After resigning, I switched to fortune-telling

Chapter 72

When writing the resignation memorial for her eldest son, Jianshuang seriously thought that it is more likely that His Majesty will be angry when he sees this memorial.

In fact, the situation was pretty much the same as she thought.

On the first day, if Xie Tang didn't come to the court, Shang Qingyao left for the morning court.

On the second day, Yu Shitai read the book of Wei Guogong's son's deeds, but Shang Qingyao stayed in the middle and didn't say anything.

On the third day, the Minister of Rites asked His Majesty to stand up as a queen.

Chen Shangshu is very proud recently, his own son has done a great job in rescuing him, not only has he received many rewards, but he is also honored as a father. When discussing relatives, everyone said that Chen Huizhou must have a bright future after this time.

Once a person is proud, he will forget himself.

This was the case with Chen Shangshu. The heads of several families invited him to drink tea and mentioned that His Majesty has no descendants. Chen Shangshu thought, isn't this the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites?If this is done, it will be his merit!

Chen Shangshu was dazzled, and in the early morning of the next day, he said in the court hall that establishing a queen is an act to stabilize the country's foundation. Only when Shang Qingyao has an heir as soon as possible can the country be stabilized.

——What he said was not wrong at first. It is a big deal in any dynasty to have a queen. If you accidentally set up a not very wise queen, the whole front and back palace will be full of smog.

But it happened to hit the muzzle.

Shang Qingyao sat at the head, looking over the ministers in the hall one by one: "You all think so?"

Those who were more vigilant heard something wrong in the emperor's tone earlier, and lowered their heads in unison, holding the jade wat in their hands, looking at their noses, noses, and hearts, without saying a word.There were also less perceptive courtiers who came out to echo the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.

Establishing a queen is indeed a major event for the country, and it is of great significance to His Majesty.But... His Majesty obviously doesn't want his courtiers to intervene.

"Chen Shangshu means that my throne still needs a queen whose name is unknown so far to be stable?"

He bit the word "queen" very hard, and all the officials were silent like cicadas.Chen Shangshu's heart skipped a beat, looking at the extremely oppressive cold gaze of the King of God, the words Chen Shangshu wanted to justify stuck in his throat, and he couldn't even utter a single syllable.

"........."

In the end, it was no surprise that Chen Shangshu, who had just been complimented by all the officials because of his son's meritorious service in saving his family, was shunned by all the officials like a plague god after going to court.

The young emperor expressed his attitude on the matter of "establishing a queen" with a tough attitude.The ministers took a step back silently, revealing their leeway - the style of the new emperor is completely different from that of the previous emperor, a capable monarch naturally does not want his courtiers to interfere too much with the monarch's decision, so a courtier naturally needs to be knowledgeable, it is just a step back.

At this moment, these courtiers have not realized that this will definitely not be the first time they have bowed to the emperor's will.

On the fourth day, the memorial of Xie Tangru's resignation was sent to Shang Qingyao's desk.

Standing behind the emperor, the head servant couldn't see his expression, but could vaguely see the edge of the memorial that was pinched and slightly wrinkled. After a while, Shang Qingyao said: "Winter is coming soon."

This is a completely irrelevant sentence, and the chief servant is a little confused, "Yes, the beginning of winter will be in a while, and I heard from Qin Tianjian that there will be heavy snow this year. There is a lot of snow in a good year, and I think the harvest in the coming year must be good."

He picked up nice words to say, while carefully observing the emperor's face.

"I remember he was a little chilly, the charcoal fire in the palace should be warmer." The emperor suddenly said something in a low voice, and the old lady who had gone through two dynasties could clearly monitor him - but at this moment he only wished that he had never heard this at all. In a word, for no reason, he recalled the emperor lost his temper in the previous dynasty because of his successor.

... Is it because the emperor is unwilling to be a queen, or is it because the candidate recommended by the ministers is not the one he wants?

The old eunuch couldn't make up his mind.

Shang Qingyao took the memorial and read it again. It wasn't Xie Tangru's handwriting. He reckoned that someone around him wrote it for him.

"So perfunctory." The emperor laughed, "You see, I haven't dealt with him yet, but he sensed the rumors and obediently resigned."

"Your Majesty Xie has indeed acted as he pleases." The chief servant figured out that the emperor didn't seem to be furious, and said, "However, this old servant has the courage to say that if His Majesty hadn't let His Majesty let him indulge him, how could His Majesty have the opportunity to develop such an arrogant and indulgent temperament."

The emperor did not speak for a long time, and suddenly said after a while: "I remember that some palaces in the palace have not been repaired for a long time."

This is the question of the job of the chief servant. He was shocked and replied: "Yes. The Ministry of Industry should be responsible for this matter. I remember Xingqing Palace and Baohua Palace..." The chief servant named several palaces in succession. , "... are a bit dilapidated and need to be repaired."

The emperor had no special reaction.

Something flashed and landed in the head of the housekeeper like a thunderbolt, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration. He tentatively asked: "Your Majesty, the green terrace has been abandoned for many years, how about repairing it together this time?"

The emperor agreed: "Yes."

The chief servant walked out of the hall, the sky was dark and heavy with black clouds, gathered in one place, suddenly there was a strong wind, and it rained heavily in less than a moment.

"The autumn rain is really cold." said the little eunuch holding an umbrella.

Is it still autumn?The chief servant thought in a daze, he thought winter had come.

………………

After resigning from office, Xie Shizi returned to the same dandy habits as before, he didn't get up until the sun was up every day, and when he had nothing to do, he listened to operas, strolled around the garden, and was lazy.

Jianshuang was standing in the corridor feeding the son's new birds, while Xie Yuan sat with his legs bent, half leaning against the painted red and green pillars, talking to Jianshuang.

"I feel that Shizi is different from before when he comes back from the palace this time."

Jianshuang stroked the emerald feathers of the bird. It was a gift from Shang Qinghuai. It had gorgeous feathers and was delicate and beautiful. Xie Tangru didn't have much interest in it, but Jianshuang liked the bird very much and took care of it all the time. The work is also done by her own hands.

"What's the difference?"

"I can't say it." Xie Yuan held back for a long while, and said with gestures, "I feel that the prince seems to be in a bad mood these days. You know that when Shang Qinghuai was rejected by a girl from Ge's hometown two years ago Is it in a depressed state? Shizi is a bit like that state."

Jianshuang pursed her lips: "The eldest son has not been rejected by anyone." What's more, the only one who wants to refuse is his own eldest son who refuses others.

"It's just like it." Xie Yuan muttered.

The door opened suddenly.

Xie Tangru was wearing an azure cloak embroidered with plum blossom branches, and looked at them indifferently.

"........."

Jianshuang immediately continued to feed the bird at hand, Xie Yuan turned his face away as if nothing had happened, pretending that he was sleeping.

Xie Tangru raised his eyelids, his voice was calm and indifferent, "Xie Yuan, since you have nothing to do, then bring Shen Yu back to me."

"Okay, son." Xie Yuan jumped up when he heard the words, and quickly left from Xie Tangru's sight.

Jianshuang smiled nonchalantly: "The weather is getting colder, why don't you come out wearing one more dress?"

"Burning another brazier tomorrow, it won't be as warm as the palace." Xie Tangru raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, his sleeve slipped off, revealing a white, lonely wrist bone.

Jianshuang responded: "...Yes."

The door slowly closed in front of her, and Xie Tangru's back disappeared through the crack of the door.The maid touched Kingfisher's head and suddenly sighed.

Shizi is really not very happy today.

The author has something to say: not happy x2
