over ten thousand people

I originally planned to go out of the palace to relax and watch the excitement; it turned out that the excitement was indeed a big one, but it also brought back a lot of thoughts.Because of the dream, I feel that I know people fairly accurately; Xie Jingyu has never been able to dream clearly...

I am very annoying, very annoying.

Probably because the low air pressure was so obvious that no one dared to vent the air in the early morning of the second day.The fact that Xie Jingyu was besieged at the Qushui Stone Bridge has already spread among the officials, and all the officials felt that I was angered by the dereliction of duty of the Jinwu Guard. He looked as if he was afraid of being swept by the tail of my typhoon.

They are so knowledgeable, I am a little angry.Wei Ji of the Ministry of War said very little today, so I kept him when the court came down.After a few ordinary questions and answers, he was already sweating profusely, and his collar was soaked, showing a dark purple circle.He wanted to wipe it, but he didn't want to wipe it too obviously. His whole body was trembling like an autumn leaf, and he looked very pitiful.

The beating is almost done... "Yesterday Shangsi, did Wei Shangshu have an outing to have a banquet and have fun with the people?" I asked mercifully.

Wei Ji grasped the Huatou as if grasping at straws: "Shangsi should go on an outing and have a banquet, but I was in poor health yesterday, so I stayed in bed in the mansion and was unable to go out."

I finally got my head off my words, I thought to myself. "That's really a pity." I said a few more words casually, and then allowed him to kneel down.

Wei Ji knew that he had escaped a catastrophe, so he hastily promised in repeated voices: "I will be conscientious and loyal to the country, thank you for your majesty's love."

That's how it was pressed.I'm not afraid of being heard by others, after all, it's Xie Jingyu's bold offense to say it, but I don't need to make trouble for myself-it's already enough trouble.

In the afternoon, sister entered the palace again.After learning what happened on the Qushui River, she first disliked Xie Jingyu and made it her own, and then blamed me for bothering him.

"Even if the Jinwu Guard arrives late for an hour and a half, he is responsible for being blocked. Why do you use Qianniu Guard, Your Majesty?"

Although the tone is different, these words are exactly the same as what Xie Jingyu said.In order not to make my sister even more angry, I wisely kept silent about it.Because I know that my sister said this because I will always be the number one in her eyes; it would be ridiculous to say that Xie Jingyu is the same.

Yep, that's the problem.If Xie Jingyu must be different from my elder sister, what reason did he make such admonitions to me at that time?

After much deliberation, I still passed on Zu Miao, asking him to secretly contact Jing Zhaoyin and Yan Tongfu to find out what happened on the Qushui Bridge that day.

**

After Grain Rain, early summer is approaching, and it is another day off.I used to worry about the war in the Northwest every day, but now everything is ready and I just wait for the army to triumph, so I don't feel comfortable with leisure.

Since nothing happened, I casually flipped through the calendar that Si Tiantai handed in at the beginning of the year.I don’t know if I don’t look it up, this time I look it up...there are fifty or sixty days of holidays in the whole year, not including ten-day holidays, field holidays, and returning to Ning.Excluding sick leave and personal leave, one-third of the days in a year are on holiday.

No wonder the Jinwu Guards are so scattered, they are still resting while Ganqingzhen is working?

I suddenly felt that the previous requirements were still too low.Si Tiantai has never had much sense of existence, and after thinking about it for a long time, I can't remember who it is.If the Secretary and Superintendent were specially called in, the commotion would be too loud.What's more, if you want to change the system, you have to ask the Ministry of Rites to issue another fake peace order.It's better to draw up an imperial edict, and it's faster to directly add restraint clauses...

"Go and see if there is anyone in the Ministry of Education."

Actually, I didn't have much hope when I ordered this.After all, today's Lixia, even if there are people in Zhongshu Province, it is a sacrifice, and the draft imperial edict may not be able to meet my wishes.But after a while, Liu Jin reported back that Xie Jingyu had been outside the Chengqing Hall to wait for orders.

Among the three provinces, six ministries, Jingzhao Mansion, and Sixteen Guards in Xingjing City, which one of the three provinces, six ministries, Jingzhao Mansion, and Sixteen Guards requires the chief to come in person on weekdays?

I am quite suspicious.As soon as people came in, I asked bluntly: "I just heard from Liu Jin that Xie Fengge is on duty today?"

Liu Jin retreated quietly, cleverly pretending that she didn't hear her name.And Xie Jingyu saluted first, and then replied: "Your Majesty, it is indeed so."

I am more suspicious.Even if this is true, it's too coincidental that I call him on a whim now and then, right? "Next time, show me the roster of the Zhongshu Province."

Xie Jingyu respectfully agreed, and then asked: "Your Majesty recruited ministers here, why?"

I pointed to the desk calendar. "Come, Xie Fengge, take a look at this."

Xie Jingyu got up and moved forward, holding up the thick tome.If it were another person, I'm afraid he would be confused about my request; but he takes it very seriously, never in a perfunctory kind of seriousness.

Because of this, I once suspected that Xie Jingyu might write the fourth point he said in Linjianglou into a booklet and refer to me.Luckily, that didn't happen: either he found out that was bad for him, or realized that doing so was retribution.

But my reason tells me that these two reasons are wrong.As to what is right, I have no idea.

so annoying...

"His Majesty."

Feeling distracted, I cough lightly. "See what?"

"Si Tiantai is quite conscientious in deducing the astrology and solar terms."

Astrological solar terms are indeed the main content of the calendar, but I am not concerned with these. "anything else?"

"According to my humble opinion," Xie Jingyu replied, apparently choosing his words carefully, "There are too many holidays every year, so it's a little...loose."

"Oh?" I was intentionally noncommittal, "Then in your opinion, how can it be considered not loose?"

"Fake Ning orders follow the etiquette system. If there is no basis, it is not easy to change. Moreover, if the vacation is reduced rashly, the subjects may not respond. In this case, I think that Yushitai should also perform the role of supervision outside of weekdays. Don't let the matter of rotation become empty talk. In addition, anyone who asks for leave in the government office should report to the chief and sign the record; if there is a false report, he will be punished at the same time."

These words just went right to the bottom of my heart.Although I have already had an outburst about the Jinwuwei incident before, but if you want to infer my thoughts like Xie Jingyu, I am afraid that this is the only family in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. "Xie Fengge, I have only recently realized why my father made an exception to promote you back then. Such a wise plan is indeed a talent."

I don't know what these words hit, but Xie Jingyu looked up at me for the first time.He opened his mouth, closed it again, and said when he spoke again: "Your Majesty appreciates it. All I can do is to share your majesty's worries."

I made it clear that what I originally wanted to say was not this sentence, so I couldn't help but speculate.But it is obviously not a good time to ask now, I can only keep it in my heart, and plan to find a way to pry open that clamshell mouth in the future. "Just do as you said."

"The minister retired first?"

I was just about to get it right, but suddenly remembered——when I just proposed to marry Xie Jingyu, Xie Jingyu was so scared, wishing he could hide from me; now that I have let go, why does he still treat me like this? The scourge?Although I suspect him, I haven't done anything yet!

Thinking about it this way, I'm so angry again. "It's still early, let's play chess with me first."

It is normal for a courtier to play chess with the king, but Xie Jingyu seemed taken aback: "...Your Majesty?"

"I asked you to stay and play chess with me!" I repeated it angrily, and I began to regret the impulsiveness just now, but I still want to save face: "The Chengqing Palace is full of stinky chess baskets. It's getting itchy!"

Xie Jingyu hesitated for a while, and finally obeyed obediently.

I soon discovered that his chess skills are infinitely better than those of Liu Jin, and he may have been taught by a famous teacher.

As the saying goes, chess is like a person, and it is not bad at all.

This round of fighting from Sishi to noon did not end.I gave lunch to Xie Jingyu to continue playing chess with me after using it.However, until halfway through the application time, the black and white pieces were still deadlocked.

It would be inappropriate to be late, so I called a timeout. "Xie Fengge's chess skills are actually so good, it's an eye-opener for me today."

"Your Majesty's praise. It's just that His Majesty saved a hand. It's too ugly for a good minister not to lose."

I raised my eyebrows, I know what level I am.Xie Jingyu probably didn't hide his clumsiness: this person is like this, he does everything he can, but his words are extremely humble.If we have to say victory or defeat, I am afraid it will be a five or five number.

Because of this, I can never catch his fault.I can't help but think, this person is so easy to use, if he stays by my side for too long and replaces him at that time, I will be picky about his successor.

But these are all overthinking.If you only look at the present... It's been too long since no one can draw with me, and I must finish this game of chess.

"I asked Liu Jin to keep the chess game and continue it when I have a chance." After I finished speaking, I realized something was wrong, "Xie Fengge, is the latest holiday the Buddha's birthday?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, it is the Buddha's birthday on the eighth day of April."

"Then it may have to wait..." I began to think about the ten-day holiday.

Xie Jingyu obviously thought of something else. "I dare to ask, on the Buddha's birthday, will His Majesty go to the Temple of Mercy?"

Ci'en Temple is located in the south of Xingjing. It was built by the father and emperor in memory of his mother.In addition to enshrining the Empress Dowager, there is also a Buddha bone relic pagoda in the Ci'en Temple, and the pagoda tablet was written by the emperor himself.As a royal temple, in addition to daily incense offerings, it is also inevitable to give alms and pray for blessings during festivals.

I reckoned that what Xie Jingyu wanted to know was not whether I would go to the Temple of Mercy, but how I would get there. "Princess Zhaoyang will go to pray for blessings, so I will take a look." After all, it would be a waste of time and money to use my name to pray for blessings.

"Your Majesty, this..."

Xie Jingyu was hesitant to speak, obviously he didn't agree with me going on tour in subdued form again.I couldn't help but sweep my eyes at him.If it goes on like last time, I won't have a good temper!

Yuemo received my silent warning, and Xie Jingyu's words were more like human words: "Queen Chunde, Kunde, has the right way, Tong Guan has Wei, I have heard of it all along, and I admire it very much."

Chunde is the posthumous title of the empress.Although I can definitely bear the eight-character comment after admitting my mother, Xie Jingyu may not say so for no reason. "As it should be."

"I think so too. I'm overthinking myself, and I want to cook a fragrant syrup for Empress Chunde with my own hands; if it doesn't work, I can watch it from a distance outside the palace. However, outsiders of Ci'en Temple are not allowed to enter..."

He tried his best to speak in a convoluted and euphemistic manner, but I understood immediately.

On the Buddha's birthday, the Buddhist monastery has a Buddha bathing and fasting meeting, and boils fragrant medicine and sugar water to give to passers-by as a bond.I know that in the afterlife and any good fate, I just want peace of mind, but as the old saying goes, gods do not believe in non-human beings, and people do not worship non-human races. Xie Jingyu's request is indeed surpassed.Taking a ten thousand step back, even if he could go, he could only go secretly.so……

Xie Jingyu found such a lame excuse just to go to the Temple of Mercy with Zhen?

interesting.

"It's rare that Xie Fengge is so earnest, I agree." I want to see what flowers he can find!

The author has something to say: Your Majesty: Humph, I have already seen through you!

Xie Xiang: ...It's not what you think, Your Majesty!
