Chapter 722 A night banquet with different motives(1/2)
In front of the Zuo Prime Minister’s Mansion!
"See Your Majesty!"
"No gift!"
“Huh…”
Emperor Xia was wearing casual clothes, followed by Eunuch Wei, and asked knowingly: "I heard that the left prime minister held a banquet for the right prime minister tonight, and invited the six ministers and the censors. Why didn't they come out to greet me?"
Along the way, the secret reports from the Imperial City Department kept going... The six ministers pretended to be sick and could not come. Emperor Xia knew everything about the censors and doctors coming and going in a hurry!
"Ahem......"
Sima Jian replied a little embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, the Censor is busy with official duties, and the six ministers of the Ministry of Justice were infected with the cold due to this heavy snow, so they could not attend today's night banquet!"
now.
The Sima General Manager's face was hot!
The Sima family is embarrassed today!
Depressed!
"Hahaha......"
Emperor Xia smiled without any face: "These guys don't give your beloved face, and let your beloved down on your usual kindness to them!"
"I'll come tonight, can you welcome me?"
"Your Majesty is here, and the Sima family is full of glory!"
Sima Jian said respectfully: "Please please in your Majesty!"
"I like to drink Huangzhou spirits recently and eat Huangzhou food. Are you prepared?"
"Of course there is!"
"Your Majesty, what you prepared in the mansion today was mostly Huangzhou food, and Huangzhou spirits were also prepared!"
"That's a coincidence!"
Emperor Xia smiled meaningfully: "Then I will try the delicious food and wine of Zuo Xiang Mansion!"
"It's my honor!"
Emperor Xia stepped into the mansion and said, "Xiao Jiu, my father will come to borrow the Sima family's wine to celebrate your merits!"
"You did a good job this time and made great contributions to the court, saying...How do you want me to reward you?"
Xia Tian said seriously: "Father, since the seventh emperor's brother was deposed, rumors spread among the people that the father wanted to make his son the crown prince, so that his son could not bear the trouble. Therefore, the son asked his father to make his son the new crown prince as soon as possible and let him
I can concentrate on serving the court and not be troubled by rumors!”
"Yeah?"
Emperor Xia asked meaningfully: "Who among your royal brothers can enter the Eastern Palace?"
"Sixth Brother!"
Emperor Xia glanced at Xia Tian deeply and refused to comment: "Will he fight against the stone lion in front of the East Palace?"
summer:"......"
"There is no rush to discuss this matter later!"
"yes!"
"Today, I'm drinking!"
Soon after.
Emperor Xia sat upright in the main seat and picked up the wine glass: "I hope that you, left and right ministers, will work together to help me manage the world well!"
"Abide by the order!"
The three of them drank it all in one go!
Emperor Xia raised his glass again: "Xiaojiu, this is a celebration wine!"
"As soon as you enter the North Korea, you can properly resettle refugees, accumulate wealth for the treasury, do things decisively and resolutely, and bravely exceed my expectations... I am very pleased!"
Xia Tian looked humble: "Father, my son is just trying his best to do things. As for whether he offended the civil and military officials of the court and whether he offended the wealthy families all over the world, my son is no longer concerned!"
The cold light flashed in Emperor Xia's eyes: "The father and the emperor know this. In the future, if someone uses this matter to stir up trouble, I will make the decision for you!"
"Sima Aiqing, do you know what to do?"
Sima Jian: "..."
"Know!"
Emperor Xia said this sentence to Sima Jian.
When Sima Jian heard it, it means that all officials in the court will know it!
"Thank you, Father!"
finally.
Emperor Xia still couldn't help asking: "Xiaojiu, are you asking me today to live in the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion to avoid entering the palace to accompany me?"
Sima Jian's eyes flashed continuously!
It turns out that this kid lives in Sima's Mansion not only to alienate his relationship with various wealthy families, but also to have a private meeting with Mei'er, but also to escape the unfreedom of living in the palace!
One stone, three birds with one bird!
It's his style of doing things!
"Of course not!"
Xia Tian flatly denied: "My son just entered the court and was completely disgusted with the government. He needed guidance from the left minister and lived close to him. He could ask for advice if he had something to do!"
Emperor Xia looked disbelief: "It has been found out that the Zuo Prime Minister was framed, and this matter has nothing to do with him, so there is no need to avoid suspicion!"
"But, Sima Aiqing is not well-managed for his tribe, so he will be suspended for another three days!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Sima Jian looked grateful: "I must take good care of my tribe members, and this will never happen again!"
"very good!"
Emperor Xia then turned to Xia Tian and said, "Xiao Jiu, in three days, Sima Aiqing will lift the ban, so you can move into the palace!"
"yes!"
Xia Tian never had any excuses: "My son obeys the order!"
"Live in the palace in three days!"
When he moved into the palace, he could be closer to Concubine Qin, a little closer to the underground palace of Jixia, and a little closer to the truth in the underground palace of Jixia.
However, he wanted Emperor Xia to think that he did not want to enter the palace!
This is very skillful!
After three rounds of wine.
Emperor Xia said seriously: "Last night, the Heiman National Master was killed in the palace and his head was taken away. How should I explain this to the Heiman Empire?"
"What?"
Sima Jian was a little surprised: "If this matter is not handled properly, Emperor Heiman will definitely not give up!"
"Then my dear, think about the solution!"
"yes!"
"Xiaojiu, think about the solution to this matter, and we will discuss it tomorrow!"
"yes!"
"Also, rumors about you and Mei'er are spreading everywhere in the imperial capital. You are living in Sima's Mansion now, so you must avoid suspicion and not cause any more rumors!"
"yes!"
Sima Jian is very pleased!
The emperor and his attitude towards this matter are consistent!
Be sure to prevent two people from having a private meeting!
Immediately afterwards.
Emperor Xia, Sima Jian and Xia Tian had a great chat, and the atmosphere in the living room was harmonious.
Finally, late at night.
Emperor Xia left the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion with a seven-minute drunkenness. After entering the sedan chair, the drunkenness in his eyes disappeared: "Old thing, do you say Xiaojiu lives in the Sima family... for Mei'er?"
"I dare not guess the matter of the prince!"
Emperor Xia frowned: "Will Xiaojiu join forces with the Sima family?"
To be continued...
