The king is not the king, the minister is not the minister

If the wind is like a swan, and the rain falls, the flowers will chase after flowers in March, and the capital of the willow will be smoked.

"Master Yu hasn't been here for a long time." The shopkeeper of the small restaurant said apologetically, "There have been more people in the past few days, and they are all students who came to Beijing to catch the exam. You keep it, my lord."

Yu Zhuo looked at Xia Houzhan, and the latter had no objections, so the two of them sat down at the seat mentioned by the shopkeeper.

"Ah Queh, is your brother here?" When Ah Que was serving the food, Yu Zhuo asked casually.

"Yes, of course it is, do you want me to bring him to meet you?"

Yu Zhuo shook his head and said, "It's okay, there are a lot of people today, so don't let him get lost." After that, Xia Houzhan had already moved his chopsticks, so he was obviously hungry.

"Your Majesty, do you feel that I have been abusing you all day?" Yu Zhuo asked. After a while, the meat and vegetables on the table had bottomed out.

There seemed to be annoyance on Xia Houzhan's face, and after a moment he reluctantly stretched his chopsticks towards the vegetables.

Anyway, Yu Zhuo couldn't hold back his smile.

The man dressed as a scholar at the next table stood up suddenly, and asked loudly, "Candidates here, can someone share their thoughts, maybe some of us may be able to win the exam questions."

The person who asked the question seemed to believe that he could pass the Jinshi examination, so he asked about the content of the palace examination.

"It must be the theory of state governance. What's the suspense about it?"

To be able to take part in the examination is to be a Juren, even in the capital city, it is different from ordinary people, so when this remark comes out, both candidates or those who can read and write must say a few words.

"You can't say that. It is impossible to test everything about governing the country. In my opinion, the topic of the palace examination is the emperor, and it must depend on what the emperor cares about most." The person who started the question said.

"Tell me, what is the emperor most concerned about today?" Someone teased.

Another person interjected: "It must be a naval battle! Now everyone is rumoring that a large ship will be built to go to sea. It is said that the Jianghuai area has already started attracting investment."

"Yes, that's true."

"The emperor wants to fight against Japanese pirates, and also to go to sea for trade. I heard that Western people have strange lives. You will never forget that appearance once you see it."

Yu Zhuo couldn't help smiling, and asked Xia Houzhan who was sitting opposite: "The emperor wants to build a ship and go to sea, I'm afraid the whole capital, no, everyone in the world will know."

"Hengqing, you..."

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything." Yu Zhuo promised.

After Que'er served the last dish, Yu Zhuo quickly introduced: "Try the signature dish here. The imperial dining room in the palace doesn't taste like this either."

The people on the side heard this and asked him with a smile: "Does this brother know what the imperial dining room smells like?"

"I want to know what's so difficult. On the day when the palace examination is released, there will definitely be a Qionglin banquet in the palace. If everyone here has the ability, you can naturally try it." Yu Zhuo said with a light smile.

The person who asked the test questions first answered, "This brother is even more arrogant than me. I wonder if there is any brother in the top three this year?"

"I'm just a person from the middle of the capital. How much does it have to do with me? I'm just here to figure out the holy will with a few people." Yu Zhuo put down his chopsticks and recognized the faces of these people one by one.

"Oh, brother, what guesses do you have?

"Compared to asking about naval battles, it may be easier for the emperor to ask about the power of the monarch and how to balance it."

Xia Houzhan's eyes fell directly on Yu Zhuo's face, and he seemed to speak a little.Sometimes, he even felt that the position of prime minister was unnecessary, and even caused many obstacles to himself.

The delay in establishing the right prime minister is not because there is no candidate, but because he wants to withdraw it directly.

"Haha, this brother is very insightful. It's a pity that half a year ago, the relationship between the king and the prime minister is as good as the newlywed Yaner couple. How could there be such a problem?"

"Huh?" Xia Houzhan raised his head in confusion and looked at Yu Zhuo, who thought that Xia Houzhan must have lost his mind.But those little eyes were very cute, Yu Zhuo was unoccupied for a while, and secretly reached out to put his hand on his waist.

Xia Houzhan immediately lowered his head and whispered, "Have you finished eating? Let's go back."

There are disadvantages of not having a private room, and it is impossible to say whose ears are sharper.Yu Zhuo said a few more polite words to those scholars, then checked out and left.

"Your Majesty, the policy question, what did you say?"

"The two of us went out for an outing and didn't talk about state affairs." Xia Houzhan obviously wanted to avoid the topic again, but Yu Zhuo couldn't guess his little thoughts, and his fingers entangled with him intentionally or unintentionally.

Xia Houzhan's face was very unnatural, so Yu Zhuo added to the flames: "Your Majesty, when will the wedding ceremony be done with the minister?"

In broad daylight, the streets are bustling, and Yu Zhuo asked such words, Xia Houzhan felt his face burning, and ordered in a low voice: "Shut up."

Just in time, the sound of blowing and blowing came from the corner of the street, and a sedan chair was surrounded by people and turned into the street.

"Which family is this getting married?"

"Master Wang, a silk merchant in the west of the city, married the second daughter of the Jiang family to fill in the house."

A passer-by was surprised: "Isn't the master of the Jiang family a high-ranking official? How could he marry his daughter to a businessman? Even if he is a wealthy businessman, he is probably not too young."

Those who knew it looked disdainful: "Second miss, the daughter of a lowly maidservant, is she considered a young lady? In the future, she will have no worries about food and clothing, and she will be the main wife when she goes out. Not bad, at least she is much better than her sister who is a monk."

"Her elder sister is also stupid, and let the prime minister's wife bestowed by the emperor not do it."

"Who knows."

Yu Zhuo found a few passers-by and asked, the person on the sedan chair was really Jiang Ying, and couldn't help but be surprised. He had never mentioned it before, and he was married when he said he was married.

Received Yu Zhuo's questioning gaze, Xia Houzhan quickly clarified: "It has nothing to do with me."

Not paying attention to Xia Houzhan's previous actions, but with a trace of resentment, Yu Zhuo said: "In this world, people who don't love each other can get married. Tell the world, but those who love each other should cover it up."

"Hengqing, let's go back and pray to heaven and earth." Xia Houzhan said.

Yu Zhuo followed Xia Houzhan back to the palace suspiciously, not knowing how to "worship heaven and earth".However, unexpectedly, Xia Houzhan took him directly to a deserted palace hidden behind a rockery.

"here……"

"When I was the prince, I lived here."

At that time, although Xia Houzhan was a legitimate son, but because the Yan family was all over the family, even taking him along did not attract so much attention. None of the eunuchs and maids in the palace believed that he could really ascend to the throne.

Yu Zhuo has been to Xia Houqi's residence several times, and the location is excellent, as soon as he goes out, he can see the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"I've got someone to clean it, let's go in."

There were only the two of them, so Yu Zhuo found flint and lit all the lamps. Unlike the arrangement in Kunyi Palace, everything here has no sense of solemnity at all, but it looks like a warm place for a young couple.

"His Majesty."

"Hengqing, heaven and earth have paid homage, it's time for the bridal chamber." Xia Houzhan said seriously, "Do you want to take a bath first?"

They haven't slept together in the past few days, and Yu Zhuo feels a little itchy when he thinks about it. Except for helping Xia Houzhan vent with his hands that morning, they have never had any other "intimacy".

It was indeed not easy for the two grown men to be squeezed out of the wooden barrel. After stumbling and bathing, the two of them lay down together on the bed. It was still early.

Yu Zhuo kept stroking Xia Houzhan's body with his hands, and the latter squinted his eyes, showing a comfortable expression.

Women definitely don't serve like this. Xia Houzhan is not a troublemaker, so he has very little impression of the sequence, and even "this kind of thing" in his impression is only the two hugging each other.

"His Majesty……"

"Call my name."

"Ziwang, the name is not right, the words are not right, you and I, the monarch and the minister, are you really going to do such a thing?"

"What?" Xia Houzhan asked puzzled.

Thinking of the two little princes, Yu Zhuo denied the possibility that Xia Houzhan didn't understand anything, so it was... Yu Zhuo asked: "Does Ziwang really understand how men behave like Duke Zhou?"

"Huh?" Xia Houzhan had doubts on his face, but he had already put his lips in front of Yu Zhuo.

Xia Houzhan didn't understand why, he just didn't want to hurt the person in front of him.

Turning around, Yu Zhuo leaned on Xia Houzhan's body, his smooth skin pressed against each other tightly, and the thought of never being separated could be born.Yu Zhuo licked his lips, and smiled: "Ziwang, lie down, I'll teach you."
