Chapter 206 Crown Prince Zhao Chen
The next morning, an imperial edict ordering Zhao Chen to attend court completely shattered all his plans.
Although his mother had given him some information in advance, it was only after New Year's Eve. Zhao Chen's plan to feign illness also started after New Year's Eve. Now..., he could only laugh.
Zhao Chen spent the entire day in boredom. On the morning of the third day, he put on the crown and robes of the crown prince with a heroic spirit, and forced himself to go to the Chuigong Palace.
He was in a daze all the way, and finally waited for his stepfather outside the Chuigong Palace. He stepped on the eunuchs' chants of "The emperor has arrived, and all officials should attend court", followed his father into the palace, and then found a place to stay at the father's fingertips, and began his boring political life.
At first, Zhao Chen was still thinking about looking around. He glanced at his uncle beside him and wanted to speak, but was stopped by the other party with his eyes. Then he looked at Uncle Wang of Hejian opposite him, but found that the guy was disrespectful and kept making faces at him, but he couldn't understand what he meant.
After a while, Zhao Chen felt a little bored. The civil officials were resting with their eyes closed, the military generals were dozing off, and the old man Yuwen Xuzhong was even drooling in his sleep.
He tilted his head to look at his father. Now his father was in the same state as him. He yawned from time to time through the memorial in his hand, and at the end he raised his eyebrows at him as if in protest.
The higher the free floor, the greater the talent and knowledge, doesn't it? In this way, our reputation will be greatly enhanced, and all scholars will be proud to be able to go to the fourth and fifth floors. However, not all of them can go up, so they have to take care of the business below us.
There was no way. My dad had a memorial to cover him so he could yawn, but I couldn't. I had to endure it.
Of course, there were also spirited individuals in the court, such as Niu Gao, the man who had the audacity to snatch the emperor's military coat. Far from being sleepy, this bastard was actually quite energetic, constantly picking his nose and flicking it at those he disliked, earning them glares, yet he never tired of it.
The officials kept talking about trivial matters, such as auspicious signs in certain places, rare discoveries in certain places, and even the fact that the incense offerings at Ci'en Temple had increased.
Just when he was bored and was thinking about how to run his oil press, he found Niu Gao glaring at him.
Seeing the old devil's eyes almost flying out of their sockets, Zhao Chen couldn't understand what he wanted to express.
Finally, Yuwen Xuzhong couldn't bear it any longer, so he opened the memorial in his hand, found four words on it, and pointed them out to Zhao Chen one by one.
"Someone is impeaching me." Zhao Chen's eyes widened instantly and he looked directly at Niu Gao. After getting the old devil's affirmative answer, he became Spartan.
It wasn't because someone was impeaching him, but he was just curious about what these people in the court were up to. How on earth did his uncle detect the words "impeachment" among the flying eyeballs?
As for who wants to impeach him, Zhao Chen doesn't care. With his uncle Yuwen Xu Zhong around, as long as he doesn't rebel, he doesn't believe anyone can support him in the court.
But why is Niu Gao still moving his eyes? They're still moving like they did just now. Does Old Cheng also know that important things should be said three times?
Yuwen Xuzhong handed the memorial over again and found four words from it: 'disperse, come to the court, say goodbye, and go'.
"Oh my god!" Zhao Chen felt like he was not feeling well.
These old guys are so difficult to deal with. The same look can convey different meanings, even more amazing than the sign language of special forces in later generations.
Thinking about having to deal with these guys every day in the future, Zhao Chen finally understood why his mother looked at him with such sympathy a few days ago.
I didn't expect that girls of this era would be so bold and aggressive when they were in love. Zhao Huan couldn't help sighing. This guy was the typical type who would get easily tempted by a woman's lap. These girls were young and although they couldn't be said to be particularly beautiful, they were still tempting apples. It was really difficult for him to just look at them without eating them.
Fortunately, he often thought of Zhao Fujin who was working hard to decorate the restaurant outside. Although she had not said it clearly, her true feelings for Zhao Huan had already been obvious. Thinking of how well-behaved and obedient the girl was, Zhao Huan made up his mind and suppressed the evil fire with great effort.
Zhao Huan had been here for the past few days, and although he felt comfortable and at ease, he missed the Dong family, father and daughter, and had long wanted to leave the house to visit them. However, he was now a servant, a waiter, and he had to ask for leave from the housekeeper to leave the house. The Xiao family strictly controlled the servants' departure, and there was something wrong between him and housekeeper Wang, so it was not easy for him to go out.
That day, Zhao Huan pestered Uncle Fu and finally got through his upper-level connections to ask for half a day off. He wanted to go and see how the restaurant was decorated, so he went directly to the Xuanwu Lake.
Arriving at the restaurant, they saw that the sign for Delicious Food had been taken down, and dozens of craftsmen were busy with the renovations. The renovation plan was all decided by Zhao Huan in advance; he wanted to run the restaurant according to his own ideas.
"Brother Lin." As soon as Zhao Fujin saw him, his eyes turned red and he rushed over to him.
Zhao Huan had been in the Xiao Mansion for dozens of days, and there had been no news of him during this period. Zhao Fujin was of course extremely anxious.
"Fu Jin, you have lost weight." Zhao Huan said to Zhao Fujin.
"Brother, you seem to have lost some weight." Zhao Fujin said with a sour nose, looking at Zhao Huan's face.
I've lost weight? Will drinking chicken soup and bird's nest every day also make me lose weight?
"Fu Jin, how is the decoration of our restaurant going?" Zhao Huan saw the girl's affectionate expression and tears flashing in her eyes, so he quickly changed the subject.
