The capital is a melon field, I happily eat melons

The next day, the emperor was even more sad when he heard the gossip about himself.

He said to Eunuch Li in disbelief: "Are they okay? Didn't they want to read Wei Qin's gossip? Why did they talk about me?"

Eunuch Li didn't know how to answer when he was questioned. How would I know if you ask me? Besides, you were like this when you were young. You were famous for being shameless among the princes.

Other princes are busy fighting and forming cliques, but you are busy making money every day. The key is that you haven't made any money yet.

The emperor's mother was not of high rank, and her family was not very prominent and had long been in decline, so when he was a prince, he was the poorest and most neglected prince.

While other princes were busy forming cliques and framing each other, he was thinking every day about how to make money, make his life better, and most importantly, get married.

However, it was precisely because of this that he later caught the attention of the late emperor.

The late emperor thought that his other sons were all deep-minded and vicious, but this one cried the most sadly when he was sick.

But in fact, the emperor, who was still a prince at the time, didn’t really think so much, and he didn’t have any feelings for the late emperor.

As for why he cried so sadly, it was because if the late emperor was still alive, he would be able to get some money from his old father and his life would not be too bad.

If my father died and other brothers succeeded to the throne, life would become even more difficult.

Moreover, the ministers in the court were tired of fighting each other, and when they saw how frugal he was, they all thought he was a good emperor and inexplicably stood on his side.

To be honest, the emperor was quite confused when so many people took sides with him. He was frugal simply because he had no money!

I didn’t expect that he would still be so poor after becoming emperor!

Looking at the emperor who was gradually collapsing, Eunuch Li kindly advised: "Your Majesty, don't be so angry. This is not a shameful thing. Besides, this is something you did when you were young. Who hasn't done one or two strange things when they were young?"

Emperor Xuande snorted. He was indeed young and frivolous, but he was also really steady now. (At least he thought so.)

"How are the preparations for the Queen's Thousand Years Banquet going? We will leave for the palace in the suburbs in two days. Are the concubines in the harem ready?"

The Queen’s birthday is also a big event, which cannot be taken lightly. The most important thing is that she can receive lots and lots of gifts!

Every year, the gifts the Queen receives are more and more precious than his. Every year, the gifts given to him are either tokens of love or gifts of talent, but the gifts given to the Queen are all real gold and silver!

The emperor didn’t know what those people were thinking. This was clearly discriminatory treatment!

"Your Majesty, everything has been prepared, and all the ministers have been asked to bring their families with them. Does Lord Xiaolin need extra attention?"

This little ancestor is of utmost importance, but the gift she prepared for the queen is indeed very curious, and it has not been revealed yet.

When Emperor Xuande thought of the dark face in his memory, he suddenly felt a little pain in his temple.

He waved his hands irritably and said, "No need. What could possibly happen to this little girl is just a sideshow. Even if she is in danger, it is someone else's danger. We don't need to worry about it."

Now this girl's reputation is so terrifying in the capital that people with something to hide basically avoid her, and those who have nothing to hide are afraid that their embarrassing private deeds will be exposed.

At this moment, Lin Mo and Bai Xiao were staring in a daze at the black phoenix that they were going to give to the queen.

Bai Xiao looked at the black phoenix and asked a question seriously, "Do you think this phoenix really looks like a phoenix? Why does it look so much like a black chicken?"

It was originally carved to be particularly fat, like a big rooster, and now it is painted so black.

Besides, don’t we have black jade? Wouldn’t it be better to just use black jade for carving? Why paint the white jade black?

"Why don't you use black jade to carve it? It would be easier this way."

Lin Mo sighed and said, "How could I have known that something like this would happen? Besides, I didn't want to paint it black in the first place. I wanted to paint a colorful phoenix, so of course I couldn't use black jade."

After she finished speaking, she rubbed her face and said, "The color on my face has faded a little, but it should be back to normal soon. I hope it will be whiter by the time of the Qianqiu Banquet."

She had a gloomy face during this period and almost forgot what her handsome face looked like. Every day she could only look at her father's face with envy.

There's nothing she can do. Daddy's face is at least 80% similar to hers. Her own face is no longer presentable, so she can only appreciate her former beauty by looking at Daddy's face.

(Minister Lin: ...Are you polite?)

On the day of departure for the temporary palace, the people in the capital were also beaming with joy, because the emperor had issued many decrees that were beneficial to the people. Such good things would happen every year on the queen's birthday.

Anyway, the people all know that the emperor and the empress are deeply in love, so this is also beneficial to the prince, although the position of the prince is already very stable (although the other two idiots don't want to grab it).

Lin Mo stayed beside his father early in the morning and refused to leave even if he was beaten to death.

Minister Lin looked at the dark face next to him helplessly and said, "Can't you and Xiaobai go play somewhere else?"

I don’t know what’s wrong with this girl. As soon as she went out today, she stuck to him like a follower.

Lin Mo shook his head: "No, no, I have to take precautions!"

Take precautions before they happen? What does this mean? There seems to be something fishy about this sentence.

Everyone looked over quietly, but after Lin Mo said this, he closed his mouth and even his mental activities stopped.

Bai Xiao happily ate while walking, and directly occupied Lin Mo's pig chariot.

When they got home, Lin Mo suddenly asked Bai Xiao in his heart: [It’s coming soon, right? ]

Bai Xiao: [This is almost the location. The people on the mountain have already set up an ambush.]

Everyone: ??? What are you guys talking about?

The Queen and the concubines couldn't help but stick their heads out to look. They had long been curious about this Lord Xiaolin, and they had also heard that this Lord Xiaolin looked very similar to Minister Lin.

When they saw this black face today, they were disappointed.

In the confusion of everyone, Lin Mo finally spoke again: [Why is my father so popular? There is actually a female king who wants to snatch him away to be her husband? He already has a son and a daughter. Can't this female mountain king snatch a younger one, like me? ]

Everyone: What nonsense are you talking about!

Everyone was quite shocked when they heard the first half, but they were speechless when they heard the second half. Couldn't they be serious for just one second?
