Chapter 518

Zhu Youjian can't sleep well all day for the sake of government. He can only sleep two or three hours a day. After waking up, he gets up to read memorials.

Compared with his royal brother who likes to be a carpenter, Zhu Youjian is conscientious.

Just after correcting a batch of memorials, Zhu Youjian followed eunuch Chengen to the Royal Sutra pavilion to prepare for reading.

Now eunuch Chengen has worked hard and been happy. Since Wei Zhongxian was killed, he took over the position of eunuch printing and helped the emperor take care of the jade seal.

But Chengen knew that he must not come like Wei Zhongxian. He must be loyal to the emperor.

Zhu Youjian walked into the Sutra Pavilion.

As usual, he was reading all kinds of ancient books. He was an emperor who liked reading, because he knew that only in this way could he understand the truth of governing the country.

There are many books in the Royal Sutra pavilion that can't be bought on the market, so Zhu Youjian can learn a lot here.

While Zhu Youjian was reading, he and Chengen suddenly heard a little noise.

"Who? Who's there!"

Looking down at the sound, I found a little maid in waiting looking at them in panic.

"What's your name and why did you run to the Sutra pavilion?" Chengen asked angrily.

"Slave, my maidservant's name is Shi Xiaorui. She used to be a disciple of Xiufeng square in Nanzhou. Later, she was arranged in the palace by father-in-law Zhang Deshun. She said it would be of great use in the future... But..."

"But what?"

"But then there was a rebellion. Father-in-law Zhang Deshun and father-in-law Wei Zhongxian were killed. Slaves and maidservants didn't dare to run, so they had to stay in the palace."

It turned out that Shi Xiaorui was a forgotten chess piece.

According to Zhang Deshun and Wei Zhongxian's plan, it may have been to use her to cooperate in the palace.

But their business has failed, so Shi Xiaorui died before he could use it.

Shi Xiaorui, who was left behind, didn't dare to run away at will. She was afraid of being executed as a rebellious prisoner, so she hid in this sutra Pavilion.

"Well, she doesn't look like a bad person. Let her out of the palace."

"Thank you, your majesty!"

Shi Xiaorui quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

She was finally pardoned. Of course, she was happy. She also wanted to run out and reunite with shadow puppet Zhang. At that time, they would fly away and never involve these messy things again.

However, the idea may be very beautiful. I don't know whether I can do it or not.

Just as Shi Xiaorui was about to leave, Cheng en suddenly shouted, "why is there a dark space here?"

"This... This dark grid is where father-in-law Wei asked me to hide."

Then Chengen went to the dark room.

He and Zhu Youjian were surprised because they were not familiar with the imperial palace. Of course, they didn't know that there was such a dark space in the Sutra Pavilion before.

When he came to the dark grid, Chengen pushed hard, the dust was flying everywhere, and many spider webs were destroyed.

"Inside, there is a door! Your majesty, look!"

After the dark grid was pushed open, there was indeed a door inside, which made Cheng en and Zhu Youjian feel a little curious.

I've never heard anyone mention it before, so what's in this door?

There is a groove in front of the door. It looks strange in all directions.

"Chengen, this groove is strange. Bring me my jade seal."

"Yes."

After a while, Chengen took the seal and saw that Zhu Youjian inserted the seal into the groove and it fit perfectly.

Twist the faucet of the jade seal, and the door behind the dark grid sounded a squeaking sound.

Boom——

With a sound, the door was opened.

It turned out that it was the secret room of the Sutra Pavilion.

Looking at so much dust and cobwebs in the secret room, we know that no one has been here for many years.

Since only the jade seal can open it, I'm afraid the last person who came to this secret room was his royal brother.

"Are all the books in the secret room?" Zhu Youjian asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, it's too dirty here. Why don't the old slave send someone to clean it... Alas! It hurts!"

Zhu Youjian walked into the secret room, but eunuch Chengen was blocked by a force.

This is a little strange.

Can't you go into this chamber without royal blood?

But it's no wonder Zhu Youjian has so many books. He just wants to see what those old books are.

When Zhu Youjian flipped through a few books, he widened his eyes.

"How... How could..."

"Your Majesty, how are you?" eunuch Chengen asked anxiously. He was afraid that there was something wrong with Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youjian shook his head and indicated that he was fine.

However, he doesn't feel all right. He always feels that there is something wrong.

"Your Majesty, are you really all right?"

This time, Zhu Youjian didn't answer, but focused on reading the book.

Later, Zhu Youjian read books in the secret room of the Sutra Pavilion for three days. He forgot to eat and sleep. He looked like a scholar studying hard in a cold window.

He didn't even bother to deal with all kinds of memorials of the imperial court. He just wanted to see these things.

However, the thing about the government had to be discussed by Li Xingfeng, eunuch Chengen and six Shangshu. The emperor's rest for a few days was not in the way.

For three days and nights, Zhu Youjian looked through those old books in the secret room like he was possessed.

Empress Feng Yun came to see him with lanterns. He didn't have time to talk to him.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

After Feng Yun said these words, Zhu Youjian turned his face around somewhat despondently. His face was haggard.

"Your Majesty... What's the matter with you? Don't scare my concubines..."

No one knows why Zhu Youjian has become like this. His dejected appearance is definitely not pretended.

He was never so lost when those people rebelled. How did he become like this after reading a few books.

"Yun, you say I... can I be a good emperor?"

"Of course, your majesty is the ninth five year old. The Lord of all the people in the world will certainly become an emperor through the ages."

Feng Yun is not flattering, because Zhu Youjian in her impression is a particularly powerful person who is dedicated to the country and the people.

How can such a person not be a good emperor when he becomes an emperor.

However, Zhu Youjian's heart at the moment seems to be hit by something powerful.

"I, I suddenly understand... Why did the imperial brother later refuse to participate in the imperial government and hand over all the imperial government to Wei Zhongxian and Guan Chongzhi."

"Why?" Feng Yun asked curiously.

But Zhu Youjian just shook his head: "ha ha, if I had known a few years earlier, I would not choose this throne anyway."

"Your Majesty, don't be silly. Don't be silly." Feng Yun was so frightened that she had never seen such a strong Zhu Youjian show such a side.

This is terrible.

But after cleaning up his mood, Zhu Youjian said according to his heart, "since I have been on the throne, you can't think about it!"
