The Invincible Sixth Prince

In the evening, the palace prepared a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner, and a group of people celebrated the New Year in the palace in a lively manner.

However, Yun Zheng learned his lesson this time and did not dare to indulge in drinking again.

He usually just drinks a little, and that's enough.

After dinner, Qin Qihu and the others were not in a hurry to leave.

The women set up two mahjong tables and competed with each other in playing mahjong.

Qi Yan and the second son of the Qin family, who had just had a fight in the afternoon, had already reconciled and were playing together again, playing the game of tossing pots.

Yun Zheng and his friends were lying on recliners with a stove lit beside them.

Yun Zheng glanced at the children who were playing and thought to himself that if he found a saltpeter mine, he would have to make some fireworks.

Zhang Xu looked over and asked Yun Zheng curiously: "Your Highness, what are fireworks?"

"what?"

Yun Zheng was stunned, "Did I just mention fireworks?"

I rely on!

Can this birdman read minds?

"Yup!"

Qin Qihu took over the conversation, "Just now I heard you mumbling about what kind of fireworks you were going to make, what kind of fireworks are these..."

"This one……"

Yunzheng was speechless.

How the hell do I explain this to them?

"I know."

At this time, Miaoyin, who was playing mahjong nearby, turned around.

"you know?"

Yun Zheng was surprised.

No way?

I don’t think I’ve ever talked about fireworks with anyone?

Could it be that I said it when I was drunk or talking in my sleep?

And it happened to be heard by Miaoyin?

"Of course I know!"

Miaoyin smiled proudly, "Aren't fireworks the flowers of the tobacco you mentioned?"

"..."

Yun Zheng was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this explanation!

"What, did I say something wrong?"

Miaoyin asked in confusion.

"No no."

Yun Zheng shook his head repeatedly, "Tobacco flowers are abbreviated as fireworks! My beloved concubine is really smart!"

As Yun Zheng spoke, he couldn't help but burst into laughter again.

Everyone looked confused and had no idea what he was laughing at.

Yun Zheng smiled extremely happily, but his heart was filled with emotion.

Before I knew it, another year had passed.

Nonsence!

It’s been a year of rest and recuperation!

Yes, it means to rest and recuperate!

Even if the king of heaven comes, he will take a rest and recuperate!

……

Imperial City.

Compared with usual times, the New Year atmosphere in the palace this year seemed a little quieter.

Although Emperor Wen held a family banquet in the palace as in previous years, there were far fewer people attending.

The second prince and the fifth prince were also confined to their homes and were not allowed to leave even during the New Year.

The fourth prince Yun Ting has fled to Shuobei to join Yun Zheng.

The ninth prince was demoted to a commoner and guarded the tomb of the previous emperor in Tai Mausoleum.

Among the princes, apart from the Crown Prince Yunli, only the Eighth Prince and the youngest Eleventh Prince were by his side.

It should have been a lively time, but Emperor Wen seemed a little bored. He had no interest in drinking or enjoying singing and dancing.

The only consolation is that the sons who are not around are still alive.

After a long while, Emperor Wen slowly stood up and said, "Prince, please walk with me!"

"Yes."

Yun Li immediately stood up, took the cloak offered by the palace maid, put it on Emperor Wen, and helped Emperor Wen walk out of the hall.

The father and son came outside the hall, and Emperor Wen pointed to the side. Yun Li immediately understood and ordered people to bring soft couches and charcoal fire.

Emperor Wen half-lay down on the couch, and Yun Li did not sit down either, but served him beside him.

Emperor Wen's gaze passed through the eaves and fixed on the starry sky. No one knew what he was thinking.

After half a cup of tea, Emperor Wen slowly spoke: "I heard that you sent someone to give Lao Jiu two sets of new clothes a few days ago?"

Yun Li was terrified and knelt down immediately: "I am guilty, please punish me, father!"

"Get up, get up!"

Emperor Wen raised his hand gently and said with a smile: "I just want to ask, why did you suddenly think of sending clothes to Old Nine?"

Yun Li stood up slowly and said respectfully, "My ninth brother is young and was deceived by a traitor. It's not his fault! Although he was demoted to a commoner, he is still my brother after all. The weather is cold, and I am afraid that my ninth brother will be cold..."

"You are more thoughtful than I am. I am very relieved."

Emperor Wen grabbed Yun Li's hand and patted it gently, "Just give him some clothes, as for other things, don't give him anything else! Since he is a commoner, he should be treated like a commoner."

"My son, I understand."

Yun Li nodded slightly.

Emperor Wen showed a trace of relief on his face. After a little thought, he ordered: "You can go to your second brother and fifth brother's house later! You can have a drink with them. I won't go."

Yun Li paused for a moment, then bowed and said, "Then I will give them some money and property on behalf of the emperor. What do you think?"

"Ah."

Emperor Wen nodded gently, "You have been exhausted this year, so take a good rest these few days. You don't need to come to pay your respects..."

“Father, this is inappropriate!” Yun Li shook his head and said, “It is my duty to pay my respects to you, Father and Mother. How can I…”

"Stop it." Emperor Wen patted Yun Li's hand. "I used to worry that you would be lazy in government affairs, but now I am afraid that you will be too diligent and exhaust yourself! Take advantage of these few days of rest to have a good rest! You are the crown prince, not a beast of burden."

"Thank you, Father."

Emperor Wen had already said so much, it was impossible for him to refuse.

He had suffered a lot of humiliation this year, but as long as he was not so angry that he could not get up, he would go to court in the morning and pay his respects as usual.

He really should have a good rest.

He got a little excited thinking about the days when he could sleep until noon.

The father and son chatted outside the hall for a while and then went back inside.

After a while, Emperor Wen left the table first and asked Yun Li to chat with everyone on his behalf.

After leaving the palace, Emperor Wen got on the sedan chair. Not long after he left, he lifted the curtain and told Mu Shun: "Go to Qin..."

Emperor Wen suddenly stopped talking halfway, and then lowered the curtain, "Go back to the bedroom!"

That's it!

No one is here anymore!

There's no point in going and taking a look, as it will make it easier for people to guess your thoughts.

If things go wrong, Laojiu’s life might even be in danger.

"Your Majesty, how about we go to the Buddhist temple?"

Mu Shun said respectfully: "Our dynasty has also suffered many disasters this year. I hope that the Buddha will bless us with peace in the coming year..."

On the way to the Buddhist temple, you will pass by the sealed Qinxin Palace.

"never mind."

Emperor Wen shook his head gently, "I am tired, let's go back to the palace!"

"Yes!"

Mu Shun took the order and said no more.

Soon, Emperor Wen returned to his bedroom.

As soon as Emperor Wen lay down on the couch, Mu Shun respectfully presented him with some secret reports.

Emperor Wen took them and looked at them carefully, nodding his head from time to time and shaking his head slightly from time to time.

After reading several secret memorials, Emperor Wen handed them to Mu Shun.

Mu Shun immediately threw several secret reports into the brazier next to him.

Only after confirming that several secret reports had all turned to ashes did Mu Shun return to Emperor Wen.

Emperor Wen closed his eyes to rest, but he was silently calculating in his mind.

Should we send the warship to Lao Liu now, or wait until we build more warships and then send them together?

Ok……

Since the rebellious son is not holding on to the warship, the warship should not be used for the time being.

Just wait!
