Hua Chun was stunned for a moment, then looked down and saw blood dripping from the fingers of his right hand, as if the faucet hadn't been tightened tightly. Opening up the sleeves, she saw that the head under the chopped plaster was bloody and bloody, and she just ran away and didn't pay attention, but now she saw it, and she felt pain.
"Ow—"
"Don't move!" Yu Wenjie frowned, squeezed his shoulder and said, "Wait for the imperial doctor to bandage, you sit down first."
The palace man next to him had already rushed to the Royal Hospital, Hua Chun stared blankly at the door, and then at his own hands, anxious but helpless.
"Why do assassins always appear in the palace?" She said, "The security risks are too great!"
The emperor pursed his lips, glanced at her and said, "I said earlier that I would replace the palace guards and re-arrange the patrol guards. It was the Prime Minister and General Meng who opposed it."
What? Huachun was surprised. How could Hua Jinghua, who was so loyal to the emperor, object to this proposal? Although the risk of changing blood for the imperial guards in the palace is also very high, the emperor cannot be allowed to live in this environment all the time, right
But Prime Minister Hua is a very thoughtful person, so he should have his own reasons for doing so, so what is the reason? Hua Chun couldn't figure it out, she wrinkled her face.
"The prime minister should have seen the situation in the palace now." Yu Wenjie said indifferently: "Do you still don't want me to clean up the inner palace?"
Opening his mouth, Hua Chun hesitated, but after thinking about it, he said: "If the emperor wants to rectify it, then he should rectify it, just to find out where these assassins who come and go freely in the palace come from!"
"Okay." The emperor's expression was slightly relaxed, and there was a hint of praise in his eyes: "I am very relieved that the prime minister can understand the general situation like this."
Can you still talk so easily? Hua Chun frowned, looked at him and said, "Are you really not worried about Lord Hou at all?"
"Worried." Yu Wenjie glanced at him: "But I won't shed tears like you. Men don't shed tears easily."
Hua Chun bared her teeth, his grandma's, she's not a man, she likes to cry and cry, what's wrong!
"Chang'an has encountered this kind of thing no less than five times." He said: "He knows how to escape from those people, so there is no need for you to be so nervous."
No less than five times? Hua Chun was stunned, and the scene of He Changan playing parkour on the palace wall every day appeared in his mind, and a "+1" symbol appeared above the head of an assassin after he knocked down, and a series of gold coins were rewarded on the way.
Shaking his head, trying to make himself serious, Hua Chun looked at Yu Wenjie and said, "If it wasn't for Lord Hou, I would have died a long time ago."
"Oh." The emperor nodded: "So what are you going to do? Wait for him to return safely, and promise him with your body?"
"... Your Majesty, the subject is a man."
The mood was inexplicably a little bad, Yu Wenjie ignored him, turned around and saw the imperial doctor coming in carrying a box, and said: "Prime Minister, wrap it up, and sleep in Zichen Hall tonight."
After finishing speaking, he looked to the side again: "There is news about Master Hou, report it immediately."
"Yes." Eunuch Qin replied.
Hua Chun frowned as the imperial doctor applied medicine to him, but his eyes were still looking out.
This look of "the lover is not returning and uneasy" made the emperor look disgusted, shook his head and went into the inner hall.
It was already very late, and the entire palace fell silent. Hua Chun was sitting at the door of the side hall, holding up his hand wrapped into a rice dumpling, looking forward sadly.
"emperor?"
The people on the dragon couch tossed and turned, Eunuch Qin asked in a low voice, "Can I have some soothing incense?"
Rubbing between his brows, Yu Wenjie whispered, "No need, Prime Minister Hua is asleep?"
"Back to the emperor, the prime minister is sitting at the door of the side hall and has not slept."
Getting up irritably, Yu Wenjie said: "You persuade him to go into the hall, and then you have as much tranquilizing incense as you want, don't let him sit at the door to scare people."
Eunuch Qin was silent.
You can't see people sitting at the door, okay? Why did you respond
Withdrew silently, he still walked up to Prime Minister Hua, cupped his hands and said: "Prime Minister, there is a decree from the Holy Spirit to let you rest well, and the slave will let you know if there is news from Master Hou."
Hua Chun looked at him with dim eyes: "It's okay, I'll just sit here and look at the stars."
Looking up at the dark sky, Eunuch Qin heaved a long sigh and said seriously: "If you don't sleep, the emperor won't be able to sleep either. There will be morning court tomorrow."
"I can't sleep, how could it affect the emperor?" Hua Chun stared, "I didn't make any noise."
Who knows? The emperor usually fell asleep very quickly, but he didn't feel sleepy even after tossing about for half an hour tonight. Eunuch Qin shook his head and bowed to Prime Minister Hua: "You can go into the palace first."
I really don't even have the freedom not to sleep! Hua Chun pursed her lips, got up sleepily and walked into the side hall, not wanting to change her clothes, she just lay down on the bed like a corpse.
As a result, he fell asleep quickly!
With a sigh of relief, Eunuch Qin closed the door of the hall and went back to the back hall.
When dawn broke, Hua Chun felt that there was a person sitting beside the bed, dressed in a blue robe, as warm as jade.
"Second Brother!" Opening his eyes in surprise, Hua Chun rushed forward without any restraint.
In the end, he met Yu Wenjie's dark face.
Rubbing his eyes, the blue robe turned into a bright yellow dragon robe. Hua Chun laughed dryly, took his hand back, and respectfully got out of the bed to salute: "My humble minister kowtows to the emperor."
The emperor looked down at her, and said coldly: "The prime minister is the only one who dares to offend so many times."
Shrinking his neck, Hua Chun hurriedly said: "I just haven't woken up from the dream, and I didn't see clearly that it was the emperor, so I ask the emperor to forgive me."
The dream has not yet woken up, that is, he has been dreaming of congratulating Chang'an all night
Yu Wenjie sneered, looked at his fair neck, and squinted his eyes: "He has already returned to the Hou's Mansion and suffered a slight injury."
"What?" Hua Chun looked up unexpectedly: "Have you gone back?"
"Well, Cai Zi rushed back to report." He said: "You can rest assured."
He actually returned to the Hou Mansion safely from the heavy siege? Hua Chun was stunned, and he didn't want to understand what method he used to escape. Could it be that the emperor was so relieved because he really ran out of experience
No matter what, she's fine, so she doesn't have to be so entangled.
Kneeling on the ground, Hua Chun grinned and said to the emperor, "It's time for the emperor to go up."
"You don't need to remind me." Yu Wenjie stood up, and there was no warmth in his voice: "The prime minister doesn't need to go to the court early today, let's discuss with Huo Zichong about the arrangement of the guards in the harem. I will clean up all the dirty things in the palace within three days. Get out."
Seeing that his expression was a bit serious, Hua Chun became more serious, and answered, "Yes."
It shouldn't be a problem if the prime minister doesn't go to the morning court for a day, right? Anyway, when she went recently, she just stood up and said something, and she didn't make much contribution. Thinking of this, Hua Chun excitedly went to find Huo Zichong.
Xuanzheng Hall.
Everyone could see the vacant seat on the right. When the emperor didn't come, they thought that Prime Minister Hua was a bit late. Unexpectedly, after the emperor came, Prime Minister Hua still didn't show up at the beginning of the morning court.
What's the situation? Everyone is guessing.
"Prime Minister Hua has something to do today, and I told him not to come to the court. Lovers, please express your opinions." The emperor explained this sentence as soon as he came.
Prince Xi raised his eyebrows.
Prime Minister Hua made great contributions yesterday, and thought that the emperor would get closer to him, but he didn't expect that it was only one night, and no one was even allowed to go to court.
This is really interesting.
He Changan was standing in the queue on the right, with a slight scratch on his chin, and his injuries were all hidden under his clothes. Hearing what the emperor said, he was the first to stand up and said, "I have something to announce."
Yu Wenjie looked at him.
"Yesterday, assassins broke into the palace, intending to kill Wei Chen and Prime Minister Hua. The ministers escaped by chance, but they were really worried about the emperor's safety! Therefore, the minister proposed to investigate the imperial guards, maids, and eunuchs in the palace, and remove those who are dereliction of duty from the roster. , and put on the emperor's personal guards to protect the emperor's safety."
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall.
General Meng stood up and said: "Your Majesty's words are probably a little thoughtless. There are so many palace people, it is difficult to check, and the imperial guards are even more related to the emperor's life. If you change them at will, there may be something wrong."
"It's not the first time that the imperial guards have neglected their duties. Keeping them is the real danger to His Majesty." He Chang'an said, rolling up his sleeves, revealing the bandaged hands: "Yesterday it was the minister and Prime Minister Hua, don't you Do you have to wait for this injury to fall on the emperor before you make any big moves?"
The ministers were silent, General Meng frowned and said: "This assassin is going for Lord Hou and the prime minister. I'm afraid it's a personal grievance and has nothing to do with the emperor. Just because Lord Hou was assassinated, the guards have to be replaced in such a hurry. The prime minister may know Would not agree."
"The prime minister has already agreed." The emperor said indifferently: "I also agree with Gong Yuhou."
General Meng was stunned for a moment, then frowned: "Impossible, as the prime minister said last time, the emperor's personal guards should not be changed at will. I also hope that the emperor will not be impulsive."
Li Zhongtang, who was next to him, also came out and said, "Forgive me, the old minister, the prime minister's absence from the morning court today is probably related to this matter, right? The appointment and dispatch of the imperial guards have a lot to do with it, and the entanglement is also extensive. I hope the emperor will listen to the loyal minister's words. "
"Do you think I'm lying?" The emperor chuckled, "Why don't you all go to the Zichen Hall and ask the prime minister after the early court. Just follow Gong Yuhou's instructions on this matter. If you have any objections, wait until you ask the prime minister." How about we discuss it later?"
Li Zhongtang fell silent, and General Meng also stood back with a look of concern for the country and the people.
Prince Xi lowered his eyes without saying a word, glanced at the ministers opposite him, and smiled slightly.
"I plan to promote Qian Songtao, the servant of the Ministry of punishment, to the Minister of the Ministry of punishment, so as to fill the vacancy of the previous minister." Yu Wenjie said.
"The minister has something to say!"
"The minister has something to say!"
As soon as he finished speaking, seven or eight people stood up in the queue on both sides.
Those who came out at this time were all those who opposed his proposal. Yu Wenjie was a little taken aback, and He Changan was also very surprised.
How come so many people have opinions? Could it be that the person he mentioned was not good
