Chapter Three, Zhao Jing

At night, the lights in Prince Qi's palace were brightly lit. In the dining hall of the palace, Chen Hongyu sat quietly in his seat, turning his head and looking around from time to time.

Originally, my cheap grandfather planned to have a meal at his own mansion, but in the end he suddenly changed his mind for some unknown reason and called both sons to hold a family banquet at the palace.

In the four years since he came to this world, this cheap grandfather has held family dinners only a handful of times. Every family dinner must have important announcements. I don’t know what the purpose of holding this family dinner is.

Something important to announce.

At this time, looking towards the banquet seats, you can see Qi Wang Zhao Jing and Qi Princess Pei sitting on the upper hand. The person on the left with a handsome face and extraordinary bearing is his cheap uncle, that is,

Zhao Xian, the eldest son of Zhao Jing.

Zhao Jing attaches great importance to rules in doing things. It is meal time at this time, and he adheres to the rule of "eating without talking or sleeping without talking". He will only start formal discussions after the banquet is over.

Soon, everyone was full. After the servants in the house had removed the dishes, Zhao Jing waved her hand and said warmly, "Yuan'er, sit next to grandfather."

Hearing this, Chen Hongyu quickly got off the table and chair and slipped into Zhao Jing's arms. He had no choice but to bow his head under the eaves. Even if he was once the head of the Taisui Department, so what, now it was the cheap grandfather in front of him who could decide their family.

Holding Chen Hongyu in her arms, Zhao Jing peeled off the nuts of the owner of the fruit plate in front of her and whispered, "Zhao Xian, there have been many rumors in Fucheng recently, saying that you have allowed your subordinates to roam around in brothels, and even

Some people molest good girls in broad daylight, and the dignity of the government is gone.

I don’t know, do you know the details?”

Hearing this, Zhao Xian's face changed slightly, and his father's mood and anger were not audible. Although his tone was calm now, he was even in the mood to peel nuts and tease his little nephew. He seemed to be in a good mood, but in fact, he was definitely in his heart.

Anger rages to the sky.

"Father, it's not my indulgence. It's because these people have a special status. These people are all children of the ministers of the court. Even I can't control them easily."

"Coward!" Zhao Jing raised her hand and hit Zhao Xian directly in the face with a handful of nuts, but he did not dare to have the slightest idea of ​​dodging.

"So what if these people are not from a low background? How can I not know what those ministers are thinking? It's just a casual bet. Moreover, their parents are not unreasonable people, and they came to me with the intention of letting me discipline them.

mean.

In the future, if someone acts out of compliance with the rules and is directly punished according to the rules of my palace, if any bastard is unhappy, please ask him to come to me."

After saying this, Zhao Jing couldn't help but get angry, "I originally left this matter to you to train your abilities, but I didn't expect you to be so weak. You don't have the toughness of me, Prince Zhao."

"Your Majesty!" Mrs. Pei quietly pulled Zhao Jing's sleeve to indicate that he should stop scolding him. Zhao Jing turned around and glanced back. Mrs. Pei immediately sat upright and took back the hand holding his sleeve.

Chen Hongyu, who was sitting in Zhao Jing's arms, saw all this clearly and secretly lamented the power of his grandfather in the family.

But this is because Mrs. Pei knew that Zhao Jing was reprimanding Zhao Xian at this time for Zhao Xian's good. Otherwise, with the Pei family behind her, she would really dare to fight with Zhao Jing.

While Chen Hongyu was thinking in his mind, he heard Zhao Jing speak again, "A man cannot lose his power for a day. Now that Yuan'er is four years old, it's time for you, Zhao Zhan, to go out and do something."

Because of the flood in Yongle County today, the original county magistrate has been removed from his official position. It just so happens that you are in charge of Yongle County.

As for the team, if you are confident that you can conquer the team in the county government yourself, if you want to use your own people, you can select a few people from the mansion and take them to Yongle."

"Thank you, father!" Zhao Zhan looked overjoyed. Although he didn't know why, he finally began to truly come into contact with power.

Beside Zhao Jing, Mrs. Pei's face changed when she heard what Zhao Jing said, and became a little distorted in an instant. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Zhao Jing's indifferent expression. She couldn't help but tremble in her heart, and decided to tell him privately afterwards.

But after all, the anger never goes away. At that moment, a palace guard next to him came forward with a stove. Suddenly his feet swayed and he almost fell to the ground.

Although the guard still stabilized his figure, many pieces of charcoal fire inside still spilled out, making the ground messy.

Seeing this scene, the guard suddenly panicked and begged for mercy again and again. But Mrs. Pei was so angry at this time, how could he easily expose the matter? He snorted coldly, "Take it back!"

When the guard heard this, he couldn't help but hesitated. It was late autumn at this time, and the weather was cold, so he used the stove to keep warm. The charcoal fire scattered on the ground at this time was very hot. If he picked it up with his hands, he was afraid that he would

Both hands will be wasted.

But at this time, Mr. Pei's face was angry, and the others were silent. The guard just weighed it in his mind before picking it up with his hands.

At this time, Chen Hongyu was a little surprised when he saw the clothes on the guard.

Judging from the clothes on this guard, he should not be the lowest-level servant in the palace, but also a small boss. How could he come to deliver the stove in person and accidentally spill the charcoal?

Moreover, another look at the expression of the palace manager next to him made him thoughtful, and he changed his original mind that it was nothing to do with him.

With his mind spinning, Chen Hongyu said, "Grandpa, no one can make mistakes without being a sage, let alone a slave. Why don't we just let him go this time."

As he said that, he raised his face and gently tugged Zhao Jing's beard. However, Zhao Jing was not moved at all. Instead, he lowered his head and said, "Yuan'er, my grandfather will teach you a lesson today.

This person must be punished if he makes a mistake, and he cannot be dismissed lightly just because he looks pitiful or otherwise."

At this time, the guard had begun to pick up charcoal fire with his bare hands. As each charcoal fire was picked up, the burns on the guard's hands became more and more serious.

After a while, the fire burned brightly, warming the dining hall, and the guard was taken down to apply medicine. However, the atmosphere among everyone became somewhat silent because of Pei's attack.

However, Chen Hongyu was not afraid at all. Anyway, he was still a young child at this time, and he was also loved by his grandfather, so his hand had already touched the jade pendant around Zhao Jing's waist.

On this jade pendant, he could feel the thick dragon energy, which seemed to possess the power of forbidding all laws.

Even though he had released a small part of the cultivation hidden deep in his soul, he still couldn't resist at all when facing this jade pendant, and he couldn't mobilize even a trace of the power in his soul.
