Courage......

The emperor has not wanted to hear this word for many years. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info because he has always felt that he lacks courage, in the past, it was the courage of the Queen Mother, and then it was the courage of the minister, and now it is the courage to break through the status quo. He was not born to the Queen Mother back then, and the Queen Mother intended to guide him, so he never liked to be tough in his handling and decision-making.

When the Queen Mother passed away, he was left with a group of tough ministers, who ignored the criticism of others against the Queen Mother, and did his best to be fair in terms of the name and posthumous mourning, and easily forced out many clans and ministers who originally wanted to make waves by honoring the Holy Mother.

But even so, he still tried to wrestle with the minister twice, and as a result, he killed 8,000 enemies and lost 800 himself, so he prudently decided not to make a big move, so as not to cause disputes in the court and be taken advantage of by foreign enemies. Over the years, all his energy has been spent on promoting and defending his trusted ministers, as well as having sons.

Now he feels that it is true that governing a big country is like cooking small fresh, but the carrion that should be cut still cannot be soft. Especially when he saw that the old lady Yue, who was twelve years older than him, was so surprised, he couldn't help but feel hot when he heard the last eight words.

Without waiting for Pei Xu and the other high-ranking officials who had been stunned by today's serial combination of punches to fully sober up, the emperor got up and said word by word: "Yue Lao Aiqing is right, today's matter is not trivial, I naturally will not take it lightly, otherwise if Beiyan is allowed to take advantage of the loophole and gain the upper hand, how can I be worthy of the ancestors and ancestors!" ”

The emperor glanced at Pei Xu and the others with an unprecedentedly stern gaze, and saw their frowning frowns, dissatisfied dissatisfaction, and seemed to be hesitating about how to object, especially Ye Guanghan, the secretary of the military department who had always been at odds with the old lady Yue, was even more eager to try, he couldn't help but have a headache, and the next sentence was simply thrown directly to the old lady Yue.

"The Shangshu of the Criminal Department and the squire are absent together, what candidate can be recommended by Yue Lao Aiqing?"

As soon as these words came out, Pei Xu and others were in an uproar for a while. But before they could stop or attack, the old lady looked directly at them with a smile, and the sly smile made the hearts of several old guys who had suffered a lot of hair.

"Lao Chen is not very familiar with the affairs of the Criminal Department, so he is familiar with the affairs of the household department. But ......"

These are just two words, the emperor's eyes lit up when he heard it, but Pei Xu and the others were nervous when they heard it.

Even Yue Qianqiu, who had just returned, felt his heart skipping and was a little excited.

Just now, when the old lady Yue expressed his attitude, he saw that the eldest princess of Dongyang had a look that was almost gone, and he hurriedly pulled Liu Fangyuan and Dai Zhanning out together. But when he met Sang Zi, he found that there was one more Qi Nantian.

"To avoid accidents, General Qi will follow me to escort the two of them."

Thinking of Qi Nantian's fierce glaring at him just now, he didn't know that people were complaining that he and Yan Xu were playing with people in a match, but at the moment, compared to Qi Nantian's little depression, what made him care more was naturally the situation in the field.

I saw a close servant beside the emperor go to the door with a straight face, called two guards in, and took out the walking corpse-like Wu Renyuan, Gao Zezhi, who had a blue nose and a swollen face, and this pair of difficult brothers and sisters from the Criminal Department.

And the emperor did not ask others because of the old lady's shirk, but asked the old lady Yue again about the candidate for the secretary of the criminal department, and the strength seemed to be the person who wanted to put this position on his number one confidant.

Yue Qianqiu stared at his grandfather, who had become the target of the public again, and thought that in the minds of these ministers now, the first priority in the future is to prevent fire and theft.

Old lady Yue didn't seem to see a lot of faces with different complexions, and said lightly: "The old minister thinks that Li Changhong, the household servant, is quite suitable. ”

Just looking at the few ministers, their eyes suddenly turned to a middle-aged man, and Yue Qianqiu knew that it was definitely the person recommended by his grandfather this time. He thought that since the other party was a household servant, he should always be his grandfather's confidant, and he was also a very close subordinate, but seeing the other party's blank expression, he knew that he had guessed it wrong.

Looking at this person's expression, he couldn't wait to raise his hand to surrender to the big guys around him, and then confess that he had never thought about the criminal department!

Yue Qianqiu can see it, how can the emperor not see it?

Not only did he see it, but the emperor also suddenly realized that he just didn't ask, and this old man of the household department would also recommend Li Changhong himself, thus shifting everyone's attention from gathering people from various major sects, rebuilding the martial arts record, and shifting to the battle for the candidate for the criminal department's Shangshu. He finally realized why the old lady Yue and his sister Dongyang Eldest Princess never thought of winning the position of the secretary of the criminal department.

Without such a bait for those ugly guys to compete for, how can such a difficult thing be done?

After all, this is to overthrow the martial arts record system established in the last years of the Taizong Dynasty!

In desperation, he suddenly saw Yue Qianqiu, whose eyes flickered and seemed to be in a daze, suddenly shouted as if he was grabbing a life-saving straw: "The emperor and the adults have forgotten, aren't we here to celebrate the birthday of the grandson of the old man today?" ”

Seeing a large number of people instantly like clay carvings and wood sculptures, although he didn't know if he could pass this level safely, he still stubbornly said: "For this reason, the emperor also asked Gonggong Chen to go to the palace to choose a congratulatory gift, why did he forget all about the business at this time?" ”

This time, it was Yue Qianqiu's turn to look confused. Tobe-sama, aren't you? Compared with those major events in the court, my seven-year-old child's blind birthday is the right thing? Even if grandpa played a good trick to lead the way, but you are a little too inferior to draw a gourd......

But this time he didn't have time to speak, but only heard a few loud slaps, and when he looked again, it turned out that the little fat man who was still on the table had not come down at all, and was slapping at this moment.

"Yes, yes, father, Qianqiu had an easy birthday, but it was actually mixed up like this, and he had to be compensated!"

found that his string of people had become the focus of attention, and Yue Qianqiu was angry and funny. But he even took out his birthday and sacrificed it, at this time, he simply beat the snake with the stick, ran to the old lady Yue with a smoke, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, it turns out that you invited the emperor and all the old men to accompany me for my birthday?" That's great, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, ......."

He counted them one by one, and the last one counted to the emperor's head: "Doesn't this mean that in addition to grandpa, you can also add seven congratulatory gifts to me?" ”

"This time you're making a mistake." Old lady Yue skipped the emperor, casually pointed at his colleagues, and his fingers stayed on Li Changhong's body for a while, until the other party was extremely unnatural, and then he said earnestly, "You must know that the two of Wu Renyuan and Gao Zezhi before were also paid by the emperor and gave them a congratulatory gift from the royal treasury. ”

"I see." Yue Qianqiu knocked his fist on his palm, making a sudden realization, but then he bowed deeply at the emperor with a smile.

"Thank you to the emperor for his deep friendship, but I really didn't dare to accept the two copies that my grandfather said, so I could only return them to the emperor. Master is the head disciple of the Xuandao Hall, I am the master's apprentice, and I will never accept the enemy's things! Miss Zhou is my friend, and I can't accept anything from my friend's enemy! ”

As soon as the words fell, he saw a figure rushing past him, and when he saw clearly that it was the little fat man, and the little fat man was directly beside the emperor and grabbed his hands and was cute, Rao is himself can use this set perfectly when he needs it, and he still can't help but be shocked.

"Father, since Qianqiu doesn't want it, you can give it to your son, and your son will give it to him as a gift. Anyway, Erchen just gave the elder Yue a strong voice to cheer, you give Erchen this face, Erchen came out in a hurry, the congratulatory gift is prepared, but it is a little too thin! ”

This time, even the old lady Yue was already twitching at the corners of her mouth.

If you can't see that this dead little fat man is desperately trying to get closer to his family, he has lived in vain for so many years!

But just when Li Yiming saw that the emperor's face was gradually improving, and it was obvious that he might agree to this condition, what he didn't expect was that he suddenly got up from the ground. Startled, he struggled twice, then realized something, hurriedly looked left and right, and immediately saw the black hand carrying him.

Who else is not Yan Xu?

Yan Xu, who had a rigid face, said coldly: "Since my uncle helped them give a congratulatory gift to Qianqiu, Qianqiu didn't accept it, so I collected it for him!" Those two guys owe such a large sum of money to the White Lotus Sect and the Xuandao Hall, what is it to receive them a little congratulatory gift, and besides, it is the uncle who helps to pay it! ”

Speaking of this, he also glanced at Li Changhong with an unkind face, which made the latter only feel a burst of shock, inexplicable.

"As for Lord Li, the head of the household department, you are about to be promoted, don't you think you should give my family a double gift? If it weren't for his birthday today, would you have a chance to be promoted to the secretary of the Criminal Department? ”

I'm not a criminal secretary yet! The hapless Tobe squire-sama wanted to cry without tears. Who the hell am I messing with today!
