happy rebirth

The emperor was determined to abdicate, no matter how much the ministers cried for their father and mother, it was useless.

The prince-to-be in the center of the vortex is a little idle. He seems to have completely accepted this matter, just like accepting the setting that people have to eat when they are hungry. Look at the clouds in the sky and the clouds in the sky" The favor and humiliation are not surprised and there is no intention to stay or leave.

But the prince-to-be seems to have not accepted this matter, because he doesn't seem to know what he needs to do.

Emperor Kairui hated iron and steel and said: "What do you do to me every day, is there a shortage of people here to serve you? Go and do what you should be busy with."

Prince De bowed his head and refined his wooden sculpture of a kitten fluttering a butterfly, and said in a serious tone: "Isn't taking care of the father the most important thing for a son-in-law?"

Emperor Kairui was very moved, then pointed his finger at Prince De's nose and cursed with a smile: "If it wasn't for Chang'er's face, I would immediately abolish your crown prince." This son is really useless!Emperor Kairui felt sorry for his hard-working life, he was so ill, and he was angry with his son.

Following the example of his second son, Li Xu, Prince De showed his cuteness to Emperor Karui with pretendingly pitiful eyes.

This is simply invisible!

Emperor Karui closed his eyes, telling himself that what he sees is what he sees.

Human beings are very contradictory creatures, and the emperor is the most contradictory human being.

In fact, if Prince De happily became his crown prince, he would entertain his clan members today and meet with ministers tomorrow, and he would keep an eye on the progress of the emperor's abdication all the time, hoping that he would become the lord of the world immediately , then Kai Ruidi would probably look at him even more disliked.Even if Prince De was chosen by Emperor Karui himself, after a long time, he would no longer regard him as his son, and maybe he would regard him as an enemy.

Just imagine, an emperor who is used to one-sidedness has to choose to abdicate due to physical reasons, but the son who is his successor is jumping around in front of his eyes every day, can he feel at ease?He is old and sick, but his son is happy. Isn't this poking his heart?

Therefore, Prince De was worthless, and Emperor Kairui was angry, but the resentment in his heart caused by being forced to abdicate was much less.Emperor Kairui couldn't care less about his sentimental feelings about his hero's twilight, and he was only thinking about how to train the unreliable new prince.

In order to create momentum for the new emperor, Emperor Kairui began to frequently recruit some people into the palace to speak, including people from the Chongwen Museum.

Xie Jinhua told Ke Qi the reason in private, saying: "The emperor wants us to produce some results as soon as possible, so that after the new emperor ascends the throne, it will be published in a book and promoted to the world." This is to build a reputation for the new emperor.It can be said that Karuidi thought of this trick, and really loved Prince De very much.

The book to be repaired by the Chongwen Museum is called "Chongwen Quanshu".Being able to name it with "Full" shows that this is a series of books with rich content.Ke Qi sometimes heard Xie Jinhua talk about his work, and felt that this book could be called "Carry's Encyclopedia of Humanities", covering classics, history, literature and collections.

If you don't work hard for ten or twenty years, this set of books will never be finished.Now that Emperor Karui wants it, Chongwen Museum can only provide the first one.

"The emperor is using this method to tell everyone that his abdication is not a joke." Ke Qi said.

"Huh?" Xie Jinhua wanted Ke Qi to explain in detail.

Ke Qi whispered: "Whether the emperor is willing or not, he can quickly establish the crown prince and propose to abdicate, he must be looking forward to the stability of Chao Gang. Otherwise, with his current physical condition, if these things are not arranged as soon as possible, in case If it fails one day, will the whole court be in chaos? And since he has chosen the path of abdication, no matter what he thinks in his heart, he must make his attitude clear in the open."

If the emperor showed a reluctance to delegate power, then the ministers would feel that there was a loophole to take advantage of.In the future, if the ministers refuse to accept the new emperor, they will be able to go to the Supreme Emperor to sow discord.In this way, the meaning of Karuidi choosing to abdicate at this time disappears.

Therefore, Emperor Kairui has to act as if he wants to be happy as the emperor who is not in power!

"The emperor is quite generous." Xie Jinhua said with emotion.

Ke Qi shook his head and said, "Why do you think the emperor chose Prince De? Prince De has been unambitious for decades. Even if the emperor made a gesture of completely delegating power, would Prince De really accept it? They After performing well in front of outsiders, Prince De will definitely report everything to the emperor in private, if the emperor is in better health, he can still take over all the things again without conflicts."

Xie Jinhua understood.Father and son of the Tian family, no matter how good the relationship is, there are still calculations in it.

"Let me give you an analogy." Ke Qi suddenly had an idea, "The ministers are like mother-in-law, Prince De is the husband, and the emperor is the new daughter-in-law who just entered the door. In front of the mother-in-law, the new daughter-in-law deliberately pretends to be The appearance of taking the husband as the sky, trying every means to protect the face of the husband, so that the mother-in-law is satisfied, and not to find bad luck for their young couple. After the young couple closed the door, the husband knelt down for the new daughter-in-law with a slap. He also beat his leg to the new wife and said, daughter-in-law, you performed really well outside, daughter-in-law, are you tired, daughter-in-law, what do you think of my strength?"

Ke Qi played this analogy very vividly, but it was a little too serious.

However, actor Ke suddenly became a master of acting, and acted while talking.He really squatted down and beat Xie Jinhua's leg twice. The last few words were puns, but in fact every word was teasing Xie Jinhua.Xie Jinhua hurriedly drew back her feet.

"Get up!" Xie Jinhua said.

Film King Ke said aggrievedly: "What my daughter-in-law says is what she says, and I will listen to my daughter-in-law."

Xie Jinhua: "..."

Because of the emperor's sudden whim, the entire Chongwen Hall had to catch up with the schedule, so Xie Jinhua became very busy, and even had to live in the Chongwen Hall for a time.Fortunately, the conditions in Chongwen are acceptable, there is a place to live, a place to bathe, and the food is fine.Ke Qi sent Xie Jinhua some food every other day.

Although the work intensity is high, it seems inhumane to work overtime like this, but everyone in the Chongwen Museum is very enthusiastic about their work.Because as long as the first volume of "Chongwen Quanshu" is successfully submitted when the new emperor ascends the throne, they will definitely be rewarded, and they should be promoted to varying degrees.

Everyone who thought it would take ten or eight years to get promoted was excited!

Xie Jinhua has no ambitions in his official career, but it is always a good thing to get the chance to be promoted.Besides, even though he didn't even have time to go home, Ke Qi was able to bring him some snacks every now and then.With these snacks, Xie Jinhua felt full of energy when transcribing classics.

On this day, Princess Deqin asked someone to bring a basket of fruit to her natal family.After staying up for a whole winter, and spring has not yet arrived, fruits have become a rarity. It is estimated that Princess Deqin also got a reward from the palace to have these fruits.Mrs. Zhuang divided the fruits, and there were two in Weizheng Pavilion.Ke Qi directly asked someone to cut the fruit into cubes, and made some jelly, and then took advantage of the lunch break to go to the Chongwen Hall from the Minister of General Affairs.

This is the first time Xie Jinhua has eaten jelly with diced fruit.He divides the jelly in two and saves one for evening.

Ke Qi felt that Xie Jinhua was tired and thin.Xie Jinhua also felt that Ke Qi was tired and thin.

"Before you wanted to go to the theater to watch a play, I made a special reservation. But you are so busy, you probably can't go." Ke Qi said.

"What play?" Xie Jinhua asked.

"A Tale of a Good Fate" was originally supposed to start in the first month, but when the royal incident happened, the entire capital was under martial law, and it was still under martial law to varying degrees in the first month, so the performance of "A Tale of a Good Fate" was temporarily cancelled.The play that succeeded "The Story of a Good Fate" is "The Story of Cong Rong".This was originally a novel serialized in "Qiu Lin Wen Bao", but it was adapted into a play by several of the most famous opera troupes in the capital.

"Cong Rong Ji" can replace "Liang Yuan Ji" because this drama is very politically correct, and the imperial court is secretly promoting it.

Faced with this situation, Xie Jinhua was naturally very disappointed.

Ke Qi didn't understand Xie Jinhua's disappointment, and said: "Although there is no "Liang Yuan Ji" that you want to read, I think "Cong Rong Ji" is quite good. Let's not say that the novel is the outline provided by me. People are also everyone in the theater, so I said that there are a lot of martial arts scenes in this play, and it will definitely be very lively when watching the play... However, since you don't have time, I can only give the ticket to the third brother and the third sister-in-law .”

Xie Jinhua stuffed a spoonful of jelly into Ke Qi's mouth.

Ke Qi didn't know that he had stepped on a bomb.He's really not interested in "The Story of a Good Fate", which is about love and love at first sight!

Xie Jinhua secretly sulked for a while, and decided to wait until "The Story of a Good Fate" was actually staged before giving Ke Qi a good look!

The lunch break was not long, and the Tongzheng Envoy was not close to the Chongwen Museum, so Ke Qi didn't stay long before leaving.Xie Jinhua and Ke Qi shared a portion of jelly, and returned to their desks with the rest.He put the jelly away, and then turned his attention to work.

During the period, Xie Jinhua needed to check a piece of information, so he left briefly.

When Xie Jinhua came back, Mr. Mu was sitting in his seat.Xie Jinhua knew that the teacher was here to check the progress of the work, so he stepped forward and saluted Mr. Mu.Now that everyone is in a hurry, there is no polite words between the master and apprentice, and Xie Jinhua directly starts to report to work.

"Very good." Elder Mu looked at his closed disciple with great satisfaction, "I chose you to do the last round of proofreading, and it really is the right choice."

Many people in the Chongwen Museum were dissatisfied with Xie Jinhua's age, but they were all convinced by his talent in the end.

Xie Jinhua smiled shyly.Suddenly, he turned his eyes and saw an empty food box.Where's his jelly? !

Elder Mu coughed twice, and said, "When you first asked me to be your teacher, I gave you a word. Do you still remember what it was?"

Xie Jinhua's eyes were blank, and his heart ached, but he still had to answer Mr.'s question.He respectfully said, "It's the character Ren."

"That's right, it's exactly the word benevolence. There are three talents in heaven, earth and man. Benevolence follows the second and disobeys the third. It tells us that to be a human being, we must imitate the heaven and the earth. Do things with your heart." Mu Lao said in a persuasive manner, "My son said, a person with lofty ideals is benevolent. If you don't seek to survive, you will harm benevolence, and if you kill yourself, you will achieve benevolence. We must always be ready to dedicate ourselves to the realization of benevolence. We must be fraternal and tolerant. .”

"Okay, I don't blame sir, although you ate my jelly." Xie Jinhua said sensiblely.

Elder Mu looked at his good apprentice with relief.

Xie Jinhua looked at the completely empty box, and added in a resentful tone: "However, how can you finish eating alone without leaving me a bite?" Their relationship between master and apprentice is very good, so Xie Jinhua doesn't need to eat it. Too restrained, sometimes you can say some harmless jokes.

Elder Mu said seriously: "I would like to cultivate my heart of benevolence, but I can't accept the way it is dead without a whole body."

Xie Jinhua: "..." Sir, I'm serious, I might have to betray my teacher.
