Chapter 89 The emperor's house is going to be renovated

Yaoguang walked up with his hands behind his back and said with disgust: "Hey! At night, you stay in the house honestly. When you get up at night, there is a toilet behind the screen. Don't go out and walk around. You know how powerful the Beidou Department's mechanism is."

Tai Sui lay on the bed and turned her head to look at her: "Look at you, you are so fierce all day long, either hitting people or scaring people. Look at her sister Kaiyang, who is so gentle and considerate, the voice of her words, and the way she smiles at others, oh..."

Tai Sui looked intoxicated, her eyes narrowed, as if she thought of Kaiyang's appearance.

Yaoguang rolled his eyes: "Idiot!"

After that, she turned around and walked out slowly with her hands behind her back.

Tai Sui got up and followed him, locked the door and came back, sat by the bed, and then got up and opened the window.

The window opposite was open, and Tai Sui was seeing Kaiyang sitting at the table, drawing something with a charcoal pen, with a serious look, and the swaying candlelight reflected on her face, her skin was as beautiful as jade, beautiful and peaceful.

Tai Sui leaned on the window ridge with his arms, looked at Kaiyang with enthusiasm and focused description, with an intoxicated look on his face, and exclaimed in a low voice: "It's so beautiful!"

...

The Great Inner Palace is majestic and dignified.

The sun shines brightly, and the golden light shines, dyeing the entire imperial city into gold, magnificent, majestic, and the royal atmosphere is unobstructed.

The gatehouse of the Chuigong Hall is wide open. In the two sunken dantangs in the corner of the house, two bronze qilin furnaces emit light smoke. The leisurely sandalwood aura lingers in the hall, making people feel at ease.

The two eunuchs stood in the corner with their heads down, without saying a word, like invisible people. An old man in purple robe and white-haired and bearded were standing at the table and shouting something loudly at Zhenzong, but they ignored them and dared not react at all.

Lei Yungong hurried to the front of the Chuigong Hall and saw an eunuch guarding the door. He stopped and asked, "Is the official family busy at this time?"

The eunuch raised his finger on his lips and replied in a low voice: "Shh~~, Eunuch Lei, just say a little, Kou Laoxier is getting angry with the official family."

Lei Yungong listened with his ears, and then Kou Zhun's loud voice came from inside.

"No, if Your Majesty does this, what's the difference between Shang, Zhou, Xia and Jie!" Kou Zhun's tone was stiff and implicit anger.

Lei Yungong's face moved, and he touched the eunuch in front of him. Whether he was sincere or not, both of them showed anger in their eyes.

I am so brave that I dare to say this to the official family. Wouldn't this be called a foolish monarch in person?

Lei Yun glared inside with resentment, but he dared to compete with Beidousi, but he would never dare to scold Kou Zhun in person.

In the hall, Zhenzong and Kou Zhun stood opposite each other, standing very close. The emperor was slightly tilting his body and wiping the spit on his face with his hands, looking embarrassed.

Zhenzong smiled helplessly: "Grandpa Kou, are you so serious? I just want to expand the palace, why did it become Jie and Zhou?"

Hearing this, Lei Yungong's eyes rolled, stepped into the hall, leaned down and bowed, and reported loudly: "The official family, I have returned to the palace to report!"

Zhenzong's eyes turned slightly. When he saw Lei Yungong, he was stunned at first, and then he couldn't help but feel happy. It was not that he was happy to see him, but that he was at the right time. After interrupting, he no longer had to compete with this stubborn old husband.

Nodded to Lei Yungong, Zhenzong smiled on his face, left Kou Zhun, and walked towards Lei Yungong: "Ah! Eunuch Lei, get up, what I sent you to do..."

Before he could finish his words, Kou Zhun reached out and grabbed Zhao Heng, and said with a serious look on his face: "Your Majesty, don't leave, I'm not finished yet!"

Zhao Heng stood helplessly and looked at Kou Zhun and smiled bitterly: "Okay, okay, my dear, even if you do."

Kou Zhun let go of his hand and said seriously: "It is very inappropriate for His Majesty to expand the palace. I also asked the official to take it back."

A look of displeasure flashed in Zhao Heng's eyes, but he still said with great sincerity: "Hey! Kou Aiqing, if you expand the palace, why would you become a life-threatening person? Our imperial palace in the Song Dynasty inherited from the previous dynasty. When the previous dynasty established its capital in Bianliang, the world was not yet determined, so the palace was very, very cramped."

Kou Zhun shook his head: "Your Majesty's ease, you can see that the people in the city are complicated and already very crowded. If the officials expand the palace, the people around him will be able to move out. Isn't this a disturbance to the people?"

Zhao Heng frowned, walked forward two steps, raised his hand and pointed outside the palace, and said, "But now the people's residence is only a street from my palace. When you hear it, how can the palace be safe? Also, my dear, the building around the people is built higher than my palace walls. If you have nothing to do, you will look into the palace and look at me and the concubines in the harem as a sight. Where is the royal decency? If I want them to relocate, I will compensate you with a lot of money."

Kou Zhun insisted: "Your Majesty is easy, but the people are unwilling to move! Those people have lived here for generations, but now His Majesty has displaced the people for his own selfishness. Isn't it the benevolent monarch who does it?"

Zhenzong smiled bitterly, turned to look at Kou Zhun, with a look of displeasure in his eyes: "I will make a lot of money to compensate me, how could I be displaced? Kou Aiqing, you have really made some big troubles."

At this time, Lei Yungong, who was standing beside him, jumped out to rescue Zhao Heng: "Grandpa Kou, the farmer has collected a few more dou of rice, and has some spare money in his hand. He also knows how to build a big house. The official family is the emperor. Now the treasury is rich, what is the expansion of the palace garden? Why should Mr. Kou be so aggressive? As the saying goes: In the world, is it the king's land! Isn't the official family just trying to expand the palace? "

Zhenzong was very happy when he heard this, looked at Kou Zhun and nodded desperately.

Kou Zhun turned his head and glared at Lei Yungong, shouting: "Shut up! You are a eunuch, how dare you interfere in politics!"

After that, Kou Zhun turned his head and saluted the emperor, and said sincerely: "Although Your Majesty is the lord of the world, the Sage once said: The people are the most important, the country is the second, and the king is the least. As the lord of the world, Your Majesty should be more sympathetic to the people's will and cherish the people! Even if there is compensation, if the people are forced to relocate, wouldn't it be suspected of taking away the people's private property? Once recorded in history books, it is afraid that your Majesty's reputation for benevolence."

Zhenzong frowned and said nothing, but Lei Yungong, on the side, retorted unconvincedly: "King Kou, it is already a very kind person to be a farmer if you want the official to pay a lot of money to appease the people. Is it better to have a businessman?"

Kou Zhun was furious, rushed over and raised his legs and kicked Lei Yungong, cursing: "You eunuch slave, you encourage Your Majesty to indulge in pleasure all day long. What is your intention? Do you want Your Majesty to be scolded as a fool!"

Zhenzong was frightened by Kou Zhun's anger and rushed forward to persuade him to fight: "Kou Xiang calmed down, and Eunuch Lei was confused for a moment."

Lei Yungong dared not fight back. He hid behind Zhao Heng in a mess and bent down like a chicken that was angry.

Kou Zhun was still unhappy and glared at him hatefully, turned to Zhenzong to continue admonishment, "Although Your Majesty wants to make a lot of money to compensate, the old minister has just passed. Most of the people around the palace are unwilling to move. Those who come to them are not only houses, but also ancestral property. If you force the migration, it will inevitably cause resentment from the people. Your Majesty has always ruled the world with kindness, and you must not do this."

Hearing this, Zhenzong was helpless and nodded dejectedly: "Okay, okay! If you don't expand, you won't move! I know that I won't build this house anymore, and the people don't need to move, hey."
