Chapter 108: First strike

A little hand grabbed her sleeve and tugged, "Give it back to me!"
Chao Xi looked back and found that it was a child carved from pink jade, looking at her with a pair of watery eyes.
Is he wearing a dragon robe?
Chao Xi was shocked, and the instinctively let go, the cricket became empty, and he jumped away, and disappeared for a few times.
"Why did you let it go again?" The little emperor was anxious. "Get me back quickly, otherwise I will punish you."
He commanded in a soft voice, with a scent of milk on his body, and he looked so unstoppable. Although it was a threat, it sounded like a child playing temper.
Of course, Chao Xi didn't dare to relax. After all, it was the emperor of Dashun who had offended him. He didn't need to do it himself. Naturally, someone would do things for him.
Chao Xi nodded, "The emperor can rest assured that the cricket can't run away."
It was freezing cold and the cricket could only live in a warm place. It just went straight to King Jingzhong because King Jingzhong tied two hot water capsules on his body, one after the other, with a hot blush and a thick neck, and the cricket Feeling warm, want to get close to him to get warm.
Surprised by Chao Xi, King Jing Zhong didn't dare to come again, and temporarily ran to other places, because of fear, he lost his voice and stopped screaming. It was more difficult to find its trace quietly.
But this is not difficult for Chao Xi.
She is a doctor. She needs bait to catch poison. Many poisons eat small things like crickets and fat insects. Chao Xi often catches some, and uses its cry to attract poison, and then catch turtles in the urn.
With this kind of cricket, she can catch a small plate in one night, especially when the weather is getting colder.
"The emperor, please let someone move to the stove." Chao Xi clasped his fists in both hands without kneeling.
She is from the rivers and lakes, she does not kneel to her parents, nor to the court, and no one wants her to kneel.
"Bold, why didn't you kneel when I saw the emperor?" The emperor was anxious, but the did not catch up with him. When he caught up with him, the was talking with Chao Xi again.
Chao Xi turned around and found that everyone was kneeling on the ground, seven or eighty-eight, all directions were inconsistent. The little emperor was running and walking in a straight line. Wherever he went, he knelt down and headed in his direction. .
He is a living, moving fast. When he catches the crickets, he runs a little bit. Whenever he walks around, everyone kneels down.
Chao Xi didn't realize it at first, because King Jingzhong didn't kneel. He was the grandfather of the little emperor. He was of a big generation and it was unrealistic to kneel the little emperor.
Chao Xi didn't understand the rules and followed him, so she didn't kneel.
She looked up and found that Shen Fei did not kneel either. Shen Fei was the master of the little emperor and the regent. It is normal not to kneel.
If he didn't kneel, Chao Xi didn't want to kneel either. She skipped the big and looked at the little emperor, "If I can find the cricket for your majesty, can I prevent me from kneeling?"
The little emperor is young and should be better fooled than the eunuch.
The little emperor tilted his head and asked puzzledly, "Everyone is kneeling, why don't you kneel?"
Chao Xi smiled slightly, "Because I can find crickets for your majesty."
Speaking of the cricket, the little emperor immediately became happy, "If you can find the cricket, I will save you from kneeling."
The quickly persuaded in a low voice, "No, the emperor, there has never been such a rule..."
The little emperor pulled his face down, "I am the rule!"
He was quite rude to his own people, and when he turned his head to face others, he returned to his original appearance like a spring breeze, "Go and catch the cricket!"
After all, crickets are important.
The little emperor is only seven years old, and national events are far from real for him.
Chao Xi took the order, and the big hurriedly asked someone to move to the stove. As soon as the stove came up, the hall instantly warmed.
The little emperor stood beside her and asked, "What do you do with the stove?"
Chao Xi put his hands in his sleeves, "What will your Majesty do if you are afraid of the cold?"
The little emperor thought about it seriously, "I will let people move to the stove and cook."
He was not stupid and immediately understood, "The cricket is also afraid of the cold, and wants to heat up the fire."
Chao Xi praised him unceremoniously, "Your Majesty is so smart."
The little emperor was praised, his mouth was crooked and he smiled so hard that he could not see the teeth.
After a while, it seemed that something was wrong, and the courtesy said, "You are also very smart."
Chao Xi had a slight surprise.
The little emperor is the son of the queen dowager. He stays with the queen mother all year round. Chao Xi originally thought that she would be taught bad by the jealous queen dowager, but she didn't expect it to be a good talker.
From the beginning of his first sentence, "You caught my cricket", Chao Xi had a feeling that the little emperor was so clever, he was not trivial, and it was a real bet. You don’t need to kneel when you see the emperor. Yu didn't have to kneel when he saw others.
Even the emperor does not kneel, and if he kneels other people, doesn't it mean that he is older than the emperor? Is this a rebellion or something?
Could it be the king's soil in the whole world, the emperor is the biggest, this is recognized, whoever thinks that he is bigger than the emperor is rebellious and unfaithful.
Chao Xi looked at the little emperor seriously, and suddenly thought that the queen mother was indeed the emperor’s biological mother, but the emperor’s master was the regent. He became the present humble and generous appearance, and Shen Fei had part of his credit?
It's been a while since the stove was moved up, it should be fine.
Chao Xi walked to the side of the stove and circled around. Sure enough, he saw a cricket lying on the ground cautiously, a little farther away from the stove. The stove was too hot to burn himself, so he just stayed nearby.
As soon as the temperature came up, its legs and feet numb a lot, Chao Xi didn't catch it at the first pounce, and only buckled the cricket in his palm at the second.
Taking it out lightly, the little emperor had already raised the bamboo tube containing the crickets and let her put it inside.
As soon as the cricket entered the jar, the little emperor hurriedly covered it with a lid, with some surprise on his face, "I'm back."
When he entered the hall, he kept hearing the cricket screaming, worried that it would be uncomfortable. When the lid was opened, the cricket flew out and couldn’t chase it back. He was terrified and thought he would never see it again. Can actually be caught back.
"I want to reward you." This cricket is very important to him. It was the emperor's uncle who rewarded him after reading the whole set of "National History".
He is the emperor, unlike the children next to him, who bears heavy responsibilities. The emperor said that he must combine work and rest. Only through hard work can he get what he wants.
He had inadvertently heard the next to him say that when he was a child, he played with crickets and made grasshoppers, so he asked the emperor for one, because it was not easy to get, so he cherished it.
"Please take back the emperor." Chao Xi made a bow, "I have already dared to ask for a reward just now, so I dare not ask for it again."
The little emperor waved his hand, "One yard goes to one yard."
Not having to bow down is not a reward for him, it's just a sentence.
"Laifu." He looked at the big behind him, "a hundred taels of silver."
Wow! The little emperor is so generous, one shot is a hundred taels of silver, but...
"The emperor, it's just a matter of effort, and I feel ashamed." If the little emperor really saved her from kneeling because she caught a cricket, and rewarded her with a hundred taels of silver, it would make others think that he was plaything and only cares about the cricket. The Dashun imperial prestige is completely ignored.
This is very bad for him.
Chao Xi currently has a very good impression of the little emperor, and he does not want him to be affected by this.
"The emperor." Shen Fei stood up, "Since the little brother insists, the emperor just let him go."
The emperor seemed to have a good relationship with Shen Fei. He listened to him very much and nodded, "I listen to the emperor."
Only then did the matter of rewarding silver be over, the little emperor took a few steps to sit in the highest position, and said, "All the love is flat."
The people who had been kneeling for a long time breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor tried to catch the crickets and left them behind. If it weren't for the regent's reminder, he might have to kneel for a while.
The persuasion of the regent was actually to remind the emperor that business matters, and nothing else is important.
After winning the battle, what everyone looked forward to most was all kinds of rewards. They were all anxiously waiting for the canonization. This was the business.
The little emperor didn't let them down either, and soon he was brought to the imperial edict and read by the eunuch.
From top to bottom, almost everyone who has done the work can read the name. Even General Li was named the General of Zhen Guo, but Shen Fei did not even appear.
This imperial decree was not drafted by the little emperor, nor was it the queen mother. If it were the little emperor and the queen mother, even if they were reluctant, they would still give Shen Fei a reward, but he didn't even have his name, which was obviously abnormal.
Maybe it was Shen Fei who wrote it himself. He didn’t write well and rewarded himself is one thing. Second, he is already the regent, the master of the emperor, the tiger charm is also in his hand, and the right is firmly in his hand. , What reward does he want? What else can the key give him?
Xu really couldn't find it. The little emperor said directly, "The emperor has done the most in this battle. What does the emperor want?"
Shen Fei said, "We don't want any ministers, just hope that the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe, the emperor will ask for governance, diligence and learning, both civil and military, and leisurely advance and retreat."
Every word is inseparable from the word ‘learn’. The implication is that he is back and it is time for the emperor to do his homework!
The little emperor seemed to hear the overtones, and glanced at the emperor resentfully. If he didn't want anything, he had to do some homework for him.
Uncle Prince is undoubtedly.
It’s strange to say that the Queen Mother is opposed to Shen Fei. It stands to reason that the little emperor should have not kissed Shen Fei, but it is very natural for Chao Xi to see that they talk or make eye contact. The little emperor is so small, it makes no sense to hide So deep, it shows that their relationship is really good.
I don't know how Shen Fei did it?
Chao Xi observed that the two of Shu Ji were faintly happy and happy. Although it was a celebration for everyone, the ministers did not dare to intervene. They were both talking.
King Jingzhong occasionally interjected, but he didn't say much. He was enduring the hot water bag on his waist and back during the whole process. It was too hot and hurt his teeth from time to time.
Someone hurriedly converged and sat upright. Compared to him, Chao Xi felt that Shen Fei was more like a master, and King Jing Zhong was more like an apprentice, unable to sit still and restless.
On the contrary, it was Shen Fei, who spoke Dao at first, taught people to be organized, and looked completely different from King Jingzhong.
The emperor was taught very well by him. He asked humbly about everything. If he had any questions, he asked Shen Fei. If the queen dowager learns about this way of getting along, would he be furious?
My son is so good with my enemy, everything depends on the enemy.
In fact, it just happened that the queen poisoned the little emperor. No matter how stupid the little emperor was, he knew that the queen was the one who the queen mother asked him to teach him. The queen poisoned him, it must have something to do with the queen dowager. Own uncle.
Regardless of previous complaints, he cut the flesh and bleeds until he is pulled back from the ghost gate.
Although some people always say it's a bitter trick, the queen mother often whispers in his ears, but saving is saving. The child is not that complicated. Only remember that in the dead of night, he was burnt and confused. When he reached out, he caught the emperor's uncle. hand.
It was the emperor who stayed by his side all night and left after making sure that he was okay. He heard that the emperor’s health was not good at all. He fainted several times in order to make him a medicinal inducer. It was fake, Yuan?鶞��Four negatives, sorrows and curtains └　 suitable for a hurried step ソナ legs blows, reads, negatives, br/>
Tiger poison still doesn't eat children, and the queen mother actually made fun of his life in order to deal with the emperor's uncle.
That's fine, and I still talked ill of the emperor in front of him all day long. On the other hand, the emperor has always asked him to obey his mother and have time to be soft with his mother. There is no son who hates his mother.
Such a comparison makes the mother and queen more narrow.
Halfway through the celebration banquet, Shen Fei suddenly clapped his hands and told the dancers to retreat, "The emperor, the minister went to the frontier, and there was an unexpected gain."
The little emperor came to be interested, "What's the harvest?"
"Weichen handed over a beautiful painting."
The little emperor became more and more curious, "Don't sell the emperor, let people pass it on."
Shen Fei knew it, and made a look at the person beside him, who immediately took out the painting he had brought this morning.
The painting was unfolded, and it turned out to be a masterpiece. The painter was very good at painting, and the painting was superb, and he also wrote a good handwriting, and inscribed it next to it.
"Eleven Shrimp"

The crowd in front of them counted them carefully. As expected, there were really only ten shrimps, which did not match the title.
Shen Fei shook his head, "The emperor, take a closer look, it is eleven shrimps."
These are obviously ten shrimps. He has to open his eyes and talk nonsense. There are eleven shrimps. However, horrified by his authority, everyone dare not tell the truth and only pleases.
"Perhaps the shrimp will be unspeakable."
"Since the title is "Eleven Shrimp", it naturally makes sense."
"A beautiful painting of a peerless world is worthy of being a beautiful painting of a peerless world. The officials are ashamed and cannot realize the artistic conception in it."
Everyone babbles, you say, I say, most of the people say that, it makes Yuan 垈瘥e畹阋 faint 　 Send the royal family appointment number 　　 play br/>
But I looked closely and checked around. There were indeed ten shrimps. Except for "Eleven Shrimp", there were no words beside it. Why is this painting called "Eleven Shrimp"?
"Uncle Emperor, did the painter make a mistake?"
People are not gods, and there is indeed the possibility of making mistakes, or playing mystery, trying to catch the eye. However, this painting was sent by Shen Fei. He said eleven, but few people dared to say ten.
At a time, only the little emperor had ten human beings. Chao Xi also looked at the painting. Her eyes were good. Although she was far away, she still saw clearly, there were ten.
The footsteps moved, just about to speak for the little emperor, there was a sudden pain in the waist, King Jing Zhong gave her a hand, "Don't interfere."
Chao Xi was puzzled and asked in a low voice, "Why?"
King Jingzhong looked solemn, "Can't you tell? There is a conspiracy in it."
Shen Fei is not a person who sits and waits for death. The Queen Mother has not yet attacked him. Instead, he has to attack the Queen Mother first.
Take offense as defense, a good method.
