When Spring Comes

Chapter 50: Am I serious?

The court was quiet. After listening to the imperial decree, the ministers standing on both sides inevitably felt a little bit of sadness in their hearts. Corruption can only be said to be bad luck. No one wearing an official hat dared to laugh at a hundred steps.

However, for the fact that Prime Minister Hua escaped this catastrophe, everyone felt a light in their hearts-the emperor had already taken care of Prime Minister Hua from the very beginning. Without the protection of the emperor this time, Hua Jinghua would definitely not be able to appear in this court again.

Whether it was because the Prime Minister Hua's attitude became softer, or because the emperor became more mature, after this incident, their attitude towards the Prime Minister should also change accordingly.

At the end of the early morning, Huachun wanted to run.

As a result, he was caught by He Changan and brought it to the emperor.

"Where do you want to go?" Yu Wenjie stared at him and said, "Don't go out of the palace for these two days, just stay with me."

Huachun curled his lips and whispered: "Isn't it possible for the minister to go out and send a friend on the road?"

"Friends?" Yu Wenjie glanced up and down at her, and the expression in his eyes nakedly read: Do people like you have friends?

"Do you want to give off Taishi Tang?" He Changan asked in a low voice.

Huachun nodded and patted He Changan's shoulder with relief: "The second brother still understands me."

"Stupid." Yu Wenjie looked at her with indifferent eyes: "The tree fell and the hen was scattered, and the wall fell and everyone pushed. He was exiled, not returning home."

What can I give? White got into trouble!

Huachun lowered her head and quietly rolled her eyes. This Yuwenjie's heart is mostly made of stone, or diamond. It's not a big deal to give one a gift, it's only two steps, why do you have to follow the **** and push the wall with everyone? Regardless of corruption, Taishi Tang has been loyal to the court for more than ten years. Now that he is exiled, the emperor can't send him off. She, the prime minister, will help him make good relationships. Isn't he happy?

Seeing Huachun's face that dared not speak, He Changan smiled and looked at the emperor and said, "If Jinghua really wants to go, then the minister will go with him. The emperor can rest assured that he will be back soon."

Yu Wenjie frowned and looked at He Changan and said, "You are too used to him."

"There is nothing wrong with what he wants to do." He Changan said: "Occasionally you should be more tolerant."

Listening to this conversation, Hua Chun felt that Yu Wenjie was a strict father, He Changan was a loving mother, and she was a naughty son who wanted to go out to play. The sense of sight of a family of three is simply not too strong!

Why would she be reduced to the point of being a son for someone else? She is obviously a high-status, self-reliant and self-reliant person! Who gave them the power to restrict her actions without authorization?

Angrily, he raised his head but met Yu Wenjie's displeased eyes, dark and bottomless.

The cheek slumped in an instant, and Huachun subconsciously showed him a pleased smile: "Hey."

The servility is probably built up in the bones, and you can't get rid of it! She sometimes mad at herself, she simply hates iron for not making steel! But in front of the strong, she will always choose to play dead like a cockroach.

Yu Wenjie was silent for a while, probably because the face of the person in front of him was smiling, rare and cute, and finally nodded: "Go early and return early."

"Yes." He Changan answered, and Chao Huachun winked, the latter understood and thanked him again and again.

Then the two quickly disappeared from the emperor together.

Yu Wenjie felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He always thought he was an amiable person, but I don’t know why, Hua Jinghua always looked scared to death in front of him, but in front of He Changan, it seemed normal. Relaxed, with a real smile in his eyes.

He thought for a long time and didn't understand the reason.

"Duke Qin."

"The minion is here."

The emperor turned his head, looked at him seriously and asked, "Are I serious?"

For a moment, Duke Qin looked down at the toe of the emperor's embroidered dragon's shoe in amazement, and didn't know how to answer for a while.

Why would your Majesty care about such a thing? He can't tell the truth, but the truth is really serious! I have never seen any happy expression on his face. That's not it. When he is okay, looking at others with a pair of eyes can scare the concubine of the court lady into an unstable position, thinking that he is angry.

He sighed slightly, and after having been with the emperor for so long, Duke Qin naturally knew him best. The emperor's appearance is serious, but his heart is actually quite soft, but others don't know it, so they are afraid of him and dare not get close.

No one dared to get close, the emperor was naturally more serious. Sometimes he, a slave, also feels distressed. Apart from Gong Yuhou, there are almost no confidants around the emperor. He grew up with a stern face and was quite lonely.

After brewing for a while, he thought of the best answer: "Your Majesty has the prestige that the Ninety-Five Supreme should have."

Yu Wenjie seemed to be dissatisfied with this answer, and Long Nian calmed his face. When he returned to the Zichen Palace, he was in a daze in front of the mirror.

The two brothers on the other end had already left the palace.

"Is it accustomed to living in the palace?" He Changan looked at the person next to him tenderly.

Thinking of the experience last night, Huachun wanted to say that she was not used to it at all, but she was even more curious: "That's good, why did the emperor let me live in the palace?"

"He is for your good." He Changan smiled softly: "You should also be grateful to the emperor's grace."

Good for her? Eyeballs rolled around, Huachun tentatively said: "Will anyone want to be against me?"

He Changan had come to remind her earlier, and now Yu Wenjie is not letting her go back to the house. The two should know a lot of things, but they didn't plan to tell her.

"You are a smart person." He Changan smiled: "It's a pity that you don't know martial arts. It's not very convenient to get in and out during this period of time. It's right to follow the emperor. You have to believe that even if your elder brother is not reliable, your second brother is also It's definitely for your own good, so don't worry about other things, just be your prime minister."

With such a profound expression, Huachun raised her eyebrows and nodded gently.

In their eyes, Hua Jinghua is probably a very straightforward scholar, full of justice, but vulnerable. Otherwise, she wouldn't treat her like protecting a panda.

It's a good thing to be protected. Hua Jinghua used to be very powerful, but now Huachun is really an idiot who knows nothing. If she meets an assassin or something, she can't climb the house beam alone.

Think about it or admit it, and be a son for someone else.

Taishi Tang's residence is still being checked. He Chang'an said that in fact, he didn't have much greed at all, only the money for the disaster relief this time, which cost several thousand taels of silver. Taishi Tang has been incorruptible for more than ten years, but he didn't expect to be unable to protect it at the end of the evening, and he regretted it.

Hua Chun said with a serious face: "Second brother has heard of the'circle theory'?"

This is nonsense. He Changan, an ancient person, where should he listen to this modern theory?

So she started to explain directly: "It's just people in a circle. Although they have different ideas at the beginning, they also want to hold on to their own hearts. But after being together for a long time, if one of them takes the lead, the whole circle of people thinks. Will follow him subconsciously to prove that they belong to this circle. In the end, everyone will be assimilated, brainwashed, and do things that they didn't think were right before. Because everyone around them is doing it, they won't feel anything. inappropriate."

He Changan was taken aback and looked at her: "I haven't heard of this, but it's true."

"I think that if he is not allowed to return to Beijing for life, he can still fight for it with the emperor." Huachun said: "It is still a bit pitiful to leave the country and be buried elsewhere."

Looking up at him, He Changan said: "You are reasonable, but you should not be too kind to an official. Doing things that are not part of your duties will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble."

"I know." Huachun nodded. She can't be kind to women, but she is also principled, being kind to those who can be kind. As for those who are not righteous, she won't waste sympathy and send them directly He left thousands of miles away and never returned!

When the car arrived at the gate of the jail, Taishi Tang and others were about to be taken to the prison car.

"Wait." Huachun jumped out of the car, walked to the jailer and showed her waist badge, and then smoothly pulled Taishi Tang to the side.

"The prime minister?" Taishi Tang was shocked. He didn't expect that he would come to see him. Tears suddenly appeared in his eyes. He knelt down and knocked her head: "The criminal minister can't help the prime minister!"

She is always kneeling at this age, and her life will be lost! Huachun quickly squatted down, holding something in his hand and putting it into his sleeve.

"I just passed by, thinking that I was an official in the same dynasty, so I came to see you off." She said, "The days will last, and I hope you can remember the emperor's Long En and enjoy your old age."

With her lips shaking, Taishi Elder Tang burst into tears, stood up with Huachun's hand, and looked at her deeply and said: "The prime minister's words, the guilty minister must be remembered in his heart. Thanks to the prime minister's grace today, I The descendants of the Tang family will surely end up with a grass ring in the future."

It's just to send it off. I didn't expect to be thanked so much. Student Hua Chun was still very emotional. Probably more than the icing on the cake, it is often more memorable to give charcoal in the snow. She didn't want to give anything back. It was not easy for the old man in this half of his life, and the property was copied. She just stuffed him a pack of silver, which is considered a travel expense. I hope he can find a place with good mountains and rivers to continue living.

He Changan watched not far away, watching the man awkwardly lift Taishi Tang up and speak sincerely.

He has always felt that it is not easy for a person to be able to climb to the position of prime minister. Even if the prime minister Hua Jinghua was tested by himself, he must have a certain city government and means to be able to sit firmly.

Today's incident was really unexpected to him, and he suddenly understood why the emperor insisted on keeping him in the palace.

Innocence is the deadliest in officialdom, but if someone is innocent and kind, probably no one can bear to let him taste the ugliness in the world.
