pungent peasant girl

Chapter 540

The next day, Dahe's rare sunshine was bright.

The sun shone brightly over this vast land.

The towering blue-gray palace was also coated with a layer of golden light.

The light shone into the main hall, and the golden lacquered pillars also reflected dazzling light.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live—"

The voices of the ministers shouted echoed in the palace.

Wei Mingru was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe and sat on the dragon chair.

There is a long white jade step between the imperial case and the officials.

Wei Mingru sat on the dragon chair, crossed the long white jade steps and looked down at the officials.

There was a faint smile on his face.

It seems that I am in a good mood.

When the officials saw Wei Mingru's expression, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The one sitting on the dragon chair is the emperor.

The emperor is the master of this vast land.

The master is in a good mood today, and they are naturally relieved.

"Hehe, all my loves are free from courtesy!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The officials stood up, Wei Mingru laughed, and his eyes fell on Luo Ziyan, "Hehe, I am in a good mood today. I think you all know the reason."

"Yes, I heard that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince has returned." Among the ministers, a minister interrupted flatteringly, "I heard that His Highness the Fourth Prince brought 5000 people to grab food and grass, but when he came back, he not only grabbed the food and grass It was sent to the border in time, and none of the 5000 people who went there was injured, and they even recruited the bandits in the Tiger Village. His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is truly a feat, Your Majesty, congratulations."

"Hahaha." Wei Mingru cracked his mouth and smiled, "That's right, you guys are very well informed, that's it, the fourth brother did it so perfectly without using a single soldier, what can I say? Satisfied. Fourth brother, this time, you can’t justify not rewarding me properly.”

"Thank you, Royal Father, these are all matters that are the responsibility of the son-in-law. Of course, the son-in-law should do his best."

"Well, that's the way it is said, it's not worth it to reward what I said a long time ago. How about this, I went out of the palace a few days ago and passed by your mansion, and I saw that your mansion is too old. So , I want to repair it for you again. What do you think?"

"Hehe, it's okay, Erchen's mansion is really a bit simple."

"Hey, you have been back for so long, and I haven't noticed these things, and I feel very guilty. In this way, I will give you money to repair your mansion, and then reward you with ten thousand taels of gold."

"Yes, my son, thank you, Father."

Luo Ziyan saluted respectfully.

Wei Mingru nodded in satisfaction.

At this moment, all the officials in the hall looked at Luo Ziyan intentionally or unintentionally.

Of course, they didn't think he was Luo Ziyan, they thought he was Wei Xuan.

This is the second son of the abandoned empress who was just recovered from Yan Dynasty.

It took him only half a year to gain the emperor's appreciation.

You know, they have not forgotten how Wei Mingru disappeared with an excuse when the fourth prince returned to the court.

Things in the world are really hard to predict.

In their eyes, there is either jealousy, envy, or admiration and appreciation.

Luo Ziyan knew that he had made meritorious service for the court over and over again, and many people were paying attention to him.

But his eyes are always quiet.

There was no wandering in his eyes, and no one could tell whether he was happy or unhappy.

Wei Mingru was in a good mood, the bandits who had wanted to recruit for many years finally got recruited.

According to Luo Ziyan's request, he happily arranged Sun Miaohai and others in a position suitable for them.

This morning, everything went well.

When it was time to go down to court, the civil and military officials walked down from the door of the main hall.

On the stone steps of white marble, a red blanket winds from the door to the last stone step.

Luo Ziyan walked down without haste.

The voices of the ministers congratulating him with laughter continued to sound around him.

He nodded politely, responding to them.

Until he reached the second-to-last step, an equally laughing voice sounded beside him.

"Congratulations to the fourth brother, this time the problem in the extremely cold place is solved even more beautifully than last time."

Hearing the sound, Luo Ziyan stopped in his tracks. He looked at Wei Zhi who was standing one step higher than him. Wei Zhi was smiling and his expression was very calm.

It seemed that what happened this time didn't affect him in any way.

This is impossible.

Everyone knows that Dahe used to be one of the most honorable princes in Wei Zhi's court, except for the five princes born by the empress.

But now, Wei Xuan's existence is obviously going to exist on an equal footing with him.

Since he wasn't angry or frustrated because of it.

Then he must have other grasps in his hand.

"Second brother seems to be in a good mood?"

"Yes, look, the sky is clear today, of course I'm in a good mood." Wei Zhi put his hands behind his back, and deeply curled his lips.

"Well, yes, I'm also in a good mood, because I got everything I wanted." Luo Ziyan deliberately lowered his voice.

"Oh, so." Wei Zhi nodded, "But, fourth brother, I also heard something. I heard that the former queen was missing when her carriage rolled over on the way back to Miaoyin Mountain. "

Wei Zhi pretended to be frightened.

Luo Ziyan also nodded, "Indeed, after I came back, someone told me the news."

"That's right, fourth brother, don't worry, just look for it."

"I've already sent someone to look for it, Second Brother, if you have spare time, you can also help me look for it."

"Hehehe, I must help, and that is your mother of the fourth brother."

"Oh——" Luo Ziyan sighed quietly, "Second brother, in fact, you and I grew up in a different environment. You grew up next to the concubine Xian, and your mother and child have a deep relationship. But, I am not, I grew up in the Yan Dynasty, when I was young, I only knew my mother was the Wu family."

Luo Ziyan said these words slowly, without any expression on his face.

Wei Zhi said again: "She is your mother."

"But I don't have any feelings for her." Luo Ziyan also felt a little helpless, he shrugged his shoulders and walked down the last stone steps.

Wei Zhi continued: "It's better to look for it carefully, so as not to be called unfilial."

"Oh, Father has never liked her." Luo Ziyan said lightly, without pausing in the slightest, he walked forward.

His figure faded away.

Liu Zhiping also stepped down quickly, and followed Wei Zhi.

"uncle."

"How about it?"

"Wei Xuan doesn't seem to really care about Hua Lanyi."
-
Luo Ziyan walked outside the gate of the palace, and the carriage from the fourth prince's residence came.

Luo Ziyan got into the carriage, and Qin Wu's voice rang out in a low voice, "Your Highness, the emperor rewarded you, and the subordinates heard about it outside. I just don't know what the attitude of the second prince and Prime Minister Liu is." .”
