For three consecutive days, the emperor invited hundreds of royal children. He entrusted the Dai King to the King of Donghai and was shown a kind-hearted act. The atmosphere at the banquet became more and more warm day by day. The descendants of the Han family finally felt close to the emperor and felt that the Great Chu Kingdom belonged to the Han family again. The novel "Chinese"...

After the last day's banquet, Han Ruzi went to pay homage to the empress dowager. This time he drank a few glasses of real wine. His face was flushed and his smile was casual than usual. He even greeted several eunuchs and palace maids who were not very familiar with and asked for their names, which surprised and happy.

After asking for peace, Empress Dowager Cining brought her son to her palace and asked the maid to prepare sober tea. She watched him drink it, then turned away from the palace servant and said to the emperor: "Drinking alcohol should be controlled so as not to harm the body."

Han Ruzi was not drunk, she was just happy. I really wanted to ask, her mother asked him to control herself while drinking, but asked him to "work hard" with the concubines in the palace. Aren't she worried that the latter would be more "harmful"?

But he held back and just smiled, proving that he was sober, "Don't worry, with Liu Jie by his side, he won't let me drink more."

Zhang Youcai is now dedicated to serving Tong Qing'e. Liu Jie, the chief supervisor of the Central Secretary, was worried about other eunuchs, so he personally served the emperor. He is a strict ruler and will never indulge the emperor in his excessive work.

Queen Mother Cining nodded, "That's good."

Seeing the Empress Dowager was still not very happy, Han Ruzi understood what was going on, "Mother, I have sent an order to invite my grandfather and several uncles to Lingyun Pavilion the next day. Will my mother want to invite my uncle's female family members in the palace?"

Empress Dowager Cining finally smiled, "Your Majesty, don't misunderstand me. I don't think Your Majesty is partial. Your Majesty is a descendant of the Han family. Of course, you have to pay attention to the royal family, but... it's just... the royal family has never paid attention to Your Majesty before. Whether it's our mother and mother, we live in the same place, or the first two years after His Majesty ascended the throne, or even during the retake of the throne, they did not show up."

Han Ruzi whispered: "I understand that revenge cannot be used to govern the world. The royal family directly controls the three parts of the Great Chu country. Although they have not spoken out, maintaining silence is also a kind of support. I need more support."

Empress Dowager Cining looked at her son and sighed: "Your Majesty has grown up and thoughts far-reachingly. She is much better than me, the old lady. You only need to know what you are doing, but you must beware of the second Han Chou."

"I'll be careful."

Han Ruzi said goodbye, went to take a look at Tong Qing'e, and then went back to the bedroom to rest.

Seeing the emperor's slightly drunk face, the queen smiled slightly, "Have you discovered talents again?"

Han Ruzi couldn't help laughing, but the queen knew him better. "They met the royal family members two days ago, and they were all old-fashioned. Today, they were young children of the royal family, both civil and military, and they all had their own strengths. I chatted with them for a while and thought that several of them were really good and could be loyal ministers."

Cui Xiaojun didn't need a palace maid, so she personally helped the emperor change clothes and said with a smile: "There are so many descendants of the Han family, so how can there be few people available? I just wonder, why hasn't it been revealed before from a royal family and talented?"

Han Ruzi sat beside the bed, holding the queen's hand, and said, "It's true. Whenever the imperial court needs to hire people, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel rarely recommend the children of the royal family. I have asked about it, and it turns out that they are afraid of causing trouble."

"The emperor's surname is Han, and the descendants of the royal family are also Han. What trouble can we have?"

"It is because of the same surname, and the fight is very strong. Most of the ministers in the court are foreign surnames and are unwilling to participate. Anyway, the children of the royal family have occupied many official positions by relying on their hereditary status, so there is no need to recommend them. So there is such a situation: many royal family officials are officials, but most of them inherit the ancestors' kindness and are in vain, just to maintain this grace and have no intention of making progress. Those children who are truly talented and capable have no way to rise."

"It's really difficult to choose a person." Cui Xiaojun sighed.

"The difficulty is here, and the fun is here." Han Ruzi was in a good mood and quickly kissed the queen on the face.

Cui Xiaojun blushed, "Old husband and wife, Your Majesty is not steady."

"Old husband and wife? Haha, we are old husband and wife." Han Ruzi found it even more interesting.

Two days before New Year's Eve, the emperor and Empress Dowager Cining invited the Wang family of the foreign relative. Although Han Ruzi was willing to praise his uncle, some rules could not be destroyed. The main hall could only be used to entertain the children of the royal family. No matter how noble the foreign relatives were, they could only be entertained by a private banquet.

Lingyun Pavilion is the place where the emperor usually handles government affairs. It is considered a very high standard to invite the Wang family members here. Queen Mother Cining was very satisfied. She gathered with the Wang family’s family members in another uninhabited bedroom. The queen and concubines attended. Queen Mother Shangguan said she was sick as usual and did not disturb others’ fun.

Because it was a family banquet for relatives from the foreigners, the emperor specifically asked the officials of Zongzheng's Mansion and the Ministry of Rites not to be present. The Wang family was all rural farmers, and there were too many officials, so they were even more uncomfortable.

The Wang family has been in Beijing for a while and is still in vain. Mr. Wang often wakes up in the middle of the night, calls his sons in, and asks: "I dream that your sister is the queen mother and grandson is the emperor. Isn't it true?"

The children and grandchildren took turns to confirm that they asked him to see a new house, a new bed, and a new cabinet. In fact, they couldn't believe this happy event that came from the sky and often asked each other for verification.

In front of the emperor and the empress dowager, these are all jokes.

Compared with the royal family, the Wang family has a small population. Grandpa, three uncles, five cousins, two young nephews, and several relatives who are slightly farther away are quite lively in Lingyun Pavilion.

There are many members of the royal family, and it is possible that the men of the Wang family can be hiding and lying in a hurry. Most of them are honest and responsible. There are no people who study literature and martial arts. Han Ruzi doesn’t need to observe and figure it out one by one, so she is relatively relaxed. She personally toasted her grandfather and drank a few glasses of wine that others toasted. It is quite interesting to listen to everyone telling me some trivial things in the countryside.

The atmosphere was harmonious until an uncle drank a little too much and there was no supervision from the ritual officer on the scene. He became bolder and stood up regardless of others' obstruction, holding the wine glass in one hand and the wine pot in the other, and staggeringly came to the emperor.

The eunuch was not there and the eunuch was still there. Liu Jie looked at him and immediately two eunuchs stopped the toastress ten steps. This is the rule. No one except the grandfather of the Wang family cannot cross this line.

My uncle fought for a while but couldn't break through the boundary. He had to stay where he was, and raised his glass and shouted: "I'll give you a cup to Your Majesty!"

Han Ruzi smiled and raised her glass, put it beside her mouth for a moment.

Liu Jie personally poured wine for the emperor. He was just doing it a few cups before, and nothing was poured out. Everyone was far away and couldn't see clearly, so they didn't dare to look at it.

But the uncle stretched his neck and stared at the emperor, "Is there any wine in his glass of majesty? Don't fool us."

A eunuch whispered: "Don't be presumptuous."

"All of them are real relatives..." said my uncle with his tongue, but without entanglement, he drank the wine in the glass and poured himself another cup, "Your Majesty, I three."

After three glasses of wine, my uncle became even more drunk. Two eunuchs wanted to push them back, but he couldn't move. He said louder: "Your Majesty, we have been in Beijing for many days. When will we be officials? I sit in the house every day, and my hands and feet are weak and my heart is panicked. Your Majesty, don't think we can only take hoes and picks, we can also guard the country for Your Majesty..."

Several uncles of the Wang family really couldn't stand it, so they stepped forward and pulled him back together. He was not convinced. The Wang family's grandfather was angry and asked his children and grandchildren to drag him out, and then came to apologize to the emperor in person.

Han Ruzi stood up to greet him and smiled and said, "It's okay if you are rude to me, the outer family will be safe."

Han Ruzi ushered in a new round of flattery. In the eyes of the Wang family, he is the only kind emperor in history. I really don’t understand why anyone wants to assassinate him?

The eunuch in the palace sent a message saying that the banquet had ended and was traveling around the palace. Han Ruzi gave up the banquet with excuse that he could not drink and asked his grandfather and others not to be polite, but to have fun. After drinking, he could go to the Imperial Garden. Although the scenery was not good in winter, he could be considered a trip.

There was still some time left after Hei. Han Ruzi didn't have to comment on memorials, went to Qinzheng Hall, or saw the queen mother. Suddenly he was idle. The queen and others were accompanying the queen mother. There were not many people in the bedroom. He lay for a while and couldn't sleep. He sat up and felt bored. He said to himself: "You are really hardworking."

But he likes to work hard, likes to have something to do, and likes to see things progress step by step according to the plan.

Han Ruzi walked out of the room and found that Liu Jie was not there. The Central Secretary thought that the emperor had already rested and went to work on other things. As the end of the year approached, there were also many chores in the palace.

This is an opportunity and a preview. Han Ruzi made up his mind and said to an eunuch: "Go to the deputy commander Wang He and ask him to take some guards to ride horses in Penglai Gate to wait for the order. You go now and run. You are not allowed to stay a step on the road or speak to others."

The eunuch nodded vigorously, turned around and ran away.

There were seven or eight eunuchs and palace maids in the room. Han Ruzi only looked at one person and said, "Let's go."

Meng E followed.

The emperor seemed to be going, but he didn't say where to go. The palace people were panicked, and several eunuchs followed. The palace maids were stunned for a while, and finally remembered to go to find Empress Dowager Cining.

Han Ruzi knew that her mother would soon learn the news, so she was extremely fast. Except for Meng E, the other eunuchs were panting and could hardly keep up.

Wang He was already guarding there in the Penglai Gate, and dozens of guards and hundreds of guard soldiers were still recruited in a hurry.

"Open the door." Han Ruzi ordered.

"Where is Your Majesty going?" Wang He was not as obedient as usual.

"Let's talk about it after leaving the palace."

"But...but...but the etiquette is not complete, and the streets are not quiet yet..."

"It's enough to have you, Wang He, don't ask more questions and act according to the order."

Wang He didn't dare to say anything, so he had to order the door to open. Han Ruzi was already on his horse. Looking back, a large group of eunuchs were running over under the leadership of Liu Jie, shouting loudly. At this time, the palace gate was only halfway through. He slapped his horse and rushed out first. The guards and guards hurriedly followed. Only after running out of the street did the team become neat.

"Your Majesty must point a direction." Wang He chased after him and had to ask.

As the emperor and possessed the great Chu country, Han Ruzi found that he had nowhere to go.

"The Mansion." He said, this is just the beginning, and there is no need to be too aggressive, he wants to explore the world little by little. (To be continued.)
