I Really Am a Slag Shou!

After the ministers presented their birthday gifts, the banquet officially began.

Most of the things sent by the courtiers are some rare gadgets, not worth much, but they are better than hunting for novelties.Those with titles, such as the Dukes of the State, and the princes of the county, they gave more expensive gold and silver antiques. The higher the grade, the more expensive the gifts, just like a negotiated agreement.

After all, gift giving is also very particular. It is not an ordinary hardship to let the emperor see his intentions, but also let the regent see how much money he has embezzled.

……

The eunuchs beside him put away the things Chi Zhao just took a look at, but Shen Wumian only kept the things from him, and just held them in his hand and played with them carefully.

All the courtiers were toasting, and from time to time someone would stand up and offer a toast to the emperor, but everyone knows that the little emperor doesn't know how to drink, so the toasters are all generous, and the emperor just needs to raise his glass if he wants to. The wine in the glass didn't move at all.

People tend to drift away when they drink alcohol, even if these people are the pillars of the country, they are not exempt.Gradually, the originally reserved and introverted ministers became more and more happy to drink, and their voices became louder.

This dynasty is similar to the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Although there are differences in respect between people, they are not as rigid as the Ming and Qing Dynasties. When they got excited, two generals punched on the spot. He just smiled and didn't make a sound to stop him.

The country is not peaceful in the first place. If you can't even drink alcohol to your heart's content, then you will not be able to survive this day.

Seeing that it was almost time, a group of dancers in cool clothes came, and everyone's eyes were attracted by these rare and beautiful beauties, except for two people.

One is Chi Zhao who focuses on playing with the objects in his hands, and the other is Shen Wumian who focuses on Chi Zhao.

What Shen Wumian gave was very ordinary, just a piece of jade pendant. The material of the jade pendant was good, but in the palace where even the toilet was made of high-quality rosewood wood, it was not a rare item, and the shape carved on the jade pendant was also very strange. A pattern with a birthday meaning.

The front of the jade pendant is carved with an evergreen pine and a unicorn sleeping under the pine tree. The carving is so fine that even the lines on the unicorn's horns are carved out. On the back of the jade pendant, there is a character with some ancient strokes.

Chi Zhao squinted his eyes for a long time, and finally half-guessed and thought, this should be a word for sleep.

To be honest, if you don't know who gave this jade pendant, Chi Zhao might think that the word reads "呵", the "呷" of Xiabuxiabu.

……

I heard that the Shen family, where the regent was born, has a rule that on the day of the birth of a child of the direct line, the most skilled craftsman in the world must be invited to carve a jade article for the newborn. If it is a son, it will carve a jade pendant;Yudu had been selected long ago, and he waited for the child to be born, had his name fixed, and his horoscope approved before starting work.

If there is no accident, this jade article should be well preserved for more than ten years. When the child grows up and begins to be engaged, the jade article will be taken out and given to the other party of the engagement as a token.

The one in Chi Zhao's hand should be the engagement jade pendant made for him by Shen Wumian's parents. He turned and looked at it for a long time without expression, as if what he was holding in his hand was not a piece of jade pendant, but a piece of fat and thin pork.

Shen Wumian didn't seem to care, but in fact, he never took his eyes off Chi Zhao. When he was not a prince, he led troops into the hinterland of the enemy country several times, and he was not as nervous as he is now.The Yulu fine wine in the cup was like white water, he drank cup after cup, but couldn't taste the taste of this wine at all.

In fact, Shen Wumian's move doesn't have any representative meaning. His idea is still the same as before, to assist the little emperor and strive to make him a wise king. As for the relationship between the two, whether it is further or maintaining the current state, he It doesn't matter.

He is not Shen Shiliu. The little emperor listens to whatever he says. He thinks longer-term. If the emperor marries a man, it will inevitably become a stain on the emperor's life. Erase all the achievements of the emperor's life. After thousands of years, people can only think of him marrying a male queen, but they can't remember any other great achievements he has made.

Shen Wumian didn't know what Chen Yi cared about, he never cared about those false names, going around, his mentality returned to the past.As long as it is what Chen Yi wants to do, he will do it for him without any complaints.

Of course, the condition is that he stays by his side all the time and cannot look at other people.

The food for the birthday banquet was carefully prepared by the Imperial Dining Room, but Chi Zhao didn't touch a single bite. He still looked at the jade pendant in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.The system disappeared again. It is said that the legendary preliminary competition will be held soon, and the preliminary competition will be broadcast live on the entire network. The system has been under a lot of pressure recently, and a lot of redundant data garbage is generated every day. Chi Zhao thought about it, probably this is the system The harbinger of baldness in the world.

……

It's normal to feel nervous before the competition, and Chi Zhao didn't try to comfort it, and he felt that the system would definitely pass the preliminary round.

After all, the time for the system to practice singing is really super super super long.

……

It didn't matter that the system wasn't there, it was just convenient for Chi Zhao to think about something. He lowered his eyes and scratched the lines on the jade pendant with his thumb little by little. Suddenly, a drunken and loud voice sounded from the hall.

"Your Majesty, when the late Emperor was at His Majesty's age, he had been married for a year. There were more than a dozen concubines in the palace, including Empress, Concubine Shu, Concubine Shu, Concubine Xian, and beauties. The old minister dared to ask, should Your Majesty also get married? Opening up branches and leaves for the royal family?"

The person who said this is the right minister, and both the left minister and the right minister are regents, but compared to the absolute royalist left minister, the right minister's painting style is a bit strange, because no one can understand who he is one-of-a-kind.

If it is said that he supports the regent, but many times he is against Shen Wumian. If he is said that he supports the little emperor, but he and Mr. Wei, the prime minister of the left, are natural rivals, and there is no shortage of insinuations between each other.Shen Wumian guessed that he might have secretly colluded with people from other forces, but after a long investigation, he did not find any clues.

In the end, Shen Wumian could only come to one conclusion, this right-hand man, Mr. Huang, is just an old idiot, he got mixed up everywhere, and he didn't make alliances anywhere, so he got to the position of right-hand man so alone .

Being able to stand alone in this situation for so many years shows that this person is not simple.

However, after he said this sentence today, his career of being alone is probably coming to an end.

After hearing Master Huang's words, everyone's first reaction was to look at the little emperor sitting on the top, only the prime minister on the left. He turned his head quickly and looked at the regent with an uncertain expression first.

Prime Minister Zuo was in a complicated mood. In fact, Prime Minister Right had wanted to tell His Majesty a long time ago, but after the palace break-in incident last year, most of his people were killed and injured, and now he has no strength to confront the Prince Regent head-on.

Moreover, he still remembers clearly what the regent said to him in the palace that day.

The meaning of the regent is very clear. He does not want to be emperor, and he will never let others shake the status of the Chen Dynasty, but this is all because he likes His Majesty. If His Majesty is by his side and treats him well, he will He is willing to be his subject, but if someone dares to take His Majesty away from him, or His Majesty himself wants to escape from him, then the first thing he will do is to rise up and change the dynasty.

And the second thing is to make the current majesty the empress.

Being liked by a man like Shen Wumian is Chen Guo's luck and also Chen Guo's misfortune. Now the internal and external troubles are serious. To be honest, if Chen Yi is really going to be in charge, with Chen Yi's current level, he will definitely not be able to keep Chen Guo The only one who can maintain a delicate balance between the inside and outside, and deter other countries from invading, is Shen Wumian.

So after leaving the palace that day, Prime Minister Zuo just thought about it for an hour, and decided to pretend that nothing happened. As for the issue of the royal heir, he only thought about it once, and stopped thinking about it.No matter how weak the royal family is, it won't be impossible to find a child with royal blood. On the contrary, there is only one capable person like Shen Wumian in the world.

These truths, Prime Minister Zuo think very clearly, but others don't think so. In fact, some people have proposed to let Chen Yi get married, but those voices have been suppressed by Shen Wumian before they are uttered. Today, Prime Minister Right suddenly proposed this. Shen Wumian was also caught off guard by this matter, because before today, the prime minister had never shown any signs of wanting to get involved in this matter.

The main hall became quiet for a while, even the two generals who punched were silent. Seeing that something was wrong, the dancer and musician also slowly stopped their movements. Such a lively scene suddenly became silent. The situation is so strange. Most people are stunned.

The right minister still had that cheerful look, Shen Wumian stared at him for a while, then turned his head to look at the boy at the top.

Today is a birthday banquet, so the young man wore a dark red dragon robe. The young man has fair skin, which is very suitable for this color. A little bit of meat, at this time he was supporting his head with one hand, and holding the jade pendant he gave him in the other.

With a "click", the jade pendant was placed on the table, and the sound of the collision between the jade and the white marble table was extremely clear. Seeing the little emperor's movements, for some reason, Shen Wumian's heart sank.

Now Chi Zhao is not so transparent in front of the ministers. Shen Wumian intentionally or unintentionally let him participate in the decision-making of the government. After such a long time, everyone can already see that the regent is delegating power, although he does not know why. I will do this, but everyone knows that the current emperor is no longer the puppet emperor in the past.

The emperor can make decisions, and just now the right minister was the emperor himself who asked directly. Everyone looked at him nervously, not knowing how he would answer.

Shen Wumian not only repelled others from mentioning his own marriage, but also repelled others from mentioning the emperor's marriage.To be eligible to participate in the birthday banquet, one must be an important minister of the emperor or a relative of the emperor. In short, everyone is not an idiot. Since ancient times, the messiest and dirtiest things always come from the emperor's family. Such a simple thing, a little thought It's almost clear.

This is why everyone dare not speak.

Everyone was looking at Chi Zhao, but Chi Zhao turned his eyes and looked at Shen Wumian who was closest to him.

Chi Zhao's eyes are pure and clean, but because they are too clean, they will arouse disgust from others.If the water is pure, there will be no fish, and if it is extremely clean, it means that there is nothing there, no love, no hatred, no country, and no court.

There is no such person as Shen Wumian.

Shen Wumian's pupils constricted slightly, and he straightened his body. It seemed that he wanted to stand up, but he was concerned about other people, so he still sat firmly in his original position.

Chi Zhao probably understood what he wanted to do, he probably wanted to rush over and ask why he didn't answer, why he hesitated, but even if he asked, Chi Zhao didn't know the answer.

He didn't understand why he hesitated. In fact, he originally wanted to agree.

It is an opportunity for Shen Wumian to delegate power, he can slowly gain power, just like the original owner and Shen Wumian in the last life, fighting each other for power, fighting to the death, Shen Wumian likes him, and watched what happened in the previous life If things like this happen again, he will definitely feel very uncomfortable. By the way, Chi Zhao can also marry an ambitious woman, and cooperate with her to cope with Shen Wumian. Anyway, he has the potion of spring night and one night, so he is not afraid of being discovered.

But after seeing Shen Wumian's current appearance, he couldn't speak again.

Shen Wumian stared at him, his eyes were cold and sharp, he looked terrible, but in fact he was very stern, he was nervous and afraid, but he didn't want to show his true emotions, and he didn't want to be sympathized with. Ridiculous, so he can only disguise himself with majestic anger.What others saw was the regent with a gloomy face, but what Chi Zhao saw was helpless, sleepless like a prisoner waiting for judgment.

"We will discuss this matter later."

Half-closed his eyelids, Chi Zhao replied in a normal voice. At this point, the tense atmosphere in the hall finally relaxed, and the people below were also relieved, and the atmosphere slowly became lively again.

The surroundings seem to have returned to the appearance at the beginning of the birthday banquet, but in fact no one is in the mood to eat, drink and chat anymore. Everyone is acting, trying to put on a lively and noisy illusion to cover up the accident just now.While everyone else was trying their best to perform, Prime Minister Right started to eat happily, and he didn't seem to realize what he said at all.

In other words, he realized it, but he didn't care, or in other words, he had his own goals that he wanted to achieve, and neither the regent nor the little emperor would arouse his concern.

Chi Zhao sighed, it was really difficult for him to survive among a group of actors.

……

After not drinking for a long time, Chi Zhao really misses the taste of alcohol. After traveling to so many worlds and experiencing so many things, Chi Zhao always feels that this world is the most tiring world, and he should relax.

Picking up the wine glass and drank the small cup of wine, Chi Zhao smacked his lips.

It's okay, the taste is good, and it doesn't feel hot.

Therefore, Chi Zhao ordered the eunuch who was serving at the side to pour him another glass with peace of mind. The eunuch hesitated. He raised his head and looked at the regent first. After getting the other party's approval, he refilled another glass for Chi Zhao .

Chi Zhao curled his lips where Shen Wumian couldn't see, and then drank the new glass in one gulp.

After repeating this for three or four cups, the regent signaled the eunuch not to pour any more. When Chi Zhao heard the eunuch advise him not to drink any more, he didn't make a fuss, but nodded obediently, "Got it."

Hearing that the little emperor was so well-behaved, the eunuch couldn't help showing a smile. Their majesty is really cute, never making trouble, and never embarrassing their servants. It can be said that he is very well-behaved.

The next second, the well-behaved little emperor in his heart suddenly stretched out his hand and poured himself a glass of wine. Before he could stop him, he saw him carrying a fruit plate in the distance, and picked up a piece of Nan Guo Shang from inside. He offered the cherry, then raised his hand high, and when he couldn't raise it any higher, he began to adjust the angle.

Tilting his head and looking at it, he was sure he was aiming at the wine glass below. Chi Zhao let go of his hand at a high altitude, and there was a vivid sound effect in his mouth, "Piu!——"

Watching the cherries fall into the wine glass, causing a splash of water, Chi Zhao picked up the wine glass, turned his head and looked at the eunuch with a mask on his face seriously, "Do you know what this is called?"

Eunuch: "... this old slave doesn't know."

Chi Zhao looked at him angrily, "I don't even know this, this is called Pretty in Pink."

Eunuch: "..."

What? ?
