Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 339
As the breeze blew, the palace lanterns outside Qianqing Palace couldn't help shaking a few times, the weak candle lights seemed to be extinguished, and the sound of beating watches in the distance gradually faded away.

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but sneezed. During the day, ever since he saw Hai Lanzhu, this person's face seemed to be engraved in his mind, and the graceful figure was always lingering in his mind.

Zhu Youxiao, who has always been able to concentrate, is unable to deal with the backlog of various government affairs, and even has an inexplicable irritability, and a sense of slack after being an emperor for a long time is getting stronger and stronger.

The eunuch Liu Ruoyu, who was on duty, came in. Seeing Zhu Youxiao flipping through the same memorandum in boredom, and seeing that His Majesty seemed to be in a bad mood, he couldn't help saying cautiously:
"Your Majesty, Mr. Li Ge is asking to see you."

"Li Mingrui? It's so late, what is he doing here?" Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but look up at the big clock newly developed by the Royal Industrial Company and several missionaries. It looks like a little bit, but why does it feel like it's been a long time.

Since it is a cabinet scholar asking for an interview, it must not be a trivial matter.

Zhu Youxiao felt that no matter how anxious he was to have a taste of beauty, he had to do his duty as a ruler of the empire, so he said, "Let him come in, and go and talk about a mantra of pure heart."

Liu Ruoyu responded, although he is an eunuch, he is also a high-level intellectual from the inner academy, and his knowledge is no less than that of the Jinshi from the outer court, so he can play the Qingxin mantra very well, unconsciously, Zhu The internal fire in the school has also been suppressed a lot.

"I have seen Your Majesty", Li Mingrui has also grown a beard now, and there are a few traces of hoarfrost under the brim of the black gauze hat with cloud patterns, which is more stable than before.

Zhu Youxiao yawned, lay on his back on the throne, pointed to a cushion and said, "Sit down, don't be restrained, are you guarding Xinuang Pavilion today?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving me your seat." But for some reason, Li Mingrui seemed very polite tonight, unlike in the past when he was a little casual in front of the king Zhu Youxiao. After he was seated, he replied respectfully: " Reporting back to Your Majesty, today is indeed a humble official on duty, and seeing that the lights here are still on, Your Majesty, I came here to ask to see Your Majesty."

"Well", Zhu Youxiao responded lightly. He has been the emperor for so long, and he can be considered to have grasped the minds of these officials, especially these very popular and close officials of the emperor. Once there is something bad to say , he would always deliberately put his attitude extremely correct first, so seeing Li Mingrui like this, he couldn't help turning cold: "Tell me, what's the matter."

Li Mingrui bowed slightly: "Now that the imperial guards have won the victory and swept the Horqin and Khalkha tribes, Mr. Lu Ge has contributed a lot, and the group of students from the Royal Military Academy have achieved unexpected results. The record is really gratifying, and I even heard that they brought a prisoner named Hai Lanzhu into the capital and dedicated it to His Majesty?"

Zhu Youxiao nodded and didn't say anything. He wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in Li Mingrui's gourd.

"Your Majesty, I have a merciless request." Li Mingrui was relieved when he saw that Zhu Youxiao had accepted. He was afraid that Zhu Youxiao would not admit it, but now it seems that he has saved a lot of tongue, so he Knelt down directly.

"Get up, if you have something to say, it doesn't have to be like this," Zhu Youxiao replied.

Li Mingrui wiped his forehead pretending to be nervous: "My minister, please cut Hai Lanzhu immediately!"

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help being stunned, because Li Mingrui said this very loudly and powerfully, and it was beyond his expectation. Li Mingrui, who has always been as old and cunning as Qian Qianyi (although Li Mingrui is not old at all), would actually Suddenly let himself behead Hai Lanzhu!
"Why?" Zhu Youxiao asked through gritted teeth. He probably guessed some reasons, but he still couldn't help asking Li Mingrui.

"There are three reasons. One is that Hai Lanzhu is the daughter of Mongolia, and it is not appropriate for His Majesty to accept it; the other is that many beauties are disasters, and His Majesty will be degraded by her beauty; the third is that the soldiers are the first to offer beauties." Said.

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help getting closer to Li Mingrui, and seeing that he was sweating on his forehead, he knew that he was brave enough to come here, so he couldn't help but turn his anger into a smile, and patted Li Mingrui on the head with the memorial: "Do you think you are alive?" too long."

"Your Majesty! If you want to be an emperor through the ages, you should be like this. Mingjun has always done this since ancient times." Li Mingrui's words made Zhu Youxiao angry and angry. He really wanted to kick Li Mingrui away, because he He didn't expect that the person he single-handedly picked up would learn to kidnap him morally, and he couldn't help cursing secretly, when did he say that he would be an emperor through the ages and a wise king!
"No!"

Zhu Youxiao only answered these two words. If Li Mingrui knew the fun, he would retreat in spite of the difficulties. If he didn't know the fun, it's no wonder that he had to be cruel once.

But Li Mingrui is also smart, and hurriedly said: "If your majesty does not want to give up, I have the courage to ask your majesty to give Hai Lanzhu to death immediately after kissing Fangze tonight!"

Zhu Youxiao froze, and only then did he realize that Li Mingrui might have been playing psychological tactics with him from the beginning, and it was only at this moment that he came up with the most real suggestion.

In order to show the people of the world that he is a wise king through the ages, he had to kill Hai Lanzhu to prove that he is not greedy for beauty, but as a man, a male animal with a bisexual life, there is no way to get rid of the temptation of this beauty. , especially this kind of temptation that is at your fingertips, but Li Mingrui has perfectly solved this problem.

"Li Mingrui, Li Mingrui, good Li Mingrui!"

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but smiled wryly. He didn't know how to evaluate Li Mingrui, but he had to admit that he didn't let him enter the cabinet for nothing and became his most caring minister.

"I can consider your advice, you go down", Zhu Youxiao did not give Li Mingrui a clear answer, although he knew that this might be a good choice, but he didn't want to make himself so hypocritical and cruel, and even Some resist doing this.

No matter how you say it, Hai Lanzhu is still a person, she also has the right to live, even if she is not beautiful, she is just an ordinary captive, it is too much to take her life by herself, now she has to occupy her body first and then take her life If I do this, I am afraid that I will not even recognize myself in the future.

Li Mingrui also understood Zhu Youxiao's entanglement in his heart, and he didn't dare to force him. As a Confucian official, he had to persuade his majesty not to abolish the great cause of ZTE because of his beauty, and he was unwilling to show that things must be against him. political future.

Zhu Youxiao didn't know how long he had been in a daze in Qianqing Palace. He didn't come back to his senses until Wang Chengen appeared in front of him instead of Liu Ruoyu and said that everything was ready.

In the end, Zhu Youxiao still chose to go to Hai Lanzhu's place. He didn't know how to face it next, but now he just wanted to be an absurd emperor, which might not be a big deal at all.
