"I understand." Mo'er took the angry lantern. After walking a few steps, he turned around and saw Si Xi still standing there and said, "Father-in-law, please go back. I will be careful."
Si Xi didn't say anything, just waved Mo'er to leave. After she disappeared and couldn't even see the light of the lamp, she turned back to the house. When she took off her clothes and shoes and lay down on the bed, Si Xi could not help but raise his hand to touch the painted eyebrows, and fell asleep with a smile that even he himself was not aware of.
He slept very deeply. When he woke up, the sky was already slightly bright. Sixi was shocked. Oh no, why did he oversleep? It would be bad to miss the time to wait for the emperor to get up. Thinking of this, he hurriedly He changed his clothes and didn't even have time to wash his face. He hurried to the Yangxin Hall. When he got there, he found that Su Peisheng was already serving Yinzhen to dress. After all, it was too late. He quickly knelt down and apologized, "I'm late, please forgive me." "
While Su Peisheng was letting Su Peisheng hang a string of beads around his neck, Yinzhen glanced at Sixi and said, "Get up. It won't be the same next time."
"Yes." Sixi sighed secretly, crawled over and straightened the court clothes for Yinzhen, and then followed Yinzhen to Qianqing Palace.
A young eunuch who was new to the Yangxin Hall saw Su Peisheng standing there, and came over to please him: "Eunuch Su, aren't you going over?"
Before he finished speaking, he received a heavy slap on the face. He was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses. He looked at the indifferent Su Peisheng inexplicably and said aggrievedly: "Eunuch Su, what did this slave do wrong?"
Su Peisheng pinched his chin hard and said word by word: "You didn't do anything wrong, but you said something wrong. Remember, before you speak next time, think about it first. Don't use such a big head just for decoration."
After he left angrily, the young eunuch grabbed one of the older eunuchs and said, "Eunuch, what did I say wrong that made Eunuch Su so angry?"
The older eunuch shook his head and said with sympathy: "You, you have violated Eunuch Su's big taboo and you don't know yet." He pulled the young eunuch to a corner and whispered: "Eunuch Su is the same as Eunuch Xi. In the past, Eunuch Li taught those who served the emperor, but the only one who could accompany the emperor to Qianqing Palace was Eunuch Xi, who was the general manager of the palace. Eunuch Su was not qualified to go. What you said just now is not true. Are you deliberately trying to make Eunuch Su feel troubled?"
After listening to what he said, the little eunuch finally understood. At the same time, he felt scared. It was true that trouble came from his mouth. He had already offended Eunuch Su just a few days after arriving. It seemed that he would not be able to do anything good in the future. The days have passed.
Let's say that Sixi followed Yinzhen all the way to the Qianqing Palace. The ministers waiting in the Qianqing Palace saw Yinzhen coming in bright yellow court clothes, and they quickly knelt down to say hello and shouted long live.
Yinzhen climbed up the steps, turned around and stood under the bright plaque, looking coldly at the kneeling ministers. Every minister who felt his gaze lowered their heads in unison.
They didn't understand why Yinzhen, who was seriously injured and lying in bed dying the day before, went to court today as if nothing was wrong.
However, ignorance is secondary, and fear is primary. When many of them thought that Yinzhen was dead, they approached Ba Age, who came to lobby. If they were to be investigated, the consequences would be disastrous.
Therefore, the more Yinzhen said nothing, the more frightened they became. The man in front of them was not a generous and benevolent emperor like the late emperor. He was so unbearable that he even began to sweat on his forehead, his arms were trembling, and it was difficult to support the weight of his upper body.
Although Yunzhen and the others who were kneeling at the front looked normal, they were also beating drums in their hearts, not knowing what Yinzhen would do next.
"There was an accident at the Lantern Festival a few days ago. I suffered some minor injuries without checking, so I have been recuperating in the palace for the past few days. Prince Lian is in charge of the government." When he said this, he looked at him with a pleasant look.
Xiang Yunzhen, "Old man, you have worked hard these days."
Yunsu said with a look of fear on his face: "It is the duty of ministers to share the emperor's worries. How dare you mention the word "hard work"? Your Majesty's words like this are really killing the ministers."
Yinzhen's eyes flashed and he said with a smile: "Old Eight, you are dedicated to serving the imperial court and are loyal. You are truly a rare pillar of the country, so I decided to reward your parents with a royal salary."
Yunsu didn't understand what Yinzhen had in mind, but he showed excitement on his face and kowtowed: "Your Majesty treats you so kindly. I can't repay you for your kindness even if I am so heartbroken."
"You and I are both kings and ministers and brothers, so there is no need to say such unreasonable words." Yinzhen smiled and said meaningfully: "You were tired a few days ago, but now that I am fine, you can take this opportunity to rest and take good care of yourself.
body."
Yunsu was shaken, and he instantly understood Yinzhen's plan. He was going to seize the power in his hands quietly, and then slowly deal with himself. He said immediately: "If you return to the emperor, this kind of thing has already happened to me."
Once you're used to it, you don't feel it's hard, and you don't need anything to support. Besides, I still have a lot of things to do, so it's not good to stop them all at once."
Yinzhen waved his hand and said with concern: "I know that you are dedicated to serving the country and the people, but you also need to take care of yourself. There are still many places where I will rely on you in the future. As for the things you are doing, I don't care.
But leave it to Seventeenth Brother. Seventeenth Brother has grown up. I think he is quite smart and keen, and he is willing to learn hard. He will not let you down."
"Yes, I obey the decree." After Yinzhen had reached this point, Yunzhen had nothing else to say. He was the emperor after all, and the imperial decree was like a mountain, and he could not allow others to reject it.
The so-called royal salary of his parents was just something Yinzhen used to fool himself. Compared with the actual power handed over, this was nothing worth mentioning.
"Is your Majesty rewarding my starling or punishing myna?" When the whole palace was silent, a rough voice sounded in the palace, besides Tenth Prince Yun? Who else was there?
"Old Shi, what do you mean by this?" Yinzhen seemed to have forgotten that a large number of people were still kneeling there, and had no intention of ordering them to get up. He didn't mention it, and everyone could only endure their numb legs.
Continue to kneel.
"What does it mean? The emperor knows it in his heart, so why do you need me to say it again?" Yun? sneered and continued: "If the emperor wants to remove Bage's power, he can say it clearly, there is no need to beat around the bush."
Seeing that he had gone too far, Yunhu shouted: "Old Shi, don't be rude to the emperor."
Yun? Pretended to be indifferent and still stared at Yinzhen and said: "Is it enough for the emperor to offload Bage alone? If it is not enough, he will also relinquish the power in the hands of the general and Ninth Brother."
Yinzhen said with a look of astonishment: "Lao Shi, what are you talking about? When did I ever think of relinquishing power from Lao Ba? I was just afraid that he would collapse from overwork, so I just asked him to rest for a while first, so that he could recover."
Well, I will naturally return these things to him."
