"By the way, fourth brother, there are still some documents that have not been reviewed in Zhongshu Pavilion. Please go and get them for me." Emperor Hongxuan suddenly changed the topic.

King Yan's heart skipped a beat. He glanced at Eunuch Feng and then at the serious Emperor Hongxuan. He gritted his teeth, took out a stack of unprocessed documents from his sleeves, and placed them on the table.

"Fourth brother, do you know what it is to seize Zhongshuge documents privately?" Emperor Hongxuan said in a cold tone.

"I did not seize the documents from Zhongshu Pavilion."

King Yan suddenly became excited, looked at Emperor Hongxuan and said: "I just can't bear to see the emperor working too hard, and I am worried that you will be exhausted, so I asked Eunuch Feng to lie that today's documents in Zhongshu Pavilion have been reviewed.

, I just hope to slightly reduce the burden on the Emperor, and I want to leave some documents for tomorrow, and I have no selfish motives. Your Majesty, you are tired, please take a rest!"

After finishing speaking, King Yan's nose felt sore, and he looked like he was trying his best not to shed tears.

"It's ridiculous. How can we delay a major national matter? As long as it is a document from Zhongshu Pavilion, today's affairs must not be left to tomorrow. The emperor was seriously ill and never slacked off during his lifetime. How can I dare to relax at all?" Emperor Hongxuan said seriously?

.

King Yan sighed and said slowly: "I was reckless for a moment. Please punish me so that the law of the country can be rectified."

"That's all."

Emperor Hongxuan waved his hand and said: "My fourth brother is also thinking of it. I will not pursue today's matter. If there is a next time, I will punish him according to the national law and will not be lenient."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will never do that again."

King Yan sighed helplessly.

Emperor Hongxuan finished drinking the ginseng soup and put it back into the basket, and ordered: "You go down first, I have to continue to review and approve documents."

"I resign."

King Yan carried the basket and slowly exited the imperial study.

"It's just a pain for my fourteenth brother."

King Yan felt very uncomfortable, thinking that a twelve-year-old child could shoulder the heavy burden of the country, and as the dignified King of Yan and the elder brother of Emperor Hongxuan, if he could not do his best to share the worries for his younger brother at this time,

If he stabilized the situation of the kings competing for the crown prince in the court and put an end to the war between the barbarians and the Xiongnu, then he was not worthy of becoming the real crown prince in the heart of the late emperor.

"If what Mr. Wu said is true, it is worth letting me give it a try."

After King Yan left, Emperor Hongxuan continued to review and approve documents in the imperial study.

It wasn't until late at night that Emperor Hongxuan processed all the remaining documents.

There was only one document. Emperor Hongxuan read it again and again, frowning slightly.

The content is about grassland tribes from the west. After learning that the Yun Kingdom was attacked by barbarians and Huns, they were secretly reorganizing their troops.

I just don’t know if I want to take advantage of Yun Kingdom’s crisis, or if I want to do something else.

"Your Majesty, it's late, you should go to bed."

Eunuch Feng reminded: "Tomorrow morning, you will also attend the morning court to discuss national affairs with officials."

"I...can't sleep tonight."

Emperor Hongxuan walked to the window, looked out at the night, and looked at the document in his hand again.

"What should we do if the grassland tribes take the opportunity to invade the border?"

Emperor Hongxuan was a little confused.

"When the late emperor was in power, he used his strong national power to intimidate the barbarians, Huns and grassland tribes. I must always learn from my father. I must do what he can do."

Emperor Hongxuan clenched his fists and finally wrote a few lines in the document.

"You all come over here!"

Emperor Hongxuan's eyes burst with fierce fighting spirit.
