Shen Chu's heart was so warmed by his little brat, and the embarrassment he had just now dissipated a lot.He even couldn't help but have some fantasies in his heart. It seems that it would be good if the family of three lived together happily and happily.But he drove away this idea in a flash, did he think that the recent life was too comfortable.

At this time, Zai Zai had long since lost sleepiness, stood up while picking up the red official robe in front of Shen Chu, and said softly, "Daddy, I saw you kissing Your Highness."

As he said that, he kissed Shen Chu's face, and said with a pure face, "Zai Zai wants to kiss Daddy too."

Shen Chu's whole face was as red as a tomato, he hesitated for a long time and couldn't explain why.

Zai Zai frowned, as if thinking hard, and finally said, "Daddy, if you want His Highness to be your mother, Zai Zai can think about it."

Shen Chu's head was full of black lines, and he didn't know where the little guy got so many strange thoughts in his little head, so he nodded his little nose and said, "Little fool, how can Your Highness be your mother?"

Zai Zai looked puzzled, "Why not?"

Li Di also stared at him and said, "As long as you want."

Shen Chu turned his face away and said, "Zai Zai is ignorant, are you also stupid?"

Li Di's expression dimmed in an instant, and he remained silent.

Probably because the disappointment in him was too obvious, Shen Chu couldn't help explaining a few more words, "As you and I, people would be jealous if we got too close, let alone you and I are men."

Li Di's eyes sank, and his dark pupils were like black holes, "If no one can make you worry about it, will you be willing to be with Gu?"

Shen Chu was stunned for a moment, as if if he should, this person would make some great decision, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Li Di seemed to know his answer, and said in a deep voice, "Gu understands, Gu will let you have no worries."

Shen Chu felt anxious, and grabbed Li Di's sleeve, "Your Highness, don't do stupid things for me."

Li Di lifted his chin and said with a smile, "If I can be with you, even though there are tens of thousands of people, I will not regret it."

Shen Chu's heart skipped a beat.

The two of them had nothing to say along the way, but Zai Zai kept chattering beside him and didn't know what they were talking about, so it wasn't embarrassing.

At the door, when Shen Chu picked up Zai Zai and was about to get off the car, he said politely, "Does Your Highness want to come in and have a seat?"

Li Di tilted his head to look at him, propped his forehead with one hand, raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I still can't, I'm afraid that I won't want to leave if I go in—"

Shen Chu directly lowered the car curtain, blocking the man's sight, secretly thinking that this man always violated the rules, and ran to the door, but couldn't help turning around, and saw Li Di half-opening the car curtain, still watching he.He blushed instantly, turned around and went in again.

······

The days at Zhongshu Province passed quickly. Except for a few days when I was a little leisurely and scanned almost all the files in the file room into 007's system, the days after that were almost too busy to touch the ground every day.The most important thing to do every day is to deal with various memorials. At the beginning, they are divided into categories and key points are circled in red, then they collect relevant information, list items and even give preliminary suggestions. Later, they not only have to deal with various memorials of ministers, but also draft memorials. .Like Wu Lian now, he is also responsible for drafting imperial edicts, while Chang Ming is mainly responsible for copying.

On this day, Shen Chu happened to step on the spot again, and Wu Lian and Chang Ming had already arrived early and were talking together.He still felt embarrassed, but every morning when Zai Zai was warm and soft in his arms, it was so inhumane that he was about to get up at dawn.

Both of them greeted Shen Chu with smiles, Chang Ming leaned over and said, "Master Shen, I don't know if you heard that His Majesty is going to send officials to inspect salt recently?"

Shen Chu shook his head.He has been so busy recently that he was caught by Lu Xiang when he was free, and his daughter was sold overtly and secretly after work, so he didn't have the energy to inquire about these gossips.

Chang Ming has a pair of peacock eyes and a round face, and looks very festive, but what doesn't match his appearance is that he writes in lower script with hairpin flowers in one hand, which is quite delicate and beautiful.

He said shrewdly, "This is a rare and good opportunity. An inspector can take up the post at the seventh rank. It seems that the rank is not high, but he can inspect the governor of the state capital. He can deal with small matters directly, and he can still handle urgent matters."

"More importantly, being appointed as a patrol envoy by His Majesty shows that His Majesty trusts him, and he can be promoted and make a fortune when he comes back."

Shen Chu wondered, "But the patrol envoy is also the censor of Yushitai, so what does it have to do with us?"

Chang Ming: "This patrol envoy will not only send the censors from the Yushitai, but like this patrol, there are some ways that laymen don't know. Sometimes His Majesty will kiss you."

"Like Zheng Shilang of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, who used to be in our Kongmu room. Since he went to Hedong Road for inspection, he was promoted to the Ministry of Criminal Justice after he came back. Now he is the minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

"If Lord Chang and Lord Shen can get this opportunity like Lord Zheng, they will definitely be able to make a comeback when they come back."

Shen Chu laughed a few times to accompany him, but he didn't take it to heart. He had only been in Zhongshu Province for a few months, and it would never be his turn.If this is the case, Wu Lian has a great chance, so he followed Chang Ming and complimented him a few words.Wu Lian said a few words of modesty on his face, but his expression was radiant, as if he was determined to win, as if he had seen the moment when he was promoted to the rank and title after returning to Beijing smoothly.

The desire of these two people was so direct and passionate, and it seemed quite innocent, Shen Chu couldn't help laughing.And with Wu Lian's qualifications, it is indeed enough to be sent out as a patrol envoy.

The time for the three of them to make jokes was also limited, so they soon buried themselves in their desks and went about their own business.

After a while, Master Sun came over and explained to them, "You have heard about the fact that His Majesty will send a censor to inspect the salt recently. Draft two memorials with Shen Chu, and hand them in three days later."

Three should be.

After taking Master Sun away, Shen Chu saw both Wu Lian and Chang Ming looking at him in the blink of an eye. After he found out, Wu Lian quickly turned away his eyes. Chang Ming was a little surprised and understood, and the atmosphere was a little subtle and awkward for a while. .

Shen Chu rubbed his nose, opened his mouth to say something, and saw the two quickly returned to their respective desks and started working hard again, especially Wu Lian, who seemed to be working harder.

Shen Chu was also very helpless, thinking in his heart, he didn't want to go to Xunyan, wouldn't it be good to stay in the capital with Zaizai, it would take several months to go to Xunyan, and when he came back, Zaizai might turn from a baby to a young adult, What would he regret.But he still has to do the assigned work well, and he can't slow down.

The day passed quickly, and when it was time to be on duty, I felt like I didn't know what was going on, and my head was a little blurry.After packing up all the items, Shen Chu ordered the value first.

Wu Lian and Chang Ming both came earlier than him and left later than him every time. They were very dedicated, and Chang Ming could understand that he was young and single. Sweet wife, he doesn't understand that it's not good to go home early and have a hot wife in her arms?Anyway, every day when he was on duty, he was anxious to go home to see his little fat cub, and even the emperor couldn't stop him.

However, I just arrived at the gate today, but was passed by a palace servant, who was wearing a crimson palace uniform, young, bowed his head and said, "Master Shen, Your Highness the Crown Prince welcomes you."

Shen Chu was very unhappy, but he didn't dare to refuse, so he could only follow the palace servants to the East Palace listlessly.

The East Palace is located on the east side of the Imperial Palace. Since the prince's wedding, all affairs have become relatively independent.

It was supposed to be a taboo thing for the emperor to invite ministers from Zhongshu province, but the prince has already participated in politics, and the emperor's attitude of favoring the prince after the wedding is also obvious, so there is no big problem.

The East Palace can basically be regarded as a shortened version of the Imperial Palace, even a set of staff is complete, but Shen Chu feels that it is still like a play house game for children, but the royal play house is more grand, Even the games played in the house are learning how to be an emperor.

The distance from Zhongshu Province to the East Palace is not close, and it takes more than a stick of incense to arrive.

After the palace man reported in the second gate, another palace man came to lead Shen Chu in.I saw the prince dressed in white, darkly embroidered with golden python patterns, and wearing a golden crown, sitting under a tree in the courtyard and playing chess.

Shen Chu thought to himself, the crown prince and Li Di are quite similar to Emperor Yun, but the feelings of the two are completely different. The crown prince has always been gentle and polite, making people feel like a spring breeze, but Li Di is much colder and more serious, and has always rejected people from thousands of miles away. outside.

He stepped forward and bowed his hands to the prince, and the prince motioned him to sit opposite.

Prince: "Let's play a game of chess with Gu."

Shen Chu: "I'm not very good at it, so I just left indiscriminately." As he said that, he lowered the sunspot on his hand directly to the position of Tianyuan.

The prince looked at him in surprise, smiled suddenly, and put the white son in his hand close to him.

Shen Chu felt puzzled, and wondered if there was anything wrong with putting the chess pieces in the center, because when playing backgammon, they would rush to occupy the center position.But he didn't really come to play chess, he was still thinking about going home early to accompany Zai Zai, so he said directly, "I don't know why Your Highness summoned the officials?"

The prince smiled and said, "I think the friendship with Mr. Shen is like a game of chess."

Shen Chu wondered in his heart, where did this go? Is there any friendship between the two of them?Perhaps in the eyes of others, he should really be grateful to the prince, and most of them think so in this period of Jinshi, but he is a little different.

But he said, "I don't dare to be an official, the prince summons me, let alone a game of chess, ten or a hundred games of chess are no problem."

The prince seemed not very satisfied with his answer, but he couldn't find any mistakes, so he turned to the main topic and said, "I heard that my father intends to send you to Jianghuai area to inspect salt?"

Shen Chu looked surprised, he really didn't know that he was the person involved, and he only heard about the salt inspection from Chang Ming in the morning.

He said honestly, "I don't know."

He seemed to think about it for a while, "But I have not been in office for a few months since I took office in the Ministry of Education, and there are many capable people in the court. I think your majesty will not entrust such an important matter to the subordinate officials." The prince rushed to summon him?The reason behind it is too hard to think about.The East Palace is all under the eyes of the emperor, and now he plays a game of chess with the prince, and the emperor knows at night that his first piece fell to the Zhongyuan position.

Or the candidate was still undecided, but the prince deliberately did this to make the emperor suspicious of him, so he was successfully removed as a candidate.But no matter what, the crown prince showed that the matter of patrolling salt was related to his interests, even though Shen Chu didn't know it.Thinking about it, the water is very deep, and Shen Chu didn't want to go there.

The prince laughed softly, "Lord Shen is too modest. I have also seen the countermeasures of your imperial examination, pointed out the disadvantages of the times, and the countermeasures proposed were even praised by the emperor, so I personally promoted you to be the number one scholar. With your talent, you can only We just need a bigger stage."

Don't make this solicitous intention too obvious.

Shen Chu: "Prince Miao Zan, what he learned before he became an official was nothing more than castles in the sky, and it is only when he really acts that he realizes the difficulties."

Prince: "Mr. Shen is too modest. As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a good minister chooses a master to serve. I believe that Mr. Shen is smart enough to know what to choose, what not to choose, what to do, and what not to do. "

"With Mr. Shen's talent, governing the country and the world is just around the corner. Don't be confused for a while and ruin yourself. It's unfortunate for the common people."

Shen Chu thought in his heart that this prince can really speak, if it is a scholar like Fan Yong, he has really grasped their temperament, if they don't talk about getting promoted and getting rich, just talking and keeping quiet is their ambition to govern the country and the world.It's a pity that the person in front of him is Shen Chu, who doesn't have any ambitions, but just wants to raise a baby safely.And he really doesn't think there's anything unusual about him. To him, it's not flattery, it's flattery.

However, he is capable of superficial skills, he bowed his head and said, "Your official understands."

The prince was very satisfied with Shen Chu's understanding of current affairs, and since he had achieved his goal, he didn't keep him any longer.He just didn't expect that for a scholar like Shen Chu, the thieves who learned in person and in back were not much worse than those old foxes in the court.

Before leaving, I saw a figure in the window of the courtyard, the belt was getting wider, and he was lying on the ground. He looked familiar, but he didn't have time to think about it.He was still in a hurry to go home and see his son smash it.
