with words in mind

Chapter 99 The Book Sales Storm 1
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty——" Li Zhan roared as his face turned blue with fear!

"Father! It's obviously true." Yan Mo wanted to stop it, but Qi Ming grabbed it, and she was very unwilling to see him shaking his head.

"Your Majesty Shengming—" Yuan Shangshu hurriedly bowed and flattered.

"Clean up quickly!" The emperor ordered!

Eunuch Liu hurriedly led the palace servants to clean up the spider's corpse.
After everything was clear, the emperor ordered again: "The Minister of Rites and the Elder Hongge!"

In the transfer desk, the current Minister of Rites Hong Du, together with his father, Hong Ge Lao, who was also the former Minister of Rites, went out the door and hurried to the Hall of Qinzheng.

Elder Hong Ge: "I'll just say it, this Li Zhan will definitely have an accident!"

Hong Shangshu: "Father, not sure yet. We won't know what's going on until we arrive at the Palace of Qinzheng."

Mr. Hong Ge: "It's called Mr. Ge. If there is no major event, His Majesty will not summon us together. You are still too tender."

In the Qinzheng Hall, Yan Mo saw that the opportunity for this matter was fleeting. He brushed off Qiming's hand and said to the emperor, "Father! It's on the picture."

"The Suilan case!" Yuan Shangshu shouted first, "Although it's over, Master Ji, shouldn't you explain it well?" He looked at Ji Shenwen and said, "As soon as you entered the East Palace, the poisoning case occurred in the East Palace. And it's the prince's personal maid! The timing is too coincidental."

"What's going on in the East Palace?" The emperor, who had been watching the play, finally frowned!

"When Wei Chen came down to court, he happened to meet Imperial Doctor Ruan, so I learned about it!" Yuan Shangshu said respectfully.

Emperor: "Prince Xuan!"

"Father, don't worry, the royal brother is safe." Qi Ming blocked the next words and said to the emperor, "This matter has been detected by the princess, and the poisoner is the parrot. The commander Du Gonggong escaped, and it has nothing to do with Ji Gongzi."

"Parrots?" the emperor asked in confusion, "Parrots poisoned?"

Qi Ming: "Because Duke Du escaped, we haven't caught this parrot yet."

"A little father-in-law dares to take action against the East Palace! This matter must be thoroughly investigated!!" The emperor said angrily!

All of them hurriedly knelt down and bowed their heads.

"Elder Hongge, the Minister of Rites to see you—"

"Xuan!" The emperor said coldly.

Elder Hongge: "Old minister sees His Majesty."

Hong Shangshu: "Weichen see Your Majesty."

Emperor: "Li Zhan, a member of the Ministry of Rites, guarded himself for theft, and has been executed by me! You father and son are responsible for poor supervision and oversight! Elder Hong Ge, he was promoted during your tenure as Minister of Rites!"

"It's the fault of the old minister." Elder Hong Ge hurriedly bowed down and pleaded guilty.

"Wei Chen oversighted." Hong Shangshu also pleaded guilty.

The emperor sighed and said, "Each one of them will be fined one year's salary, and carefully check the tribute for the past ten years, and the amount is correct!"

"Yes." Hong Gelao and Hong Shangshu responded together.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince meets—"

Emperor: "Xuan."

"My son sees the father and the emperor." The prince saluted.

"Prince, I heard that something happened to the East Palace?" The emperor asked with a gesture of flatness.

"Father, don't worry, this matter has been resolved, Lan Xue was temporarily suppressed by the imperial doctor's medicine." The prince got up and replied, "My son has sent someone to track down the master, the little father-in-law, and hope to be caught as soon as possible."

Emperor: "Bold servant! The prince doesn't have to be soft-hearted, he must find out who is behind the scenes!"

Prince: "Yes."

Emperor: "This palace maid's case has gone on for several days, and Ji Gongzi has also been implicated. Ji Shenwen, can I agree to you a request as compensation?"

Ji Shenwen bowed respectfully and said, "The grass people don't ask for anything else, they only ask for His Majesty's health and peace in the world."

Emperor: "The polite words will be avoided. In that case, you can keep it. If you want something in the future, as long as I can give it, it doesn't hurt the overall situation, you can say it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ji Shenwen and Jae Tong said gratefully at the same time!

The emperor: "Okay, Yuan Aiqing stays, you all retire."

"The ministers and others retire." Elder Hong Ge and Hong Shangshu said in unison.

"My son retire." Qi Ming and the prince bowed together.

"The minister-in-law retire." Yan Mo said helplessly.

The prime minister looked at Yan Mo, lowered his head and said, "Old minister retire."

Everyone exited the Qinzheng Hall, and the Prime Minister only spoke after Hong Ge Lao and Hong Shangshu disappeared.

"Old minister thanked His Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness Prince Yi'an, and the Queen Concubine for taking care of my son." The prime minister bowed deeply, and Ji Shenwen bowed with him.

Prince: "It's too hard to help each other, please get up."

Prime Minister: "If it weren't for the help of the nobles, old minister"

Qi Ming: "You can rest assured that you help each other, the father emperor gave Ji Gongzi such a great grace, but also to appease the adults."

"The old minister understands, so, the concubine," the prime minister comforted Yan Mo and said, "There is no need to worry about this matter all the time. In the future, the old minister will be more careful and let my son come to the palace less often."

Yan Mo was silent for a while and said, "It's obvious that he is a bad guy, but I'm just a little unhappy for letting him control the situation."

"Haha. The princess is really a person with a temperament. The situation in the officialdom is changeable, and it has long been no surprise." The prime minister finally showed a smile.

Yan Mo frowned, still unhappy: "."

Seeing this, Qi Ming smiled and said, "The princess has a strong will to win, which makes the adults who help each other laugh."

The prime minister chuckled kindly and said, "It's rare for the princess to be in a pure state of mind." Then he said to his son, "Wen'er, thank the princess well."

Ji Shenwen: "Thank you, Princess, for taking action."

"Hey, you thanked me just now." Yan Mo waved his hand and said, "I'm just mad at myself for not being able to bring down the real mastermind behind the scenes."

"It's almost noon, don't stand here." The prince smiled and said, "Bengong and Ji Gongzi don't even have breakfast. They must be hungry now."

Prime Minister: "Ah~ yes, Wen'er can finally go home, your mother misses you!"

Ji Shenwen: "Father, I want to go to Xing'e Palace and say goodbye to the little princess."

The prime minister was embarrassed: "Before you were confined to the Xing'e Palace, that was a helpless move, and it is not appropriate for you to go to the concubine's palace now."

"Don't worry, my lord, Ben Gong also wants to see the little princess, so I happened to go together." The prince said with a smile.

"This." The prime minister glanced at a few young people. They all smiled brightly and saw that they couldn't resist. The prime minister bowed and said, "The old minister will retire first."

Between the red corridor and the jade pillars, a group of people are walking on the way to the Xing'e Palace
Yan Mo: "How did Yuan Shangshu know that there is evidence of Lord Li's crime in the hands of the prime minister?"

Qi Ming: "Yan'er, you forgot, those two courtiers. They have been lurking in the prime minister's residence for many years, and I'm afraid they knew much earlier than we did."

Yan Mo snorted softly: "There is no distinction between black and white! Yuan Shangshu is not a good official at all! Why does His Majesty keep him?!"

Qi Ming: "It is used to check and balance the prime minister. In fact, the real power of the prime minister has been greatly weakened."

Yan Mo: "If you are so afraid of the prime minister, then dismiss him!"

Qi Ming smiled: "Official affairs have never been black and white, so you can withdraw if you can say that."

"During the reign of the emperor, the prime minister, Dong Youquan, dominated the government and the opposition." The prince explained to Yan Mo, "The emperor, who was just in power, was too weak to stop him. After a few years, he finally overthrown the prime minister, and the emperor chose the The docile Zhao Yong was the prime minister, and Master Ji was Zhao Yong's disciple and a docile person, and was later chosen by his father as the prime minister."

Yan Mo: "Unexpectedly, his son has a deep scheming!"

Qi Ming: "Ji Gongzi's nature is gentle and uncontroversial, Jun Qi is introverted, but in the past five years, he has been in a delicate situation to help each other, and he is also protecting his father."

Yan Mo: "But now it seems that His Majesty guarded the prime minister, but strengthened the traitorous officials like Yuan Shangshu!"

Qi Ming: "Yuan Shangshu's anger and anger surfaced on the surface. Father Huang felt that this person was better in control. Besides, you have also seen his skillful tongue!"

Yan Mo snorted contemptuously!
Ji Shenwen followed behind the three of them and let go, blinked his eyes, and said in his heart, I have never seen such an open and honest discussion behind the scenes!

The Xing'e Palace was just in front, and several people stopped talking and walked forward.
In the Qinzheng Hall, there are only the emperor, Eunuch Liu and Yuan Shangshu.

Emperor: "What's wrong with this painting, I don't need to say it clearly?"

"Your Majesty!" Yuan Shangshu hurriedly knelt down and saluted!

Emperor: "There are palace-specific paints on the painting, do you think I can't see it?"

"Weichen dare not!" Yuan Shangshu said lying down!
"Go to Jinzhou to receive the punishment yourself!" The emperor threw Yuan Shangshu a few copies, "From now on, Yuan Shangshu will be downgraded to the commissioner of Jinzhou, and solve the trouble for me!"

"Yes! Wei Chen retire." Yuan Xiao solemnly took down the crown of Shangshu and retire with Zezi.

Before the prince went to the Qinzheng Palace, he sent someone to inform the Xing'e Palace, and the East Palace would come from time to time.

The little princess was waiting outside the palace gate early, accompanied by Mama Tachibana.

"Hua Junzi~" The little princess saw Ji Shenwen and trotted to meet him!

Ji Shenwen saluted cautiously: "Princess Palace"

Before he could finish speaking, the little princess dragged him and ran frantically into the palace: "Brother Hua Junzi is back~hahahaha~"

"Ling'er! Forgot what Wei Niang told you?" Wu Guifei greeted her from the main hall and saw Sa Huan's little princess.

"Linger didn't forget." The little princess suddenly stopped and became very reserved, "I am the fourteenth princess. In the future, if I let you go west, you can't go east! Do you understand?"

"Haha." Ji Shenwen pretended to be out of breath and said, "It's Her Royal Highness today, Caomin is here to say goodbye to the princess."

"What is goodbye?" the little princess asked with her bright eyes flashing.

"Ji Gongzi is leaving, and will not come again." Wu Guifei said ruthlessly.
After a humming sound, Qi Ling held back Dou Da's tears and said, "Brother Hua Junzi doesn't want me anymore."

"No, no! Her Royal Highness!" Ji Shenwen hurriedly said, "Caomin is from outside the palace, and Caomin has to go home to see his parents, so he probably won't enter the palace for the time being, but Caomin will think of the princess, and the princess won't. I'm sorry, we'll meet again by chance~"

"Really?" Qi Ling stopped crying and looked at Ji Shenwen to confirm
"Caomin will never break his promise." Ji Shenwen comforted.

"What is breaking a promise?" Qi Ling asked innocently.

Ji Shenwen smiled with embarrassed eyebrows: "Well, breaking promises is a bad thing. Caomin won't do it. Caomin will do everything he promises to the princess."

I couldn't listen to it anymore. Concubine Wu Gui, who was exhaling two rough breaths, out of some instinct, just didn't want to see Ji Shenwen: "I have said goodbye, the etiquette of Ji Gongzi has arrived, and the rest is left to this palace." Qi Ling, who is too reluctant, wants to evacuate customers early!

Gollum - Gollum - Gollum - Gollum - Gollum -

Everyone was stunned because the sound came from four different stomachs.
The prince and Ji Shenwen were already hungry, and Shimo always reported the time on time. The last one was the little princess. She bit her little finger and looked at the other three.
"Mother concubine~ Ling'er is hungry," the little princess begged, grabbing the corner of Concubine Wu's clothes, "Brother the prince is also hungry"

"I wonder if the imperial concubine would like to keep us for dinner?" The prince showed a bright smile, making it difficult to refuse.

"Agree!!" The little princess raised her fleshy hands and smiled innocently!In stark contrast to Wu Guifei's livid face!

So inexplicably, a group of people actually used lunch in the Xing'e Palace. There was a strange atmosphere in the main hall.
A large round table was filled with all kinds of delicacies.

Concubine Wu Gui had a bland and indistinguishable look, looked left and right, and said with a smile: "Xing'e Palace has not been so lively for a long time. Haha! Princess Yi'an! I missed it last time, and I wanted to meet you long ago. You! Little Linger often mentions you to Ben Gong!"

Seeing the roast chicken swallowing his saliva, Yan Mo did not move his eyes and said, "What did Xiao Ling'er say bad about me?"

Concubine Wu's aunt's smile froze and the topic was over!
"Everyone, let's eat! You're all starving!" The prince hurriedly cleared the siege and laughed!
Yan Mo raised his chopsticks and was about to inhale it like a storm, but Qi Ming grabbed it!I saw that King Yi'an put the dishes that the princess liked into the bowl one by one, piled it up into a hill, and then even contributed his own bowl!
When everyone was still reaching for the food, Yan Mo finished the food in the two bowls in a few seconds!Surprised everyone present! !
The prince who was sitting on the other side of Yan Mo didn't even move his mouth. After reacting, he also contributed his own bowl and filled Yan Mo with a bowl of dishes!
Seeing this, Qi Ling shook Ji Shenwen's sleeve and launched an attack of eyes!

Ji Shenwen quickly prepared some delicious dishes for her. Seeing that the princess was eating deliciously, he remembered that the chopsticks could not be used by himself when he was about to prepare the dishes, so he asked Mammy Orange to bring some more chopsticks and distribute them to the ones who needed them. For those who cook, one pair is eaten by oneself, and the other pair is used for serving others!
When Mama Orange offered the chopsticks to King Yi An, Qi Ming didn't take it, but he only used a pair of chopsticks!
Because they were really hungry, everyone ate happily until
"Your Majesty is here—"

I am most afraid of the sudden quietness of the air, and the atmosphere that has finally been harmonious because of the delicious food becomes rigid again.
The emperor stepped into the hall with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect Xing'e Palace to be so lively today?"
