The Qianqiu Festival is approaching, and the palace is more lively than usual.
Chi Ruanfan’s favorite day in the past was the Qianqiu Festival, which was his birthday and also his only day off in the year.
Nowadays, Chi Ruanfan has given up government affairs and is living a wonderful life of resting every day, but there is always someone who wants to keep him busy.
He was just fishing for a while by the lotus pond when a passing cabinet minister quietly slipped a note into his hand.
Chi Ruanfan: “…”
The regent had built the palace into an iron barrel, and he was unable to stop the court officials from delivering messages in person.
"No more fishing, let's go back to Chaoyang Palace." Chi Ruanfan dropped the fishing rod and stood up.
From then on, not only were they not allowed to go near the imperial study, but even court officials were not allowed to go along the roads in and out of the palace.
An Yongzhong followed the emperor with a small bucket of fish he had caught. "Your Majesty, what's this fish?"
Chi Ruanfan took a glance and saw that most of the fish in the bucket were red carp. They were brightly colored and looked very good.
He smiled and said, "Leave it to the imperial kitchen to make a bowl of fish soup for the regent to nourish his body."
The Regent has been very busy these days. Not only does he have to deal with state affairs, review memorials, and prepare for the Qianqiu Festival, he also has to spare time to take care of the jade with him. I don't know where he gets so much energy.
After returning to the bedroom, Chi Ruanfan waved away the palace maids, walked into the study alone, and unfolded the note given to him by the Grand Secretary.
The note contained some recent important events written in fine handwriting.
The last thing is that the Turkic Khan Ashisheh, who is his blood cousin, has secretly entered Kyoto and is now staying in Zuishenglou.
Chi Ruanfan brushed his fingers over the word "Turkic" and put the paper on the fire.
In his previous life, the regent's desire to control him was not so strong. He managed to leave the palace to meet the Turkic Khan, and the two sides reached a cooperation.
A Shishe helped him to overthrow the regent, but he paid a heavy price and the Jin Dynasty was almost torn apart.
Later, the Turks' appetite grew bigger and bigger, and they even asked the Jin Dynasty to pay tribute and become their vassal.
Chi Ruanfan endured for three years, stabilizing the situation that was almost collapsed after the fall of the regent, promoting new grain varieties, developing new weapons, training a group of elite soldiers and generals, and finally destroying the Turkic State.
It was these three years of hard work that made Chi Ruanfan develop a habit of diligence, and he eventually died of exhaustion at the imperial desk.
In this life, it is impossible for him to go back to the old path.
"His Majesty."
A familiar voice came from behind him, and Chi Ruanfan's hands trembled.
He wondered why the Regent always happened to appear every time he destroyed the "evidence"
Chi Ruanfan didn't look back, but kept his hands steady. He waited until the paper was completely burned to ashes before he turned around.
There was a notebook on the table, which contained a few pages of indecent content, which he tore out and burned. This could be used to explain.
But when he met the regent's murky gaze, Chi Ruanfan suddenly got stuck.
Jinzhu waited quietly for a long time, but did not get any explanation.
His eyes turned cold, and he strode forward, pushed the little emperor down on the table, and leaned over to kiss him.
"Uncle Wang!" Chi Ruanfan panicked.
He had indeed done many intimate things with the Regent in the past few days.
But they all sat on the dragon couch at night, covered by curtains.
Instead of indulging in debauchery in broad daylight in this uncovered study.
Jinzhu kissed Chi Ruanfan's lips until they became red and swollen before stopping.
"Your Majesty, I still carry the jade you gave me yourself."
He trapped Chi Ruanfan between his body and the table, supporting the back of his head with one hand, their cheeks pressed against each other, their breaths entwined as they spoke.
Chi Ruanfan was so frightened that he could only cover Jinzhu's mouth.
Is this kind of thing something that can be discussed in the study
He certainly didn't notice that the Regent was still wearing the jade.
He only knew that the other party would wear it to sleep at night. As for the daytime, the regent had to go to court and review memorials... Chi Ruanfan naturally thought that the regent took it off himself, but he didn't know that he actually kept it with him.
Before Chi Ruanfan could cover the Regent's mouth, the Regent had already covered his horrified eyes.
"Be good, I will be with you, if..." Jinzhu paused for a long time before continuing:
"If you do not want to continue this relationship with me, please tell me and I will not force you."
Chi Ruanfan didn't wait for Jinzhu to finish speaking, he pulled away the hand that was covering his eyes, and said a little angrily:
"What else do you want me to do?"
Isn't he good enough
Compared to his previous life when he schemed in every possible way to overthrow the regent and even cooperated with the Turks, he could not be more content in this life.
The Regent should really be allowed to do what he did.
Facing Chi Ruanfan's glass-like eyes, Jinzhu opened her mouth. Many thoughts flashed through her mind, but she couldn't say them out loud. In the end, she could only sigh and said:
"There is only one thing: you cannot leave the palace."
Facing the little emperor, he couldn't say a single harsh word.
They would even be reluctant to break its wings because of the pain they felt.
"This?" Chi Ruanfan raised his eyebrows. The Regent really had no other requests. He didn't know whether to laugh or be annoyed.
After a moment, he calmed down and said:
"If you handle the affairs of state and govern the country well, I will never leave the palace for the rest of my life."
Jinzhu got the guarantee. Although the prerequisite of this guarantee was a bit strange, he still felt relieved and loosened his hands that were restraining the little emperor.
As soon as he let go, the person in his arms slipped away.
The little emperor was as flexible as a cat. He could lie on the table in an uncomfortable posture for a long time and yet he could stand up quickly without any stiffness in his movements.
