Li Jinyu reacted for a long time before he understood, and opened his mouth in surprise: The prime minister is fooling me?
He wants government affairs because he wants Huo Caiyu to be familiar with the government and cultivate the basic ability of the future Ming Jun, not just to be a judge!
Huo Caiyu was silent.Li Jinyu stood up and walked left and right: No, I want to go and talk to the prime minister again.He was about to go out, when he suddenly remembered something, turned his head to look at Huo Caiyu, and said seriously, you and I are together.The emperor summoned him, and Ye returned to his hometown quickly.Entering the palace gate, Prime Minister Ye saw Huo Caiyu standing next to Li Jinyu at a glance, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he saluted and took a seat.Your Majesty Long Zhang Fengzi Li Jinyu couldn't stand the long list of flattering sycophants when Ye returned to his hometown last time, and quickly interrupted him: I came to the prime minister this time to discuss something.The one next to him can afford those beautiful words, where does he deserve it!
Ye Guixiang was interrupted and did not show a different color: What does Your Majesty command?
Aren't the twists you gave me too perfunctory?
Li Jinyu ordered the folded cover on the table, I want to be serious about the state affairs!
Ye Guixiang coughed slightly, looked at Li Jinyu vaguely, and said with a slight smile: Your Majesty has not asked about political affairs for a long time, and it may be difficult to deal with the government rashly, so you might as well start with the subtleties and learn slowly.If it was Li Jinyu himself, he naturally didn't dare to directly manage major affairs; But next to him is the future son of heaven with the talent of Mingjun.Li Jinyu insisted: I am the son of heaven, and it is easy to take care of the government, so the prime minister does not have to worry.Prime Minister Ye was silent for a moment, and even gave in very well: What kind of government affairs does Your Majesty want to handle?
Li Jinyu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Huo Caiyu for help.The eyes are facing each other.Nothing was seen.He and Huo Caiyu haven't had the heart to this extent.Prime Minister Ye noticed Li Jinyu's movements, and his eyes sank slightly.Li Jinyu retracted his gaze for help, coughed, and tried to recall the content of the original work, and suddenly his eyes lit up: It's about taxes!
He remembered that in the original book, Huo Caiyu later seized the throne, and the reforms he made included important content about taxation.Huo Caiyu stood behind Li Jinyu, listening to the conversation between Li Jinyu and Prime Minister Ye Cheng, originally without saying a word, at this time he raised his head slightly and looked at Ye Guixiang.Taxation is the most important source of income for the treasury, and even Ye Guixiang himself is from the household department, will he be willing to let go of this part of the power?
Contrary to Huo Caiyu's expectations, Ye Guixiang readily agreed: the minister asked the household department to present the fold to His Majesty.Huo Caiyu was a little stunned.Then he keenly noticed that Prime Minister Ye Cheng glanced at him slightly.There was a slight malice and disgust in his eyes, which was completely different from the curiosity and purity that His Majesty often saw.Huo Caiyu subconsciously looked at Li Jinyu, facing Li Jinyu's eyes for meritorious service, and there was a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.I don't know if it's a malicious comparison with the prime minister, Huo Caiyu inexplicably feels that such a majesty is very cute.Chapter 12 Squeak sent Prime Minister Ye away, and Li Jinyu invited Huo Caiyu to stay for dinner.Feeling that he hadn't brushed up enough hatred value today, Li Jinyu specially instructed the waiter: This time there will be more dishes.Be sure to reflect his extravagance as much as possible!
Let Huo Caiyu hate him!
The chamberlain cautiously asked: Can you follow the previous rules of Your Majesty?
Li Jinyu thought back to the terrifying picture of the dozens of flowing water feasts at the beginning, and shrunk for a moment: That's too much, let's take twice the amount I have now.Servant: The slave knows.Li Jinyu returned to his seat and met Huo Caiyu's somewhat complicated eyes.He was stunned for a moment, and then reacted: Are you hungry?
Don't worry, you can eat it for a while!
I'm rich!
The number of dishes that the rich majesty invited the future majesty to eat really succeeded in arousing Huo Caiyu's anger.Li Jinyu could feel Huo Caiyu's almost uncontrollable anger across the red jujube wood round table.The main reason why Huo Caiyu stood up angrily at the Dihua Festival was that the shortage of military salaries at the border passes led to a serious shortage of armaments and military rations, and he was naturally extremely sensitive to this aspect.Li Jinyu could think of what Huo Caiyu was thinking: it was nothing more than the smell of wine and meat in Zhumen, and there were frozen bones on the road.This played into his hands.It's not enough, Li Jinyu deliberately added another fire, no one in the palace eats better than me, I eat these things every day, and I'm almost tired of it.Crash!
Huo Caiyu's angry eyes swept towards Li Jinyu without scruples.At the same time, he was also stirred up by the Ziwei Emperor's aura that had been around him.Li Jinyu was oppressed by Emperor Ziwei's qi and his face instantly turned red, and he couldn't say anything more.In Huo Caiyu's eyes, His Majesty blushed when he glanced at it.Huo Caiyu's anger was slightly relieved.But his face was still gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said: Your Majesty, the grass people are unwell, so they will retire first.Li Jinyu was so shocked by Emperor Ziwei's anger just now that he just wanted to retract back into the bed immediately, and when he heard that Huo Caiyu was leaving, he quickly nodded in agreement, and he didn't care about any hatred.Woo, it's too uncomfortable to brush Huo Caiyu's hatred value!
Huo Caiyu left the table angrily, and received an invitation from Concubine Xian on the second day.Concubine?
Huo Caiyu glanced down, frowned, and wanted to refuse directly.He had no place to deal with His Majesty's favorite concubine.Huo Gongzi is not in a hurry.The palace maid who passed the message said with a smile, Concubine Xian was afraid that her son would not be suitable for entering the palace, so she set up a banquet for her son, and she could speak inside and outside the palace, even if Huo Gongzi had nothing to do, he should also consider it for his family.Huo Caiyu's eyes froze, and she tasted the threat in the palace maid's words, and her eyes were a little cold: Why should Niangniang not get along with me, a flat-headed person.The palace maid covered her mouth and laughed: Huo Gongzi is receiving the favor of His Majesty, and it is unknown whether he will be a marquis in the future, and Niangniang just wants to have a good fate.She took out a washed, slightly whitish handkerchief from her sleeve and shook it gently.Huo Caiyu's face changed slightly, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and finally gritted his teeth: I'll go now.Concubine Xian was grounded and couldn't go out, but it was still okay to invite others to Hexin Palace.Huo Caiyu entered the main hall of Hexin Palace, and saw Concubine Xian sitting at the jujube wood round table, and there were palace maids beside her who kept setting up meals.Looking at this scale, it is several times more luxurious than last night at Li Jinyu's place!
Huo Caiyu's eyes were full of anger again, and there was a slight doubt, his hands were clenched into fists in his sleeves, and he stood at the door and did not sit down: What is the matter with the grass people summoned by Niangniang, you might as well speak up.Concubine Xian's complexion was very good, she took a sip of tea slowly, and said with a smile: Why is Huo Gongzi so polite Although Huo Gongzi has no position, since he has entered the palace, he is a family.The palace is preparing a little family banquet, and I also want to point out the rules of the harem, so Huo Gongzi might as well sit down and have a long talk.Concubine Xian directly counted Huo Caiyu as Li Jinyu's male pet outside of her words, and her contempt was overflowing.Huo Caiyu gritted his teeth: How dare the grass people call Concubine Xian a family.How could he be the male darling of that tyrant!
It can be seen that this concubine is not good, Huo Caiyu didn't have the patience to talk to her, raised the handkerchief in his hand, and asked in a deep voice: Where did this thing come from?
Concubine Xian took a sip of Yunxian tea lightly, and then said with a smile: It's just that it fell when Miss Huo entered the palace last time, and this time it can be regarded as the return of the goods to the original owner.Huo Caiyu's eyes froze: Has my sister entered the palace?
His Majesty planned to give the Huo family a favor in advance, summoned Miss Huo into the palace, and planned to seal the position.Concubine Xian paused slightly, and successfully saw the anger on Huo Caiyu's face, before she continued with a smile, but she didn't know why she gave up later.She deliberately glanced at Huo Caiyu, covered her mouth and said with a smile, Xu is His Majesty has a deep affection for Huo Gongzi.Of course, this was simply to disgust him.Huo Caiyu took a slight breath, clenched the handkerchief in his hand, and just wanted to say something more, when he suddenly heard a loud shout from outside: Your Majesty has arrived!
When Li Jinyu arrived at Hexin Palace, he bumped into Huo Caiyu with an angry look on his face.Feeling the overwhelming pressure of Emperor Ziwei's qi, Li Jinyu's body trembled, and his face flushed: What's the matter?
When Concubine Xian saw His Majesty's blushing appearance for the first time, she suddenly felt a little jealous in her heart, so she said a little aggrievedly: Your Majesty, the concubine just kindly invited Huo Gongzi to dinner, but I didn't expect him to be rude to the concubine!
Li Jinyu subconsciously looked at Huo Caiyu, and saw a trace of indifference and mockery on Huo Caiyu's face.Needless to say, it's clear who's doing the trick.If it were someone else, Li Jinyu might have to cooperate with Huo Caiyu's hatred, but Concubine Xian, a little troublemaker, Li Jinyu, didn't dare to team up with her.So he tried to keep his face straight: I forbade your feet to let you calm down, why do you still have so many things?
Concubine Xian's eyes widened in disbelief: Your Majesty!
Li Jinyu ignored her, turned his head to look at Huo Caiyu, under the pressure of the strong Ziwei Emperor's qi, his face turned redder, and his voice was much quieter: You can go back too.Huo Caiyu: He had something to say, but he couldn't say anything to His Majesty with slightly red cheeks.Leaving Hexin Palace, Li Jinyu found an excuse to slip away from the imposing Huo Caiyu, Huo Caiyu finally asked: Your Majesty, I heard Concubine Xian Niangniang say that Your Majesty once chose to summon her sister into the palace?
Li Jinyu was stunned, and then remembered what Concubine Xian had made up her own mind at that time.He rolled his eyes and flatly admitted: Yes, I did it.When Huo Caiyu asked again, he said that he coveted Miss Huo's beauty, but when he met, he found that it was not so beautiful, so he put the person back.A perfect mediocre and lascivious image!
Huo Caiyu nodded, his face was expressionless, and he bowed his head and saluted: The grass people know.After saying that, he turned around and left.Only Li Jinyu, who had prepared the wording, was left stunned.Why is it so easy to brush up on this hate today?
On the way back to Jiaolan Palace, Huo Caiyu had been expressionless, and the attendant next to him was quite frightened.He was assigned by His Majesty to serve Huo Caiyu for a while.I have to say that Huo Gongzi has a bad temper, and he will not look down on his subordinates, and he is extremely easy to do things next to this Huo Gongzi.Therefore, the chamberlain also had some thin feelings for Huo Caiyu, and couldn't help but persuade: Why should the prince be angry with His Majesty.Huo Caiyu glanced at him and didn't speak.The chamberlain knew that Huo Caiyu was not in a bad temper, so he continued to persuade: Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, naturally it depends on your temperament, you can take a step back, if you really anger Your Majesty, how can there be any good fruit to eat.Huo Caiyu tilted his head slightly: Do you know what I'm angry about?
It's not just about fighting for that little thing in the palace.The waiter looked left and right at no one, and sighed in a low voice, even if Concubine Xian Niangniang leaned against the prime minister, there were times when she was unsatisfactory.Huo Caiyu was slightly stunned: Concubine Xian Niangniang has a relationship with Prime Minister Ye Cheng?
Concubine Xian Niangniang is Ye Xiangye's niece.The chamberlain whispered, otherwise how dare he be so public?
Huo Caiyu remembered Concubine Xian's feast, which was several times richer than Li Jinyu's, and remembered Ye Cheng's attitude.The chamberlain thought that Huo Caiyu was still struggling with his sister's entry into the palace: His Majesty didn't really enter the palace, so Huo Gongzi might as well turn a blind eye.Do you also think that His Majesty ordered my sister to be included in the harem?
The chamberlain was stunned: Isn't it?
Huo Caiyu didn't answer, his eyes were as heavy as thick clouds in the sky.He had already woken up when His Majesty came to visit the Splendid Pavilion, and he was just pretending to be unconscious.Later, when His Majesty talked to other palace people, he used his internal strength to eavesdrop, and clearly heard the words of Concubine Xian's instructions.Fang Cai's gaffe in Concubine Xian's palace is generally suspected that Concubine Xian controls her family, and the other half is just pretending to be brainless.It's just that he still doesn't understand, why does His Majesty want to admit that it is him?
Could it be that the power of the prime minister and the concubine has reached such a point that the emperor is forced to pinch his nose and admit it?
Huo Caiyu thought of Li Jinyu, who should have been in power for two years according to the rules, but was still illiterate, and pursed his lips slightly.When he was outside the palace, the government and the opposition complained and almost only went to Emperor Jingchang alone; Now that he has entered the palace and spent some time with Li Jinyu, he found that this tyrant is very different from the rumors.Compared with the rumored tyrannical and extravagant emperor, he is more like an ignorant child who has not been taught normally.And this child is now covering himself up with the dragon robe that is splashed with dirty water, vigilantly protecting himself.Huo Caiyu noticed more than once that when Li Jinyu talked to others, he would hide his hands behind him; The fingertips that were inadvertently exposed were also trembling slightly, as if they were afraid to communicate with people.Either the tyrant's disguise can be so expressive that he can't get a glimpse of his true character in all the details; Either Huo Caiyu closed his eyes slightly and took a light breath.It needs to be carefully watched.If His Majesty were still the tyrant, he would have found a way to escape from the palace; But if Your Majesty is really just a target forcibly erected by the Prime Minister, then what can you do for Your Majesty and Odi?
Chapter 13 Squeak Squeak The next day, Prime Minister Ye Cheng sent a bunch of twists and turns again, and Li Jinyu took them to find Huo Caiyu excitedly.This time it's a tax break.Huo Caiyu opened it and looked at a few, his face was sometimes heavy and sometimes confused.Li Jinyu sat aside, quietly nibbling peanuts, and obediently played the background board.He has 100% trust in Huo Caiyu, the male protagonist, and believes that no problem will be difficult for him.After gnawing half a plate of peanuts, Li Jinyu wiped his mouth, looked at Huo Caiyu, who had been immersed in the folds, and asked with some curiosity: What's wrong?
Huo Caiyu woke up, raised his head to meet Li Jinyu's pure eyes, and slightly loosened his fingers: Your Majesty forgives your sins, and the grass people were so distracted for a while that they forgot to explain the practice of Chinese characters to Your Majesty.Li Jinyu: No, you should continue to be distracted.Huo Caiyu suddenly showed a strong sense of responsibility, really took a pen and paper, and taught Li Jinyu to read and write.Li Jinyu's own excuse is not easy to shirk, so he can only stubbornly push it up.In this era, writing was still written with brushes and inkstones, and the pen and ink in the palace were more delicate and easier to hold.But no matter how convenient the pen and ink is, it is difficult for Li Jinyu, who has never touched the pen.Huo Caiyu corrected his posture of holding the pen several times, and frowned tightly: Your Majesty has never learned calligraphy before?
It's like a child who has just come into contact with pen and ink.Li Jinyu was a little weak-hearted, no matter how dim he was, judging from the few handbooks and notes in the dormitory, the words were still written beautifully.
