The proposal was rejected again and he was hung up and beaten.
Li Yuanzhao walked out of the imperial study feeling lost.
If I had known this would happen, I should have given it some preparation. I am no longer familiar with the business, and I didn't expect my father to launch a sneak attack.
At this moment, he was in no mood and had no intention of going to Banshanfang again, so he went straight back to the East Palace.
After returning to Ciqing Palace, Li Yuanzhao felt upset for no reason.
He waved his hand and drove away the eunuchs and palace maids, leaving only Liu Jin serving by his side.
I sat there with my eyes wide open, not knowing what to do.
It was already noon.
Seeing this, Liu Jin leaned over and asked, "Your Highness, are you hungry? I will go and prepare some food for you."
Li Yuanzhao shook his head and sighed, "No, I have no appetite."
"Alas, I used to feel that Lao Fang had endless things to do every day. Now that he is gone, I don't know what to do."
Liu Jin's eyes lit up: "Your Highness, are you lonely and bored? Then I'll go get you some tigers and leopards to relieve your boredom..."
"Shut up! You useless thing! Besides teasing cats and dogs, can't you come up with some new tricks?"
Li Yuanzhao had a look of hatred on his face, but now he had gotten over vulgar tastes.
What's so fun about just two or three kittens!
Liu Jin smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Highness, whatever you want to play, I can accompany you."
"Can you run a newspaper?"
“Can you do disaster relief?”
"Can you recite poetry?"
Li Yuanzhao looked at Liu Jin with disdain.
Liu Jin's expression froze and he was speechless.
Li Yuanzhao waved his hand and said, "Forget it! I don't think you know how to do it. You just wave that broken magnifying glass in front of me!"
"Go, find me some books to read. Old Fang always asks me to read. Now I have nothing to do, so I'll just read some!"
Liu Jin understood everything, and went to get the books. After a while, he came back with a pile of books.
He placed the books on Li Yuanzhao's desk and spread them out one by one.
"Wives and Concubines Like Clouds", "Xiaoyao Sanxian", "Golden Scales"......
Li Yuanzhao's face gradually darkened. He looked at Liu Jin expressionlessly, then suddenly overturned the table in front of him!
All kinds of indescribable books were scattered all over the floor.
Before Liu Jin could come to his senses, he heard Li Yuanzhao's angry shout: "You idiot! Can't you see that I'm not in the mood now? Is this what I want to see?!"
"Oh, it's really useless!"
"Forget it! Clean up the floor! Stop reading and bring me all the newspapers!"
Liu Jin knelt on the ground in fear and began to pick up the scattered books.
But I kept complaining in my heart, didn’t I watch it every day before...Now I have to act serious again...Alas!
After cleaning up, Liu Jin turned around to get the newspaper.
Since the newspaper was built, Li Yuanzhao developed a habit of keeping a copy of the daily newspaper in the Eastern Palace.
I don’t have any other ideas, the main reason is that the daily newspaper bears my name.
Sometimes when I go back to the East Palace to take a look, I feel a special sense of accomplishment.
After Liu Jin took back the newspaper, Li Yuanzhao sat down at the desk and began to read it one by one.
Look at the contents of the newspaper.
Sometimes giggle, sometimes frown.
Liu Jin stood aside, taking the time to glance sideways, and when he had nothing to do, he lifted up his clothes to wipe his magnifying glass.
The sky gradually darkened, the oil lamps on the table had been lit, and in the main hall, Liu Jin was still busy lighting candles.
Li Yuanzhao finally finished reading all the newspapers.
He sighed with relief.
Muttered: "It has to be Lao Fang... He is so brave..."
Then he asked Liu Jin, "Liu Banban, I want to ask you, if I have something to report to the emperor repeatedly but he still doesn't agree, what should I do next?"
Liu Jin stopped what he was doing and said seriously, "Then His Majesty must have his own plan."
"What if I have to do it?"
"This...I don't know!" Liu Jin put on a bitter face and said, "Don't ask me about this, okay?"
How could I, a eunuch, understand or dare to speak?
Li Yuanzhao raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't dare to say it? Okay! Then I'll ask you again, if Lao Xiang reported to the emperor and he didn't agree, what would he do?"
Liu Jin looked embarrassed.
Don’t ask...don’t ask...I can’t afford to offend any of them!
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Li Yuanzhao stared at him with burning eyes: "Speak! Tell me the truth! If you dare to say anything nonsense, I will smash your magnifying glass!"
Liu Jin trembled all over and said in despair: "If His Majesty doesn't agree, there's nothing anyone can do!"
"Master Fang is usually with you, and I don't know what he should do! Your Highness, I really don't understand!"
"Okay, you can go down now!" Li Yuanzhao drove Liu Jin away.
At this time, he was the only one sitting in the hall.
Although many candles were lit, the hall still seemed dark and silent.
Li Yuanzhao was thinking hard.
If it was Lao Fang...what would he do?
Like me, he won't do that!
Lao Fang has been in court for such a long time, and he basically never speaks. When he speaks, he only reports good news, not bad news. When the emperor sees him, he just smiles foolishly.
Normally, he would do things first and then think about them...and he never reported to his father.
The same is true for something as big as a newspaper...
After thinking hard for a long time, Li Yuanzhao's eyes flashed with enlightenment, and he shouted: "Liu Banban! Liu Banban! Where have you been! Get over here!"
Liu Jin was guarding the door and ran in in a panic.
Li Yuanzhao smiled and said, "Eunuch Guo is your godfather?"
Liu Jin was a little overwhelmed and said hesitantly: "Yes..."
"Is the Shangbaojian in his charge? Is he in the Shangbaojian at this hour?"
Liu Jin still nodded with a confused look on his face.
Li Yuanzhao smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, go find me two reliable guards, and don't let anyone know. If others find out, I will castrate you again!"
"I understand! I'll go right away!" Liu Jin didn't ask any more questions. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and ran out.
His Highness is acting very abnormal today. He seems a little moody. So whatever he says is what it is!
Soon, Liu Jin arrived with two guards.
When Li Yuanzhao saw people coming, he said directly: "You three, come with me, and don't talk on the way!"
After saying that, he walked straight out without waiting for the three people to react.
It was already dark outside, and the night patrol palace guards had already begun patrolling the palace.
Li Yuanzhao led the three of them hurriedly to the Shangbao Palace. Someone asked them on the way, but when he saw that it was the prince, he said no more.
They arrived at the Shangbao Palace smoothly. Li Yuanzhao told three people to wait outside the hall, and he strode in alone.
When he arrived at the hall, a eunuch came to greet him. Li Yuanzhao didn't say much. After asking for Guo Tianyang's location, he went to look for him by himself.
When Guo Tianyang saw that it was Li Yuanzhao who came, he immediately put on a smile and said, "Hey, Your Highness, why are you here at this time?"
