853 The day before opening

By the time Xiaocui finished speaking, Concubine You had transformed into a beaded and jade-like figure, just like when she came.

"very good!"

Concubine You looked calm and praised, a glint of expectation flashed deep in her eyes, and then she put on a coat with Xiao Cui's service.

The other side.

After sending Zhu Xiuyuan away from the palace gate in Jiawu, he immediately returned to the inner treasury superintendent's office and came to that room.

At this time, Concubine You had already dressed neatly again and put on a coat, all the buttons were buttoned, and her neck was not exposed.

Compared with just now, Concubine You seemed conservative at this time.

Standing next to her was Xiao Cui, her personal maid.

After the ceremony, as soon as Jiawu stood up, Concubine You's cold voice came from the front: "Eunuch Jia, it is in vain that I put so much trust in you..."

thump!

Big beads of sweat suddenly appeared on Jiawu's forehead, and he knelt down again...

A quarter of an hour later.

Squeak.

The door opens.

Concubine You was domineering, walking with steady steps, noble and inviolable, and slowly walked out with the support of the maid Xiaocui, and came outside.

"Mom, walk slowly!"

Inside the house, Jiawu people kept kowtowing and kneeling.

The sweat from his forehead actually wet his collar. As a result of kowtow, his forehead was also torn and bleeding profusely.

Soon, Concubine You's majestic and inviolable back disappeared, and she had walked away.

Only then did the kowtows end in Jiawu.

Jiawu just collapsed on the floor, not caring about the blood flowing all over his face.

"Master Marquis...it is really a fairy-like enjoyment...His Majesty's concubine dares to get involved...Hey, my handle fell into the hands of the empress. This life is ruined. From now on, I just want to complete the errands assigned by the empress..."

Jiawu murmured to himself.

Suddenly, he tightened his brows, remembering the instructions given by the Concubine just now, and said to himself: "The Marquis and Concubine are hooking up together. This is such a secret. If it is spread out, I am afraid that my life will be at risk..."



Another day has passed.

There are still no clues about the imminent rebellion in the five southeastern states.

Undercurrent surges.

But the thing that people in Beijing are hotly discussing is the news that Wuyi Plaza is about to open.

It is said that Wuyi Square is not only huge in size, but also warm in winter and cool in summer. It’s amazing!

This adds a touch of mystery to Wuyi Square.

It also ignited the curiosity and gossip of the people in Beijing.

In addition, Wuyi Square is the property of Shenleihou Mansion, which makes it even more topical.

In short, in just a few days, Wuyi Square has become completely popular!



In the blink of an eye, time came to the day before the opening of Wuyi Plaza.

Outside the walls of Wuyi Square, there is already a sea of ​​people. Some people are shocked by the hugeness of the whole building, which is rare in the world. Others are curious about its function of "warm in winter and cool in summer", which is simply incredible.

The people did not discuss it.

And can't wait.

The upcoming opening of Wuyi Plaza has completely become a hot topic.

But there are all kinds of people in the world, and there are always some who won’t follow the crowd.

For example, the Prime Minister Li Zhong.

Although Li Zhong heard about this, he just said "hmm" and ignored it. The entire Prime Minister's Mansion remained as usual, which was in sharp contrast to the hustle and bustle outside the mansion.

The other hundred official residences, such as the six ministers, the officials in each temple and prison, and the military attachés stationed inside and outside the capital, etc., were not as calm as Li Zhong.

Although they themselves did not move, the servants in the mansion had already found out all the news about Wuyi Square.

In the East Palace, His Royal Highness the Prince also heard about this and had the idea of ​​leaving the palace to celebrate.

But he was afraid that his mother-in-law would not agree, so he fell into a dilemma.

In the Jinling Palace, the re-energized King Jinling, after hearing about this incident, immediately made an idea. Not only did he want to defeat Zhu Xiuyuan in the court, he also wanted to completely crush Wuyi Square in the business affairs!

King Jinling is very confident now.

So he came up with the idea of ​​"going to the scene to observe in person" in order to "steal the lesson!"

Then, he will build a better and bigger one that will completely crush Wuyi Square!

When the five southeastern states raise their troops and attack the capital to capture the God of Thunder, his square will completely crush Wuyi Square!

At that time, he will crush the God of Thunder in all directions and completely wash away all the humiliations he has suffered before!

But now that King Jinling is confined to his residence, how can he go out to visit Wuyi Square?

His brother King Kuaiji gave him an idea...

The news that Wuyi Plaza was about to open swept across the entire capital like a tidal wave. Emperor Chen and Concubine You in the palace naturally also heard about it.

Qin'an Palace Study Room.

Emperor Chen and Concubine You were reading the memorial at their desks.

Suddenly, a eunuch reported quietly outside: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine, the King of Jinling has sent someone to send you the recently copied Analects, a total of one hundred volumes, for your Majesty's review."

"oh?"

Chen Huang raised his head and moved his eyes from a memorial to the door. He looked confused and seemed not to have heard clearly.

"Did your Majesty forget that a few months ago at Zhu Aiqing's residence, Your Majesty fined King Jinling to be grounded for one year and to copy the Analects of Confucius a thousand times?" Concubine You promptly reminded him.

"Hey, I forgot!" Emperor Chen put down the memorial in his hand and said suddenly: "Why do I say that I have been so clean recently? It turns out that the traitor was punished and grounded at home. Haha, if my beloved concubine didn't remind me, I almost forgot.

Got this."

"Your Majesty is busy with many things, so of course he cannot remember these small things..."

"Well, it's really hard for my dear concubine. She accompanies me to deal with government affairs every day, and she also has to remember these trivial matters for me."

"I am extremely honored to be able to share your Majesty's worries!"

"Hahaha... Oh, by the way, since the copy of "The Analects of Confucius" has been sent, please pass it in and let me take a look." Chen Huang looked at the door and ordered.

Soon, two eunuchs came in carrying a large plate of books and placed them respectfully on Emperor Chen's Dragon Case.

Chen Huang casually picked up the top volume and began to read through it...

The two eunuchs stood below with their hands down.

Concubine You looked at Emperor Chen's face.

In the entire study room there was only the faint sound of Chen Huang flipping through books.

"Well, it's not bad. The handwriting is neat. I can see that he put his heart into it!" Chen Huang put down this book, picked up another one and flipped through two pages before saying.

"Your Majesty, the prince has been confined in the house for a month. Apart from copying books every day, the prince is also thinking about his future - what he can do and what he can be obsessed with." The eunuch said.

"What is his plan?" Chen Huang was slightly curious.

Concubine You next to her pricked up her ears.

"Your Majesty, after much thought, the prince has found that devoting himself to the business of merchants would be an excellent choice!" said the eunuch.

"What happened to merchants?" Chen Huang was surprised.

Concubine You's eyes lit up and she said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I think it would be good for the King of Jinling to devote himself to the business of merchants. In this way, he will have something serious to do, so he will not make your Majesty unhappy!"
