Male God Strategy System - Chapter 283
When Chen Jia came across to see Xia Houyu, she was afraid to kill him. She couldn’t believe that Xia Houyu would tell him to move in together. After all, he was scolded by him when he was a little closer to Xia Houyu.
Xia Houyu can say such words, which shows that he trusts Zhong Liqing very much. Although Chen Jia was happy, she subconsciously refused to say, “I’m afraid it’s inappropriate for the master and servant to sleep together. Besides, it wouldn’t be great if I could infect the third prince.” although Chen Jia was more casual in details, such as not kneeling, eating at the same table, being commensurate with her peers, she still paid great attention to the general direction, To show their respect for the prince.
However, Xia Houyu said, “if I ask you to move here, you can move here. Needless to say.” after that, she seemed impatient and went back to bed alone.
Chen Jia had to answer: “yes.” in fact, she was still happy and could be closer to Xia Houyu in the future. The only bad thing is that it’s inconvenient for him to stay up late at night to find a prescription, which will disturb Xia Houyu. It seems that he still has to finish things during the day in the future.
Xia Houyu listened for a while across the bed curtain. After hearing Zhong Liqing pour out the water in the bath bucket, she moved her things in and began to make the bed. The warm room was originally rebuilt from the side room. There was only one big bed. Chen Jia slept in the next bed. Although it was not as spacious as the big bed, it was enough to lie down and turn over.
The warm room was indeed much more comfortable than the cold room. Chen Jia got into the quilt, sighed comfortably and fell asleep.
The even breathing sound sounded in the room, and Xia Hou Yu also slept peacefully.
The next morning, the chicken crowed three times. Xia Houyu woke up first, lifted the bed curtain and looked. The people on the bed were still sleeping. It was about that the warm room was too hot. He kicked off the quilt and lay in a big shape on the bed. Xia Hou Yu couldn’t help laughing.
Xia Houyu had just watched for a while when Zhong Liqing woke up. He quickly put down the bed curtain.
Chen Jia stretched out and picked up the quilt that had fallen on the ground. I didn’t feel cold at all last night. I had a cold and didn’t sneeze again. He rubbed his nose, got up and folded the quilt. At this time, the curtain of the big bed was opened and Xia Houyu woke up.
The two looked at each other, and Chen Jia blurted out, “good morning.”
Xia Hou Yu was stunned and replied, “good morning.”
Chen Jia smiled, turned her head back, folded her quilt, put on her clothes, and heated hot water on the stove to wash. Xia Houyu still didn’t need to be served. She dressed and folded her quilt alone. She didn’t have the airs of the prince at all.
After washing and rinsing together, Chen Jia still went to study his prescription, and Xia Hou Yu carried a book. Qianyi hall is very slanted here. It has always been quiet, but at this time, they all heard some footsteps. The other party didn’t come to Qianyi hall, but passed by. But there were so many people passing by that they both became suspicious.
Chen Jia motioned Xia Houyu to stay in the room. She climbed up the wall to check, and then came back with a message.
“It’s said that the emperor will hold a grand ceremony to worship heaven, and the palace will be lively for a while,” Chen Jia said.
When Xia Houyu heard the news, she frowned and said, “do you know why we have to do this all of a sudden?”
Chen Jia replied: “I heard several palace maids discuss that the emperor planned to worship heaven and pray for blessings because of the snow disaster in the south. Is there anything wrong with this festival?”
Xia Houyu explained: “the process of the royal family’s heaven worship ceremony is cumbersome, and the articles of association are redundant. A set of heaven worship ceremony takes three months. It’s a big taboo to waste people and money if you are busy inside and outside the palace.”
“It should take three months?!” Chen Jiawen was also surprised. He thought it was just the emperor and empress who joined hands to burn incense and worship the heaven. How could it take three months?
“This is not the preparation time. Can you find out when the heaven sacrifice ceremony is going to be held?”
Chen Jia thought for a moment and said, “listen to the palace maids. It’s about after the new year.”
Xia Houyu frowned and said: “It’s difficult to celebrate the new year’s festival. After the new year’s festival, a great ceremony to worship the heaven will be held immediately, and the people in summer will suffer. According to the regulations of the Ministry of rites, the property needed for worship the heaven is like stars. The sacrificial rites and sacrificial utensils, not to mention the clothes of everyone present, should be made by a specially assigned person, and the cost is not from the taxes of the people. There is a state-owned sacrificial tax in summer, which is usually used to hold sacrifices In the year of tiandadian, the national tax will be increased by 10%
Chen Jiawen said angrily, “the South has been affected by the disaster. Instead of saving some money and spending money on disaster relief, it will hold a grand ceremony to worship heaven. It’s putting the cart before the horse!”
Xia Houyu murmured, “father, he was not like this before.” his eyes surged, as if thinking about something.
Chen Jia sighed and said, “although I didn’t catch up with the most prosperous time of the great Xia country when I was born, I also heard my father say that the first 20 years of your Majesty’s reign can be said to be hard work. How can it be like this now?”
“Maybe the throne has too much weight. It not only gives you unparalleled power in the world, but also makes you work hard for it. How can outsiders know the taste?”
Seeing Xia Houyu’s emotion, Chen Jia asked him, “did the third prince retreat from the throne?”
Xia Hou Yu replied, “of course not. The throne can change my father, but it won’t change me.”
Chen Jia smiled and said, “so, I Zhong Liqing swear to help the third prince ascend the throne and die forever!”
Xia Houyu should not, but looked at him. Zhong Liqing was only 18 years old, but she was always firm in her words and deeds. Xia Houyu did not doubt his sincerity, but just asked him: “Do you know that in the previous dynasty, countless people died in the power struggle for the throne over the years? Even if you are not afraid of death and give up this life, what can you do? The struggle for the throne is far from being able to support in an hour from the Marquis house.”
Chen Jiazhi looked back at him and said, “the third prince knows that this is the first time you have asked me in such detail about the plan of power struggle.”
Xia Hou Yu was stunned.
Chen Jia continued: “all along, we have been closed in the Qianyi hall. The third prince has devoted himself to recuperating, but he has never asked me how to ascend the throne. My understanding is that the third prince’s trust in me is just practicing medicine and saving lives.”
Xia Houyu reflected and said, “indeed.”
Chen Jia said, “let’s just open up today. If the third prince says he is not interested in the throne, I will leave immediately after I cure your illness. Your future life and death has nothing to do with me. I will find another way to avenge my father. During this period, I will be kind to the doctor who has the right to save the third prince.”
Xia Houyu said quietly, “if I say I’m sure of the throne?”
Chen Jia smiled happily and wantonly, and said firmly, “then I will fight the country empty handed for the third prince!”
Zhong Liqing said this with the characteristic frivolity of a teenager.
When a man was young, he always thought he could show his ambition to conquer the world. His arrogant words would cause friendly laughter in the ears of his elders. None of the ten thousand people could achieve this oath.
However, when Xia Houyu looked at Chen Jia at the moment, she did not know why she had a certain determination in her heart. He was sure that Zhong Liqing must be the one who could fulfill his promise, the one who could risk his life for him, and the one who beat rivers and mountains with empty hands and wantonly broke into the world.
He was sure that one day the rivers and mountains of summer would be reborn in his hands, and there must be Zhong Liqing in this river and mountain.
