Chapter 43

Cai Jing, the British prince, was 65 years old at the time. He was tall and strong like a man in his prime. His gray hair was neatly rolled up and fixed with a sapphire inlaid net scarf.He has a square face, thick eyebrows and eagle eyes, a high nose bridge, and a slightly hooked nose, perhaps because of his slightly raised beard and beard. He always looks smiling, making people ignore the brilliance in his eyes.

Cai Jing was also a handsome man when he was young, and his children followed him in every way.His daughter-in-law was the first emperor's main palace, but her fortune was poor, she died of blood collapse during childbirth, and died within a month after giving birth to a son.In the same year, Concubine Xu gave birth to a son who is now the little emperor.Concubine Xu was also promoted to be a noble concubine, and for a while she was in the limelight in the palace.

However, the good times did not last long.After the death of the first emperor Longyu, the concubines were buried, and the concubines who were originally born were spared. It can be concluded that Chen Zan is the eldest son, and he is the prince who was appointed by the first emperor.But Concubine Xu Gui didn't want to be the queen mother, and her true feelings were hard to repay, so she threw herself into a gift.Chen Zan, who was only nine years old, was left alone.

The little emperor practiced his job at a young age, fortunately he had the British Duke Cai Jing and Huo Shijiu as his assistants.

"I see the emperor." Cai Jing approached and bowed his hands.

The little emperor waved his hands with a smile, and said affectionately: "Cai Aiqing doesn't need to be so polite, come and show Cai Aiqing a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Cai Jing sat down on the huanghuali wood official hat chair brought by the palace people.

Huo Shijiu smiled and cupped his hands at Cai Jing, "Master."

"Commander Huo." Cai Jing sat lazily on his knees, nodding casually in return.

"Brother Ying, you don't need to be too polite, we are all from our own family, please sit down." The little emperor said with a smile, and ordered people to watch tea.

Only then did Huo Shijiu lean back, and sat halfway on his side under Cai Jing's hands.

Cai Jing stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for so many days and you are still refreshed and refreshed."

"Thank you Cai Aiqing for your concern. Everything is fine for me. Thanks to Brother Ying, I have come up with many interesting ways to play these days. I am happy to play, and I am in a good mood. When I am in a good mood, everything will go smoothly."

Cai Jing said with a smile: "Commander Huo is just like a lowly official, he is only thinking of the emperor."

"Yes, I know. So I also trust you and rely on you more."

Xiao Weizi brought tea, the little emperor took a sip, frowned and said, "I don't want this, I want sour plum soup."

Cai Jing took a sip of tea, and because it was his favorite Tieguanyin, his smile deepened a bit, put down the delicate blue and white tureen, and said with a smile: "The emperor likes sour plum soup, and there is a servant girl in the minister's mansion, making sour plum soup is a must. If you turn back, the minister will dedicate the person to the emperor."

The little emperor smiled and said: "Okay, then besides making sour plum soup, what else can she do? Will she play with me?"

"Of course it will." Cai Jing said with a smile.

Huo Shijiu also said: "I have tasted the handmaid's handiwork, it is indeed good, and she looks really handsome. Letting her serve the emperor to eat sour plum soup is not a disappointment to her good handicraft and good looks. "

"Really?" The little emperor was dubious at first, but he believed everything Huo Shijiu said, clapping his hands and saying, "Okay, okay, let her come and stay with me!"

Cai Jing smiled at Huo Shijiu, said "yes" respectfully, and said, "Your Majesty, everything is still in order in the palace. When does the Emperor plan to return to the palace? You are now 14 years old, and you should be in charge."

Hearing the words, the little emperor tossed the tea bowl casually, and said displeasedly: "How many times have I said that what is good in the palace is the comfort in the other courtyard and the affairs of the court, don't bother me with it."

Cai Jing hurriedly stood up and saluted, "The minister is terrified, and the emperor calms down."

Huo Shijiu also stood up: "The emperor calms down, the British public has good intentions and is dedicated to the country."

"I know, you are all for my own good." The little emperor's anger dissipated quickly, and he said: "Cai Aiqing works a little harder. As the saying goes, those who are capable work harder. If there is anything wrong, you can just go back and forth with me." Just let me know. As long as I have something to eat, something to wear, and something to have fun, I ask Brother Ying to come and play with me more, and think of more novel and fun things, and I don’t care about the rest.”

Cai Jing hurriedly saluted and said yes.

The little emperor invited Cai Jing and Huo Shijiu to their seats again.

Cai Jing also praised the little emperor's visit to Jiang's family today, which is a model of approachability.The little emperor is very useful.

After talking for a while, Cai Jing got up and left with a big ceremony.Walking to the side of Huo Jiujiu, he nodded and smiled at him before rubbing shoulders with him.

After Cai Jing left, the little emperor said excitedly: "Brother Ying, this hero wants to fight you!"

"Your Majesty, I don't know kung fu."

"I am a hero now, if I say to fight you, you must obey!"

Huo Shijiu said helplessly: "Forget it, then let's fight a duel. It's just that the heroes are merciful. I really don't know kung fu."

The little emperor ordered someone to fetch two wooden swords, and gave Huo Shijiu one. The two took off their robes, and started fighting. Huo Shijiu was defeated all the way, and the little emperor felt that his posture was chic and beautiful. Brave and invincible, the male duck shouted "Eat this hero's sword again!" Wielding the wooden sword vigorously.

After "dueling" for a while, I felt tired.Huo Shijiu said again: "It's better for the emperor to play monkeys this time."

Hearing that the little emperor patted his thigh and said yes, he couldn't find the monkey for a while, so he rolled his eyes and ordered: "Bring me that old boy Zhao Xiangyi to be a monkey! Who told him not to be serious about his errands, tell him to give it to you!" It's a good day and auspicious day for a big wedding, but he decided on that bad day!"

Zhao Xiangyi is the supervisor of Qin Tianjian.

Huo Shijiu smiled, "Your Majesty is really smart, I just ordered people to announce that Zhao Xiangyi is here."

Jiang Wu was chopping firewood at the moment, Jiang Yan and Jiang Jiao knew that she was unhappy and couldn't persuade her to say anything, so they moved to each other and sat in the courtyard to chat with her.

The three sisters were talking and laughing when they suddenly heard a light knock on the courtyard door.

Sister Yin wiped the water from her hands on her apron, and ran quickly from the kitchen to open the door, "Who is it!"

Just as he finished speaking, he saw a tall and beautiful daughter-in-law standing in front of the door.I saw her wearing a round bun, wearing a big hairpin inlaid with silver silk and emeralds, wearing an autumn-colored grape-wrapped long-sleeved shirt, and a tea-white eight-panel skirt. Laughing, "Dare to ask this sister-in-law, is this place in Jiang Yushi's residence?"

Sister Yin hurriedly nodded: "You are?"

"I'm from the Duke's Mansion, and I'm here to send invitations to the third girl in your mansion." He took out a gold-plated post from his sleeve, and said with a smile: "This year, the lotus in our Duke's Mansion took the lead. The earliest and the best, the old lady was very happy, held a lotus appreciation party, and invited the most famous Chunshan troupe to sing in the hall. I ask Miss Jiang San to be sure to appreciate it at that time."

Sister Yin thought this person was a rich wife before, but unexpectedly she was a servant of the British government!The servants of the Duke's Mansion are all so respectable!

She rubbed her hands on the apron again, and took the invitation carefully.

The daughter-in-law smiled and nodded, turned around and got into Qingyi's pony carriage.
