Chapter 382 The Old Monk's Inference (Third)
The emperor not only had lunch at Qin's house, but also had dinner.

During this period, Dequan secretly looked for Qin Wubing, hoping that Qin Wubing could persuade the emperor to return to the palace. Qin Wubing smiled and asked, "Who is your master?"

Dequan said: "Of course it is the emperor!"

"You stop things that make your master happy? What good did the kneeling in the palace do to you?"

Dequan was so frightened that he quickly explained: "As slaves, we naturally hope that everything will go well for the master, but we are not in the palace, in case something unexpected happens..."

"Just say that you are with those people, and you still don't recognize it! Prince Xiang can travel thousands of miles, and the eldest princess can go to the battlefield. Why does the emperor have to be tied to the dragon chair? Let you watch it every day." , you are at ease and satisfied, is this the right thing? Your Majesty became Emperor just to make you feel at ease?"

Dequan's face turned pale immediately, and he said bluntly, "Your son-in-law can't talk nonsense, it will kill you!"

"I'm not talking nonsense, do you think about it for yourself? How can there be so many accidents and accidents? You are a slave, and it is your duty to serve your master well. What is the duty of the emperor? The duty of the emperor is Knowing the sufferings of the people and then solving them, have you heard the allusion? Many dynasties ago, there was a monarch who heard that some of the people starved to death, and asked, 'Why don't you eat minced meat?'”

Dequan was stunned.

"It's not that I'm scaring you. Throughout the dynasties, if the emperor is incompetent, few eunuchs around him will end well! For yourself, you have to expect the emperor to be diligent in his administration and love the people, because such an emperor should at least be reasonable."

Dequan seemed to have listened to it, but he didn't seem to have listened to it, and he mentioned the matter of returning to the palace with the emperor twice. The emperor said he would go back and sent him to the Department of Punishment for a trial to see if he had taken Wang Duan's favor. Dequan then gave up, and could only silently sympathize with that Wang Duan, Mr. Wang in his heart.

In fact, Qin Wubing didn't tell Dequan the most fundamental reason, he knew it, but Dequan couldn't understand it.

The emperor has not yet reached his thirties, he is at the age of enthusiasm, he is already full of ambitions, how can he endure this threat?What's more, the emperor's heart is like a mirror, unless he wants to deceive himself and others, otherwise, who can deceive him?
The emperor's performance made Qin Wubing very happy. Before, he only heard that the emperor wanted to rectify the officials, but now he is at ease, following such a leader, at least he won't feel aggrieved.

Qin Wubing's deduction was correct, but he forgot one more thing, the emperor hasn't been so relaxed for a long time, how could he be willing to leave.

Qin Wubing would quarrel with the old monk while talking, the eldest princess and Prince Xiang would not be careful and respectful to the emperor, the old monk didn't know what respect is at all, Qin Wubing forgot to be respectful early on, so Well, a few people stay together, it really looks like a family should be, and the unhappiness accumulated by the emperor for many days disappeared.

Finally, the sky was getting dark, and everyone had just finished dinner when the emperor said that he was going back to the palace.

Qin Wubing remembered his respect and bowed to see him off.

As soon as he walked inside the second gate, the emperor suddenly stopped and asked Qin Wubing: "Do you think that the scientific examination fraud case is up to you?"

Qin Wubing was immersed in the joy of being able to go to the kitchen immediately and eat a few more mouthfuls of leftover food, when the emperor suddenly asked him, he replied without thinking:

"That's natural! It's difficult for anyone to take over this case. The emperor thought, but more than once there was a problem with Chun Wei. How many people would be involved? How many people became officials because they sold the test questions? If these people build a wall, Who can get over it?"

"Why can you?"

"Because the wall is useless to me unless they kill me."

"You have family too."

"No one in the Qin family is an official. The lifeblood of a merchant is in business. Now that the emperor is behind him, what can they do to me?"

"You said, I will tour the south after the spring next year, how about it?"

Qin Wubing raised his eyebrows: "Why did the emperor ask me?"

"As you said, the duty of the emperor is to know the sufferings of the people's livelihood and solve them. If I don't go out, how can I fully know?"

Qin Wubing glanced at Dequan who was at the side, and then scratched his forehead. The eldest princess hurriedly said, "Isn't it embarrassing for the emperor to ask him? How do you ask him to answer?"

Qin Wubing waved his hand and asked: "Is the emperor planning to make a southern tour openly or covertly?"

"Of course it's clear, this is not like being in the capital, the court can't afford not to see the emperor for too long, no matter where it is." Prince Xiang said.

"Then it's better to be in Weibo in the capital. You can still see how the people's livelihood is. It's better than not watching."

"Why?" The emperor looked very interested.

"Does the emperor know how much silver is left in the treasury? How much silver will be spent on this trip, has the emperor calculated it? What's more, how much real people's livelihood can the emperor see during the southern tour? It's all just for show. , why bother? It’s a waste of money.”

After hearing this, the emperor laughed loudly and walked towards the door.

Prince Xiang turned his head to look at Qin Wubing, and chased after him.

……

The emperor left, Prince Xiang also left, and the eldest princess saw that it was getting late and wanted to leave, but was called aside by Qin Wubing, as if she wanted to say something very important.

The eldest princess glanced at Ying Gu, and soon, there was no one else beside Qin Wubing and the eldest princess except the old monk.

Qin Wubing ignored the old monk, and whispered to Princess Dachang, "Do you have any acquaintances in the House of Internal Affairs?"

"What do you want to do? The emperor said a long time ago that the Qin family wants to do business..."

"No, the emperor said today that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is responsible for our marriage. He asked me to tell you, you remind me, next month... hey, don't go, listen to me."

The cool evening wind in autumn made Qin Wubing a little messy. He didn't understand why the Eldest Princess ran away as soon as she heard about her marriage. Don't you hate to stick to the rules?

The old monk comforted Qin Wubing at the critical moment: "You don't need to worry about this matter."

"You seem to be in a hurry than me!" Qin Wubing said, then turned and walked towards the inner courtyard.

"I'm anxious because I don't have any acquaintances in the capital. I'm afraid that everyone will be busy and forget about me. You are different. I think Yu'er is more anxious than you."

Qin Wubing had never heard such pleasant words from the old monk before, he couldn't help but brows happily, and quickly asked: "How do you know that Yu'er is in a hurry?"

"Think about it, she's older than you, she's been picking and choosing for so many years, and finally found someone she likes, so what are you waiting for if you don't hurry up and get married? Why do you think she's in such a hurry to go back to the Eldest Princess' Mansion?"

"Getting ready for the wedding?" Qin Wubing's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

The old monk nodded and said: "Don't mention the matter of getting married again, hold on, after ten days and half a month, she will be in a hurry."

"It makes sense!"

The two people who had never seen a pig walked together to study how to eat pork. They all forgot that marriage is a good relationship between the two families. Before Qin Wubing's family arrived, there were some rules that had been agreed upon, and none of them could go away. , how to set the wedding date?And no matter how the Eldest Princess does her own way, she will always be shy when it comes to marriage. This is a common problem among women in this life, and has nothing to do with status.
