Dividing the two piles of memorials between the eldest prince and the prince of Jin'an County, the emperor then looked at the memorials on his desk.
The waiters in the house came and went with tea carefully.
As the New Year approaches, the emperor's brows become more and more frowning.
The country is rich, the army is strong, the body is strong, and a series of happy events dilute the worries caused by the solar eclipse.
Unexpectedly, the hidden worries cannot be avoided.
The celestial phenomena again warned that a great disaster was coming suddenly.
Looking at this memorial, the number of victims and the area affected were beyond his imagination. What was even more terrible was the damn civil unrest.
"Currently, Maoping Fourth Road has opened warehouses to store grain, but it can be maintained for a winter, but it has to be maintained for a spring, and it will be difficult to wait for the summer harvest."
A low voice sounded in my ears.
The emperor nodded.
"Yes, the key is that there is still civil unrest at this time." He said, raising his head and looking at the King of Jin'an who had sat over at some point.
Prince Jin'an looked at him.
"Your Majesty has lost weight," he said.
The emperor was stunned for a moment and then smiled.
"Have you finished reading?" he asked, looking down. The eldest prince was still reading the memorials under the service of the chamberlain. He had only read a few books, and there were many in front of him. Sensing the emperor's gaze, he couldn't help but speed up his movements.
.
"I've finished reading." Prince Jin'an said, "I am older after all."
The emperor smiled and extended his hand to signal, and the chamberlain on the side hurriedly brought the memorial from Prince Jin'an.
The emperor slowly looked through them one by one, nodding with a hint of approval on his face.
"The words are concise and clear," he said, "which shows that he is very clear in his heart."
"These things are actually very simple." Prince Jin'an said.
"Very simple?" the emperor asked with a smile and raised eyebrows.
"It's easy to understand, but very difficult to do." Prince Jin'an said, sighing, "It's really not easy for Your Majesty."
The emperor smiled and handed him the memorial in front of him.
"Look at this, what do you think?" he asked.
The prince of Jin'an County took it over.
There was a commotion over there, and both of them looked over and saw that the eldest prince was standing up. Several cases had been moved in a hurry and several memorials had fallen down.
The two waiters hurriedly knelt down to pick it up and hug it.
"Father, I've finished reading the children's book." The eldest prince came over and said.
The emperor hummed and motioned to the chamberlain to put down the memorial while continuing to talk to Prince Jin'an.
"Which is more important, civil unrest or disaster relief?" he asked.
"Of course it is to quell the chaos." The eldest prince rushed to say, "There is civil unrest disrupting the disaster relief. We must first crack down on the civil unrest and demonstrations, and then provide disaster relief to show the court's mercy."
The emperor glanced at him and smiled without saying anything, but looked at Prince Jin'an.
"It is necessary to provide disaster relief." The Prince of Jin'an County said, "The civil unrest is caused by the disaster. Investigate its root cause and eliminate its root cause. Otherwise, thieves from all directions will inevitably arise. At that time, disaster relief will cost more."
The emperor smiled again.
The eldest prince glanced nervously at the two of them.
"Father." He couldn't help shouting.
The emperor raised his hand to stop him.
"Although you have a lot of homework and have only just taken over the government affairs, you still have to come to the court meeting if you can." He said to Prince Jin'an.
"Your Majesty, this child is just a member of the clan." Prince Jin'an said with a smile.
"The clan also has to attend the imperial meeting," the emperor said.
The prince of Jin'an County bowed and saluted and said yes.
"Go ahead, you have a lot to do." The emperor said.
The prince of Jin'an County responded and bowed out.
After watching Prince Jin'an exit, the emperor turned to the eldest prince.
Being swept away by the emperor's gaze, the eldest prince couldn't help but feel his back tightening, and clenched his hands on his knees.
"When you are reviewing the memorial, don't drop your book bag." The emperor said, taking the memorial that the eldest prince had just read, "You must know that these ministers all passed the Thousand People High School Entrance Examination after ten years of hard study, and they are all first-class in knowledge.
That's great, how can you argue with them about collecting allusions in their essays?"
The eldest prince lowered his head and responded, hearing the emperor's voice continuing in his ears.
"... Empty words, nothing to say... These ministers are all cunning. Once you show your cowardice in front of them, they will take advantage of you..."
“….They need to be talented in literature and familiar with government affairs. You can’t play with them with ten words, so you have to use your strengths and avoid your weaknesses. Say what you have to say, use the simplest words to express complex things, and know yourself.
What you are asking, what you want to know, and how you want to do it, simply and clearly convey it."
"Look at what Prince Jin'an wrote..."
The eldest prince felt that his ears were buzzing and he took it blankly, but his vision seemed to be clear and unclear. His mind was so panicked that he could not even answer the emperor's question again.
"You will be fourteen during the Chinese New Year! You have already opened a mansion! There are so many gentlemen teaching you one by one, and you are in the court every day. Why don't you make any progress?"
The emperor could no longer suppress the irritability in his heart and slammed the memorial in his hand onto the tables.
The eldest prince was startled and trembled, bowing his head.
After hearing the news, the imperial concubine walked around anxiously in the palace, and finally waited until someone hurried in outside the door.
"How's it going? How's Prince Ping?" she asked anxiously.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness has returned to the palace," the chamberlain said.
"Why don't you call him?" the imperial concubine shouted with raised eyebrows.
"I called, but His Highness didn't come. I'm in a hurry to go back." The chamberlain lowered his head and said, subconsciously stroking his arm.
When he was in a hurry to stop him, Prince Ping took the horse whip and gave him a hard whip.
"It can be seen that he has been wronged." The imperial concubine was even more worried, "Please let someone go and take a look at him, please?"
Another waiter rushed away in response.
"The same goes for Your Majesty. He is still young. If he doesn't understand, just teach him well. What are you doing by scolding him like this?" The imperial concubine gritted her teeth and said, "Prince Ping has always been smart. There is nothing he can't just teach him."
"Your Majesty is in a bad mood and there are many things going on at court." The chamberlain advised him in a low voice.
"The reason why you are in a bad mood is because those ministers did not do their job well. What happened to Prince Guan Ping?" the imperial concubine said, pacing back and forth, "I heard that it is because of Prince Jin'an?"
"That's not true. Prince Jin'an also read the memorial. After all, he is older. His Majesty gave a few words of praise and left." The chamberlain said.
"I know that as long as he is in front of Your Majesty, Prince Ping will always be despised by someone who is as cunning as a ghost." The imperial concubine said with a snort, then stopped, "Your Majesty, you still want him to go to court?"
The waiter bowed his head and answered yes.
"Your Majesty, you don't need to worry about it. You can only praise others and be willing to take responsibility for yourself." He said with a smile, "Your Majesty is strict with Prince Ping because he has high hopes. Your Majesty should be happy..."
Before he finished speaking, the imperial concubine spat in her face.
"I'm so happy!" She raised her eyebrows and yelled, "Don't you have high hopes at other times? Why did you get reprimanded today? Wasn't someone deliberately provoking your anger?"
The waiter didn't dare to say any more and bowed his head in response.
"Do you think I don't understand the political affairs of the government? As the saying goes, it is said that the right thing is not the right person, and people and things are naturally one and the same. How can they be separated? The right thing but not the right person is all lies!"
"People's hearts have expectations, and people's selfish desires are compared. If it weren't for the good behavior of Prince Jin'an, how could His Majesty get so impatient and angry so easily?"
Concubine, stand still.
"I have repeatedly said that I cannot keep him under the emperor's presence, but I refuse to listen."
If you don't listen, you obviously have no choice but to get rid of it.
The chamberlain lowered his head and discussed.
"In the past, it was just a matter of pretending to be crazy and acting stupid to get some favors. Look at now, he has a bigger heart. He is good at reading, and he also pretends to start planning for the future..."
"Your Majesty, even if he continues to do this, he is still just a member of the clan. What else can he do besides getting some rewards?" A chamberlain couldn't help but said.
The imperial concubine was silent for a moment.
"He can make His Majesty hate Prince Ping." She said slowly.
Maybe, no, not maybe, this is probably his purpose. With King Qing here, there will be no shortage of rewards, gifts and care. What is the purpose of him jumping up and down like this and sparing no effort?
Maybe, it’s King Tuping’s fate…
The imperial concubine couldn't help but shudder.
She recalled that when the sixth prince had an accident that year, the cold light flashed in the eyes of the King of Jin'an County who came over after hearing the imperial doctor's verdict.
His gaze fell on the eldest prince, just like a poisonous snake seeing its prey, hiding in the darkness and hissing its fangs, waiting for a single blow to kill him.
Everyone didn't understand why they were so afraid of the prince who hated this embroidered pillow, because they didn't know, they didn't know how the sixth prince...
.But Prince Jin'an must know something...
He must know!
It was his flash of cold vision at that time that had haunted him for so many years, making him unable to eat well and sleepless at night.
He absolutely cannot stay!
She couldn't risk waiting for King Ping to take the throne before sending this guy away!
"Go and tell the Prime Minister that he must not leave the capital alone and take the Prince of Jin'an away."
The waiter bowed his head in response and slowly backed out.
At this time, the chamberlain sent by the imperial concubine had just entered Prince Ping's palace, but was stopped after Tong Bing.
"His Highness said that because he has been punished, he must work harder, so please rest assured," the chief steward of Prince Ping's Mansion said.
"Then it would be nice to see His Highness and talk to the Queen," the chamberlain said.
The look in the eyes of the big manager in front of him made him feel a little uncomfortable.
It seems to be a bit arrogant.
Why are you so arrogant? It used to be that he was a dog following him in the palace, but now he looks like a human being when he comes out of the palace!
He even refused to let himself see Prince Ping!
What are you going to do? Are you taking control of the prince's palace now? Are you afraid that others will lose your trust in Prince Ping?
Who thinks highly of you?
However, although I don't think much of him now, when Prince Ping ascends the throne in the future, all the palace's personal servants will be his confidants.
Not everyone can compare to the old man in Qiandi.
"Master Liu, His Highness has asked you to go." A young chamberlain shouted hurriedly inside.
"It just so happens that I'll go with you..." the imperial concubine's chamberlain said hurriedly, and was about to leave but was stopped by Manager Liu.
"His Highness has already said goodbye. His Highness is in a bad mood now. If you insist on irritating him, when the time comes and you get beaten, will you complain to the queen, or will you swallow it yourself?" Manager Liu frowned indifferently.
said.
To complain to the empress is to sow discord between mother and son.
Swallowing it by yourself is like eating Coptis chinensis for a dumb person.
The chamberlain was stunned for a moment, but how could His Highness hit someone?
His Royal Highness Prince Ping is the most observant of etiquette. Although he is a bit pedantic, he is still kind.
Manager Liu smiled slightly.
"Human, all you see are skins." He whispered, patting the chamberlain on the shoulder, "I won't reminisce with you today. His Highness is looking for you in a hurry, and I don't dare to wait any longer."
He said that and walked away quickly.
The waiter yelled and chased after him for a few steps, but was stopped and finally gave up.
"Sir, please." The followers of Prince Ping's Mansion said politely.
The chamberlain had no choice but to shake his head and step outside before walking out of the courtyard. He saw two people on the other side carrying a broken mat and hurried back.
What is that?
He couldn't help but squint his eyes and saw a lock of long black hair slipping out of the tattered mat as he moved.
The chamberlain shuddered suddenly, his eyes widened in disbelief, and the words of Manager Liu just now flashed in his ears.
His Highness is in a bad mood now. If you insist on irritating him, he will be beaten when the time comes...
No way?
The chamberlain couldn't help but want to step forward.
"Sir." The attendants on both sides stood up to stop him and said with a hint of warning, "Please."
The chamberlain looked at these eager followers and swallowed.
This is Prince Ping's Mansion, Prince Ping's own world.
The waiter lowered his eyes and hurried out.
"Please don't worry, Your Majesty, Your Highness will be fine."
At the door, Manager Liu who was following him said with a smile.
Seeing his smile, the waiter felt cold in his heart again.
All people see is skin, who knows what kind of heart is hidden under the skin.
Your Highness, Prince Ping, has grown up...
The waiter responded, quickly got on his horse and galloped away.
