The devil is coming

Chapter 366 Credentials
Early the next morning, a young eunuch came to the prince's residence and conveyed His Majesty's oral instructions announcing his entry into the palace.
Ji Chengjue did not rush into the palace early to wait, but slept until he was full, and then leisurely ate two bowls of meat porridge cooked by the He family's young lady, and then sat down on Zhang's bed with satisfaction. The carriage driven by the father-in-law headed towards the palace.
It's not that he brought it up on his own, it's just because he didn't attend the morning court. He went there early and waited in the palace. He had to wait until his father came after the court, and he was always waiting. Naturally, it was more comfortable to wait at home.
As for your most important attitude,
between their father and son,
There is really no need for too much cumbersome pretense.
Sitting in the imperial study, taking the initiative to drink two cups of tea, footsteps came from outside.
Ji Chengjue put down the tea cup and stood up immediately;
immediately,
Emperor Yan walked into the imperial study, glanced at Ji Chengjue who was standing in the corner, said nothing, and stretched out his arms. Wei Zhonghe personally helped Emperor Yan take off his dragon robe.
After the dragon robe was taken off and the new tea was served, Wei Zhonghe walked out of the imperial study with understanding and stood waiting at the door.
Since the palace prince left on Tianhu Mountain, Dayan's secret espionage department has been headed by his father-in-law Wei, both in name and in reality.
There are some things that others can't smell. If he can't smell them, then he will really have no shame in staying in this position.
The most important thing is that you can't kill the officials who came from Jinshi background to do something, but you can't kill them to silence them. It's really not that difficult to investigate the person behind the scenes.
But Wei Zhonghe only tasted it briefly, and stopped after finding out the shadow of the sixth prince.
Without Emperor Yan's will, it would be inconvenient for him to continue digging.
Standing at the door, Eunuch Wei couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
I was always used to seeing His Majesty being harsh to His Highness Sixth Prince,
But now it seems,
This Sixth Highness is by no means an easy-going master. You thought you had removed his wings long ago, but he can always give you some more "surprises".
This kind of skill and feeling made Eunuch Wei couldn't help but think of the time when he first entered the palace to serve His Majesty. His Majesty was young at that time, but in his actions, he already showed an air of "knowledge". .
It's just that unlike His Majesty, Your Majesty has always been excellent. Although the late Emperor made all kinds of absurdities when he was in power, he never wavered or was ambiguous on the matter of establishing the Crown Prince.
Eunuch Wei narrowed his eyes subconsciously and continued to wear a smile like the Maitreya Buddha on his face.
As a slave, he can only think about these treasonous things in his heart. He is not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Tian family.
In the imperial study,
Emperor Yan sat down.
Ji Chengjue stepped forward and saluted:
"My son pays respects to Father Emperor."
"Forget it."
"Thank you, Father."
"Tell me about the household affairs?"
"When I return to my father, I was originally planning to go to the palace tomorrow to ask for an audience."
said,
Ji Chengjue took out a thick booklet from his arms and took the initiative to send it to Emperor Yan's case without calling Eunuch Wei to come in.
"Father, this is what I have learned from observing the affairs of the household department over the past few days. I also have thirteen suggestions on how to improve the government of my money and grain merchants in the Yan Dynasty. Please take a look at it."
Emperor Yan put his palm on the fold and patted it gently.
What he asked about earlier was about the household department.
His son also answered about household matters;
And the so-called former Hubu Shangshu Xu Guanghuai was actually no longer a member of the Hubu at this time.
Do not,
It’s not even a human being.
Emperor Yan stretched out his hand to rub his brows tiredly. He had to be busy with many things in a day, so sometimes when he wanted to play a mental battle with his son, he often seemed a little unable to do what he wanted.
In fact, he knew in his heart that it was not that he was too tired, but that this son was really not an ordinary person.
"I'll look at it later."
"Yes, Father."
"What do you think about the alliance with Chu?" Emperor Yan asked.
Ji Chengjue remained silent.
Emperor Yan was waiting, thinking that his son was thinking;
After all, this is a big deal, and I cannot and dare not answer it rashly.
The emperor often questions the prince, and the prince must answer seriously.
But after taking two sips of tea, Emperor Yan found that his son was still just standing there with a dull expression, not thinking.
"talk."
Emperor Yan asked again.
Ji Chengjue bowed his head and said:
"If you want to reply to your father, I, my son, I have already finished reporting to you."
"Have you finished reporting?"
"Yes, Father."
Emperor Yan sighed, and then he adjusted his sitting posture, leaned to the right side of the chair, and pointed at Ji Chengjue.
Road:
"It's getting more and more presumptuous."
This is a warning.
But when Ji Chengjue heard these words, he couldn't help but think of what the man surnamed Zheng once said.
Use yourself,
I have to suppress myself again,
Very confused, right?
I know what you care about. You don't care about your family or relatives. All you care about is your world.
Over the years,
I was constantly being slashed and beaten.
Ji Chengjue has already figured out a set of countermeasures.
I am your son. The bottom line for you is that you can destroy your son as you like, but it is best not to kill him.
This is your mountain-like fatherly love.
Because I can help you manage your money and food, so that you can fulfill your long-cherished wish to unify all the Xia, so I can stand here, stand in front of you;
Because it was the Jinshi officials who made a collective revolt this time. For the sake of your eternal foundation, you would not attack them, but instead sacrificed Xu Guanghuai, who you used fairly smoothly.
The identity of father and son can no longer form a specific bond. People say that tiger poison will not eat its children, but in the case of my father, he will not eat his children, he just ignores them.
Then I can only hold on to the things you are most reluctant to part with to force you to make concessions and force you to tolerate me.
Am I presumptuous?
come on,
Young Master, when I came to Beijing this time, I already understood everything.
In his heart, he thought so, but in his mouth, Ji Chengjue still said in fear:
"My son doesn't dare."
Emperor Yan stared at his son and said nothing.
He dislikes this "concise and concise" conversation style.
Just one word to each other, we can understand each other.
No matter how complicated things are,
It seemed that after a few words, the exchange was over.
This is very inconsistent with the normal "communication" and "playing out" patterns.
But they both know it in their hearts, and one or two sentences can convey all the meaning.
In addition, there are no outsiders at the moment,
Is it possible that the father and son have to go out of their way to put on a show where you come and go and spend more time spitting?
Apart from anything else,
As a generation of emperors,
Your thoughts can be completely guessed by others, which is an extremely sensitive thing in itself.
At this moment, Eunuch Wei walked in and reported:
"Your Majesty, the prince is here."
"Let him in."
The prince came in, but when he saw Ji Chengjue who was also standing in the imperial study, he was still slightly surprised, but a warm and gentle smile immediately appeared on his face and he said:
"Sixth brother, you are here too. I haven't seen you for so many days, which makes me think a lot."
Ji Chengjue stood there without moving, his eyes wandering to the right;
If you pay attention at this time, Emperor Yan also made a similar action at this time.
obviously,
The father and son both chose to skip the hypocritical "enthusiasm" and "courtesy" towards His Royal Highness.
It's not that Ji Chengjue is aloof. In fact, he is not that sharp on weekdays. It's just that he hasn't broken away from the previous mode of communication with his father.
Emperor Yan also felt the same way. Seeing the prince standing in front of Ji Chengjue and greeting Ji Chengjue, the brothers were harmonious. Emperor Yan, who had just been uncomfortable with his sixth son talking to him too simply, suddenly felt a wave of pain. A deeper disgust.
He even had the urge to ask the prince,
I will give you a sword now,
Just kill your sixth brother.
Are you willing or not?
Of course, these thoughts can only move in my heart, just like Eunuch Wei who was standing at the door before.
The hardest thing in the world is the belly, because it can separate people's hearts.
It's hard for you to guess what that person is thinking under the disguise of skin.
The prince was not upset at being eaten cold. He just turned to face Emperor Yan and said:
"Father, all the details of the covenant have been finalized."
The prince spent a lot of effort to complete this covenant. It can be said that this is the first major event in the true sense that he has done after taking over the East Palace. He attaches great importance to it and is very cautious.
Although Xu Guanghuai's accident caused some disturbance to the alliance, it was not a big problem.
Emperor Yan nodded and said:
"Thank you for your hard work, Prince."
"I dare not take it seriously. This is my duty."
Wei Zhonghe came over and delivered a piece of paper to Emperor Yan.
Emperor Yan stretched out his hand, turned over the pages, and said:
"Okay, all of you, please step back. I'm tired."
The prince was stunned for a moment, he did not expect this situation.
A simple sentence of hard work, a simple polite sentence, and you just let yourself quit?
I have been working so hard these days, forgetting sleep and food, and I just want to dismiss it with such a light word?
Of course, the prince does not want any reward. As the prince of a country, he is already at the level where there is no reward. He can't let Emperor Yan abdicate and become the supreme emperor and give up his position to him, right?
Ji Chengjue looked at the prince's expression and wanted to laugh.
what's the matter,
Still want to hear the old man’s praise?
Let the old man kiss you, hug you and lift you high?
But soon,
Ji Chengjue frowned slightly.
Ah,
Why do you look down on others?
They were obviously laid by the same old bastard.
It just so happens that you are the father.
Am I the bastard?
Of course, at such an old age, there is nothing to be jealous about.
Put aside the outer layer of the prince's dress,
Both of our maternal clans were bulldozed by the one above. My mother left early, and your mother is also hysterical. What will it taste like for these two little bastards to eat here?
Thinking of this,
Ji Chengjue looked up at Emperor Yan who was sitting on top.
Hey,
Old bastard.
Everyone has his or her own thoughts, which may be dark or rebellious, but they are all cleverly concealed with disguises.
"My son retire!"
"My son retire!"
Ji Chengjue and the prince walked out of the imperial study together. Outside the imperial study was the imperial garden.
The prince seemed not to continue the drama of brothers and sisters, but stopped first, and Ji Chengjue also stopped.
"You know about Xu Shangshu, right?"
Ji Chengjue nodded and replied, "I heard something."
"Aren't you watching the wind in Hubu?"
Your boss in the household department was kicked down, and you just heard about it?
"The prince is joking. My brother, I just click on the knot in the household department. There is nothing else to do."
"Sixth brother, you are talented. I have no doubt about this, brother."
"Your Majesty, you are a great example to us."
"Do more serious things for the country and your family."
"I will obey the prince's teachings."
As if he felt that these words were a bit harsh, the prince hesitated for a moment and then said:
"Are you free today?"
"What is the prince's order?"
"A servant at home has brought some game. You know, I am not used to eating these, but the princess should like it. You can pick up a portion yourself, and send the rest to the West Garden for me."
"My dear brother, I understand. Thank you very much for the reward, Crown Prince."
The wedding was interrupted due to the war.
Moreover, according to customs and etiquette, newlyweds are not allowed to meet in private before they get married. Therefore, it is not appropriate for the prince to go to the West Garden now, as it will appear very rude.
At this point, Ji Chengjue was not as comfortable as Ji Chengjue. His marriage to the young lady of the He family had not been officially arranged, but he still directly arranged for her to live in his mansion.
Ok,
Because my uncle-in-law doesn’t dare to swing a knife at him now.
But Li Liangshen next to the princess,
But he dares to swing his sword at the prince.
"Sixth brother, after the covenant is concluded, you can also come and accompany me on my wedding day."
When the last big wedding started,
Ji Chengjue is not in the wedding team.
He was wearing a policeman's uniform and sitting in Quande Building eating duck.
Now, he is back, legitimately back, and he needs to invite himself as a matter of course.
Obviously, the prince had already suspected Xu Guanghuai's downfall, but Ji Chengjue didn't even think of hiding it from his father, so how could he still be afraid of being known by the prince?
"This is my brother's honor."
"You and I, brothers, why are we so different from each other?"
"Prince, there is a difference between king and minister."
"Ugh………"
The prince sighed, turned around, and left first.
He was going to the side hall, and he had his own matters to deal with.
Ji Chengjue, on the other hand, wanted to leave the palace and return to the prince's residence, so he took a different route.
We walked to the palace gate and got on the carriage driven by Eunuch Zhang.
Eunuch Zhang said while driving:
"Master, the East Palace is starting to purchase things again. Perhaps they are preparing for the second wedding."
"The prince just invited me to accompany him on his wedding day."
"Shall I prepare some gifts these days?"
Ji Chengjue shook his head,
Road:
"The knot cannot be formed."
……
In the imperial study,
Emperor Yan was looking at the book that Ji Chengjue had presented previously in his hand.
Wei Zhonghe came over to refill the tea and reminded in a low voice:
"Your Majesty, is it time for lunch?"
Emperor Yan put down the book in his hand,
Unknowingly, I actually looked at this booklet for a while, nodded and said:
"Pass the meal."
"Yes."
Wei Zhonghe turned around and prepared to go down to pass the meal.
"and also………"
Wei Zhonghe immediately turned around and waited for instructions.
Emperor Yan pointed to the pile of documents about the covenant that the prince had sent to him on the left side of his table.
Wei Zhonghe knew that His Majesty had not read these details at all.
"I told Zhao Jiulang and the others that I have read the details of the covenant carefully and there is nothing wrong with it;
Approved in red and printed on it,
Let them prepare official credentials and send them to Yupan City as soon as possible. "
