"Brother Ming." Zhou Rui walked to Ming Jingzhou who lowered his head to sort out the book: "I heard that the kitchen has made two new dishes today, so let's try it."

Ming Jingzhou looked at Zhou Rui with a smile: "Brother Zhou, you and I have been together for many years, so I can just say anything."

Zhou Rui pulled Ming Jingzhou to the corner: "I know you may have some opinions about His Highness Chen, but if you treat him like this in the Ministry of Rites, if it is heard by Your Majesty, it will probably make Your Majesty unhappy."

"King Chen is lazy and irritable. Copying things can temper his character." Ming Jingzhou patted Zhou Rui on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Brother Zhou, even if Your Majesty knows, he will not be able to point out my mistake."

Zhou Rui was speechless. On the surface, he could not point out any mistakes, but who didn't know that this was deliberately making things difficult for others?

The emperor issued an order to give your family two titles, not to make you slow down on your son. I know that your Ming family is very stubborn, but at this time, you don’t have to be so stubborn.

"Mr. Ming, Master Zhou."

Zhou Rui turned around and saw that King Chen came in with two large food boxes in his own hands. The eunuch who was following him was empty-handed.

"Mr. Ming, please have a meal." King Chen put one of the food boxes on the table, and there was a hint of smile on his face.

Ming Jingzhou recognized that the food box belonged to his own. Then look at the food box belonged to King Chen, which belonged to him.

Why did their food box be in the hands of King Chen?

Zhou Rui looked at this scene and saw that King Chen smiled respectfully at Brother Ming, and his mood became a little complicated.

King Chen was indeed a bit domineering in the past, but since he came to the Ministry of Rites, he obediently did whatever Brother Ming asked him to do. I'm afraid he still doesn't know that Brother Ming was deliberately perfunctory to him.

Thinking of the recent improvement in the Ministry of Rites, all the food was replaced with new tables, chairs, doors and windows, and the supply of good charcoal was never stopped, Zhou Rui looked at King Chen and became much more kind.

In the past, I only thought that King Chen was not motivated and arrogant and rude. After working together, I found that this prince was not as hateful as the s. As for his advantages, I searched carefully and patiently, there were still one or two.

"Brother Ming, you have a meal with the prince slowly, I will say goodbye first."

Remember that the son-in-law who brings meals to his future father-in-law should be nowhere short of it.

When he left, Zhou Rui thoughtfully closed the door of the future father-in-law and son-in-law.

"Why does Your Highness have a food box from the Mansion?" Ming Jingzhou opened the food box and saw that it contained the food he liked, and his brows stretched out.

"It was sent by Miss Ming." King Chen thought for a while, sat down in Ming Jingzhou's room, and opened his own food box.

Ming Jingzhou frowned again, his daughter came to deliver food, why did King Chen go to get the food box?

Looking at the dishes in King Chen’s lunch box, they are actually different from him?

When King Chen saw the dishes in the food box, he was slightly stunned. These were the dishes he liked to eat on weekdays. He didn't eat at the same table with Ming Xiaozhu many times. He didn't expect that she would even remember which dish he was interested in.

She just valued him so much?

When Ming Jingzhou put down the chopsticks, he saw that King Chen was still eating. He read a few pages of the book before waiting for King Chen to put down the chopsticks.

"Your Highness, the food box will be left at the empress. When the empress is worth it today, take the food box back."

Even if you eat his food, you can't take the food box away. It costs two taels of silver to customize this kind of food box.

"I'm sorry, Lord Ming." King Chen washed and sorted out under the servitude of his attendant: "The tax book that the Lord asked the younger generation to copy has been copied."

"The tax booklets in various places are published in the six departments. I am very pleased that Your Highness can calm down and copy them." Ming Jingzhou picked up the digestive tea and took a sip: "It's just that I am old and stupid. I don't remember the tax revenue in Liuzhou last year. Do you still remember it?"

"Liuzhou Prefecture suffered a drought last year. My father could not bear to the local people's suffering and was exempted from taxes of 70%. The annual tax was only more than 235,000 guan, and rice, grain, silk and cloth were affected."

After Emperor Longfeng ascended the throne, he worked diligently and loved the people, but did not like to waste the people and damage their wealth. It is not surprising that a state tax exceeds one million yuan per year.

"Your Highness is good at memory." Ming Jingzhou nodded: "Your Majesty loves the people as much as his son, and he cannot bear the people's displaced and their wives and children. It is a blessing for the people to have such a wise ruler."

"Only people have a country, and agriculture is the foundation of the country." Ming Jingzhou picked up several thick books of agricultural tools collected by the Ministry of Works from the table: "Your Highness, this is the statistics list of iron and agricultural tools in various prefectures and counties. You can open it when you are bored in your spare time."

"Thank you, Lord Ming." King Chen took the farm tools to make the book. Seeing that Ming Jingzhou had no intention of paying attention to him, he took the statistics book and left the door lazily.

An official passing by saw the agricultural iron in his hand making book, and turned his head and pretended not to see it.

As long as they didn't see it, they didn't know that Ming Jingzhou was deliberately perfunctory to King Chen.

"Ming Jingzhou was really perfunctory to Yun Duqing. The two titles given to the Ming family by his father was considered useless." King Huai picked up the wine glass on the table and raised his head to drink: "So what if the father is partial? How can the ministers in the court endure such a ridiculous act?

Among the few brothers, he was the biggest. When his father lost power, the ministers who supported him were deposed, and the father was imprisoned in the royal palace. All the brothers and sisters were anxious, but Yun Duqing was heartless and pestered his father to play with him, completely unaware of the predicament of the royal palace.

Children who are ignorant since childhood will not be too steady when they grow up. Yun Duqing was appointed as the king at a young age and acted casually. Even the teacher who taught him was so angry that his father could not blame him too much.

"The Ming and Sun families both got married to the royal family, but the holy heart was very different."

"The king and the second brother are both married, and our princess's family has not been awarded the title because of marriage." King Huai snorted coldly: "Yun Duqing is just a spoiled fool, and the Ming family is unwilling to help him, so it is not afraid of it. However, Yun Yanze is best at winning people's hearts and is quite famous in the court. He is the biggest concern of this king."

"Then we don't have to worry about King Chen for the time being?"

"If you have anything to do, let him copy books in the Ministry of Rites slowly." King Huai said gloatingly, "I even suspect that the accident at the Royal Horse Farm is related to the fourth son and the son. Concubine Ning, the woman, was gentle and considerate on the surface, and was well-educated, but was actually a woman with a vicious heart."

He still remembers that when he was ten years old, Zheng pushed the cat into the lotus pond. Seeing it struggling to death, he let go of the cat aside.

With such a mother, King Qi, who looks as gentle as jade, can be kind?

"Prince, Your Majesty is urgently summoned!" A long voice sounded outside the door.

King Huai put down his wine glass and immediately stood up: "Prepare the horse."

King Huai rushed to the palace and found that the six ministers and several other brothers were there. He looked at the King of Qi who was standing with the Minister of Revenue, then looked at the King of Chen who was standing with the Minister of Rites, and walked to the Minister of Justice to stand firm.

"Boss, have you drunk?" Emperor Longfeng frowned slightly when he smelled the wine on his eldest son.

"Father." King Huai quickly apologized: "Please calm down your anger. Today, the Ministry of Justice will rest, and my son will take a few drinks in the mansion."

"Drinking alcohol harms your body, don't overdo it." Emperor Longfeng turned his attention to the ministers of the six ministries: "Youzhou urgently reported that Youzhou suffered a snow disaster that was rare in decades. My dear friends discussed a disaster relief process."

"Youzhou is only a few hundred kilometers away from the capital. If you rush to the horse, it will not take a few days to reach Youzhou." The Minister of Works said: "But be careful to keep the cold air going south so as not to be affected by snow in neighboring prefectures and counties."

"Your Majesty, I will count the disaster relief materials and send them to Youzhou urgently." The Minister of Revenue hesitated for a moment: "It's just that the people are afraid of panic when they are affected by disasters. I am superficial and I will be elected to Youzhou to help the local disaster relief."

"What I said is reasonable." Emperor Longfeng nodded, "Do you have a suitable candidate?"

The Minister of Revenue bowed: "There are many capable ministers in the court, but they are appointed by Your Majesty."

"Father, my son minister has a choice." King Huai was drunk and said, "Wu Mian, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Works, is very suitable."

The King of Qi sneered in his heart and recommended his father-in-law to rescue the disaster. He, a good brother, really drank too much.

"Fourth brother, can anyone choose your heart?" Emperor Longfeng looked at him.

"My son thinks that Lord He of the Ministry of Personnel and Lord Zhang of the Ministry of War can take on this important task."

King Huai glanced at King Qi, thinking that he didn't know that He Yu and Zhang Yinglian were King Qi's lackeys?

"What do you think of me?"

Several ministers had different opinions on the selection of disaster relief officers. Emperor Longfeng held the teacup and let them quarrel. He also ordered the departments to prepare disaster relief supplies and immediately sent them to Youzhou.

King Chen listened to the quarrels of these people, leaned lazily on the hall pillar and yawned.

"Duqing." Emperor Longfeng saw King Chen's bored look: "Do you have a suitable candidate?"

The six ministers and several other princes turned their heads and looked at King Chen, with a very wonderful expression. It would be better to ask him what kind of crickets fighting are so powerful.

Emperor Longfeng seemed to have no idea what others thought of King Chen, and still looked at his son with anticipation.

"My son thinks..." King Chen remembered that in the first-class Jinshi Celebrity Prose Question Paper that Ming Jingzhou asked him to read, the questions answered by Wu Mian seemed to be related to disaster relief and people. It was also meaningful, not a general discussion. Even people like him who were ignorant of learning and ignorant thought they answered very well.

"The snow disaster is too severe, and many houses must have collapsed. As the Minister of Works, Lord Wu Mian should have a good understanding of civil engineering and construction projects. Why not let Wu Mian go?" King Chen stood up straight, as if the lazy man just now was not him.

King Qi smiled and looked at King Huai, and Yun Duqing actually helped the boss?

When King Huai was confused when he heard Yun Duqing talking to him. Even if Yun Duqing was foolish, he should have known that Wu Mian was his father-in-law, so why did he even talk to him?

“好,既然渡卿也赞成老大的提议,那这次救灾,就由吴勉前去.”隆丰帝抬手招来侍卫:“即刻宣吴勉进宫.”

Li En glanced at King Chen standing beside him with complicated eyes. He was classmates with Wu Mian. He knew Wu Mian very well. Among the candidates proposed by the prince, Wu Mian was indeed the most suitable candidate.

At this moment, King Chen recommended Wu Mian. Was it a mistake or aware of his abilities?

Seeing that King Chen leaned lazily towards the pillar again, Li En withdrew his gaze.

He blamed him for thinking too much, it was just a coincidence.

The disaster relief matters were discussed, and the ministers and the prince withdrew from the main hall, but only King Chen was kept by the emperor.

King Qi smiled and looked at King Huai: "Brother cares for the younger brother, and even the fifth brother is deeply in love with you."

Being hit by a black pot falling from the sky, King Huai: "..."

How could he know what Yun Duqing was going crazy?

"Haha, as the elder brother, it is appropriate to take care of the younger brother." King Huai smiled: "Your brother's feelings for you and the fifth brother are the same."

No matter which younger brother is in his heart, he is always flirting with the goods. What's the difference?

"Brother has always been a benevolent brother." King Qi bowed: "Goodbye."

"Let's go slowly, don't send me off." King Huai smiled and bowed his hand to return the gift. What he hated the most was Yun Yanze's hypocritical appearance.

King Yun of Qi calmly got on the carriage, and the smile on his face disappeared: "Go and check, Yun Liu'an and Yun Duqing, what are the recent interactions?"

There is no legitimate son in the palace, and Yun Liu'an Zhan's eldest son. If Yun Duqing, who is favored by his father, turns to support the boss, the situation will be greatly detrimental to him.

“父皇,您留下儿臣,是有什么话要问?”宸王坐在椅子上又打了两个哈欠,昨晚翻看州县农具铁器册,看得他脑门都大了一圈.

But he didn't dare not ignore it. If Ming Jingzhou asked the question inside, he couldn't answer it, how could he be embarrassed to show off his ability in front of Ming Xiaozhu in the future?

"Go to bed early tonight." Emperor Longfeng saw him yawning and asked the palace maid to bring him awakening tea, "I am young and listless."
