Chapter 34: The Edict
Lu Sheng looked aggrieved, and was speechless at this time.
He is not stupid, before His Majesty promoted the market scoundrels of Junchen, which has attracted countless opposition, and now he recommends a cook, he has to be prepared to be sprayed to death, and now His Majesty has come to ask what official position should be awarded, isn't this pushing people into the fire pit?
Lu Sheng is well versed in the non-violent and non-cooperative methods of the Tianzhu people, so he simply pretends to be stupid.
Wu Zetian pursed his lips and smiled, seeing through his thoughts at a glance: "Then it's okay to seal the palace envoy?" ”
Lu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then his soul flew away.
This imperial envoy is only a supervisory organization, but in the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is extremely important, the imperial history of the Taiwan is divided into Taiwan, the palace, and the procuratorate, each performing its own duties, the palace of the imperial envoy is not high, but from the seven grades, to be honest, this official position is logically speaking, in the eyes of Lu Sheng, it is not as good as a dog. But the actual situation is different, the imperial envoy is responsible for supervising the hundred officials, and when Wu Zetian ascends the throne, he has even become a tool to fight against dissidents, such as Lai Junchen, who is now in the limelight, and now he is serving as the imperial envoy from the sixth grade of the Taiwan Academy, which is a little higher than the imperial envoy of the palace, but the authority is monstrous, and even some clans have to compete with him, and they dare not rebel.
Now His Majesty asks himself, can Qin Shaoyou be the palace attendant, if he nods his head, who knows if there will be a second Junchen, at that time, even if he is the secretary of the Honglu Temple, a high and powerful position, but everyone in the world spit is enough to drown him.
Lu Sheng said: "Your Majesty, no, Qin Shaoyou is too young to take on the heavy responsibility of supervision, and he is just a cloth cloth, such an arrangement is really too hasty, and the minister thinks it is impossible." ”
Wu Zetian showed regret: "Can't you be an envoy?" That's a dilemma. She sighed softly and said, "Then, I will think about it again, in short, although you have a small fault, you also have the merit of recommending talents for the country, which can be regarded as a merit offset ...... demerits."
Wu Zetian stood up with a smile, she deliberately mentioned the credit, and this credit was actually a hot potato, he didn't dare to ask for it.
It's just that at the moment, he can't refute it, the only thing he can expect is that Qin Shaoyou is more reliable, because according to the Tang system, if there are really talented people in the market, a high-ranking official like Lu Sheng is qualified to be recommended, but in order to prevent the appointment of private individuals, there is a joint sitting system, if Qin Shaoyou is unreliable, Lu Sheng's good life will not last long, if Qin Shaoyou is a crime, his silverfish bag is afraid that it will not be guaranteed, if this guy is crazy, it will be even worse, the whole family will have to go in and eat prison for a lifetime.
Wu Zetian was already standing up, she smiled slightly, and said to Qin Shaoyou: "I should have summoned you in the palace, but I never thought about it, but in the end, I talked to the secretary here, you are so self-conscious." ”
Qin Shaoyou hurriedly said: "The grass people obey the order. ”
Wu Zetian moved and drove back to the palace.
The mighty palace people and guards stretched for several miles, hugging the Son of Heaven and heading towards the Gate of Heaven.
…………
Lu Sheng and Qin Shaoyou drove outside Huaiyuan Station, and waited until the Luan drive of the Son of Heaven disappeared into sight.
Both of them exhaled a breath of turbid air at the same time.
It's not easy.
Then Lu Sheng looked at Qin Shaoyou sideways, he was a little worried in his heart, he 'recommended' Qin Shaoyou, is this person reliable or not, if it is unreliable, but it will cost people's lives, so he wondered in his heart, should he test it and find out the bottom.
"Qin Shaoyou? Is Shaoyou a name, or a word? ”
Qin Shaoyou said: "There are no words yet." ”
Lu Sheng despised him in his heart, and he was indeed a grass farmer, but he still smiled lightly: "The dishes you make are very good, have you ever married a wife?" ”
Qin Shaoyou scratched his head and said, "No." ”
Lu Sheng frowned, people who don't marry a wife are unreliable, they are single, and one day they make a mistake, and they hurt people a lot.
Lu Sheng has regarded him as an unstable factor, but he still continued to squeeze out a smile reluctantly: "It seems that he has not yet reached the age of marriage, and he has done so at a young age, very good, very good, the old man is the most fond of young men like you, young people don't know what it feels like, haha...... When the old man was as old as you, he was also young and frivolous, and when he saw you, the old man thought of his former self. ”
Lu Sheng laughed heartily, but he actually buried a dark nail.
Qin Shaoyou shook his head and said honestly: "Adults don't know, the grass people come from humble backgrounds, and occasionally they don't know the etiquette, but the word frivolity has wronged the grass people." ”
Lu Sheng's eyes lit up and said, "Really?" He said in his heart, if he can be honest and do his duty, it will be regarded as my Lu family ancestor who has accumulated great virtue.
Seeing that Lu Sheng didn't believe it, Qin Shaoyou hurriedly said: "My lord, I don't know, after the grass people lost their father, someone named Zhou Wen bullied the grass people every three or five times, and the grass people endured it again and again, and they didn't let them bully ......"
Lu Sheng's heart was overjoyed, it turned out that this guy still knew that the sky was high and the earth was thick, and it seemed that he would not cause any trouble, so it couldn't be better.
He couldn't help but brush his beard, shook his head and said: "It doesn't hurt to become a master only if you have to endure hardship, it's okay." Oh, is that man still bullying you? Don't worry, the old man is in charge for you. ”
Qin Shaoyou shook his head and said, "It's not necessary. ”
Lu Sheng let out a long sigh again, this guy was abused and addicted, he refused to stand up for him, God is pitiful, it seems that this guy will not cause any trouble in the future.
But Qin Shaoyou's next words made Lu Sheng stunned.
"Because later, the grass people sued him three times, not only did they ask the officials of the pro-people parents to beat him severely, but even his son broke his leg."
"Sue the three cases...... "It seems, it's a little familiar, why is it three cases."
Yes, Lu Sheng suddenly remembered, a few days ago, there was an earth-shattering incident in Luoyang, saying that a teenager beat the drum three times in a row to voice grievances, no one before or after, shocked the government and the opposition, this matter is known far and near, even Lu Sheng is not exempt from vulgarity.
At that time, there were occasionally some official gatherings, and everyone couldn't help but laugh when they talked about the Luoyang order, saying that this county order really had enough pockets, and they actually let a Diao people play tricks.
So many people consciously included the young man who complained into the list of Diao Min, all in all, this kind of Diao Min must be causing trouble, if they encounter it, they must be severely punished.
He...... It's that Diao Min......
Lu Sheng was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time. His eyes were slightly moist, so he raised his chin a little higher to avoid losing his temper. His eyes were forty-five degrees into the sky, looking directly at the sun, and the sunlight shone into his eyes, causing the moisture in his eyes to gather into a pool of solid tears, which slid down the corners of his eyes.
Finally, he calmed down, and then glanced at Qin Shaoyou very meaningfully, put his hand on his back very affectionately, and said: "Qin Shaoyou, you should take the word, the old man is your elder, and he will work for him, you won't be surprised, right?" ”
Qin Shaoyou said gratefully: "I beg the elder to give me the word." ”
Lu Sheng endured his grief, shook his head with his beard, and said with a smile: "Harmony is precious in everything, it is better to call harmony, Qin Hezhi, how about it?" ”
………………………………………………
In the evening, the Ziwei Palace was shrouded in the glow, all the doors and windows of the temple were opened, and the glow fell into the hall, Wu Zetian leaned on the windowsill, staring at the peony flower garden outside the hall, the peony bloomed, whenever the peony was in full bloom, the fragrance of the peony permeated the entire Luoyang City, this is an intoxicating incense, Wu Zetian always leaned here at this time and groaned, thinking about many past things.
But today, her phoenix eyes fluttered, and she didn't think about the past, behind her, several eunuchs and palace people knelt on the ground, waiting for Wu Zetian's orders.
For a long time, Wu Zetian's lips opened slightly, and he said word by word: "Spread to the door, I heard that there is a young man in the market, Qin Shaoyou, full of economy, loyalty and filial piety, and he was recommended by Lu Sheng, the secretary of Honglu Temple, and he was appointed as an assistant teacher of the four schools to nourish education." ”
