Chapter 1: Long Review - Ming Yu and Pei Yuanjun (Book Friend 20180614194919701)
Zhao Hanzhang pointed to the memorials on the table and said to the person in front of her, "Ming Aiqing, your health checkup this year is still below average. The people from the Imperial Hospital suggest that you should not overwork yourself anymore, otherwise it will be detrimental to your lifespan."
Ming Yu was indifferent, "Your Majesty, the court is stable nowadays, and the people are becoming more prosperous. I am joyful in my heart, and my body is healthier than before. Those people from the Imperial Hospital are overly alarmist."
Zhao Hanzhang knew he was not someone who could be persuaded, but seeing Ming Yu's increasingly obvious dark circles, she couldn't help but say, "Aiqing, you are well-read in the words of the sages and should know the principle of balancing work and relaxation. Only by taking care of your health can we as monarch and ministers continue accompanying each other for a long time."
"What Your Majesty says is very true." Ming Yu bowed and saluted, but his response was somewhat perfunctory. Seeing that Zhao Hanzhang wanted to say something else, he immediately continued, "The memorial I present today concerns military affairs. I hope Your Majesty can approve it as soon as possible, preferably by tomorrow." Zhao Hanzhang...
She waved her hand, indicating he could leave.
Fu Tinghan, who had been drawing for most of the day and was resting, looked at Zhao Hanzhang with amusement after she met a small snag, "With Mr. Ming, you can't be too forceful."
Zhao Hanzhang sighed, "Back then, when he left Gou Xi, he still endured some criticism, and I'm afraid there's a knot in his heart."
"Such an act of leaving the dark for the bright, why would there be criticism?"
"A strategist is not supposed to be changeable. Some pedantic people in the world are accustomed to writing this type of narrative."
Fu Tinghan thought for a while, "Mr. Ming has now achieved fame and recognition long ago. If this knot remains, I'm afraid it won't be easy to untangle."
Zhao Hanzhang was also troubled, "I feel his goal isn't about himself anymore but rather focuses on me, to assist me in becoming a long-standing emperor in history before he considers his task complete."
