The Palace of Peach and Plum

Chapter 44



Chapter 44:

The steward of the Royal Palace and the steward of Lingfu came out to greet the two masters, and found that they were both drifting away when they got off the carriage.

Li Yin is happy.

Ling Wei was scared.

After Li Yin robbed him of a white meal, he thought he was going to give Ling Wei a buffer, so he didn’t ask aggressively, and then Ling Wei kept his head blank until he went home.

Feng Ning thought that Ling Wei was too tired, so he hurriedly asked people to wait for Ling Wei to go to bed for a nap, wait for lunch in the kitchen, and then let Ling Wei get up.

Ling Wei was lying on the bed with his eyes open for a long time before he came back to his senses. What Li Ying said was that the emperor and the queen not only knew about it, but also agreed to it?

Does the empress know whether Li Ying is interesting to herself, or is she interesting to Li Ying? Or both?

Perhaps it was made clear by Li Yin, and Ling Wei himself was not stupid. After thinking about the behavior of the empress, he suddenly became clear as if he had opened up the two lines of Ren and Du.

Ling Wei remembered that although the empress treated herself very well, for a while, she suddenly treated herself better and trusted herself a little bit more than before. He taught the prince alone, and often reminded himself to test the three yuan and the third, it seemed that it was after Li Yin came back.

Maybe Li Ying had already confessed by then?

Is the empress’s guilt and weird affection because he feels that Li Ying has ruined herself?

Yes, even though he had watched Li Yin’s beauty at that time, he was just simply appreciating the beauty and would not let the empress see the clues.

In today’s incident, it is estimated that the empress also saw her hidden feelings and deliberately “matched”. Otherwise, in the palace, sleeping on foot, there is only a quilt or something… But for this kind of thing, is the empress… the method is too rough? Although this is not the harem, it is also the palace of the palace. They are full of this kind of “matching” thing, is it really good? Also… too open, right?

How did Ling Wei feel that not only did the empress do not stop, she was…cooperative? Is this too cooperative? its not right. How do you say, that masculine place

An elegant matter is not a business matter. Maybe the empress doesn’t care about him and Li Yin playing casually, but Li Ying’s meaning seems to be that he will never marry a wife and have children. How could this empress act like this?

Is it true that although he trusts Li Yin, he also guards against Li Yin, so Li Yin cuts off his children and grandchildren to sit and watch?

Ling Wei shook his head.

Not right.

No matter how well the empress concealed it, from his observations, the empress was sincere and sincere to Li Yin, and he would never think so. Moreover, Li Yin also trusted and respected the emperor very much. If the emperor was not at ease, he would choose the princess for Li Yin. The eldest brother is like a father, Li Yin’s marriage is the emperor’s final say.

Ling Wei thought about it, but felt that the empress’s approach was not consistent with common sense. To say that the empress is really enlightened and feels that true love is invincible. It doesn’t care about men and women. It doesn’t care about gender. It doesn’t care about the inheritance of children… Hehe, modern parents can’t do it. Ancient times value children hundreds of times than modern times. How could they not care? Moreover, for the male lover not to marry and not have children, it is not an affair, but a huge scandal. For the sake of the royal family’s face, the empress would never let Li Ying do this.

But Li Yin’s words did not seem to be false, nor did the empress’ attitude towards him seem to be false. Ling Wei couldn’t understand it in his heart, and was uneasy, how could he dare to just respond like this.

Wait, the empress knew about it and acquiesced… well, it wasn’t acquiescence, but also personally matched it, is he willing or not, is it really useful?

Regardless of the reason, since Li Ying has smoothed the emperor’s road, is he still a man if he doesn’t pounce on it? Jijiwaiwai missed the chance to throw the beauty down, he is not really stupid!

Ling Wei turned over and got up. Uh, I figured it out, let’s get up and have a meal first. To tell the truth, the things in the palace really don’t taste as good as their own.

“Master, don’t sleep for a while?” Feng Ning said in surprise, “Master is tired, let’s rest a while, the food in the kitchen is not ready yet.”

“I won’t sleep anymore.” Ling Wei coughed dryly and said calmly, “It’s almost open, don’t hurry up and ask the prince to come over for dinner.”

“Okay.” Because Li Ying and Ling Wei ate together every day, Feng Ning didn’t think it was wrong, so he went directly to Xiaomen and said to the person opposite.

Screamed.

Although Li Ying was delighted in his heart, he also knew that Ling Wei needed to be slowed down for a while. When he heard Ling Wei asking him to eat, he was still stunned for a while.

“The prince?” The waiter was also taken aback, doesn’t Li Ying want to go there? Sorry! Because the prince is used to eating there, the kitchen hasn’t prepared yet. Are you ready now?

“Go.” Li Yin left calmly.

The thoughts of what caused Ling Wei to slow down first were suddenly forgotten.

Let’s finish the meal first and then slow down.

The waiter breathed a sigh of relief. It turns out that the prince has forgotten the time. He just said that the prince has spent more than half a year going to the next door to have a meal together, and he also instructed the kitchen not to prepare separately. He thought there was something awkward between the prince and Master Ling.

Wait…Why does he use the word awkward?

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

“Jintang.” When Li Ying saw Ling Wei, he still took a trace of unconscious restraint.

Ling Wei was extremely calm: “Today I asked the kitchen to steam pumpkin ribs. You can try the new harvest of pumpkin. The food in the palace looks exquisite, but it doesn’t taste much. I’m so hungry.”

Li Yin silently stretched out his chopsticks to grab a piece of ribs, chewed, looked up at Ling Wei, lowered his head and chewed, then looked up at Ling Wei.

Ling Wei almost couldn’t help laughing. Why haven’t you noticed Li Ying’s cute side before? It was like a big dog begging to be petted, so he wanted to rush over and rub it.

Cough, hold steady. How come your thoughts start to rippling as soon as the alarm is cancelled.

“Isn’t the imperial cook in the palace the best chef? Isn’t my cook just a fellow in the army? Why do I think the cook is better than the imperial cook.” Ling Wei also clamped a piece of ribs. Well, it tastes good, he has passed his seven or eight points.

“The imperial chefs in the palace are not good at cooking, but everyone in the palace has different tastes, so they are different from our cooks.” Li Yin wiped his mouth, showing a slightly flattering smile. But Jintang taught well.”

Our family, who and you are our family! Ling Wei slandered. I haven’t noticed it before, but now I realize that this guy is calculating everywhere, it’s a scheming ghost! Scheming ghost!

Ling Wei’s face was a little red, and he didn’t know how to put it on, and began to bow his head to pick up vegetables and rice.

The conversations that I used to take for granted, now that I’m clear about it, I feel so shameless. Li Ying, is this a ma that comes with a talent for intercession? Huh!

Upon seeing this, Li Yin stopped talking and ate quietly.

Although only the sound of bowls and chopsticks can be heard quietly at the dinner table, the atmosphere is not awkward, but a warm feeling permeates.

Feng Ning bumped his elbow into Ren Sheng who just came in to report: “Why do I feel that the atmosphere between the prince and the master is not right?”

Ren Sheng said: “What’s the matter? It has always been like this?”

“I think it seems that the relationship…is better?”

“Is there? The relationship between the prince and the master has always been very good.”

“Also…” Feng Ning nodded. It is estimated that it is the master’s three yuan and the first, is he happy?

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

After a meal, the two seemed to suddenly return to the previous mode of getting along, and they did not discuss any more about the matter on the carriage.

They still eat together as usual, read books and discuss together in their spare time, and Li Ying will continue to teach Ling Wei how to ride and shoot.

It’s just that between getting along, people always feel that the atmosphere is a bit wrong.

How should I put it, anyway, it is the kind that I thought I could watch calmly before, but now I don’t dare to watch it calmly.

Obviously nothing was wrong, and now seeing the smiles and smiles they were getting along, they all felt wrong.

For example, Li Ying now teaches Ling Wei to correct her archery posture, because Ling Wei has not grown up, as if it was embedded in Li Ying’s arms. It used to be like this. The only way to say that Li Yin and Ling Wei are in a good relationship.

But now seeing this scene, the people looked away one after another, always feeling that they couldn’t look directly.

Once or twice, it is an illusion that the next person is still one. But it’s always the same, and it’s a bit strange to ask others the same.

But this does not seem to be a big deal?

Ling Wei’s arrow hit the middle of the target, turned his head triumphantly, and smiled triumphantly at Li Ying. Li Ying lowered his head, rubbing his chin against Ling Wei’s forehead.

The people who had just moved their gazes quickly turned their gazes away again, always feeling that their hearts were filled with weird shame.

It’s really wicked!

The two got along in a very normal and serious manner, and the appointment of the court was also down.

Ling Wei thought that he would become a prince to speak and read, but he did not expect to get the will, but he was named the emperor to speak and read.

The prince’s lecture and the emperor’s lecture are of the same grade, but the scope of responsibility is completely different.

As the name suggests, the Prince Talking and Reading is to accompany the Prince to read and teach the Prince; while the Prince Talking and Reading is not only to accompany the emperor to study, but also to participate in the discussion of the emperor’s decision-making, and even participate in the drafting of the imperial decree.

When the emperor talks about reading, the emperor is close to his ministers.

After receiving the decree, Ling Wei froze for a moment, and had no idea about this imperial decree.

“Jintang had been on good terms with the prince. If he was directly named as the prince to teach and read, I fear that some caring people would put Jintang under the prince and do something not very good.” Li Ying knew that although Ling Wei was very smart, he was very smart. These corners in the officialdom are like missing root strings. I always don’t understand. I am used to explaining to him, “The emperor speaks and reads the emperor’s approach to the minister, representing the confidant of the emperor. Although the emperor will still let Jintang Lectures for the prince and other princes, but Jintang’s identity is different, and those people have different ideas.”

Ling Wei nodded sternly without knowing it. So there are so many things to say about an official position? Liu Qi and Zhao Gui were recently named Donggong to teach, does it matter?

Forget it, if you don’t understand it, you don’t want to, and the emperor can do whatever he wants. Anyway, the emperor knew that it was not a piece of officialdom, and he would not cheat himself.

Maybe?

“Speaking and reading” are actually two official positions, namely, attending to the bachelor’s degree, but the duties are similar, so they are collectively referred to as speaking and reading, which is the fourth grade. It seems to be only a small rank higher than Baron Ling Wei, but the actual official position and the title are completely different. Ling Wei’s status is also completely different.

After the emperor talked about this identity, everyone knew that Ling Wei was deeply trusted by the emperor.

However, no one was surprised when thinking of Ling Wei’s background.

Sure enough, as Li Ying had expected, although the official position was the emperor’s lecture, Ling Wei returned to his previous job. Give lectures to the prince in the morning, and take the prince and the little princes to “lecture” together in the afternoon.

It’s just that Geshanchawu entered the palace once before, and now he has to enter the palace as an errand every day. It’s so happy, the little princes.

Zhao Gui and Liu Qi were also happy.

They used to do Ling Wei’s work every day, even if they knew the method, they still complained in their hearts.

This kind of work with children is completely different from what they imagined to be officials.

Now the two have been liberated and go to the Imperial Academy to study with peace of mind. They can also be summoned by the emperor from time to time to inquire about political affairs.

Speaking of it, their two princes talked about reading like the emperor, while Ling Wei, the emperor, was doing the work of the prince.

His Majesty the emperor is so capricious.

However, rather than being asked by the Emperor His Majesty that he was unfamiliar and good at political affairs, Ling Wei would rather take a child. Probably His Majesty also knew Ling Wei and didn’t let him do something he was not good at.

And there is an advantage to giving lectures to the little princes, he doesn’t have to go to school early.

Officials in the capital from the fifth grade are qualified to go to the early dynasty. But in order not to delay the Prince’s course, the default is that the Hanlin Academy bachelor who lectures do not have to go to school early. Except for Xiu Mu, Ling Wei went to the palace to report every day, so he naturally didn’t have to go to court.

At the thought of not having to go to court, Ling Wei felt that his whole life was lit up. He couldn’t help showing off in front of Li Ying.

Li Ying couldn’t laugh or cry. Which official does not look forward to having the qualifications of the upper court and the opportunity to face saints. But Ling Wei was not happy. Forget it, this is also Ling Wei’s…advantage? Not admiring fame and fortune?

In fact, Ling Wei is just not good at getting along with a group of black-bellied foxes…it’s just getting up too early.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

On this day, Ling Wei led Huang on the left and Qingcang on the right, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Stick figure and small diary record the grain from a seed to maturity

When I realized that the food was precious, I was bumped by the angrily prince.

“His Royal Highness, didn’t you go to the government? Why did you come back.” Ling Wei let go of the two little His Royal Highnesses and stabilized the prince. He thought it was rare today to not have to see the bear kid who always asked him weird questions.

“Jintang! Lonely and confused!” The prince took Ling Wei and began to file a complaint, just like a child who is asking an adult to file a complaint. He didn’t notice the difference between his and Ling Wei’s status.

It is useful to tell Ling Wei about matters that he can’t solve as his Royal Highness.

“Why, say something well.” Ling Wei sighed. What’s the matter again?

“Below came the good news that the head of the thief was finally wiped out. Gu and his father were happy. As a result, an old man jumped out to impeach a meritorious official, saying that the uncle would kill prisoners of war indiscriminately, and was cruel and vicious. Not only should he not To be rewarded, but also to be punished!” The prince exclaimed angrily.

Ling Wei’s mouth twitched. Sure enough, it’s this kind of thing again.

Although there are many enlightened people in this era, just as there are people who are stupid in studying at any time, there are also many officials who have very strange brain circuits.

Of course, maybe he finds it strange as a modern person.

For example, a thief who killed like hemp was killed, but it was said that the murderer was wrong.

This kind of person, put in modern times, is estimated to be the Madame Keyboard Man on the Internet. Anyway, the officers and soldiers are the fault of the officers and soldiers, no matter how evil those people are, no matter how the officers and soldiers are in line with the laws of the dynasty. They didn’t want to fight, and those who were killed were innocent and not innocent.

There are also those who are clamoring that farmland water conservancy technology cannot be improved, and that tricks and tricks are undesirable. It’s as if they go to the fields to talk about the principle, then the grain will be able to harvest and increase production.

The prince was taught by Ling Wei very practical, and his temper was spoiled and spoiled. When these people were full of nonsense, although they could bear it at the time, once they came back, they would start to talk to Ling Wei.

Ling Wei took the other little princes back, and asked them to draw pictures of what they had seen and heard and write them into small diaries. Then he took the prince to another place and listened to the prince’s grievances.

Although these princes are still young, they are already governors. Although they don’t understand it now, they will think that after listening to the prince “curse” other ministers, there may be unnecessary troubles.

After the prince vomited bitterness, Ling Wei asked, “How did your majesty solve it this time.”

The prince was aggrieved: “Father still said that, just ignore it, as long as you know how to do it. But lonely and aggrieved. How can these people still be officials in the court?”

“So how can these people still serve as officials in the court? Has your Royal Highness asked your Majesty?”

The prince said: “I have asked, but the father didn’t say it, let alone think about it. If you don’t understand, just ask Jintang.”

Ling Wei twitched his eyebrows. Your Majesty, can you stop “making the best use of everything”, this is the way of the king, you should teach it, and ask me what to do?

But His Majesty had assigned this task, and Ling Wei had to solve the task conscientiously.

He calmed down the irritable prince first, and after the prince Mao Shun got better, he said: “His Royal Highness knows the person impeached today?”

The prince shook his head blankly.

“Since the prince doesn’t know or understand, how can you know why your Majesty endured him?” Ling Wei said, “Do you remember the tables and relationship diagrams of His Majesty the Minister?”

“remember.”

“His Royal Highness wants to know the reasons for this. First, he must understand who the impeached person is, what is his family background, why he entered the court as an official, what kind of position he holds today, and how he is promoted step by step. Then he must understand who the impeached person is. , Family background. Then fill it in the form step by step. Then extract the elements that His Highness thinks are useful, and connect the related elements on the line.” Ling Wei suggested, “This is your Highness’s homework this time. If your Royal Highness does not know these materials, you can ask your Majesty how to obtain them.”

Humph, kick the ball back in half. At any rate, what your Majesty also said was to raise the prince personally. He always had to teach something, and he couldn’t do it all by himself.

His Royal Highness nodded seemingly. List these things, can you get the answer he wants?

“Why didn’t Jintang tell Gu directly?” The prince asked puzzledly.

Ling Wei smiled and said: “Because of this conclusion, it requires His Highness’s own judgment. And even if the minister said it, no matter what your Highness thinks, the explanation is appropriate.

Whether it’s appropriate or not, at best, it’s just listening, and it’s forgotten in an instant. If your Highness finds out the conclusion on his own, not only has he got the answer to this question, but will encounter similar problems in the future, won’t Your Highness also find an explanation quickly by himself? ”

The prince nodded: “This is what Jintang said, is it better to teach him how to fish than to teach him how to fish?”

“Almost.” Ling Wei smiled relievedly. His Royal Highness is so smart, and he feels very fulfilling in teaching. He just mentioned it, and he knew that he was teaching him a way of thinking.

For the monarch, he is most afraid of being overly jealous, self-directed, and partial to listening and believing.

This feudal society is one word. If the person in the highest position wants to make a correct judgment, he must collect more information, think more, and then draw his own conclusions.

Although this is definitely wrong, but comparing it with other people’s conclusions, there will always be something different. There will be much less unjust, false and wrong things.

I don’t know if your majesty did it on purpose. Every time the prince listened to politics, he would hear the strange remarks of such strange people, which made the prince angry every time.

Perhaps your majesty taught the prince how to be patient?

Your Majesty is still very painstaking. Ling Wei said with emotion. Your Majesty is really a great father.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

“Ahye!” Li Li rubbed his nose, “I’m really mad! How come these useless sour scholars have been impeached these days, and the impeached I want to use a sword to kill people!”

“Brother emperor calm down.” Li Ying said, “There was nothing serious about Chaozhong some time ago. They were naturally quiet for a while. Now that the bandits in the west have just disappeared, it is a big event, and they naturally want to come out to find a sense of existence.”

“Yes, people from Yushitai don’t come to look for their presence every month, as if they feel uncomfortable.” Li Li snorted coldly, “it seems like they will be able to go down in history by impeaching others continuously. These people who seek fame and honour. , Huh. But my son really followed me. Didn’t you see Qichen being so angry? Haha, that little face is blue. Qichen also asked me why I had to endure those people, so I asked him to ask. Jintang.”

“Why… ask Jintang?” Li Ying’s mouth twitched.

Li Li took it for granted: “I am the great father of Qichen! If I tell Jintang that I still need sesame and garlic skin for the small reason I need to endure those sour Confucian scholars, I can’t say it. Isn’t Jintang teacher Qichen? Preaching and teaching karma to solve puzzles is what the teacher should do.”

Li Li: “…”

Actually feels so reasonable, speechless…
