Chapter 099 The smile does not reach the eyes

What is gold? It is copper coins. If you have money, you will not have to worry about food and clothing.

Mr. Chen suddenly felt that he was vulgar again. He was sorry for his official position as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He spent all his time making money and power. After all, he was also the number one scholar at the beginning.

Children from poor families, it’s not easy, it’s not easy!

"Sir, are you in such a hurry?" Gu Beichen greeted with a smile.

Mr. Chen looked at his gentle and elegant smile, and the more he looked at it, the more comfortable he became.

"Beichen, come on, come on." He waved, gesturing for Gu Beichen to come closer. He said some words that others should not hear.

Gu Beichen took a step forward and said softly, "What are your orders, sir?"

"I don't have any instructions. I just want to ask the court today. Bu Shoufu is going to marry his daughter-in-law to Prince An. What do you think?" Mr. Chen's eyes were deep and his face was serious.

Gu Beichen was startled, but quickly calmed down, "Wei Chen thought it was a good thing."

"Oh? Why do you think so?" Mr. Chen was puzzled and wanted to hear his opinion.

"My princes, whether they have the main concubine or the concubine, they are from the noble ladies of the court. I heard that Bu Shoufu Qianjin is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Even if it is not revealed, it will not be too bad. Bu Shoufu has a high position, but he is

Taking the initiative to show kindness and having various thoughts are not something a junior like Beichen can guess." Gu Beichen still had a gentle face, and his voice was even more elegant and pleasant.

Mr. Chen was silent and quickly nodded again.

His expression was calm and very satisfied.

Turning around and entering the palace, Master Chen's mind was destined to change.

Gu Beichen stood behind him, his smile still on his face, but it didn't reach his eyes.

In the imperial study room

"Your Majesty, my little girl Jia Yao is not sensible. I have already taken her to Bu Shoufu's house to apologize." Mr. Chen stood aside and spoke cautiously and appropriately.

Emperor Renzong glanced at him and said, "Several princes have opened mansions. Do you think I should consider establishing a prince?"

Mr. Chen almost lost his balance due to the sudden movement. Did the emperor just ask about the establishment of a prince? He calmed down and said: "You princes each have their own merits, and they know each other equally." He lowered his head and smiled in apology, cautiously.

He is just a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. If he speaks casually, he will offend all the princes. Maybe the emperor has already planned to find a shit basin to slam it on his head. No matter who is appointed as the prince, he will be better than him.

Dou E still wanted to make a suggestion to the one who was wronged by Dou E. Would he dare?!

Master Chen suddenly felt that his clothes were wet from the front to his back, and he was feeling all kinds of uneasiness. His heart was like a frightened rabbit, and he did not dare to raise his eyes, for fear that the emperor would accidentally punish him for the crime of disrespect.

"Your answer is good. There is no distinction between the two. I just asked, but you are more and more in line with Bu Shoufu." Emperor Renzong was not annoyed, he smiled, but his eyes darkened.

Mr. Chen quickly knelt down and did not dare to say any more, but he murmured in his heart: If I were like Bu Shoufu, would I still be kneeling here and letting you ridicule me?

Besides, that's a fox, teasing a cunning fox. Doesn't such a heavy task require you, the emperor, to do it yourself?

"Okay, get up now. What's your impression of the daughter-in-law of the First Assistant Family?" Emperor Renzong smiled and motioned for him to get up quickly.

Mr. Chen stood up, glanced at the futon mat beside him, and said that no one was allowed to kneel. The futon mat was ready, but it was not meant for people to kneel on. How could it be ignored?

The king's heart is unpredictable, as expected!

One look at the emperor's narrowed eyes, the deep smile, and the fact that Bu Shoufu was a fox. It was clear that he was the one who looked most like a fox. Not only was he a fox, he was also a cruel fox.

"Back to the emperor, Bu Shoufu is very talented. This daughter-in-law is certainly good too. She is well-educated and well-educated." Mr. Chen thought of Gu Beichen's words and suddenly felt that it would be a good idea to marry Bu Shoufu's daughter to Prince An.

"Huh, so it would be nice to be An'er's concubine?" Emperor Renzong picked up the teacup, took a long sip, and said casually.

Mr. Chen's jaw almost dropped in shock. What did the emperor just say? Did he hear it correctly? Concubine?

The emperor actually gave in and allowed the legitimate daughter of the chief minister's family to become Prince An's concubine?

Mr. Chen suddenly felt sympathy and started to come over.

However, if King An succeeds to the throne in the future, this concubine will also be a candidate for the future noble concubine, which is not a grievance.

Now, does the emperor want to make Prince An the crown prince?

Mr. Chen is no longer calm now. Does this, does this count as guessing the secret in the emperor's heart?

He raised his hand and stroked the beads of sweat on his forehead, feeling a little worried.

"Is it very hot in my imperial study?" Emperor Renzong asked again, his eyes still narrowed slightly.

"No, it's not hot." Mr. Chen felt guilty and hurriedly lowered his head.

Emperor Renzong frowned and lightly swept his cheek. His eyebrows were not sharp, but they still made people feel chills on their backs.

Mr. Chen felt a cold wind blowing all over his body.

The sweat beads on my back wetted my shirt over and over again.

It's really hard to stay in this imperial study room, it's easy for people to feel suffocated.

"Master Chen will not ask for leave tomorrow morning," Emperor Renzong's expression remained unchanged, "right?"

Mr. Chen's face was half surprised and half secretly sighing, "I don't dare...I won't ask for leave."

Emperor Renzong smiled and waved his hand to ask him to retreat.

When Mr. Chen bowed and retreated, he took a secret look.

Strangely, the emperor's face was inexplicably filled with joy... He actually felt like he was gloating about his misfortune. Master Chen did not dare to think about it. He put a lot of force on his feet and walked out of the palace gate as if the wind was blowing.

Eunuch Fu looked at him from afar, thinking secretly: The neat steps of this official in the Ministry of Civil Affairs are probably not even comparable to those of the top military scholar.

He turned around and went back to serve tea, "Your Majesty, Master Chen can run really fast."

Emperor Renzong looked at him deeply, his eyes slightly dull.

Eunuch Fu was startled and quickly put down the tea cup, stepped aside, lowered his head and watched, not daring to say anything more.

Just then, the secret guard came in and took out a letter from his arms.

Eunuch Fu quickly presented the result of the letter to the emperor.

Emperor Renzong unfolded the letter and took a few glances, then his expression suddenly changed.

Eunuch Fu saw such a look and hurriedly stepped back.

"This group of subordinates is really unreasonable." Emperor Renzong slapped the case and stood up, his eyes burning with anger.

Eunuch Fu was so frightened that he swallowed hard. Emperor Renzong raised his head, stared at him with blazing eyes, and sneered, "It seems that the ninth brother has to go on an expedition."

Eunuch Fu's heart skipped a beat and he quickly shrank his neck in fear.

How long has it been since Prince Zhan returned to Beijing and he has to go on another expedition?

The Queen Mother is probably going to be angry again. She said she wanted to marry Prince Zhan, but this man, who is neither a man nor a woman, made a fuss, the marriage failed, and he went to war again?

Eunuch Fu secretly cursed: Even a mother would not agree, let alone the Queen Mother. Hey, the Emperor should talk to the Queen Mother himself.

"Go and report to your mother, my ninth brother has to go to war." Emperor Renzong looked at him deeply and ordered.
