Chapter eight hundred and seventy third: gratitude

Ye Chunqiu originally wanted to say, "The big father, it's not important. Besides Jingchu, there is Ye Dong here, but the old lady Ye suddenly sighed and stroked her beard and said, "Hey, I haven't lived for a few years. Now I'm in the twilight years, and I'm about to die. I've been mediocre for most of my life. I've been so comfortable that I have no other hope now. I just want to take advantage of this breath and do my best to do my best. When I'm old, what's the point? I'll have only such a little thought."

Speaking of this, Ye Chunqiu had no choice but to laugh and said, "Grandson... Grandson really doesn't know how to live, it's great that the eldest father is willing to stay here, haha... haha... grandson also avoided a layer of worry. The grandson had wanted to ask the eldest father to stay for a long time, but he was afraid that the eldest father would not be used to living here."

After hearing this, Old Lady Ye was very satisfied. She couldn't help but stroke her beard happily and said, "It's okay, I'm used to living here and I've made many friends. I feel a pity when I leave. Let's leave the exchanges and sends you to me. As for you, just concentrate on your stay."

Ye Chunqiu had to smile and cater to him: "Yes, grandson knows."

The old lady Ye was satisfied with her coaxing her to the point of being sweaty. Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but wipe her forehead, not knowing whether she should be happy or worried.

The little emperor is about to visit Zhenguo Mansion and has to stay for one night. There are so many people accompanying him. The vicinity of Zhenguo Mansion is already full of Jinyiwei.

After Ye Chunqiu ordered people to make arrangements, he was ready to welcome the car. It was not a joke, and it was definitely not a private visit. Such formal tours must even be recorded in history, and there will be special personnel recording the process, such as the words "The Emperor is in the State Council" and so on.

Therefore, Ye Chunqiu would never dare to treat this as a joke. Early in the morning that day, he entered the palace from the Meridian Gate to meet him early.

It was December, and it was cold and it was snowing a few days ago. Ye Chunqiu was wearing court clothes, but he didn't feel cold. However, there was a layer of ice floating on the Yu River under the Jinshui Bridge, and everything seemed to have entered a dead silence.

The ground dragon had already burned in the warm pavilion, and a trace of heat came out from the ground. Zhu Houzhao didn't feel cold in the warm pavilion, especially his mood was even hotter than the ground dragon.

Zhenguo Mansion has finally been completed. It is said that all the construction has been completed. In addition to the main buildings such as Zhenguo Mansion, bell tower, research institute, new army office, and China Merchants Bureau, there are thirteen workshops and dozens of warehouses. In addition, there are wharfs and some residential buildings that are completed. There are quite a small town with its own system, at least as mentioned in Ye Chunqiu's report.

As Duke Zhenguo, although Zhu Houzhao failed to get a salary, at least the Zhenguo Mansion gave Zhu Houzhao some hope.

The land within a radius of ten miles was not developed much, accounting for only 30%, which was roughly the size of a small county town. However, Zhu Houzhao thought that the drawings that Ye Chunqiu and he had already turned into reality, and he was almost so excited that he didn't sleep all night.

He went there last time, but all he saw was the road and some sporadic workshops, but he didn't know what happened now.

Zhu Houzhao looked dark, but she seemed energetic. When she heard Ye Chunqiu coming, she asked the eunuch to quickly put a crown on her, while letting Ye Chunqiu come in and speak.

When Ye Chunqiu walked into the warm pavilion, he saw that Zhu Houzhao was dressed up. Although his face was a little haggard, he was still in good spirits. Zhu Houzhao said to Ye Chunqiu happily: "How is it? I heard from foreign prosecutors that this Zhenguo Mansion is my palace, ha... This has come to my heart. I have always regarded it as my palace."

Liu Jin, who was standing beside him, also had a smile on his face and couldn't help but interrupt: "Yes, Your Majesty usually treats Ye Shixue as his own brother. Ye Shixue is grateful for his kindness, and I believe he has spent a lot of time on this palace. Ye Shixue, right?"

Seeing Liu Jin looking at him with a smile on his face, Ye Chunqiu just pursed his lips lightly.

Why didn't he know Liu Jin's thoughts? Liu Jin didn't dare to say bad things at will now, for fear of arousing Zhu Houzhao's dissatisfaction. However, such flattery may not be a prelude. If Zhenguo Mansion is too shabby and difficult to meet the standards of the palace, there will be no so-called "mind". Liu Jin can say that he has no thoughts on His Majesty.

After all, Zhu Houzhao is a teenager with impulsiveness and irritability. He was so provoked by him, but he didn't know what to think.

Ye Chunqiu said: "I wonder when Your Majesty will make his journey?"

When asked about this, Zhu Houzhao curled his smile and said with a depressed look: "I left early in the morning, but the minister who accompanied him was still preparing. It is really annoying to say that he wanted to choose auspicious times. There are so many rules. I just went to Zhenguo Mansion, and it was not that I had been there."

He seemed to care nothing, but Ye Chunqiu smiled at it. He could understand Zhu Houzhao's mood very well. Zhu Houzhao was originally a person who hated the constraints of rules, but he was the emperor. The emperor always had countless rules and regulations to restrain him. Everyone in the world thought that the emperor could do whatever he wanted and could live as he wanted.

But I don’t know that because he is the emperor, he has to learn how to behave and do things since childhood, what he can say, what he cannot say, how he walks, how he sits while sitting, and even when he is in a room, even when he is in a meal. Zhu Houzhao hates these red tape, which can be imagined.

As he was speaking, someone came and said, "Sir Liu and the ministers asked for a meeting."

Zhu Houzhao turned his head and said, "Let me change my crown garment."

Ye Chunqiu took a short while and waited in the corridor. At this moment, Liu Jin came over and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Ye Shixue."

Ye Chunqiu looked at him with a cold face, a hint of displeasure appeared on his lips, and said coldly: "I don't know why I am happy?"

"Ye Shixue is overjoyed." Liu Jin laughed and said, "For one thing, I am congratulating Ye Shixue's father-in-law on entering the pavilion."

When it comes to Wang Hua, Liu Jin was so angry that he thought that he had just followed Zhu Houzhao into the Forbidden City. At that time, he was so glorious that people gradually began to fawn on him. However, Wang Hua relied on his imperial tutor to him and never took him seriously. Thinking of the past vividly, Wang Hua looked at him with a contemptuous look. This was something that even Liu Jian had never done. Liu Jin felt very uncomfortable, but who would have thought that Wang Hua had turned over again and now he entered the cabinet again?

He wanted to let Yang Tinghe enter the pavilion now, which was many times better than Wang Hua.
