Chen Ju glanced at Chen Zhong coldly.

"Your Majesty is sick with the dragon, you want to recuperate in peace, do you know it?"

Chen Zhong and the others still knelt on the ground, gritted their teeth and said: "Grand Duke, we naturally know that Your Majesty's dragon body is sick, but now that the Great Jin Kingdom is sick, Your Majesty can't help but ask!" ”

"What a loyal Chen Shilang."

The big eunuch's face was indifferent: "Did the remnant Yuan fight back, or did Nanshu go north?" ”

Chen Zhong gritted his teeth and bowed his head to Chen Ju and said: "Grand Duke, the big-character posters spread everywhere in the capital, the Grand Duke should have read it, the content written on it is true, and the ministers of the court and the central government are vying to write the book, also to persuade the prince to return to the right path, if His Royal Highness the prince can sincerely repent, the matter of writing an edict of guilt will be over, but the prince not only does not want to repent, but instead of repenting, he wantonly persecuts the courtiers, and to this day, thirty or forty people have been imprisoned for this matter!" ”

"Since I became Emperor Wu of the Great Jin Dynasty, there has been no one who has been convicted for his words, and now the prince has no virtue, and he controls the government, and I have no way to impeach, so I can only kneel here and beg Your Majesty!"

Chen Ju looked coldly at the row of officials kneeling on the ground, and finally exhaled slowly.

"That's it, you give all the recitals to our family, and our family will forward them to Your Majesty."

Among these officials kneeling at the gate of Changle Palace, there are several third-grade ones, most of them are fourth-grade, and there are more than a dozen people together, this is a huge court force, even Chen Ju is not easy to ignore.

Most of the people in the world bluntly think that in ancient times, the first and second grades were the top, but in fact, the first and second grades, especially the first-grade officials, are mostly fictitious, and the number of second-grade officials is too small and too little, and the real backbone of the court is these third- and fourth-grade officials.

Take this Chen Zhong, the left attendant of the military department, for example, with his current position, there will be nothing inappropriate to become the prime minister in one step.

In the history of the Great Jin Dynasty, there are many people who enter the province as a third-grade official and become prime ministers.

Chen Zhong and the others hurriedly stood up, handed the book in their hands to Chen Ju, bowed their heads to Chen Ju and said, "There is a father-in-law Lao." ”

After a while, more than a dozen books were put away by Chen Ju, and the great eunuch looked at the books in his hand and sighed leisurely: "Your Majesty has become seriously ill like this, and you still refuse to let him go." ”

Chen Zhong and the others said in fear: "Grand Duke, the lower officials and others have no such meaning. ”

The great eunuch shook his head, turned around and walked towards the palace gate of Changle Palace.

"Go back, go back, if you want to make trouble again, no one will tolerate you."

Chen Zhong and the others hurriedly got up and turned around to leave the palace.

These people are all sworn friends of the Qi Palace, and they are not very afraid of the prince, but they are still in awe of the Chengde Prince.

Just after they left, Chen Ju also entered the dormitory of Changle Palace.

At this time, the son of Chengde Tianzi looked quite energetic, just sitting quietly on the dragon couch and distracted, not knowing what he was thinking.

Chen Ju walked in with the book in his arms.

The Son of Heaven glanced up at Chen Ju and said, "Those people who are crying wolves, gone?" ”

"Gone."

Chen Ju lowered his head and said with a wry smile: "Those people are very difficult, Lai insisted on seeing His Majesty at the gate of the palace, and it was the old slave who collected all their recitals before they were willing to leave." ”

"It's burning."

The face of the Son of Heaven does not change color.

The chief eunuch answered, holding the dozen or so books, and threw them into the stove beside him one by one.

The Son of Heaven slowly closed his eyes, feeling that it was a little colder again, so he tightened his clothes and leaned closer to the stove.

………………………………

Time flies quickly, nearly half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and the time has come to the end of the eighteenth year of Chengde.

This day is the eighth day of the lunar month, that is, the day of drinking Laba porridge.

On this day, the courtyard of Li Xin's house was quite lively, not only His Royal Highness the King of Wei took his son to celebrate the festival here, but also the ninth princess in a snow-white jacket, wrapped on the apron that Li Lang would get out, and was busy working in Li Xin's house.

Although she is delicious, she has never cooked by herself, and on this day she suddenly had a whim and asked Li Xin to teach her to cook, which happened to be Laba Festival, so Li Xin took her to cook Laba porridge in the kitchen.

The process of cooking porridge is still not complicated, as long as the prepared ingredients are put in turn, and at noon, the princess of Qinghe finally cooked the first pot of works in her life under the guidance of Li Xin's hand.

After tasting it herself, she felt very satisfied, so she immediately filled a bowl, held it in her hand and blew a few breaths, found the prince of Wei who was playing in the main hall, squatted down, and his eyes were bent into crescents.

"Come, Xiao Yan'er, my aunt will feed you porridge."

The ninth princess is the sister of the king of Wei, and also the aunt of the two sons of the palace of Wei, when she has not left the palace, she loves these two little nephews very much, and often goes out of the palace to visit them in the palace of the king of Wei in three days.

His Royal Highness King Wei, who was sitting on the side, glared at his sister.

"Mine?"

The Ninth Princess rolled her eyes mercilessly.

"If you have it in the pot, take it yourself."

At this time, Li Xin walked in with two bowls of porridge, put one bowl in front of His Royal Highness King Wei, and then walked towards the back room with the other bowl.

His Royal Highness King Wei smiled: "You let her come out, we are not outsiders, we will all become a family in the future, we can't always hide from people, right?" ”

He was talking about Li Xin's sister Zhong Xiaoxiao.

Li Xin smiled: "The little girl suffered a lot when she was a child, it is normal to be afraid of life, it will be fine slowly, it is not good to force her at this time, I will just take it." ”

The Seventh Prince said helplessly: "Then you let the maid at home send it over, and you have to run it yourself." ”

Li Xin squinted his eyes and smiled: "Her Royal Highness the princess's craftsmanship is very expensive, I'm afraid that Your Majesty won't be able to eat it, so naturally I want to send it in person." ”

Ji Lingxiu, who was making Xiao Shizi happy, heard this, raised his head and glared at Li Xin, and Li Xin had already left the front hall and walked to the backyard at this time.

A bowl of porridge was sent to Zhong Xiaoxiao, Li Xin touched her head, and said with a smile: "Drink it quickly, you are blessed to drink Laba porridge." ”

The little girl nodded obediently, held the big bowl with both hands, and began to drink porridge slowly.

Li Xin touched her head again, turned his head and walked to the front hall, at this time Princess Qinghe had already taken Xiao Shizi and disappeared, Li Xin slowly sat next to His Royal Highness King Wei.

King Wei took a sip of porridge, glanced at Li Xin, and asked, "It's rare for Xiao Jiu to cook, don't you drink a bowl yourself?" ”

Li Xin blinked.

"Your Highness, you eat first, I'll eat if there is no problem with eating."

His Royal Highness King Wei was stunned at first, and then reacted that Li Xin was joking, and immediately laughed and scolded: "How can you say such an exaggeration, how can Xiao Jiu not know how to cook, and it will not come to such a point." ”

Saying this, he took two more sips, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Brother Xin'er, you are blessed, I have watched Xiao Jiu grow up over the years, and this is the first meal she cooked." ”

Li Xin smiled bitterly: "Most of it is still me doing it." ”

King Wei smiled first, and then suddenly said in a muffled voice: "Those subordinates of the fourth brother have been released." ”

The last time Chen Zhong went to the gate of Changle Palace to write a book, the result was that the Son of Heaven did not react, but caused Chen Zhong and others to be arrested, and now the two sides have been deadlocked for half a month, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is finally willing to let people out.

Li Xin frowned slightly.

"The prince softened?"

King Wei shook his head slowly.

"The edict of the East Palace wants the three of us to leave for the feudal domain immediately after the Shangyuan Festival, and if we delay it for one day, we will cut the lord to the people."

Speaking of this, King Wei glanced at Li Xin.

"On the edict of the East Palace, several prime ministers have printed it."
