Done! Your Majesty is going to prostitute me for free!

Chapter 8 Rebellion!

After reading out the two contracts, Emperor Jingjiang was kicked out of the county government office by Lin Xiaofeng without even taking a sip of water.

Looking at the tight door, Emperor Jingjiang and Wang Jingwen stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes, extremely speechless...
  While he was hesitating, a carriage suddenly came up to him. The driver stepped down enthusiastically and helped to load a box of peach blossom wine in front of Emperor Jingjiang into the carriage.

"You two are the masters who are going back to the capital, right? I have been ordered by Master Lin to send you two back to the capital!"

"Oh! This is really thoughtful!" Emperor Jingjiang was somewhat pleased.

Wang Jingwen also smiled happily. Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaofeng did something to save himself trouble.

So the two got in the car directly and prepared to return to Beijing.

But just as the two of them were sitting firmly, the coachman suddenly poked his head in and said, "Two gentlemen, I need twenty taels of silver to return to Beijing. Please pay first and then set off!"

Wang Jingwen: “·········”

Emperor Jingjiang: "·········"

On the way back, the sky suddenly became gloomy, and the drizzle was like a sad string, playing a sad melody endlessly. The rain was thin and dense, like an invisible curtain between heaven and earth, shrouding the whole world in hazy.

After leaving Yangqu County, the road to Beijing seemed to become more difficult. The originally solid land became muddy under the erosion of rain, and every step felt like stepping on a swamp.

The carriage that Emperor Jingjiang was riding on trudged forward on the muddy road and fell into deep mud pits several times. At this time, Wang Jingwen had to follow and push the cart hard together with the driver. Their clothes were soaked with muddy water, their faces were covered with mud, and the miserable feeling arose in their hearts.

However, when they finally entered the outskirts of the capital, the difficulties they faced became increasingly serious. People are mixed here, and cars and horses are everywhere. It seems to be a disorderly world.

The carriage he was riding in was continuously blocked on the road, and the driver kept arguing with the people in front of him, his voice full of irritability and helplessness. Jing
  Emperor Jiang was sitting in the car, feeling increasingly depressed. He frowned, his eyes revealing deep dissatisfaction and anxiety.

Wang Jingwen also lowered his head and dared not say anything, for fear of offending the already extremely impatient emperor.

Suddenly, the carriage shook violently, and then the coachman's screams came from outside.

Wang Jingwen felt nervous and quickly leaned out to check the situation. I saw that the carriage shaft had sunk into the mud puddle, and the coachman lost his grip and fell out of the carriage, half of his body soaked in the mud puddle.

He covered his forehead and kept complaining: "This damn place! It's really not as good as our county!"

The surrounding gang of hooligans in tattered clothes burst out laughing when they saw the tragic situation of the coachman falling into the pit. Their laughter was shrill and harsh, as if they were laughing at the driver's embarrassment and misfortune. In this laughter, the driver's anger and complaints seemed even more helpless and insignificant.

Wang Jingwen frowned, feeling irritated in his heart. He quickly urged the coachman to get up and continue on his way.

You must know that this place is different from Yangqu County. The order is extremely poor and there is a mixture of fish and dragons.

The driver hurriedly agreed, but he tried his best to flop around in the pit a few times, but he didn't get up.

It seems like he broke a bone!

The laughter around them became louder and louder, as if laughing at their helplessness and helplessness. Wang Jingwen sighed helplessly and could only bear the irritation in his heart and got out of the car to help the driver. He squatted down, grabbed the driver's arm, and tried to pull him out of the pit. However, the coachman's body seemed to be stuck in the pit and he could not move.

Emperor Jingjiang sat in the carriage, listening to the laughter outside and the complaints of the carriage driver, and felt even more irritable.

When Wang Jingwen pulled the coachman up, Emperor Jingjiang finally couldn't help it and said calmly: "Get off the car, let's walk back." Wang Jingwen was stunned and looked up at Emperor Jingjiang, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

Wang Jingwen said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the rain hasn't stopped yet. Although it's just a drizzle, your body of gold..."

Emperor Jingjiang interrupted him, pointed outside and said, "Look at the bumpy road. I'm afraid it will take tomorrow morning to go back by car! Walking is faster than taking a car!"

After saying that, Emperor Jingjiang asked Wang Jingwen to reward the coachman with two taels of silver, and the two of them walked back to the palace.

The driver was naturally overjoyed. After thanking him repeatedly, he took out the peach blossom stuffing and turned around to leave.

Wang Jingwen stood there, watching the carriage go further and further away, with complex emotions welling up in his heart.

Although he only stayed for a few days, he missed those days in Yangqu County very much.

The roads there are smooth and solid, the city there is clean and tidy, and the people there are full of enthusiasm and vitality...
  But now, he was in the capital, which was regarded as the heart of Jingguo, but he was disappointed. He looked around and saw that the road in front of him was rugged, sewage was overflowing, and garbage and feces dumped by the people could be seen everywhere. Children were playing and playing in the sewage in the rain, throwing sewage at each other, completely ignoring the filth and stench around them.

The smell in the air became stronger and stronger, making Wang Jingwen feel a little tight in his chest. He looked up at the tall inner city not far away, only to find that Emperor Jingjiang's face was full of worry.

The emperor looked at the inner city, sighed deeply, and said with emotion: "I have been a soldier for half my life. After I unified the world, I lowered taxes many times. I thought that the people could live a prosperous life. But now it seems that is not the case at all! This is a huge capital. , can’t even compare to the small Yangqu County, how ridiculous!”

Wang Jingwen quickly comforted him: "Your Majesty has the world in mind, Yangqu County is just a place where the government has finished, and the difficulty of governance is naturally not the same."

Emperor Jingjiang did not respond. He looked around silently, then walked towards the inner city. His back looked a little lonely and heavy in the rain. Wang Jingwen followed him silently, with mixed feelings in his heart. He knew that the country's problems were far more complex and intractable than they seemed.

After walking for a quarter of an hour, the two entered the inner city. At this moment, Emperor Jingjiang's whole body was soaked and his boots were covered with filth.

But there was no expression on his face. He just walked silently on the muddy road, as if he was suffering some kind of pain and helplessness.

Wang Jingwen followed Emperor Jingjiang, walking panting.

The box containing the peach blossom stuffing was naturally impossible for Emperor Jingjiang to carry. It weighed at least thirty kilograms with the bottle of water. Wang Jingwen was panting from exhaustion, his clothes and hair were soaked, and his underwear was soaked with sweat.

After entering the inner city, Wang Jingwen breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly said to Emperor Jingjiang: "Your Majesty, we will arrive at the inner guard's station in the capital soon. There are carriages and sedan chairs there. I will contact you now."

"Okay!" Emperor Jingjiang nodded.

The environment in the inner city is much better than that in the outer city. At least, the road surface is much smoother.

But no matter what, it is very different from Yangqu County, especially the unpleasant filthy smell in the air...
  Yangqu County is full of the fragrance of rice, wine, flowers and plants.

Emperor Jingjiang couldn't help but fell into deep thought again...

·······
  At this moment, in the cabinet.

Prime Minister Bai Yongyuan is acting as the emperor and discussing state affairs with several ministers and ministers.

A clerk trotted to the door and knocked on the door.

He shouted hurriedly through the door: "Prime Minister Bai, Your Majesty has news!"

As he spoke, he took out an envelope from his waist and stuffed it through the crack of the door.

Everyone in the cabinet raised their heads in surprise, and one of them quickly picked up the envelope and handed it to Bai Yongyuan.

Bai Yongyuan quickly opened the envelope, flipped through it, and then said happily: "Great! His Majesty has finally returned to the palace!"

They had been looking forward to this day for so long! This time the emperor acted as a cashier and left a letter saying that the prince would supervise the country and the cabinet would assist him, so he just walked away.

But how did he know that the prince ignored the government affairs at all and was more capable of being a hands-off shopkeeper than Emperor Jingjiang.

Cabinet ministers have their hands full these days.

The key is that there are many matters that only His Majesty can decide on, which have been put on hold.

Good thing!

Finally getting through it!
  Bai Yongyuan ordered the clerk outside the door: "Transfer those who went to Duantian Mansion back!"

Then he turned to the ministers and said happily: "Colleagues, I'm going to see you now, do you want to come with me?"

"It's necessary! There are many matters in the Ministry of Personnel that require your Majesty's decision!"

"There are also Tobe!"

·······
  When Bai Yongyuan and others rushed to the imperial study room, Wang Jingwen was already waiting at the door of the imperial study room.

"My lords, please come in. Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time!"

Hearing what Wang Jingwen said, the ministers looked at each other, then thanked them and walked into the imperial study.

The moment they entered the imperial study, the ministers who were originally preparing to launch an attack to investigate the matter immediately looked at each other in shock.

Emperor Jingjiang was seen sitting in his seat, carefully reading a memorial.

On the table in front of him, memorials were piled up like a mountain.

Yes!

If it weren't for the character of working hard to govern, how could His Majesty have achieved the unification of the world that has not been achieved for hundreds of years.

How could such a majesty completely put down his official duties and become a hands-off shopkeeper?
  Some ministers who had been with Emperor Jingjiang for decades even secretly wiped away tears.

It was Bai Yongyuan who broke the silence and asked: "Your Majesty, you must never dare to leave without saying goodbye. During this period, the courtiers are going crazy! The country cannot live without a king for a day!"

Emperor Jingjiang picked up his pen, annotated the memorials, and said without raising his head: "I just went out for a walk! Look at how these memorials have piled up. Could it be that during my absence, you all ate Do you want to work? What's more, I also arranged for the prince to supervise the country."

Emperor Jingjiang said unhurriedly, but the majesty in his tone had already made many ministers feel oppressed.

The timid ones even started wiping sweat.

Bai Yongyuan quickly explained: "Your Majesty, the affairs of the DPRK and China are really busy these days, and we are dealing with them non-stop. Mainly there are some matters that require His Majesty's decision-making, and I want to submit them to the Crown Prince, but the Crown Prince... He never went to court..."

"Huh?" There was anger in Emperor Jingjiang's voice: "He hasn't gone to court yet? What has he been doing these days? Don't you know how to take care of him?"

"This..." Liu Shuguang, the Taifu next to Bai Yongyuan, stood up, bowed and said: "Your Majesty! The prince, I really can't control him! Every day I have stomachache or leg pain. Every day I feel very uncomfortable, and the imperial doctor can’t find anything wrong with me, but I won’t go to court.”

"The prince also built a lion and tiger garden. He has been recuperating in the garden for the past two days. When I went to look for him, I could only hear the roar of lions. I didn't dare to come near!"

"Li Yihao, Mr. Li Taifu, who went with me, was so frightened that he fell and is still bedridden..."

Liu Shuguang was impatient, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became. Others tried to hold him back, but it was too late.

I could only wipe away the cold sweat while listening to his complaints.

And Emperor Jingjiang's face became darker and darker...
  "You traitor! Is it possible that he has been eating, drinking and having fun these days without doing anything serious?!"

Emperor Jingjiang slapped the table hard, wishing he could slap the traitor on the head!
  "Well... not really..." Bai Yongyuan quickly took the opportunity to grab Liu Shuguang and forcefully tried to save him: "His Royal Highness the Prince visited the military camp a few days ago and personally trained the soldiers for a long time. , It’s not that...it’s not that you don’t do business...”

"Hmph! I have already unified the world, and now I don't even have any rogues. What is he training his soldiers for? Rebellion?!"

Emperor Jingjiang was furious at this time.

Bai Yongyuan immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing and fell to his knees with a plop.

"Your Majesty, the prince has absolutely no intention of this! He has absolutely no intention of this!"

"Hmph! If you have this idea, I will go and talk to him personally! Where is he now?"

Emperor Jingjiang couldn't hold back his anger at all. He felt uncomfortable when he saw that the capital was not as good as Yangqu County.

The mountain of information made his mood even worse.

Now it is discovered that the prince is not doing his job properly, which is simply adding fuel to the fire!
  "Your Majesty! The prince is still in the newly built Liger Garden!" Chen Shuguang had long hoped that Emperor Jingjiang would teach the prince a lesson, and now he was even more willing to speak up.

"Okay! Your Majesty, let's show off to the Liger Garden!"

·······
  East Palace, Lion and Tiger Garden.

At this time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Li Dexian was squatting on a chair, looking playfully at a lion chasing an old horse in the garden.

Seeing the lion open its bloody mouth, she actually jumped up and down with joy.

But seeing the prince's appearance, Eunuch Ou Zhiyong next to him had a sad look on his face.

It was a great thing for the prince to supervise the country. After all, although Li Dexian was the only heir of Emperor Jingjiang Li Shiming, Emperor Jingjiang was always dissatisfied with his virtue.

If I can seize this opportunity to supervise the country well and prove myself, I can regain some of His Majesty's trust.

But who would have thought that the prince would not go to court on his first day in charge of the country, and immediately after that, he would pretend to be ill.

If he were to be held accountable, he, a little eunuch, would be the one to blame for his death.

Most critical·······
  It was what I told His Highness the Crown Prince that I should be as majestic as His Majesty, roaring like a dragon or roaring like a lion.

Who would have thought that the prince would directly build a liger garden?
