Jade Without Fragrance Chapter 125

   Chapter 125 Opening

   Concubine Jing's words made Emperor Tai'an think about choosing the crown prince, but he didn't say much. He left Ningxin Palace and returned to the Warm Pavilion, thinking about the right family in his heart.

  The brazier of the Nuan Pavilion was burning vigorously, and the aroma of the gilded double-dragon incense burner was a little intoxicating. Emperor Tai'an rubbed his eyebrows and instructed the **** Liu Chuan: "Mr. Chuan Wang is here."

   Liu Chuan replied respectfully, and soon sent someone to invite Mingxin Zhenren.

   After a while, Mingxin Zhenren came along with the inner servant, and when he saw Liu Chuan, he nodded politely: "Eunuch Liu."

   "Mr. Wang, please come in quickly, the emperor has been waiting for you for a while." Liu Chuan smiled, but he was uneasy.

  This old king would be left in the palace, he expected it, after all, he knew the long-lost technique of golden needles to relieve pain. But he never expected that Lao Wang won the emperor's favor with his unique massage technique.

   These days, as long as the emperor feels his head is heavy, he will ask Lao Wang for a massage, and he can't leave it.

   This made Liu Chuan vigilant.

   Could this old guy steal his place in the emperor's heart?

   Mingxin Zhenren walked in and saluted the Tai'an Emperor.

   "Mr. Wang, come and press my head for me."

   Immediately, a palace servant brought water basins, soft towels, etc., and waited on Mingxin to clean his hands, and then handed over a hand stove to warm his hands.

   was very familiar with this set of procedures, so he went around behind Emperor Tai'an and squeezed his forehead for him.

   Tai'an Emperor quickly stretched his expression.

   Liu Chuan glanced at it, then glanced at it again, the more he looked, the more confused he became.

   It seems that he can learn it at a glance. Why did he try to massage the emperor that time, and the emperor told him to get out?

  Liu Chuan lowered his eyes, and decided that he would not be bothered if he didn't see it, and stopped learning.

   After a while like this, Emperor Tai'an only felt his mind was much refreshed, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief: "Thanks to Mr. Wang, my old problem with headaches is much better."

The throne that    grabbed was not so easy to sit on, and those years were the most rampant time for Qi people, internal and external troubles, and over time there was a headache. Although it's not serious, it's annoying to do it from time to time. I didn't expect Mr. Wang to have such a skill.

   "Mr. Wang, how is the restoration of the Crown Prince's hand?"

   When Emperor Tai'an asked this question, the other palace staff retreated, only Liu Chuan and two highly skilled inner guards were present.

   Unlike the hesitation and hesitation when asking the imperial doctor's condition, Mingxin Zhenren calmly said: "It seems that it is not very smooth."

   Tai'an Emperor's face was a little ugly.

   At present, Baiguan has not found that the prince's left hand is different. If he finds it, he will discuss it.

  Although the inconvenience of the left hand has little effect, it is a defect after all.

   "Mr. Wang is so talented, is there no solution?"

   "Your Majesty is overrated. Caomin only understands some clever tricks, but he has no superb medical skills. His Royal Highness's left hand still needs to be slowly recuperated by the imperial doctor's arrangement. This is not urgent."

   Emperor Tai'an sighed in disappointment: "Prince won't let me worry, Qi people have become more and more petty recently, and there are often rumors of harassment at the border, which also worries me."

   When it comes to state affairs, Mingxin Zhenren did not answer.

   A burst of hurried footsteps came, Liu Chuan walked over to take the urgent report and presented it to Emperor Tai'an.

   Emperor Tai'an opened it and looked at it, then threw the report on the desk, his face ashen with anger: "How unreasonable!"

   "Your Majesty calm down, don't let your anger hurt your body." Liu Chuan advised.

"How can I calm my anger?" Emperor Tai'an pointed to the report, "The people of Qi are too arrogant, they looted the property of a village on the border, and even took dozens of women. Liu Chuan, you immediately told the six ministers to enter the palace. discussion."

   Liu Chuan led the way, and Emperor Tai'an walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, before he remembered that Mingxin Zhenren was still there.

   "Mr. Wang laughed."

  Mingxin real person bowed his head and folded his hands: "The emperor's words broke the grass people."

   "Mr. Wang has been to the north?"

  Ren Mingxin shook his head: "Caomin has never been there."

   "Then Mr. Wang has never seen the brutality of the Qi people. After a few fights in the early years, the Qi people are more honest, and they are thinking about the big week again in the past two years."

   "Caomin doesn't know much about this. I just remember that there were a lot of casualties in those few wars in the early years." Mingxin Zhenren said so, in fact, he appreciated Tai'an's daring to fight against the Qi people back then.

  When there is no way to go back, the reparation of land will only bring more greed. Only bloodshed can defend the country and the people. Unfortunately, the monarch does not understand.

   Mingxin Zhenren was loyal to Emperor Pingle, but did not agree with Emperor Pingle's practice of retreating and seeking peace.

   Hearing this, Emperor Tai'an's eyes were heavy, and his expression was helpless and angry: "Without casualties, how can there be stability in these years."

   He remembered the difficulty of insisting on fighting back then, and then he thought that there would be many peacemakers and few fighters, and the headache that had just been relieved came again.

   "Mr. Wang press me again."

  Ren Mingxin quietly pressed and pinched for Emperor Tai'an, and his mood became complicated.

  The ministers came one after another, and Emperor Tai'an asked Mingxin Zhenren to retire. The discussion between the monarch and the minister came to the beginning of the Hua Deng, and during the period, it was passed that Mingxin Zhenren came to massage the head, and the lights in the warm pavilion remained almost all night.

  The movement of the imperial court is not known to many people, and the capital is still shrouded in the festive New Year.

  On the ninth day of the first lunar month, a humble restaurant opened.

   The restaurant is quite spacious, there are no private rooms, there are square tables and benches in the hall, and the tables and chairs are only 70% new.

  Lin Hao looked at the person who brought her in a mixed mood: "Sir, is it difficult for us to open a store with funds?"

   Had known this, she would have given two hundred taels.

Qi Shuo was wearing a cyan cotton robe of ordinary material today, looked at Lin Hao who was dressed as a teenager, and smiled slightly: "With the second lady Lin partnering, it is not difficult to fund, but the diners in this restaurant are mainly ordinary people. Older chairs give them peace of mind."

  Lin listened well and couldn't help nodding: "It's still the prince who thought it through."

With the crackling of firecrackers, many people stopped, and a shop assistant with a white scarf on his shoulders shouted loudly: "A bowl of mutton bone soup and two big buns only cost three cents, come and taste when you pass by. L"

  A bowl of soup and two buns cost three yuan, neither expensive nor cheap. People were curious to watch the fun, and no one was the first to try it.

The shop assistant was not discouraged, and shouted louder: "Lamb bone soup has clear soup and spicy soup. The clear soup tastes delicious. Drink a bowl of spicy soup with steamed buns, and the body can be warmed all day long, and two petals will be given away. Pickled sour garlic…”

   Many people swallowed their saliva subconsciously after listening to the description of the shop assistant.

   sounds delicious, why don't you try it?

   A few people walked in immediately, swept away the simple (shabby) environment in the lobby, and felt relieved.

  Look at it like this, it doesn't look like he will kill customers.

   "Here comes a bowl of spicy mutton bone soup, and two buns." The first person to speak was a strong man, who did not forget to instruct, "Don't forget to pickle garlic."

   The shop assistant said "Okay" and quickly brought the food over.
