Because of the heavy rain this year, the morning is up, and the discussion is still on the flooding problem in the Chuanhe Valley.
The last disaster relief after the flood, Yun Chi managed half of it in the capital, because something happened in the southwestern region, he handed over the rest to others, because he was not in the capital, it was agreed earlier to build water conservancy and water control plans in the Chuan River Valley, It was also delayed because he was in the southwest, the journey was far away, and it was difficult to control.
Now that he has returned to the capital, the issue of flood control in the Chuanhe Valley has been put on the agenda again.
Because it is still a preliminary plan, it is still subject to discussion and revision.
Huayan listened to the affairs of the court, and she said nothing to each other, but she couldn't see any real and effective methods, and gradually fell into a sleepy situation. Seeing that the ministers had no memorials to submit again, she quietly went down the steps and slipped out of the meeting temple.
Yun Chi glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, and the corner of his mouth slightly curled up.
The courtiers all found that His Highness the Crown Prince seemed to be in a good mood today. Since returning from the trip to the Southwest and Lin'an, His Royal Highness had gained a bit of prestige, making people dare not think easily in front of him, but today, he Changing his solemn expression for the past few days, his eyebrows and eyes were a little softer, making the whole morning even if they were discussing serious court affairs, the atmosphere was more relaxed than before.
Zhao Zaifu looked at Yun Chi, thinking to himself that something good happened to the East Palace, and he couldn't figure it out for a while.
After Huayan came out of the Golden Palace, she stood outside the gate of the palace, watching the rain falling like beads, hitting the ground in a continuous line, thinking that the rain was heavier than before, and the Chuanhe Valley was probably flooded again.
However, in recent years, the area around the Chuanhe Valley has been empty, and people who don’t want to move out of their homeland have all moved to the mountains. It’s rare that a dam burst like five years ago, flooding a large area, and tens of thousands of people were injured or killed. The situation is gone.
Just as she was thinking, Zhao Zaifu's entourage came over, smiled and slapped, "Little Faithful Father-in-Law"
Huayan turned her head and saluted him back, but she couldn't call him by name, so she simply smiled and didn't address him.
The long follower was thinking about what Zhao Zaifu had told him, but he didn't care, took out something from his sleeve, handed it to her, and said in a low voice, "I see that my little eunuch likes this kind of toy very much. I met one by chance, and thought of my little eunuch, look, it’s as good as you want.”
Huayan turned her mind around, and instead of taking his things, she lowered her voice and asked with a smile, "What is this?"
The man immediately opened the box, "It's a clear jade pot with excellent water head. It's rare to see, especially the carving is even more rare. Look, this is the handwriting of Yu Huasheng, the former artful carving master."
Upon hearing this, Hua Yan reached out to take it, looked at it casually, and nodded, "That's right, it's really Yu Huasheng's handwriting, it's really rare."
The man smiled and said, "Little eunuch accept it with a smile. This is extremely rare, so it's not easy to tease."
Huayan played with it in her hand, thinking whether Xiao Zhongzi could easily accept the gift, and said with a smile, "It's a good thing, but you don't get paid for nothing."
The man smiled, and quickly said, "You like what my little father-in-law says, and take whatever you like. You and I have been friends for several years. It's okay to go about something in private."
Huayan didn't speak.
The man immediately said, "I have been on duty in front of Zaifu for many years. Zaifu often said that when the water is clear, there will be no fish." After saying that, he laughed, "Otherwise I am a slave, where can I buy it with money?" this thing"
Hua Yan nodded, deeply convinced that what Zhao Zaifu said was absolutely right.
Seeing him nodding, the man whispered again, "You are the only one waiting in front of His Royal Highness now, but in the future, the emperor will have regulations, and he will always bring some people with him. In the future, as the chief steward of the palace, the little eunuch It can't be the same as before, it's a matter of hello, me, and everyone, and it can be done occasionally."
Hua Yan "puchi" suddenly laughed, "That's right."
Seeing her nodding and smiling again, the man seemed to be enlightened. He was overjoyed and asked, "What do you think of this gift?"
Huayan said solemnly, "Excellent."
The man smiled and said, "The little father-in-law can accept it."
Huayan thought that Xiao Zhongzi must be very fond of this kind of gadgets, otherwise people would not take the initiative to deliver them to the door. Generally, those who take the initiative to deliver them to the door will do what they like. She thought that it is right that there will be no fish when the water is clear. , Thinking that receiving gifts is a double-edged sword, it depends on how you hold and eat such things as short-handed and short-mouthed.
To control the floods in the Chuanhe Valley area, a large sum of money will be used from the national treasury in the future. Although it is said that it is taken from the people and used for the people, it will inevitably increase taxes. Gift, don't take it for nothing
A long follower easily took out a jade pot worth several thousand gold, which shows that Zhao Zaifu's mansion is very rich.
She remembered Zhao Zaifu's birthday gift, the East Palace sent 600,000 taels of silver.
So, he decided to make an exception for Xiao Zhongzi, and nodded, "Thank you, brother, I really like this thing, so I just accepted it and I will give you one another day, as a courtesy."
When the man heard this, he quickly waved his hands and said happily, "No need."
Huayan sullenly said, "It's a reciprocity, if my brother disagrees, I can't accept this thing."
The man was stunned, thinking about it and said, "Well, reciprocity is reciprocity."
Hua Yan felt that Zhao Zaifu was worthy of bringing this person by his side, and she was very thoughtful, so she agreed in a blink of an eye. What kind of words do you want to get out of her mouth with such a large amount of money? So, she said melancholy, "Dude, your things are too expensive. You know me all these years, and I only have the little salary that your Highness gave me." , this return gift is not as valuable as yours."
The man immediately said, "I have a friendship with my little father-in-law, and it really doesn't matter how important this ceremony is."
Hua Yan took the initiative to say, "Let's do it, what's the matter with you, just talk about it today, as long as it is not the crime of killing your head and being punished by His Royal Highness, I will answer you. Otherwise, I will accept your gift. Not sure." After speaking, he fondly played with the jade pot.
Hearing this, the man regained his energy immediately, and then saw that Xiao Zhongzi was very happy with the jade pot, and his heart was overjoyed, thinking that Zaifu would get off the car and hand this to Xiao Zhongzi. Zhao Zaifu's admiration is like a surging river.
So, he climbed up the pole given by Huayan and said, "Well, definitely not, how can I harm my little eunuch."
"That's good." Huayan breathed a sigh of relief on purpose, and urged, "Hurry up, Your Highness is about to bow down."
The man couldn't bear to think too much, so he approached her and asked, "I can't think of anything else for a moment, just wondering what happened in the East Palace today? Why did your highness get up late? Never missed the morning court for any reason."
Huayan didn't expect to ask such a simple matter, and then she thought about it, the matter placed on Yun Chi's identity is not a simple matter, even if he just hasn't slept well for a long time, she suddenly He came, he was in a good mood, had a good night's sleep, woke up late, and because she wanted to follow and tidy up, so he was delayed for a while, but it was actually not too late.
But such a simple thing, in the eyes of others, turned out to be very difficult.
Now Yunchi's every move has made Zhao Zaifu, who is over half a century old and experienced a lot, vigilant, let alone the rest of the courtiers.
It can be seen that the majesty of His Royal Highness is really extraordinary now
She thought that if someone gave a jade pot worth several thousand gold just to inquire about such a small matter, it must not make people feel that it was worthless, and there would be no next time.
So, she quietly told the long attendant a shocking news, "The Crown Princess came to Beijing yesterday."
"What?" The long follower suddenly opened his eyes wide, chubby, looking at Xiao Zhongzi in disbelief. He didn't expect that Zaifu just asked him to make a few casual remarks, and he actually made such a big news.
The princess is coming to Beijing
Lin'an Huayan has come to Beijing
He was stunned for a while, looking at Huayan, "Little Eunuch, what you said is true, why haven't I heard of it?"
Huayan thought of me going to Beijing, and didn't want others to know, so naturally no one would know, including His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. She said with a smile, "Of course it's true. What did I lie to you? Your brother gave me such a big gift. I can't fool you." After saying that, she rubbed the jade pot in her hand, " It was last night when we arrived at the East Palace in the rain, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was overjoyed, so naturally he missed the morning court."
"Oh, this is really unexpected. Didn't His Highness the Crown Prince just come back from Lin'an? Why did the Crown Princess come to Beijing?" The man asked again in surprise.
Huayan shrugged, and said without blushing without panting, "After the prince returned to Beijing, he thought about the princess day and night, wrote three letters a day, and the princess had no choice but to be urged to come to Beijing for a short stay."
The man slapped his forehead, "His Royal Highness is busy writing three letters a day after returning to Beijing."
Huayan gave him the look that you don't understand His Royal Highness, sighed and said, "The sleeping space is free, haven't you seen that His Highness has blue shadows under his eyes these days? I slept well yesterday, and the blue shadows are gone. gone."
