Chapter 235 How about you become the Dali Temple Minister

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

The emperor was too lazy to argue with these two troublesome guys and motioned them to eat first. They were worried about the braised food in their own room and had no appetite. They just took a few bites and said they were full. The emperor did not expose them and started talking about business with them.

"Third brother, you will be fifteen years old after the New Year. In the past, you always wanted to go to the Ministry of Justice for training. This year is over. Starting tomorrow, you should report to the Ministry of Justice." This would prevent him from running to his wife for no reason.

"Your Majesty, is it true? Can I really go to the Ministry of Justice?" The Third Prince was so surprised that his long-cherished wish was fulfilled that he forgot to blame his elder brother, the Emperor.

"Of course it's true. However, you have to start from the bottom and don't show off your power as a prince there." The emperor said gently. Starting from the bottom means doing all the dirty and tiring work by yourself. No one knows what the third brother is so happy about. The emperor would not admit that he was jealous of the third brother who could enter and leave Huangpin's Ningyuxuan at will, and deliberately made him start from the bottom.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I won't do that. I will definitely not bring shame to the royal family." The Third Prince had no idea of ​​the Emperor's thoughts. He only knew that he had finally gone to the Ministry of Justice. He couldn't help but rub his hands: "You two chat, I have to go back and prepare." After saying that, he ran away.

"And you." The emperor looked at the lazy and unruly little Prince Fu and said, "According to your father's intention, you will return to your fiefdom after the New Year. You are a capable person. If it were up to me, I would like you to stay and help me, but I am afraid that keeping you would arouse the suspicion of my uncle. It is up to you to decide whether to go or stay." The emperor's words were from the heart.

Prince Fu scratched his head in distress: "Your Majesty, I'm telling you the truth. I'm reluctant to leave the capital, my uncle, you and the third brother, and my brother Huang..."

Emperor: Come on, you just can’t bear to part with the food at your brother Huang’s house.

"But, I also miss my father and mother, and I don't know whether to go or stay." The little Prince Fu also has a brotherly love for the emperor. The emperor asked him to stay and help him, and the word "help" successfully softened his heart.

"If you stay in the capital, I will hand over the Dali Temple to you." The emperor had this idea a long time ago. The Chief Justice of the Dali Temple was already old and had submitted his resignation last year. He had been holding it back and wanted to find someone from his own family to take over. It happened that Xuanyuan Ze returned to the capital for the New Year at that time. The emperor felt that he should be the best candidate for the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple. As the saying goes, brothers are the best match when fighting a tiger.

As for his other brother Xuanyuan Jing, what can he say? He is still working in the Ministry of Rites. Xuanyuan Jing is also smart and capable, but the emperor doesn't know what's wrong with him. He just doesn't want to use him. Although they are brothers, he thinks Xuanyuan Ze is closer to him than Xuanyuan Jing.

"Your Majesty, I have no objection. It's just that my father needs to be persuaded." He is the prince of a fiefdom, but instead of staying there, he came to the capital to be an official. His father must be worried, fearing that it is a royal conspiracy to detain him in the capital.

"Then you go back first and explain it clearly to your uncle. It doesn't matter if he disagrees. We are still good brothers. If he agrees, you can bring your family over. I will set up a Prince Fu Mansion for you outside the palace, and you can move in when the time comes." The emperor also knew that this matter could not be forced, so he discussed it in a nice voice.

"Okay, I'll go back after the Lantern Festival." The little Prince Fu was also a straightforward man. He went back to his fiefdom to see what his father had to say. In his heart, he actually preferred to stay in the capital and work in the Dali Temple. He liked investigating cases, using his brain, and challenging difficult tasks.

Chuxiu Palace.

The lights were on in Nanny Xing's room. Three old sisters were sitting around a table with food on it. The most eye-catching thing was the braised food that Huang Ye asked Fanghua to bring, which filled three large bowls. There were also three wine bowls, one for each of the three people.

"This taste... I have been in this palace for decades, and I have never eaten such delicious meat. Huangpin is really thoughtful." Nanny Xing picked up a piece of pig ear and put it in her mouth: "Why didn't I know before that there are so many delicious things on the pig's head."

"He's a good child." Nanny Zhang didn't say much, just focused on eating and drinking.

"To be honest with you two sisters, when I first saw those pig heads and offal, I was confused and doubted whether they were edible." Fanghua picked up a piece of pig intestines and put it in her mouth.

"I don't know how the Queen made it so delicious. What's rare is that she remembered to send some to you two." Fanghua sighed.

"We only exchanged a few words at the time, but the child remembered it. He is grateful and repays his kindness. In the future, Ning Yuxuan will need us two, so just ask."

Nanny Xing was happy. She wanted to smile to express her happiness, but unfortunately everyone said that her smile looked like crying, so she just grinned and spoke solemnly to Fanghua.

"In the past, the three of us protected Concubine Yi. Now, let's work together to protect the child." Fanghua said. They have spent their entire lives in the palace, alone and childless. Now, they have treated Huang Ye as their own child and plan to protect her under their wings.

"That person might make some moves in the next few days." Fanghua pointed in the direction of Kunning Palace.

"Oh, she has only been in the palace for a few days. How come that child has irritated her and she is so impatient to deal with her." Nanny Xing found it incomprehensible, and Nanny Zhang also looked at Fanghua worriedly.

"Isn't it because Ning Yuxuan is close to Qiyun Palace that caused this trouble?" Fanghua told the two of them about Huang Ye helping the retired emperor lose weight.

"That makes sense. That person isn't a very open-minded person. Maybe he's thinking about how to get you to move out of Ning Yuxuan right now." Nanny Xing guessed.

"Her Majesty is determined not to move out. Ning Yuxuan is very satisfied. If she doesn't move out, the Queen will definitely find a way to make her move out. I'm sure you two are familiar with the tricks in the harem. I'm just afraid that Her Majesty will suffer." Fanghua was very sad when she talked about this. She had been worrying about this issue for the past few days: "The Queen brought it up herself today."

"It would be great if the emperor could come forward and stop us from moving." said Nanny Zhang.

"That child never thought of letting the emperor come to Ningyuxuan." Fanghua was even more worried when she talked about this: "I also heard her tell Hongdou that it would be best if the emperor didn't come to Ningyuxuan."

"The child is still too young to understand." Nanny Xing defended him, "We have seen the Queen's methods over the past few years. If there is anything, you must come and tell us. As long as we can help, we will spare no effort to help."
