Everyone is coveting my beauty

At this time, the raindrops were falling heavily, and the people were looking for places to hide. Their faces were full of excitement. After a long drought, the well water was about to bottom out. They didn't expect that Chu Heng could really pray for rain.

They seemed to have deified Chu Heng in their hearts, and truly regarded him as the real dragon emperor. If he wasn't the real dragon emperor, why would the sky start to darken when they read the first sentence of praying for rain?

With God's blessing, Great Chu will surely prosper again.

Seeing that it was raining, all the officials in Jingli also wanted to find a place to hide, but Chu Heng did not move on the platform for praying for rain, and they did not dare to move, so they couldn't help muttering in their hearts, what are the emperor and the regent doing!

Rong Zhen already guessed what Chu Heng wanted to ask, and frowned slightly: "Chu Heng, let's go back and ask."

He was afraid that Chu Heng would not directly tell him what he wanted, but came to ask him what he meant, but he could not answer.

But at this moment, Chu Heng was stubborn. He felt that it was God's will, and he had to ask clearly at this moment.

He pursed his lips, looked fixedly at Rong Zhen, and looked shyly in his eyes, which was particularly touching: "Uncle Huang, what do you think of me in your heart, do you treat me as a junior, or, you can still treat me as a Spend the rest of your life together?"

The most worrying thing really came, Rong Zhen clenched his hands into fists, restraining the turbulent emotions in his heart, his eyes were instantly bloodshot, and he looked a little scary, but Chu Heng didn't dodge or evade, with a look of anticipation.

"I..." Rong Zhen's tone was difficult, "I can't answer."

Since Rong Zhen could remember, he had never been so powerless for a moment. He closed his eyes, not daring to look at Chu Heng's eyes: "You are weak and can't get in the rain. Let's go back to the palace first, and I'll talk to you in detail after we go back .”

But these words could not appease Chu Heng. The light in his eyes gradually went out, bit his lip, and still couldn't help crying. Fortunately, it was raining, and the people couldn't see their emperor crying because he was politely rejected. Soaked in rain, cold and heavy, he could barely walk.

"Needless to say, I understand." Chu Heng walked down the rain praying platform alone, and said to You An: "Let all the officials disperse quickly, and we will return to the palace."

You'an immediately asked all the officials to retreat loudly, held a paper umbrella to protect Chu Heng, and got on the imperial chariot, and then jumped on the shaft of the chariot, telling the Imperial Forest Army to drive away quickly. He was also puzzled in his heart, what did they say at the rain praying platform, why did His Majesty so sad?

He had a feeling in his heart, and suddenly turned his head to look at Rong Zhen, only to see that the regent had also descended from the platform for praying for rain, staring at this side, utterly helpless in the rain.

What's going on here?You'an heard Chu Heng muttering before, saying that he made a bet, if he could pray for rain, he would ask the regent for clarification.

Could it be that the regent rejected His Majesty?

But if the regent had no intention of showing His Majesty, why did he have such an expression?Seeing him, a eunuch, felt like his heart was about to break.

Perhaps it was clear to the onlookers, You'an felt that the regent clearly loved His Majesty deeply.

After returning to the palace, You'an quickly asked someone to wait for Chu Heng to change his clothes, and asked Baolin to guard outside the palace, while he himself quickly changed his clothes and came to guard again.

Chu Heng soaked in the white marble bath, the water vapor was dense, and the temperature was suitable. Although his body was warm, his heart always felt cold. He repeatedly recalled Rong Zhen's expression and words at that time, felt uncomfortable and wanted to cry, and even didn't want to see him again in the future. To Rong Zhen.

If you don't like it, you don't like it. Why do you say you can't answer? Chu Heng patted the water surface aggrievedly, but his face was splashed with water. He quickly wiped his face, and couldn't help but start thinking wildly. Could it be that the emperor despises his body?

Although his father, queen and queen have been telling him that he is not a different kind, but a gift from heaven, Chu Heng has always tried to believe it, but Chu Heng knows that his body is not perfect, and not everyone will like it. Zhang Lingjun and the others like him , just want him to have a baby, so that he can control himself from a superior position.

Therefore, if Uncle Huang really dislikes his body, then he is helpless.

Chu Heng soaked for too long, You'an couldn't help reminding: "Your Majesty, it's been a quarter of an hour."

"I know." Chu Heng came back to his senses and saw that his body was a little wrinkled. He quickly crawled out, dried his body, put on clean and soft clothes, and called You An. Wipe Chu Heng's hair.

It has been raining outside, patting the eaves like a melody. With this rain, the drought can be alleviated. This year's tax must be halved, and the disaster-stricken state capital can exempt it at its discretion.

But if it is a reduction or exemption, someone has to watch it, otherwise, what if the state government officials are obedient and disobeyed, do not carry out his will, and even bully his people?

When Chu Heng was studying and studying the emperor's strategy, he had heard it all. Even during his father's reign, some officials privately increased taxes, and even forced the people's families to be ruined. So got sick.

Chu Heng remembered that his father had mentioned that the transfer of officials is all assessed by the Ministry of Officials, which is not only extremely inefficient, but also easy to take advantage of loopholes. He can set up ten supervision teams, which he can personally control, and go to various states to make unannounced visits to monitor officials' movements.

Check and balance with the Ministry of Officials, so that officials who are truly pro-government and caring for the people can be selected.

The father was weak before, but he also confirmed some candidates, but many of them are now relying on Rong Zhen...

Chu Heng rubbed his face, tried his best to get Rong Zhen out of his head, and continued to think about it, but suddenly remembered, it seems that this one was also negotiated by his father and Rong Zhen. Rong Zhen was in charge of the monitoring team, but later, his father suddenly placed Rong Zhen under house arrest, and the matter was left alone.

Chu Heng sighed, and realized again that Rong Zhenzhen had invaded all his places.

But I just don't want to invade his heart.

"Your Majesty, are you still thinking about the Regent?" You'an also felt sorry for Chu Heng and decided to say something.

Chu Heng didn't want to admit it, and said stiffly: "I didn't, I was thinking of a big plan."

He didn't lie, he was really thinking about this just now, but his thoughts just jumped to Rong Zhen uncontrollably later.

You'an said: "Your Majesty, this servant feels that the Prince Regent is not interested in you. Just now when we returned to the palace, he kept looking at the imperial chariot, and the servant looked at him with distressed eyes. Your Majesty, do you think the Prince Regent has something to hide? "

Being reminded by You An, Chu Heng couldn't help but feel some hope in his heart, but he was still puzzled: "What kind of secrets can he have? He is the regent king with a high position, second only to me, but even I am very important." Respect him, even call him uncle, who can force him again?"

"The slave is also confused." You'an couldn't figure it out either.

The two looked at each other and sighed again.

After drying his hair, You'an combed his hair into a bun, when Baolin suddenly came to report outside, saying that the regent asked to see him.

Chu Heng's hands trembled slightly, thinking, what else is he here for?

Now Chu Heng didn't want to see him, so he said to Bao Lin, "You went back to him and said that I was tired and was about to take a nap."

Bao Lin went to take orders, and came back a while later to report: "Your Majesty, the regent said that he can wait for His Majesty to wake up."

Chu Heng wanted to tell him to wait, but the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, so Chu Heng couldn't hold back and asked, "Where is he?"

"Just outside the palace, the servant found an umbrella and presented it to the regent, but the regent refused to take it, so the servant asked someone to hold an umbrella for the regent." Baolin reported in detail.

Chu Heng was annoyed, bit his lip, and finally couldn't bear it: "You go and ask him to come in."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After a while, Rong Zhen entered the hall, bringing in a cool feeling, and when he saw Chu Heng, he even bowed and saluted: "I see Your Majesty."

Chu Heng was taken aback, very uncomfortable, and quickly said: "Uncle, you don't need to be too polite. You'an, go and bring a bowl of ginger soup, Baolin, go and get clean clothes for the regent."

He didn't feel sorry for Rong Zhen, but he was afraid that Rong Zhen would fall ill and no one would share the political affairs for him.

Rong Zhen kept looking at Chu Heng, and after hearing Chu Heng's embarrassing concern for him, his eyes became more affectionate. He, Xiao Heng'er, was obviously still angry, but still felt sorry for him.

Three years ago, Rong Zhen thought about what it would be like to open up Xiao Heng'er, it must be soft and sweet, so that he didn't want to be separated from her for a moment, but to be intimately connected.

Now that he finally waited until this day, it was far better than he imagined.

Fearing that Chu Heng would be sad and have trouble with him, Rong Zhen immediately went to the palace to see him after he figured out a solution.

After Rong Zhen drank the ginger soup and changed his clothes, he was in the same room with Chu Heng again. You An and Bao Lin had retreated, and there were only two of them left in the hall.

Burning sweet-scented osmanthus scented sweet and quiet, Chu Heng was uncomfortable being looked at by Rong Zhen, and asked him with a straight face: "Is there something wrong with the emperor's uncle coming to see me?"

Could it be that he figured it out after going back and came to ask him for peace?

"Naturally." Rong Zhen said solemnly: "You succeeded in praying for rain today. In the hearts of the people, you are already a good emperor. Since ancient times, the hearts of the people are the most important. As long as you know people well, are notarized and decisive, and are willing to consider the people, the people will be happy." will support you."

Hearing that Rong Zhen actually mentioned something serious, Chu Heng was a little disappointed, but immediately said seriously: "I also wish to be a Mingjun, not to be immortal, but to be worthy of my heart."

Rong Zhen said: "But if you secure the throne, they will be restless."

"Zhang Jiuyun and the others." Chu Heng got it right.

"That's right." Rong Zhen nodded, "So, they must take actions against you in the near future. I also want to ask you whether they want to drive Zhang Jiuyun and the others out of the court, or use him for their own use."

Chu Heng fell into deep thought.

Zhang Jiuyun has been in the court for so many years, so he is naturally not an idiot. He was also the number one scholar in the past, and he did many beautiful things one after another when he took office.

So Chu Heng was really caught in a tangle for a while.

To be honest, courtiers like Zhang Jiuyun are not uncommon in all dynasties. They are naturally ambitious, like to hold power, and don't want to be restrained by the emperor, but Chu Heng doesn't value power. He hopes that the people can live and work in peace and contentment.

Now that he has been the emperor these days, the biggest feeling he feels is that he is tired, as if he is stepping on a steel wire, he must be cautious and not make mistakes, after all, his every move affects the people of the world.

After Chu Heng thought about the time for a cup of tea, he looked up at Rong Zhen, and his beautiful Yuanxing eyes were firm: "Zhang Jiuyun has the ability to be a prime minister, and I want to take him for my own use."

When he said this, his posture was straight, although his stature was still small, he seemed to have the majesty of an emperor.

But when Rong Zhen saw him, he just wanted to pin him down and make the little Mingjun cry and beg for mercy.

After turning around in his heart, Rong Zhen didn't show it on his face, but his eyes were a little hot: "It's not easy to subdue Zhang Jiuyun, but I have been with him for so many years, and I still know a thing or two. You need to show both kindness and power, and first completely cut off his schemes." matter, calm down again."

"What was planned?" Chu Heng didn't react for a while, and asked, "What did the emperor say?"

"Isn't Zhang Jiuyun planning to send Zhang Lingjun into the palace to accompany him?" Rong Zhen said leisurely, "If His Majesty breaks his hopes, he will lose hope. When he subdues him again, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

When mentioning Zhang Lingjun, Chu Heng remembered his mind-reading skills. He had been deeply troubled by it. Every time he went to court, he was forced to hear that Zhang Lingjun coveted him. So it would be great if this matter could be resolved.

"Uncle Huang, do you have a solution?" Chu Heng couldn't help leaning forward and asked anxiously.

After laying the groundwork step by step, Rong Zhen finally said his goal: "Of course, as long as His Majesty announces that he has chosen a servant, they will naturally have no hope."

Chu Heng's heart tightened, and he subconsciously asked, "Who do I choose?"

"Me." Rong Zhen replied with a chuckle, his eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as the moon in the pines, which made people forget the world.
