Cheng Yaojin hugged herself tightly as soon as she left the room.
It was too cold. He felt that he would freeze to death this winter.
At this time, the sky was completely dark. Because there was no moon, it was almost impossible to see the bottom of the sky.
He took out the table lamp and turned it on. Then, he went home.
As soon as he entered the door, he began to pack his belongings and was bumped into by his wife, Cui Shi.
"Husband, it's already so late, why are you packing up?”
"Recently, His Majesty has something important to discuss with us. He has summoned us ministers to the palace so that we can discuss it at any time.
By the way, give me a few catties of beef to bring along.”
"You can't do that. His Majesty doesn't allow us to kill cattle. If we find out that you're eating beef, we'll blame you.”
"Don't be afraid. If you find out, just say that our cow died of depression.”
Madam Cui shook her head helplessly.
Even he himself did not believe this reason." Alright, I'll go and pretend for you.”
After Cheng Yaojin packed his bedding, Madam Cui happened to bring the beef.
"I wrapped five catties for you. If it's not enough, come back and get it.”
Cheng Yaojin took the beef and stuffed it into his blanket.
"Thank you, Madam.
After I leave, I have to prepare more charcoal. This winter is not easy.
Look at the snow. It won't stop for a while. If the snow closes the mountain, it won't be easy to buy charcoal.”
"Got it. Be careful on the road.”
After that, Cheng Yaojin carried his bedding and walked into the palace.
However, just as he left, Wei Zheng came to visit Madam Cui before she even entered the house.
"Madam Cui, is General Cheng at home?”
"He just left. Are you looking for him for something?"
"Well, I just came back from overseas today. I heard that the emperor did not have morning court today, so I came to confirm. I wonder where General Cheng went?"
Madam Cui pointed in the direction Cheng Yaojin had left." He went to the palace from this road.”
"Then what did he do?"
Madam Cui frowned." You don't know?" The Emperor had something important to discuss and summoned the important officials to the palace.”
For the first time, Wei Zheng felt neglected.
Moreover, if the Emperor had something important to do, it was completely unreasonable for him to look for Cheng Yaojin instead of him.
There must be something fishy going on.
"Farewell, Madam Cui."
After bidding farewell to Madam Cui, he immediately headed to the Imperial Palace, intending to inquire about the matter of the Tang Emperor not attending court and slacking off.
At this moment.
Wang Zhao, Li Shimin, and the others were waiting for the warm air in the Dew Palace to heat up.
Wang Zhao looked at the time and felt that it was about time.
"Old Li, go to the various parts of the hall and feel it. The entire hall should be heating up now.”
Li Shiming turned around and walked to another part of the hall.
He was surprised to find that the place ten feet away was cold, but now it was actually hot, just like staying at the entrance of the passage.
He walked around the entire hall and found that every place was very warm.
He said happily," That's great. The entire hall is heating up. The two beloved ministers should also feel it."”
Hence, Zhangsun Wuji and Yuan Tiangang started to walk around.
Zhangsun Wuji commented,"
"It's so comfortable. It's like bathing in the sun. I don't feel the coldness of winter at all.
If only I had a heater in my room, I would be able to wake up laughing.”
Yuan Tiangang smiled and said," This is the place where people should live in winter. Life after a thousand years is really good."
Li Shi Min cupped his fists and said," Thank you, Young Master Wang. If it weren't for you, I would have suffered again this winter."”
"It's a small matter. Right, the ground should be hot now, so he didn't need to wear shoes. He could walk barefoot.”
Li Shiming immediately squatted down and touched the ground with his hand. He found that it was really hot.
He immediately took off his shoes and started walking on it with his socks on.
"That's great. I can't feel the coldness at all. The future generations are smart.”
After that, Zhangsun Wuji and Yuan Tiangang also took off their shoes and tried to feel it.
Li Shiming walked a few rounds and returned to the front of the passage. He raised his feet and saw that the bottom of the two socks was dirty.
Seeing this, Wang Zhao suggested," Old Li, you can wipe the floor of the hall thoroughly. In the future, when everyone comes in, put your shoes outside.”
Li Shimin nodded." That's a good idea.”
"It's freezing! It's freezing!"
Cheng Yaojin's voice sounded like a broken gong from outside. The next moment, he rushed in from outside.
His entire body was covered in snow, and he curled up into a ball, trembling non-stop.
The moment he entered the room, he suddenly felt his surroundings heat up.
He said in surprise," It's getting hot so quickly. Even the door is so hot. The floor heating is good."”
Li Shiming looked at the snow on Cheng Yaojin's feet and the open door, and closed his eyes in anger.
"Yizhen, can you close the door immediately after you enter the house? The heat is going outside.”
Cheng Yaojin smiled honestly and immediately turned to close the door." Your Majesty, please calm down. I will be more careful next time."”
Li Shimin cleared his throat.
"I want to announce something. In the future, when everyone comes in, you must leave your shoes outside the door.
Tomorrow, I will order people to wipe the floor clean and wear shoes to prevent dirtying the floor.
If anyone dared to wear shoes and enter, they would be fined a hundred taels of silver.”
"Report! Prime Minister Wei greets you!"
Li Shi Min's heart clenched.
Wei Zheng came so late. He must have come to teach him about not attending the morning court session today.
"It's getting late, let Prime Minister Wei go back. We'll talk about it tomorrow morning.”
At this moment, Wei Zheng was huddled together and shivering outside.
She hoped that she could quickly recruit him into the house to warm him up.
His heart sank when he heard that the Tang Emperor had rejected him.
The attendant came over and advised," Prime Minister Wei, go back quickly. It's late. We'll talk about it tomorrow."”
If it was in the past, he would really go back.
However, today was different from the past. He was still holding back his anger.
What was so important that she could call Cheng Yaojin, this uncouth man, instead of him?
"Please report to His Majesty. If His Majesty doesn't summon me, I'll stand here for the night.”
