Poor family mother and son

Chapter 637
Royal Palace.

Chu Qing thought that the emperor wanted to summon him, but after entering the palace, he didn't walk in the direction of the imperial study.

The little eunuch helped Chu Qing carry two food boxes and lead the way ahead, which was a bit difficult.

Chu Qing looked at his back, he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, his physique was very thin, and he was not as tall as Xiaobao, so he couldn't bear it, and said "Let me carry it!" and stepped forward to take it.

"How dare you?!" The little eunuch panicked and grabbed the handle of the food box tightly, as if afraid of being robbed, with resentment "Are you causing trouble for me" in his eyes.

Chu Qing swallowed, put her hands behind her back: "Lead the way!"

Good intentions are not necessarily good things.

Each perform their duties, the little eunuch does what he should do, if someone helps or replaces him, it means that he is incompetent; if his status is higher than him and he still needs to help him with things, then it's over, just wait for the punishment.

All the way to the Queen's bedroom, the Queen and Princess Zhaohua were both there, Zhaohua stood up to greet her: "Teacher!"

What a polite boy!Chu Qing didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly saluted, "I've seen the queen, I've seen Princess Zhaohua!"

The queen smiled: "I'm waiting for you to cook!"

Chu Qing: "Huh?"

The palace lady took the food box and said with a smile: "The cured duck liver sausage you sent last time was eaten by the emperor, and the empress and the princess have not satisfied their hunger yet."

More than three catties, all eaten?I can't kill you!

So don't take royal politeness seriously.

Chu Qing: "When the minister leaves the palace, let Qingwatai give it to you. Do you think it's better to give it every five days or every ten days?"

"Hahahaha!" Laughter came from behind, the queen, the princess and all the maids and eunuchs began to kneel, Chu Qing turned around: It's the emperor, hurry up and salute.

The emperor said: "No, no, I'll take advantage of it, can we have dinner?"

This was the first time for Chu Qing to see the emperor calling himself "I" like a commoner, and saying "serve dinner", thinking, so the life of the emperor's family is similar to that of ordinary people?

The family of three had a meal, and Chu Qing, an outsider sitting there to accompany him, was quite uncomfortable, and he couldn't help eating two or three, always picking up the little rice in the bowl.

"It's said that there are many people eating and it's lively, and we all eat with you. Chu Qing, why don't you eat well?" The emperor saw Chu Qing's restraint, but asked deliberately: "I remember you eat a lot, why, afraid Not enough food?"

Then he told the queen and princess about the "feat" that Chu Qing ate a double serving of "rice bowl" when he presented the map of Voss.

Oops, old Chu Qing blushed, and even the chopsticks felt extremely heavy.

"I vented my anger on you, how can you thank me?" the emperor asked.

Chu Qing: "Huh?"

Princess Zhaohua quit: "Mother, obviously I told Mother, but Dad just listened to it, and it's not up to Dad to thank you, right?"

Chu Qing's eyes were full of confusion, not knowing what to say.

The emperor: "Okay, okay, it's Zhaohua's credit, so Master Du was sent by Zhaohua to rescue Chu Qing?"

Princess Zhaohua: "...huh!"

The three members of this family imitated the daily life of ordinary people by their imaginations, nondescript, and they were tired and flustered after seeing it clearly, but they also understood: it turned out that Du Shaoyi went to Qingwatai that day was appointed by the emperor.

Chu Qing looked at the emperor with complicated emotions, fully understanding in her heart that when she wanted to help the little eunuch carry the food box, the little eunuch's resentful eyes: Mind your own business!
It's fine for those officials to target me, but the Honglu Temple, which is out of reach, will probably bear a grudge against me, right?
Seeing the emperor's expression of "I have my backing, you can just slap them in the face", Chu Qing reluctantly said, "Thank you."

What kind of backing is this?Besides, how can there be so many cool things in the world?

Coolness is just a short-lived feeling at a certain moment in life, not daily life.

Behind every cool thing, you have to pay a lot of effort, and it may also be a huge price.

How cool it is to stand on the reef and take a selfie!The price is a wave, and there is no possibility of being shot to death on the beach.

The emperor called Chu Qing here, but he actually wanted to hear the content of the contract signed by Chu Qing and the fourth prince. Although Chu Qing had already reported it to the secret investigation department, and Hu Hengqiu had also reported it to the emperor, the emperor still wanted to hear Chu Qing's thoughts .

Chu Qing was not sure what the emperor wanted to hear, did he want the jade mine?Or about selling animal plows?

Chu Qing said: "I didn't expect that a dignified prince would not even be able to get a hundred thousand taels of silver. Since he himself proposed to pay the money with jade mines, I had no choice but to agree."

The emperor asked: "You just promised a thousand iron plows, but have you ever thought about how much iron you can melt and how many weapons you can make?"

Because of iron!Isn't that what you agreed with me to sell for money?

Chu Qing said: "About [-] catties of iron can arm [-] heavy armored cavalry, but this is the level that our Daxuan's ironmaking technology can achieve, and there won't be too much loss;
One thousand iron plows, each with 100 taels, totaling 10 taels of silver, armed with [-] heavy cavalry, I don't know that King Voss will not give up. "

The emperor disagreed: "What if it is replaced by an arrow?"

Chu Qing said: "If you send troops to fight, they will starve to death; if they want to eat enough, they will not be able to send troops. This is the current situation in Voss;
If you want to take care of both ends, unless their major tribes can unite... At present, if they can unite, they will not come to us to ask for help. "

Chu Qing thought about it, would the emperor not understand this account?It shouldn't be!Then he said tentatively: "Oh, your majesty, I guess I will be impeached as 'an enemy'."

Chu Qing expressed to the emperor with his eyes: This is where you should be the backer!

The cured duck liver sausage that the emperor was chewing in his mouth couldn't swallow: I mentioned this to you to remind you to be ready to be impeached, and you will be pushed back!
Seeing the emperor staring blankly, looking like he was choking, the empress thoughtfully served the emperor a bowl of soup, and Princess Zhaohua simply pushed a pile of vegetables to the emperor's eyes, and "by the way" moved the cured duck liver sausage to her side.

Before the emperor could speak, Chu Qing began to change the subject: "The food in the palace is still delicious, and there are all kinds of green vegetables. It's cold, and there are not many vegetable leaves in the market;
Princess, can I tell you a joke for dinner? "

When she heard the story, Princess Zhaohua's eyes lit up. She never knew that the textile teacher who was engaged in intelligence could tell stories: "Really? Tell me, teacher!"

Chu Qing then said: "In other words, the Tathagata sent Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva to go to the east to find a sutra taker, to go to the west to get sutras, and to persuade all living beings;

The selected person is Xuanzang, a monk. He has three apprentices, Sun Wukong, Zhu Wuneng, and Sha Wujing.

The monk in the Guanyin Temple seeks the treasure, the black wind mountain monster steals the cassock, and the Monkey King...

The meritorious Cao of Pingdingshan sent a message, the mother of Lianhua Cave was in disaster, and Monkey King...

The Bull Demon King strikes off and goes to the Huayan, Sun Xingzhe tunes the plantain fan twice, Princess Iron Fan...and then...

Along the way, Monk Xuanzang was very moved, and he sang a little song to his apprentice affectionately: Don't blame the master for nagging

wear a gold hoop

Don't be afraid to die, don't tremble

I'll take the blame

send you to death
Do your best for everyone
It's worth the sacrifice..."
