Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 378 Rumors
The queen gave birth to a little princess, which was a major event that caused a sensation in the court and the public.

For the emperor, having sons and daughters is considered a complete life, but the court ministers don't think so.

The emperor only has the little prince, the little prince, and the prince came from the belly of the empress Gongsun, which is really too little for the crown prince.

The courtiers who did not deal with Gongsun's family were panicked, and they felt uneasy.

Be sure to let His Majesty draft the draft. As for which cannon fodder to mention this matter, it is very important.

No matter who it is, it can't be me anyway.

Those daring ones have already hit a snag. The last time they sent portraits to the palace, the good daughters had to marry far away.

The daughters who have been raised quietly for many years were originally intended to make them contribute to the glory of the family.As a result, the queen mother burned the portraits mercilessly, and these courtiers who presented the portraits seemed to be slapped loudly by the queen mother in front of all civil and military officials.

Although the emperor didn't dislike them because of their actions, these courtiers knew more or less in their hearts that their dream of making further progress would never come true.

I heard that some courtiers were secretly planning to persuade the emperor to choose a talent show, some of them watched indifferently, but some of them were still thinking what they shouldn't have.

Today is the day when the little princess Chen Luming washes her hands.

Lu Yange got up early in the morning to wash and wash, went to the Tai Chi Hall, gave Lu Hebei a few words, and then went to see the sleeping little prince.

"His Majesty."

Eunuch Cheng looked at Lu Yange who was going out alone, and asked cautiously, "Little prince?"

"Ming'er washes three times today, let Xing'er sleep for a while, you remember to tell the people below, turn around and ask the little cabinet to send the little prince to Jiaofang hall when he wakes up."

"Yes."

Eunuch Cheng responded, and followed Lu Yange all the way to the Jinluan Hall, and the people around him would naturally do what he ordered the small cabinet to do.

Here, the courtiers have long been waiting outside the Meridian Gate.

Several adults with high positions and weights were led by the eunuch on duty to rest in the warm pavilion at the side.

Compared with those who are exposed to the wind and sun outside, they must be much more comfortable.

Not to mention the windy, rainy, thundery and snowy days, it is also a very important thing for these important officials in the court to get up early and rush to the palace early, to have a place to rest and drink some hot tea. face thing.

There are only a few important ministers who can sit in this warm pavilion and drink tea. No matter how much disputes there are in the court, everyone is still in harmony in this small world.

Zhen Guogong sat alone on one side, holding a bowl of hot tea and slowly tasting it.

There is a new little princess in the palace, and his daughter-in-law is also pregnant.

The current Duke of Zhen's mansion already has two young grandchildren. Duke of Zhen heard from his wife yesterday that he would bring his daughter-in-law to the palace today to make fun of him.

Duke Zhen couldn't help showing a faint smile on his face when he thought that next year he would have a soft, waxy and cute little granddaughter in his mansion.

The son is excellent, the daughter-in-law is filial, the two grandsons are smart and cute, and there will be a little granddaughter who will not be born next year.Zhen Guogong felt that compared with Gongsun Xiangye on the opposite side, he had already stood at the pinnacle of his life, and he was not dissatisfied.

Gongsun Xiangye sat across from Zhen Guogong, also drinking tea with a smile on his face.

Although the daughter of the grandson is a little princess, she is not dissatisfied with Gongsun Xiangye.

It is best to have one son and one daughter, a little prince and a little princess, this is the best of both worlds.

He doesn't care what other people say, as long as his granddaughter doesn't make any serious mistakes and the little prince grows up safely and healthily, he will live his life in vain.

In the warm pavilion, several adults drank tea and ate snacks, looking very happy.

It was not yet clear, and outside the Nuan Pavilion there were only a few lanterns to illuminate the world, and the dark place that the lanterns could not illuminate, was vaguely visible what was hidden.

The candlelight swayed, only covering the world in front of the eyes.

While the courtiers were talking in low voices, Zhou Yang strolled over under the guidance of the little eunuch.

Just at this moment, the twilight morning sun suddenly pushed away the darkness from the clouds, and shone in. The world that was originally shrouded in darkness suddenly had a hazy outline.

Zhou Yang, who came striding forward, was wearing a purple round-neck official robe, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his figure was tall and straight, which made him look more and more extraordinary among a group of court officials.

"Master Zhou."

"General Zhou."

Familiar and unfamiliar, everyone stepped forward to say hello.

Everyone knows that Lord Zhou is a close minister of the emperor and is very favored.

Some inconvenient things that the emperor could not do were handed over to Zhou Yang, who was born as a general.

Not to mention that General Zhou got this high position at such a young age, just because he can freely enter and exit the Emperor's Tai Chi Hall, it can be seen that the Emperor loves Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang nodded lightly, and instead of entering the side hall where the important officials were, he slightly lowered his eyes to straighten out the uncluttered court clothes.

Not far away, Tang Jinming glanced over lightly, and then looked away.

Compared with Zhou Yang's extraordinary handsomeness, Tang Jinming, who is also in a high position at a young age, has a little more bookish air, which makes him look gentle and jade-like.The people around Tang Jinming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw Tang Jinming's gaze flicked over Zhou Yang and then retracted.

Sure enough, the rumors are true, the two youngest adults who are most valued by the emperor have always been at odds.

The Zhou family was the Marquis' residence of the former dynasty. Although the Zhou family made some efforts in it when the first emperor fought the world, everyone vaguely looked down on the Zhou family's rebellion.

Zhou Yang's ability to win the emperor's fancy is only because the emperor lacks a sharp blade, and Zhou Yang is precisely this sharp blade that can be held in his hands.

Tang Jinming is different, his father is the Duke of Zhen Guo, and he grew up with the emperor since he was a child.Tang Jinming's mother was close to the queen mother, and Tang Jinming also married the emperor's cousin, the only daughter of the Shen family.

Of these two people, who will stand tallest and who will go further in the court in the future, it is self-evident in everyone's mind.

It can be seen from the fact that Tang Jinming is surrounded by more than a dozen court officials, while Zhou Yang has been alone.

"Master Zhou."

A young man wearing a habayashi guard came over a few steps, approached Zhou Yang and whispered a few words.

"Ah."

Zhou Yang nodded, but did not speak.

After the visitor finished speaking, he clasped his fists and hurriedly ran in the same direction.

The surrounding courtiers looked at Zhou Yang's upright figure and whispered, only Tang Jinming narrowed his eyes as he watched Habayashi Wei going away.

this person?

It seems to be Chen Xiaohu.

The cousin of Lu Xingge's cousin, he met once at Shen's house.

What did Chen Xiaohu ask Zhou Yang for?
Tang Jinming didn't show anything on his face, he tilted his head slightly as if he was listening to the words of the courtiers around him, but his heart was turbulent.

The expressions of these two people were very familiar, looking at Chen Xiaohu's expression, it seemed that he was obeying Zhou Yang's orders.

Tang Jinming seemed to remember something, the sleeves under his official robe drooped, covering his clenched fists.

Many people couldn't understand Zhou Yangde's importance to the emperor, even Tang Jinming couldn't understand why the emperor suddenly used this person.

Now that he saw Chen Xiaohu, he thought of Lu Yange who brought Chen Xiaohu into the capital and Lu Qingluan into the palace.

There was a loud buzz in Tang Jinming's head, his body swayed, and he couldn't help but raise his hand to press his forehead.
