Maybe I was too nervous these past few days. I felt particularly tired after dinner. After taking a shower, I wanted to rest early, but I saw a pile of memorials on the table that was taller than a person...
Being an emperor is really a high-risk job.
She pounded her waist and dragged her tired legs over, but was grabbed by Chu Dichi and taken to the bed.
"We'll deal with it tomorrow. Go to sleep first."
Chu Li pushed him away and said, "There are many things that cannot be delayed. I have to finish reading it quickly."
"If you can transfer a little of your serious thoughts to me, I won't have to worry so much."
"?"
Chu Li didn't understand.
Chu Dichi sighed softly, hugged her waist and told her to go to sleep.
She refused.
Then we have to use the simplest and most primitive method.
After coaxing her to sleep, he blew out the candle, held her in his arms for a while, then got up to look at the memorials. When Chu Li woke up the next day, he found that all the memorials on the table had been approved.
Every letter has been approved!
The review was very good.
Chu Li took the memorial and looked at the words on it, feeling heavy-hearted.
As soon as the officials saw the red-ink comments on the memorial, they could guess from the handwriting that it was the regent's. It was well known that she, the new emperor who was about to ascend the throne, was... a puppet.
She rubbed her brows tiredly, "Gou Ba, grind the ink for me!"
She has several secret letters to write.
When Gou Ba was grinding ink, his expression was obscure, and his hesitant look made it clear that it was related to the Regent.
Since the Emperor of Chu was paralyzed, the Regent has been acting ostentatiously. He enters and leaves the Zhaolan Palace openly and even stays overnight in the Zhaolan Palace. Anyone with eyes can guess what is going on.
Chu Li hasn't gone out yet.
If she goes out, she doesn't know how those people will look at her.
Just thinking about it, I can imagine that scene.
Chu Li quickly drafted several secret orders and said seriously, "Give it to Concubine Wen, keep it well, and don't let anyone know."
"yes!"
Gou Ba held them tightly in his arms.
When he went out, he bumped into the Regent who was walking towards him. He subconsciously covered his chest, lowered his head and trotted out.
Chu Dichi glanced sideways, looking thoughtful:
"Where is he going?"
Chu Li stood up: "I asked him to invite Concubine Wen to have dinner together later."
"oh."
He didn't ask any more questions.
"Where have you been?"
He was a little surprised, "Are you actively caring about me?"
Chu Li's throat tightened, and he pinched his fingers, trying to change the subject. He was afraid that he would stare at Gou Ba, so he asked another question.
"No."
Chu Dichi walked towards her slowly, smiling.
Chu Li stepped back. "You go and handle the affairs of the General's Mansion. Since it was your will to let Qin Muyu go to Southern Xinjiang, you should personally handle the matters of recruiting troops and going on the expedition."
The smile on the man's face froze slightly:
"Are you worried about him so much?"
Chu Li said, "You have been in Southern Xinjiang for many years and have a wealth of experience. I believe you will be willing to teach me everything you know. If General Qin is killed or injured in Southern Xinjiang, I will not be able to rule with peace of mind."
Chu Dichi gradually narrowed his eyes.
Is this a threat to him?
Oh!
When Young General Qin leaves the capital and goes to southern Xinjiang, he will be out of reach and it will depend on whether she can still be worried about him all day long.
"The Ministry of War has arranged it. He is not worthy of my personal attention."
Chu Li looked at him: "Didn't you say you were here to assist me? You didn't even listen to my first order. How about I give you the throne?"
Chu Dichi's expression suddenly became gloomy.
She put on all that airs of a new emperor just for a man!
good.
She is fine.
"I will naturally obey the orders of the new emperor! Don't worry, I will escort Young General Qin out of the capital in a good manner!" These few words were almost squeezed out from between his teeth.
After saying that, he turned away.
Chu Li watched him walk away before he closed the door, ran to the cupboard, and rummaged through the drawers looking for something.
Check here.
Look there.
Touch here and crawl there.
Half an hour later, she came out of Zhaolan Palace with her clothes bulging. Nuanyu in the courtyard looked at her, thoughtful for a moment.
On this day, Chu Dichi was busy in the military camp, and Chu Li was also quickly doing his own personal business.
In the evening, Chu Di returned to the palace, and Nuan Yu reported privately:
"Master, the Ninth Prince left the palace today and did not bring anyone with him."
Even Gou Ba was not brought.
Looking at the appearance, I don’t know what he did.
Chu Dichi paused slightly and said, "Let Chongfeng check it out. You should keep a close eye on it on weekdays."
"yes."
He walked into Zhaolan Palace and saw Chu Li eating dinner by himself.
Didn't wait for him.
What a heartless person.
"I've been busy all day with General Qin's affairs, and you didn't even wait for me to eat?"
Chu Li asked back, "You want to eat, who dares to neglect you? There is no food in the Regent Palace? There is no food in the Linhua Palace? Besides, this is my palace. Do I have to ask you for permission before I eat dinner? Otherwise, you can sit on the throne."
Chu Dichi rolled up his sleeves and pulled out a chair in a familiar manner:
"I don't deserve the new emperor's kindness."
Don't think she can't hear the joking meaning in this statement.
Chu Li quickly finished his meal and went to the Yangxin Palace to see Emperor Chu, then went to see Concubine Wen, and ran back to the Zhaolan Palace.
at night.
The panting sound swayed with the red candle, and turned into tranquility in the night as deep as water. The two people on the couch hugged each other tightly.
A thin layer of sweat dripped onto her forehead, and the man said in a deep voice:
"You left the palace today?"
Chu Li turned over and faced away from him. "I leave the palace every day, not just today."
"But when you left the palace in the past, you mostly went out to play with the Eighth Prince. But today you didn't invite the Eighth Prince with you, nor did you go to the General's Mansion, nor did you go to the Wen family. What did you do?"
Chu Li was slightly startled: "You are monitoring me?"
"The current situation is turbulent and the regime is unstable. I am just worried about you."
Chu Li sneered.
That sounds really nice.
He knew her every move, and he said it was for her own good?
"Since you sent someone to follow me, why don't you just ask your informant what I did and where I went? Why are you asking me?"
"Xiao Jiu..."
"I slept!"
She grabbed the quilt, wrapped half of her head, snuggled in, closed her eyes, and stopped talking.
Chu Di called her several times, but she didn't respond.
He really didn't monitor her.
It was Nuanyu who reported that her behavior was strange, so he sent people to investigate. After all, she was always eccentric and had many tricks up her sleeve, so he was afraid that she would run away.
"Don't be angry."
He hugged her from behind, his chest pressed tightly and seamlessly against her back, "Xiao Jiu."
"Falling asleep?"
"Xiao Jiu?"
All that was left for him was a dark back of her head. From her breathing, he could tell that she was not asleep, but just didn't want to pay attention to him.
For some reason, his right eyelid twitched violently and he always had a bad feeling.
If the left eye twitches, it means good fortune; if the right eye twitches, it means disaster.
He hugged her tightly, feeling her body temperature and softness, breathing in her fragrance, and felt a little more at ease.
