yes sire
Chapter 8 Lychee
Han You didn't fully agree with the Legalist school's point of view, but Han Feizi was the textbook assigned to Xia Siyan by the late emperor, so he had no choice but to combine the book and tell Xia Siyan the history of the dynasty.And Xia Siyan also thought this was very interesting, and was willing to listen more.
But today he was always a little absent-minded, and Xia Siyan corrected several mistakes in a row.
The emperor put one hand on the desk and looked at him with his chin resting on his cheek. The eagerness in his eyes prevented him from concentrating.He always thought of the painting drawn by Xia Siyan. The person in the painting was his own face, and the eyes were Xia Siyan's eyes at this moment. This inexplicable and absurd idea confused Han You's thoughts.He wanted to finish today's content as soon as possible, and then leave the palace as soon as possible and escape from here, but the more anxious he was, the more mistakes he made.
When he mispronounced the name of a person in history again, Han You stopped in frustration, "Your Majesty, I'm ashamed, why don't you come here today?"
Xia Siyan became happy, showing a row of white teeth in a smile: "What's the matter today, sir?"
Han You wanted to find an excuse to say that he was not feeling well, but before he could open his mouth, he heard Feng Ke report at the door, saying that what His Majesty wanted was ready.
Xia Siyan stood up and asked Feng Ke to bring the things in.
Feng Ke led a little eunuch into the hall, and the tray in the little eunuch's hand contained a big bowl, on which were piled up lychees in the shape of a hill.The bowl must have been filled with ice cubes, and the mist could be vaguely seen rising from the middle of the red lychees.
Xia Siyan likes to eat lychees, and this is the season to eat lychees again.Gao Qing would order Nanfang to send lychees to Beijing at this time of year. In the first few years, they were picked and packed in ice buckets, and then sent to the palace in an expedited [-]-mile journey from the Ministry of War. Half of the lychees sent were often broken, and the rest were destroyed. Neither was fresh enough.Later, Gao Qing came up with another way to have the whole lychee tree dug out from the ground together with the soil. When it was transported to the capital, the lychee was still hanging on the tree.
This method allowed the emperor to eat the freshest fruit, but the transportation cost also increased several times. Wu Wenci once wrote a letter condemning Gao Qing's extravagant behavior.Han You remembered very clearly that Xia Siyan was protecting Gao Qing at that time.
Gao Qing was really good at making the emperor happy, Han You thought distractedly, what is Xia Siyan's attitude towards Gao Qing?If Gao Qing is willing to take a step back, and his ambition to cover the sky with one hand is not so obvious, I am afraid that no one can shake Gao Qing's position, just like Xia Siyan's father and emperor rely heavily on Gao Qing.
If it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't coax the emperor like this.However, Han You thought again, I don't need to coax him like this, what he wants is something else.
Xia Siyan seemed very happy, and asked the servant to put the litchi on the low table in the middle of the imperial couch, and pulled Han You to sit down.Feng Ke wanted to serve beside him, but was kicked out by Xia Siyan.
When the emperor and Han You were around, he didn't like other people.Feng Ke then led the little eunuch out, and then gently closed the door.
Thinking about his thoughts, Han You peeled a lychee, put the bright white and transparent flesh in the emperor's hands, and said after deliberating, "If it is found out that the Ganzhou grain shortage fraud case is indeed related to Gao Qing, what will His Majesty plan to do with Gao Qing?" ?”
Xia Siyan put the whole lychee into his mouth, and bit it into pieces carefully, feeling the sweetness and coolness spreading in his mouth, showing a very happy expression.Then he spit out a round kernel into a small dish beside him, and then slowly said: "Look at how much he participated in, let them withdraw the money, kill a few more local officials in Ganzhou, and then take Gao Qing move the position."
Han You's heart moved, he picked up another lychee with his fingers and peeled it off for the emperor, and asked, "How does Your Majesty plan to move Gao Qing's position?"
Xia Siyan didn't even think about it, and said calmly: "If this matter was initiated by him, then we can deal with it according to the laws of Zhao Kingdom. If this matter was not initiated by him, it is just The people under him have made a fool of themselves, and he has to be punished for his ineffectiveness in governing, taking away his position as the chief assistant of the cabinet."
Gao Qing is still in charge of the Minister of Rites, if he just seized the position of chief assistant, he will still be a cabinet minister, and it is very likely that he will make a comeback in the future.Han You was thinking about how to investigate the matter and to what extent, in order to completely defeat Gao Qing without getting too involved, and at the same time make the emperor feel acceptable.
Xia Siyan took the lychee that Han You had peeled, carefully took out the core, and fed it to Han You's mouth.Han You was thinking about something, relaxed his guard, and subconsciously opened his mouth to answer.
The pulp is soft and delicate, just like Xia Siyan's fingers.But Xia Siyan's fingers were hot, leaving a little warmth on his lips, which made Han You's heart skip a beat.
Xia Siyan's lips were red, with a layer of moist water. He looked at Han You and said bewitchingly: "I removed Gao Qing from the position of chief assistant, and let you take it, okay?"
Han You was taken aback, and was caught off guard by the juicy flesh and coughed, "No...Your Majesty can't..."
Xia Siyan laughed, "Oh, yes, you are not yet a minister, so I will mention you as a minister first, and then enter the cabinet."
Han You calmed down, and said seriously, "Your Majesty, don't play tricks."
"Don't you want it? Isn't that what you study and take the exam to become an official?"
Han You couldn't say against his will that he didn't want it, but he couldn't say that he didn't want it in this way.Because the important ministers of the Zhao Kingdom were all appointed by the emperor in the final analysis, if he said that he did not want to be favored by the emperor, it would be somewhat hypocritical.
But winning the emperor's favor does not mean winning the hearts of the people. He doesn't want to be a sycophant, or in other words, he doesn't want to be called a sycophant.What he wants must be obtained by himself, and it must be a matter of course and justifiable.
Explaining these things to the emperor will inevitably make the emperor angry, so Han You replied politely: "The seniority is still young, so I dare not try to be high."
Xia Siyan smiled, and said half-truth, "Hypocrisy."
Han You didn't deny it, and continued to pick up the lychee and peel it off, and handed it to Xia Siyan.Xia Siyan took it and fed it back to his lips, this time he didn't answer it.
Xia Siyan's pretty eyebrows frowned, pressed the cold flesh to his lips, and ordered: "Eat."
Han You raised his head slightly to avoid it, "Your Majesty, this is not polite."
I don't know why this sentence angered Xia Siyan, his face was obviously ugly, and he reached forward again, trying to forcefully squeeze the flesh into Han You's lips.Han You felt that his mouth was parched and his heart was pounding in his chest. He couldn't avoid it, so he stood up, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will take my leave first."
After finishing speaking, he was about to leave, his avoidance hurt Xia Siyan, the more he wanted to hide, the more resentful Xia Siyan became.Seeing that he was about to leave, Xia Siyan said sharply, "How dare you!"
Han You stopped, stood with his hands folded, and looked down at the bright floor.Xia Siyan threw away the pulp in his hand, took another unpeeled lychee, stood up and held it to Han You's lips, saying, "Eat it."
Han You glanced at the small fruit, the red, scale-like skin was rough and thorny.He didn't know where he made the emperor unhappy again, so he sighed and said, "Your Majesty, stop making trouble."
Xia Siyan's eyes turned cold, and he ordered: "Eat! You have to take whatever I give you!"
Han You stared at Xia Siyan's red eyes, feeling that his eye sockets were sore and painful, and finally gave in, "Yes, Your Majesty."
He opened his lips and bit the rough and dry shell. Xia Siyan didn't seem to expect that he would really eat it, so he quickly retracted his hand, but Han You had already eaten the whole lychee into his mouth.
"Are you stupid?" Xia Siyan reached out to break his mouth, "Spit it out quickly!"
Han You looked away, and crushed the lychees without shells in his mouth. The sweetness of the flesh and the bitterness of the shells mixed together, making him frown uncomfortably.It is unknown whether the rough epidermis cut the delicate skin on the inner wall of the mouth, or he accidentally bit his tongue, and the rusty smell also spread in his mouth.
"Spit it out!" Xia Siyan broke his chin, roaring like an angry little beast, "You spit it out!"
Han You just hid and didn't listen to the emperor's words.
Xia Siyan spoke harshly and pushed Han You down on the imperial couch.
Xia Siyan was already taller than Han You, and Han You was no match for him.When he was pushed down, Han You's back hit the low table of the imperial couch heavily, the big bowl containing lychees was knocked over, and ice cubes and lychees rolled all over the couch.
Han You loosened his jaw, Xia Siyan put his finger into his mouth, and took out the lychee he had bitten.With blood stains on his fingers, Xia Siyan said angrily, "Are you stupid? Are you trying to make me angry?!"
Han You felt pain in his mouth, as if there were many small cuts, and the corners of his lips were broken. He stretched out his tongue and licked his lips, then calmed down quickly, and said calmly, "Your Majesty, Rong Chen will get up first."
Xia Siyan was mad, he hated Han You like this the most.He had already seen it just now, he saw the same struggling desire in Han You's eyes, he saw Han You's momentary compromise.However, that kind of Han You soon disappeared, and soon changed back to this serious and almost indifferent Minister of the Ministry of Officials and Minister of Wenhua Palace.
He wanted to peel off Han You's shell to see if the inside was as soft and sweet as a lychee.
This thought gripped him so hard that he was dragged down, he couldn't think of anything else, and he didn't care that the falling ice cubes melted and wet the golden silk upholstery.
He put one leg between Han You's legs, held Han You's hands tightly with both hands, and kissed Han You recklessly.
But today he was always a little absent-minded, and Xia Siyan corrected several mistakes in a row.
The emperor put one hand on the desk and looked at him with his chin resting on his cheek. The eagerness in his eyes prevented him from concentrating.He always thought of the painting drawn by Xia Siyan.
