The emperor is a little unable to sit still!
He was worried that tomorrow, Zhao Chen led a group of officials from Dali Temple to his Ganquan Palace to force the palace.
Let him, the emperor, give money to the officials for their salary!
If he can't get the money out then, wouldn't the scene be awkward?
After thinking about it, the emperor still felt that it was inappropriate.
He has to say hello to Zhao Chen in advance, so that Zhao Chen will not come to him with a large number of people tomorrow.
Where will his emperor's face be put then?
The emperor left the palace and did not take any of them. Instead, a team of street patrols sent him outside the Zhao Mansion.
The gate of Zhao Mansion was not closed.
The concierge Lao Huang was not in Chang'an, and Li Ruoshuang and his daughter were in Li Jing's mansion, and the Zhao's mansion seemed particularly quiet.
Walking into Zhao's mansion, the emperor looked carefully at the stones on the ground.
I was afraid of making a big noise.
He didn't know why he came in like a thief.
When he walked to the backyard of Zhao's mansion, the emperor stood outside Zhao Chen's room, hesitant and dared not knock on the door.
I'll meet Zhao Chen later, what do I want to say to him?
Tell him not to bring people to him for salary tomorrow?
What if Zhao Chen doesn’t agree?
Do you have to kneel down and beg him?
This doesn't work!
Moreover, the emperor felt that there was a high possibility that Zhao Chen would not agree.
Didn’t Zhao Chen keep remembering about Wu Xi?
This kid has been thinking of a way to take revenge on him, the emperor.
Thinking of this, the emperor stretched out his hand that was about to knock on the door and suddenly shrank back.
He took a few steps back and wanted to return to the palace, but stopped again.
Gripping his teeth, he reached out to knock on the door.
"Ouch--"
As soon as the emperor's hand approached the door, he saw that the door suddenly opened.
A stick slashed straight at his head.
The emperor had no time to shout, and then he felt nothing.
...
Zhao Chen was very upset.
He was sleeping last night when he suddenly heard something outside.
So I pulled out a bamboo pole for a curtain.
Unexpectedly, I was a slap to the thief outside.
The thief was knocked out by him.
But Zhao Chen did not expect that this thief was the emperor's crazy.
Zhao Chen was extremely suspicious of whether the emperor had sleepwalking.
Otherwise, why would you come here in the middle of the night?
Even if he doesn't have sleepwalking, there must be some mental problems.
I didn't sleep in the middle of the night, so I came here to find a sock?
When the emperor woke up, it was already the next morning.
The emperor felt his forehead hurt.
A gentle touch with your hands makes it hurt.
After touching it, there was obviously a raised mark.
Good guy, I was directly drawn out yesterday!
"Brother Zhao!" the emperor shouted angrily.
He has to ask Zhao Chen for an explanation.
As an emperor, is there any reason for being beaten like this?
Zhao Chen walked over, holding a medicine bag in his hand. Seeing a line on the emperor's forehead, he stared at him with his eyes, and couldn't help but thrust the corners of his mouth.
"woke up?"
"Come on, apply the medicine bag yourself." Zhao Chen handed the medicine bag in his hand to the emperor.
The emperor took the medicine bag and pressed it on his forehead. The piercing pain made him grin and grin.
It took a while before the emperor recovered.
"Little bastard, how dare you use a stick to slap me!" The emperor glared at Zhao Chen and said angrily.
"You ran up to my mansion in the middle of the night and stood at the door of my room and sneaked in. I haven't caused trouble for you yet."
"It's a good thing you called in time, otherwise you would have to go and keep your soul today." Zhao Chen said casually.
But the emperor was so angry that his heart trembled. He felt that his forehead had finally been relieved, and there was another huge pain at this moment.
"Your injury will heal in a few days, but you can't be too excited, otherwise it will take a few days." Zhao Chen and the emperor said.
The emperor now had a tense face and said nothing.
If he knew that he would knock Zhao Chen out with a stick when he came here in the middle of the night, even if Zhao Chen forced the palace to be in trouble today, he would not have come.
How can he meet people in the future?
"You can leave after you have enough rest. I have to go to the Dali Temple yamen!" Zhao Chen rushed the emperor to leave.
I asked Dai Zhou to wait at Dali Temple yesterday, and it's time to set off!
"Go to Dali Temple?"
"Why are you going to Dali Temple?" The emperor was very alert. He was worried that he would be forced to the palace by Zhao Chen and a group of Dali Temple officials later.
"Dao Zhou, the young minister of Dali Temple, came to the Ministry of Revenue yesterday and asked me to pay their Dali Temple officials' salary for two months."
"But the Ministry of Revenue has no money, so I have to think of a way."
"Or what, your Majesty, you come and pay for this money?" Zhao Chen explained, his eyes moving on the emperor again.
The emperor only felt his head hurt even more.
Where did he get the money to pay the salaries of officials in Dali Temple?
"Brother Zhao, are you trying to make me like this? Still thinking about asking me to pay?"
"You have found a way to solve the salary of Dali Temple officials."
"I won't pursue you after what happened last night!"
The emperor thought he was a smart guy.
Although he was hit by a blow, Zhao Chen might have brought the officials of Dali Temple to force the palace, but wasn’t it solved?
This stick seems to be worth it!
Zhao Chen had no intention of asking the emperor for money.
If you ask the emperor for money, it would be better to go directly to be a beggar on the street to beg for food. Maybe you can get all the money in advance than to be with the emperor.
"I didn't plan to find you." Zhao Chen said casually, which made the emperor suddenly feel a little stomachache.
He suspected that his stick was in vain.
"You go to Dali Temple now, what are you going to do?" The emperor got up from the bed and asked Zhao Chen.
"Do you want to be together?" Zhao Chen asked with a smile, his eyes deliberately falling on the emperor's head.
How could the emperor not know that Zhao Chen was deliberately stimulating himself?
But what are these stimuli?
There will be a court meeting tomorrow. As a diligent emperor, he will never miss every court meeting.
If you are embarrassed to go out today, wouldn’t it be even more embarrassing to come tomorrow?
"Go, why don't you go? I want to see what tricks you are playing," the emperor said humming.
Covered his head and went out.
...
Officials from Dali Temple were waiting at the Dali Temple yamen early in the morning.
They didn't get their salary yesterday, and many people didn't dare to go back at all.
But the sun was already rising, but there was still no trace of Zhao Chen.
"Dai Shaoqing, Zhao Shangshu, are you not here?" asked an official from Dali Temple.
"Yes, when is this time?"
"Even if you climb, you should have climbed."
Some officials have begun to be dissatisfied.
Dai Zhou also frowned.
At this time, the Ministry of Revenue had already been on duty, and Zhao Chen shouldn't have not appeared yet.
But Dai Zhou had no other choice at this moment.
He could only continue to wait for Zhao Chen's arrival here.
"Dai Shaoqing, you said something."
"Yes, did Zhao Chen really agree to you here?"
"If our salary cannot be resolved today, we will go to His Majesty."
"Yes, go find Your Majesty!"
"Look for your Majesty and get our salary back."
"We worked hard for the court, but we couldn't even get the salary we deserve?"
Chapter completed!
