Chen Ying paused his hand holding the chopsticks, looked up at Li Jiancheng, put away his laughing expression, and said with a serious expression: "Dalang, you are not the prince now, you are the emperor, you must look like an emperor... What's more, the Turkic problem should be solved. You can't let me participate in the Northern Expedition under the name of Shangshu Zuo Pushe?"

...

The Shangshu Province is already empty.

Fang Xuanling was still under the candlelight, concentrating on sorting out documents and memorials.

Gao Shilian held a candlelight and walked to Fang Xuanling to sit down. Seeing that Fang Xuanling was still busy, he put down the candlestick and helped Fang Xuanling sort the documents.

After a long time, Gao Shilian sighed and said, "Xuanling, now several major events have fallen into the ground. It is time for you to resign from this position as the hot position of the Secretary of the Shangshu Right Chief."

Fang Xuanling glanced at Gao Shilian and smiled while continuing the work on his hands, "Why?"

Gao Shilian said earnestly: "I am for your own good. I have written a letter and resigned from the Minister of Personnel. Over the past year, Wei Zheng, you and me have offended all the aristocratic families, civil and military officials, and relatives of the Li family. Now that things are done, it is time for us to retreat..."

Fang Xuanling said dissatisfiedly: "Why? We work hard and make great contributions, why should we retreat bravely?"

Gao Shilian choked for a moment and said helplessly: "When did you start to care about your credit?"

Fang Xuanling chuckled and said, "Just now."

Gao Shilian was furious and was stunned for a while before saying, "This is to avoid disaster! Even if we refuse to retreat, in order to protect us, the emperor will leave us out of the prefectures and counties for a while. However, he is finally a meritorious minister. He doesn't have to go to the poor border to suffer this time. He can most likely be the governor of Henan or even Guanzhong, and then return to the capital to worship the prime minister."

Gao Shilian said that he was full of energy and yearning for him.

Fang Xuanling smiled disapprovingly, shook his head and said, "You are thinking well, I'm afraid that Your Majesty will not think so!

Gao Shilian said in surprise: "What else can your Majesty make?"

...

Late at night, Li Jiancheng lay on the bed with great worries.

Zheng Guanyin rolled over carefully with her big belly. Seeing Li Jiancheng in a daze, she poked Li Jiancheng.

Li Jiancheng turned his face and looked at Zheng Guanyin and said, "What's wrong?"

Zheng Guanyin frowned with some displeasure and said, "What? I should ask you this, so what's wrong with you? Don't sleep?"

Li Jiancheng said with some guilt: "Have I disturbed you?"

Zheng Guanyin stood up with great difficulty, and Li Jiancheng quickly supported her and leaned against her and sat in his arms.

Zheng Guanyin yawned and said, "I know I'm very noisy, so I'll talk about it if I have something to do."

Li Jiancheng smiled helplessly and sighed: "Chen Ying resigned, Gao Shilian also resigned. It seems that they have already agreed..."

Zheng Guanyin lit her head and said, "What about you?"

Li Jiancheng said excitedly: "I am naturally very unhappy with this so-called imperial mindset!"

Zheng Guanyin closed her eyes halfway and said sleepyly: "Although the harem cannot interfere in politics, I don't care about others. Chen Ying's affairs are both state affairs and family affairs..."

Li Jiancheng rubbed his temples worriedly and said, "Chen Ying is young, where can he retreat?"

Zheng Guanyin yawned again and said, "It doesn't matter. You can either magnify the governor or the governor outside. Don't be too far from Chang'an, or... it's not bad to be demoted to the governor of Shangzhou."

Li Jiancheng helped Zheng Guanyin pull the quilt and said angrily: "You are quite good at making arrangements."

Zheng Guanyin lazily raised the corners of her mouth and smiled, "Chen Ying is just too young, otherwise, she can give him a free job with a second-grade special promotion and raise it..."

Li Jiancheng frowned in dissatisfaction and said, "What are you saying?"

Zheng Guanyin smiled and glanced at Li Jiancheng's ugly face, and said with a smile: "It's a pity that it is a preferential treatment for the old minister. Chen Ying was young and became the right servant of the second grade. Even if he retreated, he would never be able to be promoted to the second grade again..."

Zheng Guanyin's voice became smaller and smaller, and she fell asleep again in a daze.

Li Jiancheng remained silent, looked at Zheng Guanyin's smiling sleeping face, and carefully hugged her and lay down.

...

Chenjiabao, Chen Ying lay calmly on the bed, falling asleep soundly.

Suddenly, a dry retardation sound came from outside.

Chen Ying woke up in a daze, opened his eyes and found that Li Xiuning was vomiting in front of the spittoon.

Chen Ying stood up quickly, put on a piece of clothing, gently came behind Li Xiuning, reached out to stroke Li Xiuning's back, and asked with concern: "Sanniang, what's wrong, this is... I've eaten my stomach, should I ask the imperial doctor to come and have a look..."

Li Xiuning reached out and twisted at the soft flesh on Chen Ying's waist.

Chen Ying was in pain and looked at Li Xiuning innocently and asked, "What are you doing if you pinch me?"

Li Xiuning's eyes were like a pool of deep water. He looked at Chen Ying and said angrily: "Isn't you blamed you!"

"Blame me?" Chen Ying suddenly realized and said with joy: "Sanniang, why... I have it again!"

Li Xiuning nodded.

Chen Ying looked happy, and while supporting Li Xiuning, he carefully supported Li Xiuning to bed.

The two lay side by side on the bed.

Li Xiuning suddenly twisted her body with difficulty and looked at Chen Ying and said, "Chen Lang, why did you resign from the position of prime minister? Shangshu Zuo Pushe, no one is more suitable than you!"

Chen Ying sighed and said, "Feng Lun is dead, Pei Ji died on a hunger strike, Chen Shuda and Xiao Shiwen dismissed from office, Wude is in charge of the six prime ministers, and now he is six times gone, and more than 3,000 officials of the Guanzhong clan have been dismissed, and His Majesty has also settled his position..."

Li Xiuning interrupted Chen Ying and said, "Are you worried that you will be too successful?"

Chen Ying shook his head and said, "No... Your Majesty is broad-minded. He can tolerate old generals such as Fang Xuanling, Duan Zhixuan, Qin Qiong, Niu Junda, and other Qin Wangfu, and can also pardon Li Yuanji's crime of rebellion. No matter what I do... wealth and honor are indispensable for a lifetime!"

Li Xiuning said in even more confusion at this time: "Then you..."

Chen Ying smiled and said, "The Eastern Turks are constantly moving. I am really worried. After the imperial court completed the internal purgation, it began to concentrate its efforts to deal with the Turks!"

Li Xiuning was silent.

She grabbed Chen Ying's hand tightly and said, "Chen Lang, can you accompany me..."

Li Xiuning couldn't continue to say that she couldn't be so selfish.
