My lord, your plan is too obvious

It's a good time, so don't continue to provoke him.

After Nan Zhi's incident passed, the Ministry of Industry began to be very busy casting new ironware, and the original appointment with Lin Lang to go to the teahouse was postponed again and again.On the contrary, the Ministry of Rites has returned to its usual leisurely look.

It was also when she was free, and since then, doing exercises in the garden with Si Nian in the morning has become a must for Ruohua every day.

Although it can't be compared with the previous life, after exercising every day, I feel that my foundation has improved a lot, at least I won't be out of breath after running a few steps.

Si Nian's guidance is mostly to the point, and every time in a fight, he will use actual actions to tell Ruohua some evasion or attack skills.Ruohua is also working hard to get used to this much thinner figure than in the previous life. The strength and impact will not be able to be trained for a while, but the dexterity is much better.It is much more convenient in dodging.

The time seems to pass very quickly when I am free, and the summer heat has passed in a blink of an eye.

This day is a holiday, and because there is no need to go to court, the time for practicing in the morning is longer than usual.

An hour later, Ruohua's sweat soaked her clothes.On the other hand, Si Nian didn't appear to be tortured by this sweltering season except for the sweat beads on his forehead.Ruohua tugged at the neckline, trying to cool herself off.He secretly complained in his heart, is that person made of ice cubes? He didn't respond to such heat.

Si Nian stood under the shade of a tree to adjust his breath, turned around and saw that Ruohua opened his collarbone, revealing the collarbone that had been covered in the past, probably because of the heat from the sun, his skin was slightly red.I can't help but feel that today seems to be extraordinarily hot and dry.

"My lord, I'm going back to my room to change my clothes." Ruohua felt uncomfortable being wrapped in heat.

"Change your clothes and go to the main hall."

"Is there something to do today?" On such a hot day, moving casually will make you sweat.After all, it was a holiday. Ruohua wanted to make some freezing point in the small kitchen, and then he stayed in the room.

"It's not official business," Si Nian saw that Ruohua didn't want to move, but he still said, "Come out with me."

Ruohua pursed her lips and responded.Some reluctantly went back to the room to change clothes.

After changing his clothes and walking to the main hall, Si Nian was already sitting there.On the contrary, he also changed into a suit of clothes, which was not as solemn as usual, without any embroidery patterns, just simple cloth art.The hair was not tied up with a crown, but was casually tied with a hair tie and loosened.There is only one sachet on the waist.And Si Nian was playing with a Huang Yuchan in his hand, rubbing the wings of Yuchan with his clean fingers.

Without the rigid look of the past, it is a bit more casual and elegant.Ruohua looked a few more times in surprise.I always feel that looking at it this way, Si Nian looks much more relaxed and relaxed.

Seeing Ruohua coming, Si Nian put down the jade cicada he was playing with:

"Let's go, let's go shopping in the street today."

Ruohua is even more surprised?Did he hear correctly, Si Nian actually wants to go to the street with him?

"What?" Seeing Ruohua's incredible expression, Si Nian stood in front of him, "You don't want to be with me?"

Ruohua swallowed his doubts, and said respectfully: "My lord invites me, how dare I refuse."

"Well," Si Nian continued to walk out, "Then let's go."

Ruohua quickly chased after Si Nian.But my heart was a little hairy: what happened today?

The two of them didn't use a carriage or sedan chair, they just walked on the street.Ruohua kept sneaking glances at Sinian at a little behind Sinian's side.But nothing out of the ordinary could be seen.

Si Nian also sensed if it was a sight drifting over, but he didn't say anything, just walked straight forward.

In the end, the two stopped at the door of a tailor shop, and Si Nian stepped over the threshold and walked in.

When the shopkeeper saw the two of them, he hurried up to greet them: "My lord, what do you want to buy?"

"Choose a set of summer clothes for him." Si Nian pointed in Ruohua's direction.

"Huh?" Ruohua was very surprised that Si Nian came to the clothes shop, he didn't really want to buy clothes for himself, did he?

"You have thick clothes for practice, and if you order someone to do it today, it will be too late tomorrow." Si Nian explained.

"Then it will make Wang... Mr. Lin spend money."

"It's not a waste of money," Si Nian walked towards the hanging ready-made clothes, touched the fabric with his hands, and then asked the store, "Can he wear this size?"

"Yes, yes, sir, you have a good eye." The shopkeeper quickly said with a flattering smile, "This suit is just right for this young master."

"Well, that's the set," said Si Nian and took out his wallet, "How much money?"

"Three taels." Seeing such a straightforward customer, the shopkeeper laughed so hard that his mouth was almost behind his ears.

"Wrap it up." Si Nian gave the money to the shopkeeper.

And Ruohua, who stood aside and watched the whole process: ... didn't you buy me clothes, why didn't you ask for my opinion? !This time it's actually aqua green!Why buy these colors that children only wear!

However, Ruohua was just thinking about these words... After all, a prince actually went to the street to buy clothes for himself, which is enough to make people feel grateful, isn't it.

Si Nian took the wrapped clothes and held them in his hand.Walking past Ruohua who was still struggling mentally, he put his head on his head and patted him forward:

"Let's go."

Ruohua: ...One day I will grow taller than you.

Ruo Hua originally thought that he would return home directly, but when he left the tailor shop, a carriage stopped in front of the two of them.

Si Nian looked at the guard driving the car:

"Where is he today?"

"Yes," the guard saluted, "My master invites you to go with Mr. Xiang."

"I see," Si Nian stepped on the board and got into the carriage, then leaned over and stretched out his hand and said to Ruohua, "Come up."

Although Ruohua was curious, he didn't ask too much.These should be the prince's people, but where should we take them?Judging by Si Nian's reaction, it seems like he goes there often.

The carriage was heading west, Ruohua looked out the window—there were many people on the street, the shops facing the street were full of business, and caravans with goods could be seen at the entrance of the market.Although beggars can be seen along the way, but judging from the figure of those people, it is not like they have endured hunger for a long time and cannot survive.Moreover, in this dynasty, it seems that the precepts for women are much less, and you can see young girls laughing and laughing in the street everywhere.During Xia Yuan's time, if a woman talked too much or did not behave properly, she would attract other people's attention.

Hmm...Speaking of which, it seems that besides Odan, he has never been in contact with other women.There are mostly guards in the palace, but there are very few maidservants.Ruohua has lived two lifetimes, and has never experienced much love between a man and a woman. Thinking of this, she can't help but feel a little bit at a loss.So he just half-lyed on the window and looked at the girls passing by outside, but looking left and right didn't seem to suit him.

Since the carriage was relatively small, Sinian and Ruohua sat side by side.Si Nian felt the people next to him moving around, so he turned his head to look.Just in time to see Ruohua sticking his head out of the window and looking out.Still frowning from time to time.Si Nian looked out following Ruohua's gaze, and saw several women walking by.Without knowing why, I blurted out:

"They're not for you."

Ruohua, who was concentrating on looking out the window, didn't realize it, and turned her head to look at Sinian with a puzzled face.

Si Young coughed and said nothing.He also turned his head to look at the window on the side near him.

Ruohua asked:

"My lord, what doesn't suit me?"

Seeing that he couldn't prevaricate, Si Nian said, "You are still young, and it will take a few years before the relationship between men and women."

Ruohua gave a little "oh" inexplicably, thinking in his heart, I'm just looking at it casually, it's not allowed.This prince is very lenient.

☆, private house

The carriage entered a small alley. Although this alley is next to the main road, since there is a tall jujube tree at the entrance of the alley, and there are shops with few customers on both sides, it is difficult to notice that there is another alley.

The carriage stopped at a stone step deep in the alley, and Si Nian and Ruohua got out of the carriage.

There is no stone carving of Fanghuyuan at the entrance, and although there are high eaves on the main entrance of ordinary houses, if we say that this is the main entrance, it is really small, and there is no plaque on the door.

The guard driving the car stepped forward and knocked the copper ring on the door three times, then took a step back.After a while, the door opened. Ming turned half his body sideways, looked at the people who came, opened the door wider, and said to Si Nian and Ruohua:

"The young master is waiting for you inside."

Stepping into the gate, the scenery inside is surprising.The entourage looks like a narrow house from the outside, but it is very spacious inside.And the overall layout is different from other houses.After entering, there is a well-proportioned courtyard directly, and on the right is a long corridor, and there seems to be no main hall.The courtyard is separated by rockery, and the scene inside cannot be seen at a glance.

There are carved wooden windows on the corridor, through which you can faintly see a yard on the other side, but due to the lush vegetation, you can only see mottled green leaves.But if it is said that the house is a courtyard for viewing, it is not entirely true.

Ruohua followed Jiming and walked in along the long corridor. There are several wing rooms on the side of the long corridor, and the door of one of them is open. Guqin and some paintings and calligraphy.

Walking to the innermost part, Jiming opened a narrow door and stepped in.Ruohua followed closely behind, this is the other side of the house, there seems to be only one side room, with some vegetation planted around, but the middle is very empty, unlike the exquisite courtyard outside.

When Ming walked into the room with Sinian and Ruohua, Qi Guang was sitting on the couch, propping his chin with one hand, and took a bite of the pastry with the other.Seeing them coming in, she seemed a little flustered, quickly chewed a few mouthfuls, and swallowed what was in her mouth.

Jiming frowned: "Young master, you said you had to prepare the cake for Mr. Xiang, so I sent someone to deliver it."

Qi Guang still has half a piece of rakuh left in his hand, and it doesn't matter if he put it down, it doesn't seem very good to eat it.So he just looked at Jiming and said:

"Then why don't you eat it?"

"Master..." Ji Ming said seriously.

"Look, uncle." Qi Guang turned his head to look at Si Nian, "I will be controlled even if I eat pastries. This day-to-day life is really boring."

"Brother Huang has scolded you many times because of your love of sweets." Si Nian said without defending.

"Uncle, you and Jiming are getting more and more similar." Qi Guang put the half of the cake into his mouth, looked at Ruohua after swallowing it, and said, "Aren't they boring?"

Ruohua, who was named, saluted and said:

"His Royal Highness still..."

Before Ruohua could finish speaking, Qi Guang stood up and said: "I really shouldn't let you stay in my uncle's house, they just let it go. If you are like this, I'm afraid there will be no one to talk to." .”

Si Nian walked in front of them: "Uncle, you should go to the courtyard for two competitions with Jiming. If you are here, Ruohua will always be like this." Then he turned his head and said to Ruohua, "Today Let's play chess together, I won't lose this time."

After speaking, he dragged Ruohua to the low couch, and the chessboard was already set up on the table.Qi Guang waved his sleeves and sat down, Ruohua saluted and sat opposite him.

Ji Ming looked at Qi Guang who had already picked up the chess pieces, and then said to Si Nian:

"My lord, please."

Qi Guang saw that Ming had taken Sinian away, smiled slightly, and focused on the chessboard in front of him again.

The sunspot that Qi Guang took was put down first.Then when Ruohua was thinking about how to make a move, he pushed the stack of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes that had been eaten in front of Ruohua.

"If you talk about sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, Mingtaiyuan in the capital makes the best ones."

After Ruohua put down the chess pieces, he picked up one and put it in his mouth.It is not the time when sweet-scented osmanthus is the most fragrant. This sweet-scented osmanthus cake does not smell like a flower, but it has a special taste in your mouth.The aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus seems to be concentrated, and it only bursts out when biting into the mouth, and even the nasal cavity is filled with the fragrance of flowers.Although the pulled cake is soft and waxy, it is not very sticky to the teeth. It just sticks to the lips and teeth, and it goes off after a few licks with the tongue.Moreover, milk is added in it, the mellowness of the milky fragrance is intertwined with the floral fragrance, which not only covers up the faint smell and fishy smell of the milk, but also gives the floral fragrance a little thick feeling.It's really different.

"Do you know why this osmanthus cake is made so differently?" Qi Guang asked again, seemingly casually.

"It should be because of the addition of milk." Ruohua reached out and took another piece, it was indeed delicious.

"Since you can taste the addition of milk, why don't other restaurants follow suit?"

"This..." Ruohua couldn't think of it for a while. Although he loves eating very much, he has never understood how it is done.

"This is because everyone can tell that milk is added, but no one can tell that there are other things added in it. The addition of this stuff can complement the taste of milk and sweet-scented osmanthus without overpowering the taste. Naturally It's delicious; but if it's not added properly..." As he said, the sunspots dropped by Qi Guang matched the previous ones, surrounding Ruohua's white ones.

Qi Guang clamped the surrounded Baizi with his index finger and middle finger, then shook his fingers, and looked at Ruohua with a smile.

Ruohua, who was still chewing, was stunned for a moment, and thought about it carefully.He still couldn't explain what was added to it, but he guessed a thing or two about what Qi Guang said.

In recent days, the power of the six ministries has become more and more dispersed, and more and more books have to be handed over to the emperor's trusted eunuchs before they are handed over to the emperor.Although the emperor did not explicitly give the eunuchs any real power, but in the long run, the power of the eunuchs will gradually expand to the government sooner or later.

However, for the people outside the court, all they know is the emperor and ministers, so they will only be satisfied or dissatisfied with the emperor and ministers who are officials.As for how the court operates, who implemented the bill, and who made the remonstrance, it is impossible for the common people to know.

And because the common people do not have access to the emperor on a daily basis, the most intuitive ones are the ministers in the court, down to the parents and officials of the common people, and up to the six ministries.

Ruohua is in the Ministry of Rites, so she naturally feels that the Sixth Ministry does not have much real power, and is aware of its disadvantages.However, even though he was the emperor in the last life, he was willing to delegate power to the lower levels. That was because no one in the six departments competed with him for the throne.But Chu Ping is different. A young prince is in charge of the Ministry of Rites, the prince is in charge of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households, and King Mao is in charge of the Ministry of War.Several important departments are under the control of the royal family, but if the power is great, it is easy to lift the emperor up.

Ruohua had thought about these things before, but he didn't expect the prince to mention them to him today.In those words, the milk should be compared to the emperor, the sweet-scented osmanthus to the six parts, and those things that don't know what they are to the eunuch.This metaphor is quite appropriate.

But it just so happens that he originally wanted to find an opportunity to take advantage of this matter, but now he doesn't need to deliberately create an opportunity.

Ruohua dropped a child, picked up another piece of cake, and took a small bite:

"If you can't taste the hidden things, then add some visible things to change the taste. I think that if you marinate the osmanthus fragrans and sprinkle them directly on top, it will be unique."

"Small sweet-scented osmanthus?" Qi Guang paused slightly while holding the chess piece.

"En," Ruohua took another bite, "Sprinkle the chopped osmanthus on top, so that anyone can see it. This kind of osmanthus cake is more worthy of its name."

"Even so, how will the taste change?"

"The current taste is pretty good, isn't it? Why are you in a hurry to change?" Ruohua dropped another son, "It's just that adding this layer of osmanthus can remind people that this is osmanthus cake. If the taste of osmanthus is covered up, This pastry also failed. What do you think, Your Highness the Crown Prince?"

Qi Guang held the chess piece and fell into deep thought.And Ruohua looked outside.

Not far away, Si Nian can be seen competing with Ji Ming in the open space.Although I always knew that Si Nian's martial arts should be very good, but seeing it with my own eyes was another matter.The two fought with bare hands, and even from a hundred meters away, they could feel the oppressive aura of the two.

Si Nian's boxing style and pace are very standard, but there are almost no loopholes in his victory.Every position is very solid, and the defense and offense are also seamlessly coordinated, hardly giving the opponent a chance to make a surprise attack.

It is obvious that although Ruohua didn't have much contact with him, Ruohua originally thought that as the prince's personal bodyguard, coupled with his usually silent personality, it should be a very rigid offensive style of play. After all, the duty of a bodyguard is to protect the master. When in danger, it is used as a meat shield.But Ji Ming's moves are very changeable and casual, as if he can make any move whenever he thinks of it, and he evades very deftly, not at all the style of a guard.

The two of them fought hundreds of moves, and it was almost a tie.And the two of them didn't seem to feel tired, and they still had the same calm expression on their faces.Only the faint whistling of the wind could be heard.

"How many broken osmanthus flowers do you think is suitable?" Qi Guang thought for a long time, and finally placed a chess piece on the chessboard.

"Half of the sweet-scented osmanthus in the pulled cake is the most suitable."

"How to choose?"

"Naturally, the choice is based on merit, and" Ruohua dropped a son heavily, "it must be one with the existing sweet-scented osmanthus."

Ruohua took the last piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the plate, then pointed to the chessboard with a smile and said:

"This time, I won again."

Qi Guang looked at the chessboard, shook his head with a smile and said:

"I'm still not good at chess. I always lose to you."

"The crown prince is planning a big event," Ruohua swallowed, "and I'm just playing with some pawns."

Ruohua took out the trapped sunspot and pushed it in front of Qi Guang: "After all, the prince decides whether to go or not to go in this round."

Qi Guang took the chess piece and rubbed it in his palm, then raised his head and said to Ruohua:

"With chess in hand, there is no reason why you can't just watch it."

After speaking, he pressed the chess piece on the chessboard again.

Ruohua looked at the prince's movements, and curled his lips: I did win this round.

The author has something to say: Aww~~Nanjing has come to the season of sweet-scented osmanthus again

The sweet-scented osmanthus cake is really delicious ヾ(≧?≦*)ゝ

☆, ghost sword

"Speaking of which, there is still such a place in the capital." Ruohua looked around, this house is really a quiet place in the middle of the bustle, and it is very hidden. It is completely invisible from the road outside, and even the main entrance is open. so secluded.

Qi Guang chuckled: "I was also curious for a long time when I first came here."

"You didn't build this yourself?" Ruohua originally thought that this kind of house must have been specially built by Qi Guang to do something or see some people's whereabouts hidden. Who would build such a house without a problem.

"I never said that this house is mine." Qi Guang reached for a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, only to find that it was gone, feeling a little pity.

"Then..." To build such a house in such a good location in the capital, and the courtyard layout inside is also very exquisite, is not a small expense.Could it be the private residence of an adult under the crown prince?

Before Ruohua had time to ask in detail, Ji Ming and Si Nian happened to come back at this time.

"Uncle, your skills are still as good as before." Qi Guang said to Sinian who came.

"Jiming is much more stable." Si Nian went straight into the room, took two glasses of water, and handed one to Ji Ming and said.

Qi Guang changed his sitting position, propped his chin with his hands, and looked at Jiming with his head tilted: "I think it looks better as it did before."

"So what do you think looks good?" Si Nian put down his glass, "It's too ostentatious for him to stay by your side like that."

"Uncle, you are still so serious, I won't let you eat today, so as not to be read by you all the time."

Si Nian looked at the sun, and it was already noon, so he simply said, "Then Ruohua and I will go first."

"Qihuaying is in the outer courtyard. You should go out in a carriage, and I won't see you off." Qi Guang stretched his arms and yawned.

Ruohua also got up and saluted.So he and Sinian went out.

Qi Guang lazily leaned on the low cushion:

"Staying in this yard is the most comfortable."

Ming came over and sat down where Ruohua was sitting before, and while putting away the chess pieces on the chessboard, he said:

"If you like it, I'll give it to you."

Qi Guang smiled lightly, and pushed all the chess pieces towards Ji Ming: "What's the difference between now and not mine?"

Jiming paused for a moment, did not speak, and continued to collect the chess pieces.

"However, as far as the house is concerned, I still prefer the one with the hot spring that winter."

"That's for me to use when I get married." Ji Ming put away the last chess piece and looked up at Qi Guang.

"You may have to wait for many years." Qi Guang slightly staggered his eyes.

"I can afford to wait."

Qi Guang sighed: "If it wasn't for me, you would still be the Haiyunya Ghost Sword admired by thousands of people. Why should you be confined to this court."

"I have never regretted it."

"I know, it's just..."

Jiming got up, walked in front of Qi Guang, and gently took his head into his arms.

"If you are not here, as far as I am concerned, everywhere is just a prison."

Qi Guang rested his head on Ji Ming's chest, and said softly:

"Mingqing..."

After Ming's body froze, he hugged Qi Guang even tighter.

A gust of wind blows, and the flowers in the yard fall to the ground.Qi Guang raised his head slightly and looked out.In a trance, it seemed that I saw the flowering of the crabapple tree in Haiyunya in spring.

Then he took a deep breath:

"Siming, help me get the pen and ink."

"What are you going to write?"

"It's time to start the reform of the six departments."

On the other side, Ruohua and Sinian left in a carriage and walked to the main road.Si Nian buckled the car board.

"My lord, what are your orders?" Qihua slowed down the carriage.

"Go to Xiantang Pavilion."

"Yes."

Then the carriage turned around and continued to drive forward.

The two soon stood at the door of Xiantang Pavilion, which was actually a three-story restaurant.Ruohua has been here for so long, but it is really the first time to eat in a restaurant of this dynasty.Before I came out, I just went to the teahouse to eat some snacks.

This Xiantang Pavilion is on the way from Tiantian Wangfu to the imperial city, Ruohua has seen it many times, and has been coveted for a long time, but because he has never had a chance, he never thought that Si Nian would bring him here for lunch today.

Si Nian looked down at the undisguised joy on Ruohua's face, but didn't say much, and strode in directly.It was time for lunch, and the restaurant was almost full of people. Every small table in the lobby was full of people, and there were still some people waiting outside the door.

Seeing Si Nian, Xiao Er hurriedly greeted him warmly:

"Prince Yan, you haven't come for a long time."

"Is there a private room upstairs?"

"Yes, yes," Xiao Er hurriedly led them upstairs, "Your room has been reserved for you."

Ruohua couldn't help but sigh with emotion at this moment, the imperial power class is so convenient...

The restaurant is inevitably noisy, but it is quite different when you go to the third floor.Outside each private room stood a maid with her head bowed. When Ruohua walked into the private room, Xiao Er closed the door, and there was hardly a single noise from outside in the room.

"The food in this restaurant is very special." Si young sat down at the table familiarly, "Some dishes are better than those prepared by the royal chef in the palace."

"Is this store opened by a dignitary?" A private room like this on the third floor was specially set up, and it looked like it was used for business discussions.And Xiaoer opened his mouth to call Sinianyan King. According to Sinian's temperament, if he was outside, he would usually use an alias.

"This shop was opened by King Qing."

"Prince Qing?" King Qing is Si Nian's elder brother, he rarely goes to court on weekdays, and he is a veritable idle prince.Could it be that he actually does some commercial transactions in private?

"To celebrate the full moon of the son, King Qing opened this restaurant." Si Nian explained a few words more rarely.

"The prince is really well-loved." Ruohua chuckled.The royal family has always been ruthless, but it would be happiness to have a father who dotes on him and does not fight for the throne.Thinking of this, Ruohua felt a little jealous of that little prince.

"King Qing only has one son, but he is smart, and he is worthy of such favor." Si Nian couldn't help chuckling when he thought of his little nephew who looked like an adult.

Ruohua was stunned when he saw that Si Nian was actually smiling.Could it be that this pure and ascetic prince actually likes children?He could remember in his last life, when his younger brother pestered him when he was two or three years old, and even pulled out a bunch of his hair, which made him always have a shadow over the children.Ruohua looked at Sinian with some weird eyes.

Seeing Ruohua's eyes, Si Nian didn't say much.Call the maid in:

"Let's serve a few special dishes from your side. It's just two of you, and you don't need too many." After finishing speaking, Si Nian turned to look at Ruohua, "Do you have anything you want to eat?"

"Your Majesty, just arrange it." Although Ruohua had a lot of suggestions, he was too embarrassed to be too presumptuous.

"Then serve more fried food." Si Nian said to the maid.

Ruohua almost showed star eyes, at this moment he felt that Si Nian is really great QWQ

Si Nian looked at Ruohua's eyes from the corner of his eye, and smiled secretly.This man is so frank at this time.

"What did the prince chat with you today?" Si Nian asked while pouring a cup of tea before the dishes were served.

Ruohua thought for a while, today the prince obviously wanted to get rid of Sinian before he talked about the Six Parts to himself in a veiled way, and he has his own plan about this matter, so let's not talk about it for now.Anyway, Si Nian will know soon, so he avoids the important thing and says:

"I asked how Mingtaiyuan's osmanthus cake is made, and the prince told me about it."

"You actually care about how the cake is made?" Si Nian raised his eyebrows, "I thought you only thought about how to eat it."

Ruohua: "..." Are you teasing me?This prince can still make fun of people? !

"Then do you know how to do it?" Sinian found it interesting to see Ruohua's stunned look.

Seeing Si Nian's teasing expression, Ruohua pouted: "The prince didn't tell me."

Si Nian took a sip of tea, chuckled, and said nothing.But I thought in my heart: the prince deliberately dismissed him and what Ruohua said was definitely not this, what was related to him was nothing more than the matter of the Ministry of Rites, but why did he deliberately avoid himself?Is there something else that touches on something broader?Broader things...wouldn't be...

Thinking of this, Si Young frowned, and looked up at Ruohua who was looking at the door of the private room expectantly, waiting for food.He couldn't help but feel a sinking in his heart—why did Qi Guang have to involve Ruohua in this vortex?

The author has something to say: Mint likes Qi Guang and Ji Ming more and more, this is right QWQ

Well... Anyway, the identities of the little cuties should be almost guessed

And... I want to kiss my little angel Q(づ￣3￣)づ! !

As for why the prince Qing's son was mentioned...

kindness……

(Anyway, there will definitely be his role in the future

☆, persuasion

At this time, Qi Guang, who was still in the house, put down his brush, carefully read what he had just written from beginning to end, and then said to Ji, who was sitting aside and was wiping the edge of his sword:

"Siming, let's take a look."

After Ming put down his sword and came over, he took the paper with ink that was still wet, quickly scanned it with his eagle eyes, then his expression changed involuntarily, and he said in a low voice:

"Is this what Xiang Ruohua said?"

"I guess..." Qi Guang leaned back, almost half-lying on the couch, and yawned.

"Are you going to show this to the emperor?" Zhi Ming almost got angry.

"Tomorrow when I go to court, I will present the papers and then give advice to my father."

"You..." Jiming clenched his hands tightly, the paper was deformed, "Don't tell me, do you think the emperor will accept this method?"

"Father will naturally not accept it." Qi Guang sat up, stretched his arms, opened Jiming's tightly clenched hands, and took the paper, "In addition to the six departments, there are three provinces, and the three provinces will be in charge of the court as a whole. In addition, the officials of the three provinces are from the six ministries. This is to add power to the three provinces. Although this method is indeed ingenious, and it can be said that it suppressed the eunuchs in one fell swoop. But for the father who wants to reduce the six ministries and hold power alone Of course not."

"then you……"

"I don't have a good solution right now. If this situation continues, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to control in the future. Ruohua's method hits the nail on the head and hits the point of the current dispersion of power. It is the best time to propose it. Only The core problem is exposed at once, so people can see it more clearly, right?" Qi Guang changed his sitting position and continued, "Besides, the purpose of this time is not to change anything, but to make the people in the court and the emperor aware That's all. Although the father doesn't want the six departments to be separated from him by the three provinces that hold great power, but if he thinks about it carefully, he will understand that he is now separated from the six departments by a group of eunuchs. In the long run, what does this have to do with the establishment of the three provinces? the difference?"

"But the emperor won't figure it out so quickly... If you say it, he will definitely vent his anger on you in the court tomorrow."

"It's not the first time," Qi Guang smiled lightly, "I'm not afraid of that."

"Why don't you let Xiang Ruohua talk about it? This was his idea."

Qi Guang shook his head:

"I said it, and at most he would be scolded. If he said it... I'm afraid he won't be able to stay in this court."

"Why do you protect him like this." Ji Ming snorted, "He won't be used by you."

"Siming..." Qi Guang elongated his tone, "If I'm just a courtier and drawn into the vortex of party disputes, would you have any scruples for me?"

"Of course." Ji Ming replied without thinking about it.

Qi Guang narrowed his eyes slightly, and raised the corners of his mouth: "I believe that my uncle will make the same choice as you."

"King Yan?" Jiming thought for a while, "You mean King Yan is right..."

Qi Guang smiled lightly:

"Siming, you are still so slow. But it was hard for me back then..."

Since Ming was a little embarrassed, he quickly interrupted Qi Guang:

"At the beginning, I just didn't want to understand."

Qi Guang looked at the face of the person opposite, his face turned slightly red, and his heart warmed up.Although he had experienced some twists and turns at the beginning, this person finally stood by his side.The fate of the two of them may be doomed in the dark.

I still remember the first time I saw Ji Ming, he was dressed in black and stood with a sword behind his back.He obviously had a serious expression, but for some reason, Qi Guang felt that this was a gentle person.At that time, Qi Guang had just left the palace and was still in a dangerous situation, so he insisted on pestering Zhiming, thinking that this person could protect him.

At first, Mingming was very impatient and wanted to get rid of him several times.But Qi Guang followed him unrelentingly, especially after he was rescued by Ji Ming when he was about to die, Qi Guang felt that following him was definitely right.

At the beginning, Qi Guang just wanted to use his knowledge to protect himself, but when did he start? This unsmiling person appeared frequently in his dreams, always with a gentle appearance.If Qi Guang had been more decisive at that time, he would have left just like that; or if he had made up his mind to drive him away, maybe nothing would happen again after that.

He is still the prince, and Ji Ming is still Ghost Sword.

But there are not so many ifs, after all, Qi Guang will never give up the kind of person he wants, and Ji Ming has already been moved.

That's enough for them to be together now.As for the future... let's talk about it later.In the quagmire of the imperial city, the road ahead is really hard to see.

Jiming is still unwilling to take this step by Qi Guang: "Didn't King Yan always support you? Why do you still do this?"

"Although my uncle has been helping me, it's because he wants to help me, but what if one day he finally gets tired of being here and doesn't want to get involved in these things anymore? I always have a thread to hold him." Qi Guang sighed softly, "If you want to open it, who would like to stay in it..."
