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

Thanks to Tao's good light recently, and his care is so dark. Nearly a year ago, except for Li Ming, the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, no one came to visit him. Yu Zhuo felt really gratified and congratulated.

Now Xia Houzhan's two princes are still young, and the ministers in the court are as shrewd as cunning rabbits. I am afraid that the wish of traveling the mountains and rivers and seeing the country in the past is still far away.

"This paper is not bad." Yu Zhuo twisted the paper used to paste the window, and said, "But it is too bright for the bedroom. Especially in places like Chenglu Hall, as the saying goes, looking at beauties under the lamp , there is a style."

Xia Houzhan turned elsewhere, pretending not to hear what he was saying.

"I saw Shu brocade tribute silk the day before yesterday, why are none of them gone today?" Yu Zhuo asked, it was strange that there was no brocade among the new tributes that filled the warehouse.

"Most of the tributes today are more elegant and dignified in color and pattern. I have someone take them to make new clothes for you. The rest of the patterns are also for the two boys. They are growing up now. The clothes at the beginning of the year are not big enough at all." Xia Houzhan said, "The rest are good, and I will reward you too."

A lot of tributes are sent to the palace every day, and today's should be the last batch. After the registration, a lot of tributes will be rewarded to the ministers of the court.

"Your Majesty said this, these tributes, what kind of tributes do you despise?"

"You take it all."

Yu Zhuo laughed: "I'm afraid that the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs will be charged with a serious crime in the future-no, this corruption will not be involved in the tributes put into the treasury. Lord Li probably wants to suspect that His Majesty is giving and receiving privately with his ministers. "

"nonsense."

Xiao Dezi went to the farthest corner to register the things in the warehouse, pretending that he was not here.

Turning around, Yu Zhuo didn't see anything worthy of his interest, so he asked Xia Houzhan: "What is there to send to the mother?" The "mother" could not be more fluent.

"The spices and leather jackets that were tribute from the Western Regions were all prepared the day before yesterday." Xia Houzhan didn't care about his title.

On the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, it was snowing heavily, and many ministers delayed the court in the morning.But Yu Zhuo, who hadn't been in court for a long time, suddenly walked in front of the officials, causing them to look at each other and whisper to each other.

The emperor seemed to have expected it a long time ago, a lot of hot tea and porridge were prepared in the side hall, and the fire was booming.

In the side hall, Su Qing was the first to ask, "Is Master Yu cured?"

"Thank you, Mr. Su, for your concern. Your Majesty has invited Imperial Physician Xue to my house, and it is much better now. I have to say that Imperial Physician Xue is a master."

After all, Yu Zhuo rubbed the center of his brows. Since he came back from Lingnan, Imperial Physician Xue has asked for his pulse more frequently than Queen Mother Yan.Xia Houzhan was afraid that something would happen to his head again.

"Mr. Xue's medical skills are naturally among the best in the whole capital." After Su Qing finished speaking, she said goodbye and went to drink hot tea. All of a sudden, the six ministers and the academicians of the Imperial Academy all cast their eyes.

Without waiting for them to come forward, Yu Zhuo walked up to Li Shangshu and said, "Master Li has not seen you for three days. You have lost a lot of weight, but can't you stand the severe cold in the capital?"

Li Ming still hadn't reacted before, but the other ministers immediately heard something unusual from the "no see for three days".Could it be that the Minister of the Household Department followed Yu Zhuo during a visit?

When he was thinking hard, Eunuch Zhao walked into the side hall with two young eunuchs, and announced that all the ministers entered the hall.All the ministers put aside their doubts for the time being and went to court.

"All your lovers are here." Xia Houzhan signaled Eunuch Zhao to read the imperial decree.

All the ministers hadn't figured out what the reason for today was, so they listened to Eunuch Zhao read out the imperial decree and named the eldest prince the crown prince.

After listening, the hall was silent, and after a while, an old scholar asked tremblingly: "How can you be so hasty in setting up the crown prince? Your majesty is a young man, and he will surely have many heirs in the future. I hope your majesty will think twice."

"Continue reading." Xia Houzhan's eyes fell on Yu Zhuo's face.

Since ancient times, there were very few twins in the royal family, and this was a public secret.Because the two are similar in appearance, it is extremely difficult to distinguish them if they are fighting for power.

However, today, the emperor actually adopted the second prince as the Yan family of the previous dynasty, and everyone was shocked.

Yu Zhuo said helplessly to a few surprised courtiers around him: "Look, today I am here to be a lobbyist for His Majesty. Master Li, Master Liu, do you have anything to say?"

Master Li shook his head and shouted: "Long live my emperor."

However, several sixty-year-old bachelors knelt down on the ground at the same time, shouting: "Your Majesty, think twice!"

Su Qing didn't expect to make such a big fuss, but Eunuch Zhao immediately took out the Chapter 3 decree, and the noise suddenly dropped down, and there was no such thing.

As soon as the third imperial decree was recited, all the ministers were already mentally prepared, so after the recitation of the imperial edict, there was a strange silence.

The matter of Yu Zhuo's appearance in court has been ignored.

To let the unborn concubine out of the palace, for this imperial decree, Yu Zhuo really endured ten days without going to the palace, and used all the 36 tricks.

"Today we only discuss matters other than the imperial decree. All the love ministers have their own instructions, and they will leave the court without incident."

"Your Majesty—this incident is already unbearable, not to mention these three imperial decrees, which cannot be tolerated by the patriarchal clan?"

"If that's the case, then there's nothing to play, and we're going to retreat." Xia Houzhan got up and walked to the apse as soon as he finished speaking.Mr. Zhao's deafening "retirement" brought everyone back to God.

Yu Zhuo grabbed an old official who was about to come forward to ask for a performance, and persuaded him: "Master Liu, do you know why I said I was sick and refused to go to court?"

"Why?" Yu Zhuo was so strong that he really couldn't let go, so he had to listen to him nagging here.

"My lord, do you think these three imperial decrees are just temporary intentions?" Yu Zhuo pretended to regret, "For ten days, I still can't make His Majesty change his mind."

The rest of the courtiers who were listening also showed embarrassment.

Yu Zhuo bowed and left.

Later history records: In the third year of Fengzhen, Emperor Wu established the eldest son as the prince, and the second son adopted the Yan family.

Unofficial history once recorded: During the reign of Emperor Wu, Yu Hengqing threatened not to return to the court for ten days, and persuaded Emperor Wu to withdraw his order, but it failed.At the right time, all the ministers stopped their flags and drums for a while.

In the 13th year of Fengzhen, outside the city gate, the willow color is yellow.

"Hengqing, you have to leave again."

Yu Zhuo said solemnly: "Waiting for the minister to return from the battle in northern Xinjiang—don't miss me too much." The second half of the sentence brought some smiles.

"Half body on the battlefield, half body in court, you still don't trust me."

Xia Houzhan retorted and ripped off his clothes: "Last year, you had a wound on your chest. Thousands of years ago, your left arm was injured. Now you can't use much strength. That time ten years ago really scared me to death."

"Your Majesty is so helpless that you have not yet set out for the battle. How can you repost it in the long night?" Yu Zhuo pulled up his skirt, began to put on his armor, looked at the sky that had not yet dawned, and said, "It's about time to go to court. .”

"It's not like they don't understand."

The ministers in the court naturally knew that whenever Yu Zhuo went to war, the emperor had no intention of governing.In addition, the emperor did not establish a queen or accept concubines, and the ministers who were a little flexible could guess the difference.

"I was able to come back a few years ago. Your Majesty taught the prince to read well, and studied martial arts with Qiruo all day long. Will he be able to conquer in person in the future?" Yu Zhuo babbled.

"I didn't learn it from you, but you are still used to him."

"That's all." Yu Zhuo put on his armor, took him into his arms and pressed him hard, and walked out of the room without further words.

In the 40th year of Fengzhen, Emperor Wu died and Yu died.
