Chapter 392 Discussing with Big Brother
“Can the situation be the same?
At that time, I thought that at best we were just local tycoons in a remote corner of Dongling Prefecture, and there was no technical knowledge involved. Of course, I could handle it by myself.
But this is a different time, don’t you know? My Emperor!
She said, "Shake it hard." She was very strong, so she grabbed Li Chengxiu's head and made him unable to move.
"I know, I know! Wife, please let go of me! You're shaking me to the point of vomiting!"
"Hmph, let's see if you can learn this lesson."
"Grow, grow, grow! I'm ready to grow it right now! Oh, wife, spare me, my ears are going to fall off!"
The emperor and empress were like two mandarin ducks embracing each other, pecking at each other playfully. The noises were not loud, but full of warmth.
The warm sunlight filtered through the window frames and onto the floor tiles in the hall, revealing a faint sense of envy.
Li Jinzhong stood quietly outside the hall, listening to the occasional laughter and scolding in the hall, and looked down at the whisk in his arm that was swaying in the wind.
A trace of sadness suddenly flashed through my heart.
He thought of his old master.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, whom he had served since he was a child, was obviously a man of extraordinary talent and was definitely much better than the current Emperor.
But he was truly unlucky. How could he have fallen for the vicious eldest daughter of the Song family? If he had fallen for the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, would everything have been different?
He raised his face expressionlessly, his eyes narrowed slightly at the dazzling sunlight. As expected, the two most unbearable things to look directly at in this world, besides the human heart, are the scorching sun.
Some people, some regrets, or perhaps it has been destined by fate that their lives can only end in tragedy.
Alas, it is fate and time, there is nothing we can do about it.
No matter what thoughts were running through his mind, the chief steward, who was standing upright in the corridor waiting for orders, still did his job diligently.
Workers on holiday always find all kinds of happiness for themselves. Even though he hadn't left the palace for three days, Li Chengxiu still carried his son and played happily with his wife.
However, experienced oxen and horses should all know one fact: holidays are happy, but this happiness is very short-lived.
"No, I feel like I just had a day off yesterday, so why am I dragged back to the pile of memorials and working myself to death today?
This makes no sense at all!
"Brother, I think as the emperor, I should be entitled to another three days of vacation. What do you think?"
His Royal Highness Prince An was too lazy to pay attention to his lazy brother. He just skillfully picked up the pen to write in one hand and picked up the feather duster borrowed from his fourth brother's wife in the other.
Sure enough, the Roe Deer Emperor immediately shut up.
He cursed in his heart all the Li bosses who forced him to work like a slave.
I felt a little better, and after trying to persuade myself for about a quarter of an hour, I finally forced myself to stretch out my trembling claws and touch the source of all evil.
He gritted his teeth and pulled out a memorial, just as he opened it, a report came from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, tragic news has just arrived from the Prime Minister's residence. Ji Minzhi, the second son of the Ji family, was assassinated on New Year's Eve and was seriously injured. He died at the beginning of the morning at the hour of Yin.
The Prime Minister was heartbroken, and his wife fainted several times. In order to sympathize with his wife's grief over the loss of her son, the Prime Minister decided to bury the second son as quickly as possible.
So I sent someone to the palace to deliver a note saying I wanted to take three days off."
The news sent in by General Li Song, the palace guard, stunned the two Li brothers.
"Has the Queen delivered the message?"
"The eldest daughter of the Ji family came to the palace early in the morning to ask to see the Queen. I think the Queen should know about it."
"Oh, then you go down first. I'll call you if there's anything."
"Yes, I'll take my leave!"
After Li Song left in his armor, Li Chengxiu silently turned his head to look at his elder brother.
"Why are you looking at me?"
Li Yuanxiu raised his eyebrows in surprise. He felt something was wrong with the look from the fourth brother, so he quickly spoke a few words to defend himself.
"This prince had no connection with the second son of the Ji family. He was assassinated and died of his injuries. It definitely has nothing to do with this prince. Don't look at me!"
"If you don't look at me, how do you know I'm looking at you?"
"Because I'm just sick, not dead! Your Majesty, your eyes are staring at me until they burn holes in me. How do you think I knew that?"
"Humph, when you want to coax me into doing work, you talk about the relationship between the ruler and the subject, but when you don't want to coax me anymore, you just talk about me and me? Prince An, this doesn't seem to be the right way to be a subject!"
With a furrowed brow and a cold tone, every word conveyed the emperor's displeasure. If an ordinary prince were to be hated by an ordinary emperor, he would undoubtedly be trembling with fear. But in the case of the Li brothers, the situation immediately took a hilarious turn.
"Really? Then it's definitely my fault."
Prince An put his pen on the pen holder as if he was familiar with the place, and was about to stand up and leave.
"I will now return home to reflect on my past. If I cannot attain enlightenment in the future, I will never again come to the palace to trouble Your Majesty. Your Majesty, I will take my leave."
"Come on, bro, I was just kidding!"
Seeing that the most talkative eldest brother was also going to quit, Li Laosi was very flexible and put away his cold face, and once again forced out that humble and smiling face.
"I said the wrong thing, I really said the wrong thing! Big brother, please sit down and be quiet. If you don't help me with these chores, who will? Big brother, please be kind and stop talking nonsense, okay?"
Fortunately, Boss Li was just trying to scare Li Laosi, and in the end he accepted his fate and sat back down to continue working like a slave.
He gave advice while sighing while working.
"Your Majesty, a king must always maintain his dignity and dignity. He must not reveal his true colors at every turn!
When spring comes and flowers bloom, envoys from other countries will arrive in Beijing one after another. Then you can no longer be so willful and do things that are grounded and meaningless.
If the king loses his dignity, it means that Dayu has lost its dignity and national prestige. Remember this!"
"I know, I know. Isn't it just putting on airs and pretending? Don't worry, this is my strong point."
Xinda comforted his elder brother a few words and brought the topic back to the topic.
“I didn’t doubt you just now because I saw you, I just wanted to express my emotions to you.
Something happened in Old Man Ji’s house, something big happened!
"Brother, as the emperor, do you think I should leave the palace and go to the Prime Minister's residence to comfort him?"
“You wish!
Do you think I didn't know that you sneaked out of the palace with your wife and children to have some fun on the night of New Year's Eve?
Do you still want to go out of the palace to watch the fun?
Don't even think about it, unless I'm dead. If you want to howl in front of my coffin, go ahead.
You should stay out of the way of my ministers' affairs."
