〖Emperor〗 Don't lose prosperity

After returning to the palace, the annual spring test will also begin, and as the prime minister, Xiao Zixian will have to be busy for a while.

The test questions of the spring examination are in charge of the left and right prime ministers, so the right prime ministers enter the palace more often.

Although the prime minister on the right is already seventy years old, his body is still particularly healthy and his majesty is fully displayed.

After two days of arrangement, this year's test questions have been prepared, because Xiao Zixian's questions are also related to the southern tour just after returning from the southern tour, and one of the questions aroused the curiosity of the right minister.

"As a king, should he govern the country himself, build a country and develop a business, or should he provoke the people and govern the public opinion?" The right minister stroked his beard, "The two are like a bear's paw and a fish, you can't have both."

"Although you can't have both, you can still take the more important and consider the less important. It depends on how this year's candidates will answer."

Prime Minister on the right nodded, put down the test questions, and said, "There must be a lot of anecdotes during the southern tour, right? I also heard that the emperor brought back two children this time, who are a few years older than the crown prince."

"That's the apprentice that brother Ye Yi took in, and he brought it back to the palace when he saw that he liked it." Xiao Zixian remembered something, and said: "Your disciples have already been selected, Prime Minister, please let them enter the palace tomorrow." Come on, if there are no major problems, you can take office in a few days."

"Then I'll call them over tomorrow."

"Very good."

Prime Minister on the right looked at Xiao Zixian, and said, "The border has not been very peaceful recently."

Xiao Zixian remembered that he hadn't watched the memorial with Emperor Qing for a long time, so basically he didn't know what happened in the court hall, so he asked: "Isn't the border guarded by General Xia, why is it not peaceful?"

Sitting down and drinking a cup of tea, the right minister said: "It is said that an army has been stationed a hundred miles away from the border towards me since yesterday, and the number of soldiers and guards is quite large, and the number is increasing. The strange thing is that , The costumes of this army have never been seen before, and they do not belong to any country in the Western Regions."

Xiao Zixian breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't hear the word "Kai Ning", thinking that it was King Chu, he had run out of patience and was about to send troops to the Qing Dynasty.

The Prime Minister on the right continued: "If it wasn't for the small countries in the Western Regions, then we can only suspect the Yuhai side."

"Yuhai? Even if they are far away from the Western Regions, they still have to go thousands of miles away, not to mention that he is not under the jurisdiction of any dynasty, and there has never been any trouble with my Qing Dynasty. It is unreasonable to send troops for no reason."

"That's why this matter is very difficult. Today I have submitted the memorial to the emperor. How to make a decision is still up to the emperor to decide. But in my opinion, you can't startle the enemy. Of course you must be prepared. move."

Xiao Zixian nodded, "After finishing the spring examination questions, I will go to the South Palace to discuss with the emperor."

"This matter must be handled with caution, just remember it, and I will leave first."

Xiao Zixian got up and saw him off, "President right, walk slowly."

Taking the spring test questions, Xiao Zixian went to the Ministry of Officials, and after explaining the matter, he went to find Emperor Qing.

The morning court resumed yesterday, so after the tide went down, Emperor Qing still stayed in the study of the South Hall to review the memorials. When he saw Xiao Zixian coming, he put down his pen and said, "Aren't you busy with the spring exam? Why are you free? come over?"

After returning to the palace, the two of them spent less time together. Emperor Qing also felt that he had always been impetuous in his heart these days, but after seeing Xiao Zixian today, he couldn't help but calm down again, both physically and mentally.

"The questions for the spring exam have been drawn up and have been handed over to the Ministry of Officials. I just heard from the right minister that the border has not been peaceful recently? Has there been a strange army?"

Emperor Qing was disappointed, and said: "When will you be able to coax me by saying something nice like others?"

Xiao Zixian was taken aback for a moment, and then replied: "I am me, how can I learn from others?"

Emperor Qing thinks about it in a blink of an eye, what he cares about is not the hypocrisy.He reached out and took out a confidential letter on the table, handed it to him, and said, "This is today's news, please read it first."

Xiao Zixian was also unambiguous, and quickly browsed through it. It is generally similar to what the right minister dictated, and some places are a little more detailed.

"Then what to do? How to deal with it?"

"Prime Minister, do you have any good suggestions?"

Xiao Zixian rubbed his chin and pondered, this matter is big or small, if it is hasty to make a conclusion, disputes will inevitably arise, if you want to make a decision, you need to observe more and make strict arrangements.

"As far as I can see, the situation is not particularly serious. There are also troops training soldiers in the Western Regions. Maybe they are doing on-the-spot training. After all, they still haven't made any moves after several days."

"Even so, precautions must be taken. If you are not careful, the country may be in danger."

Emperor Qing nodded, "I have already made preparations for this. The border general has dispatched [-] troops to guard it. As for the part of the sea that the right minister suspects, someone has already been monitoring it."

Xiao Zixian felt relieved, knowing that with Qingdi's intelligence, he should have already had a countermeasure.

After talking about business affairs, Emperor Qing was about to talk to him about family affairs, so he asked: "There are a lot of things to do in the Spring Examination, is the wound a serious problem? Let me take a look."

Xiao Zixian blocked his hand, "It's all done, so what's the problem?"

Emperor Qing insisted on untying his clothes, "I can rest assured after taking a look."

Xiao Zixian gave him a helpless look, this is not in Daoxiang Village, how can it be okay to cuddle with people in broad daylight?

Seeing that he was determined, Emperor Qing changed his direction, took him into his arms, and said, "It's been hard work for the past two days, but return to your busy schedule, remember to rest and not overwork yourself."

"Eat the king's salary, relieve the king's worries, how can you work so hard?"

Emperor Qing touched his long hair, enjoying the rare tenderness.

In the evening, when Ye Yiye and Ye Shuang were about to go back to their room to rest, they saw their master walking through the corridor alone.

The two hurriedly hid, Ye Shuang couldn't help asking: "Isn't it too late? Where is the master going alone? That place seems to be the master's room, right?"

Seeing him wanting to follow, Ye Yi hurriedly stopped him: "Where are you going?"

"Of course I'll follow up and have a look."

"Master's affairs, it's better for us to take care of them less."

Ye Shuang raised her eyebrows, "I don't want to see if the master is going to confess to the master?"

Ye Yi pursed his lips, but he was really curious.

Ye Shuang smirked and took his brother away.

Seeing that the lights were still on in the room, Emperor Qing knocked on the door twice.

Xiao Zixian inside thought that Su Ye hadn't fallen asleep and ran over to sleep with him, but he didn't expect that when he opened the door, he saw Qingdi in normal clothes.

"It's late at night, why do you still have time to come?"

"Aren't you still asleep? Don't invite me in?"

Xiao Zixian made way for him, Qingdi would not say something like "I really miss the days of sleeping together in Daoxiang Village, and I don't plan to go back today"!

Ye Shuang gently lifted a piece of roof tiles, feeling extremely excited.

Ye Yi: ...

There are some materials on the table in the room, which seems to be doing handicrafts.

"Is this a bone fan?"

Looking at these ivory bones that have been polished, Qingdi understands, and can't help but feel better.

Xiao Zixian continued to work while sitting at the table, "Didn't I promise to do two when I was in Hangzhou, but now that I have free time, I want to finish it."

"I thought you'd forgotten about it."

"As long as you put your heart into it, you can remember everything firmly."

Xiao Zixian made it quietly like this, and Qingdi also watched quietly from the side.

Ye Shuang in the room couldn't help but tremble, where did this seemingly ambiguous atmosphere come from? Hey!

Until Zishi, Emperor Qing saw that he had no intention of stopping, so he said: "You should rest, it's getting late."

"I'm not very sleepy, isn't the emperor going back to the palace? I have to go to court tomorrow."

Emperor Qing took out two jade pendants of excellent color from his bosom, and handed them to him: "Wait until the fan is finished, and hang up these two jade pendants too!"

Xiao Zixian took a look and found it interesting, "Isn't the engraving on it a flying beast? Why do you and I look like it?"

"do not like?"

"It's just a strange thing. Generally, the things carved on jade are flying objects, which means peace and happiness."

"The jade pendant and the fan are keepsakes, so it is meaningful to engrave something related to the other party."

Xiao Zixian didn't answer, and put the jade pendant and the objects together so as not to drop them.

Qingdi tidied him up and pulled him to the bed, "It's getting late, it's not good to sleep late."

Xiao Zixian thought to himself, would the emperor want to share the same bed with him?

"Your Majesty, you..."

"sleep."

Said so faceless?Xiao Zixian was also helpless, but seeing that he had no intention of leaving at all, he asked, "Did you sleep well in the bedroom in the North Palace?"

Emperor Qing nodded: "Indeed, the mattress is too big and not warm."

Why is this person so direct?

The two of them huddled together under the quilt, and the original coldness quickly disappeared.

Holding Xiao Zixian in his arms, Qing Emperor suddenly felt sleepy.

Before falling asleep, Xiao Zixian didn't feel awkward anymore, it seemed to be a habit, and asked again: "It will be Ye'er's birthday in a few days, have you prepared anything for me?" he?"

"Of course, I want to take him out for a day this year."

"You just came back and want to go out to play again?"

"Celebrate Ye'er's birthday once a year, it doesn't matter if you say it's capricious."

Xiao Zixian nodded with a smile and closed his eyes.

Seeing that the lights in the room were turned off, Ye Shuang also put the roof tiles back in place, and went back to the room with his brother.

On the way, Ye Shuang stretched her waist and muttered, "When did the master and the prime minister sleep on the same bed? The relationship is getting better and better!"

Ye Yi suddenly thought of something, and asked, "What do you think of the relationship between the master and the prime minister?"

"Huh? What do you mean by how to see?"

"Is it agree or disagree?"

Ye Shuang thought for a while and asked seriously: "Is there a difference between agreeing and opposing?"

Ye Yi was speechless at this moment and asked the sky, is there a big difference, okay...

"We are not masters. No matter whether we agree or disagree, we can't change anything. Since we can't change it, then we don't need to think about it, and we are asking for trouble."

Listening to this tone, it doesn't seem to be annoying.

Ye Yi touched his nose: "Seeing that they are sharing the same bed, there is nothing else, what do you think?"

"Thoughts?" Ye Shuang frowned, "What's so strange about sleeping in the same bed? Brat always loves to run to Jun Nuo's room when he has a bed, and we often sleep together, isn't it normal?"

Ye Yi covered his face, why is his brother so simple-minded!

"What's the matter? Isn't it right? I said, don't be like Mo Zi's unscrupulous guy. He has complex thoughts and well-developed limbs. He doesn't distinguish between men and women. When he sees a good-looking guy, he can't help but rush at him. His integrity is broken. There is nothing in the same place!"

The implication is don't think about others?

"Okay, it's late, go back to sleep, I'm tired all day, I really want to get out of bed."

As he spoke, he dragged him to quicken his pace.

Ye Yi also put the question just behind him, the future will be long, and the key is to guide him well!Someday this dull brother will understand!
