Almighty Dad - Chapter 150

In the past few days, the officials in the capital are quite miserable, because the emperor will come to the court every day to praise the Chen family’s good deeds, repeating the Chen family’s kindness, benevolence and righteousness. The Chen family, they are not good people. Of course, those who can be officials are not fools. It is self-evident what the emperor means, but no one took the lead in raising money for charity.

The emperor’s face became more and more stinky day by day, several officials had already been scolded by him, and two low-ranking officials were even beaten. In the end, after the prince donated 60,000 taels of silver privately, and King Yong Kang also donated 50,000 taels of silver, the officials had to grit their teeth and pay for the money.

In this way, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver were raised in just a few days, and with the gold from the Chen family, the relief money was settled, and it was more than enough.

The officials had no choice but to pay for their money and lost their money. The emperor dared not offend them, but the Chen family became the target of public criticism. Whoever let the Chen family leader show off his prestige was the first to donate money, they had nowhere to vent their anger, and could only vent their anger on the Chen family. .

Officials who had been on good terms with Master Chen in the past, saw that he had lost enthusiasm, and even mocked him face to face. The Chen family is the most “family of benevolence and righteousness” in the world.

But I don’t blame the officials for the blame, they also donated money, only the Chen family was rewarded by the emperor’s decree, and they all became the foil, and the chief culprit of their bankruptcy was the Chen family. If they didn’t blame the Chen family, they would be saints.

Facing the sneering words from everyone, the head of the Chen family was also very helpless. This gold was really not something he was willing to donate.

But no matter whether the emperor used their Chen family as a raft, or everyone’s sarcasm, the head of the Chen family recognized it, as long as his son was released, but he carried out fifty thousand taels of gold back and forth, but it didn’t help at all. Squatting in the prison, facing the eyes of his wife Qi Yi, he was afraid to go home, so who would he turn to for reasoning? It’s hard to say.

The money for disaster relief was settled, and Emperor Mingzheng was in a good mood. He went to Kunning Palace and said with a smile, “Ru’er, the two sons you gave birth to me are what I want. If it wasn’t for Aze’s mistake this time, the prince’s reaction Be alert, this disaster relief money is not so easy to deal with, those officials, hmph!”

Everyone is selfish.

The emperor praised her son, and the queen was of course happy, and said with a smile: “Yongwang Kangwang is also a good boy, this time they each donated 50,000 taels of silver. Let me reward them with some rewards, lest they have no money to send, at least they will be princes once.”

Emperor Mingzheng snorted: “How could they have no money? As soon as they saw the crown prince donating 60,000 taels of silver, Concubine Li took 50,000 taels of silver and gave it to King Kang in private. I gave it to them, but they didn’t pay a single penny themselves. Hmph, I’m reluctant to ask them to pay each one. It seems that in their eyes, my words are not as good as King Yongkang…

The queen is funny, the emperor is still angry that the officials didn’t take the initiative to pay for the relief money a few days ago.

Emperor Mingzheng said again: “That is to say, the private houses in the hands of the crown prince and Aze are all from us. I know how much money they have. Don’t worry if Aze has gold from the Chen family. The crown prince will subsidize him. Don’t worry.” Appropriate your private room.”

The queen stood up and saluted, and said with a smile: “Thank you, Your Majesty, for thinking about my concubine.”

Emperor Mingzheng helped her to sit down: “We are husband and wife, so there is no need to be so polite.”

The queen sat down with a smile, and said: “The second son of the Chen family has been in prison for half a decade. Although he offended Ah Ze, he has indirectly helped the emperor. After all, he didn’t make any serious mistakes. Why don’t you just let him go?” Bar.”

Emperor Mingzheng didn’t intend to keep Chen Junxiong locked up. He was busy with disaster relief these days, so he didn’t have time to pay attention to that kid, and the court officials hated the Chen family almost to death, and no one interceded for that kid. Forgot, looked at Hu Deyang behind and said: “Hit him twenty boards and throw him out.”

“Hey!”

The corners of Hu Deyang’s mouth twitched slightly. He knew how much the emperor didn’t like Chen Junxiong. He would help you with the money for disaster relief. You have been locked up for half a decade, and you still want to beat him twenty times, but as long as the master is happy , he is happy as a slave, then Chen Junxiong deserves to be beaten for provoking Chunwang.

The queen didn’t intercede, she hated Chen Junxiong more than the emperor, beat him twenty boards, taught him a lesson, let him know that the capital city is not his family’s, and he can’t say anything.

On the ninth day of August, Emperor Mingzheng’s birthday is not a full life, and the natural disaster has just passed, so he does not presuppose extravagance. The empress held a banquet in the Kunning Palace, and all the concubines in the harem, as well as the descendants and grandchildren of Emperor Mingzheng were present.

The queen raised her wine glass, looked at Emperor Ming Zheng, and said sincerely, “I wish the emperor a healthy dragon and a prosperous country!”

“It’s the queen who knows what’s on my mind!”

The dragon body is healthy and the country is prosperous!

The queen’s blessings really touched Emperor Mingzheng’s heart. He looked at the queen with satisfaction, and he picked up the wine glass in a good mood and drank it in one gulp.

The harmony between the emperor and empress stung the eyes of the concubines below. With the empress present, even though these concubines were young and beautiful, the emperor could not see them.

Concubine Li squeezed her fingers tightly and said with a smile: “Your Majesty, my concubines couldn’t find any precious things, so they wrote the Buddhist scriptures themselves and worshiped them in front of the Buddha for ninety-nine and eighty-one days. I just hope that everything will go well for the Emperor.”

“Concubine Li has a heart.” Emperor Mingzheng said with a smile, “Hurry up.”

With a bright smile on her face, Concubine Li personally presented the Buddhist scriptures to Emperor Mingzheng.

Emperor Mingzheng looked at it twice, and praised: “Concubine Li’s handwriting is getting better and better.”

Concubine Li smiled triumphantly, “It’s not in vain for me to be praised by the emperor, and I have been working hard to practice calligraphy since I was a child.”

Emperor Mingzheng gave her a playful look, the smile in his eyes narrowed, and he closed the Buddhist scriptures and put them on the table.

Han Ze keenly saw the coldness in Emperor Mingzheng’s eyes, raised his eyebrows, and asked loudly, “Father, can the Buddhist scriptures really protect you in everything?”

Concubine Li returned to her position, and when she heard Han Ze’s words, the sudden sharpness in her eyes was concealed by her lowered pupils.

As soon as Han Ze opened his mouth, King Yong’s heart tightened. What did King Chun want to do?

Emperor Mingzheng smiled meaningfully, looked at Han Ze and asked, “Why do you ask such a question?”

He doesn’t know whether the Buddhist scriptures can bless him in everything, but he knows that Concubine Li gives him Buddhist scriptures every year. Since she gives him Buddhist scriptures every year, that’s what Li Fei thinks in her heart, at least she wants to let him Think so.

Han Ze frowned: “There was a flood in the village that year, and all the crops in the fields were flooded. Everyone in the village went to burn incense and pray to Buddha, and prayed for the blessing of Buddha, but it was still useless. The crops were still dead. During the autumn harvest, nothing was received. Grandma said The Buddha is very busy, there are so many sentient beings in the world, he doesn’t have so much time to care about all the things.”

The emperor laughed loudly, “Your grandma is right. Even the Buddha cannot ask all living beings in the world.”

The smile on Concubine Li’s face could no longer be maintained, she said: “Your Majesty, sincerity leads to spirit, I sincerely beg Buddha to bless His Majesty every day, one day he will be moved by me, and he will bless His Majesty.”

The corners of Emperor Mingzheng’s mouth curled up. Even if everything goes well, it may not be the blessing of the Buddha. For so many years, he was able to be the master of the world. This world was brought down by himself and his subordinates bit by bit, not by the blessing of the Buddha. of.

Han Ze opened his eyes wide: “How much sincerity can I impress the Buddha?”

The emperor looked at her, and his smile deepened: “Since Concubine Li is so caring, write Buddhist scriptures silently in front of the Buddha every day from now on, maybe the Buddha will see your intentions.”

Writing Buddhist scriptures silently in front of the Buddha every day? Concubine Li’s face was so ugly that she was about to cry. She hated Han Ze to death. In her opinion, giving Buddhist scriptures was the safest gift. It was not outstanding and would not make people jealous. In previous years, they also gave Buddhist scriptures, and the emperor was not dissatisfied. , This year, a pure king was born. He really can be found everywhere.

Han Ze said: “Then if the father doesn’t go well, doesn’t it mean that he is not sincere?”

King Yong’s face changed drastically, “Sir, don’t talk nonsense!”

Concubine Li’s face sank like water, and she looked at Emperor Mingzheng with tears in her eyes: “The emperor clearly sees that my concubine is not sincere.”

Han Ze tilted his head: “Oh, it’s no wonder people always say I’m stupid. After thinking about it for a long time, I still don’t understand. If everything goes well, then is it the reason why Li Concubine and Mother pray to Buddha every day? Ying Ming, can you do whatever you want?”

Concubine Li’s face turned pale suddenly, cold sweat dripped from King Yong’s forehead.

Han Ze’s words didn’t stop: “If it’s the reason for Concubine Li’s mother to pray for Buddha, doesn’t it mean that the father is not wise and does not do things well? If the father is the emperor, God blesses him, why does Li Concubine Ask Buddha?”

Concubine Li squeezed the handkerchief, and said hurriedly: “The emperor is the son of heaven, God will bless him, it has nothing to do with worshiping Buddha and copying Buddhist scriptures.”

Even if she was killed, she would not dare to admit that the emperor was not wise.

Han Ze asked strangely: “Since father and emperor are blessed by heaven and are wise, so the world obeys, why does concubine Li still give him Buddhist scriptures?”

Li Fei gritted her teeth: “…”

The queen glared at Han Ze: “Have a good meal, what are you talking about?”

The emperor laughed loudly: “Okay, what Aze said is the truth, of course Concubine Li also has a kind heart, although this kindness may be useless, Aze, don’t be curious.”

In one sentence, Li Fei’s sending of Buddhist scriptures was considered useless.

Concubine Li’s face was ugly, but she couldn’t say anything, she couldn’t compete with a fool.

Everyone else gloated a little, sitting aside and watching the joke.

King Yong glanced at Han Ze gloomyly, waiting to see.

Han Ze looked at him blankly, why are you staring at me?

King Yong glared at him again, sooner or later he will deal with you.

Han Ze also stared at him, and then looked at the emperor unhappily: “Father, King Yong stared at me!”

King Yong: “…”

Go to hell, fool! It’s so big, but also sue!

Emperor Mingzheng looked at King Yong, and saw that his face was spewing fire. For some reason, he felt a little sympathetic. He didn’t want to offend anyone, so he went to provoke Aze. He said, “Prince Yong, why are you staring at King Chun?”

King Yong explained with an ugly face: “Father, King Chun is wrong.”

Han Ze snorted, “I’m not mistaken!”

King Yong: “…”

Emperor Mingzheng laughed: “In this case, you should apologize to King Chun! It’s not a big deal, you are brothers and you must live in harmony.”

King Yong secretly gritted his teeth: “Yes, father!”

The author has something to say: Han Ze: Please call me a complaint, thank you!
