Chapter 599 Jiajing’s Sorrow

Night falls slowly, and the entire capital city seems to be in a splash-ink landscape painting, slowly faded by the color of ink. In the dark Linhuai Marquis Mansion, red lanterns were hung up one after another, and the maids and servants served the masters to rest in an orderly manner.

"In a few days, our ancestors will be able to eat more. I would like to thank my uncle on behalf of the entire Hou family." Zicuckoo said goodbye with great gratitude, taking the little loli Niuniu and the naughty child with her. Went back to the back house to rest.

"You guys should go down and have a rest, I don't need anyone to serve me."

After Zijuan and the others left, Zhu Ping'an asked Ting Yuxuan's two little girls to go down and have a rest too. Well, I don’t have the hobby of letting my maid warm my bed.

I lit the oil lamp and placed the books brought back from the Hanlin Academy on the table one by one. I slowly began to study them. While reading, I excerpted some sentences and listed them in categories on a piece of rice paper.

The night is getting darker, and the entire Linhuai Marquis Mansion has fallen asleep. Only Zhu Ping'an's room is still lit, and the occasional sound of turning the pages of a book is somewhat clear in this silent night.

In the middle of the night, the little girl Ting Yuxuan woke up to take a nap and found that the light was still on in her uncle's room. If she hadn't seen the shadow of her uncle flipping through the book through the window, the little girl would have stayed there. I thought my uncle forgot to turn off the lights when he went to bed

When I woke up and Xiaoxie came back, my uncle was still reading. The two little girls returned to the penthouse, lying on the bed and looking at the stars and lights in the master bedroom opposite, in a daze.

Why did my uncle go to bed so late again? It seems that I haven’t seen my uncle go to bed earlier. I really don’t understand. My uncle is already the number one scholar, the eldest master of the Hanlin Academy, and the son-in-law of the Hou family. They are all so good. Okay, why are you still working so hard?

"If I were your uncle." A little girl murmured.

"What do you want?" Another little girl came over and asked.

"I just eat whatever is delicious and fun every day, so I don't stay up late reading so stupidly." The little girl stuck out her tongue.

"That's why you are not my uncle." The other little girl rolled her eyes.

The two little girls whispered a few words and then fell asleep again. The light in the master bedroom outside the window was still on

In fact, at this time, Zhu Ping'an was not the only one who was awake. Many people in Xiyuan, which was far away from the Hou Mansion, were still awake.

Deep in the Xiyuan Palace, Emperor Jiajing, the king of a country, was still awake.

Emperor Jiajing, who usually wore a blue Bagua Taoist robe, today was wearing a plain white Bagua Taoist robe.

At this time, Emperor Jiajing, who was wearing a plain white Bagua Taoist robe, looked slightly pale, his eyebrows were deeply knitted together, and his eyes were staring at a small golden ball in front of the Erlong Xizhu Bagua Dan furnace not far away. The coffin reveals a touch of grief.

On the tables in front of Emperor Jiajing, there was a table of vegetarian dishes. Each dish was carefully cooked by the imperial kitchen. Even though it was vegetarian, the whole hall was filled with fragrance. Anyone who smells it will move their index finger.

But at this moment, this table of delicious vegetarian dishes was placed on the table completely. It had been reheated three times, and it was obvious that not a single chopstick had been touched.

"Long live Lord, I beg you, please have some food. Even if you don't think about the dragon body, you still have to think about the country, the country, and the people of the world. Long live Lord. It's noon today. Since then, you haven’t had a bite, nothing After one sip of Long Live Lord, even if his body is made of iron, he can't bear it." Huang Jin knelt in front of Emperor Jiajing and persuaded him with a cry, his eyes were red and swollen, and his eyes were full of concern. There was a worried look on his face.

"Withdraw, I have no appetite." Emperor Jiajing sighed and waved his hand.

"Long live my Lord, just have a meal. If you don't eat or drink like this, General Huwei will not be able to survive." Huang Jin knelt on the ground and pointed to the exquisite gold coffin under the alchemy furnace. advised.

The golden coffin was open, and inside lay a yellow and white striped cat with bright and plump fur. Unfortunately, it was lifeless and lifeless.

"My mighty General." When Emperor Jiajing heard this, his expression became even more serious, and his voice was hoarse as if he had been awake for days and nights.

Huang Jin tried his best, but failed to persuade Emperor Jiajing to eat.

Hey, General Huwei went just as he said. Huang Jin let out a long sigh in his heart. Huang Jin often served Emperor Jiajing and knew that his master was a cat lover, and this cat named General Huwei was the most favored cat.

This cat is very spiritual. When his master goes out, this cat always leads the way. Whether it is to go to the concubine or to fast, this cat can always lead the way. The reason why it is the most favored is that it is not only loyal but also accompanies its master in refining elixirs. Whenever his master is refining elixirs, this cat always lies beside the alchemy furnace, guarding the alchemy furnace like a white tiger.

Oddly enough, alchemy can be successful when the cat is guarding the alchemy furnace.

The tiger is so majestic that it is not close to punish evil!

That’s why he was named General Huwei by his master.

General Huwei has a very good relationship with his master, and they are very favored. It is common for them to eat, live and sleep together. The palace feeds General Huwei ten dogs every day. Chicken, five fish, and portions of a sheep. Choose the freshest part of the chicken. Beautiful chicken livers and hearts, only fish brains and fish roe are taken from fish, and only heart meat is taken from sheep.

In the palace, General Huwei is pampered and favored, just like the prince, and to say the forbidden words, he is rich Wang and King Jing were not as favored as General Huwei.

Now that General Huwei is gone, how can his master not be sad?

However, seeing Emperor Jiajing so sad, Huang Jin was worried because Emperor Jiajing had not eaten for two meals. It was late at night and he had not even eaten lunch. If this continues, how will the body be able to bear it?

If His Majesty's body collapsed, Huang Jin broke into a cold sweat just thinking about it.

What to do?

Suddenly, Huang Jin glanced at a stack of Qing Ci placed on the table. Yes, how could he forget these Qing Ci? These are all poems to commemorate General Huwei. If any of these poems are done well, comforting His Majesty and untying His Majesty's heart knot, wouldn't the matter be solved? !

Thinking of this, Huang Jin felt hot in his heart.

Whether His Majesty can eat or not depends on these words. I hope you will not disappoint me, gentlemen.

"Long live Lord, General Huwei passed away today. The slaves and Lord Yan are all heartbroken. Lord Yan and others have also presented their Qingci. General Huwei practiced with Lord Long live before his death. "You are most loyal. I will be laid to rest tomorrow. I would like to ask your majesty to choose a green poem so that the servants can see off General Huwei." Huang Jin presented the green poem and said in mourning.

"Yes, I almost forgot." Emperor Jiajing took a deep breath and nodded after hearing this, took the Qingci, and cheered up. (End of this chapter)
