The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor
Chapter 79: Step 3: Jealous of Evil Like Master Meng
Xiao Rui sat on the front seat, and then Wu Zhanfa led an eunuch from the inner court to come in.
The eunuch of the Inner Court Department entered the hall, and immediately knelt down respectfully to see: "The villain, Zhao Gaogao, the head of the Inner Court Department's palm seal, Xiao Mingzi, kowtows to His Highness King Xian."
"Huh?" Xiao Rui pretended to whisper, and asked, "Why didn't Zhao's palm print come?"
"My lord is busy with business, so I really don't have time to come here in person." Xiao Mingzi replied.
Instead of being angry, Xiao Rui smiled, and repeated: "Can't find time? Zhao's palm print is really busy. I heard that I can spare enough time to go to the homes of my two younger brothers, and I will be tired when I come here."
After a pause, Xiao Rui got up, and continued to ask: "Xiao Mingzi, the king asked you, Zhao Zhanyin sent you here, but came to tell me that the prince's mansion is ready?"
Xiao Mingzi was taken aback, maybe he was ready, didn't he tell you the day before yesterday? Today, I sent people to the Inner Court Department to ask Mr. Zhangyin, did I pretend to be stupid on purpose?
"Reporting to the lord, the funds of the Inner Court Department are really tight. It took all kinds of difficulties and dangers to prepare two sets of prince's mansions. For the sake of His Royal Highness, my lord must first give those two sets of mansions to His Highness Eighth and Ninth Highness. Your Highness." Xiao Mingzi immediately repeated what Zhao Gaogao had explained, and said: "If Your Highness is in a hurry, the Inner Court Division has already prepared a larger house, which is far bigger than the one that His Highness King Xian currently lives in. How about His Highness Move over now to stay temporarily?"
Xiao Rui asked back: "Then when will the Inner Court Secretary prepare the king's residence?"
"Well..." Xiao Mingzi looked at Xiao Rui's expression, and expected that he would not dare to get angry, after all, he is a down and out prince, how can there be a saying, a down and out phoenix is not as good as a chicken, a tiger in Pingyang is bullied by a dog, and so on! Let alone the last sentence.
Xiao Mingzi proudly said: "Reporting to His Highness King Xian, as for when it will be ready, it depends on how my Lord Zhao arranges it. It won't be too long, three to five months is not short, and three to five years is not too short." It's long. Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will definitely prepare a big and good Prince's residence for you."
Xiao Rui was furious, slapped the table, and shouted: "That's unreasonable! Did Zhao Gaogao bully me when I was young, and there was no one in the court? What did he do with my father's order? If outsiders know, it's fine to laugh at me. Where will my father's face be?"
Xiao Mingzi was stunned, his heart pounding, he felt that although he was showing off his power, if King Xian chopped him off, Master Zhang Yin would not vent his anger on him.
So the tone became more obedient: "His Royal Highness, please understand that it is not easy for the Inner Court Secretary, and Master Zhang Yin has no solution. Don't worry, the villain will report the situation to Master Zhao after returning, and prepare the mansion as soon as possible. Hand it over to Your Highness."
by the desk.
Watching all this quietly, Meng Fuzi couldn't bear the anger in his chest, and directly threw the wolf hair in his hand, hitting the eunuch Xiao Mingzi.
"Which is tolerable and which is unbearable! There is no such reason, no such reason!"
Meng Fuzi shouted: "His Royal Highness King Xian is the son of the Xia Emperor, and he has a noble status. Now he is opening the mansion, and he is also the title of Prince Hehe. He, Zhao Gaogao, a small internal court official, dares to despise the dignity of the royal family and humiliate the majestic Prince Daxia. Really! The crime is unforgivable! Who gave him the guts! Go away, you go to the old man!"
Meng Fuzi blew his beard and stared, because of anger, his old body was a little unsteady.
Xiao Rui immediately felt guilty. In order to deal with the Inner Court Secretary, he let such an elderly Meng Fuzi be the vanguard. How can his conscience be at ease?
"Master, pay attention to your body." Xiao Rui supported him, patted his back, and sorted out his depression.
This move made Master Meng appreciate Xiao Rui even more, and his jealous nature made him decide that he must take care of this matter today, not only to repay Xiao Rui's feelings for the article, but also to prevent the dignity of the Great Xia royal family from being trampled on.
Meng Fuzi glared at Xiao Mingzi, and shouted: "Go back and tell Zhao Gaogao, let him think clearly, who gave him his position! Get out!"
Xiao Mingzi didn't know Master Meng, but he also knew that an old man of this age was not something he could mess with, so he left immediately and fled.
Master Meng looked at Xiao Rui and said, "His Royal Highness Xian, no wonder when I first entered the mansion, when I talked about the prince's mansion, your face turned pale. It turns out that the inner court secretary has been making things difficult for you."
Xiao Rui sighed, and began to show his acting skills as the best actor, and said: "To be honest, the Inner Court Secretary sent someone to tell me that my mansion was not ready the day before yesterday. I thought it was the Inner Court Secretary who really wasn't ready." After all, the three princes opened the mansion at the same time, manpower, material and financial resources really need to be mobilized to a great extent, so today I sent someone to invite Zhao Gaogao, and I was going to ask about the situation again, who knows that this kind of thing will happen."
"Hey, it doesn't matter where I live, but if it's too shabby, I'll be ashamed. But if I lose the face of the royal family, how can I face my father?"
Speaking of this, Xiao Rui had a bitter expression on his face: "My mother and concubine died early, and there is no one in the harem. These days, I was punished by my father. Now that these things happen again, I am used to it, and my master laughed."
Immediately, Xiao Rui showed a forced smile and said, "Master, let's talk about poetry. After the students finish writing the "Humble Room Inscription", I will ask Master to comment."
"No hurry!" Master Meng raised his hand to stop Xiao Rui, and said solemnly: "Your Highness, you have just opened the mansion, and it is indeed not suitable to go to His Majesty, but I can, and Emperor Xia will still give me some thin noodles. Today's matter , since the old man sees it in his eyes, he can't sit idly by. The old man will enter the palace now!"
Xiao Rui was anxious immediately, and hurriedly said: "Master, you must not! You are a clean person in the world, and you have long been indifferent to the affairs of the court. Now that you have taken the liberty to enter the palace because of me, isn't the student breaking the rules of the master? It even caused other people hostility?"
But Master Meng said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, this time is small for you, and big for Emperor Xia. Of course, the old man's rules have the final say, who dares to point fingers? As for the hostility of some people, the old man is even more serious." I care. Your Majesty, the old man sends you a word. You are poor and strong, and you will not fall into the sky. You are a prince. Although there is no one in the harem and no one in the court, as long as you have enough ambition, the world can't help you with your sharpness , remember."
After all, Meng Fuzi left the mansion immediately.
Xiao Rui chased and stopped him, but he could only watch helplessly as Master Meng got into the carriage and walked towards the palace.
"Hey..." Xiao Rui sighed.
Jia Xu walked over and said with a smile: "Your Highness, feel guilty? Master Meng is upright, but we use tricks and tricks."
Xiao Rui also laughed, and replied: "It's just that it's morally unjustifiable to use such a benevolent old man."
Jia Xu said solemnly: "That's why Your Highness has to work hard to grow up as soon as possible to be worthy of Master Meng's help. I believe that in the future, Your Highness will meet more and more people like this."
"Yes, I will work hard!" Xiao Rui clenched his fists, full of fighting spirit.
