The king is not the king, the minister is not the minister

Chapter 30

The servants in the palace were very efficient in their work. After dinner, pillows and bedding were added to the dragon couch, and the cloth towels and washbasins for washing were also arranged properly.

After the two of them took a bath, Xia Houzhan still chose to continue reading the memorials and documents.

"Your Majesty, these are all chosen by the minister." Yu Zhuo handed a small pile of memorials to Xia Houzhan, "The rest are trivial matters, Your Majesty can take it easy."

"Master who will take the exam, I want Hengqing to..."

"Not to mention anything else, these things alone can make the minister burn out." Yu Zhuo said with a smile.

Obviously, this year's Jinshi Xia Houzhan will definitely entrust him with a heavy responsibility. If he becomes the teacher of these people again, even if he has no such intentions, in the eyes of those who are interested, he may be the next Zhou Xi.

Xia Houzhan thought about it again, his thinking was indeed wrong.

"Hengqing, I promise you, if you don't want to, I won't suspect you of hurting you." Xia Houzhan said very seriously.It has been a rare thing since ancient times that monarchs and ministers can communicate and trust each other.

It's just a pity that there is a gap between the two of them, Yu Zhuo can't bridge it now, and it's hard to say in the future.

Xia Houzhan reminded: "Hengqing, you are in a trance again."

Yu Zhuo nodded, and just said, "The same is true for the minister." Then he buried his head in the pile of books, as if he didn't want to talk too much with him.

"Is this blaming me?"

Pretending to yawn, Yu Zhuo said: "Your Majesty, don't think too much, I'm just... a little sleepy. Let's read the scriptures quickly and go to rest."

As night approached midnight, the lights were gradually extinguished, and people were silent.

Yu Zhuo lay quietly on the dragon couch, stiff, not daring to move at all—Xia Houzhan was sleeping beside him, and this reason alone made him toss and turn.

There are countless memorials to be reviewed every day. After Zhou Xi, Yu Zhuo has not yet set up the post of right minister, so all these tasks of Yu Zhuo fall on the emperor.

At first, he was concentrating on how to solve the problem between the busy government affairs and the separation of powers among the prime ministers, but Xia Houzhan suddenly turned over and faced Yu Zhuo.

Yu Zhuo was taken aback immediately, and sniffed Xia Houzhan's breath for a long time, it was extremely stable, he must have fallen asleep.

The slightly warm breath fluctuated around Yu Zhuo's fingers, he couldn't help but darken his eyes, retracted his hand, and inadvertently brought a smile on his mouth.

By coincidence, Yu Zhuo leaned forward and kissed Xia Houzhan's smooth forehead lightly.

His movements were very quick, and after the kiss he pulled away, pretending nothing happened.He held his breath and remained silent for a long while.

Yu Zhuo let go of his courage and "offended" again, this time on his cheeks.

The light was dim, Yu Zhuo rubbed against each other, and passed Xia Houzhan's lips without seeing clearly. For a moment, the soft touch made Yu Zhuo's breath unsteady, and Xia Houzhan also moved and woke up after being tossed by him like this. the meaning of.

Now Yu Zhuo became honest immediately, and he himself forgot how he spent the rest of the night tossing and turning.

The next day, Yu Zhuo woke up first and found that his whole body was about to be attached to Xia Houzhan's body, but fortunately the latter didn't realize it.Yu Zhuo hurriedly got up, folded the quilt, and stepped off the dragon couch.

After washing her face, she became sober. Thinking about yesterday's absurd behavior, Yu Zhuo always felt that she was still a bit psychedelic.

"Hengqing." Xia Houzhan also woke up, and Yu Zhuo's heart skipped a beat when he suddenly made a sound.

"Your Majesty is up too?" Yu Zhuo looked at the sky and asked again, "Is it still early today?"

Nodding his head, Xia Houzhan said: "Naturally, I have to go to the imperial court. I hope that the imperial examination master can be selected as soon as possible, and the question is of great importance, so Hengqing will stop making excuses."

At the time of Qiu Wei, Zhou Yu accepted bribes and vented the problem without authorization. It was later that Xia Houzhan ordered someone to pay a share to solve the urgent need.The autumn examination is just a test for juren, and there are still people flocking to it. Chunwei is related to the size of the official position, so it is hard to guarantee that no one will take the risk.

Xia Houzhan believed him wholeheartedly

The teachers were chosen by Su Qing, the imperial historian, and Zhao Xuan, the imperial historian.

The debate didn't last long, and was soon replaced by another matter.Su Qing took the lead in playing. Since the beginning of spring, the epidemic has been rampant, and no less than a hundred people died because of it.

"Is it so serious?" Xia Houzhan remembered that there were such patients in the palace, and if they were not controlled, the consequences would be disastrous.Then he asked if there was such a situation in the local area, but fortunately there was no problem.

Jiang Yue, who has never spoken much, also opened his mouth to play: "Your Majesty, the epidemic is serious, far beyond your imagination. In my opinion, I should quickly call everyone in the Imperial Hospital to discuss with the private doctors."

There are also several ministers whose families are also affected by the epidemic. They all agree.

Yu Zhuo suddenly remembered what happened to the pharmacy that day, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, it stands to reason that the epidemic is raging in the city, and there should be a lot of mugwort in the pharmacy, but I found that the pharmacy was sold out. "

Jiang Yue quickly agreed: "That's right, when I sent my servants there, I said that only ten taels of silver can buy a bundle."

Su Qing frowned, and said: "I'm afraid some drug dealers will take the opportunity to raise the price to make money."

After going to court, Yu Zhuo also planned to go back to the mansion. Recently, he has felt the pain of spring and autumn, and has forgotten such a big thing.After he finished speaking with Xia Houzhan and walked out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Jiang Yue lingered at the door, as if he was waiting for him.

"Master Jiang, do you have something to say to me?"

Jiang Yue wiped the sweat off his forehead, and stammered, "Your Excellency left in a hurry yesterday, originally...actually...actually..."

Seeing his reaction, Yu Zhuo suddenly felt hopeful: Could it be that Jiang Yue didn't want to have this marriage?He said: "If there is anything, Mr. Jiang can tell you directly."

"Actually..." Jiang Yue suddenly closed his eyes, and said somewhat decisively, "My little girl is infected with the epidemic."

Severe disease is one of the seven diseases, and Jiang Yuli is infected with the epidemic, so it is reasonable to refuse the marriage.However, this idea quickly dissipated in Yu Zhuo.

"Master Jiang, let me go with you to see her."

She was already suffering from a serious illness, and if she heard that she was divorced by her husband's family, it would be even worse.On the way to Jiang's house, Yu Zhuo still had to sigh with emotion that he was vacillating.

He can't do bad things to the end, and grind others and himself.

When Jiang Yuli heard that Yu Zhuo had come, she panicked, grabbed Mrs. Jiang's sleeve and hurriedly asked, "Mother, how can my daughter see people like this! It's all my father's fault, why..."

"Master Yu just said, if you don't want to see him, you can do it." Mrs. Jiang was also a little hesitant, what if Yu Zhuo was infected with her daughter's illness.

Now, Jiang Yuli hesitated instead, and then asked, "Where is Master Yu now?"

"In the back hall, if you go to see Mr. Yu, there will be no servants watching."

When Jiang Yuli puts on the veil Yu Zhuo

Yu Zhuo drank half a cup of tea, Jiang Yuli came out, her face was still covered with gauze, saluted, and said: "My family has seen you."

"A Bing, you go outside and wait first, don't let anyone come in." Yu Zhuo said.

After Xia Yubing and Yuan'er went out, Jiang Yuli sat down and lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Yu Zhuo.

"Can't you see the wind?" Yu Zhuo tried to make his tone sound more relaxed, and sure enough, Jiang Yuli raised his head slightly and nodded.

"Do you have a fever?"

"No..." Jiang Yuli said, "The doctor prescribed medicine for my family, and said it was an epidemic..."

There was indeed a discussion in the early court. Those who were cured had scabs on their faces. I wonder if there will be scars in the future.This is okay to say in other places, but it happened on the face.

"You take care of your illness, don't think too much about it. I asked the imperial doctor in the Imperial Hospital. If you take good care of it, you will be cured within ten days." The second half of the sentence was actually Yu Zhuo lying to her. I am afraid that people in the Imperial Hospital will pay attention to this today. thing.

Jiang Yuli smiled lightly and said, "Thank you sir for comforting my family."

Outside the back hall, Jiang Ying looked around for a while, walked up to Xia Yubing, and asked in a low voice, "Are you the servant next to Lord Yu? I saw you yesterday."

"Girl, the little one didn't come to Jiangfu yesterday, and Zhulan came yesterday." Xia Yubing couldn't think of any similarities between herself and Zhulan in appearance.

"What girl, I don't care about you." Jiang Ying just asked casually and didn't care, and said, "Is Master Yu in the back hall?"

Seeing that she seemed to want to go in, Xia Yubing said lightly, "Yes. Master Yu said that no one should disturb you." Yuan'er couldn't get her mouth in, and she didn't even give Jiang Ying a good face.

Jiang Ying sneered coldly, scolded inwardly, walked to the railing of the corridor and sat down, as if admiring the scenery.

When Yu Zhuo accompanied Jiang Yuli to go out, he saw Jiang Ying staying in the corridor, thinking of avoiding it, he turned to Jiang Yuli and said, "Miss Jiang, I'm staying in the palace these few days, Your Majesty may look for me. We have to go first."

"Master Yu, let's go first." After Jiang Yuli saluted, Yu Zhuo left.

Passing by the corridor, Jiang Ying looked at the gauze on her face and said, "Sister, you are so sick, won't Lord Yu despise you?"

"Who told you that Miss was sick?" Yuan'er asked angrily.

"Yuan'er, I can't see the wind, let's go." Jiang Yuli nodded slightly and went back to her room.Immediately, Jiang Ying felt that she was like nothing, and could be ignored at will.

The author has something to say:

Yu Zhuo: I'll just kiss you.

Xia Houzhan: In deep sleep...

Yu Zhuo: Kiss once is kiss, kiss twice is also kiss

Xia Houzhan: Still fast asleep...

Yu Zhuo: I’ve kissed twice anyway, let’s keep kissing
