Chapter 58 Why Are You So Stupid (2)

The one in front of me is the queen, the mother of a country, and the lord of the six palaces.

To put it bluntly, Emperor Tomorrow is dead. This empress dowager, who has a few points higher than the new king, sounds so awkward.

It seems like with a little deliberate caution, a little depressed?

Isn’t that normal for relatives in my parents’ family to give gifts on their birthdays? Is it necessary to take it out and say it?

What did you say to the emperor or to these ministers?

Or have other concerns?

Zhu Gaochi's brain was running fast, and he couldn't help but quietly glance at Zhu Yunxi and the queen who were smiling and eating dumplings.

"This queen is not from a high origin, but there is also a concubine who is a daughter of Tang in the palace who has a strong family and has also given birth to Long Zi. I guess this day doesn't look so comfortable!"

"But you don't have to be afraid. There is no one in your parents' home. Isn't the Chang'an Lan family a member?"

He looked at Zhu Yunxi again, "You are so tired of living. Everyone talks to you, and there is no point in saying anything."

Thinking of this, he felt a little lucky, "If everyone around me was jealous, I would probably not be able to live forty!"

~~

The night is like a river, flowing quietly.

The wind blows and the stars move, and the clouds move in a flash, it is dawn again.

When it was dawn, the annoying rain began to drizzle again, and it looked like it was not too heavy, and it was endless.

The birds who get up early and squat on the branches are gone. They are left alone on the wall and those tender branches that are pressed down by the rain.

The trees outside the palace had not dried yesterday and were washed away by the rain again, revealing the brown wet bark, like something that had just been cut.

Li Jinglong sorted out his group-collared robe in the carriage. Today, he did not wear a python robe, nor did he wear a public uniform embroidered by a kirin, nor did he represent the identity of a military general.

It is rare to wear the second-rank civil servant uniform with a golden pheasant, which is somewhat surprising, because his official position is the Minister of the Lifan Academy.

"This dress is loose and not well-dressed!"

Li Jinglong stepped out of the carriage and muttered with his wide skirt.

"Master, you look special in the civil servant's robe..." Li Xiaowai thought for a long time and came up with a word, "Elegant!"

"What a bad thing!" Li Jinglong smiled and cursed, then looked down at the golden pheasant patch on his chest, and said, "Beast-dressed!"

"Why are you scolding yourself, old man?" Li Xiaowai didn't understand.

Li Jinglong sighed, "You don't understand!"

After saying that, he didn't hold an umbrella and walked into the palace in the rain that was neither too big nor too small.

But as soon as I walked a few steps, I heard the sound of horse hooves behind me.

Looking back, He Guangyi, who seemed to have not had a good sleep, had swollen eyelids, got off right away.

~

"You can also hurry up early and come to the palace to meet the saint?"

Li Jinglong deliberately slowed down and waited for He Guangyi to come up.

"Oh, a lot of things!" He Guangyi smiled and walked side by side with Li Jinglong, nodded to the guards who greeted him, and the two entered the Meridian Gate.

There was no one around in the door, He Guangyi thought about it and hesitated for a moment, "Duke Cao, I heard that there is a medicine shop in your house with a master? My mother has been unhappy these days, so I will be reluctant to trouble you when I look back!"

Li Jinglong paused, and looked at He Guangyi with a little more gratitude, "Thank you, I'm so kind!"

He Guangyi didn't say anything and nodded.

In fact, they both understood what each other meant. He Guangyi was referring to Li Jinglong and the medicine shop. Li Jinglong was replying that he already knew it himself.

"What's the trouble with our relationship? Let's go back and take some good medicine to the doctor. You can go to the house to see the old woman!"

The meaning of Li Jinglong's words is that I don't know how your grandson changed his personality today, so I know to mention me. I will take the favors and see you in the future.

He Guangyi said, "No, no, no, just do whatever you want, public and private!"

What he said was, hurry up and don’t be arrogant. Eight hundred pairs of eyes outside are staring at me. Why are you close to me?

After talking and answering, the two of them went straight into the Ganqing Gate except for the door opening.

When crossing the threshold, Li Jinglong sighed, "Oh, this rain is so annoying, it's not over!"

He Guangyi also sighed, "Don't worry, there will always be sunny!"

This is another word in words, full of cleverness.

Li Jinglong is saying that now is a turbulent time!

He Guangyi is saying, what's the solution? There are always people who are not open to their eyes. Let's wait for the emperor to decide!

The two continued to move forward, passing through the Duanmen without entering the Nan Study Room or the Public Affairs Room, and walked straight towards the Ganqing Palace.

Before I could reach the door, I saw Zhao Shi who had just changed shifts and seemed a little absent-minded.

"The emperor has met Duke Cao and Commander He!" After everyone walked in front of him, Zhao Shi reacted and quickly saluted.

How dare Li Jinglong and He Guangyi be arrogant? They all turned sideways.

"Please ask the guard Zhao to report it!" He Guangyi said, "He Guangyi Commander of the Jinyiwei is asking for a visit!"

Li Jinglong sighed in his heart when he looked at Zhao Shi with a look of not sleeping well.

"What a good kid, hey...tsk, you obviously have a good future, but if you make a mistake in this matter, it's not worth it!"

~~

"I'm going to see the emperor!"

Zhu Yunyu was wearing clothes and her hair was scattered in such a mess before she could combed her hair.

He waved his hand and bowed silently.

Only the three of them were the king and the minister in the hall, Zhu Yunxiu said, "So early, is there something wrong?"

He Guangyi didn't say anything, and glanced at Li Jinglong beside him.

"It's okay, let's talk! Don't avoid him!" Zhu Yunxiu predicted that it shouldn't be a good thing.

He Guangyi pulled out a memorial from his sleeve and raised his hands over his head. "There is a disaster in Huaibei, which affects the capital. There are no good pharmacy rice shops and rice shops to hoard prices. I have found out that, and I will list them one by one. Please read the emperor!"

Zhu Yunxiu didn't say anything, clicked the low table in front of him, and He Guangyi stepped forward and put down the memorial, and then took two steps back.

"There are 18 rice shops and thirteen pharmacies that were found."

When Zhu Yunxiu turned on the memorial, He Guangyi's voice sounded again, "At the beginning, Yingtianfu ordered them to repent, but... it was just a formality!"

"It's just that there is someone behind you, so don't take it seriously!" Zhu Yunsheng sneered.

"At this time, six fifth-rank officials and eight fourth-rank officials involved!" He Guangyi continued to speak, "The Military and Ma Affairs Office and the Tax Office turned a blind eye to the people's requests. In addition, it also involved the prefect of Yingtian Prefecture and several officials from the Ministry of Revenue."

"Ha!" Zhu Yunsheng sneered, completely expected.

If a businessman dares to disobey a government order, he is nothing more than someone behind him who can issue or execute a government order.

Sure enough, he saw several familiar names on the memorial.

"Since I ascended the throne, have I given them fewer? People are insatiable!"

Zhao Shi outside the door heard this clearly and his whole body shivered like a sieve.

At the same time, it seemed like a thousand pounds of stone was pressing on his heart, making him breathless.

It made him feel even more palpitations and his heart beat wildly.

~~

"Catch, investigate, kill!"

Inside the house, Zhu Yunxiong gave a few simple words, "The officials involved were arrested by the Jinyiwei!"

"I obey the order!"

Li Jinglong next to him was a little surprised. He knew that there were several medicine shops, rice shops, and they were from a wealthy family.

But immediately, he saw murderous aura and entanglement flashing between the emperor's eyebrows. He seemed to understand. He Guangyi didn't say it, which did not mean that the memorial was not written.

He thought about it, and suddenly a thud beside him, scaring him.

Looking over, Zhao Shi actually came in directly from outside, kneeling straight in front of the emperor, bursting into tears.

Dongdong, Zhao Shi kowtowed.

"Your Majesty, I...I am ashamed!"

Zhu Yunxi looked at him, "What's wrong with you?"

"I'm sorry for your cultivation! I..." Zhao Shi burst into tears, "I'm ashamed of myself, I really want to die!"

Suddenly, Li Jinglong noticed that He Guangyi's body shook violently.

"What's wrong with you? Say it!" Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhao Shi quietly.
