Willing to be hired by Jiangshan

injury recuperation

In the middle of the week, Lin Rongchen finally came back after spending a long time talking about household chores with Eunuch Zhou.His face wasn't very good-looking, but he wasn't too ugly either. Eunuch Zhou heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at his posture just now, he really felt like the sky was falling.

Zhou Zhongdao: "What happened just now? Seeing the emperor and General Zhao walking hurriedly, I feel anxious..."

Eunuch Zhou remained silent.Anxious and still dragging him to chat about family affairs?From the old mother's [-]th birthday to the little chickens at home, if the emperor doesn't come back tonight, dare he talk until tomorrow morning, without repeating the same thing.It is said that the Minister of the Ministry of Finance Zhouzhong is a talker, and today he has learned the lesson.

Lin Rongchen said: "A small matter has been dealt with. I called you here because I want to ask you about choosing a concubine."

"What does the emperor want to ask?" Zhou Zhong was puzzled, why did the emperor care so much about choosing a concubine this time?Didn't concubine Na always lose her temper when she mentioned it before?

Lin Rongchen said: "I want to take a look at the rosters of women of the right age submitted by various places."

"This..." Zhou Zhong was in a dilemma.Although Lin Rongchen once issued an imperial decree when choosing concubines, all women from ordinary families were not allowed to participate in the selection. This would save thousands of people, but the number of primary candidates could be eight hundred if not one thousand. Does he want to see them one by one? Pass?

Lin Rongchen's attitude was very peaceful, "What? Is there a problem?"

"The problem... no. There are quite a lot of rosters. I am afraid that the emperor will not be able to see them. Besides, the re-election will have to wait until after the autumn hunting. The portraits of these women have not yet been sent. Are you sure the emperor wants to read the roster first?"

It stands to reason that Yunchu's normal concubine selection process is to submit the list of candidates for the election from all over the country, but in order to prevent collusion between court officials and the harem, generally speaking, most of the daughters of clan princes and court ministers are not accepted.It's good for Lin Rongchen to pick these people for election, is it because he is afraid that the world will not be chaotic?

It was May at this time. According to the usual practice in previous years, the selection of concubines had to avoid the great heat, so he originally set the time after the autumn hunting.

Lin Rongchen pondered for a moment, and tapped his finger on the desk, "Let them be sure to send the portraits before the autumn hunting. This time, I will pick the portraits myself."

"..." There were hundreds of women, and it took a long time to look at the portraits alone.Besides, Lin Rongchen has so many opportunities to deal with every day, how can he have time to choose someone from thousands of portraits?Zhou Zhong suggested, "Why don't the household department screen out some first, and let the emperor personally look over the rest?"

"Alright." Lin Rongchen found a comfortable position, leaned on the dragon chair, and asked suddenly, "Zhouzhong, you should know why I decreed not to allow people to participate in the election this time."

Should know?Should he know?Zhou Zhongzhong beat a drum, knelt down and said: "I don't dare to presume the sacred meaning."

"It's okay."

Zhou Zhong thought about it, kowtowed and said, "I'm afraid... I know."

Lin Rongchen said: "Let's listen."

Zhou Zhong rubbed the cold sweat on his forehead, "The emperor wants to use the family power behind the concubine selection to contain...contain..."

Lin Rongchen said lightly: "What are you restraining?"

Zhou Zhong gritted his teeth: "Restrain the grand master." Since the emperor asked him to say it, then he said it.

Lin Rongchen smiled, "So, do you know how to choose?"

"I know...I know." In this way, there is only one condition for choosing a concubine, and no official position in the family is too small.

"Also, if I called you today, would you turn around and tell the Grand Master what I said?" Lin Rongchen's eyes were particularly deep in the firelight, and even seemed to have a faint... killing intent.

He's threatening midweek.

Zhou Xin trembled, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will only do my job well, and don't care about anything else."

"Well, let's go down."

In the middle of the night, Yan Xi woke up in pain.

The pain in his right arm became more and more unbearable, he must have been injured in Yihonglou.In the middle of the night, there was nowhere to find a doctor, and the pain was so painful that I couldn't sleep, so I had to get up and sit until dawn.

In the morning of the second day, his right arm was swollen like a pig's leg, and the undershirt was stretched until it might collapse at any time. He really lived through the night like a year.

When kneeling and prostrating in the early morning, he couldn't lift his right arm at all. How could Lin Rongchen's eyes be sharp enough, and he was born to see his abnormality in a large crowd of people.

In the early morning, I left people alone.Yan Xi tried her best to pretend to be normal, but she couldn't bring up what happened yesterday. "Does the emperor have something to order?"

Lin Rongchen spit out two words: "Raise your hand."

Yan Xi raised his left arm.

"Raise your right hand."

Yan Xi's face moved slightly, he gritted his teeth and raised his right arm.

"Injured?" Lin Rongchen stepped off the dragon chair, staring at him with burning eyes.

"No." Yan Xi didn't admit it, and couldn't admit it.

"Oh?" Lin Rongchen held his arm slightly, observing his expression with sideways eyes.

Yan Xi has a blank face.

Lin Rongchen suddenly rolled up his sleeves.The arm was black and purple.His pupils tightened, and he said in a deep voice, "Why did you get hurt?"

Yan Xi rolled his eyes, and said with a wry smile: "Weichen accidentally fell last night, and I don't know why he just slept like this."

"Tell the imperial physician." Lin Rongchen turned his head to be fair to Duke Zhou.

"It's not a big deal. I will go to see the doctor after I leave court, no trouble..."

"Shut up!" Lin Rongchen checked his arm carefully.Yan Xi looked down and saw his trembling eyelashes, and his worried and gentle face, and his mouth was dry for a while.

"Why didn't you go to the doctor last night?"

Lin Rongchen suddenly made a sound, he hurriedly looked away, and took a breath, "I didn't feel it at night, and the pain was unbearable until midnight."

"How hard did you fall to fall like this? Tell the truth!" Lin Rongchen believed his nonsense.

"It's just..." Yan Xi just opened his mouth, when Lin Rongchen added, "Don't deceive the king, tell the truth!"

Nothing can be hidden from him.

"Yesterday, the madam who was leaning on the red building fell down the stairs, Weichen grabbed her, but she didn't want to roll down the stairs with her." Yan Xi didn't dare to hide anything.

"Together... rolled down?" Lin Rongchen raised his eyebrows and asked again.

Yan Xi was speechless, "Eh...it's not the kind of 'scroll' that the emperor thought."

"What kind of fuck is that?" Lin Rongchen asked inquisitively.

Yan Xi didn't want to answer, so she bared her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, it hurts..."

Lin Rongchen let go of his hand, put down his sleeves, and did not ask any more questions, "In the future, you are not allowed to lean on the red building again." After thinking for a while, he added, "Not only leaning on the red building, but all the brothels are not allowed to go again! Otherwise, I will I will lock you up in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice!"

"Yes." Yan Xi replied very quickly.

Not long after, Doctor Li came.

Fortunately, Yan Xi's injury was not serious, and he didn't hurt his bones, so he prescribed some medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and after a few instructions, he went to decoct the medicine.

Lin Rongchen said: "After taking the medicine, go back to raise it, and you won't have to go to the Imperial Academy during this time."

Unexpectedly, he was able to rest for a while because of a blessing in disguise.Before he could be happy in the future, he heard Lin Rongchen say: "The salary should be deducted accordingly."

Yan Xi: "..."

During the period of recuperating from illness, the threshold of Yan Xi's family was almost trampled down, he didn't know that he was so popular in court.Di Qiu, Du Jun, Qiu Zhonghai, Chang Xiao, and even Zhao Xun all brought supplements to visit him.

"..." He just fell down a bit, and it's not that he fell ill and couldn't get out of bed, so what?There is also Yu Junyuan, who brings him food and meals every day.Yan Xi pushed a few times, but couldn't stop him.

"You're injured, how can you cook? If I take it back as it is, don't say that my mother doesn't agree, it's Ziyuan... Do you want her to come and deliver the meal for you in person?" Yu Ziyuan said these three words successfully. Stuffing all Yan Xi's words into his stomach, he obediently took Yu Junyuan's food box.The emperor is so narrow-minded, if he finds out that Yu Ziyuan has brought him meals, his peaceful life may come to an end.

Yan Xi took a few mouthfuls of rice, looked up and saw Yu Junyuan staring at him hesitantly, put down his chopsticks and said, "Brother Yunlin, you might as well speak up if you have something to say."

Yu Junyuan scratched his head, very embarrassed, "It's... Ziyuan's matter. Mother will take her back for a while. Before leaving, mother wants to be with you again and ask you what you think."

"He has no idea!" The two turned their heads, and there was a person standing in the courtyard with a tall figure, a pair of thin lips tightly pursed, and a cold light in his eyes.

Yan Xi: "..." How can it be so unfortunate that people who shouldn't hear it always hear what they shouldn't hear?

Yu Junyuan: "Emperor, Your Majesty..."

"Yeah." Lin Rongchen entered the door with a cold face, saw all kinds of supplements on the table, piled up like a hill, and frowned, "Mr. Yan is very popular, but it's just so much after a fall. People come to visit."

"This...is all sent by Chang Xiao and brother Yunlin. Well, there is also the princess." He ignored Du Jun and Qiu Zhonghai.

Lin Rongchen didn't ask any more questions, he just said: "The princess is here too?"

Yan Xi nodded, "Don't worry, the emperor, the princess came quietly."

"It's getting more and more outrageous! A girl always runs to a man's house, how decent!" Lin Rongchen has always doted on her, and as long as it's not too much, she doesn't want to restrain people, but since she met Gu Tingzhi and After Yan Xi, there were no rules.Another day still has to be disciplined.

"Since the emperor is here, my minister, my minister will go back first." Unlike Yan Xi, Yu Junyuan was calm and composed towards Lin Rongchen, but when he saw the emperor, he was terribly frightened.

Lin Rongchen nodded.After waiting for someone to leave the door, he glanced at Yan Xi, "Yan Xi, I have a question for you, and you answer it honestly."

When did he not answer the question honestly?Of course, whether the honest answer is nonsense is another matter. "Excuse me, Your Majesty."

"Do you want to get married? If you really want to..." So what?Lin Rongchen paused, if Yan Xi really had this intention, what would he do?Use power to force him to give up this idea?

"If Yan Xi thinks, what will the emperor do? Allow me to marry freely?" Yan Xi asked back.

Lin Rongchen snorted coldly, "You're dreaming!"

Yan Xi: "..."

"Then what else is the emperor asking!" Yan Xi was very angry.

"I just want to remind you that if you can't do what the Lord does, don't make promises to others easily."

He was referring to the matter of Yu Ziyuan.

Yan Xi said: "I don't like Miss Yu, why would I promise her?"

The coldness in Lin Rongchen's eyes disappeared instantly, "It's good that you know."

Yan Xi poured tea and handed it to him with one hand, "Did the emperor come to see this minister on purpose?"

"Just passing by." Joke, how could he say yes? "Where's my portrait?" Lin Rongchen looked around a few times, but he didn't see the painting. "Did you throw it away?"

"How can it be? Weichen put it away." How could Yan Xi have the nerve to hang it in the room?Especially during this period of time when people come and go. "There have been constant guests at home these past few days, I'm afraid that if someone accidentally gets dirty..."

Lin Rongchen bent his lips, "You can hang it in the bedroom."

"Okay. Weichen will hang it up immediately." Yan Xi followed the good advice.

Lin Rongchen nodded with great satisfaction, and left after the painting was hung back.
