ”

Her thin body looks thinner and thinner under the rendering of the heavy snow, just like this snowflake, which looks beautiful, but it is difficult to last.

Zhu Qizhen lowered his head slightly, his eyes were slightly wet, and his voice was low and hoarse, "Don't worry, my husband won't break his promise." ”

"Okay."

"That's it." Zhu Qizhen's head was lowered, his back was bent, his body was rickety, and his voice was inaudible.

He grabbed her wrist, which was so emaciated that it seemed to break with a little force.

He tried to suppress his sorrow, but his eyes were dim, and he looked up at the snowflakes.

It was cold, and his heart was even colder.

It was so cold that it suffocated him......

"Little money, let's go back to the house."

"Let's go again." Qian said, "Maybe there won't be such a snow scene in the future." ”

Of course there was in the future, but she didn't.

"Then let's go again." Zhu Qizhen is obedient.

The snow was very heavy, and the old couple in the snow quickly turned white, and Qian said with a smile: "This can be regarded as a white head and old together." ”

"yes." Zhu Qizhen nodded dumbly, raised his hand and wanted to brush off the snow for her, but was rejected by the Qian family, "Don't, how beautiful it is." ”

She raised her face and asked, "Husband, is the concubine good-looking?" ”

"It's good-looking, it's good-looking." Zhu Qizhen said with a smile, "It's as good-looking as when I married into the palace." ”

Qian said with a smile: "The husband is used to coaxing people, and the concubines are old, where can it be compared to that time." ”

"It's comparable, it's not worse than then." Zhu Qizhen said in a dumb voice, "Xiaoqian has always been so good-looking. ”

Qian smiled sweetly, and this time, she didn't refute......

The two of them walked around for another half an hour, and then returned to Changle Palace.

When she returned, Qian fell asleep, and she was already tired.

This night, she slept for a long time, from the afternoon until late at night before waking up.

Zhu Qizhen has been by the bedside, and when he saw her waking up quietly, he hurriedly said, "It's not a big deal, right?" ”

Qian shook his head weakly.

"Husband, go to warm the medicine, it will be fine immediately."

"Husband..."

Qian stopped him, "The concubine doesn't want to drink medicine." ”

"How can you not drink medicine." Zhu Qizhen was a little excited, "Don't be a child, my husband will add some sugar to you, obedient, ah~"

After that, regardless of whether Qian agreed or not, he hurriedly walked to the stove to warm the medicine.

He clumsily searched for the candy, but with a trembling hand, he poured a bag of candy into it.

"Oops......" He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, his mood was unprecedentedly irritable, he couldn't help but get angry, but he couldn't help it.

Hurriedly brought another bowl, vacated the candy that had not yet melted, put an appropriate amount of candy, and rewarmed it.

"Alright, alright, now it'......" he muttered, looking back from time to time to see his wife smiling at him.

The smile is very gentle, and the smile is good.

He also replied with a smile, and his smile was also gentle, and his smile was ugly.

After a while, he came to the bedside with the warm medicine, scooped it with a spoon, and said as he blew:

"This medicine is definitely not bitter today, my husband has added five sugars to you, I don't believe you can taste it."

"yes, okay." Qian smiled and nodded.

Zhu Qizhen helped her up, let her lean on his arms, fed the medicine gently, and said softly: "The New Year will be in a few days, let's sit on the grandparents, and prepare red envelopes and gifts for Youzhu and Youqi, you know, the husband is clumsy, he can't get these, and he can't get ...... them."

He said, "You grandmother, you have to pay more attention, children are the most difficult to serve, don't dislike it then, this is the first year we come back, we have to show an elder......"

"Husband......

Zhu Qizhen's body trembled, his gushing words stopped abruptly, and the smile he pretended to be fixed on his face.

"Hey."

"Don't be upset."

"No, no, husband is not sad." He didn't realize it, and his tears were denser than words.

Qian wanted to help him wipe away his tears, but he was powerless, so he just smiled reluctantly, "The husband didn't cheat on the concubine, it's really sweet." ”

"Really?" Zhu Qizhen seemed to be a little proud, "When did the husband deceive you?" ”

"Hmm...," Qian muttered, "Husband, the concubine is sleepy." ”

"Don't be sleepy, don't be sleepy," Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but howl, tears burst into tears, "I can't sleep, you can't sleep, my husband won't let you sleep, Xiao Qian, don't go so fast, slowly, you let your husband ...... slowly"

"Concubine, concubine as much as possible." Qian really held this breath, "Husband doesn't cry......"

"Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry......" Zhu Qizhen's body trembled, shook his head frantically, hugged her tightly, and cried miserably......

The big tears seemed to beg for her mercy......
