Your majesty, please stay in the cold palace

Xu Chengze was just joking, seeing Guo Heng's expression was gloomy, he quickly said: "Your Majesty, I don't care what official I am, as long as I can help you."

Guo Heng already knew that he thought so, and immediately smiled, "I knew you were not so narrow-minded."

Xu Chengze rolled his eyes: "You know I'm careless, what are you doing out of the palace again? I'm afraid people don't know that you and I have a close relationship? Be careful, someone will impeach me tomorrow and say I'm a courtier or something."

Guo Heng smiled and pinched Xu Chengze's nose, "You bastard, I came to see you kindly, but you actually said such a lot of nonsense, you really don't regard me as an emperor anymore."

Xu Chengze raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Do you want me to treat you as the emperor?"

He just woke up, his face was flushed, and the corners of his eyes were full of spring. Guo Heng couldn't bear it immediately when he saw him like this.He lowered his head and kissed Xu Chengze's bright red lips, feeling that he couldn't kiss enough.

In the past few days, Guo Heng always hugged him and kissed him every now and then, Xu Chengze was used to it.After the kiss was over, when he looked up and saw Yi Na standing at the door, his face still felt that there was no place to put it, and it suddenly became hot as if it was smoking.

He turned his head and bit Guo Heng's shoulder.Guo Heng was in pain, and when he turned his head to see Yi Na, he understood a little bit.

He deliberately said: "Ozawa, they will know sooner or later."

The voice was not too loud, just enough for Yi Na to hear.

"But..." He looked at the door again, and Yi Na was no longer there.

Guo Heng smiled and said: "Xiao Ze, they are all smart people, maybe they already knew about it."

As he spoke, he kissed her again. The person in his arms was so sweet and soft that he couldn't stop.

Yi Na came in again, holding a washbasin towel and other things in her hand.

She had no expression on her face, but said indifferently: "My lord, you can wash up now."

After finishing speaking, he didn't intend to go out, and stood aside with his head slightly lowered.

Xu Chengze smacked Guo Heng's lips before he let him go.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, you should go back to the palace." He got up and got out of bed, and said in the voice of the second and eighth general, "You are the emperor, the king of all saints, it's better not to go out of the palace."

Guo Heng didn't stop Xu Chengze this time, but he didn't leave either, so he just sat on the chair and watched him wash up.

"Ozawa, I just came to see you, you not only drove me away, but also said such a carload of heart-piercing words, it really made me feel uncomfortable

Over. "

Xu Chengze was silent. Of course he was moved when the emperor came to see him, but he had to stop the emperor from doing this.It won't make people think too much if the emperor comes here once in a while, but what he is afraid of is that the emperor will be targeted.In case someone tries to harm him, he will be the one to blame

people.

"Your Majesty, you know what I want."

Seeing his face turn cold, Guo Heng knew that he had said something wrong.

He hugged him in his arms and said in a low voice: "Xiao Ze, I have wronged you. When I clean up the strict party, I will let you enter the palace openly. At that time..."

Xu Chengze raised his hand to cover his mouth, glared at him and said, "The emperor is talking nonsense again, what do you mean let me enter the palace in a fair and honest way? I'm not a woman!"

"Aren't you a woman?" Guo Heng stared at him pretendingly, "I think you are more beautiful than a woman! It tickled my heart. Yes, you are not a woman, you are a little fairy who took my heart away."

As he spoke, his lips kissed Xu Chengze's.

Before Xu Chengze indulged, he was finally relieved to see that Yi Na was no longer in the house.

Although Guo Heng got tired of seeing Xu Chengze, he didn't forget the business.

"Ozawa, I think we should change our strategy of dealing with strict government and one party. Although I have rejected many of their proposals and punished some officials overtly and covertly, those people are all insignificant officials. , They still have a large number of people. Just like today, they put pressure on me together, even if I don't want to in my heart, I still have to compromise. "

Xu Chengze nodded silently.

He knows that Yan Zheng has controlled the government for so many years, and the relationship between the forces in the DPRK and China is intricate, and it cannot be overthrown in such a short period of time.Originally, he thought, first pull up the big tree of Yan Zheng, and when the tree falls and the monkeys disperse, Yan's party will naturally be eradicated.But Yan Zheng has become smarter now, and he doesn't easily stand out on his own, and his cronies always speak.Even if it annoys the emperor, it has nothing to do with him.He also begged the emperor for that person and earned a few favors.

Xu Chengze thought a lot, and finally said: "Your Majesty, maybe our direction is wrong."

"Oh?" Guo Heng's eyes lit up all of a sudden, "Xiao Ze has a new idea?"

"Yes. I do have an idea, but I don't know if it will work."

Guo Heng smiled and said, "Let's hear it?"

There are many eyes and ears in the palace, Guo Heng arrived at Lord Xu Ruoxu's residence, within half an hour, the news spread to Yan's residence.

Yan Chengcai wondered, "Father, where did this Xu Ruoxu come from? Why does the emperor like him so much?"

More than just like it?Persistence is favoritism.The number one scholar in the first high school was named a second-rank official, and when he heard that he was giving lectures to Guo Rui, the emperor often went to talk to Xu Ruoxu.The emperor was ill, and no one saw him, and he was the only foreign minister to accompany him, and stayed in Ninghe Palace.Where is Ninghe Palace?But the palace where the emperor's favorite concubine Ning lived, the emperor has been reluctant to let people live in the palace where Ning Guifei left, and it still remains the same.

Yan Zheng was also very puzzled, who exactly is this Xu Ruoxu?As if it just popped out of nowhere.But he knew that although Xu Ruoxu was young, he should not be underestimated.

He suddenly remembered something, "Is there any result about the exam paper?"

Yan Chengcai took a sip of water and said disapprovingly, "Father, don't worry, that person has already been dealt with. Without witnesses, no one can investigate further."

Yan Zheng nodded, "Yes. I didn't expect Xu Ruoxu to be so cautious that he wasn't fooled."

Yan Chengcai rubbed his chin and said, "Father, Xu Ruoxu is an ordinary student, how could he think of handing over the exam questions to Kong Qingshu? Could it be that he has something to do with the Kong family?"

Yan Zheng snorted coldly, "Kong Qingshu and his son have been fighting with us for so long, but they haven't taken any advantage. If Xu Ruoxu is his man, it makes sense."

"Father, do you want me to meet that Xu Ruoxu?"

Yan Cheng shook his head, "There's no rush. Isn't he going to the court in two days? It's natural to see if he has the skills."

"What father said is true. But, if he really has something to do with the Kong family, we'd better make preparations early."

"You're right." Yan Zheng stroked his beard, called Yan Fu, and asked him to find someone to watch Xu Ruoxu.

"Chengcai, your recent performance is pretty good. However, I heard that Kong Qingping is leaving for Shan County tomorrow. What about you? When do you plan to leave?"

"Father, do you have to go?"

Yan Chengcai thought that if he worked hard these days, his father would forget about it, but he still didn't escape.

Yan Zheng looked at his face like a bitter melon, and said calmly: "Chengcai, you are older than Kong Qingping and have been in the court for a longer time. How can you let him compare? If you don't go, don't you let Kong Qingshu and his son see it?" Did you make a joke? Besides, you only need to go for a few days, and I have passed on the word that someone will take care of you on the way."

When Yan Chengcai heard what his father said, he knew he had to go.

He lowered his head, reluctantly, took two steps, then turned around and said, "Father, where is Chun'er..."

Yan Zheng's face sank, "Chun'er is also your name?"

Yan Chengcai rubbed his nose, "Hey, I'm the queen's brother! Besides, I'm just calling at home..."

"Not even at home!"

"Yes." Yan Chengcai lowered his voice, "Father, the emperor's illness this time..."

Yan Zheng's gloomy face seemed to drip water, "Huh! I didn't expect to fall short! But, there is still a chance!"

"Father, they won't find anything, will they?"

Yan Zheng sneered, "Only relying on Hu's loyalty? He can't find out anything."

Yan Chengcai was relieved to hear what his father said.

He didn't understand, his sister was the queen, his father was the grand master, they were already under one person and above ten thousand, so why bother.Is his father still going to be the emperor?

He stopped the terrible thought abruptly, didn't he?

Yan Zheng raised his head, looking at Yan Chengcai's flickering eyes, "What are you thinking? I'm going out tomorrow, why don't you hurry up and get ready?"

"say,,

疋.

Xu Chengze didn't know that he had become the person Yan Zheng and his son wanted to deal with. Resting at home for the past few days, besides studying at home, he just went to the streets and alleys.

A-Lian was very curious, "My lord, don't you like going out? Why aren't you at home these days?"

Xu Chengze smiled and handed her the vegetables he bought, "It's so boring to be at home all day! You should go out more. You and Yi Na are the same. You can go out more and buy cheap vegetables."

A-Lian took a handful of shallots and two handfuls of green vegetables in doubt, "Master, is this the vegetable you bought? How much is it?"

"One copper plate for shallots, three copper coins for two handfuls of rapeseed."

A Lian didn't expect that the son who had never bought vegetables would not be cheated, "It's not expensive, it's just the price." Xu Chengze smiled proudly: "I asked people in the whole street to compare the prices of vegetables. I just bought it, how could I be deceived?"

A-Lian couldn't imagine Xu Chengze, with his delicate and gentle scholarly face, inquiring about prices from family to family in the vegetable market.

"My lord, let the servants do this kind of thing in the future. You are Mr. Zuoqian! How can you do such a thing?"

A Lian is from southern Xinjiang, and she always doesn't understand Xu Chengze's current official position, and Xu Chengze doesn't correct it, anyway, it doesn't matter

Xu Chengze went into the room and sat down, Yi Na had already wiped his hands with a towel and served him tea.

Xu Chengze wiped his hands and face, drank a cup of tea, and said, "It's because I'm an official, so I have to go out more and learn more about the sufferings of the common people. If I even pay how much is a catty of vegetables, how much is a catty of rice? How can the common people really plead for the common people even if they don’t know how much tax they have to pay in a month?”

A-Lian murmured: "My lord, you are such a good official!"

Xu Chengze said lightly: "To me, fame doesn't matter, I just want to do more for the common people so that they can live and work in peace and contentment."
