Chapter 38

"The emperor has a decree, immediately declare the seventh son of the Luo family, and Ling Yuan Fengyun to enter the palace to have an audience!"

But in less than half an hour, the Luo family really ushered in an eunuch, who said sharply that he wanted to summon the seventh son of the Luo family and Ling Yuan Feng Yunkai.

Feng Yunkai didn't know what method the Seventh Young Master used to pass the booklet to the emperor as a commoner, but what she was able to confirm once again was that the Seventh Young Master's power was far beyond what she had guessed before.

But, can a son of a noble family really get along to the point where he can even get through the joints in the palace?

It's not that she doesn't understand what kind of status a big family has in the feudal dynasty, but if one of the family can produce an omnipotent person like the seventh son, it's just a collateral... I have to say, this person Too bad.

"Yunkai, let's go." Seventh Young Master glanced at Feng Yunkai who was thinking about something, and called out.

Feng Yunkai came back to his senses, nodded helplessly, followed the seventh son, and followed the eunuch towards the palace.

As far as the imperial palace is concerned, I have been to Fengyunkai, the Forbidden City in Beijing, but I have no other special feelings except for the ancient flavor.After all, there are tourists wearing modern clothes everywhere, some with uncivilized behavior, destroying the mystery that the Forbidden City brings to ordinary people.

But this time, Feng Yunkai really stepped into this legendary mysterious place centered on the emperor, and the feeling was quite different from when he visited the Forbidden City in Beijing.

Teams of palace guards with solemn expressions and murderous spirits, bowed their hands and bowed their heads, carefully walked through the doors of the eunuchs and maids on errands, and the voices of some senior eunuchs in the palace scolding the ignorant little eunuchs, forming a distinct image. The ancient palace map made Feng Yunkai feel a little nervous for no reason.

Feng Yunkai is not the daughter of a prince or general, she is just the daughter of a peasant family. Although this peasant family is a bit unusual, she has never experienced any big storms. It would be far-fetched to say that she is not nervous at this time.

Maybe Feng Yunkai didn't realize it, but she had indeed begun to adapt to this society, and began to change herself accordingly.She began to want to become a master, and also began to think about how to create the most favorable environment for herself, and even chose the seventh son who was the most reliable to her as her future backer.

"Is the emperor fierce?" Feng Yunkai asked the seventh young master a little ahead in a low voice.

In fact, when Feng Yunkai first learned about the old emperor's protection policy for farmers, he had a good impression of him, but after experiencing the incident with the little prince, Feng Yunkai had a very bad impression of the old emperor.

After all, how good is a man who can even hurt the sons of his wife?What's more, this man is still the emperor who holds the power of life and death, so I'm afraid it is even more cruel and inhumane.

And the policy of protecting the people on the cultivated land was naturally regarded by Feng Yunkai as a policy of retreat under the helpless situation of extreme food shortage.

"Not fierce." The seventh son was telling the truth, but Feng Yunkai still took it as words of comfort.

Feng Yunkai curled his lips, thinking that it is impossible for the seventh young master to tell the truth to scare her at this moment, so he stopped asking the seventh young master, and while fantasizing about the future, he lowered his eyebrows and followed the people in front of him to the palace.

I don't know how many doors I walked through, anyway, Feng Yun didn't recognize a door, and didn't dare to look up to see the big characters on the door, and the eunuch at the beginning was also replaced by another eunuch with a different pattern on the top. The level is much higher.

But this eunuch with a higher rank seemed to recognize the seventh son, he lost his arrogance towards that eunuch, and instead had a much more pleasant expression on his face, and asked the seventh son about the situation of the Luo family.

The Seventh Young Master answered a few words indifferently, all of which were evasive and light-hearted answers. Seeing that there was nothing to ask, the eunuch continued to lead the way in dismay, and stopped asking questions.

Passing through another door, several people finally crossed the threshold of a magnificent palace. The majestic momentum made Feng Yunkai's heart rise again.

"Report to the emperor, the seventh son of the Luo family and Feng Yunkai will bring you here." The eunuch bowed and walked to the front, and said respectfully to the tall old man.

Feng Yunkai couldn't hold back right now, and secretly raised his eyes to take a glance.

Seeing this, Feng Yun was pleasantly surprised!
The old emperor, how does he look like a majestic emperor?Obviously, he is a terminally ill, widowed old man who is only half-breathed!

No wonder... the seventh son said that the emperor is not fierce.Even if you want to be fierce with this appearance, you can't be fierce, right?
"The grassroots see the emperor."

When the old emperor coughed and raised his head, the seventh son bowed his hands to greet him, but for some reason, the seventh son did not kneel down.

Now Feng Yunkai was puzzled and embarrassed, could it be that the Da'an Dynasty didn't have the rules of kneeling when seeing the king?But beforehand, no one told her, so is she kneeling now or not?

"Bold girl! You still don't kneel down when you see the emperor!" The eunuch, who was not as kind to Feng Yunkai as he was to the seventh son, saw Feng Yunkai in a daze, and immediately roared in a pretentious manner.

Feng Yun was happy and angry, but he still knelt down, he had no choice but to do as the Romans do.

"Feng Yunkai, the daughter of the people, has met the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

She originally thought that she would have to kneel down for a long time, at least answering all the emperor's questions before she could be pardoned to get up, but she didn't expect the old emperor to look up from the pile of memorials, and immediately let her get up.

"Pingshen, come to me, I have something to ask you."

Feng Yunkai raised his head slightly, and caught a glimpse of the old emperor staring at her for a moment with those cloudy eyes. He was immediately flattered and felt like a thorn in his body.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." But no matter what, being able to stand up is at least a good thing, she is not used to kneeling for others all the time - this is the emperor of the Da'an Dynasty, not her Feng Yunkai.

Feng Yunkai approached the emperor step by step, feeling a little apprehensive in his heart, he had only seen the match between the monarch and his ministers in TV novels, and had no idea how he should face the emperor at this moment.

These taboos between monarchs and ministers, I am afraid that even if she breaks them, she will not know it.

But now, she can only take one step at a time.

When Feng Yunkai got to a similar position and was about to move forward, the old emperor suddenly said: "I heard that you have grown a kind of rice with a very high yield, which grows in water. What is it called... rice paddy?" ,yes?"

As soon as the emperor opened his mouth, Feng Yunkai naturally knew that he couldn't go any further, so he quickly stopped, lowered his head and replied softly: "Yes, Your Majesty."

"I heard that you want to build a big manor, no longer rent the fields to tenants, but directly hire those tenants to farm for you?"

Feng Yunkai nodded again: "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Then, if all the tenants in the world are entrusted to you to command, how much can our Da'an Dynasty increase its grain production?" The old emperor looked at her thoughtfully, his tone was neither dignified nor majestic, as if chatting.

Feng Yunkai glanced at the seventh young master secretly, and saw that the seventh young master was standing there calmly, as if he was not worried about her at all, so he couldn't help muttering: She is a peasant girl who enters the palace to meet the saint, so it is hard for him not to worry at all. , she messed up this matter?

But time cannot allow her to be silent for too long, the emperor is still waiting for her answer!So she pretended to think for a while, and replied: "The women of the people are not talented. Under the hypothetical conditions mentioned by the emperor, the grain production can be increased to eight or nine times the current level."

A 'hypothesis', a 'about', immediately pushed the responsibility away completely. Of course, the old emperor himself knew that his assumption conditions were extremely difficult to achieve, so he was just making assumptions and did not really want to Feng Yunkai unified the tenant community.

Even if the old emperor is at ease, if Feng Yunkai is willing to endure this hardship, the subjects of the world will probably not do it either!

So the old emperor chuckled "hehe": "Then if I want to be the master of your future marriage, would you be willing?"

The temperature in Seventh Young Master's eyes instantly dropped a lot, this old fox!
Feng Yunkai was also taken aback for a moment, and then he understood what the old emperor was thinking.

In the eyes of the emperor, she is just a girl, no matter how capable she is, she will help her husband's family sooner or later after marriage, so the best way to deal with her is to use her husband to control her.

Of course, the old emperor's focus was not on controlling her, but on fearing that she would marry the wrong person and do things that would be detrimental to the Da'an Dynasty.

"The emperor chose a husband-in-law for the daughter of the people, and the daughter of the people should kowtow for the grace of the people, but..." Feng Yunkai paused for a while, and then said: "However, when the parents of the people's daughter were still alive, they had repeatedly issued and five orders not to allow the daughter to marry Merchants and officials, so the women of the people dare not rush to thank the Holy Grace, please forgive me."

The Seventh Prince's brows and eyes moved slightly, the old emperor was taken aback for a moment, and the eunuch who was accompanying him was even more dumbfounded.

This emperor has given a marriage with a golden mouth, even if the object is not a prince or minister, at least it is not a trafficker, how can there be a woman like Feng Yunkai who has ruined her own future?
But at this moment, Feng Yunkai was thinking about other things.

The old emperor kept silent about the destruction of the crops, he clearly wanted to favor the county palace, and the seventh son's wishful thinking to give the county palace a warning may come to nothing, Feng Yunkai thought to himself.

And the more time went by, Feng Yunkai realized that the emperor was really as the seventh son said, not fierce, but could be regarded as kind. Of course, she didn't know how much of what the emperor revealed was true or false.

"Since it is your parents' will, I will not let you be such an unfilial daughter." I don't know if it is because of Feng Yunkai's surprising words, but the old emperor's tone is a bit gentler than before.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Feng Yunkai heaved a sigh of relief, if the marriage in this life is controlled by the Emperor, she might as well become a nun.

At the very least, if she becomes a nun, she doesn't have to choose to stand in line, and she won't have so many involuntary and intrigues.

"I just remembered something." The old emperor looked at Feng Yunkai, his tone was flat, but he didn't know why there was an inexplicable heat in his eyes, "When you entered the palace, you shouted... Long live my emperor, why?"

Uh?Feng Yunkai was obviously taken aback, seeing the emperor, didn't they all shout long live?Could it be that she did something wrong?
