Chapter 643 Everyone Comes to Ask for Leave
After hearing the emperor's words, Concubine Jing nodded seriously.
"Indeed, I only figured this out later. Before, I always thought she wasn't interested in men, but for Murong, she disregarded her status and secretly followed him to Beihan. Doesn't the emperor know what's going on?"
“………………”The emperor frowned.
I thought it was Wan'er's naughty act and did something ridiculous, and I really didn't think about it in that way.
I remember that boy Murong came here once when he was five or six years old, but I didn't expect that my daughter would always miss him.
Although the boy looked good and was quite likable back then, many years have passed.
I don’t know if that boy has grown up crooked and whether he is worthy of my daughter.
Seeing that the old man was more alert, Concubine Jing continued to work hard.
"Your Majesty, why don't you just fulfill your daughter's wish and agree to this marriage? Let her marry a man she loves. Wouldn't she be able to live happily like us then?"
After saying that, Concubine Jing took the initiative to move her mouth closer and kissed the emperor on the face.
"Can that kid compare with me?" The emperor looked at the little flower in his arms with dissatisfaction.
He didn't expect that he was so unimportant in her heart that she actually compared him with that young boy.
He is sincere to Xiaohua. If Murong is half as sincere as he is, he will agree to this marriage.
"Yes, yes, I was wrong. No one can compare to the emperor. The emperor is the best."
After saying that, she offered him a kiss, and the emperor's expression didn't look so ugly anymore.
"Then the Emperor has agreed?"
Concubine Jing hooked her arms around the emperor's neck and began to shake him, rubbing her soft body against him and making a soft sound that could squeeze out water.
How could the emperor resist such an attack? He was soon confused. Although reluctant, he still nodded.
"Well, but we'll have to wait until tomorrow to decide on this matter."
"Tomorrow? Why?" Concubine Jing frowned.
She looked at the emperor in front of her with confusion, obviously not understanding what he meant.
Seeing Xiaohua's unaware look, the emperor couldn't help but smile triumphantly.
"Hey, tonight is perfect, we can finalize it tomorrow!"
After saying that, he looked at Xiaohua Shengxue's skin in a lewd manner, licked his lips, and looked like he wanted to eat her up.
“…………”Princess Jing.
She glared at the emperor with a bad look. The old man remembered this matter clearly.
But judging from what he said, he must have agreed. For the sake of my daughter's happiness, I should satisfy him.
What's more, I'm not at a disadvantage. Just seeing how hard this old guy worked just now, I actually feel quite comfortable.
Maybe it’s because I’ve been in a good mood these days, and my demand for this has become stronger.
Seeing that Xiaohua had no objection, the emperor was overjoyed. Just as he was about to hold the softness in his arms for a while longer, he heard the voice of Eunuch Li outside.
"Your Majesty, Grand Tutor Sun requests an audience."
"Hmm?" The emperor looked up.
He frowned and looked towards the door, wondering why Master Sun came here at this time.
He took a look at Xiaohua in his arms and felt a little reluctant to leave, but still got up and put on his clothes. He kissed Xiaohua on the face and walked out reluctantly.
As soon as he arrived at the imperial study, he saw Tutor Sun who had been waiting there.
"What's the matter, Grand Tutor Sun?"
“…………”Teacher Sun.
Why does the emperor seem a little unhappy?
I don’t know who made him angry, but he looked so gloomy in the middle of the day.
But he still paid his respects to the emperor obediently.
"Your Majesty, I have come here specifically to ask for leave."
"Ask for leave? Why do you want leave?" The emperor frowned.
Lord Zhao had just been given leave, and now Grand Tutor Sun has come to ask for leave again. It seems that there has been nothing important happening recently, and he doesn't even want to attend court.
"Your Majesty, I haven't been home to worship my ancestors for several years. Now I want to go back and see them, so I came to ask for leave."
"Go home and offer sacrifices..." The emperor's face was long.
He only came to his senses halfway through his words. At his age, he was about to be buried and become an ancestor, but he still had to go back to worship his ancestors.
His ancestral home is in Qingzhou Prefecture, and now he is making plans to go back, obviously wanting to visit Chen'er too.
Although Doctor Sun's thoughts were seen through by the emperor, he did not show any embarrassment on his face and even smiled triumphantly.
"Haha, my clansmen said that my hometown is well built, so I thought I'd go back and take a look now that I'm not busy. It just so happens that I'm traveling the same way as Master Zhang."
I can't hold it in any longer when I say this. The last time I inspected Qingzhou Prefecture on the orders of the Emperor, there were already huge changes.
Now I have heard such miraculous things over there that I really want to go back and take a look. Coincidentally, I heard Lord Zhang say yesterday that King Chen asked him to survey water conservancy, which made me even more confused.
I can’t imagine how they can pump water and grow crops in the far north where the land is covered with thick rock layers.
In addition, because of what Lord Zhao said yesterday, it was so miraculous, I became even more curious. So I thought of going over to take a look and see if it was as weird as he said.
“………………”The emperor rolled his eyes in his heart.
The old man's thoughts were written all over his face. He looked at the letter of leave in his hand, but before he could say anything, Eunuch Li came to deliver another message.
"Your Majesty, General Cheng is here."
"What is he here for?" The emperor frowned again.
He glanced at Tutor Sun in front of him again. I wondered if these two old guys were discussing something.
“…………” Tutor Sun was also stunned.
It was obvious that he didn't expect Lao Cheng to come here at this time.
"Call him in."
"Yes." Eunuch Li nodded, and soon General Cheng strode in.
"Your humble servant greets His Majesty."
General Cheng saluted the emperor and glanced at Tutor Sun beside him.
"General Cheng, why are you here at this time?"
After saying that, he glanced at Tutor Sun in front of him, wondering if he was also here to ask for leave.
While he was thinking about it, General Cheng grinned before he could say anything.
"Haha, Your Majesty, I am here to ask for leave."
"......" The Emperor and Grand Tutor Sun were both stunned, then frowned and looked at him, saying in unison:
"What kind of leave did you take?"
“…………”General Cheng was also stunned.
It was obvious that he didn't expect the emperor and the others to ask the same question at the same time. He glared at Tutor Sun in dissatisfaction and bowed to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, I have been feeling unwell recently. Imperial Physician Zhang suggested that I go out for a walk more often to help me recover. That is why I have come to ask for leave from Your Majesty. I want to go out and relax."
After saying that, he glanced at Tutor Sun beside him. When he went to his house to look for him just now, he heard that he was going to Qingzhou Prefecture.
I've never heard this old guy say that before. If you want to leave secretly, it's impossible.
“…………”The emperor’s face became even gloomier.
He glared at General Cheng with dissatisfaction. It was just that he was not feeling well, but he still wanted to go to Chen'er's place.
If it is not approved, it will not be the same. If it is approved, I will not feel happy.
I've been there one by one, but I've never been there once.
Just when the emperor was hesitating, Eunuch Li came again to deliver a message.
"Your Majesty, Marquis Yongning requests an audience."
