The warm wind is intoxicating, and the imperial garden is dyed with spring flowers. Hundreds of flowers are blooming bustlingly, bees and butterflies are dancing, and the rich fragrance of flowers is spread out brightly, and clusters of clusters are gorgeously publicized all over the courtyard.
The green willow leaves are just unfolding, and quietly cast a slender reflection on the water surface of Yuyao Pool, which swayed slightly with the wind, causing a few ripples, which were dizzy as calm as jade, and faded away.
On the golden nanmu case, there is a long memorial. The memorial is a beautiful and soft running script, which is clear and boney, free and elegant. The zhezi paper was written all the way like clouds and flowing water, the purple jade pen holder in Qing Chen's hand shook slightly, and at the end he gave a slight hook, with sharp edges and corners, bringing out a scent of amber and pine ink.
She straightened her body, lightly placed the pen on the end inkstone of the Banana Leaf Texture Pond that overflowed with the fragrance of ink, glanced at it with her eyes, and practiced it every day. She smiled, and put away the notebook when Mo Gan was waiting. Today, the long case next to the emperor has almost become her exclusive use. This "illness" dragged on for more than half a month. When she followed the Emperor of Heaven to go to court every day, the Emperor of Heaven entrusted her with more government affairs, and even some chapters were just read and said, and she would approve them on her behalf. . This is also rare in the past dynasties, when all the ministers spoke and criticized, the Emperor of Heaven stayed in the middle and did not say anything. Everyone could clearly see that the favor and power of the Feng family had reached its peak.
Qing Chen's heart is clear, he is neither arrogant nor impetuous towards this day's flourishing favor, and only devotes his attention to government affairs, often even when he is still under the lamp. Day by day, the celestial dynasty has become more and more familiar with the history of human affairs, and its actions are as transparent as a fish in water. However, she is only cautious in her words and deeds, except for drafting edicts and writing such ghostwriting, she doesn't care about court affairs, especially when encountering government affairs handled by the princes, she avoids them without a trace, and instead puts all her heart into it. Above agriculture, industry, water conservancy and calendar medicine.
Opened a garden in the Yaochun Pavilion, and personally studied rice farming; the spring flood was approaching, and Shangzhezi asked to repair river defenses and maintain water conservancy; Wu Congzhao, the current Zhengqing priest of Tongqin Tianjian, observed the sky, made instruments, and minored in the Taiyan calendar; I went on to study more deeply in pharmaceuticals, acupuncture and other places. Thousands of years later, the knowledge that I occasionally heard and saw, and the insights from the past, are now spreading like luxuriant branches and leaves, teaching and learning, and using them wholeheartedly. Just like Ye Tianling recharged his energy and set about withdrawing the feudal clan, setting up the frontiers, clearing the mediocre officials, and checking the deficit, the movement was extremely quiet, the turmoil in the court was turbulent, the tit-for-tat confrontation was fleeting and not chaotic, it seemed that nothing happened. By coincidence, they looked at the foundation and foundation of the celestial dynasty, rectified, repaired, outlined, and expanded, and the crisis that had disappeared in the prosperous age has since come to an end, and it has been reversed one by one in the hands of the two.
Qing Chen sorted out the recovered memorial, and was about to ask the Emperor of Heaven for instructions, when he suddenly saw the Emperor of Heaven throwing the booklet in his hand on the dragon case, and said angrily: "It's really unreasonable!"
The whole hall fell silent, and the maids waiting beside were trembling with fright. Qing Chen looked quietly, it seemed that it was a secret document that had just been presented, and something happened that made the Emperor of Heaven furious. However, the Emperor of Heaven said to Sun Shi'an with uncontrollable anger: "Go and call King Zhan here!"
Qing Chen's heart trembled, Sun Shi'an didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly received the order to do it. Before he had gone a few steps, the Emperor of Heaven shouted again: "Come back!"
Both Sun Shi'an and Qing Chen knew that when the Emperor of Heaven was angry about the court affairs, they must not continue to persuade them, so they stood aside together holding their breath. Sure enough, the Emperor of Heaven seemed to be less angry after a while, and asked Qing Chen: "The last time I checked the singing and dancing hall in Tiandu , How did King Zhan reply?"
Why is it for this matter? Qing Chen frowned lightly. Although she hadn't entered the palace when she checked the song and dance studio, the previous court officials had learned about it one by one, and she paid attention to this matter, so she carefully replied: "That time in Tiandu A total of 96 dance halls were banned, all of which were related to the ministers of the DPRK and China, and another 13 were also thoroughly investigated because they were suspected of colluding with Jianghu gangs to traffic people."
The Emperor of Heaven pointed to the secret book: "There is no Yin family among the ninety-six families, not only there is no Yin family, but how many other families are not damaged at all! What's more annoying is that I want him to check the singing and dancing workshops. , He actually argued with others in public over a singing girl in some building! What he says and what he does are completely different things, this is his job!"
Qing Chen was startled in his heart, and then knew that someone in the court was going to compete with Ye Tianzhan. She knew everything in the secret book from beginning to end. She can defend Ye Tianzhan now, but at the risk of making the Emperor think that She shielded Ye Tianzhan from the risk. She can also say nothing, but Ye Tianzhan will be at a disadvantage because of this. After a moment of hesitation, she stepped forward and knelt in front of the imperial case: "Your Majesty, this statement is inconsistent with the truth!"
The Emperor of Heaven turned around and looked at her: "What's the difference?"
Qing Chen deliberated, first let go of the difficult and take the easy, and said: "At that time, His Royal Highness was not arguing with others over the singing girl, but because someone was using alcohol to make trouble and bully others, and he happened to meet him, so he scolded me a few words. .”
"How do you know?" The Heavenly Emperor's words were gloomy.
Qing Chen raised his eyes quietly: "Your Majesty, Qing Chen happened to have witnessed the incident before and after. If His Highness the Seventh Prince hadn't come forward to stop her at that time, that singing girl would have been insulted. His Highness the Seventh Prince didn't know her at all, but she just couldn't bear to see her like this." It's just nonsense."
"Who wants to make trouble by drinking, and he must take care of it?" Tiandi asked coldly.
Qing Chen hesitated for a moment, not wanting to add insult to injury, and replied: "That person is also an official of the court, if he speaks out, he will inevitably be suspected of revenge for personal gain, please forgive me, the emperor."
The Emperor of Heaven said with a sullen face: "Even if this matter is as you said, how can those song and dance workshops that have not been thoroughly investigated be explained?"
Qing Chen said calmly: "Qing Chen believes that His Royal Highness's actions are not wrong, he just grasped a sense of proportion. The ninety-six singing and dancing halls that have been investigated are all black sheep who bully the market and use their power to do evil, so they are all banned They have not been soft on their hands. In addition, there are some who have only slightly exceeded the rules, and they are ordered to rectify within a time limit and allowed to continue to operate. There are also many legitimate operations that are not included in the ban and rectification. The song and dance workshop is a mixed bag. It is an effective way to treat different situations differently, but in fact, the current situation of Tianduzhong Song and Dance Workshop has fully met the emperor's original requirements."
"According to what you said, he is right, should all these song and dance workshops be kept?"
Qing Chen nodded slightly: "Existence is reasonable. In a sense, singing and dancing workshops are a manifestation of the prosperity and prosperity of Tiandu. It played some unexpected roles. For example, in this case, the Tianwu Zuifang, which was closed down but reopened, specially took in Hu girls from Mobei in the Western Regions, making the Hu people who were homeless and wandering in the sky slowly. They have all stabilized, greatly reducing the situation where the Hu people used to fight with weapons at every turn, and the relationship between the Hu and the Han is also becoming more and more relaxed. This is obviously not a bad thing. If the officials of the official clan or the song and dance workshops involved by the officials of the DPRK and China can play this role role, why not do it?"
The Emperor of Heaven did not express his opinion after listening, but said after a while: "You know King Zhan very well."
This question was expected by Qing Chen. It is well known that she and Ye Tianzhan have been in contact for a long time. I have lived in Prince Zhan's Mansion, and the first time I saw the Emperor was in Prince Zhan's Mansion."
The Emperor of Heaven nodded: "You dare to speak for King Zhan today, aren't you afraid that I will anger you?"
Qing Chen's thin gauze shirt was actually covered in cold sweat, she straightened her waist slightly, raised her head and said: "It's public, private, emotional and reasonable, these are the things that should be said, Qing Chen is just telling the truth that he knows." Come out so that the emperor can see clearly."
The Emperor of Heaven was sitting behind the dragon case, looking down at her. Qing Chen calmly faced the sharp gaze in front of him. At this moment, she put all the emotions in her eyes, face, and heart under the scrutiny of the Emperor of Heaven. It is the only way to win the trust of the Emperor of Heaven.
With a face as clear as water, her eyes were penetrating and quiet, without the slightest flinch or retreat.
The anger of the Emperor of Heaven had long since disappeared, but no one could see what he was thinking, so he turned over the secret folder in his hand: "Get up and talk."
Qing Chen heaved a sigh of relief, Xie En got up, and wondered where the secret book came from. She could look up all the memorials, but only the emperor of heaven could read the secret book. The biggest possibility of this secret book was Ye Tianming, but how could he be so clear about the situation of the surrounding buildings that day? Although today's matter turned into a big one and a small one, it was just the lesser of two evils for her and Ye Tianzhan. Just standing quietly at the side thinking, the Emperor of Heaven asked casually: "I don't remember, how old are you this year?"
"Back to the emperor, he will be eighteen in a few months." Qing Chen replied.
"Eighteen?" The Emperor of Heaven said, "Well... ordinary women have already left the court and become wives and mothers."
His heart skipped a beat, Qing Chen didn't dare to answer, but he had to speak, his brows were calm, still shrouded in that calmness, and he said: "Qing Chen would like to practice with the emperor for a few more years."
The Emperor of Heaven smiled, and the sternness in his eyes softened: "I have used three servants since I became the throne, and you are the one I admire the most. But women will marry sooner or later, and their youth will disappear in a few years."
Qing Chen said: "According to the regulations, Qing Chen will follow the emperor until twenty-five."
The Emperor of Heaven said: "The system stipulates Xiuyi, and I promise you not to seal Xiuyi."
Qing Chen was stunned, his cleverness back then felt like he was in a cocoon. There was a deep darkness in my heart, and I whispered: "Your Majesty..."
The Emperor of Heaven looked at the bright spring scenery outside the hall, and said slowly: "I will never wrong you, so how about pointing out a marriage for you?"
Qing Chen just stood there, under the solemn gaze of the Emperor of Heaven, he could almost hear his own heartbeat, beat after beat, very deep, very quiet, as if he had used all his strength to beat.
