Chapter 545: Above the court, make a big show
sent away Xiao Zhao, and Zhao asked Mama Zhao to personally invite Luo Zheng and his wife to Yuanxiangtang, closed the door and talked secretly for a long time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After the conversation was over, Luo Zheng and his wife returned to Jiyingtang.
Luo Qingran knew all this, but what she didn't know was that from this day on, her father and grandmother's control over her suddenly became strict, and it was not until a big happy event happened that she was lifted and was "strictly guarded".
Early the next morning, Mu Qiubai followed Mo Yao to the court.
Although I thought I was fully prepared before I came, but when I really arrived at the gate of the palace, if I said that I was not nervous at all, it would definitely be false.
Fortunately, he followed behind Mo Yao, and when he saw someone, Mo Yao would introduce him, and after a while, he arrived at the Zhaode Hall and prepared to go to the morning court.
After the three shouts, the ministers got up, Mu Qiubai followed behind Mo Yao, and he also stood up, half-hanging his head, and did not look at it.
"Which one is Mu Qiubai, come forward and let me see." The majestic voice of Emperor Qiyang came from top to bottom.
Mu Qiubai secretly took a breath, calmed down, took a step sideways, and bowed: "Grass people Mu Qiubai, I have seen the emperor, may my emperor live long live!" ”
Emperor Qiyang looked at the young man under the imperial stairs, his eyebrows were clear, he was upright, his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, he was really a talent.
"Calm down, get up and talk."
"Your Majesty." Mu Qiubai bowed again before getting up.
"Good, good." Emperor Qiyang nodded with satisfaction and praised it three times in a row.
Mu Qiubai half-hung his head, and said in his heart that the emperor said that the emperor is the most important rule, no matter what the emperor says, he must not lose the rules in front of the emperor, this is really true.
"Mu Qiubai," Emperor Qiyang suddenly asked, "You have made meritorious service, have you ever thought about any reward?" Raise your head and talk back. ”
Hearing this, Mu Qiubai immediately straightened up, glanced at Emperor Qiyang, and then staggered his gaze again, only looking at the position of Emperor Qiyang's chin, and replied loudly: "The grass people are brave, I want to ask the emperor, do the grass people make any kind of request, and the emperor will agree?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the whole court was shocked, and many important ministers reprimanded him for being bold and asked him if he wanted to threaten the Son of Heaven.
Mu Qiubai ignored all of them, and only waited for Emperor Qiyang to express his position generously.
After a while, the ministers only heard Emperor Qiyang chuckle, and there was obviously some interest on his face, "As long as it does not threaten the national foundation and does not violate the law, I can promise you, tell me, what do you want." ”
"Your Majesty, think twice!" The right minister excitedly persuaded.
Immediately afterwards, many important ministers echoed the words of the right minister and advised Emperor Qiyang to think twice.
Emperor Qiyang snorted lightly and waved his hand, "I have my own measure, Mu Qiubai, you can say it." ”
Mu Qiu's white chin said: "The emperor is the lord of the Holy Ming, although the grass people have never entered the office, but since the young father taught the grass people, the husband is alive, loyalty and patriotism is the top priority, look up to the sky, bow down to the people is the grass people's family motto, the grass people have been businessmen for generations, the father has always had a grand ambition, that is, to do the Mu family's business overseas, for the prosperity of the sea trade and dedication to their own efforts, but unfortunately the father was alive when he was not able to realize this grand wish, and now the grass people heard that the emperor ordered the opening of the sea feat, I couldn't help but feel agitated in my heart, when I thought of my father's ambition, the grass people didn't ask for anything else, just wanted to ask the emperor to grant the grass people the right to exercise maritime business! ”
"Shameless child, Hugh has to speak in front of the emperor!" Uncle Li Yunfei listened to Mu Qiubai's high-minded talk, and he was anxious at the moment.
He knew that this Mu Qiubai was not a fuel-efficient lamp, he followed Duanjin Wangye, and his ambitions were also great!
Sure enough, as soon as he had the opportunity, he immediately revealed his ambitions.
I really don't know whether to live or die, the emperor doesn't like people to talk about the government the most, he is a civilian, and he even wants to meddle in the major affairs of shipping, it is really ignorant and arrogant!
"Yunfei, speak cautiously in front of Your Majesty." The right minister reprimanded his son lightly.
In fact, he thought about it the same as his son in his heart, but he didn't say it.
Anyway, the son is impatient, and he is a little careless when he is anxious, and the emperor has long been used to it.
Then he made a show and reprimanded two sentences, and most of the time it ended according to the meaning of their father and son, as it had been before.
He didn't dare to say anything else, but compared to the emperor's thoughts, no one dared to say that he was better than him!
However, to the surprise of the right minister, this time, the father and son actually miscalculated......
After listening to Mu Qiubai's words, Emperor Qiyang not only did not get angry, but also seemed to be very happy.
The right minister looked at Emperor Qiyang's growing smile, and suddenly felt a little bad in his heart.
Sure enough, the next moment, I heard Emperor Qiyang laugh, pointed at Mu Qiubai and said, "Okay! This is my great prayer, the great prayer is to have young people like you who have ideas and dare to act will have a broader tomorrow, your request, I agreed! Xu Zhinian, immediately draft a decree, seal Mu Qiubai as the first imperial merchant of the country, and wait for the royal merchant ships to be built, Mu Qiubai, you will follow the maritime merchant who took this first trip, let me also see, whether you are ambitious or really capable! ”
Mu Qiubai was stunned for a moment, seemingly a little incredulous, and then came back to his senses, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to thank him.
Emperor Qiyang smiled and flattened him.
Mu Qiubai stood up excitedly and promised: "The grass people, the grass people will live up to the emperor's trust, and they must carry forward and grow the maritime merchants of the Qi country, so that all overseas countries can see and understand, and the prosperity of my great prayer!" ”
"Okay, I'll wait to see if the promise you made will come true!" Emperor Qiyang also seemed to be infected by Mu Qiubai's attitude, and his words were full of pride.
The right minister was stunned, he looked at Emperor Qiyang sitting on the dragon chair, and seemed to be a little unrecognizable.
Is this still the emperor he remembered who only seeks moderation in everything? The right minister was stunned and thought, the Emperor Qiyang in his impression, everything should be based on his advice first?
"Daddy." Li Yunfei gently pulled the right phase who was still stunned.
Only then did the right minister come back to his senses, and looked at the ministers shouting long live, praising the emperor and the emperor, and the right minister also bowed down in a daze.
It's just that I'm still thinking in my heart, Shengming, what Shengming? Don't listen to his advice anymore, are you still sage?
Until Xu Zhinian shouted the "retreat from the dynasty", the right minister still couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.
Li Yunfei looked at his father, who couldn't help but be a little worried, waved away all the courtiers who came forward to talk, and helped his father to take the lead out of the palace gate.
Mo Yao walked behind with Mu Qiubai, glanced at their father and son coldly, and turned his head to greet the courtiers again.
Feng Shui takes turns, just like this once, Li Yi can't stand it, and there are so many opportunities for him to be dumbfounded in the future, I hope his old bones can withstand the blow!
