Overwhelming mountains and rivers

Although the forced kiss seemed to be over like this, Chu Xuanzhao still clearly felt that Shen Qingjun's evasion and resistance to him became more serious, and he always spoke politely and kept his distance.

This made him very distressed.

But what is gratifying is that, after a combination of hard and soft tactics, he finally got his wish, and hung the plaque of "Yazhuxuan" back next to Jinxi Pavilion again.

Chu Xuanxin and Li Shangnuo who heard this matter were quite surprised.

Chu Xuanxin was surprised because he knew the situation of the two of them, and he also knew why Shen Qingjun moved away in the first place. He didn't expect his brother to really let him come back.

Li Shangnuo didn't know that Shen Qingjun had lived in the palace from the beginning, so he was very surprised that he moved into the palace.

…………

In the study, Chu Xuanxin looked out through the window, "Brother, if you are busy, go out, you have looked at this window several times."

"He gave repeated orders, not allowing me to enter Yazhuxuan casually."

Chu Xuanxin was a little puzzled, "Brother, I don't know if it's an illusion, why do I feel that Mr. Mo Yuan has moved back, but why does he seem to be more distant from you?"

He seldom heard Mr. Mo Yuan talk about "Prince" before.

The two of them didn't eat together when they were in the palace. Now Mr. Mo Yuan ordered his servants to send the meals directly to Yazhuxuan.

Chu Xuanzhao knew that Shen Qingjun didn't like to stay in the room, so he ordered people to clean up all the front and back yards, and put some couches, cups and cups in the pavilion and corridor.

However, Shen Qingjun still seldom shows up in front of Chu Xuanzhao.

Chu Xuanzhao sighed, "Isn't it alienated?"

Blame myself for being impulsive.

"What's the matter with you? Also, since he is alienated from you, how did you let him move back to the palace?"

Of course Chu Xuanzhao was unwilling to tell about the onset of Shen Qingjun's cold, even if that person was Chu Xuanxin.

"I smashed his door."

"Huh?" Chu Xuanxin was a little confused.

So you moved back?

Chu Xuanxin turned the brush in his hand upside down and tapped it on the table, "Then you are at a loss. If he can move back in this way, why are you breaking his door now, alas~"

Chu Xuanzhao murmured, "Yeah, why did I break his door now."

If he had gone earlier, Shen Qingjun would not have suffered so much.

Fortunately, it's okay, otherwise, he wouldn't even dare to think about the result of "otherwise".

He didn't know why Shen Qingjun had another attack of cold syndrome in less than a year, and he said that before he went, he had used the detoxification pill. In the past, the first attack was not serious, and the detoxification pill could suppress it, but this time it was only slightly relieved. It has slowed down, and this time the first attack is not as relatively mild as the previous first attack.

Maybe it had something to do with the off-season cold rain this time, maybe it was something else, but Chu Xuanzhao knew that he couldn't wait any longer.

The whereabouts of Chi Yanzhu must be found out as soon as possible.

He has not stopped to search the building, but so far he can only confirm that it is in Tuojia's royal family, and it seems to be regarded as a national treasure by Tuojia.

No matter how specific, he didn't know.

war!No matter what, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must find it.

……

Chu Xuanxin flipped through the things in his hands, and sighed, "This time several high-ranking officials have been dismissed. The incident happened suddenly, and the officials were transferred to Chi Gen. Many positions were temporarily filled by lower-ranking officials. Some of them were remote, such as this one. Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, after half a year has passed by the time the new official takes office, it is better to directly promote the local officials."

Chu Xuanzhao sat on the other side of the table and sighed helplessly, "Before I acted, I had secretly mobilized officials as much as possible to minimize the omissions, but after all, my power is limited and Chu Xuanqing is watching I was afraid that he would get suspicious beforehand, so I didn't dare to overdo it."

"I understand that you have tried your best, but there are not enough people available in the court now. The prime minister and the two old ministers he met did their best. It’s inevitable that it’s a bit daunting to do it. Besides, even if they can use it, how many more years can they do it? There is no successor.”

"I've thought about this too, but I'm just not in a hurry." Chu Xuanzhao was also a little worried about this matter. The so-called lack is better than abuse, officials are deposed, and many positions are left vacant, but he can't bear it because of this, and don't pull those people down. .

Chu Xuanxin put down his pen, "I mean, it would be great if Enke could be opened again. Although the court rule is once every three years, I think this matter still depends on the needs of the court. The rules are dead. People are alive."

Chu Xuanzhao smiled and shook his head slightly, "You are thinking more simply. Do you think that ordering the opening of Enke will bring scholars from all over the world together? Why is the imperial examination held every three years? The provincial examination, general examination, government examination, Doesn’t it take time to go down one by one? Since you know that it will take half a year for the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi to take office from Beijing, how can you come to Beijing if you are a student from Guangdong and Guangxi?”

Seeing him resting his chin, Chu Xuanzhao seemed to have listened, and then he said, "The result of rushing to start the course is chaos. The courtiers took the opportunity to disturb the court, and made the original good things into a mess. At that time, we can't do it at all." Guarantee that the students admitted by the opening department are what we really want."

Chu Xuanxin was a little frustrated, "I really took this matter for granted."

Chu Xuanzhao stretched out his arm across the table and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be too hasty, take your time."

Chu Xuanzhao didn't dare to hit him too hard, and he didn't say anything about some problems, so what if he started the course smoothly?When a student comes out, even if he learns a lot more, he can't use it directly if he doesn't have the experience of being an official. He still needs to sharpen it, just like Lu Wenkai.Talented people may not necessarily be able to be good officials. He has seen many people who passed the imperial examination, and their poetry, music, and Fu are all as good as others, but they just can't be officials.

"Oh~, I'm not in a hurry, I just look at these vacancies, from my eyes to my heart, I don't have much energy."

Chu Xuanzhao smiled, "That's why you are bothering mediocrity. Sigh, why do you look like an old man at such a young age?"

Chu Xuanxin's face drooped, "I'll say it again, I'm not young anymore."

"Okay, you're not young anymore."

Chu Xuanxin pouted, "Looking at your expression, you can tell that you didn't take my words to heart."

Chu Xuanxin stood up, brushed off her clothes, and looked out the window, "Let's go here today, I know you are busy, and I don't want to be a villain."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Chu Xuanzhao clenched his fists and stood up, "Xuan Xin."

"What's wrong?" Chu Xuanxin looked back in doubt.

"Concubine Miao is pregnant, and my father ordered that on the fifteenth day of this month, a palace banquet will be held in Xingqing Palace. I want the concubine and the prince to attend the banquet together."

Chu Xuanxin sneered, "Oh, really."

Concubine, prince, even though Chu Xuanzhao didn't say "everything", Chu Xuanxin still guessed the meaning of the will.

Chu Xuanzhao said softly, "Don't forget."

"What are you doing to me?"

"You go to the banquet with me."

"No. I haven't received the decree, so I don't know about it. Brother, just pretend you didn't say it today." After saying that, he turned his head and left.

Chu Xuanzhao stepped forward and grabbed his arm, "Don't be self-willed. I know you feel uncomfortable, but if others don't treat you as a prince, you can't treat yourself as a prince."

"I do not have."

"If you don't go to the royal palace banquet, the emperor will not pay attention to it, and you will be happy, but have you thought about the consequences? The palace banquet is not a secret matter. If it is reported to the court, do you want to let it go?" Do all the ministers know that you are not treated as a prince? How will you gain a foothold in the court in the future?"

Chu Xuanxin broke away from his hand, feeling suddenly agitated, "Didn't the ministers already understand it? But what if it is clear? Do they dare? If I don't get treated again, I am also the prince. Do they dare to laugh at me? See When it comes to me, don't you still have to be respectful and respectful, kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times?!"

"Yes! They don't dare, because there is a difference in honor and inferiority, and they have to take care of their own heads! But don't you dare on the face, don't you dare in your heart? Didn't you vow to learn government affairs and gain a foothold in the court? Don't you want Let them all chew your tongue behind your back and trample your reputation?"

"Let them chew it! Don't be afraid of choking if you dare to chew! Anyway, I won't go."

Chu Xuanzhao took a breath, and tried to slow down his tone, "Be obedient, you still have to be patient, don't lose your sense of proportion in this kind of thing, okay?"

Chu Xuanxin's eyes turned red, "I can't bear it."

Chu Xuanzhao sighed, "I won't ask you today, you should think about it and give me an answer tomorrow."

…………

"Feng Er."

Shen Qingjun moved back to the palace, and Feng Er was assigned by Chu Xuanzhao to be in charge of his daily life.

"Sir?"

Feng Er already knew about Chu Xuanzhao's love for Shen Qingjun that day, now when he sees Shen Qingjun, he always feels like he doesn't know where to put his eyes.

The prince will be jealous, Shen Qingjun has felt this since he just returned home.

At that time, Chu Xuanzhao ordered several servants to carry things for Shen Qingjun, and when he came back to report, because of Shen Qingjun's appearance, the servants couldn't help being stunned when they looked up, but Chu Xuanzhao turned black on the spot and beat the servants out.

The prince's appearance is considered handsome, and he has made people stunned at first sight, but when he himself was stared at, he never got angry like that.

"What are your princes arguing about?" Shen Qingjun has developed five senses since he was a child, and because he was the master of Chenyin Pavilion, he has practiced deliberately, so when he stayed in Yazhuxuan, he heard the faint quarrels coming from the study.

"Noisy? This, the subordinate does not know. Or, the subordinate should go and ask..."

"No, I'm just asking casually, you go down."

…………

Early the next morning, Chu Xuanxin came to Prince Xin's Mansion early, and the first thing he said when he opened the door was, "I'll go".

Chu Xuanzhao seemed to have expected it, and smiled knowingly.

As his younger brother, he knows that even though he can't bear it sometimes, he is still rational in the end, and when he responds to the situation, he is actually clear about it, but sometimes, when things are in a hurry, and when they catch up, he will be unable to get through for a while.

…………

A few days later, Zhu Qing and Bi Yuan came back from Jiangnan and brought green bamboos with them.

Chu Xuanzhao was not easy to ask, so he directly asked them to meet Shen Qingjun.

"Pavilion Master, Zhu Qing/Bi Yuan has met the Pavilion Master."

"How's the matter going?" Shen Qingjun saw the red-eyed green bamboo behind Zhu Qing who was sobbing and unable to speak.

"The matter has been settled, it's Qingzhu, and I insist on coming to the capital." Zhu Qing pulled Qingzhu to her body, "Aren't you crying and crying to see the young master, why don't you even know how to greet him now?"

"My lord... Qingzhu has seen you before." Qingzhu suffocated and finished speaking, but finally couldn't hold back, a bean-sized teardrop slid down.

Shen Qingjun also probably thought of what was going on, when he left Yuyuan, he asked Qingzhu to go back to Yumang Mountain, but Qingzhu had been with him since he could remember, and they were separated suddenly for nearly half a year, I'm afraid it would be uncomfortable.

"Since you're here, just stay."

Qing Zhu burst into tears immediately and laughed, he thought he was going to beg Young Master, so he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Yes, Qing Zhu will definitely serve Young Master well, Young Master, please don't drive Qing Zhu away."

"Get up quickly, go on a long journey, and go take a rest." Shen Qingjun called Feng Er outside, Feng Er hurried in, Shen Qingjun pointed to the green bamboo, "This is my boy when I was in Jiangnan. I will stay in the mansion, and the manager will arrange one or two."

Feng Er hurriedly bowed his head, "Don't dare, the young master has just ordered it, why dare to accept the word of labor. Don't worry, young master, the subordinates will definitely arrange it properly."

……

Shen Qingjun waited for Feng Er to lead the green bamboo down, then he spoke to Zhu Qing and Bi Yuan, "Tell me."

Bi Yuan cupped her hands, "Yes. As the Pavilion Master expected, Manager Hu was indeed going to rebel. We followed the Pavilion Master's orders and sneaked back into the pavilion all the way, catching him by surprise. He took advantage of the Pavilion Master and me and Ah Qing's absence During the past few days, Jiangnan has secretly united with several leaders in the pavilion, and wants to hold the Chenyin Pavilion in his hands. When Ah Qing and I arrive, he is already planning a battle."

Zhu Qing snorted coldly, "This old man really wants to rebel. At the beginning, the pavilion master said he would rebel, but I didn't believe it. In the end, hmph! I don't understand. When the old pavilion master was alive, he had always trusted him. Plus, the pavilion master is not mean to him, why would he do such a thing!"

Shen Qingjun said lightly, "People are not enough."

Things in this world are most afraid of impermanence and unpredictable, and people in this world are most afraid of lack of heart.

Shen Qingjun turned to ask, "What's the result?"

Zhu Qing curled her lips, "Boss Hu was killed by me on the spot. I was going to kill the other troublemakers, but Ah Yuan refused, so I just put them in the dungeon in the end."

"Bi Yuan did a good job."

They are leaders, not alone.Killing them may arouse the resentment of their subordinates, but a proper forgiveness can change their gratitude.

"Pavilion Master!" Zhu Qing stomped her feet reluctantly.

"Qing'er, you are impatient, so listen to Yuan'er's advice more often."

Zhu Qing pouted, "Yes, I understand."

…………

After Zhu Qing and Biyuan left, Chu Xuanzhao came to Yazhuxuan, "Why didn't you tell me about such a big incident in your pavilion?"

Shen Qingjun frowned slightly, a little unhappy, "My lord still has the habit of listening to corners?"

Besides, what is there to tell?After all, Chu Xuanzhao was considered an outsider about his affairs in the pavilion. Moreover, he knew it well when he left Jiangnan.

"I saw them walking in a hurry, and I was a little worried, so I—"

"The business of this pavilion. You don't have to worry about it."

Chu Xuanzhao lowered his eyes, "I see."

The two fell silent again.

After standing for a while, Chu Xuanzhao saw that Shen Qingjun had no intention of letting himself sit down, so he sighed softly, "Your health is better, it's been colder recently, don't be cold. Rest first, I will Come back later."

If it was before, he would just sit down, but after that time, he really didn't dare to be too casual, Shen Qingjun would be angry, really angry.

Chu Xuanzhao walked to the door, and Shen Qingjun's words came to his ears, "Chu Xuanqing has been frustrated a lot, but he has been calm recently. This is not in line with his temperament. You have to be careful in everything." .”

Chu Xuanzhao turned his head to the side, but he didn't turn back completely, "Okay, I understand. Don't think too much, your body is important, at least you have taken care of it for a while."

"Thank you, my lord, for your concern."

Chu Xuanzhao turned around in a hurry, his voice was a little high and sharp, "I don't want you to say thank you!"

Shen Qingjun turned his head and looked elsewhere.

Chu Xuanzhao rubbed his forehead, knowing that he was a little impatient, "I didn't mean it, don't be angry. Rest, if you are bored, go for a walk in the garden."
