Chapter 807 The country is too heavy
The emperor smiled at Jia Cong and was very doting. He turned his face to the eunuchs, but his face turned gloomy, which made the eunuchs in the hall frightened and fought in a row. He ran out to pass the meal as if he was busy.
The emperor turned around but looked kind and looked at the face of his eyes. He stretched out his hand to touch Jia Cong's big sweater and asked, "Is this the one I gave you? When I saw him that day, I thought you would look good on it. Now it seems that this is true, and only you can deserve this piece of fire fox fur."
When Jia Cong heard the emperor say this, he couldn't help but feel flattered. He didn't know what to say at the moment, so he had to smile and ask the emperor, "Your Majesty, these clothes are very expensive, right?"
After hearing this, the emperor smiled and said, "There is only one in the world. Do you think it is expensive or not? Fire foxes are rare, and it is even rarer to have no hair on their bodies like this. Moreover, Fire foxes are extremely alert by nature. They can catch them and peel them to make clothes when they see them. I am afraid they will be rare in hundreds of years."
Jia Cong was immediately panicked when he heard this and said, "Since it's so precious, the emperor, please take it back. After hearing what you said, I really don't dare to wear it again..."
When the emperor heard this, he laughed and said, "How could I take back the things I gave? Have you never heard of the one-word Jiuding? Besides, I have suffered too much loss to you back then. Now God has mercy on me and told me to meet you again. Not to mention it is a piece of clothing, it is what I plan to give you in this world..."
Jia Cong was shocked when he heard this, and his knees softened and he knelt on the ground and shouted, "Emperor... The Emperor... Father... You are my real father... If you really treat me as your biological son... Don't mention this matter again in the future... You can't even have this idea... Don't cheat me... I want to be free for the rest of your life... Your country is too heavy... I can't afford it..."
Seeing Jia Cong like this, the emperor was so happy that he laughed. He hurriedly pulled him up and comforted him, "I'm just an example, are you so scared?"
Jia Cong hurriedly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, you really scared people to death early in the morning. Don't scare me again in the future, otherwise I will have to leave and never see you again..."
The emperor was already suspicious and looked at everyone as if they were thieves who wanted to steal his country. At this moment, Jia Cong's face changed drastically by his words, so his suspicion disappeared and he loved him even more.
At this time, the sun had already burst out, and thousands of sunlight pierced into the Qinzheng Hall, illuminating the hall with golden lights everywhere.
The eunuchs acted quickly, but they had already rushed in with their food, and they were kneeling on the ground waiting for the emperor to issue an order.
The emperor's face was full of joy at this moment? His wrinkled cheeks were shining with the bright sun, and his face turned much better out of thin air.
He turned around and saw a group of eunuchs kneeling on the ground. He said lightly: "Just put the food on the table? You can go back? You don't need to serve Cong'er here."
When the eunuchs heard this, they felt like they had a general amnesty. They quickly arranged the meal quietly, and then they quietly retreated.
People in the world say that the palace is extremely cruel and extravagant? I don’t know how many livestock you have to eat for a meal? But who can’t believe that the emperor’s breakfast is just a small bowl of thick porridge, and a few fresh side dishes.
Just like today, there are only two bowls of millet porridge on the table in Qinzheng Hall, and a plate of cold fresh lotus root. A plate of smoked deer legs and a few green leafy vegetables scalded with boiled water.
Not to mention a wealthy family like the Jia family, even a wealthy family with a slightly better family may think it is too simple.
However, the emperor and Jia Cong ate sweetly.
There are many royal rules? Pay attention to eating silently and eating without saying anything.
Therefore, the two of them had eaten quietly in the past two days, and they could not even hear the sound of chopsticks touching the bowls and plates? Not to mention the sound of chewing and swallowing.
For a moment, the eunuch came and removed the dishes and brought fragrant tea to wash his hands and mouth. After the two of them washed their hands and rinsed their mouths, the eunuchs then brought fragrant tea to eat.
At this time, the sun was already level with the eaves of the Qinzheng Hall, and the whole hall was filled with golden light, and the charcoal basin had not been removed yet? A new fragrance was added? The little eunuch had already opened the windows and circulated the air in a thin gap according to the emperor's habits.
The Qinzheng Hall is warm and fragrant at this moment, and the air is refreshing and pleasant.
It was not until this time that Jia Cong woke up. He looked at the emperor who was still tired, took a sip of tea, and then asked: "Master, have you reviewed memorials all night last night?"
Seeing that he was very tired, the blood in his eyes was still not retreating. He rubbed his temples with one hand, and frowned and sighed with his eyes closed, "Yes, now that the New Year is coming, there are many things everywhere. In the north, it is snowing heavily this year, many houses have been crushed, many cattle and sheep have been frozen to death, and even people have been frozen to death... I asked the treasury to approve the money for disaster relief, and asked people to buy grain and build houses to comfort the victims. This is nothing, but the treasury is still sufficient now. I have recovered a lot of money in the past two years, but this is not the one that makes people feel the most troublesome..."
Jia Cong asked casually as soon as he heard this: "What else is there for the emperor who has more headaches..."
As soon as you ask this sentence, Jia Cong felt that it was inappropriate. He was not a pillar of the court, nor was he a prince and general. Why did he worry about this?
He was secretly regretting that he shouldn't have spoken too much, but the emperor replied casually: "The first thing that makes people headache is that the border is chaotic again..."
Jia Cong was shocked when he heard this. Since the emperor ascended the throne, he had thought of many good ways, and opened a trade zone to allow foreign races on the frontier to trade freely, and even to marry, he spent a lot of money to raise the army and stabilize the border defense, and rewarded many gold and silver women of the leaders of foreign races on the frontier. After many years of hardness and softness, the frontier has always been stable. What is the chaos?
The emperor didn't know whether it was because he had not slept all night or because of a headache at the border. He rubbed his temples on both sides and continued, "It was a tribe in the remote northeast. At first, it was just ten thousand wanderers, and we never took it to heart. Who knew that this tribe has developed rapidly over the years, but in just over ten years it has become hundreds of thousands of people. It's really no mistake to have this large population. These savages are so brave that they actually made up our minds and wanted us to enfeoff land and reward food. The days ago were even more ridiculous. They actually wanted me to betroth a princess, hahaha, it's really funny..."
The emperor didn't know whether he really thought it was funny or hated that this tribe was ungrateful. This ridicule sounded extremely dry and made people's ears make people feel frightened.
