The system forced me to be emperor

Xiao Rui shook his head and said: "No, I respect my master because of the etiquette of junior students, it has nothing to do with status, today only those who are masters are teachers."

"What a good master is a teacher! Then the old man will rely on his age and let him grow up." Master Meng stroked his beard and laughed, looking very happy.

Xiao Rui invited Master Meng to enter the house. Master Meng looked at the simple and unsophisticated house, nodded in approval, and said: "Your Highness lived in a shabby room before opening the mansion. This unsophisticated character is the crown of princes!"

Xiao Rui was a little embarrassed, he couldn't say that he didn't have money to buy a big house, but he couldn't show it on his face, but smiled, so he had to continue to pretend: "If the mountain is not high, there will be a fairy, and if the water is not deep, there will be a dragon." Ling, this is a shabby room, only my virtue! This kind of behavior is learned by students like the master. I think that when the Yuewen Academy was first established, you lived in a thatched hut to teach, and the sound of Lang Lang reading adorned the shabby room, why is it so shabby?"

This flattery made Master Meng laugh heartily, and said: "It's a humble room, but my Dexin, Your Highness has such a mind, and there is no such thing as a humble room. But, after all, he is a prince, and he wants to come to the court. Prepare the Prince's Mansion, which is the official residence that represents the face of the royal family."

Xiao Rui's face was instantly ugly.

This time I showed it thoroughly, just to let Master Meng see it.

Sensing Xiao Rui's embarrassment, Master Meng asked, "Your Highness, what's the matter? Did the old man say something wrong?"

Xiao Rui's face returned to normal, and he said with a smile: "It has nothing to do with Master, don't mention it, don't mention it. Master, please rest in the hall."

Meng Fuzi was curious, but seeing Xiao Rui's reluctance to speak, he didn't ask further.

Xiao Rui asked Master Meng to take the seat, but Master Meng couldn't refuse, so he could only sit at the head, and Xiao Rui sat at the main seat on the east side.

"Your Highness Seventh, is there the full text of the ancient prose you recited just now? After savoring it carefully, it turns out to be indescribably wonderful, not inferior to "Teacher's Talk"!" Meng Fuzi asked eagerly: "Can I let the old man read it?"

Xiao Rui was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that Master Meng was indeed an idiot, and he fell in love with "The Humble Room Ming" again!

"Of course there is the full text, today the student dared to show off in front of the master." Xiao Rui laughed.

Mencius said: "No, no, you have a specialization in your career. You may not be good at annotating scriptures, but you are good at articles, so you don't show off. Like an old man, you are not good at poetry, but you love poetry most. I laughed at the old man for this matter, but the old man just likes it so much, there is no way, haha..."

Xiao Rui also laughed, thinking that this octogenarian is really cute, with a hearty and free-spirited personality.

So, he asked Gao Quan to send him pen, ink, paper and inkstone, as well as the Huanhua paper that Emperor Xia had rewarded him with.

As soon as he picked up his pen, Jia Xu came in to refill his tea.

But Xiao Rui paused because he understood that Jia Xu had other intentions when he came in, and he came to remind him, because Wu Zhanfa's seeker was about to arrive.

Therefore, Xiao Rui quickly picked up a pen, wrote the title of "The Inscription of the Humble Room" in line, and wrote:

"If the mountain is not high, it will be famous if there are immortals. If the water is not deep, there will be dragons. This is a shabby room, but I am virtuous. The moss marks are green on the steps, and the grass is green in the curtain. There are great scholars in talking and laughing, and there are no white people in communication."

Meng Fuzi stood aside, watching mesmerizingly.

Sure enough, Wu Zhanfa came to the door and reported: "Report to Your Highness, the Inner Court Department sent someone to see you!"

Xiao Rui stopped writing, and said: "This king is entertaining distinguished guests, let Mr. Jia receive it for me."

"This..." Wu Zhanfa hesitated.

Master Meng hurriedly stopped him, saying: "No, no, the person from the inner court must be Zhao Gaogao, the head of the palm seal. He came to hand over the Prince's residence to His Highness. This is a big event. Meet him first, and we will communicate later!"

"Okay!" Xiao Rui said: "Then invite the people from the Inner Court Department to come in."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Master Meng, and said, "Master, do you still need to avoid it? The students are afraid that it will affect the position of Master."

Master Meng looked at both sides of the living room, and there was no place to evade, so he said: "The people in the inner court department don't know the old man, I'll give you a sentence at the desk, if you talk about yours, it will be considered as evasive. As for the old man's position, it is also It’s not something outsiders can influence with a few casual words, so don’t worry.”

"Then please wait a moment, master." Xiao Rui smiled and waited quietly for the next performance to start.

ps: Please collect it~~~ The results are not as good as those recommended by others. It is because I wrote it badly. Hey...

There is another chapter at 6:[-] p.m., dedicated to the one who worked so hard to build the building last night.

Chapter 79: Step [-]: Jealous of Evil Like Master Meng

Xiao Rui sat on the front seat, and then Wu Zhanfa led an eunuch from the inner court to come in.

The eunuch of the Inner Court Department entered the hall, and immediately knelt down respectfully to see: "The villain, Zhao Gaogao, the head of the Inner Court Department's palm seal, Xiao Mingzi, kowtows to His Highness King Xian."

"Huh?" Xiao Rui pretended to whisper, and asked, "Why didn't Zhao's palm print come?"

"My lord is busy with business, so I really don't have time to come here in person." Xiao Mingzi replied.

Instead of being angry, Xiao Rui smiled, and repeated: "Can't find time? Zhao's palm print is really busy. I heard that I can spare enough time to go to the homes of my two younger brothers, and I will be tired when I come here."

After a pause, Xiao Rui got up, and continued to ask: "Xiao Mingzi, the king asked you, Zhao Zhanyin sent you here, but came to tell me that the prince's mansion is ready?"

Xiao Mingzi was taken aback, maybe he was ready, didn't he tell you the day before yesterday?Today, I sent people to the Inner Court Department to ask Mr. Zhangyin, did I pretend to be stupid on purpose?

"Reporting to the lord, the funds of the Inner Court Department are really tight. It took all kinds of difficulties and dangers to prepare two sets of prince's mansions. For the sake of His Royal Highness, my lord must first give those two sets of mansions to His Highness Eighth and Ninth Highness. Your Highness." Xiao Mingzi immediately repeated what Zhao Gaogao had explained, and said: "If Your Highness is in a hurry, the Inner Court Division has already prepared a larger house, which is far bigger than the one that His Highness King Xian currently lives in. How about His Highness Move over now to stay temporarily?"

Xiao Rui asked back: "Then when will the Inner Court Secretary prepare the king's residence?"

"Well..." Xiao Mingzi looked at Xiao Rui's expression, and guessed that he would not dare to get angry, after all, he is a down and out prince. There is a saying, a down and out phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken, a tiger falls in Pingyang and is bullied by a dog, and so on!Let alone the last sentence.

Xiao Mingzi proudly said: "Reporting to His Highness King Xian, as for when it will be ready, it depends on how my Lord Zhao arranges it. It won't be too long, three to five months is not short, and three to five years is not too short." It's long. Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will definitely prepare a big and good Prince's residence for you."

Xiao Rui was furious, slapped the table, and shouted: "That's unreasonable! Did Zhao Gaogao bully me when I was young, and there was no one in the court? What did he do with my father's order? If outsiders know, it's fine to laugh at me. Where will my father's face be?"

Xiao Mingzi was stunned, his heart pounding, he felt that although he was showing off his power, if King Xian chopped him off, Master Zhang Yin would not vent his anger on him.

So the tone became more obedient: "His Royal Highness, please understand that it is not easy for the Inner Court Secretary, and Master Zhang Yin has no solution. Don't worry, the villain will report the situation to Master Zhao after returning, and prepare the mansion as soon as possible. Hand over to Your Highness."

by the desk.

Watching all this quietly, Meng Fuzi couldn't bear the anger in his chest, and directly threw the wolf hair in his hand, hitting the eunuch Xiao Mingzi.

"Which is tolerable and which is unbearable! There is no such reason, no such reason!"

Meng Fuzi shouted: "His Royal Highness King Xian is the son of the Xia Emperor, and he has a noble status. Now he is opening the mansion, and he is also the title of Prince Hehe. He, Zhao Gaogao, a small internal court official, dares to despise the dignity of the royal family and humiliate the majestic Prince Daxia. Really! The crime is unforgivable! Who gave him the guts! Go away, you go to the old man!"

Meng Fuzi blew his beard and stared, because of anger, his old body was a little unsteady.

Xiao Rui immediately felt guilty. In order to deal with the Inner Court Secretary, he let such an elderly Meng Fuzi be the vanguard. How can his conscience be at ease?

"Master, pay attention to your body." Xiao Rui supported him, patted his back, and sorted out his depression.

This move made Master Meng appreciate Xiao Rui even more, and his jealous nature made him decide that he must take care of this matter today, not only to repay Xiao Rui's feelings for the article, but also to prevent the dignity of the Great Xia royal family from being trampled on.

Meng Fuzi glared at Xiao Mingzi, and shouted: "Go back and tell Zhao Gaogao, let him think clearly, who gave him his position! Get out!"

Xiao Mingzi didn't know Master Meng, but he also knew that an old man of this age was not something he could mess with, so he left immediately and fled.

Master Meng looked at Xiao Rui and said, "His Royal Highness Xian, no wonder when I first entered the mansion, when I talked about the prince's mansion, your face turned pale. It turns out that the inner court secretary has been making things difficult for you."

Xiao Rui sighed, and began to show his acting skills as the best actor, and said: "To be honest, the Inner Court Secretary sent someone to tell me that my mansion was not ready the day before yesterday. I thought it was the Inner Court Secretary who really wasn't ready." After all, the three princes opened the mansion at the same time, manpower, material and financial resources really need to be mobilized to a great extent, so today I sent someone to invite Zhao Gaogao, and I was going to ask about the situation again, who knows that this kind of thing will happen."

"Hey, it doesn't matter where I live, but if it's too shabby, I'll be ashamed. But if I lose the face of the royal family, how can I face my father?"
