During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

Prince Li and his clan members knelt in front of the palace gate to plead for the people of his clan. On the surface, it seemed that both were prosperous and both were harmed, but privately, most officials still did not want His Majesty to show his dignity to those who broke the law.

Once such a start is made, the consequences will be endless.

Although the ministers still hope that His Majesty will be more merciful, they are treating them, the people, and the clan members as they should, and it is best not to show mercy.

That's how people are, they don't care about anything that matters to them.

"Do you think His Majesty will be soft-hearted?" Huang Shuli couldn't help but chat with Hu Jijiu.

It was originally the day of Xiu Mu, but autumn was about to begin. During this period, the Ministry of Rites and Guozixue were the busiest, let alone Xiu Mu. There is almost no time to take a shower.

Hu Jijiu pinched the bridge of his nose and pressed it. He looked at the sky and it was already dark. He was afraid that he would not be able to leave the palace again today.

"What did you say?"

Huang Shuli glanced at Hu Jijiu's ears suspiciously, seriously suspecting that he was too old to hear clearly.

"Let me ask, do you think His Majesty will be soft-hearted?"

"No." Hu Jijiu said almost without thinking.

"Why?" Huang Shuli looked at him from outside.

Hu Jijiu glanced at him and said, "You are also His Majesty's teacher. Don't you know His Majesty's temper?"

Huang Shuli laughed dryly, "I have only taught your Majesty for a few years, and I don't know him as well as you do. Besides, your majesty has been living among the people for so many years, and his temperament has long been different from before."

Hu Jijiu snorted, did you think he understood?
In fact, since His Majesty came back, Hu Jijiu couldn't understand this student most of the time.

But he always believed in His Majesty.

"No matter how much your Majesty changes, his character will not change. His Majesty has a temper that would rather break than bend, especially when it comes to those close to him."

Hu Jijiu said: "Even if your Majesty doesn't like people from the royal family, after all, they are all named Luo, so your Majesty naturally hopes that they will be well."

Being connected by blood, His Majesty alone is not enough. The Luo family is what Your Majesty has in mind. Of course, the greater wish is to bring good to everyone in the world.

Huang Shuli thought thoughtfully, "That's true, but judging from their looks, they clearly don't understand His Majesty's painstaking efforts. Who is Your Majesty doing this for? It's not for them."

At this time, Huang Shuli's pupils shrank, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Your Majesty has finally softened his heart."

Hu Jijiu followed his gaze and shook his head, "I'm afraid it's not His Majesty's handiwork."

"Is it the queen's?"

Hu Jijiu stroked his beard and smiled so hard that he couldn't even see his teeth.

"The Queen is so virtuous. She is not only smart but also quick and eager to learn. She is not ashamed to ask questions, and she is humble and polite. She can figure out how to use pinyin to improve learning. This is enough to surpass many men."

Huang Shuli also has a good sense of Jiang Miao. The Ministry of Rites mostly deals with the palace and diplomacy. The empress is easy to get along with, and in some aspects they will have less trouble.

"The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War have made a lot of money from the cement recipe, and privately they have rave reviews for the Queen, even more than Your Majesty. Marquis Xuanwen is not well-known in the court, and Princess Protector has recently donated money and food to the disaster area. , it would be great if all the royal relatives were like this."

Indeed!
Except for Jiang Qian, everyone in the Jiang family stayed in their hometown peacefully. This alone was much better than many relatives.

Huang Shuli asked again: "By the way, I heard that the Queen is planning to open a school in the nursery hall, and even the master is seconded from Guozixue?"

"Yes." Hu Jijiu picked up the tea and took a sip, "You should have a drink too!"

Huang Shuli shook his head. It was easy to go to the latrine after drinking too much. He didn't want to move anymore.

“There’s no charge for taking classes?”

Hu Jijiu coughed lightly, and his eyes averted for a moment, "The Queen said that the money should be calculated according to the class hours." "Oh..."

He knew that there is no free lunch in the world.

Having said that, even if His Majesty is merciful to the people of the clan, he may not be merciful to the ministers, so whether to forgive the people of the royal family does not seem to mean anything.

Many officials and censors also stayed in the palace to wait for further developments. If His Majesty misbehaves, they can dissuade him in time.

By the way, you can also watch the excitement.

Such excitement doesn't always exist.

Normally those royal relatives would like to grow their eyes to the top of their heads, but now they are wilted!

Live it!

Not long after, Feng Jizhong appeared at the gate of the palace, which shocked the exhausted people. They couldn't help but look at Feng Jizhong's hand, and found that there was nothing in it, so they started staring at his face again.

Could it be that His Majesty has changed his mind?

He looked down at the group of people with a condescending smile, "Prince Li, dear princes, Your Majesty is kind and worried that you would catch a cold at night and sent us ginger soup. It can warm you up."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Nothing else?

Everyone was confused, it shouldn't be, why is it different from what they thought, is there something wrong?

Prince Li's face was gloomy as he stared at the little chamberlain delivering the ginger soup to everyone's hands. He didn't show it on his face, but he was slightly annoyed and unhappy in his heart.

Prince Su felt the warmth of the ginger soup, but felt a little chilly in his heart. He crossed over to Prince Li and asked Feng Jizhong, "Did your Majesty say anything else?"

The corners of Feng Jizhong's mouth raised slightly, "What does Prince Su want to hear?"

"..." Prince Su was stunned for a moment, too embarrassed to know what to say.

Fengji Center hummed twice, and his eyes fell on Prince Li.

"Prince Li, now that you are no longer an imperial minister, someone will go to the house tomorrow to demolish some constructions. There is nothing we can do about it. You are the most reasonable. Don't make things difficult for the people of the Ministry of Rites."

There are three, six or nine levels of people, and the treatment enjoyed by super-first-grade princes and ordinary princes is naturally different.

This sentence is equivalent to confirming the fact that Prince Li is no longer Zongling.

Prince Li knelt straight and said in an unhurried manner: "Whatever, I don't care about this. It's just that besides me, who does your Majesty intend to let take over Zong Ling's position? Ordinary people can't do it."

"How come Prince Li has a good candidate?"

Prince Li opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Feng Jizhong seemed to have thought of something and said: "Not your son, Your Majesty, Prince Li has received your true inheritance since he was a child. His behavior and actions are exactly the same as yours. He will never choose him."

"..." Prince Li's face turned red.

The atmosphere in the Discipline Center was extremely lively. Seeing that every prince had drank ginger soup, he cleared his throat and said loudly: "Princes, please kneel down. Your Majesty has said that the palace door will be open for you tonight. The princes can kneel for as long as they want."
