"Tah!" A white chess piece fell, and all the black pieces on the chessboard were trapped. It seemed like a certain death situation. Zhao Rongwu frowned and stared at the chessboard, thinking about the solution. After a while, he finally gave up, shook his head and said: "In terms of chess skills, I have been unable to compare with you since I was a child, and now that I have grown up, I cannot compare with you. "
"Brother, as long as he goes to my sister-in-law to play, he won't always lose." Zhao Rongqing put the chess pieces into the chess box and said with a smile. My brother's chess skills are indeed not as good as hers, but if he goes to his sister-in-law to play chess, he won't always lose. Her sister-in-law will occasionally let him win a few games.
Zhao Rongwu was embarrassed and pretended to cough twice to cover up. Naturally, he would not respond to this topic. At this time, Shu He served the two of them new tea. The tea had a light and elegant fragrance, which was refreshing. The brother and sister drank tea and sat talking to each other. This was quite rare on weekdays. Naturally, it was not because they had a bad relationship, but because Zhao Rongwu had an official position and had no time to spare.
Today is a rare day off, so Zhao Rongwu came to talk to his sister.
"The Yuan Dynasty is approaching, and the court has begun to prepare for various ceremonies. The Ministry of Rites is so busy that it can't find its hands and feet. The Ministry of Husbandry will not be idle either. I heard that King Yong has been resting in the Ministry of Husband these days." Zhao Rongwu said without saying much. But it has a hidden meaning of telling his sister the signs of Li Ci. Thinking about it, he was also worried. After his sister told him what was on his mind, he paid more attention to King Yong. It feels like a little sister looking at her brother-in-law.
Now that the location of their Dingbei Palace is so special, and the father wants to avoid the dispute over the heirloom, His Majesty also acquiesces. But his only biological sister fell in love with King Yong at this time. He understood his sister's temperament, and once he identified it, he refused to let her go. How could this be done? Even though King Yong didn't seem to have any intention of seizing the throne, he still had to be convinced by his courtiers and other princes.
Li Ci is King Yong. Since she is a prince, her special status has been determined and she cannot escape. After getting involved with her, Dingbei Palace was determined not to escape.
Zhao Rongwu began to think about how his sister had such thoughts about King Yong. After thinking about it, he probably only had what happened to him in Luodu when he was young. At first he was determined not to agree. He loved his sister, but he could not put the Dingbei Palace in danger. When he first heard about this, his first reaction was to persuade her to give up, but his sister convinced him.
She said: "Brother, please think about it. Your Majesty is still on the throne and you can keep the Dingbei Palace. Once your mausoleum collapses, will the successor King Xiang or the King of Zhou have your majesty's mind and be able to do it without any grudges?" Accepted by Dingbei Palace."
Zhao Rongwu was silent. According to the temperament of those two people, they were determined not to tolerate Dingbei Palace, nor could anyone else. How can one allow others to sleep soundly beside the emperor's bed? Since ancient times, there have been a few people who have made great achievements and shocked the emperor, but have had a good end. This is the predicament of the Dingbei Palace, and his sister actually wants to support King Yong to get rid of it.
"How can you guarantee that King Yong can tolerate it?" Zhao Rongwu frowned and said, "Never mind this, how can King Yong be so virtuous to occupy this high position?" If King Yong does not fight, she has already fallen behind, and there is no one in the court to support her. , just because of His Majesty¡¯s love?
Zhao Rongwu couldn't help but guess that King Yong's actions were just superficial, but secretly he had the intention of competing for the throne, retreating in order to advance, and in the end he persuaded his sister to be determined to support her. But she was very clear-headed intellectually. His sister had never been an emotional person, and she was the most rational and intelligent person in the entire Dingbei Palace.
Since she said this, it means she has thought about it carefully.
"This time for disaster relief, King Yong will not be in the limelight, but she will be noticed by the courtiers." Zhao Rongwu sighed. For a prince who has the right of inheritance and received divine grace, after King Xiang was banned, he accepted the Ministry of Households in charge of the world's money and food. There will always be courtiers who can't help but think about that possibility. Even if King Yong doesn't want to do it himself, there will always be people who add fuel to the flames and can't help it.
"I'm afraid that King Xiang is getting anxious, but King Zhou can bear it." Zhao Rongqing said neither salty nor lightly.
"At this time, if King Zhou touches King Yong, Your Majesty will definitely notice it. King Zhou is smarter than King Xiang after all, but he always looks down on others." Zhao Rongwu sneered lightly. He didn't know King Zhou too well. , but in the few contacts with King Zhou, I felt the pride of this Tianhuang nobleman rooted in his bones.
¡°Maybe in his eyes, Prince Xiang is just a fool who is lucky enough. But it happened that this idiot in his eyes had the support of those veterans who valued orthodoxy, and they have been in a stalemate with him to this point. It is ironic to say that.
"Let's not talk about this, but you, how can you make His Majesty agree with you and King Yong?" Zhao Rongwu asked. After all, it was too shocking for a woman to get married, but his sister actually wanted His Majesty to issue an edict to tell the world that he would marry her and King Yong. He could already predict how those dandy and conservative courtiers would vigorously oppose this matter.
"This matter is already in progress." When Zhao Rongqing talked about this matter, his face softened by three points, with a bright smile. But she had no intention of elaborating, and Zhao Rongwu didn't ask. He always had to believe in his biological sister's methods. And wait patiently. Since you have chosen to believe, then keep believing.
Li Ci has indeed not had much free time recently. She has only now taken charge of the household department and truly understands the weight of power and responsibility in her hands. The closer she is to Yuan Zheng, the busier the affairs of the household department become. All expenditures and income of the imperial court must be counted and settled by a prime minister. After that, a general charter will be drawn up based on the situation in previous years and the possibility of advance payment, and the total tax amount for next year will be estimated, submitted to the emperor for review, and finally distributed to the whole country. Each prefecture.
Perhaps because of the praise they received for the disaster relief, some people in the household department began to soften and no longer dared to look down on her over trivial matters. They began to ask for her opinion on many important matters, making Li Ci even busier. In addition, Emperor Zhaohe never appointed a new Minister of Household Affairs, so she had to personally review almost everything.
One day during the lunch break, Wen Zhi came to see Li Ci. He needed Li Ci¡¯s approval for some accounting matters. After Li Ci read it, he thought it was okay and agreed. Unexpectedly, Minister Wen did not leave immediately. Li Ci invited him to drink tea out of courtesy, and Wen Zhi sat down opposite her generously.
"Do you have anything to say, Minister Wen?" Li Ci held the refreshing tea and looked at the young and promising Minister of Hube through the rising white mist. It was not like she had never heard some clan princesses talking about Wen Zhi in private, how handsome and charming the minister was, and how he was highly regarded by His Majesty All these things revealed some intentions of becoming a husband.
Li Ci looked at Wen Zhi from a close distance and saw that his eyes were as bright as stars. His appearance was not ordinary, he was clear and handsome, and he had a handsome character. No wonder he attracted the favor of his cousins. However, she moved her gaze downwards, narrowed her eyes slightly, and landed on the neck of the person in front of her. It seemed
"I have something to tell His Highness." Wen Zhi seemed not to notice Li Ci's appraising eyes, but took out an account book from his sleeve and handed it to Li Ci.
Li Ci looked puzzled and took it as he was told. He opened it and looked at it. The more he looked at it, the more solemn his face became. Finally, he reached out and closed the account book tightly and said, "Shilang Wen is interested."
Wen Zhi had a smile on his face as he stood up to say goodbye, cupping his hands and saying, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will never tell anyone else about this matter."
Li Ci waved his hand and he left.
There was silence in the hall, only the red-hot coals placed in the center of the hall were burning, and occasionally made a small crackling sound. Li Ci's eyes crossed the hall and fell on the white snow outside the window. The guards under the eaves, the snowflakes Floating down sparsely, I believe it will be clear before long.
She squeezed the account book tightly with her hands, stood up suddenly, and walked out hurriedly until she reached the door of the Hubu Yamen. When the driver of Prince Yong's Mansion saw his master coming out, he hurriedly greeted him and asked if he would go back to Prince Yong's Mansion. Li Ci nodded and walked towards the carriage of Prince Yong's Mansion. What others saw was Prince Yong leaving in a hurry as if something urgent had happened.
"Your Highness." Li Ci hurried back to the house. After the waiter came forward to take off her coat to keep out the cold, he ducked into the study and ordered that no one was allowed to come in.
Everyone did not dare to disobey and agreed.
Li Ci entered the study and saw the burning charcoal fire. He hurriedly walked over and pulled out the account book Wen Zhi had given her from his sleeve and put it into it. However, he suddenly stopped midway. The edge of the account book was still there. It was burnt to a scorched black, turned into ashes and fell into the charcoal brazier. She regretted it again, turned around and took out a wooden lacquer box on the bookshelf, put the account book inside and hid it.
This account book felt a little hot in her hands. She did not expect that King Xiang would be so bold. After embezzling salt, taxes, and silver, he would dare to get his hands on the tributes. Over the years, he had secretly acquired many good things, all of which were recorded in this account book. He kept it secretly, but now Wen Zhi found it and handed it over to her.
It is a serious crime to embezzle tribute, especially the prince, who is more likely to be accused of treason and evil intentions. Is King Xiang stupid or too bold?
Now that this account book is in her hands, it will definitely not be a good thing. Now that King Zhou is the only one in power, it is impossible for her to expose this matter, nor to let King Xiang know that she holds something fatal to him. Burning the account book was undoubtedly the best solution, but she regretted it at the end.
A gust of cold wind suddenly blew in through the open window. Li Ci shrank. Looking at the vast white field outside the window, he suddenly understood something.
At the end of winter in the 31st year of the Showa Period, on the birthday of the late empress, Emperor Zhaohe personally offered a memorial ceremony. The next day, when he heard at the court that King Xiang had paid homage to the late empress yesterday, he felt so sad that he almost fainted. The emperor felt his filial piety and ordered the lifting of King Xiang's ban. At the same time, the princess of Hua Dynasty who was far away in Jiazhou petitioned to come to Beijing to celebrate the New Year. Emperor Zhaohe rejected the request, but at the same time sent many rewards and granted the princess of Hua Dynasty a fief.
