Chapter 713 Virtuous (I)

Seeing the Zheng family's excitement was indeed a joy. If it fell on his own family, let alone 50%, even if he had to give out 10% or 20%, it would be enough to make Prime Minister Wang's heart ache.

Prime Minister Wang turned hostile and chased him away. Wang Jin had no choice but to get up. Before leaving, he left behind some infuriating words: "Take advantage of the fact that the emperor has just ascended the throne and voluntarily give up a part of the family property, so that you can still leave your office with dignity and retire. Otherwise, if the emperor turns hostile in the future, our Wang family will be in real trouble."

What responded to Wang Jin was a roar of "roll" and a beauty bottle that was thrown at him.

Wang Jin was unable to dodge and was hit in the lower abdomen by the beauty bottle. He was in so much pain that he held his waist and couldn't get up.

The precious porcelain vase fell straight to the ground and broke into pieces.

Prime Minister Wang looked at Wang Jin, who was sweating from the pain, and his anger was quickly driven away by regret: "Someone, go and get the imperial physician immediately."

After the ground was cleaned up, the imperial physician came over and checked Wang Jin's waist and abdomen. After confirming that the silt was only an external injury and nothing serious, Prime Minister Wang breathed a sigh of relief.

As a father, there is no reason for me to apologize to my son.

Prime Minister Wang coughed awkwardly and said, "Go back and apply some medicine on your wounds and have a good rest. Don't go to the palace to work tomorrow. Please excuse yourself because you are ill. Come back when you are well."

Wang Jin said nothing and slowly left with the help of his attendant.

Prime Minister Wang let out a long sigh.

However, it is absolutely impossible for him to voluntarily give up his family property. At most, he will shrink back and stop being greedy.

……

The next morning, Wang Jin still got up early and entered the palace.

I wonder how angry Prime Minister Wang will be when he finds out.

Jiang Shaohua had eaten well and slept well these days, his belly had grown bigger, and he walked steadily. However, Cui Du was worried, and he followed Jiang Shaohua wherever he went.

The important officials who attended the small court meeting also learned the difference between Lord Changning and Lord Changning these days. Lord Changning only understood half of the government affairs, never interrupted, and never expressed any opinions. He was almost invisible. The only thing Lord Changning cared about was the health of the Empress.

Walk slower, sit still, drink some water, eat some snacks, and get up and walk around when you feel tired.

These are the words that Earl Changning often said.

She really looks like a virtuous husband. She is much better than the Empress Dowager Zheng who loved to meddle in government affairs when she was the queen.

Cui Du helped the Empress into the main hall.

Jiang Shaohua sat down steadily on the dragon chair and glanced at Wang Jin, who looked normal. "Minister Wang, I heard that you had an argument with Prime Minister Wang last night and suffered some injuries. Why don't you take a leave to rest for two days?"

Prime Minister Wang has an all-informed ear, and Jiang Shaohua, the emperor, is also well-informed. The quarrel between father and son that took place in Prime Minister Wang's study last night was quickly heard by the emperor.

Wang Jin replied, "My words were not pleasing to the ear, and my father got angry and threw a vase at me, causing some external injuries. After applying some medicine and resting for a night, I have almost recovered. I am now in the palace to serve as a judge."

Minister Zhang, Minister Dai, and Minister Zhou couldn't help but look at Wang Jin together.

The Prime Minister's party fell apart and its power was greatly weakened, all thanks to Wang Jin. When the Empress asked casually, Wang Jin "sold out" his own father. He is really a filial son.

Jiang Shaohua smiled slightly and said, "Father and son have different positions and political views, so it is inevitable that they have occasional disputes. Since you can hold on and don't want to take leave, it's up to you." Wang Jin bowed and thanked the emperor for his grace.

The ministers couldn't help but glance at Marquis Changning again.

As the Minister of Agriculture, Earl Changning stood behind the elderly ministers. In terms of standing position, he was not as close to the Empress as Wang Jin was! Seeing that Wang Jin was so favored by the Empress and had the demeanor of a close confidant of the Emperor, was Earl Changning really not jealous at all?
Cui Du looked back in confusion.

What does it mean that they all look at him?
Apart from her extremely noble identity as the Empress of Daliang, Jiang Shaohua is a rare beauty in the world. She is heroic when she kills people with a gun, has a decisive temperament and sharp means, and is broad-minded and kind. Who can not admire such a woman?

Wang Jin has been in love with Jiang Shaohua for a long time. If Jiang Shaohua is interested in Wang Jin, it won't be his turn.

Since Jiang Shaohua chose him as her husband, it was obvious that he was the one she liked. What was there for him, a winner, to be jealous of a loser in love?
After the court was dismissed, Jiang Shaohua left behind Ji Shangshu, Chen Changshi and Wang Jin to discuss matters.

Cui Du also stayed.

Cui Du was so confused by the court affairs that he simply emptied his mind and focused on his empress. Jiang Shaohua frowned slightly, and he became nervous. Relying on the fact that there were few people, he shamelessly approached the dragon throne and said, "We have been busy for half a day. Let's take a break and have lunch before discussing matters!"

When Jiang Shaohua was busy, only Cui Du dared to advise her like this.

Jiang Shaohua nodded slightly: "Chen Sheren went to the imperial kitchen to serve the meal, and Minister Ji, Chen Changshi and Wang Zhongshuling all stayed in the palace to eat with me."

Being able to have lunch with the emperor was a great favor. Minister Ji and others immediately bowed their hands in thanks.

Cui Du helped Jiang Shaohua get up and took a walk outside the hall to enjoy the breeze and sun.

Wang Jin silently glanced at the figure of Her Majesty the Empress, then quickly looked away.

"Does it give you a headache after listening to this?" Jiang Shaohua joked.

Cui Du smiled and said, "It's really a headache. I feel drowsy after listening for a long time. The government affairs in the court are numerous and complicated. Sitting on the dragon throne is really a hard job."

Jiang Shaohua was so amused that he chuckled.

After a walk, he had lunch, took a half-hour nap, and continued to deal with government affairs.

Cui Du saw this, feeling distressed and helpless. Sitting on the throne, becoming the emperor of Daliang, holding the supreme imperial power, Jiang Shaohua shouldered a heavy responsibility. He had no time to rest.

In the evening, we have to go to Jingyang Palace.

Ever since the Anguo Mansion removed the plaque and donated the family business, Empress Dowager Zheng fell ill. Whether it was a real illness or a fake one, Jiang Shaohua, as a junior, had to take time out every day to visit Jingyang Palace.

Empress Dowager Zheng was lying on the bed, her face was pale, her eyes were dim, and there were still traces of tears on her face. It was obvious that she had just cried, and she wiped her tears when she heard that Jiang Shaohua had come.

In addition to Eunuch Lin, there was also Eunuch Zhao, who had just recovered from a stick injury and came to serve by the bed.

Eunuch Zhao had also lost some weight, and his face no longer had the vigor and vitality of the past. He looked much more reserved: "Your servant respectfully welcomes the emperor and the Earl of Changning."

"Eunuch Zhao, please stand up without formalities." Jiang Shaohua has always been fond of Eunuch Zhao, and his tone is very gentle: "I haven't seen Eunuch Zhao for some time, and I have been thinking about him. When I saw him today, Eunuch Zhao looked good, so I was relieved."

Eunuch Zhao hurriedly responded respectfully, "Your Majesty is busy with government affairs, but he still took time out to care about me. I am flattered and ashamed to accept this."
