Chapter 508
After Concubine You finished speaking, her expression suddenly changed, and she said with a smile: "Your Majesty is actually an eternal wise king. The world does not understand your Majesty's ambitions. They only see some superficial appearances, but they have greatly misunderstood Your Majesty!"

"Oh, what do you mean by my concubine's words?" Chen Huang was a little confused, but he was more happy. A smile bloomed on his sallow and rosy face, which actually looked very strange.

When Chen Huang was young, he was very high-spirited, but in the end, he succumbed to the cruel reality.In fact, he still hopes to achieve great things.

But he has been addicted to drinking and sex for a long time, and his will has long since worn out. He has always ignored the government, but recently because of the problems of the Shenlei Army, he has personally dealt with some problems.

But these alone seemed to have exhausted all Chen Huang's energy.

He really left all the rest of the government affairs to Concubine You.

Therefore, although Chen Huang's body is not good, the original heart, or the obsession in his heart, has always existed.

That is to be an eternal wise king and be respected by the world!

Concubine You's words were just enough to poke a hole in Emperor Chen's heart.

Even if you can't become an eternal wise king, you can still listen to it. It can numb yourself. It is like the singing and dancing in the hall, which has the atmosphere of a prosperous age. Chen Huang is obsessed with it. In fact, he is pursuing the illusory afterglow of the prosperous age...

However, Emperor Chen actually heard so many such words that were obviously flattering that his ears became calluses.

If it had been anyone else, Chen Huang would have been angry a long time ago, because that was not flattering, but exposing his scars, and the blood was flowing!

But Concubine You is different.

She is very smart, and even if she flatters her, she is justified and the flattery is done very well. Concubine You rarely flatters her like "Eternal Ming Jun".

But now, there is a very good opportunity to kiss this guy's ass.

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven. He is under one person and above ten thousand people. He has great power. Your Majesty does not need to do the affairs of the country personally. You should make the best use of things and make the best use of people. Your heart should be broad enough to accommodate the world, and your mind broad enough to accommodate all rivers..."

"Jiangcheng Uncle Zhu Xiuyuan was originally a farmer in the countryside with a humble status, but His Majesty knows and employs people in an eclectic way. Zhu Xiuyuan rose from a farmer to a distinguished officer. This is a manifestation of His Majesty's ability to make the best use of his talents!"

Concubine You speaks and smiles brightly, her voice is clear, and her timbre is soft, as sweet as the sound of a piano, and tinkling like water drops, with a reassuring beauty.

It is indeed a wonderful sound.

Emperor Chen could listen to everything Concubine You said.

"Ah."

The smile on Emperor Chen's face widened, he twirled his beard with his hand, raised his head slightly, and looked at Concubine You with a very satisfied and appreciative look.

Re-employing Uncle Jiang Cheng is indeed something that Emperor Chen has been quite proud of recently. Now that Concubine You mentioned it, it was reasonable and well-founded, and it was very much in line with Emperor Chen's wishes.

"Uncle Jiang Cheng can achieve this feat only because of His Majesty's grace. Your Majesty, just imagine, if you encounter that narrow-minded king, a capable minister like Uncle Jiang Cheng will definitely not be able to play his due role!"

"It is precisely because your Majesty has sent down talented people in an eclectic way and given priority to Uncle Jiang Cheng that we have new weapons and the Divine Thunder Army. Once the Divine Thunder Army is completed, Your Majesty will no longer have to worry about the Liang Kingdom!"

"Your Majesty's move to reuse Jiang Chengbo is a reflection of your wisdom. Your Majesty's move will make our country of Chen prosperous, its military strong, its people prosperous and the country safe... This is all your Majesty's credit. Your Majesty, who has this merit, He is worthy of being a wise king for eternity!"

Concubine You spoke slowly, and every word fell into Emperor Chen's heart.

"Hahaha..." Emperor Chen stroked his beard and laughed, his face filled with joy, "My beloved concubine's words have won my heart. Yes, reusing Zhu Aiqing is indeed the most correct thing I have done in the past ten years! "

Concubine You naturally flattered her, and with a few words, she aroused Emperor Chen's interest to a higher level...

In fact, Concubine You also had her own selfish motives in what she said.

Uncle Jiang Cheng, Zhu Xiuyuan, was the capable minister she had prepared for the crown prince, but it seemed that Uncle Jiang Cheng was too much in the limelight, Concubine You was afraid that the Emperor Chen would be suspicious and think that Zhu Xiuyuan's meritorious deeds would be a master.

If that was the case, then all the thought she had spent on it for a long time would be in vain.

Therefore, Concubine You used the words just now to tie Zhu Xiuyuan to Emperor Chen's title of "Eternal Mingjun".

From now on, Zhu Xiuyuan will be the embodiment of Chen Huang's reputation as "Eternal Mingjun". He will be a proper person, which will greatly dispel any suspicion that may arise in Chen Huang's heart.

All Concubine You did was actually paving the way for the prince.

Speaking of the prince, suddenly a eunuch came from the East Palace. He entered the main hall and said: "Your Majesty, your concubine, tomorrow is the period of the martial arts examination. The prince is concerned about state affairs and also wants to go to the martial arts school to watch. Your Majesty." Please agree with the noble concubine."

"It's rare that the prince is interested, okay, okay, go ahead, I agree!" Emperor Chen was happy in his heart, and he agreed with a wave of his hand.

Concubine You next to her was actually still thinking about whether to let the prince go, but Emperor Chen made the decision and agreed, so Concubine You had nothing else to say and sent the eunuch of the East Palace back to resume his duties.

……

... Let's say that Zhu Xiuyuan and his party set out from Dong Yulou and soon returned to Jiangcheng Uncle's Mansion.

It was already dusk and the sky was starting to get dark. They were going back home to have dinner and then rest.

Naturally, Dong Yulou will not close its doors so early. In fact, since there is no curfew in Beijing, ordinary restaurants, etc., will never close...

Dong Shuyu is no longer in charge of Dong Yulou, and no one is afraid that Dong Yulou will collapse, because Dong Shuyu has actually trained many subordinates with extraordinary abilities, which are enough to support Dong Yulou's business in the evening.

Once Dong Yulou is completely on the right track, Dong Shuyu will withdraw from the restaurant, no longer sit in charge, and completely hand it over to the people below to take care of it.

In fact, she still likes the back hall of Dong's Tea House, which is relatively quiet.

On the way back, Zhu Xiuyuan sat in the same carriage with Dong Shuzhen. Because Zhu Xiuyuan occasionally talked about tomorrow's martial arts competition, Dong Shuzhen suddenly felt itchy in her heart, and her hands and feet were excited and had nowhere to put them.

Because she wanted to follow and watch the fun.

"No!" Zhu Xiuyuan refused flatly, and his face turned dark at the same time. He could rely on her for everything else, but this was a military exercise. The ministers of the court were gathered together, and Emperor Chen would also go.

Why is it appropriate to bring your family in that kind of occasion?
Even Yan Dashan and Zhu Xiuyuan couldn't bring them into the audience seat, so they had to go in alone, let alone a dragster who was obviously a woman.

Zhu Xiuyuan couldn't imagine that kind of scene.

"Husband, I can pretend to be your follower, or a book boy, a woman disguised as a man, no one can find out..." Dong Shuzhen would not give up this hugely fun opportunity easily, so in the carriage, she hugged Zhu Xiuyuan tightly hands, praying there.

"No, no, I can't say anything this time. This is a martial arts exercise. As a husband, I can only go in alone. How can I take you with me? No, my lady, don't say that!" Zhu Xiuyuan shook his head like a rattle .

He also turned his head away from looking at Dong Shuzhen's pitiful little appearance. He was afraid that it would be terrible if she suddenly lost control and agreed.

"Husband, when I was in Jiangzhou, didn't you bring me, Xia Wu, and Qiu Wen into the government office, and they weren't discovered? Husband, take me with you. I promise not to wander around, no. Don’t talk nonsense, don’t look nonsense either!”

As soon as Dong Shuzhen mentioned this matter, Zhu Xiuyuan's face darkened even more.

That time he took them into the state government office and stayed there all day, which made him anxious all day long. Thinking about it now, he was really tired.

Moreover, the school venue where this martial arts competition was held was not comparable to that of a small government office like Jiangzhou Prefecture Office?
Not to mention all the civil and military officials of the imperial court, even Emperor Chen and Concubine You will go. If something goes wrong, it will be very troublesome!

"Madam, it's not that I won't take you with me because of my husband, but this martial arts event is of no small importance. His Majesty is here. All the ministers we went to watch went alone. Even Yan Dashan could only stay outside... ..."

"No, husband, you can definitely think of a way to prepare for the martial arts competition..." Dong Shuzhen refused to give up until she achieved her goal, and actually "advised" Zhu Xiuyuan there.

Zhu Xiuyuan held his forehead, God, if he had known this, he wouldn't have said anything about martial arts to her.

This little lady of hers is a curious baby, and her curiosity is really overflowing with things she has never seen before and things she has never experienced.

I want to do everything, I want to see every scene...

The carriage swayed all the way to the gate of Jiangcheng Uncle's Mansion, and everyone got out of the car.

"Junior sister? What's wrong with you? Why are you so depressed? Could it be that senior brother bullied you?"

Li Qingnu and Li Jiye also followed, planning to have dinner at Jiangcheng Bofu before returning to the inn where they were staying.

Li Qingnu stepped out of the carriage and saw Dong Shuzhen at a glance, with a glum look on her face, her head lowered, and her mood was low, as if she had dropped tens of thousands of dollars.

As a close eldest sister, Li Qingnu came over immediately after discovering the abnormality and gently supported her, with a look of concern on her face and a very soft voice.

"Sister!"

As soon as Dong Shuzhen heard this, she plunged into Li Qingnu's arms. Her big eyes rolled, and her eyes were dotted and flickering, as if tears were about to burst out of her eyes.

Dong Shuzhen's move really shocked everyone.

Except for Zhu Xiuyuan who shook his head secretly, Li Jiye, Dong Shuyu, and the accompanying maids and servants all looked strange and confused.

What's going on here?I remember that when I got on the bus at Dong Yulou, I was still jumping up and down!

"Junior Sister? What's the matter with you? If you have any grievances, just say it, and Senior Sister will make the decision for you." Li Qingnu patted Dong Shuzhen's shoulder lightly, her voice was so soft that people would take her as a confession Object.

"Husband... Husband won't let me go... 嘤嘤嘤..." Dong Shuzhen shook her shoulders slightly and choked with sobs.

"Junior sister, why don't you let me go? Senior brother, why doesn't he let you go?" Li Qingnu asked patiently.

"I want to go and watch the martial arts competition tomorrow, but my husband won't let me..." Dong Shuzhen continued to choke, looking pitiful, as if she had been greatly wronged.
