Daming: Dad, you are really not good at governing the country

Chapter 359: No matter what the cost, we must restore the former Qingming Palace to its former glory
In the ancient and solemn Prince Jin's Mansion, the sunlight is like golden threads, slowly falling on the courtyard.

The bluestone slabs in the courtyard, although worn out by the years, have been wiped clean.

It is like a silent mirror, reflecting the vicissitudes of the Prince Jin's Mansion.

In the corner of the courtyard, several beautiful peonies dance lightly in the breeze.

The petals are as delicate as silk and colorful.

Red as fire, pink as smoke, white as winter snow.

It's like a group of fairies in gorgeous clothes dancing gracefully.

On the petals, the crystal dewdrops sparkle like diamonds, like bright pearls.

Zhang Changshi was wearing a dark blue robe with delicate patterns embroidered with gold thread.

There is a black belt around the waist, inlaid with an emerald green jade pendant.

He has a slender figure, a thin face, and deep and wise eyes.

Just like bright stars, it illuminates the way forward for Prince Jin's Mansion.

At this moment, Zhang Changshi raised his chin slightly and looked at Li Fengci in front of him.

He asked slowly: "Then tell me, how do you plan to improve yourself?"

Li Fengci is of medium build and slightly thin.

He was wearing grey clothes, which were slightly whitish in places, showing that he had been wearing them for a long time.

Although the fabric of the clothes was not luxurious, it was washed very cleanly.

There are several delicate patches on the corners of the clothes with fine stitches, which shows the care of the tailor.

His hair was a little messy, with a few strands hanging in front of his forehead, looking a little dry.

It looks as if it has not been carefully cared for for a long time, and has a light brown luster in the sun, like dead grass swaying in the wind.

The facial features are clearly defined and the eyebrows are slightly raised, like two crescent moons.

The eyes under his eyebrows were bright, with determination and regret intertwined in them, like two burning flames.

His nose was straight and his nostrils were slightly flaring, like a vigilant deer breathing nervously.

His lips were chapped and slightly pale, but he pursed them tightly.

Like a taut string, it reveals the inner determination.

His skin is slightly yellow, showing signs of long-term hard work.

There is a shallow scratch on his cheek, perhaps it was accidentally touched while he was busy, just like the mark left by time on his face.

When Li Fengci heard Zhang Changshi's question, he was stunned at first.

My heart is like a lake with a small stone thrown into it, causing ripples to appear.

At this moment, he was thinking in his heart: My ridiculous behavior these days has indeed caused trouble for everyone.

Now that Lord Changshi has given me this opportunity, I must seize it.

But Li Fengci felt a little uneasy in his heart. The Chief Secretary had always been strict. Could he really meet his expectations?
Then he lowered his head and thought for a moment.

The clenched fist trembled slightly, like a piece of hard stone, revealing the inner tension.

Then Li Fengci raised his head, his eyes full of determination.

He said in a deep voice: "Master Changshi, I will study hard day and night and sincerely ask for advice from experienced seniors.

I will shoulder more responsibilities and take on more tasks, and make up for my mistakes with concrete actions."

After saying this, Li Fengci blinked mischievously, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

She showed a shy smile, like a little flower blooming in the sun.

This small action seemed to be to cheer himself up, and also seemed to be to show his determination to Zhang Changshi.

At this moment, he secretly vowed in his heart that he must make changes and let everyone see a different side of himself.

At the same time, Li Fengci felt both awe and gratitude towards Zhang Changshi.

I stand in awe of his majesty and fairness, and I am grateful that he is willing to give me a chance to reform after I make a mistake.

When Zhang Changshi saw Li Fengci like this, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes.

He nodded slightly, with the corners of his mouth raised.

Zhang Changshi smiled faintly, like a spring breeze blowing on his face. He gently stroked his long, white beard, which shone silver in the sun, like strands of soft silver threads.

His eyes were full of anticipation, as if he saw Li Fengci's future growth, like a wise elder looking forward to the bright future of his juniors.

Zhang Changshi said softly: "I hope you can remember what I said today and prove yourself with concrete actions.

After all, the prosperity of the Jin Palace requires the dedication of everyone. "

Zhu Gang was standing in the spacious and luxurious study at this moment.

The light in the study was a little dim, and the walls were covered with famous calligraphy and paintings.

The bookshelves are filled with ancient books and documents, like a treasure trove of knowledge.

Zhu Gang was wearing a purple brocade robe embroidered with golden dragon patterns, which made him look particularly majestic, like a king ruling the world.

He is tall and has a stern face.

There was a sense of majesty in his eyes, like a sharp sword, which made people dare not look directly at him.

At this moment, Zhu Gang called Zhang Long, the commander of the Hidden Dragon Guard, to his study with a serious expression.

He paced back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back. Each step was heavy and powerful, as if beating the drum of fate.

Zhu Gang said in a deep voice: “This matter of Li Fengci must not be let go lightly.

We must seize this opportunity to vigorously rectify the atmosphere in the palace and show no leniency.

Go and investigate thoroughly to see if there are any other people with similar evil intentions, and don't let any of them go!"

Zhu Gang's voice was deep and powerful, echoing in the study.

It was like an order that could not be disobeyed, or like rolling thunder.

Zhu Gang frowned and walked with heavy steps.

The dim light in the study seemed to reflect his heavy mood at the moment.

Looking at those precious ancient books and calligraphy and paintings, Zhu Gang had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

He knew that as the lord of the palace, it was his unshirkable responsibility to maintain the honor and order of the family.

What happened to Li Fengci today is by no means accidental; there may be deeper problems hidden behind it.

Zhu Gang couldn't help but worry about the future of the palace. If he couldn't take this opportunity to thoroughly rectify the atmosphere, he was afraid that the palace would fall into a deeper crisis.

In this solemn atmosphere, the quaint bookshelves and old calligraphy and paintings seem to be silently telling the story of the palace’s former glory and the challenges it faces today.

Zhu Gang secretly made up his mind: no matter what the cost, he must restore the palace to its former clarity and prosperity.

At the same time, in the quaint house of Li Fengci family.

When the elders learned of his ridiculous behavior in the palace, they all shook their heads and sighed.

The ground in the yard is paved with pebbles with exquisite patterns, and the pebbles look like sleeping gems.

In the middle of the yard, there is an ancient well.

The stones beside the well have been worn smooth by time, like a silent old man, witnessing the rise and fall of the family.

The elders of the Li family were dressed in simple clothes, their hair was a little gray, and their faces were full of wrinkles.

They are like ancient books, carrying the family's history and wisdom.

At this moment, the elders of the Li family sat together, talking a lot.

Li Fengci's wife, Liu, was wearing a light blue dress with a few small flowers embroidered on the hem.

She had a pretty face, but her eyes were full of worry, like a flower shrouded in dark clouds.

Her hair was neatly pulled back and tied with a blue ribbon.

The ribbon is like a lively stream, adding a touch of softness to Liu.

At this moment, Liu burst into tears, crying about the difficulties and obstacles her family would face in the future.

Tears rolled down like beads that had broken off the string and dripped onto the ground, splashing small drops of water, like broken hearts.

However, as she cried, she suddenly remembered some funny things that Li Fengci did in his daily life, and her tears started to laugh.

There is a hint of helplessness in the smile, and the crying and laughing appearance makes people laugh, just like the unpredictable weather in this spring.
