Rebirth of the first courtier
Chapter 47
Peeled a peanut and fed it to him.
Emperor Huiming narrowed his eyes, looked at King Jin who stood up, and shouted in a deep voice: "Third brother, are you trying to plot rebellion?"
King Jin walked to the middle with a smile. Qin Yuyi saw that something was wrong, and had already stood in front of the imperial case to block Emperor Huiming and the empress.
"Brother Sanhuang, what are you doing?" Qin Yuyi frowned, staring closely at King Jin's movements.
King Jin let out a low laugh, and said to Qin Yuyi: "Eighth Emperor Brother, I advise you not to get involved, otherwise don't blame Brother Emperor for my brutality."
"Brother Sanhuang, you are rebelling!" Qin Yuyi secretly glanced at the teacher who was still leisurely serving food for Hu Li's brother, and secretly rolled his eyes, his teacher is really calm!
"Little Ba, go aside," Emperor Huiming was pleased, he was optimistic that Xiao Si and Xiao Ba were indeed good, "Little Three, do you really know what you are doing?"
King Jin laughed and looked at Emperor Huiming with sympathy, "Father, you are already old and tired of political affairs, you should leave these matters to your ministers."
"You are quite bold." Emperor Huiming looked at the silence in the hall, even Xiao Qi'ao who had been serving food for Hu Li put down his chopsticks and looked up at Emperor Huiming and King Jin.
"Father was joking. For so many years, Father has liked the eldest brother, the fourth brother, the seventh brother, and the tenth brother, but he has never cared about me." King Jin laughed lowly, "Mother and concubine are obviously One of the four concubines deserves your favor, but why don't you ever look at me?"
Emperor Huiming frowned and looked at King Jin, holding the Queen's slightly trembling hand in his hand to comfort him.
"You are crazy!"
"No, I'm not crazy, I'm just trying to get what I want." King Jin turned his head and looked at the quiet hall, and laughed, "I'm not unreasonable, as long as those who submit to me will be promoted in the future It's not a problem to become a noble."
As soon as the words fell, the ministers became a little commotion, and after about a quarter of an hour, people stood up one after another, expressing their support for King Jin.
Emperor Huiming watched all this coldly, until the rest of the people stopped moving, then Emperor Huiming snorted coldly, "Third brother, do you think you can succeed?"
"Of course, the entire imperial palace is under my control now." King Jin looked at Emperor Huiming looking at himself without any tension, and felt a little uneasy for some reason, "Father, I don't want to hurt you, please write down Give up the imperial decree."
Emperor Huiming sneered and looked at him coldly.King Jin narrowed his eyes, "Since father doesn't want to write it, let my son write it for you. Bring it here!"
An attendant brought out an earlier imperial decree and put it in front of Emperor Huiming, "Father, as long as you affix the seal of the jade seal, you can be your overlord in peace. Otherwise, Father thinks why you are so angry today?" Spirit."
A cold light flashed in Emperor Huiming's eyes, and he yelled in a deep voice, "You really did the poison. How did you start thinking about it?"
"Since when, I don't remember. Father, there is no need to delay, no one will come to save you today." King Jin's attitude has become anxious, he knows that it can't control the palace for a long time, as long as someone If he reacts, then his long-planned forced palace will fail.
"Brother Sanhuang, I still call you Brother Sanhuang, don't force me to do it." Qin Yujia frowned. Although he was not in the palace all the year round, he had no idea about the throne, but the person on the throne was his father. It is impossible for people to force the palace to succeed in front of his eyes.
"Fourth brother, don't force me either." King Jin frowned, signaling for several people to control Prince Rui, but Prince Rui's time in Xianshan Island these years was not in vain.
King Jin sullenly said, "Fourth brother, if you don't want your father to die immediately, you'd better stop."
Prince Rui stopped immediately, and the eyes that looked at King Jin also turned cold.
Emperor Huiming waved his hand, signaling Prince Rui not to waste energy, "Do you think I don't know anything? I still know about my own body. Although I'm sick, my mind is not broken. It's only a matter of time before I find you out. Why do you think you are so successful today, do you think the imperial army is really vulnerable?"
"What do you mean?" King Jin panicked for a moment, but he calmed down when he thought of his backhand, "So what? If you don't take the antidote for your poison, it will definitely be poisoned when it comes to death!"
Emperor Huiming sighed, "Even if I take the antidote, I will just spend the rest of my life lying in bed, and if I die, I will die."
"Royal father!" Prince Rui and the eighth prince looked at Emperor Huiming in astonishment at the same time, and Emperor Huiming glanced at them both with a smile in his eyes, "Third son, you said that I haven't paid attention to you, but what is Xiaoba doing?" Growing up in the environment, how can you compare with you? Now that Xiao Ba has entered the military camp, he is dedicated to strengthening the army, what about you?"
"Oh, needless to say, today we either die together, or I will be passed on to you." King Jin no longer dared to make any guarantees. After so long, the few confidantes who were supposed to appear did not show up, and he was already feeling a little bad. a feeling of.
"Take down King Jin!" Emperor Huiming sighed, even if his life is not long, he is still an emperor!
"What?!" The soldiers who were originally controlling the main hall, holding swords, fell instantly and captured King Jin.
And those ministers who expressed their opinions before, all of them looked ashen, most of them were people who supported King Jin before, and now they are completely defeated.
After a while, there was another noisy sound outside the main hall, and several commanders of the Imperial Army came in carrying a few heads, knelt down under the Highness, "I have lived up to the emperor's order, and have wiped out all the traitors.
"
"Well, reward!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!" Several commanders stood up, put the head on His Highness, and stepped aside.
When King Jin saw those heads, his complexion completely deteriorated. He thought that his arrangements were flawless. He instigated rebellion against the imperial army, took control of the private soldiers raised by the emperor's brother, and even got the support of several adults in the military department.
Why is it?
King Jin still couldn't figure it out until he was imprisoned.After such things happened, the palace banquet could no longer continue. Except for the ministers who took refuge in King Jin who were also sent to the sky prison, everyone else left the palace with a restless heart.
Xiao Qi'ao took Hu Li and Xiao's father with him all the way out of the palace gate and remained silent. When they got to the side of the carriage, Xiao's father patted Hu Li, "It's the first time I brought Xiao Li here, and this kind of thing happened to me, go back Take a good rest."
"Yes, father."
"Thank you, Uncle Shaw."
"Well, let's go back." Father Xiao got into another carriage, Xiao Qi'ao and Hu Li also got into the carriage, and walked towards Xiao's residence together.
"So, how did Your Majesty make it until King Jin wanted to rebel?" Hu Li was extremely curious, and kept silent in the hall, and when he got into the carriage of the Xiao Mansion, he couldn't help it immediately.
Xiao Qi'ao hugged him into his arms, lowered his head and kissed his lips lightly, and rubbed him for a long time before explaining to him.
Among the people around King Jin, there was someone he arranged. Although he was just a rough servant, he could still hear some of the major events that happened in King Jin's mansion.
As for how Emperor Huiming knew, it was naturally Eunuch Fuming who told him the clues little by little.As the chief eunuch in the palace, Eunuch Fuming can also know what's going on in the Imperial Army.
Ever since King Jin began to win over the Imperial Army, Eunuch Fuming got the news under the hint of Xiao Qiao, and he also told Emperor Huiming.Even Emperor Huiming knew that there were ingredients added to the medicine on New Year's Eve, but he needed to be in a good state tonight so that he could handle things tonight.
Hu Li smacked his lips and sighed in shock: "Oh my god, it really is the emperor's family, so cruel to me!"
Xiao Qi'ao touched his head, "It's good that you know the seriousness of these things, so you should avoid dealing with Prince Rui from now on. He is not the Eighth Prince, and the Eighth Prince is my student. He respects his teacher, so he won't How does it treat you as a teacher's wife, but Prince Rui is different!"
Hu Li was blown away by the word "teacher's wife" again, and was thrashing vigorously in Xiao Qi'ao's arms, but guessing that there was a coachman outside, he could only stare at Xiao Qi'ao with a face that was about to smoke. .
The coachman was driving the carriage outside, and he couldn't help but sigh, the young master is so lively!But thinking of Hu Li's age, the coachman also smacked his lips. He is indeed a delicate and precious young master, and he still maintains such a disposition at this age.
Until returning to Xiao's residence, Hu Li was still awkward.Father Xiao looked inexplicably at the two people who were fine when they left the palace, but when they arrived at Xiao's mansion, it seemed like they had a quarrel.
"Is this something awkward?" Father Xiao looked at Hu Li who rushed back to Xiao's mansion angrily, he was quite familiar with this child who was taken care of by his son.On weekdays, when Li Qiao was busy, it was this child who went to accompany his mother.
"It's my son who teased me." Xiao Qi'ao looked at Hu Liqi's snoring, and said with a smile.
"Forget it, I won't ask about the matters between you young people. Go to pay your respects to your grandmother later, and go back to rest. I don't think I can rest for long." Father Xiao said, looking in the direction of the palace, What happened tonight, I don't know what imperial decree His Majesty will issue tomorrow.
Moreover, King Jin said that His Majesty must take the antidote before Zishi, and now he doesn't know how to deal with it.If there is really no cure, I'm afraid they will enter the palace again tonight.
"Yes, my son knows." Xiao Qi'ao nodded, and entered Xiao's mansion with Xiao's father, and had to coax Xiaoli well, how could he be so shy?
Hu Li, who was always shy, went back to the side room where he lived, closed the doors and windows, grabbed the hair of the red halberd angrily, "Brother Xiao is so unrestrained, how can he always, always... Hmph, I'm not reserved anyway!"
Chiji rolled his eyes, Xiao Qiao provoked you, why are you pulling my hair!
"Xiao Li, open the door, I'm going to greet my grandmother." Xiao Qi'ao stood outside the door and knocked on the door. After a while, Hu Li opened the door with a blushing face.Before Xiao Qi'ao said anything, he watched Hu Li ignore him, and walked out in a manly manner.
Xiao Qi'ao grabbed him, hugged him into his arms, and coaxed him for a long time before he calmed down!Well, it's good for Xiaoli to keep like this, Xiaoli who blushes from time to time is so cute!
57. The seven steps of a courtier
In the palace, the emperor's bedroom.
Emperor Huiming's face turned pale and he sat on the dragon bed. The genius doctor was examining Emperor Huiming's pulse. He shook his head after a long time, "After several years, it has become a mixed poison. Although I can postpone it, even if I want to make it It will take several hours to produce a temporary antidote. And His Majesty's poison will kick in at the latest, and if it takes more than a quarter of an hour, it will be powerless to recover."
Emperor Huiming's expression didn't change. He looked at the sons, the empress and Eunuch Fuming, who were surrounded by the bed, and smiled slightly, "I've expected it a long time ago. Xiaosi will stay here. You can go out first."
The queen looked at Emperor Huiming hesitantly, but finally stood up, bowed and retreated.The seventh prince also retreated silently, and went straight to Concubine Ning who was waiting outside, while the eighth prince walked out with the young tenth prince.
"Father, sons and ministers are useless."
"Okay, it doesn't have to be like this." Emperor Huiming waved his hand, a little weakly. Although he was not poisoned yet, the energetic look of Emperor Huiming because of the bowl of medicine at that time was gone. "You haven't been in the palace since you were a child, but I know that you are capable, and now the boss and the third child are not suitable for the throne, so you are the only one left."
"Father!" Prince Rui frowned. He might indeed have some talent in political affairs, but he hadn't been in the imperial city for many years, so he didn't understand most of the affairs and human relations in the imperial city.
Emperor Huiming waved his hand, "I know what you want to say. Originally, I also thought that it would take a long time to teach slowly. Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba can always teach one, but there is no time..."
"Father, do you really think that the Seventh and Eighth Emperors can't take on great responsibilities? At least in my opinion, the Eighth Emperors are very capable in all aspects." Prince Rui half-kneeled in front of the bed, slightly looking up at the emperor .
Emperor Huiming was satisfied with Qin Yuyi's performance in the past two years, but he was not at ease when he thought of how he fell asleep as soon as he read a book.Looking at Emperor Huiming's expression, Prince Rui knew that he had thought about it, but for some reason he gave up.
"Father, you also know that even if I sit on the throne, I will not stay in the imperial city honestly. The eighth brother is still young, so I will stay in the imperial city for two more years to assist him, and the eighth brother If you don't have a foreign family, you are the best candidate."
Emperor Huiming sighed, he didn't know that Xiao Ba had no relatives, even if he inherited the throne, there would be no relatives.However, without relatives, there would be insufficient backing and background, and it would be impossible to suppress those ministers with ulterior motives in the court, which may not be a good thing for the next few years.
"Xiao Ba is still unable to control the court, he... is still a bit close!"
"As far as Ju Erchen knows, because of the Eighth Emperor's trip to the northwest at that time, Xiao Shilang and the Eighth Emperor's brother have a good relationship," Prince Rui paused, and suddenly said in a deep voice, "Moreover, General Weng is also the teacher of the Eighth Emperor. Although General Weng is a royalist, as long as the Eighth Emperor inherits the throne, General Weng will do his best to help the Eighth Emperor, whether it is because he is the new emperor or because he is a student."
Emperor Huiming looked down at the way Prince Rui was talking and nodding, and suddenly felt that the worst part of his life as an emperor was that he had not had many children and had too few heirs, so he didn't know who to pass on the throne to at this time. .
"Forget it, I'll listen to you." Emperor Huiming signaled Eunuch Fuming to get a pen and ink, and wrote two wills with a wave of his hand. One said that the Eighth Prince would inherit the Datong, and the other said Ruoba After the prince inherited the great rule, he was licentious and immoral, and Prince Rui had the right to abolish the emperor and support a new emperor.
Prince Rui also knew that this was Emperor Huiming's biggest setback, and he had a premonition that he would not need this second will. The Eighth Emperor Brother is not what he appears on the surface, but he will not tell his father about this matter. , so as not to feel uneasy about leaving.
The fourth prince came out of the palace and looked at the concubine, the prince and several clan ministers who were waiting outside. How many of these people were really anxious for their father?If the father is really in heaven, how many of these people are crying for the father?
"All three younger brothers, come in with me, Father wants to see you."
"Yes."
The Seventh Prince clenched his fists nervously. His father's poison came too suddenly, so suddenly that his plan with his mother and concubine had not even started, and his father was going to be poisoned.At this time, the succession of the fourth brother is almost a certainty. They are all underage, how can they compete with the fourth brother?
The tenth prince is still young, although he is almost ten years old, but he is innocent by nature, and because he is the youngest son, he is loved and loved, so he has no obsession with the throne.His biological mother was a nobleman, and he knew that the tenth prince had no capital to fight for the throne, so he never instilled the tenth prince with anything about the throne.
Qin Yuyi was probably the most relaxed. He knew from his teacher that the fourth brother would not sit on the throne. The fourth brother has such a temperament. Unless there is no one in the royal family, he will be willing to be bound on the throne.
The four of them knelt in front of the dragon bed at the same time. Emperor Huiming simply said a few words, all of which were wishes for them to do something, and waved them out.Except for Prince Rui, the other three were a little confused.
At the time of Zi, Emperor Huiming became poisoned, and soon the capital was under martial law, all the gates of the city were blocked, and the emperor died.
In Xiao Mansion, Hu Li who had just fallen asleep suddenly opened his eyes, and Xiao Qi'ao had already sat up, "Let's sleep a little longer."
"No, I can't sleep anymore." Hearing the sound of soldiers and horses on the street, Hu Li got dressed together with Xiao Qi'ao.Xiao Qi'ao had to be ready to enter the palace at all times, and Hu Li was lying in front of the window, watching the dragon aura belonging to Emperor Huiming gradually dissipate, while another dragon aura that had been lurking in the palace soared up into the sky, shining golden light.
When Emperor Huiming passed away, everyone thought that Prince Rui had ascended the throne, but it was written in the edict that the Eighth Prince would inherit the throne.This made many people confused. Although the Eighth Prince has gained some sense of presence in the past two years, most of them are in the military camp and have never even participated in government affairs. What did the late emperor think?
However, even if there is any objection, seeing standing behind the eighth prince, no, it is Prince Rui who supported him behind the new emperor, General Weng and the ministers headed by Xiao Shilang, those who had objections swallowed their objections.
Soon, the bell rang in the capital, and the people put on white lanterns in front of their doors, and removed the red Spring Festival couplets that had just been pasted up for the New Year.
After the death of the first emperor, several princes took turns to keep watch. As the new emperor, the eighth prince was naturally the one who spent the most time on watch.Hu Li would carry a lunch box to deliver meals to the new emperor when no one was around, and of course Xiao Qi'ao, who was busy with the new emperor's enthronement because of the death of the first emperor.
As long as the ministers present at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve knew the reason for the death of the first emperor, the common people didn't care much about the death of the first emperor except knowing that there was a new emperor.Anyway, no matter who is the emperor, as long as they live a good life.
The empress, who is now the empress dowager, is sitting in the huge palace, looking at the young new emperor in front of her, "arrange a time for me to die suddenly, I want to stay in King Ning's fief, from now on only King Ning The old princess, there is no queen mother."
Qin Yuyi frowned, and looked at her puzzled, "Why? The eldest brother can live a better life when you are in the palace, isn't the Queen Mother's status not good?"
"Okay, but I don't care about it. I just want to be by my son's side, and I think I can live a better life in my son's fief." After the queen mother finished speaking, she motioned for the maids beside her to send His Majesty out respectfully. Qin Yuyi watched intently. After waiting for the Queen Mother for a while, she turned and left, "As you wish."
The queen mother looked at Qin Yuyi's back and smiled reassuringly.
A teenager who has never received an orthodox education, but can grow up to this level in more than two years, is by no means a good person to deal with.Anyway, the emperor said that the four seasons are like spring in the fief, so let's go there to retire.
Qin Yuyi's enthronement ceremony was held after the late emperor's funeral and entered the mausoleum. Qin Yuyi stood in the apse with his arms outstretched and let the maids dress him in a dragon robe. His hair was only tied with a ribbon, and he waited for a while. Wear a crown of God.
"Are you nervous?" Hu Li lay on the soft couch beside him, watching the maids dress Qin Yuyi and retreated one after another. Hu Li got up from the soft couch, walked over and touched him curiously dragon robe.
"Brother Hu Li, do you know the teacher here?" Ever since Hu Li flew over to bring him food, Qin Yuyi began to speculate all over the sky about Hu Li's identity, and in the end it was Hu Li who let him know. A little down.
It turns out that there are real immortals in the world, and his elder brother Hu Li is one of them.
"Brother Xiao is busy, he is discussing matters with Prince Rui, so I won't go." Hu Li lay down on the soft couch again, the palace is really warm.
"Brother Hu Li, just wait here for a while, and I will send someone over to bring you your favorite chicken. When the teacher is done, I will ask him to come and pick you up." Today the palace is in a mess, if something happens A person with no eyesight, he believes that the teacher will turn the palace upside down tomorrow.
"Okay, I'll take a sneak peek at your enthronement later, and make sure you don't run around." Hearing that the chicken's eyes lit up, Hu Li nodded happily in agreement.
"Where are you going?" Xiao Qi'ao's voice suddenly came from outside the door, and after a while, Xiao Qi'ao in official uniform walked in, "I have seen Your Majesty."
"Teacher, please get up." Qin Yuyi helped Xiao Qi'ao up, and Hu Li ran over, just in time to throw himself into Xiao Qi'ao's arms. Xiao Qi'ao caught him helplessly, and patted him on the back, " Why are you so frizzy?"
Hu Li stuck out his tongue, "It's okay, I won't fall."
Xiao Qi'ao pinched the flesh on his buttocks, the soft touch made Xiao Qi'ao pinch twice more, "Okay, we will be very busy today, please be careful not to wander around in the palace."
"I know, I know." Hu Li waved his hands, and got out of Xiao Qi'ao's embrace, just at the moment when Prince Rui walked in from the outside, "Okay, stop nagging, the enthronement ceremony is about to begin."
Hu Li and the little eunuch were lying on the pillars behind the front hall, watching the people of the clan recite the imperial decree for a long time, Hu Li was about to fall asleep when he saw someone coming to wear the imperial crown for Qin Yuyi superior.
Many ministers immediately knelt on the ground and shouted Long live Your Majesty!
Xiao Qi'ao looked at the young emperor and smiled slightly, "Hurry up!"
The new emperor ascended the throne, three decrees.Firstly, the former emperor was named Emperor Huiming Wenjing, the empress was named Empress Dowager Shengci, and her biological mother, Lin Guiren, was named Empress Dowager Runci; King An, the ten princes are King Xian; the third is to make Xiao Qi'ao the emperor's teacher and serve as the secretary of the household department.
Mr. Li, the former Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, squinted his eyes and was very happy. Finally, he can step down and return to his hometown to provide for the elderly. It is not easy!
58. The eight steps of the courtier
The first two imperial edicts of the new emperor were nothing special, but the third imperial edict shocked everyone, even Prince Rui's current King Rui Xian looked at the new emperor in surprise.
As long as Xiao Qi'ao accepted the imperial edict respectfully, there would be no surprise.
Everyone here slowly came back to their senses, watching Xiao Qi'ao, who was named the Minister of the Household Department at the age of 20, secretly scolded him for being cunning.It turns out that people have long supported the Eighth Prince quietly, but at that time, the Eighth Prince would not be the one to inherit the throne no matter what, Xiao Shilang, no, what did Xiao Shangshu think?
The newly appointed Xiao Shangshu hugged the limp little fox and smiled, which didn't fit the outside world's view of Xiao Shangshu's splendor. No matter what he thought, he won the bet anyway.
In just one month, everyone realized that this young Xiao Shangshu was not young at all in his work, and he was extremely trusted by the emperor.Sometimes King Ruixian can't convince the emperor about things, so he asks Xiao Shangshu to guarantee that there is no problem.
Gradually, the rumors that the young Xiao Shangshu controlled the government began to spread at some point, and the new emperor became Xiao Shangshu's puppet.
Qin Yuyi looked at the information Xiao Xiazi sent over dumbfounded, "These people are really boring, but the teacher made it for outsiders to see. Xiao Xiazi, since these people are so free, why don't you think about the teacher doing it during this time?" How many achievements have you made?"
Xiao Xiazi handed Qin Yuyi a cup of hot tea, "The villain is dull and can't understand the affairs between His Majesty and Master Xiao, but the villain knows that Master Xiao is only thinking about the day when he can accompany the young master to travel around the world. So I don’t believe that Mr. Xiao has evil intentions!”
Qin Yuyi threw the memorial aside, looked at Xiao Xiazi with his head down, and sighed, "Why don't I know? But the teacher can't leave, at least not now!" With the teacher present, he completely controlled the court. The time will be shortened a lot, moreover, the teacher and brother Hu Li are the closest people to him now, so why not watch him leave after getting married.
"So, are many people asking His Majesty to marry him now?" Hu Li looked at Xiao Qi'ao curiously, and asked.
"Well, but judging by His Majesty's performance, it should be someone he likes." Xiao Qi'ao nodded, and put down the memorial that he hoped the emperor would get married as soon as possible.
"Who is it?" Hu Li tilted his head and began to think about possible women, but he really couldn't think of any woman His Majesty had had a different attitude towards.
Xiao Qi'ao rubbed Hu Li's hair, smiled and stuffed a piece of sweet snack into his mouth, "That young lady is still in the northwest for now, you probably haven't seen her before, she is the daughter of Mr. Ji Fengsuji's family."
"Oh... I know her, but I really haven't seen her." Hu Li nodded, chewing on his snacks, speaking a little unclearly, sounding a bit murmuring and nasal.
Xiao Qiao couldn't help laughing, "I think His Majesty has ordered that young lady to return to the imperial city."
Hu Li reached out and took another piece of snack from the plate, put it into his mouth, and nodded casually, "That's great, when His Majesty gets married, I must go to the bridal chamber."
Xiao Qi'ao looked at Hu Li inexplicably, Hu Li was a little embarrassed to be looked at, and laughed dryly, "Brother Xiao, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with making a wedding?"
Xiao Qi'ao suddenly smiled and shook his head, "There's nothing wrong with it." It's just that maybe when I'm high enough, I can come to propose to marry you just like His Majesty's wedding.
Although Xiao Qi'ao said that there was nothing wrong, Hu Li still got a little nervous when he saw Xiao Qi'ao's eyes, and he began to think hard whether he could have a bridal chamber when the emperor got married.
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go to rest." Xiao Qi'ao leaned over and kissed the tip of his nose, Hu Li subconsciously closed his eyes, looking extremely docile.Xiao Qi'ao let out a low laugh, and lightly bit his lips, the corners of his lips that had just eaten snacks were still stained with a little bit of sweetness.
Hu Li opened his eyes, Xiao Qi'ao looked at him with deep eyes full of smiles, Hu Li blushed a little.Xiao Qi'ao stretched out the tip of his tongue and tapped Hu Li's lips, nimbly drilled into his mouth, licked it carefully from top to bottom, entangled his tongue and sucked a few more mouthfuls, until Hu Li Dear dizzy.
His tongue was a little numb from being sucked, and Hu Li's speech was a little slurred, "Brother Xiao, I, I'm going back to sleep." After speaking, he stood up quickly, turned around and ran back to the side room, Xiao Qiao left before Hu Li. Then he laughed happily.
Not yet, when he is so strong that no one dares to comment on the relationship between him and Xiaoli, he will ask His Majesty to give Huli a marriage that he will never forget.
However, now I can let my father and grandmother know something, although they must have guessed in their hearts.Since no one breaks it, let him break it.
Hu Li didn't know that Xiao Qi'ao had already decided to tell the Xiao family about their relationship in just a short while.Is he still using the red halberd as a tree hole?
Chiji rolled his eyes big, don't ask him how a vulture rolls his eyes, it's really unbearable for his master to blush every time he is molested.
Hu Li slapped Chiji's head with a "slap", flattening his beautiful feathers. Chiji raised its wings to cover his head, and looked at Hu Li very angrily.
"You're so stupid, Chiji, you'd better turn around." Hu Li looked at Chiji's appearance, and suddenly laughed so hard that he lay down on the table, tears streaming down his face.
Chiji turned around without love, leaving Chiji with a majestic back.If I don't know how to appreciate the beauty of carvings, can I change owners?
Just when the ministers were trying their best to put their daughters/nieces/nieces and other ladies into His Majesty's harem, Miss Ji, who was recalled by His Majesty, was already under the protection of His Majesty's personal guards Quietly returned to the imperial city.
Seeing that Hu Li was very curious about Miss Ji who was said to be His Majesty's favorite, Xiao Qiao asked Xiao Hongyong to take him to meet this Miss Ji by chance.
"So, teacher, you let brother Hu Li follow Hongyong to meet Miss Ji?" Qin Yuyi looked at his still gentle and elegant teacher in disbelief, and couldn't believe that this was something his teacher would do. Son.
"Since Xiao Li is really curious about His Majesty's favorite person, I can only arrange it this way. Should Xiao Li go to Miss Ji's boudoir to see it in the middle of the night?" Xiao Qiao handed over a stack of divided memorials to the waiter on the side Xiao Xiazi, Xiao Xiazi silently put the memorial on the imperial case, and put away a small note in his right hand.
"Cough, this was handed in by Xia Er yesterday. Teacher, take a look." Qin Yuyi handed an envelope to Xiao Qi'ao, Xiao Qi'ao raised his eyebrows after reading it, "Xia Er went to Anbu?"
"Well, although Xia Er is not from Anbu, I trust him, and I just took over the situation in Anbu, so I don't know that well." Qin Yuyi clearly knew what he was good at. Speaking of which, Emperor Xian had the right opinion of him, he Although he was pretending, compared to Wu, his writing was indeed a bit worse.
In the past, he still liked to solve problems around the corner, but since he practiced physical training, he has become accustomed to solving problems with his fists.It is much simpler and more convenient to deploy this deployment than to waste your brain thinking about it.
"When Your Majesty is getting married, remember to give Xiaoli some time, he is very interested in the bridal chamber." Xiao Qi'ao put the arranged memorials into His Majesty's imperial case by category, and patted his The robe, saluted His Majesty respectfully, and was about to take it off.
"Teacher, is there anything you want?" Just as Xiao Qi'ao walked to the door, Qin Yuyi suddenly raised his head and asked.
"If Your Majesty wants to give your teacher something in return, then promise to marry me and Xiaodi." Xiao Qi'ao turned around and replied with a smile.
Although his teacher was smiling, he could see that his teacher was very serious.Thinking of the relationship between the teacher and Brother Xiaoli, Qin Yuyi stretched and picked up another memorial. It seemed that he didn't have to worry about Brother Xiaoli's relationship.
Not long after, their young Emperor His Majesty dropped a bomb on the court, which was enough for all the respected ministers to blow up the bomb collectively.
His majesty the young emperor is about to marry the daughter of Lord Ji Feng Suji, the prefect of the Northwest, and not as a concubine, but as the queen of the palace.The ministers who tried their best to stuff their daughters/nieces/nieces into the harem were suddenly overwhelmed.
However, considering that their emperor had stayed in the Northwest for a long time, it was extremely normal to meet that Miss Ji.
"It's really decided?" Qin Yujia crossed her legs and leaned on the chair like a prince at all. Qin Yuyi nodded and handed the imperial decree written in his hand to Xiao Xiazi who was respectful. Take out the jade seal and stamp it with a big seal.
"Forget it, I can't control you anyway." Qin Yujia stood up lazily, "Since Xiao Qi'ao will help you deal with the government affairs, I will go out for a trip. If you encounter any problems that cannot be solved, just let me know." Write to me, Xiaoli can find out where I am."
"Brother Huang, you..." Qin Yuyi frowned and looked at Qin Yujia in embarrassment.
"What kind of expression is this? Don't worry, I won't compete with you for the throne." Qin Yujia tapped the soft sword wrapped around his waist, indicating to Qin Yuyi that his dream is to be a ranger.
"No, Brother Huang, what I mean is that you don't want to think about brother Xiaoli. After the teacher is really angry, maybe even I can't do anything to him." Qin Yuyi still remembers that he once saw Xia Er gesture with the teacher Throughout the whole process, Xia Er didn't even touch the corner of the teacher's clothes.
"Huh?!" Qin Yujia blinked inexplicably, looked at the worried Qin Yuyi dumbfounded, stepped forward and knocked on his forehead rebelliously, "Worry, let's go!"
Qin Yuyi slightly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled smugly, Xiao Xiazi lowered his head slightly, his young new master was a bit lively!
The front hall of the Xiao Mansion was silent, and the somewhat dull atmosphere made the maids and servants who were serving them all lower their heads, fearing that a loud breathing would break the strange atmosphere.
"Qi'ao, don't be confused." Xiao's father pursed his lips, his dry throat was slightly itchy, "If you are just joking, then it's fine, if it's true, have you thought about your official career? "
"Father, I'm very serious." Xiao Qi'ao refused to budge, and the old lady remained silent for the first time. For the first time, there was an obvious stubbornness in Xiao Qi'ao's eyes, "I will never let go of Xiao Li. , Your Majesty has already promised to give us a marriage, this matter cannot be changed."
59. Nine steps of a courtier
"Qi'ao, are you sure?" The old lady fiddled with the prayer beads in her hand without raising her head, Xiao Qi'ao nodded, "Yes, I thought grandma already knew."
"Since that's the case, it's up to you. I only have one request, that you have offspring." The old lady's eyes didn't have the cloudiness of an old man, Xiao Qiao shook her head, "Grandmother, unless Xiaoli can conceive an heir one day, I won't There may be descendants."
The old lady stared fixedly at Xiao Qi'ao, she dared to say that she was the one who knew his grandson best among all the Xiao family members, but seeing the persistence in Xiao Qi'ao's eyes and the coldness behind her persistence, she suddenly felt that she I don't know much about his grandson.
She thought he wanted to be an extremely human minister, otherwise why would she have asked for manpower from him to build the Hanshan Pavilion and help the Eighth Prince to the throne?
Emperor Huiming narrowed his eyes, looked at King Jin who stood up, and shouted in a deep voice: "Third brother, are you trying to plot rebellion?"
King Jin walked to the middle with a smile. Qin Yuyi saw that something was wrong, and had already stood in front of the imperial case to block Emperor Huiming and the empress.
"Brother Sanhuang, what are you doing?" Qin Yuyi frowned, staring closely at King Jin's movements.
King Jin let out a low laugh, and said to Qin Yuyi: "Eighth Emperor Brother, I advise you not to get involved, otherwise don't blame Brother Emperor for my brutality."
"Brother Sanhuang, you are rebelling!" Qin Yuyi secretly glanced at the teacher who was still leisurely serving food for Hu Li's brother, and secretly rolled his eyes, his teacher is really calm!
"Little Ba, go aside," Emperor Huiming was pleased, he was optimistic that Xiao Si and Xiao Ba were indeed good, "Little Three, do you really know what you are doing?"
King Jin laughed and looked at Emperor Huiming with sympathy, "Father, you are already old and tired of political affairs, you should leave these matters to your ministers."
"You are quite bold." Emperor Huiming looked at the silence in the hall, even Xiao Qi'ao who had been serving food for Hu Li put down his chopsticks and looked up at Emperor Huiming and King Jin.
"Father was joking. For so many years, Father has liked the eldest brother, the fourth brother, the seventh brother, and the tenth brother, but he has never cared about me." King Jin laughed lowly, "Mother and concubine are obviously One of the four concubines deserves your favor, but why don't you ever look at me?"
Emperor Huiming frowned and looked at King Jin, holding the Queen's slightly trembling hand in his hand to comfort him.
"You are crazy!"
"No, I'm not crazy, I'm just trying to get what I want." King Jin turned his head and looked at the quiet hall, and laughed, "I'm not unreasonable, as long as those who submit to me will be promoted in the future It's not a problem to become a noble."
As soon as the words fell, the ministers became a little commotion, and after about a quarter of an hour, people stood up one after another, expressing their support for King Jin.
Emperor Huiming watched all this coldly, until the rest of the people stopped moving, then Emperor Huiming snorted coldly, "Third brother, do you think you can succeed?"
"Of course, the entire imperial palace is under my control now." King Jin looked at Emperor Huiming looking at himself without any tension, and felt a little uneasy for some reason, "Father, I don't want to hurt you, please write down Give up the imperial decree."
Emperor Huiming sneered and looked at him coldly.King Jin narrowed his eyes, "Since father doesn't want to write it, let my son write it for you. Bring it here!"
An attendant brought out an earlier imperial decree and put it in front of Emperor Huiming, "Father, as long as you affix the seal of the jade seal, you can be your overlord in peace. Otherwise, Father thinks why you are so angry today?" Spirit."
A cold light flashed in Emperor Huiming's eyes, and he yelled in a deep voice, "You really did the poison. How did you start thinking about it?"
"Since when, I don't remember. Father, there is no need to delay, no one will come to save you today." King Jin's attitude has become anxious, he knows that it can't control the palace for a long time, as long as someone If he reacts, then his long-planned forced palace will fail.
"Brother Sanhuang, I still call you Brother Sanhuang, don't force me to do it." Qin Yujia frowned. Although he was not in the palace all the year round, he had no idea about the throne, but the person on the throne was his father. It is impossible for people to force the palace to succeed in front of his eyes.
"Fourth brother, don't force me either." King Jin frowned, signaling for several people to control Prince Rui, but Prince Rui's time in Xianshan Island these years was not in vain.
King Jin sullenly said, "Fourth brother, if you don't want your father to die immediately, you'd better stop."
Prince Rui stopped immediately, and the eyes that looked at King Jin also turned cold.
Emperor Huiming waved his hand, signaling Prince Rui not to waste energy, "Do you think I don't know anything? I still know about my own body. Although I'm sick, my mind is not broken. It's only a matter of time before I find you out. Why do you think you are so successful today, do you think the imperial army is really vulnerable?"
"What do you mean?" King Jin panicked for a moment, but he calmed down when he thought of his backhand, "So what? If you don't take the antidote for your poison, it will definitely be poisoned when it comes to death!"
Emperor Huiming sighed, "Even if I take the antidote, I will just spend the rest of my life lying in bed, and if I die, I will die."
"Royal father!" Prince Rui and the eighth prince looked at Emperor Huiming in astonishment at the same time, and Emperor Huiming glanced at them both with a smile in his eyes, "Third son, you said that I haven't paid attention to you, but what is Xiaoba doing?" Growing up in the environment, how can you compare with you? Now that Xiao Ba has entered the military camp, he is dedicated to strengthening the army, what about you?"
"Oh, needless to say, today we either die together, or I will be passed on to you." King Jin no longer dared to make any guarantees. After so long, the few confidantes who were supposed to appear did not show up, and he was already feeling a little bad. a feeling of.
"Take down King Jin!" Emperor Huiming sighed, even if his life is not long, he is still an emperor!
"What?!" The soldiers who were originally controlling the main hall, holding swords, fell instantly and captured King Jin.
And those ministers who expressed their opinions before, all of them looked ashen, most of them were people who supported King Jin before, and now they are completely defeated.
After a while, there was another noisy sound outside the main hall, and several commanders of the Imperial Army came in carrying a few heads, knelt down under the Highness, "I have lived up to the emperor's order, and have wiped out all the traitors.
"
"Well, reward!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!" Several commanders stood up, put the head on His Highness, and stepped aside.
When King Jin saw those heads, his complexion completely deteriorated. He thought that his arrangements were flawless. He instigated rebellion against the imperial army, took control of the private soldiers raised by the emperor's brother, and even got the support of several adults in the military department.
Why is it?
King Jin still couldn't figure it out until he was imprisoned.After such things happened, the palace banquet could no longer continue. Except for the ministers who took refuge in King Jin who were also sent to the sky prison, everyone else left the palace with a restless heart.
Xiao Qi'ao took Hu Li and Xiao's father with him all the way out of the palace gate and remained silent. When they got to the side of the carriage, Xiao's father patted Hu Li, "It's the first time I brought Xiao Li here, and this kind of thing happened to me, go back Take a good rest."
"Yes, father."
"Thank you, Uncle Shaw."
"Well, let's go back." Father Xiao got into another carriage, Xiao Qi'ao and Hu Li also got into the carriage, and walked towards Xiao's residence together.
"So, how did Your Majesty make it until King Jin wanted to rebel?" Hu Li was extremely curious, and kept silent in the hall, and when he got into the carriage of the Xiao Mansion, he couldn't help it immediately.
Xiao Qi'ao hugged him into his arms, lowered his head and kissed his lips lightly, and rubbed him for a long time before explaining to him.
Among the people around King Jin, there was someone he arranged. Although he was just a rough servant, he could still hear some of the major events that happened in King Jin's mansion.
As for how Emperor Huiming knew, it was naturally Eunuch Fuming who told him the clues little by little.As the chief eunuch in the palace, Eunuch Fuming can also know what's going on in the Imperial Army.
Ever since King Jin began to win over the Imperial Army, Eunuch Fuming got the news under the hint of Xiao Qiao, and he also told Emperor Huiming.Even Emperor Huiming knew that there were ingredients added to the medicine on New Year's Eve, but he needed to be in a good state tonight so that he could handle things tonight.
Hu Li smacked his lips and sighed in shock: "Oh my god, it really is the emperor's family, so cruel to me!"
Xiao Qi'ao touched his head, "It's good that you know the seriousness of these things, so you should avoid dealing with Prince Rui from now on. He is not the Eighth Prince, and the Eighth Prince is my student. He respects his teacher, so he won't How does it treat you as a teacher's wife, but Prince Rui is different!"
Hu Li was blown away by the word "teacher's wife" again, and was thrashing vigorously in Xiao Qi'ao's arms, but guessing that there was a coachman outside, he could only stare at Xiao Qi'ao with a face that was about to smoke. .
The coachman was driving the carriage outside, and he couldn't help but sigh, the young master is so lively!But thinking of Hu Li's age, the coachman also smacked his lips. He is indeed a delicate and precious young master, and he still maintains such a disposition at this age.
Until returning to Xiao's residence, Hu Li was still awkward.Father Xiao looked inexplicably at the two people who were fine when they left the palace, but when they arrived at Xiao's mansion, it seemed like they had a quarrel.
"Is this something awkward?" Father Xiao looked at Hu Li who rushed back to Xiao's mansion angrily, he was quite familiar with this child who was taken care of by his son.On weekdays, when Li Qiao was busy, it was this child who went to accompany his mother.
"It's my son who teased me." Xiao Qi'ao looked at Hu Liqi's snoring, and said with a smile.
"Forget it, I won't ask about the matters between you young people. Go to pay your respects to your grandmother later, and go back to rest. I don't think I can rest for long." Father Xiao said, looking in the direction of the palace, What happened tonight, I don't know what imperial decree His Majesty will issue tomorrow.
Moreover, King Jin said that His Majesty must take the antidote before Zishi, and now he doesn't know how to deal with it.If there is really no cure, I'm afraid they will enter the palace again tonight.
"Yes, my son knows." Xiao Qi'ao nodded, and entered Xiao's mansion with Xiao's father, and had to coax Xiaoli well, how could he be so shy?
Hu Li, who was always shy, went back to the side room where he lived, closed the doors and windows, grabbed the hair of the red halberd angrily, "Brother Xiao is so unrestrained, how can he always, always... Hmph, I'm not reserved anyway!"
Chiji rolled his eyes, Xiao Qiao provoked you, why are you pulling my hair!
"Xiao Li, open the door, I'm going to greet my grandmother." Xiao Qi'ao stood outside the door and knocked on the door. After a while, Hu Li opened the door with a blushing face.Before Xiao Qi'ao said anything, he watched Hu Li ignore him, and walked out in a manly manner.
Xiao Qi'ao grabbed him, hugged him into his arms, and coaxed him for a long time before he calmed down!Well, it's good for Xiaoli to keep like this, Xiaoli who blushes from time to time is so cute!
57. The seven steps of a courtier
In the palace, the emperor's bedroom.
Emperor Huiming's face turned pale and he sat on the dragon bed. The genius doctor was examining Emperor Huiming's pulse. He shook his head after a long time, "After several years, it has become a mixed poison. Although I can postpone it, even if I want to make it It will take several hours to produce a temporary antidote. And His Majesty's poison will kick in at the latest, and if it takes more than a quarter of an hour, it will be powerless to recover."
Emperor Huiming's expression didn't change. He looked at the sons, the empress and Eunuch Fuming, who were surrounded by the bed, and smiled slightly, "I've expected it a long time ago. Xiaosi will stay here. You can go out first."
The queen looked at Emperor Huiming hesitantly, but finally stood up, bowed and retreated.The seventh prince also retreated silently, and went straight to Concubine Ning who was waiting outside, while the eighth prince walked out with the young tenth prince.
"Father, sons and ministers are useless."
"Okay, it doesn't have to be like this." Emperor Huiming waved his hand, a little weakly. Although he was not poisoned yet, the energetic look of Emperor Huiming because of the bowl of medicine at that time was gone. "You haven't been in the palace since you were a child, but I know that you are capable, and now the boss and the third child are not suitable for the throne, so you are the only one left."
"Father!" Prince Rui frowned. He might indeed have some talent in political affairs, but he hadn't been in the imperial city for many years, so he didn't understand most of the affairs and human relations in the imperial city.
Emperor Huiming waved his hand, "I know what you want to say. Originally, I also thought that it would take a long time to teach slowly. Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba can always teach one, but there is no time..."
"Father, do you really think that the Seventh and Eighth Emperors can't take on great responsibilities? At least in my opinion, the Eighth Emperors are very capable in all aspects." Prince Rui half-kneeled in front of the bed, slightly looking up at the emperor .
Emperor Huiming was satisfied with Qin Yuyi's performance in the past two years, but he was not at ease when he thought of how he fell asleep as soon as he read a book.Looking at Emperor Huiming's expression, Prince Rui knew that he had thought about it, but for some reason he gave up.
"Father, you also know that even if I sit on the throne, I will not stay in the imperial city honestly. The eighth brother is still young, so I will stay in the imperial city for two more years to assist him, and the eighth brother If you don't have a foreign family, you are the best candidate."
Emperor Huiming sighed, he didn't know that Xiao Ba had no relatives, even if he inherited the throne, there would be no relatives.However, without relatives, there would be insufficient backing and background, and it would be impossible to suppress those ministers with ulterior motives in the court, which may not be a good thing for the next few years.
"Xiao Ba is still unable to control the court, he... is still a bit close!"
"As far as Ju Erchen knows, because of the Eighth Emperor's trip to the northwest at that time, Xiao Shilang and the Eighth Emperor's brother have a good relationship," Prince Rui paused, and suddenly said in a deep voice, "Moreover, General Weng is also the teacher of the Eighth Emperor. Although General Weng is a royalist, as long as the Eighth Emperor inherits the throne, General Weng will do his best to help the Eighth Emperor, whether it is because he is the new emperor or because he is a student."
Emperor Huiming looked down at the way Prince Rui was talking and nodding, and suddenly felt that the worst part of his life as an emperor was that he had not had many children and had too few heirs, so he didn't know who to pass on the throne to at this time. .
"Forget it, I'll listen to you." Emperor Huiming signaled Eunuch Fuming to get a pen and ink, and wrote two wills with a wave of his hand. One said that the Eighth Prince would inherit the Datong, and the other said Ruoba After the prince inherited the great rule, he was licentious and immoral, and Prince Rui had the right to abolish the emperor and support a new emperor.
Prince Rui also knew that this was Emperor Huiming's biggest setback, and he had a premonition that he would not need this second will. The Eighth Emperor Brother is not what he appears on the surface, but he will not tell his father about this matter. , so as not to feel uneasy about leaving.
The fourth prince came out of the palace and looked at the concubine, the prince and several clan ministers who were waiting outside. How many of these people were really anxious for their father?If the father is really in heaven, how many of these people are crying for the father?
"All three younger brothers, come in with me, Father wants to see you."
"Yes."
The Seventh Prince clenched his fists nervously. His father's poison came too suddenly, so suddenly that his plan with his mother and concubine had not even started, and his father was going to be poisoned.At this time, the succession of the fourth brother is almost a certainty. They are all underage, how can they compete with the fourth brother?
The tenth prince is still young, although he is almost ten years old, but he is innocent by nature, and because he is the youngest son, he is loved and loved, so he has no obsession with the throne.His biological mother was a nobleman, and he knew that the tenth prince had no capital to fight for the throne, so he never instilled the tenth prince with anything about the throne.
Qin Yuyi was probably the most relaxed. He knew from his teacher that the fourth brother would not sit on the throne. The fourth brother has such a temperament. Unless there is no one in the royal family, he will be willing to be bound on the throne.
The four of them knelt in front of the dragon bed at the same time. Emperor Huiming simply said a few words, all of which were wishes for them to do something, and waved them out.Except for Prince Rui, the other three were a little confused.
At the time of Zi, Emperor Huiming became poisoned, and soon the capital was under martial law, all the gates of the city were blocked, and the emperor died.
In Xiao Mansion, Hu Li who had just fallen asleep suddenly opened his eyes, and Xiao Qi'ao had already sat up, "Let's sleep a little longer."
"No, I can't sleep anymore." Hearing the sound of soldiers and horses on the street, Hu Li got dressed together with Xiao Qi'ao.Xiao Qi'ao had to be ready to enter the palace at all times, and Hu Li was lying in front of the window, watching the dragon aura belonging to Emperor Huiming gradually dissipate, while another dragon aura that had been lurking in the palace soared up into the sky, shining golden light.
When Emperor Huiming passed away, everyone thought that Prince Rui had ascended the throne, but it was written in the edict that the Eighth Prince would inherit the throne.This made many people confused. Although the Eighth Prince has gained some sense of presence in the past two years, most of them are in the military camp and have never even participated in government affairs. What did the late emperor think?
However, even if there is any objection, seeing standing behind the eighth prince, no, it is Prince Rui who supported him behind the new emperor, General Weng and the ministers headed by Xiao Shilang, those who had objections swallowed their objections.
Soon, the bell rang in the capital, and the people put on white lanterns in front of their doors, and removed the red Spring Festival couplets that had just been pasted up for the New Year.
After the death of the first emperor, several princes took turns to keep watch. As the new emperor, the eighth prince was naturally the one who spent the most time on watch.Hu Li would carry a lunch box to deliver meals to the new emperor when no one was around, and of course Xiao Qi'ao, who was busy with the new emperor's enthronement because of the death of the first emperor.
As long as the ministers present at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve knew the reason for the death of the first emperor, the common people didn't care much about the death of the first emperor except knowing that there was a new emperor.Anyway, no matter who is the emperor, as long as they live a good life.
The empress, who is now the empress dowager, is sitting in the huge palace, looking at the young new emperor in front of her, "arrange a time for me to die suddenly, I want to stay in King Ning's fief, from now on only King Ning The old princess, there is no queen mother."
Qin Yuyi frowned, and looked at her puzzled, "Why? The eldest brother can live a better life when you are in the palace, isn't the Queen Mother's status not good?"
"Okay, but I don't care about it. I just want to be by my son's side, and I think I can live a better life in my son's fief." After the queen mother finished speaking, she motioned for the maids beside her to send His Majesty out respectfully. Qin Yuyi watched intently. After waiting for the Queen Mother for a while, she turned and left, "As you wish."
The queen mother looked at Qin Yuyi's back and smiled reassuringly.
A teenager who has never received an orthodox education, but can grow up to this level in more than two years, is by no means a good person to deal with.Anyway, the emperor said that the four seasons are like spring in the fief, so let's go there to retire.
Qin Yuyi's enthronement ceremony was held after the late emperor's funeral and entered the mausoleum. Qin Yuyi stood in the apse with his arms outstretched and let the maids dress him in a dragon robe. His hair was only tied with a ribbon, and he waited for a while. Wear a crown of God.
"Are you nervous?" Hu Li lay on the soft couch beside him, watching the maids dress Qin Yuyi and retreated one after another. Hu Li got up from the soft couch, walked over and touched him curiously dragon robe.
"Brother Hu Li, do you know the teacher here?" Ever since Hu Li flew over to bring him food, Qin Yuyi began to speculate all over the sky about Hu Li's identity, and in the end it was Hu Li who let him know. A little down.
It turns out that there are real immortals in the world, and his elder brother Hu Li is one of them.
"Brother Xiao is busy, he is discussing matters with Prince Rui, so I won't go." Hu Li lay down on the soft couch again, the palace is really warm.
"Brother Hu Li, just wait here for a while, and I will send someone over to bring you your favorite chicken. When the teacher is done, I will ask him to come and pick you up." Today the palace is in a mess, if something happens A person with no eyesight, he believes that the teacher will turn the palace upside down tomorrow.
"Okay, I'll take a sneak peek at your enthronement later, and make sure you don't run around." Hearing that the chicken's eyes lit up, Hu Li nodded happily in agreement.
"Where are you going?" Xiao Qi'ao's voice suddenly came from outside the door, and after a while, Xiao Qi'ao in official uniform walked in, "I have seen Your Majesty."
"Teacher, please get up." Qin Yuyi helped Xiao Qi'ao up, and Hu Li ran over, just in time to throw himself into Xiao Qi'ao's arms. Xiao Qi'ao caught him helplessly, and patted him on the back, " Why are you so frizzy?"
Hu Li stuck out his tongue, "It's okay, I won't fall."
Xiao Qi'ao pinched the flesh on his buttocks, the soft touch made Xiao Qi'ao pinch twice more, "Okay, we will be very busy today, please be careful not to wander around in the palace."
"I know, I know." Hu Li waved his hands, and got out of Xiao Qi'ao's embrace, just at the moment when Prince Rui walked in from the outside, "Okay, stop nagging, the enthronement ceremony is about to begin."
Hu Li and the little eunuch were lying on the pillars behind the front hall, watching the people of the clan recite the imperial decree for a long time, Hu Li was about to fall asleep when he saw someone coming to wear the imperial crown for Qin Yuyi superior.
Many ministers immediately knelt on the ground and shouted Long live Your Majesty!
Xiao Qi'ao looked at the young emperor and smiled slightly, "Hurry up!"
The new emperor ascended the throne, three decrees.Firstly, the former emperor was named Emperor Huiming Wenjing, the empress was named Empress Dowager Shengci, and her biological mother, Lin Guiren, was named Empress Dowager Runci; King An, the ten princes are King Xian; the third is to make Xiao Qi'ao the emperor's teacher and serve as the secretary of the household department.
Mr. Li, the former Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, squinted his eyes and was very happy. Finally, he can step down and return to his hometown to provide for the elderly. It is not easy!
58. The eight steps of the courtier
The first two imperial edicts of the new emperor were nothing special, but the third imperial edict shocked everyone, even Prince Rui's current King Rui Xian looked at the new emperor in surprise.
As long as Xiao Qi'ao accepted the imperial edict respectfully, there would be no surprise.
Everyone here slowly came back to their senses, watching Xiao Qi'ao, who was named the Minister of the Household Department at the age of 20, secretly scolded him for being cunning.It turns out that people have long supported the Eighth Prince quietly, but at that time, the Eighth Prince would not be the one to inherit the throne no matter what, Xiao Shilang, no, what did Xiao Shangshu think?
The newly appointed Xiao Shangshu hugged the limp little fox and smiled, which didn't fit the outside world's view of Xiao Shangshu's splendor. No matter what he thought, he won the bet anyway.
In just one month, everyone realized that this young Xiao Shangshu was not young at all in his work, and he was extremely trusted by the emperor.Sometimes King Ruixian can't convince the emperor about things, so he asks Xiao Shangshu to guarantee that there is no problem.
Gradually, the rumors that the young Xiao Shangshu controlled the government began to spread at some point, and the new emperor became Xiao Shangshu's puppet.
Qin Yuyi looked at the information Xiao Xiazi sent over dumbfounded, "These people are really boring, but the teacher made it for outsiders to see. Xiao Xiazi, since these people are so free, why don't you think about the teacher doing it during this time?" How many achievements have you made?"
Xiao Xiazi handed Qin Yuyi a cup of hot tea, "The villain is dull and can't understand the affairs between His Majesty and Master Xiao, but the villain knows that Master Xiao is only thinking about the day when he can accompany the young master to travel around the world. So I don’t believe that Mr. Xiao has evil intentions!”
Qin Yuyi threw the memorial aside, looked at Xiao Xiazi with his head down, and sighed, "Why don't I know? But the teacher can't leave, at least not now!" With the teacher present, he completely controlled the court. The time will be shortened a lot, moreover, the teacher and brother Hu Li are the closest people to him now, so why not watch him leave after getting married.
"So, are many people asking His Majesty to marry him now?" Hu Li looked at Xiao Qi'ao curiously, and asked.
"Well, but judging by His Majesty's performance, it should be someone he likes." Xiao Qi'ao nodded, and put down the memorial that he hoped the emperor would get married as soon as possible.
"Who is it?" Hu Li tilted his head and began to think about possible women, but he really couldn't think of any woman His Majesty had had a different attitude towards.
Xiao Qi'ao rubbed Hu Li's hair, smiled and stuffed a piece of sweet snack into his mouth, "That young lady is still in the northwest for now, you probably haven't seen her before, she is the daughter of Mr. Ji Fengsuji's family."
"Oh... I know her, but I really haven't seen her." Hu Li nodded, chewing on his snacks, speaking a little unclearly, sounding a bit murmuring and nasal.
Xiao Qiao couldn't help laughing, "I think His Majesty has ordered that young lady to return to the imperial city."
Hu Li reached out and took another piece of snack from the plate, put it into his mouth, and nodded casually, "That's great, when His Majesty gets married, I must go to the bridal chamber."
Xiao Qi'ao looked at Hu Li inexplicably, Hu Li was a little embarrassed to be looked at, and laughed dryly, "Brother Xiao, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with making a wedding?"
Xiao Qi'ao suddenly smiled and shook his head, "There's nothing wrong with it." It's just that maybe when I'm high enough, I can come to propose to marry you just like His Majesty's wedding.
Although Xiao Qi'ao said that there was nothing wrong, Hu Li still got a little nervous when he saw Xiao Qi'ao's eyes, and he began to think hard whether he could have a bridal chamber when the emperor got married.
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go to rest." Xiao Qi'ao leaned over and kissed the tip of his nose, Hu Li subconsciously closed his eyes, looking extremely docile.Xiao Qi'ao let out a low laugh, and lightly bit his lips, the corners of his lips that had just eaten snacks were still stained with a little bit of sweetness.
Hu Li opened his eyes, Xiao Qi'ao looked at him with deep eyes full of smiles, Hu Li blushed a little.Xiao Qi'ao stretched out the tip of his tongue and tapped Hu Li's lips, nimbly drilled into his mouth, licked it carefully from top to bottom, entangled his tongue and sucked a few more mouthfuls, until Hu Li Dear dizzy.
His tongue was a little numb from being sucked, and Hu Li's speech was a little slurred, "Brother Xiao, I, I'm going back to sleep." After speaking, he stood up quickly, turned around and ran back to the side room, Xiao Qiao left before Hu Li. Then he laughed happily.
Not yet, when he is so strong that no one dares to comment on the relationship between him and Xiaoli, he will ask His Majesty to give Huli a marriage that he will never forget.
However, now I can let my father and grandmother know something, although they must have guessed in their hearts.Since no one breaks it, let him break it.
Hu Li didn't know that Xiao Qi'ao had already decided to tell the Xiao family about their relationship in just a short while.Is he still using the red halberd as a tree hole?
Chiji rolled his eyes big, don't ask him how a vulture rolls his eyes, it's really unbearable for his master to blush every time he is molested.
Hu Li slapped Chiji's head with a "slap", flattening his beautiful feathers. Chiji raised its wings to cover his head, and looked at Hu Li very angrily.
"You're so stupid, Chiji, you'd better turn around." Hu Li looked at Chiji's appearance, and suddenly laughed so hard that he lay down on the table, tears streaming down his face.
Chiji turned around without love, leaving Chiji with a majestic back.If I don't know how to appreciate the beauty of carvings, can I change owners?
Just when the ministers were trying their best to put their daughters/nieces/nieces and other ladies into His Majesty's harem, Miss Ji, who was recalled by His Majesty, was already under the protection of His Majesty's personal guards Quietly returned to the imperial city.
Seeing that Hu Li was very curious about Miss Ji who was said to be His Majesty's favorite, Xiao Qiao asked Xiao Hongyong to take him to meet this Miss Ji by chance.
"So, teacher, you let brother Hu Li follow Hongyong to meet Miss Ji?" Qin Yuyi looked at his still gentle and elegant teacher in disbelief, and couldn't believe that this was something his teacher would do. Son.
"Since Xiao Li is really curious about His Majesty's favorite person, I can only arrange it this way. Should Xiao Li go to Miss Ji's boudoir to see it in the middle of the night?" Xiao Qiao handed over a stack of divided memorials to the waiter on the side Xiao Xiazi, Xiao Xiazi silently put the memorial on the imperial case, and put away a small note in his right hand.
"Cough, this was handed in by Xia Er yesterday. Teacher, take a look." Qin Yuyi handed an envelope to Xiao Qi'ao, Xiao Qi'ao raised his eyebrows after reading it, "Xia Er went to Anbu?"
"Well, although Xia Er is not from Anbu, I trust him, and I just took over the situation in Anbu, so I don't know that well." Qin Yuyi clearly knew what he was good at. Speaking of which, Emperor Xian had the right opinion of him, he Although he was pretending, compared to Wu, his writing was indeed a bit worse.
In the past, he still liked to solve problems around the corner, but since he practiced physical training, he has become accustomed to solving problems with his fists.It is much simpler and more convenient to deploy this deployment than to waste your brain thinking about it.
"When Your Majesty is getting married, remember to give Xiaoli some time, he is very interested in the bridal chamber." Xiao Qi'ao put the arranged memorials into His Majesty's imperial case by category, and patted his The robe, saluted His Majesty respectfully, and was about to take it off.
"Teacher, is there anything you want?" Just as Xiao Qi'ao walked to the door, Qin Yuyi suddenly raised his head and asked.
"If Your Majesty wants to give your teacher something in return, then promise to marry me and Xiaodi." Xiao Qi'ao turned around and replied with a smile.
Although his teacher was smiling, he could see that his teacher was very serious.Thinking of the relationship between the teacher and Brother Xiaoli, Qin Yuyi stretched and picked up another memorial. It seemed that he didn't have to worry about Brother Xiaoli's relationship.
Not long after, their young Emperor His Majesty dropped a bomb on the court, which was enough for all the respected ministers to blow up the bomb collectively.
His majesty the young emperor is about to marry the daughter of Lord Ji Feng Suji, the prefect of the Northwest, and not as a concubine, but as the queen of the palace.The ministers who tried their best to stuff their daughters/nieces/nieces into the harem were suddenly overwhelmed.
However, considering that their emperor had stayed in the Northwest for a long time, it was extremely normal to meet that Miss Ji.
"It's really decided?" Qin Yujia crossed her legs and leaned on the chair like a prince at all. Qin Yuyi nodded and handed the imperial decree written in his hand to Xiao Xiazi who was respectful. Take out the jade seal and stamp it with a big seal.
"Forget it, I can't control you anyway." Qin Yujia stood up lazily, "Since Xiao Qi'ao will help you deal with the government affairs, I will go out for a trip. If you encounter any problems that cannot be solved, just let me know." Write to me, Xiaoli can find out where I am."
"Brother Huang, you..." Qin Yuyi frowned and looked at Qin Yujia in embarrassment.
"What kind of expression is this? Don't worry, I won't compete with you for the throne." Qin Yujia tapped the soft sword wrapped around his waist, indicating to Qin Yuyi that his dream is to be a ranger.
"No, Brother Huang, what I mean is that you don't want to think about brother Xiaoli. After the teacher is really angry, maybe even I can't do anything to him." Qin Yuyi still remembers that he once saw Xia Er gesture with the teacher Throughout the whole process, Xia Er didn't even touch the corner of the teacher's clothes.
"Huh?!" Qin Yujia blinked inexplicably, looked at the worried Qin Yuyi dumbfounded, stepped forward and knocked on his forehead rebelliously, "Worry, let's go!"
Qin Yuyi slightly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled smugly, Xiao Xiazi lowered his head slightly, his young new master was a bit lively!
The front hall of the Xiao Mansion was silent, and the somewhat dull atmosphere made the maids and servants who were serving them all lower their heads, fearing that a loud breathing would break the strange atmosphere.
"Qi'ao, don't be confused." Xiao's father pursed his lips, his dry throat was slightly itchy, "If you are just joking, then it's fine, if it's true, have you thought about your official career? "
"Father, I'm very serious." Xiao Qi'ao refused to budge, and the old lady remained silent for the first time. For the first time, there was an obvious stubbornness in Xiao Qi'ao's eyes, "I will never let go of Xiao Li. , Your Majesty has already promised to give us a marriage, this matter cannot be changed."
59. Nine steps of a courtier
"Qi'ao, are you sure?" The old lady fiddled with the prayer beads in her hand without raising her head, Xiao Qi'ao nodded, "Yes, I thought grandma already knew."
"Since that's the case, it's up to you. I only have one request, that you have offspring." The old lady's eyes didn't have the cloudiness of an old man, Xiao Qiao shook her head, "Grandmother, unless Xiaoli can conceive an heir one day, I won't There may be descendants."
The old lady stared fixedly at Xiao Qi'ao, she dared to say that she was the one who knew his grandson best among all the Xiao family members, but seeing the persistence in Xiao Qi'ao's eyes and the coldness behind her persistence, she suddenly felt that she I don't know much about his grandson.
She thought he wanted to be an extremely human minister, otherwise why would she have asked for manpower from him to build the Hanshan Pavilion and help the Eighth Prince to the throne?
