Am I a scumbag?

Huadu, the capital city of Daxia, has never stopped this winter.

Rumors come and go.

For a while it was said that the emperor was dead, for a while it was said that King Lan had rebelled, and for a while it was said that the emperor's younger brother, King Ying, had secretly returned to Beijing.

From this, all kinds of strange little stories are derived, such as the emperor having an illegitimate child with a famous prostitute in the capital, the emperor having an affair with a princess of a foreign race overnight, and the emperor having a deep relationship with the king of Yuelu.

With a nose and an eye, ordinary people have new topics every day after dinner.

With the beginning of spring recently, different news finally came!

Those were all rumors before.

The emperor is very good, and he is in harmony with King Lan and his ministers!

The news first spread from the Ministry of Officials, quickly spread among the officials of various ministries, and soon spread among the people by word of mouth.

Emperor Jinyu is a generation of Mingjun, and King Lan is good at fighting. Both of them have high prestige and are loved by others.The people are very sorry that such a wise ruler and good general have never been at odds.Now that I suddenly heard such a thing, everyone was delighted and overjoyed.

It's just that the story is too good to be true.

Xi Xingjian had a rare rest that day, and when he went to buy Furong Primrose Cake in Xishi, he was grabbed by Primrose Xishi's father: "Master Xi, you came just in time!"

"My lord, come and judge."

"I made a bet with this person. I said Long live the emperor, but he didn't take it seriously. As a result, I lost 25 copper coins to him in Kuling. Now it turns out that I won. He should pay me back fifty copper coins." How should I be punished for reneging on my debts?"

Another person immediately denied it: "I'm not sure yet. I think the so-called harmony between the monarch and his ministers is mostly fake news released by King Lan. It's not like there was no such thing in the previous court. When Chu Han and Liu Zhui were in control of the court..."

Xi Xingjian: "Boldly making trouble for the people."

"King Lan and His Majesty are wise, friendly, and harmonious. There is no room for speculation about the affairs of the Tian family. If you dare to spread rumors and make troubles, you will be arrested by Dali Temple directly. Also, gambling in the capital will be severely punished. Hurry up." Pay back the money!"

"Yes yes yes! Lord Qingtian spare your life, the grass people will never dare again!"

After Xi Xing checked and left, the onlookers said, "Wow, it's been a long time since Master Xi got angry."

"That's right. Although Mr. Xi has a reputation for being strict in judging cases, he himself is approachable. It is rare to see such a righteous and righteous speech."

"Master Xi, did you speak for King Lan just now?"

"Today is really strange! As we all know, Master Xi has always been on His Majesty's side, even though he is related to King Lan. Last year, he quarreled with Su Xu, the head of Wuyiwei, in the teahouse..."

"Even Lord Qingtianxi has personally witnessed the harmony between the monarch and his subjects, how can there be a lie?"

Within an hour, the matter was known to everyone.

Then there are various versions.

"Xi Qing Quan creates rumors", "Dali Temple arrests rumors", "Rumors are executed in the West Market", "Master Qingtian personally sells cakes in the West Market to prove the harmony between the emperor and his ministers"...

Xi Xingjian has always been very popular in the capital because he is handsome, has no airs of being an official, and often goes to the West Market to buy vegetables in person.

The things he has confirmed, the people are all at ease.

For a while, Beijing was full of joy and excitement, like a festival.To celebrate the harmony between the emperor and his ministers, Zhuo's Vinegar Stall and Liao's Liquor Store in West Market also had a half-price promotion for one day, and people who lined up to stock up quickly gathered in a long queue.

The vinegar and wine stalls are booming, but young master Liao of the wine merchant is bickering with Zhuo Ziang, the young master of the vinegar shop next door.

Both of them are on holiday today.

Zhuo Ziang is Wu Yiwei, and after Liao Xiaogong was admitted to the imperial examination, he became a small follower of Xu Zizhen, the director of the Seal Inspection Department of the Ministry of Officials, and naturally became a staunch imperial party.

The imperial party and Wu Yiwei never met each other.

Young Master Liao: "Unless you see it with your own eyes, who will believe in harmony between the monarch and his subjects?"

Zhuo Ziang: I wouldn't believe it even if I saw it with my own eyes.I'm afraid Lan Wang is too soft-hearted and was deceived by the dog emperor!

Young Master Liao: "The powerful officials control the government and cover the sky with one hand!"

Zhuo Ziang: "The dog emperor serves people with sex and sells himself for glory!"

Young Master Liao: "Oh, are you so funny? No matter how handsome my Majesty is, he can't compare to you, King Lan, who has to cover his face with half a mask when he goes to fight. After the fight, everyone in Beimo will know that he is good-looking! If there is such a thing, Yiser's servant sells himself for glory, and it must be your Lord Lan, Yiser's servant!"

Zhuo Ziang: "You—"

But wait, wait a minute.Oh no.

That's right, speaking of it, although King Rilan slept with His Majesty that day, who is serving whom with sex?

His Majesty is indeed not so stunning, he is still puzzled.But King Lan is really stunning! ?

Shouldn't... no no no no!Ah ah ah ah ah!

Zhuo Ziang felt that he was going to drink blood.

Young Master Liao: "Heh, fighting with officials from our Ministry of Officials! How ridiculous!"

……

It was already spring, and Yan Yuliang thought that there would be no more snow.

Who knew that there would be another big one.

The spring snow is beautiful, the sun is crystal clear, and it is more charming than the winter snow.

It's a pity I'm busy and don't have time to reward.

The end of each year and the beginning of spring are the busiest times for the imperial court.At the end of the year, there are old knots and accumulation of things.At the beginning of this year, Vientiane was updated and planned as a whole.There is also the upcoming Huachao Festival, officials from all over the country coming to Beijing to report on their duties, and so on...

The volume of memorials has almost doubled.

Yan Yuliang's most lamented in the past few days is that the licentious and unscrupulous emperor in the history books and story books is really enviable!

But Mingjun died because of the crime, and he suffered from back pain and leg cramps after criticizing the memorials. .

King Lan: "Azhao, take a rest and get up and move."

Yan Yuliang moved obediently, raised her handsome face and made various movements in front of King Lan.Lan Wang thought he was annoyed and drove him to the small courtyard, Yan Yuliang enjoyed himself in the sun, teased the parrot and munia, picked up the glazed brick and lifted it a few times.

After a stroll, King Lan said, "Ah Zhao, come here."

He passed by.Lan Wangjun had a very strange expression on his face, his cold hand squeezed his wrist strangely, as if measuring him, his light-colored pupils sized him up, and pinched his waist again.

Yan Yuliang: "????"

His family, Lanlan, usually restrains herself and restores etiquette and elegance, but today she is very active in broad daylight.

But it doesn't matter.I can do it, I can do it, I will touch it for you!

...It seems that it is not just touching.

Fuling: "Lord Lan, this is actually measuring."

"Measure your majesty's height and waist size, and make a dress for your majesty to wear on the tower during the Flower Festival."

King Lan: "Fuling, you don't talk too much and nobody thinks you are dumb."

Fuling: "Master Lan, since this slave is too talkative, I'm not afraid to say more. If we want to make clothes, we still have to come to the clothing workshop, and they have to use a decent soft ruler to measure. No matter how accurate Master Lan's hand is, you can only I'm afraid..."

Lan Wang's face darkened.

The Dog Emperor resolutely pretended not to know anything, and acted like a surprise from heaven. He looked at King Lan with all kinds of lights, and the dragon claw went to grab his hand: "Lan Lan, you are so kind!"

King Lan: "What's so good? Isn't it because you were arguing that day that you wanted to go to the city tower to sprinkle flowers, copper coins and red envelopes, and have fun with the people?! What else can I do? I can't keep you from seeing people, let me let you go to the city tower to spread flowers, copper coins and red envelopes, and have fun with the people?! It is rumored that you were hastily thrown into the tomb of the imperial concubine, and the tree on the top of the grave is three feet high!"

Yan Yuliang: "Hahahahahaha Qingqing also heard this statement?"

King Lan: "You can still laugh?!"

……

It's been a morning.After taking a nap, the people from the Siyifang of the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to tailor the clothes.

The Ministry of Rites also sent red envelopes and gifts for the emperor to choose from.

Yan Yuliang went out to meet people soon, so he was very happy: "Hey, tell me. What style and color of dresses are you going to give me and King Lan this time?"

"What? It's black and black weaving gold again? Didn't I say it's bad? King Lan is indeed heroic, solemn and elegant in black, but isn't he tired of seeing it in the dark all day long? You should also try to change his appearance. Hua Chao On such a festive day, King Lan will be dressed in red, and I will also be dressed in red!"

Fuling: "..."

King Lan: "..."

What kind of trouble is this going to do? On the Huachao Festival, the city gate worships and gets married?

The people in Siyifang only heard about the "harmony between the monarch and his ministers" in the streets and alleys two days ago. They were still skeptical at first, but now they don't doubt it at all.

The emperor in front of him is caring and sympathetic to King Lan, so what is it if this is not Jun Chang Chen He and Long Xing Yun?

The next few days passed peacefully.

People from various divisions of the Ministry of Rituals came here. This kind of annual big festival celebration must be paid special attention to, and everything needs the approval of the emperor or King Lan.

Yan Yuliang was very clear about the days that were warm and full of anticipation.

It is by no means a trivial matter for King Lan to allow the emperor to attend the Flower Festival and have fun with the people.

The importance of this matter cannot be overstated.

In this way, after the Huachao Festival, the Son of Heaven is really no longer a "imprisoned puppet emperor", and it is no longer easy to die suddenly, get injured, or disappear suddenly.

Since then, the worrying imperial parties in the court have settled down, and the officials of the Lan party who are still wavering can see the situation clearly and no longer have illusions.

This matter is beneficial to the emperor and has no harm.

For King Lan, it will do a hundred harms but not a single benefit!

A regent who originally held great power is willing to hand over power to the emperor. How many cases of this kind of thing can be found in history books?

Fortunately, it was him who met.

Otherwise, if you believe in the wrong person, the consequences of being settled by Qiuhou will be disastrous.

It is not without such precedents in previous dynasties.

It was not the powerful ministers who imprisoned the emperor, but the army from Beimo invaded, and the emperor wanted to give up the capital and move south to escape, but was detained by the general who held the military power to death.

The general was dedicated to the country, and angrily scolded the king of a country for fleeing without a fight.In the end, the emperor was helpless, and was forced to agree to send troops to fight. The battle was won in the end, and the land of Daxia was saved from falling into the hands of foreigners.

But even though he won, the emperor hated the general.

Later, he found a random reason and killed him.

This matter is just and comfortable, the official historian recorded it truthfully, and the emperor couldn't make him change it, so he could only force the official historian to add his rebuttal——

This person imprisoned the Son of Heaven and acted domineeringly, which damaged the majesty of the Tian family, how can we not get rid of it!

With the lessons learned from the past, at the peak of power, it is life and death, and it is not uncommon for father and son brothers to turn against each other.

And King Lan is not stupid, how can he trust him in order to make this "stupid" choice in the face of eternal doom.

It is simply a leap.

At the risk of shattering his body, he entrusted his entire family and life to him.

……

I wrote down the sincere words and sincere words.

But although I understand it, I never mention it.Continue to laugh and laugh every day, moisten things silently and treat Lan Wang well.

He wants to save some money.

Lan Wang tends to think too much, so he can't be coaxed every day.Too much to know is too late.

But when the Flower Festival is over, he must make a big one.

As big as "Azhao is the best" when King Lan hugged him that day, King Lan completely believed in his intentions.

King Lan gave him the highest sincerity, and he must find a way to return it.

Let the beauty be completely at ease from now on.

……

Of course, sincerity is true, and moving is moving.

The dog emperor's mind still uncontrollably likes to drift to some ghost ideas.

Isn't it?Today, the people from the Ministry of Rites came again and gave away auspicious paper patterns.There is still half a month left before the Flower Festival, and the preparations are almost complete.Yan Yuliang was looking at it with a piece of exquisite colored paper, and Lan Wang was also looking at it, thinking about each other.

Ying'er went over to pour tea and heard the emperor say, "Qingqing and Zhen... are they thinking the same thing?"

"What is Ah Zhao thinking?"

"Hey, you go first."

"..."

"..."

"Qingqing wants to fish like me, right? Sure enough! I also think it's a rare opportunity. It's a pity not to catch a fish."

Cherry: "???"

What kind of fish are you fishing in this early spring?The capital is not in the south, it is still very cold, and the ice on the lake has not yet melted!

I have never heard that His Majesty has a hobby of winter fishing?

This, it’s really not possible, add some hot water to the pond in the small courtyard, and then put two stupid koi in it...

She went out and told Fu Ling with a confused face, and Fu Ling couldn't stop laughing: "No need. What Your Majesty and Master Lan want to catch is not a fish, but a golden bastard."

Ying'er: "Huh?" But where do you go to get golden bastards in this winter?

Naturally, there is no Golden King Eight in the palace.

But there are existences out there that are more worth catching than Jin Wangba.

Yan Yuliang looked at King Lan with shining eyes, and King Lan also slightly narrowed his long and narrow phoenix eyes to look at him.The two saw the tacit understanding in each other's eyes.

There is still half a month before the Huachao Festival, so it would be a waste to wait like this.

It's better to put a long line, hang a hook, and see if you can lure some rebellious officials and thieves out of the hole.

See if there are any treacherous villains taking advantage of the troubled waters of disharmony between monarchs and ministers.Or the family ambitions are just around the corner.Or the powers of other countries will never die in their heart to destroy me.

Once the emperor was proud, he laughed badly.

Absolutely.If the two smart people, the dog emperor and the wolf ambition regent, do not harm each other, the good days of the other evils will come to an end.

"Come on, Lan Lan, let's make a plan."

He posted it, maybe because his expression was too doggy, King Lan couldn't help feeling a little disgusted.But Yan Yuliang could still feel a little softness hidden under his resistance.

King Lan likes the clever and wicked dog emperor the most!
