Chapter 21: The Scepter
The two were stunned at the same time, and Ah Jiu walked out from behind Mo Guanjie and knelt on the other side of the table, just facing Uncle Lu.
Ah Jiu took the clean and unused white porcelain teacup and poured himself a cup of tea, quietly glared at King Lu Yan when he lifted his eyelids, pursed his lips, twisted his face, and looked willful that he didn't show him, didn't he know that the facial lines on her side were more pretty and colorful, her curly and straight eyelashes were more slender, her eyes were amazingly bright, and from the side, her small nose was also upturned.
Lu Tianyang knew that he should withdraw his gaze, but his eyes went against his will and took another look...... Maybe you can find a different Ah Jiu again...... Niece.
He is her uncle, it doesn't hurt to look at it, he is not a person who loves Ah Jiu, not to mention that Ah Jiu is still young, so young and young, in his eyes he is like a child.
It's just that the depth she occasionally reveals makes his heart tremble.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Mo Guanjie suddenly slapped his thigh, and suddenly realized: "Ah Jiu said it very well, look at your majesty...... I also hope that Brother Lu Xian will talk to Brother Yu in detail. ”
"Ahem." Lu Tianyang almost choked on the tea in his mouth.
Ah Jiu smiled on his lips, he deserved it!
This smile, she is even more vivid, with bright teeth and bright eyes, pretty and cute, like a delicate begonia slowly spreading.
"Ah Jiu, don't laugh at your Uncle Lu."
"I didn't laugh."
Ah Jiu blinked playfully, revealing four white teeth, Lu Tianyang coughed according to the mask, slightly wolf-like, let you peek at me! "Uncle Lu, my father is still waiting for you to tell you about Ouyang Jue's condition in detail."
“……”
Liu Tiecheng took a few steps back again, his arms around his chest, and he was very sympathetic to Commander Lu.
However, King Lu Yan is not an idle person after all, after stopping the cough, he took another sip of tea, put his arm on his knee casually, and was lazy and wanton without seeing Fang Cai's embarrassment, "Ah Jiu's niece really makes me look at it differently, since she can say Fang Cai's words, she also has a spectrum in her heart, so let her talk about it first, if there is anything wrong, I will point out Ah Jiu's niece." ”
King Lu Yan also showed four white teeth, but he was not smiling, but proud, showing the pride of his elders everywhere!
"Brother Mo, I spoiled Ah Jiu's niece too much, not to be nice to her but to mistake her."
"Brother Lu Xian is very reasonable, Ah Jiu, you can talk about it first."
Mo Guanjie also has the intention to exercise Ah Jiu's vision, his daughter should not limit her eyes to one acre and three points of land in the back house, stabilize the back house inside, and assist her husband outside, this is what he Mo Guanjie expects from his daughters.
At the same time, Mo Guanjie also has selfishness, Ah Jiu has a broad vision and is extremely knowledgeable, and he will definitely no longer compete with Mo Xinlan and Mo Xinqing for money, dowry, jewelry and other vulgar things, so he is more calm when facing the original daughter-in-law, step-daughter, and concubine, and he is still wearing shoes and socks made by Mo Xinlan himself, and he really doesn't want his daughters to compete for favor in front of him.
Although Mo Guanjie is more affectionate to Ah Jiu, he also strives to have a bowl of water.
"On the way back to Beijing, I heard Uncle Lu mention the reason why my father was escorted back to Beijing."
Ah Jiu accentuated his tone on Uncle Lu, as if there was a malicious resentment, Lu Tianyang didn't hear it, and slowly tasted tea with a smile in his eyes, "I did leak something about Ah Jiu's niece." ”
No matter how slow Mo Guanjie reacted, he also noticed the spark between Lu Xiandi and Ah Jiu, and he wondered how this was going on.
"After returning to Beijing, I carefully looked at Ouyang Jue's resume after joining the company."
"Resume?"
Lu Tianyang saw Ah Jiu take out the neatly folded rice paper from the embroidered bag that straddled his waist, and he realized that Ah Jiu was not wearing accessories such as jade pendants that girls often wore on his waist.
Ah Jiu took out a piece of rice paper, flattened the rice paper and put it on the table, Mo Guanjie and Lu Tianyang put their eyes on the rice paper at the same time, a simple and clear resume, starting from the tenth in the second list of Ouyang Jue High School, and the year was also marked next to it, Lu Tianyang blurted out: "If the officials use this method, it will be more convenient for officials to be promoted and mastered." ”
"Here......" Ah Jiu's slender finger pointed to the location of Jiangnan Yanyun, "Since the crime of the fifth prince is His Royal Highness the Prince of Demon Town, and it has little to do with Ouyang Jue, if Ouyang Jue becomes an accomplice of His Royal Highness the Prince of Demon Town, whether he opens his mouth or not, His Majesty will not spare him." Last year, I heard that the salt merchants tried to get as much salt as possible in order to tie up the salt transport, and each showed their magical powers to throw the silver and gold of the white flowers into the water. ”
"Does the emperor want Ouyang Jue to tell the account book? Freeze the silver deposits of His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince? ”
Mo Guanjie wiped his beard, Ouyang Jue was said to be the god of wealth of the five princes, and frowned, "No, I always feel a little worse." ”
"The whole world is Majesty's, will Your Majesty be short of silver? Of course, His Majesty would not mind digging out the silver that had not yet been spent, and His Majesty wanted to rectify the salt administration in Jiangnan the most, killing a group of salt merchants and corrupt officials bribed by salt merchants to deter the courtiers. Jiangnan belongs to the old country of Nanling, most of the remnants of Nanling retreated to the coastal islands, His Majesty put the imperial capital in Yanjing, the most uneasy is Jiangnan, Nanling...... It is determined by Chengguo fairly, and there are many old departments of Chengguo Gong in Jiangnan. ”
She said and glanced at Lu Tianyang, so that the commander of Jinyiwei could personally escort his father south into Beijing, the emperor's eyes were not just Yanzheng, and he didn't know that Jinyiwei had buried a few nails in Jiangnan.
"The distribution of salt once every three years will indeed make salt merchants fight for their heads."
Lu Tianyang avoided talking about Cheng Guogong, and he didn't want Ah Jiu to know too much, "Your Majesty has the heart to sort out the salt administration, and there is no good way to do it." ”
"The allocation of salt can be tendered."
After Ah Jiu finished speaking, he was also stunned, frowning as if he was thinking about how he said this?
"Bidding?!" Lu Tianyang's eyes were very bright and full of ambition, "Yes, the one with the highest price will get it." ”
In this way, he can try his best to compress the huge profits of the salt merchants, and it is also a great income for Emperor Shenwu, which can be achieved by the cooperation of Jinyiwei, and he Lu Tianyang can also get some benefits from it, and by the way, he will be deeply rooted in Jiangnan, and there will be unexpected gains.
Ah Jiu didn't bother to look at the ambitious Uncle Lu anymore, turned his head to Mo Guanjie who was thinking hard and said: "Even if Dad knows the emperor's intentions, it is difficult to get Ouyang Jue to speak, although he relied on your funding to go to school back then, but Ouyang Jue has been an official for many years, and he is a close confidant of the fifth prince, he is by no means a poor student in the past, his mentality has changed, Uncle Lu can't let him speak, and he can't ask for his life, I think you have to think about the countermeasures to persuade him first." ”
Once Mo Guanjie fails to complete the task, God knows if Emperor Shenwu will blame Mo Guanjie for his incompetence, even if Mo Guanjie can get out of the edict, it will be difficult to be an official.
Are there still fewer unlucky founding nobles in recent years?
Emperor Shenwu and the heroes who fought the country together with him will be destroyed if they are destroyed, and they will care about Mo Guanjie's little credit?
Throughout the history books, the founding emperor of any dynasty is as hard as iron, unloading the mill and killing the donkey, Emperor Shenwu's words and deeds are quite similar to the ** emperor Han Gaozu, the founding heroes of the Western Han Dynasty with the cooperation of Liu Bang and Lu Pheasant, and in the end, few of them got a good death.
At that time, Han Gaozu did not have the factory guards who are now all over the government and the opposition.
Mo Guanjie was also a little embarrassed, and said, "I can only do my best." ”
"Daddy......" Ah Jiu approached Mo Guanjie and said in a low voice: "You might as well start from the importance that Your Majesty attaches to Ouyang Jue, so that Ouyang Jue has the hope of surviving, he has only been in the office for eight years, faster than your promotion, and His Majesty Xu regards him as the most indispensable talent in the empire." ”
"Isn't it authentic to deceive him?"
Mo Guanjie was a little hesitant and a little excited.
Ah Jiu admires his father the most, he is kind but not blind, obsessed with the holy way but not sour, persistent in the right way but not stubborn, and flexible in his actions.
"None of the sins he has committed are punishable by statute."
Ah Jiu handed the excerpted statute to Mo Guanjie, "Atonement for his sins and make a contribution to the empire, he is not a white-collar worker for many years, and he will live up to the emperor's grace." ”
Lu Tianyang stretched his head to look at Ah Jiu's neatly written law, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, "Brother Mo is so attentive to Ah Jiu's niece, I am worried that she will be hurt if she is extremely wise, and she will go down the evil path with her own wisdom." ”
"Uncle Lu!"
Ah Jiuyi pushed Lu Tianyang's head away, showed it to you in vain, and ended up complaining, sure enough, he was a bad person!
Lu Tianyang's mellow and low laughter made Ah Jiu even more annoyed, put away the things, and touched the beads on her head, Lu Tianyang grabbed her wrist to stop it, "The reason why I sent out was never returned." ”
The two looked at each other for a long time, Ah Jiuxian couldn't help but look away, snorted unconvinced, and muttered, "Domineering." ”
"My lord, Lord Lu."
Liu Tiegong hurriedly ran in from outside, and Lu Tianyang immediately withdrew his arm that was holding Ah Jiu, "What's the matter?" ”
"Jiang Cifu ......" Liu Tiegong glanced at Ah Jiu and Mo Guanjie, and lowered his voice in Lu Tianyang's ear, Ah Jiu couldn't hear what Liu Tiegong said when he raised his ears, only to see Lu Tianyang's face gloomy, "Where is the arrangement?" ”
"I'm waiting for the adults to show me."
Lu Tianyang got up and walked out a little hard, and when he looked down, sure enough, Ah Jiu's little hand once again tightly grabbed his shirt, "Uncle Lu." ”
Her voice was sweet and soft, and she would behave like a kitten if she asked him.
"Jiang Cifu received the court staff and was imprisoned like Brother Mo."
“……”
Ah Jiu jumped up all of a sudden, "Grandpa?" Where is it? ”
Then she obediently dragged Lu Hades and shook her arm gently, "I'll go with Uncle Lu." ”
Her voice was like a feather crossing her heart, itching very much, Lu Tianyang looked at her for a long time, "Hmm." ”
At such a young age, there are signs of bad luck, and you will have it in the future?
Gotta pay more attention to her...... Stop her from causing trouble to the world! ps continue to ask for collections, ask for recommended votes. Thanks to the Wu family for the reward of Youyu and mcj221, no matter how cold Xinwen is, Ye insists that this is a good story.
