Jiasheng Thirty-fourth November 23rd
The Minister of Rites, An Zishang and his wife, both committed suicide at home. Lord Long Live deeply regretted it and wrote the elegiac couplet himself. An order was made to bury An Zishang and his wife generously.
On the same day, Lord Long Live issued an order to promote Chen Qingxuan, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, to be the minister of the Ministry of Rites. Chen Qingxuan became the youngest Yipin Shangshu in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
…
Royal study.
When Chen Qingxuan came in, he happened to catch up with Kong Wenmin to go out. Kong Wenmin will leave for Ninggu Pagoda tomorrow. This is to bid farewell to Zhong Mingwei, of course Chen Qingxuan also knew, watching Kong Wenmin walking towards him with a smile on his face. Unavoidably feeling a little uncomfortable in my heart, now that Kong Wenmin is gone, I am afraid that we will meet again. It will be next February.
"What? Come to thank Lord Long Live?" Kong Wenmin smiled and walked in front of Chen Qingxuan. Asked casually.
"Well, I just received the imperial decree, so I came to the palace to thank you." Chen Qingxuan said.
In the palace, he has always kept a close distance from Kong Wenmin. He had something on his mind. Naturally, he was afraid of being caught by others. So when Su Su met in the palace, he and Kong Wenmin just nodded. Kong Wenmin had a tacit understanding with him, and never pestered him too much in the palace. If there is anything to do, they will come to him after leaving the palace, and the two have always maintained this tacit understanding, only this time. Chen Qingxuan obviously couldn't care about other things. Standing in front of Kong Wenmin, he couldn't bear to move his feet for a long time. In fact, he didn't have anything to say, and he was in front of the guards walking outside the hall, so he really couldn't say anything.
"When are you leaving tomorrow?" Chen Qingxuan asked, looking at Kong Wenmin's hand on the handle of the knife, watching him rubbing the handle with his thumb, he knew this was Kong Wenmin's habit, whether he was in a good mood or not They all liked to rub the handle of the knife like this, but Chen Qingxuan couldn't guess what Kong Wenmin was in the mood at this moment, but he was looking forward to Kong Wenmin in his heart, but he was in the same mood, just looked up at Kong Wenmin and couldn't close his smile. For the two rows of big white teeth exposed in the mouth, Chen Qingxuan only hated the itching of the roots of the teeth for a moment, wishing to break off those big white teeth one by one.
"Yeah, I'll leave before dawn tomorrow." Kong Wenmin seemed not to notice Chen Qingxuan's strangeness at all, and said with a smile, "I really didn't expect that I would be able to do it this year because of that kid Wen Jie's light." Going back to Ninggu Pagoda to celebrate the New Year, hehe, I'm quite happy just thinking about it."
"Hmph, hurry up! Hurry up and go back to celebrate the New Year with your precious brother!" Chen Qingxuan almost didn't want to look at him any more, and then angrily rubbed Kong Wenmin's shoulder and went into the imperial study.
"Why is this kid angry again?" Kong Wenmin looked at Chen Qingxuan's back with a surprised expression on his face, scratching his head as he walked out, "I haven't had time to tell him yet, let him wear a thick cloak and drive away tomorrow morning Well," Kong Wenmin walked outside the hall, squinting at the haze in the sky, and said with emotion, "Look at this posture, it's going to snow."
…
In the royal study.
"I pay my respects to the Lord Long Live, and respectfully invite the Lord Long Live to give you peace!" Chen Qingxuan entered the imperial study room, walked to the dragon case, knelt down on the ground, and said respectfully, "Thank you, Lord Long Live, for your kindness from now on. In the end, I will do my best to serve the Lord Long Live and lead the Ministry of Rites... "
"Okay, there's no need to say these words, I'm tired of hearing them, let's just see what you do in the future." Zhong Mingwei took a sip of tea and interrupted Chen Qingxuan.
"Yes, I will definitely not disappoint the Long Live Lord," Chen Qingxuan said in a hurry, while kowtowing to Zhong Mingwei, he got up from the ground and saw that the tea in Zhong Mingwei's cup was exhausted. Poured another cup, bowed and said, "Long live Lord has such trust in Weichen, I am very grateful."
