Yu Wenjie glanced at her: "Do you have books here?"
"Of course there are." Huo Zhaoyi got up, made a small gift, and led the maids to the apse.
Yu Wenjie shook the book in his hand, and continued to read without saying a word. Hua Chun smiled awkwardly until Huo Zhaoyi came back with the book.
"These are what concubines usually like to see." Huo Zhaoyi presented the things in his hand to the emperor.
Looking sideways, Yu Wenjie nodded, reached out to take it and handed it to Hua Chun: "Huo Zhaoyi is gentle and considerate, Prime Minister, won't you thank me?"
"Thank you, Lady Zhaoyi." Hua Chun got up obediently and nodded, then took the book to read.
At first glance, she thought Huo Zhaoyi was seductive, but when she saw the book, it turned out to be some strange writings, which was somewhat interesting.
After being relieved of her siege in this way, she naturally felt that she was a nice person and not as embarrassing as the queen mother thought, so she looked at it gratefully.
Huo Zhaoyi still sat back on the emperor's lap.
In this way, one emperor, one minister, and one concubine read books together for an hour in harmony.
Hua Chun read it with gusto. This book is a handwritten copy, the handwriting is good, and it has some fragrance. It is something that my daughter's family will like.
However, when I turned to the last page, there was no writing on that blank page, but it was a painted portrait.
Slightly taken aback, Hua Chun took a closer look. This painting is not bad, the girl in the painting is like a fairy daughter, with a pretty face, and she is wearing a neon dress and feathers, and she also has a fairy look. Although the strokes are simple and uncolored, it has the unique charm of ancient ladies' pictures.
But who is this painting
He didn't think much about it, seeing that the time was almost up, and the emperor next to him had already changed a stack of memorials, Hua Chun still stood up contentedly, and said: "Your Majesty has worked hard, and I should retire."
"What is the prime minister in a hurry for?"
Come and go as you want? Yu Wenjie was very unhappy, looked at him and said: "The queen mother's order is an order, but my order is not?"
What? Hua Chun is stupid, this person is still fighting with her? Please, it's almost noon, if she doesn't leave the palace, she won't be able to go back for lunch in time. Why keep her here? Still want to continue reading
There was a burst of complaints in her heart, but she still said respectfully on the face: "Your Majesty, calm down."
"I'm not angry." The emperor said, "You can continue to sit here and read with me."
Huachun: "..."
Glancing at the blue sky outside, she sighed helplessly, and resigned herself to taking another book to read.
Huo Zhaoyi felt tired, so she whispered to Yu Wenjie, "Your Majesty, don't you want to rest?"
"En." The emperor nodded: "It's time to rest, I'm going to lie down in your palace for a while."
Hua Chun was overjoyed: "That humble minister..."
"Stay here and continue watching." Yu Wenjie said without looking back, "We'll talk about it when I wake up."
Inhumane! Hua Chun's face turned green, what kind of hatred and resentment! They said it had nothing to do with her, she was just an innocent duck who was caught on the shelf, why did she have to be used for surgery
Looking at the emperor's back, Hua Chun yelled twice resentfully: Ga! Ga!
Huo Zhaoyi waited on the emperor to rest in the apse, and she continued to read the pile of books with a woman's fragrance.
"Master Prime Minister."
After a while, Huo Zhaoyi came out again, stood three steps away from her and said, "These are all handwritten by Xianrou, the words are a bit messy, can you still understand?"
"Mistress copied it by hand?" Hua Chun was a little surprised, looked at the words on it, the handwriting was elegant, similar to the printed ones, and immediately became more fond of her: "Understandable, Niangniang's calligraphy skills make me admire."
Huo Xianrou smiled, this smile was really Bai Meisheng, Hua Chun was stunned when she saw it, thinking that it is really not a crime for someone to look good, she can read books, and she can write well, such a concubine, the Queen Mother Why so defensive
"My lord, I'm overwhelmed." Looking at the prime minister's expression in front of her, Huo Xianrou was very happy, pinching her handkerchief and said, "Xianrou also knows that the queen mother is worried about her, so she let your lord come here. But the prime minister has quite a reputation in the court." , I must not be a partial listener, if there is a chance, please ask the prime minister to speak a few words for Xianrou in front of the Queen Mother."
"I understand." Hua Chun nodded.
The queen mother also said that she just heard people say that Huo Xianrou's character is not good. There is no concrete evidence, and she can't make a one-sided conclusion. The Huo Zhaoyi I saw today is not bad except dancing. If the queen mother asks, She should help say a few words.
It's time for lunch, Hua Chun is so hungry that his chest is pressed against his back, Eunuch Qin has already started to prepare lunch for the emperor, but the plates of delicious dishes all pass directly in front of her, and enter the back temple.
"Prime Minister." Eunuch Qin is actually very embarrassed, what does it sound like a dignified first-rank official is starving in the outer hall
But the emperor said: "Don't worry, the prime minister has a solution."
So now, Eunuch Qin can only salute him apologetically.
Hua Chun sat upright, and expected that the emperor would not let her go today, so she nodded calmly: "Eunuch, don't worry."
"Oh." Eunuch Qin sighed, and continued to enter the back hall to serve.
By the time the emperor finished his meal, it was already a quarter past noon. Hua Chun looked at the palace eaves outside with a look of lovelessness, all he could think about was steamed pork ribs, braised pork ribs, spicy pork ribs...
"Prime Minister Hua." Yu Wenjie called out to her.
"The ribs are here."
For a moment, the emperor felt that there was something wrong with his ears, and he frowned and looked at the dull-eyed man in front of him in puzzlement: "What?"
Hua Chun quickly recovered, and saluted respectfully: "The minister is here!"
"..." Glancing at him with disgust, the emperor said, "Accompany me to Zichen Palace to discuss matters."
Still discussing? ! Hua Chun really wanted to grab his skirt and growl, he had a good night's sleep and had enough to eat, but she hasn't even drank since the next day! Can you treat people as people
After cursing the emperor ten thousand times in her heart, she still could only smile: "I obey the order."
Why didn't God come and strike this cruel thing to death with lightning
She followed him out with vain footsteps, the sun was still very strong today, making her eyes white.
Yu Wenjie was in a better mood, dragged the Prime Minister to discuss the matter for an hour, and then left Prime Minister Hua outside the imperial study for half an hour. At the last dinner, he didn't intend to let him eat, so he gave the book. Let him watch in the outer temple.
Eunuch Qin couldn't bear to see this series of inhumane tortures. He wanted to give the prime minister something to eat, but the emperor seemed to have eyes on the back of his head: "No one is allowed to give him anything."
Eunuch Qin was helpless, knowing that his Majesty was tormenting others, his thoughts rose again. Alas, so is the queen mother, knowing that it is not easy for Prime Minister Hua to protect herself, but she still let him cause this disaster.
But apart from Prime Minister Hua, there was no other person in the court who had the guts to offend the emperor without being executed.
He can only bear it.
Gong Yuhou was invited to the palace for dinner, and He Changan was wondering that he hadn't found anyone in Huafu today. As soon as he stepped into the apse of Zichen Hall, he saw the half-dead Hua Jinghua on a chair outside.
"Prime Minister?" He Chang'an was happy, and walked over to look into his expressionless eyes: "What's wrong?"
Huachun felt that she couldn't hear anything, only the mourning of her stomach was in her mind, one after another, like a horn blowing in the doomsday, accompanied by the sudden darkness of the whole world, pressing heavily on her heart.
Well... Miserable... Nah...
He Changan raised his eyebrows, and looked at the palace man next to him, who signaled him to go to the back hall first.
"Your Majesty?" Seeing the man in the dragon robe, He Chang'an said dumbfoundedly: "What's going on in the front hall?"
"You don't have to worry about it." Yu Wenjie said: "Some people don't know the heights of the heavens and the earth, so naturally they will suffer a little bit."
Sitting down next to him, He Chang'an said: "I see that Prime Minister Hua is half dead, what punishment did the emperor use?"
"No." The emperor said solemnly: "It's just that I didn't give him food for a day."
He Chang'an: "..." How can you be like that without eating for a day? It's really distressing to watch.
"Although I don't know what happened, Prime Minister Hua definitely did nothing wrong. On the contrary, he must still be helpful to the emperor. Is my guess right?"
Yu Wenjie glanced at him sideways: "Want to speak for him again?"
"It's not a matter of helping or not." He Chang'an laughed: "Your problem has never changed since you were a child. They did the right thing. As long as they make you unhappy, they will punish you. That's about it, right? After a busy day, you should calm down and let him have a couple of bites of food to show your generosity and prevent the empress dowager from causing trouble again."
This was something that He Changan dared to say, the emperor snorted displeasedly, looked at the dishes on the table, and turned his head to Eunuch Qin to signal.
Eunuch Qin breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately asked someone to go to the front hall to help Prime Minister Hua over.
"The humble minister kowtowed to the emperor."
Hua Chun is really ashamed, it's fine if she doesn't let her eat, but this time you plan to let her watch them eat
you are vicious!
The curse mode in my heart was about to start, but I heard the emperor say: "Pingshen, come and sit."
Why? Hua Chun was a little surprised, looked up at the table full of delicacies from mountains and seas, and swallowed.
He Chang'an smiled as warmly as jade: "Thanks for your hard work, Prime Minister, the emperor gave you and me a special banquet. This is a great honor."
Thanking his whole family so much, Hua Chun bowed to Yu Wenjie gratefully. Anyway, he still has a little bit of humanity left, which is really moving!
Yu Wenjie didn't say anything, and the palace servants next to him began to serve dishes, and he ate quietly.
He Chang'an didn't intend to be idle, he pulled the stool closer to Hua Chun, and said to him: "It's not advisable to eat in a hurry if you've been hungry for too long, the Prime Minister eats it slowly."
"Yeah." Hua Chun nodded, gave him a thankful glance, then picked up the chopsticks, and took the dishes from the palace servants for a huge meal.
He Changan: "..."
This person is not rude when he eats, but he is very fast, like a rabbit gnawing on a radish. A bowl of food can be eaten in two mouthfuls. The speed of the palace servants next to him can't keep up with his eating speed, and he is so anxious that he sweats .
Yu Wenjie took the time to look up at her, and was even more disgusted: "The prime minister should also pay attention to his appearance."
"Ah?" Hua Chun raised his head blankly, and wiped his mouth with his hand.
Well, she wiped all the oil on her hands.
Yu Wenjie looked at the opposite person in shock, the look in his eyes could no longer be summed up in disgust.
He doesn't feel dirty at all, does he
He Changan was amused, and reached out to take his handkerchief to him: "Wipe it quickly."
"Thank you." Looking at them embarrassedly, Hua Chun coughed lightly, and after wiping his hands, his movements finally began to be graceful.
"Chang'an." The emperor glanced at the person next to him: "Are you here for dinner, or to see people?"
Hua Jinghua ate a bowl of rice and went down, he just stared at them and smiled the whole time, the food in the bowl hadn't been touched yet.
"Don't your majesty think so?" He Chang'an stroked his chin, looked at Hua Jinghua and said, "Prime Minister Hua's face is delicious."
emperor:"… "
Huachun: "..."
Damn, she was molested!
