The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 33

In the courtyard, the sound of dancing and music reappeared, but Zhao Yanxun's mood was already destroyed.

"My lord, when my concubine was in her boudoir, I heard my father and brother mention that Zhou Chengping, an official who came out of the imperial examination on the way, always has a bit of a scholarly spirit... My father and brother were often impeached by them!"

Seeing that Zhao Yanxun didn't speak, Xue Baoyun continued: "At that time, I asked my father and brother how to deal with this situation!"

"Father told me to just ignore it. We can't keep getting angry when they are angry. It's not worthwhile to be angry!"

Being reprimanded, Zhao Yanxun was naturally in a bad mood, but if he was so angry, it didn't exist.

With the system in his body and the identity of the protagonist of Destiny, Zhao Yanxun is not so narrow-minded.

He picked up the wine glass and said to Xue Baoyun: "Princess, didn't you scare you just now?"

Before Xue Baojun answered, Huang Rongrong on the side muttered: "My lord, you scared my concubine just now!"

Xue Baoyun did not speak. She was indeed frightened just now, and she was not lightly frightened.

It's just that she needs to be tougher, so she can bite the bullet and persuade her. This is also the duty of a princess.

"Come here, clean up the things on the table!" Xue Baoyun told the maid.

Just now Zhao Yanxun slapped the table, and the cups and plates on the table were messed up.

What puzzled Xue Baoyun was how could her husband be so powerful, he didn't look like a prince who grew up in the deep palace at all.

His Xue family is a family of honorable princes, so he can be regarded as a family of martial arts. Those brothers in the family who are struggling with strength are not so vigorous at this age!
Could it be that the husband is hiding something?Already have a plan in the dark, find another way to return to the center?

Perhaps the purpose of calling Wuyue today is to have a confrontation with Zhou Chengping, and then kick this ignorant guy away?

Xue Baoyun's logic was self-consistent, and at this moment she was indeed a little worried, whether she just let Guan Hetai persuade Zhou Chengping, whether she had ruined her husband's plan.

But seeing that Zhao Yanxun seemed to be fine at the moment, Xue Baoyun's uneasy heart calmed down.

On the other side, when Guan Hetai found Zhou Chengping, the latter was already packing his clothes.

"Brother Zhou, why are you doing this..." Entering the room, Guan Hetai put the official hat on the table.

Zhou Chengping ignored it, but continued to pack his belongings.

"Prince Yong is the emperor's favorite prince, and his mother and concubine are also the concubine Duan who is especially favored. His Highness has been doted on for more than ten years, so it's normal for his personality to be a bit out of character!"

After carefully thinking about the sentence and confirming that there were no mistakes, Guan Hetai then continued: "When I was in the capital, the princes in the court persuaded me, and the emperor and concubine Duan would make King Yong restrain himself..."

"But now that he is out of the capital, without the suppression he had in the capital, King Yong's natural release...is understandable!"

Hearing these words, Zhou Chengping stopped what he was doing, and said with a sneer: "After all, King Yong was right...but I was wrong!"

Guan Hetai sat on the chair, turned his head to face Zhou Chengping and said, "I didn't say that... No one in this palace will say that you are wrong, not even His Royal Highness King Yong!"

In fact, Guan Hetai's devotion to retain Zhou Chengping was also out of his own interests.

Whether they want to admit it or not, they are now a whole with Prince Yong's Mansion. If Zhou Chengping is allowed to make things worse, then Guan Hetai will also be jointly and severally responsible.

Zhou Chengping was a noble man, and he would risk everything to protect the court etiquette, but Guan Hetai no longer had these thoughts.

After decades of studying in the capital, Guan Hetai's spirit has long been smoothed out.

The idea of ​​leaving a name in history and ranking in the center is long gone forever.

Now he just wants to bring his family, live a good life with Prince Yong's Mansion, and do his best to educate his son to become a talent.

But what Zhou Chengping is doing now will destroy the tranquility that Guan Hetai seeks, so he came to stop it.

At this moment, I heard a young servant outside the door complaining: "Master, Madam and the others sent the younger ones to ask why it is so late to pack up!"

This is the servant of the Zhou family, Guan Hetai was stunned when he heard that, Zhou Chengping really planned to leave!

"Go back and tell your wife that Mr. Zhou is drunk and tell him not to take it seriously..."

"This..." The boy looked troubled, after all Zhou Chengping hadn't spoken yet.

I saw Guan Hetai put on a straight face and scolded: "Hurry up!"

Zhou Chengping didn't agree with this, and immediately wanted to call back the boy, but was interrupted by Guan Hetai.

"Old Zhou, even if you want to leave... don't rush it for a while. After all, you and I are together, so we have to have a farewell drink!"

It was getting late at this moment, and it was definitely impossible to leave, because it was easy to cause accidents in the dark.

Being pulled by Guan Hetai, Zhou Chengping half-pushed and went to Guan Hetai's residence together.

A table of banquets had already been set up, which was prepared by Guan Hetai from the very beginning.

This time with Zhao Yanxun, Guan Hetai brought the whole family with him, obviously planning to provide for the elderly.

After the two sat down, Guan Hetai dismissed the servant girl and filled Zhou Chengping's wine glass himself.

At this moment, a bright moon hangs high in the sky, Guan Hetai held up his wine glass, respectfully said to Zhou Chengping: "Brother Zhou... Come!"

Although Zhou Chengping was still angry, he still picked up his wine glass and said, "Drinking this glass of farewell wine will not be in vain between you and me..."

But before he finished speaking, Guan and Tai clinked glasses, and then drank them down in one gulp.

Putting down the wine glass, Guan Hetai said: "Brother Zhou, how old are you and I? Why are you still acting like a stupefied young man, always throwing down picks!"

"Prince Yong's nature is not bad, otherwise he wouldn't be sympathetic to his subordinates, let the entourage stop to rest, and he wouldn't use the palace's inventory to distribute food and meat to the people below!"

"Do you agree with this one?"

Zhou Chengping didn't speak, but he still reluctantly agreed with Guan Hetai's words.

Guessing Zhou Chengping's thoughts, Guan Hetai continued: "Your Highness is just being a bit stubborn, the vassal king who came out of the palace, who didn't let go of his nature at first?"

"But as long as the nature is not bad, it is excellent. As long as it is guided by the way of a sage, let alone becoming a virtuous king in the future, it will not be so bad!"

Speaking of this, Guan Hetai once again filled Zhou Chengping's glass with wine: "So, the critical moment to determine His Highness's temperament is now when you take on the important task of supporting and teaching. generation?"

"Let's not say that you will be ridiculed by Shi Lin. If you leave and no one restrains your highness, and finally becomes the faint king you call, how can you be worthy of the people of the feudal domain and the emperor's great trust?"

Good guy, what Guan and Tai fought was a set of combined punches, which left Zhou Chengping speechless at all.

And after hearing Guan Hetai's words, Zhou Chengping also slowly calmed down the thought of leaving, he was indeed a little impulsive just now.

"The emperor trusts you, so he entrusts you with the important task of supervising King Yong. How can you live up to the emperor's trust?"

After Guan Hetai had finished speaking, he was waiting for Zhou Chengping's response.

After a long time, Zhou Chengping sighed and said: "Brother Guan, you have been taught!"

"Hey... that's right!" Guan Hetai smiled.

"Yong Wang's young mind, I don't know how much trouble it will cause in the future, you have to sharpen your mind, don't say anything about leaving!" Guan Hetai raised his glass and said.

After some reflection, Zhou Chengping realized that he had many deficiencies, so he said, "In the future...you and I will encourage each other!"
