It would be nice if the emperor was here now

The court meeting ended and the court was dismissed. Except for Song Ge who was still worrying about His Majesty's harem, the rest of the veterans were satisfied with His Majesty Zhun Zhong's invitation.

Zhang Yushi patted Elder Song on the shoulder, comforting him: "Elder Ge, don't worry too much, there is no rush for your Majesty's harem."

Elder Song Ge sighed sadly: "It's a pity that there is no elder in the palace who can worry about these things for him."

When the first emperor was in power, the Empress Zhonggong passed away in the third year of the first emperor, and the empress dowager also passed away soon after.If it weren't for this, the first emperor would not have been so absurd later on.

Old Madam Zhong said, "Isn't Princess Hualing still there?"

One word awakened the dreamer, Song Ge Lao slapped his thigh, "Why didn't I think of it before!"

Princess Hualing is the youngest sister of the first emperor, and she is the emperor's aunt in terms of seniority. After all, she is now the only elder who has a good relationship with the emperor in Shangjing.Song Ge didn't think of her before, it was because she was low-key, especially after the new emperor ascended the throne, she seldom appeared in front of people.

Thinking of this, Elder Song Ge became worried again: "Princess Hualing's temper, I'm afraid she may not be willing to come forward. If she refuses to come forward, who else in the court can persuade the emperor, alas..."

Zhang Yushi frowned: "What are you talking about?"

Elder Song Ge thought that he had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "I'm not saying that the emperor refuses to accept advice, I naturally know that the emperor is wise."

Zhang Yushi didn't mean that, he said: "Where do you put His Highness King Qin?"

Elder Song Ge: "!!"

suddenly see the light!

Everyone in the court knew that when His Majesty was still the crown prince, Xie Yuanshi, the heir of the Qin Dynasty at that time, was his companion. Since he was six years old, he ate and lived with the crown prince, and they had a very deep relationship.

Especially these veterans, they know how much the emperor loves the king of Qin, although the emperor is advised by Zhang Yushi from time to time to pay more attention to the body of the king of Qin.

But the emperor's trust and preference for His Royal Highness King Qin are obvious to all. It is precisely because of the emperor's love for King Qin that Zhang Yushi dared to say such words in front of the emperor.

If even His Royal Highness the King of Qin can't talk about the emperor, then no one in this world can talk about it.

Song Ge's brows were filled with joy, and he thanked again and again: "Thank you, Brother Gu Qing, for your guidance!"

Turning his head to thank Mrs. Zhong again, he planned to go to Princess Hualing first, and then King Qin.

After bidding farewell to his two colleagues, Mr. Song Ge continued his plan of admonition without stopping.

The courtiers all left, and Xie Yuanshi stayed behind to follow Shen Yuzhu. Thinking of Mrs. Zhong's exaggerated request, Xie Yuanshi had a headache even if he was not sick.

Shen Yuzhu looked at his expression: "Is there really something uncomfortable?"

Xie Yuanshi supported his forehead: "Why did your majesty agree with what Mrs. Zhong said?"

"What Mrs. Zhong said is reasonable, why not?"

Xie Yuanshi was speechless, and expressed doubts with his eyes, "Really? Isn't it because Zhang Yushi wants to speak out to you again?"

"There is a part of the reason," Shen Yuzhu added after finishing speaking: "A small part."

"Last night, I told you that this is not the first time Zhang Yushi said this. If you hadn't stopped him in time, with his eloquence, he could have scolded me for an hour without stopping. He was from Yonglin. The number one scholar in the top three, famous for his eloquence, "

Shen Yuzhu is the emperor, so he still has to save some face at the court meeting. Xie Yuanshi didn't mention Zhang Yushi, "Then you can't just be so sure, you can be sure that I won't go to court when I'm sick." No need to go to court in the morning, and have to wait in the afternoon if something happens Calling him alone to discuss, the emperor did not see such a great privilege.

Shen Yuzhu asked back: "Isn't it right not to go to court when you are sick?"

Since it is what should be considered a reward, of course it is special, that is what Shen Yuzhu thought in his heart, and he guessed that Old Madam Zhong also thought the same in his heart.

Xie Yuanshi sighed: "Forget it, Mrs. Zhong and Zhang Yushi are both veterans of the two dynasties, so they will follow you around anyway."

"Don't they care about you too?"

Xie Yuanshi: "I've never seen them like this before."

Shen Yuzhu looked at him with gentle eyes, it was because you don't remember some things, but they and I still remember.

"What are you worried about in Yuanshi?" Shen Yuzhu asked with a smile, "Worried about rumors from the outside world?"

"In Shangjing, who doesn't know that I am biased, even if it is spread out, what will it look like if it is passed on? Will you be passed on as a treacherous minister who covers the sky and deceives the gods? If this is the case, I don't need to say, Mr. Zhong and the others must be the first!" One has to jump out and clarify."

Xie Yuanshi glanced at him: "Where am I worried about this? I was only a idler in the court, and I could complain that I would not come when I had nothing to do. If I didn't come now, wouldn't I be arrogant?"

In order to avoid losing his tongue, he has to be more diligent, and he can only wait for everyone to forget about it after a while before being lazy.

Shen Yuzhu was surprised: "Pride and pride? Isn't that just right?"

"What's right?" Xie Yuanshi didn't follow his thoughts for a moment.

"It just so happened that you said that when I became the emperor, you would use my name to walk sideways in the capital, didn't you realize this?"

Xie Yuanshi: "Why do you even remember this?"

He seemed to have said something like this when he was the prince's companion, but wasn't that nonsense when he was young and ignorant!How can this be true?

I don't know if I should praise him for having a good memory.

Shen Yuzhu squeezed his face: "You are still talking about me, I haven't settled the score with you yet, Zhang Yushi told the court that when the two of us enjoyed the snow yesterday, you still secretly laughed at me, don't think I didn't See, I'm so sad, you must make it up to me this time."

Xie Yuanshi blinked, trying to get away with it: "I didn't, you must have read it wrong."

Looking at each other for a few seconds, Xie Yuanshi gently turned his head away, with a slight smile on his lips: "Okay, what compensation do you want?"

Shen Yuzhu raised his eyebrows: "Really?"

Xie Yuanshi nodded with a smile: "Really."

"Then I have to think about it."

Xie Yuanshi wrote in the study for two full days after returning home, finishing the compensation Shen Yuzhu wanted - ten pages of copybooks.

Obviously Shen Yuzhu's own handwriting is already very good.

But speaking of it, Shen Yuzhu also wrote copybooks for Xie Yuanshi when he was the prince's companion.That should have been when I was very young.

The old king of Qin had done a lot of military exploits throughout his life, and he was the only general who was named a king with a different surname for his military exploits during the reign of the late emperor.When Qin Wangfei was pregnant with him, she followed Qin Wang to fight at the border. The sky was full of yellow sand, and she suffered a lot during her pregnancy.

It is said that Xie Yuanshi didn't even cry when he was born, and his congenital deficiencies made him weaker than his peers since he was a child.

The old king of Qin had always felt guilty towards him, but at that time the war was so busy that the old king of Qin didn't even have time to take care of his wife, so he only arranged the princess and Xie Yuanshi together in a border town.

The concubine wanted to find a teacher for Xie Yuanshi, but it was not easy to find a good teacher at the border. In addition, Xie Yuanshi was only five or six years old, just the age he loved to play, and he was often sick every day, so his homework was really messed up.

Soon after, the concubine became pregnant with her younger sister, and she was unable to take care of Xie Yuanshi. King Qin decided to send Xie Yuanshi back to the capital. The late emperor was not as stupid as he was later. Seeing that the child was pitiful, he brought him into the palace and became the prince's companion. Read, eat and live with the prince.

Shen Yuzhu was three years older than him, and was born as a prince. He grew up in the palace since he was a child. No matter his words, deeds, or studies, he followed the strictest standards. In contrast, the gap was obvious.

But he has always been very patient and careful with Xie Yuanshi. Every time he saw him drooping and frustrated because of Mr. Zhong's criticism of his ugly handwriting, he would always copy it carefully every time he learned a new article. Leave it to him to make a copybook.

Xie Yuanshi turned out a sandalwood box carved with plain patterns from the bookcase. There were traces of smoke and fire on the outside of the box, but it was not damaged.The corners of several pages of the copybooks inside were burnt, and there were slightly green handwriting on them.

Xie Yuanshi stroked the paper with his fingertips, and there were still ink stains on it when he copied it. Although Shen Yuzhu's handwriting at that time was far from the handsome and elegant style now, every word was written extremely seriously.

Xie Yuanshi's current handwriting is no longer the way old Mrs. Zhong couldn't even read it.

"Master? Master?"

Xia Pei popped his head out of the window of the study and looked inward. He accidentally knocked down a vase of flower arrangements placed by the window sill. Fortunately, he had quick eyes and hands to help him in time. However, some water was sprinkled on the desk. He wiped it carelessly with his sleeve and rearranged the vase.

"master?"

Xie Yuanshi unhurriedly closed the box containing the copybooks, put them back in the bookcase and put them away, and put together the copied copies that had just been copied to dry, then he looked up at the window lying on the window like a hanging ornament. Xia Pei beside him said calmly, "What are you doing? Why are you so reckless?"

Xia Pei scratched his head: "Uncle Liu said that someone handed the greeting card and brought a generous gift to ask for an interview. Let me bring the greeting card and gift list and ask if you can see me."

"Bring it to me."

Xia Pei raised his leg and was about to turn over the window, Xie Yuanshi added without looking sideways: "Go through the door."

"Oh." Xia Pei put down her legs obediently, pushed in through the door, and handed the gift list and invitation to Xie Yuanshi.

Xie Yuanshi unfolded the greeting card, the visitor was unexpected but not surprising to him, old Song Liang from the cabinet.

Song Ge's status was very high, and he didn't bring a greeting card when he came to his house, but looking at his long gift list and thinking about what he has been doing recently, it is not difficult for Xie Yuanshi to understand.

Elder Song Ge has already found him here because of the vacancy of the emperor's harem?

If it was really for this matter, he came this time to ask him to help persuade the emperor, Xie Yuanshi thought for a while.

Xia Pei stared curiously at the pages on the table that Xie Yuanshi had sorted out: "What is this? Master, why are you copying the Book of Songs? Have you been writing this in the study these two days?"

Xia Pei is already used to it. Xie Yuanshi doesn't answer every nagging question he asks, but he still likes to mutter to himself in front of Xie Yuanshi: "Master's handwriting is so beautiful, and I can write as beautifully as my master anytime."

Xie Yuanshi knocked Xia Pei on the head with the greeting card and the gift list, and said without emotion: "Practice more and be less lazy."

"Go and tell Uncle Liu to bring Mr. Song Ge to the main hall, and I'll go change my clothes."

"okay."

Xia Pei looked at Xie Yuanshi's back and patted his head.

Although the master only looked more human when he was with the emperor, and he always looked calm and indifferent, but just for a moment, Xia Pei felt that he seemed a little sad.

It would be great if the emperor was here now.
