Qing Jialu

Chapter 30 Emperor Taichun

The next day, King Kui, who had been recuperating for many days, suddenly entered the palace to pay his respects to the emperor.

Xiao Yi had been tossing and tossing for half the night last night, so he didn't have a good rest.Hearing the servant's report at this moment, Xiao Yu felt even more headache, and cursed: "He still has the face?"

Eunuch Chen was massaging His Majesty's temples, and upon seeing this, he said cautiously, "Is this old slave going back to His Highness King Kui?"

"No, let him in." Xiao Yi changed his mind, "I still have something to tell him."

As soon as King Kui entered the palace gate, he knelt down, cried and kowtowed to the emperor frequently, and said in his mouth: "Second brother, my younger brother drank too much wine yesterday, said stupid things, and did stupid things. Second brother, my younger brother knows wrong."

Sitting on the dragon chair, Xiao Yi looked at his younger brother who was bowing his head on the ground, he was really pitiful, pitiful and hateful.He waved his hand to let Eunuch Chen and others go down, and then said to Xiao Shu: "Okay, stop knocking."

Xiao Shu stopped kowtowing, still knelt on the ground, not daring to get up.

The emperor didn't cry out, and said leisurely: "Is it now that I know I'm wrong?"

"Second Brother, I said something I shouldn't have said yesterday. I didn't mean it. You treated me as drunk and talking nonsense." Xiao Shu got up this morning, recalling what happened last night, and suddenly became afraid.

Sure enough, wine is strong and courageous, and it is through the strength of wine that Xiao Shu dares to vent his resentment to his second brother.

But the emperor didn't think it was nonsense, he was probably telling the truth after drinking.But he didn't want to tear himself apart with his younger brother for the time being, so he said: "I just pretended that I didn't go to the palace last night, and I didn't hear what you said."

"Thank you, Second Brother, for your forgiveness." Xiao Shu heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that he had escaped a catastrophe.

However, the two brothers knew each other well, and they acted like brothers and sisters, maintaining a superficial peace.

"However, regarding Shen Jia's matter..." The emperor's tone changed, "Detaining officials of the imperial court and administering drugs to them is an unforgivable crime."

"Your brother knows your mistake." Xiao Shu's head was covered with cold sweat, "Your brother was joking with Mr. Shen, and I will never dare again."

"And the future?" Xiao Yi was almost annoyed, "It seems that I am too tolerant of you, even my ministers dare to tease you?"

Xiao Li knelt on the ground dejectedly, and tentatively said: "My brother, go to Shen's mansion to make an apology?"

"No need." Xiao Yi didn't want people to know that Shen Jia was drugged, "Shen Jia is drunk, don't let it out."

"My brother understands." King Kui was not stupid, he immediately knew that the second brother didn't want to ruin Shen Jia's reputation.

"As for the land reform, restrain the domestic slaves of King Kui's mansion and cooperate well," the emperor said again.

"Yes, my brother obeys the order." King Kui dared to say "no" now.

Seeing that the beating was almost done, Xiao Yi waved his hand and said, "Back off."

When King Kui left, Xiao Yi still had a headache, so he called Eunuch Chen to press it for him.Eunuch Chen asked while pressing, "Hasn't King Kui been dismissed? Why is Your Majesty so worried?"

"There is someone more troublesome." Xiao Yi closed his eyes, remembering the scene in the carriage the night before.

Facing Shen Jia's eyes full of expectation and love, Xiao Yi only felt that his head hurt even more.

Eunuch Chen naturally knew who the "more troublesome person" was.At that time, he was driving a carriage outside. Although there was a door behind him, he could hear every move and conversation inside.

"Your Majesty should have someone by his side." Eunuch Chen said, "This old slave sees that Master Shen is sincere to you."

"I was wrong, I forgot my identity." Xiao Yi regretted it now, "He is a Kunpeng with wings, not a bird in a cage. I can't trap him by my side, it will destroy him."

Shen Jia is the pillar of the country, not a jester and sycophant. Xiao Yi regards Shen Jia as his right-hand man.His great talents should be displayed in the court, and he is not wanted to be criticized by the world because of his personal relationship with the emperor, and the pearl will be dusted.

Eunuch Chen sighed inwardly, how could he not know what His Majesty said, the relationship between the two men is absurd, and with His Majesty's identity, it is even more so.

But he felt sorry for His Majesty, His Majesty was really lonely, especially after he ascended the throne.This position is so high that everyone is afraid of him, and no one dares to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

Due to being drugged and the residual poison accumulated in the body before, Shen Jia's body couldn't bear it all of a sudden.After three days of recuperating in bed, he was finally able to get up.The first thing he did after recovering from his illness was to enter the palace and come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to see His Majesty.

"...Biography." Xiao Yi hesitated, he wasn't sure how much Shen Jia remembered after being drunk.

I saw Shen Jia saluting respectfully and saying hello as usual, with a calm expression, there was nothing wrong.

Only then did Xiao Yi feel relieved, and said lightly, "Pingshen."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Jia then stood up and looked up at Xiao Yi.But Xiao Yi turned his eyes away and lowered his eyelids to block his sight.

Shen Jia didn't notice any difference, and reported the situation of the land reform in a serious manner.Xiao Yi listened absent-mindedly, nodding from time to time.

"Your Majesty, where is King Kui..."

"I have already talked to King Kui." Xiao Yi interrupted, "Changqing, you are too reckless, how can you go to King Kui's mansion alone? Aren't you afraid that he will harm you?"

"I know I was wrong." Shen Jia was also a little scared when she recalled it now.But at that time, he was dazzled by the servants of King Kui's mansion, so he didn't think about anything, and went directly to the door, forgetting that King Kui's temperament was unreasonable.

"In the future, if you have something to do, you can go to me directly." Xiao Yi said, "Don't put yourself in danger again."

"I know it."

"Land reform is the first step, and the second step is to rectify the bureaucracy." Xiao Yi talked about the business, "What I mean is that both sides are carried out at the same time. You should come up with a statement as soon as possible and think about how to rectify it."

"I obey the order." Shen Jia didn't think it was sudden, he had already seen that the emperor kept a low profile after he ascended the throne, and only waited for the opportunity to make a big move.

"Don't let Mr. Cheng Ge know about this for the time being." Xiao Yi warned, "He doesn't agree with me making a big move. Mr. Cheng is still too conservative."

Mr. Cheng Ge sought stability in everything. Before the land reform, Xiao Yi discussed with him for a long time before he agreed.Now that the land reform has not yet achieved results, and Xiao Yi is busy rectifying the administration of officials, Mr. Cheng Ge will definitely not agree.

Xiao Yi had to admit that young people are still aggressive and dare to fight.
