0621 Shaojun's worries
When Shen Chong saw the Queen Mother, he didn't have any special topics, just to explain the details of the turmoil in Jiangzhou, slander others, and show his loyalty by the way. The queen mother praised a few times, because it was not an official audience, and there was no special reward.
At the end of the meeting, Shen Chong mentioned the successor of the Huiji Neishi by the way, saying that he was willing to obey the edict of the Queen Mother, and then resigned and left in the Queen Mother's thoughtful expression.
Shen Zhezi sent his father out of Taicheng, but he stayed. When he was in the meeting just now, the emperor was also in the middle of the banquet, and he kept squeezing his eyebrows and glancing at Shen Zhezi. Sure enough, not long after he returned to the official office, he received a message from the chamberlain, and then entered the palace and went to the emperor's palace.
"Brother-in-law, come on, try to see which is better than the meal on the table and your family's food?"
As soon as Shen Zhezi stepped into the hall, the emperor waved in front of the case, signaling Shen Zhezi to come closer.
Recently, thanks to the queen mother's good mood, the control of the emperor is no longer as harsh as before, so the emperor has had a really good time during this time. The most obvious thing is that the cheeks are more fair and fat, after all, this kid is often in the garden, and there is no other pastime, and the situation is directly reflected in the diet.
At this time, there were more than a dozen dishes on the table in front of him, each containing different styles of pastries, some of which were learned from the Shen family, and some of which had never even been seen by Shen Zhezi.
Seeing that there was no lack of surprise on Shen Zhezi's face, the emperor smiled proudly: "Brother-in-law, you are not good at learning, and you have finally been compared to me in this food table?" Most of these delicacies are refined and made by myself, and I have already asked people to put another copy and send it to your house for my sister to taste and see, I am not wasting my time. and your inferior brother Xiaohe'er, who always complained about me competing with him for food earlier, I am a gentleman and elegant, regardless of my previous suspicions, I also sent him a copy. But I have to enjoy it more often in the future, hum ......"
Although the words are not exhausted, the meaning is already very clear, and it can be seen that regardless of the previous suspicions, they are all lies.
Now that there is no one else in the room, Shen Zhezi is no longer polite, he picked up a few pastries and tasted them, and then spit on the case, sweet and sweet: "The starch sugar is seasoned, just an embellishment, Your Majesty is stubborn about this, it's too much!" ”
"How so?"
Seeing that the fruits of his labor were not respected, the emperor threw two pieces of pastry in a row and chewed them in a frustrated manner, with a look of enjoyment on his face, and then sighed and said: "Brother-in-law, you have changed, and you are not as intimate with me as before. You're talking about gluttony again? It's just to persuade me not to indulge in these little things, or to know that it's right to forge ahead? ”
Shen Zhezi picked up the tea and rinsed his mouth, and after hearing the words, he almost squirted a mouthful of tea into the spittle, and he was really a little speechless in his heart. This kid really thinks too much, or is too confident in his craft, he really just complains that the pastries are unpalatable, and as a result, this kid would rather think that he is not a qualified king, than admit that his craftsmanship is not good.
"People's tastes are different, and after all, you still have to be happy."
Shen Zhezi stepped back from the case, he was really grateful for this table full of sweets, and he really didn't have such a good stomach: "But Your Majesty should really stop in moderation, everything is always not beautiful." Personnel is the most wonderful, always between what is gained and what is not obtained, a shallow taste of the aftertaste, the most memorable, exhaustive, but lost the essence of the essence. ”
At the beginning, the emperor was still sulking with his chin up, but when he heard Shen Zhezi say this, he slapped his thigh as if he was in a trance, and said with emotion: "Listening to what you say, brother-in-law, I understand the confusion that I have been confusing for a long time." Brother-in-law, do you know when I have eaten the sweetest food in my life? It was the sugar cake that you led your troops back to the capital the year before last, repelled the rebels, and sent them to you! After eating something else, it always loses the taste. I also said that the palace people are not enough, and I still don't feel beautiful when I do it myself. I see......"
Shen Zhezi was stunned when he heard this, how could he keep such a trivial matter in his heart, but he didn't expect the emperor to still remember it.
However, what my sister said earlier was different from what my brother-in-law said. She said that my food and drink taste, just like people get along, the more intimate the more you know the taste, not to the extreme, I don't know that there is a happy country in the world......"
When Shen Zhezi heard this, his expression became a little strange, but seeing that the emperor was just frowning slightly at the food table, he probably couldn't figure out the other meaning in his words based on his experience.
"I still think what my brother-in-law said is more reasonable, and the woman has a shallow view after all."
After a moment of silence, the emperor sighed, still thinking that his brother-in-law was more reliable than his sister-in-law. But after saying this, a trace of shyness flashed on his fat cheeks, and he leaned in front of Shen Zhezi and whispered: "Brother-in-law, I ask you about a private matter, don't tell others, especially not my sister!" ”
Seeing this kid's embarrassed expression, Shen Zhezi couldn't help but be curious, leaned over and nodded.
"Brother-in-law, before you and my sister got into trouble, did you ever worry that my sister was an ugly woman? It's not that I think beauty and ugliness can judge people's good or bad, but who doesn't want to be a pleasant person indoors? Although my sister is not ugly, but she is a wicked lady, are you disappointed? How to treat her and teach her to be the docile lady she is now? ”
After the emperor asked this, his fat face was already flushed, and his palms were rubbed together quite crampedly.
When Shen Zhezi heard this question, he couldn't help but burst out laughing, and when he saw that the emperor was even more embarrassed, he waved his hand and turned his back to barely put away his smile.
As soon as the words came out, the emperor was no longer all shy, but sighed and said, "I'm really worried...... The day before yesterday, my mother read "The Daughters of the Lie" again, brother-in-law, do you know "The Biography of the Daughters"? Inside, the king of Qi lost his morality, and the daughter of no salt faced Chen Si...... The queen mother has always treated me harshly, and I am also dissatisfied, I am really worried that she only wants Wenyi, and will choose a ...... for me because of merit and ugliness."
Shen Zhezi had already suppressed his smile, and when he heard the emperor talk about his worries, he couldn't help but turn his back and endure it for a long time, and when he turned around, he saw that the emperor was looking at him with a resentful face, and he was also a little unsure: "Isn't this enough?" ”
Hearing Shen Zhezi's uncertain tone, the emperor's face became even more sad, and he held his cheeks in his hands and sighed worriedly: "What kind of temperament is the queen mother, brother-in-law, don't you know...... You see, even you have this doubt, how can I rest assured! ”
"This is not necessarily true, there is no salt and virtue, and it is rare in the world. De Jong is both damaged, and it is not without a history to learn from. After all, virtue comes first, and everything is undecided at the moment, so why are you bothering yourself, Your Majesty. ”
Shen Zhezi didn't know how to comfort this brother-in-law who was obviously suffering from premarital anxiety, but he could deduce such a worry just because the Queen Mother read "The Biography of the Daughters", thinking about it this way, could it be that Jia Nanfeng also became the queen for this reason? It's really a strange idea.
Bang!
When the emperor heard Shen Zhezi say this, he was already so excited that he slapped the food case, and he was startled and frightened Shen Zhezi. And this kid pulled Shen Zhezi's wrist with an excited face, and sighed again and again: "I just know that it's right to complain to my brother-in-law!" Such a precedent, how could I not have thought of it! Although it is rude to talk about it, it is this worry after all, and I can't care about those false courtesies. If there is tolerance and immorality like my sister, you can also teach her to change. If you were born in this state, how can you change it! ”
When Shen Zhezi heard this, his face was a little unpleasant, he was his own lady, how could he allow others to be so degraded! Only then do you have Rong Wude, and your whole family has Rong Wude! There seems to be something wrong with such a belly. Forget it, when you go home, the wind blows on your pillow, and someone will always clean up this kid.
The emperor was still happy to find a strong reason for himself to persuade the queen mother, and after a while, he found that Shen Zhezi's face on the other side was a little unsightly, and then he realized that he was about to lose his words for a while, and then he smiled all over his face: "Brother-in-law, you won't go outside to publicize these things, right?" ”
Shen Zhezi sneered, do you need to publicize it to the outside world? When the wind blows on the pillow when you go home, it will be enough for you to have chicken feathers and duck blood. However, he didn't intend to let the little fat man be so relaxed and happy, so he sighed and said: "Since Your Majesty has to occupy a big position, when you know that everyone in the sea is concerned, it is inevitable that you will be troubled, and you will be reckless. The beauty of the Son of Heaven is beautiful in the clear Haiyan River, and the salty in the universe is not only dedicated to women! The choice of the latter position, those who can be attached, how can they be ruined because of their appearance within a few households! ”
In other words, you don't have to rejoice too soon, you're just a pony who sells your body and who can turn over in the future, you don't count.
"Brother-in-law, you've changed...... In the early years, I wanted to roll fat, I wanted to eat food, and I was trapped in the thief army, and you came to save me. How can you say that? In the early years, your lady abused me, but I laughed it off because of my brother-in-law's kindness! It's hard to say, I don't dare to talk about my brothers and relatives, I want to ask my brother-in-law to explain ......"
Hearing that the emperor was not lacking in grievances, Shen Zhezi was a little embarrassed, indeed the emperor didn't say these words to himself, and he couldn't find anyone else to talk to, and he really never took the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers as his intentions, and there was no lack of guilt. But he really can't really help anything substantially with this kind of thing.
After a little muttering, Shen Zhezi said: "Your Majesty's worries are not irrelievable. There has been an opportunity to look ahead to the fore recently, but it is really not up to me to decide where to come out. ”
"Can you take a look? It's good to take a look, brother-in-law, I really don't blame you. Actually, I, alas, I envy my sister for smiling all day long, worry-free...... You are truly kind to your sister, you are ...... Although the queen mother doesn't say anything, I can actually get a little bit of it. The people entrusted by my father, I, I also believe in my brother-in-law! ”
After Shen Zhezi heard this, he was slightly stunned, but he was a little unaccustomed to the emperor's tone, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, just patted the emperor's hand, and turned to what he said just now.
After months of noisy discussions, it's time to put an end to it. During the Chinese and Korean dynasties, it should be the emperor who came forward to feast and feast on the internal and external sages, and at the same time, there would be some courtesy, but this old ceremony did not last long, and only existed in the early stage of Taikang. Later, the political atmosphere was unprecedentedly tense, and it was abolished.
Shen Zhezi intends to use this Qing discussion to lay a precedent for his family's official election, which is of great significance for the rectification of the rule of officials in the future and even the formation of a tyrant to preside over the Northern Expedition, so he is also planning the last closing event recently. At that time, it will not be difficult to arrange for the emperor to take a look at the appearance of those alternative girls.
