267 Harem
Liuhuo was stunned, and all the officials in the hall were stunned, everyone looked at Daydream in disbelief, and they didn't understand his serious expression.
Liuhuo thought for a while and said, "Say it, I hope you didn't joke with me, I hope you don't force me to send you away..."
Daydream sighed deeply, "My lord, you haven't handled official business for a year, although you assigned all official duties before leaving, and also gave us enough authorization, but some of the authorizations you can't give us..."
"When you were in Cangmang Mountain, we Peishui received three letters asking for help one after another, some from the royal family of Chu State, some from Wengang, and one from Cangmang City, and these things were more urgent than one another. These things are not in our hands..."
"The royal family of Chu is going to give you the title of king, the king of wealth. There are so many things to cover, and it involves the adjustment of Peishui's strategy for the next ten years or even decades, do you expect us to decide?"
"How can we be allowed to do this kind of direction-pointing work?"
Daydream coughed lightly and regrouped his thoughts.
"The other is the letter of help from Wengang and Cangmancheng, one is your eldest brother, the other is your friend for many years, and we only have 50,000 troops to use, how to choose? This involves the problem of our Peishui forces infiltrating in that direction in the future..."
"This kind of choice should not be made by us as courtiers... Thankfully, the Mistress came out at the most critical moment, and it was Suzaku-sama who took over this difficult decision, and if it weren't for Suzaku-sama, I don't know how many days we'd have to argue about..."
"It is estimated that a few days later, General Zhongli will be gone for a long time, and the vast city has been broken..."
"At the most critical moment, only your loved ones can help you make decisions, and no one else can do it. Liu Lao should be made by Liu Lao when he is here, and Liu Lao is not in Suzaku to make the decision... But now, you have brought us two more women, may I ask your lordship, who should we listen to in this situation in the future? Listen to Suzaku-sama's "Cloud Covering the Moon?" or "Beautiful Girl?"
"If you don't give us a ranking, the government decree will crash in the future, what will you do with our courtiers? I will ask you to set a standard for daily support expenses, and I also hope that your lordship can quietly rank these women..."
Daydream took a few deep breaths, releasing the suffocation in his chest, and he had already scolded the flowing fire hundreds of times in his heart. The secular emperor understands the truth at all, how can he break it up and crumple it when he gets to the flowing fire, doesn't this force me to offend people.
"My lord, to rank these women, it will involve the inheritance of future generations, who will we inherit Peishui in the future? Who knows how many children you will have in the future? The tragedy of the Wengang turmoil is just around the corner, just two princes will kill Wengang into ruins, do you want this scene to be repeated in Dawang City in the future?"
"Also, my lord, you can't guarantee that you won't find a woman in the future, right? In the future, if there are more and more women in your harem, the problems I mentioned are real problems, and they are problems that you can't avoid at all..."
"Including your bedtime records, it must also be sorted out from now on, in case one day a woman carries a child and says that it is your illegitimate child, we must at least have a reference as courtiers..."
Daydreaming was ruthless this time, and Liuhuo was speechless when he said this, and even made Liuhuo blush.
The fire is not stupid, and the people in the hall are not stupid, these awakened people are very smart, in fact, halfway through the daydream, they have already realized the crux of the problem.
Daydreams are rough, but they are not rough. And it's really a very serious problem, when Suzaku was a woman before, everyone didn't think of these complicated problems, but now that there are more women, many problems can't be avoided.
Flowing fire is called an embarrassment, and he can't refute it at all if he daydreams, so he can only stumble and say.
"Isn't it? My sons and daughters I can't tell the difference?"
Daydream went crazy on the spot, "My lord, can you tell the difference, can we tell the difference?" Can you promise that you will never leave the Great King City in the future, but you still have to promise that you will never find a new woman in the future?"
"I know that adults have a long life that we can't have, but that's just a long life, and you're not immortal, so these questions can only be said to be too urgent, you can't say that he doesn't exist?"
"And you have to think about it, the longer the conflict is suppressed, the greater the intensity in the future, the two sons of Lin Miao, the king of Shanyin, but the strength accumulated for decades can greatly damage the vitality of the destruction of the Sanyin Kingdom, what about your children?
Speaking of which, Daydream knelt on the ground, not saying a word, and his face was full of expressions at your disposal.
Liuhuo really can't refute it, he suddenly feels that he is a very incompetent leader, these civil and military follow me, it seems that he has really suffered a lot over the years. Why are you so naïve, why can't you even think about such a question?
In fact, there is no need for Liuhuo to blame himself, in his more than thirty years of life, except for cultivation is cultivation, he has no idea of fighting for hegemony at all. Even the current Peishui, which has been pushed by fate all the way to this point.
Although in the past ten years, Liuhuo has had the mentality of some superiors, but he is still a grassroots one in his bones, and he is still an awakened person.
Many politicians have to think about the issues that he has never pondered in his heart.
After thinking about it for a long time, Liuhuo looked up at everyone, and then at daydreaming. Everyone didn't dare to look directly into the eyes of the flowing fire, and everyone knew that this topic was embarrassing, and everyone wanted to save some face for the flowing fire.
Finally, Flowing Fire smiled bitterly and pulled up the daydream that was kneeling on the ground.
"Forget it, don't make such a bitter expression, you want to be a martyr? You scholars, this is the stinky problem, obviously for my good, but you want to get the same as the oil pot under the knife mountain, as if you don't show how loyal you are... Flower intestines..."
Daydream finally breathed a sigh of relief, he looked at Liuhuo's relaxed and somewhat embarrassed expression, and knew that today's level was passed safely, and he won the gamble again.
"Okay, let's not worry about this problem, Suzaku is the most familiar with our Peishui, and in the future, the inner house includes administrative matters, everyone still has to listen to her opinion... As for the use in the inner house, let's let Suzaku take the idea, this is a woman's business, and we men don't get involved..."
"As for the daydream... That one... The things recorded, I think forget it, Lao Tzu doesn't bother, and he doesn't want to get thousands of eight hundred women, so it's not so complicated..."
Speaking of this, Liuhuo smiled bitterly, "You guys, don't think about it. The matter of Yun Shayue and Mei Jiao Niang, I will tell you in detail when I have a chance, the things here are very complicated, but they are not what you think... Do you really think I'm fascinated?"
The self-deprecation of the flowing fire drew laughter from everyone in the hall, and the stone in the hearts of the civil officials finally fell to the ground. Although Lord Liuhuo didn't say it explicitly, the pattern of Suzaku being the main and the other two ladies being the second was settled.
The later deliberations are much easier, Daydream is a person who goes down the steps, he will not be stupid to follow the flow of fire, on the contrary, there are more and more things to cooperate with later.
Gradually, the sky in the east had turned white, and everyone's eyes were darkened, until the rooster crowed three times, and the fire ordered the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
"Okay, it's all dawning, let's take a rest, eat some breakfast, and then let's talk about it again..."
The flowing fire proposed to rest, and Daydream was the first to run out to release the water, which could choke him enough for half a night, and when he got to the toilet and cleaned it for a quarter of an hour, he walked out with ease.
Daydream washed his face in the copper basin brought by the maid, and when the soft towel rubbed against his face, his tired mood was relieved a lot, and his whole spirit seemed much better.
Just as Daydream was about to return to the hall, a woman suddenly walked from the corner of the verandah, standing in front of Daydream and bowing deeply.
"Tonight's incident, thank you Prime Minister Bai..."
As soon as he daydreamed of seeing people, he immediately straightened his clothes and returned the favor deeply.
"Suzaku has a trust, and his subordinates dare to disobey his orders?"
Suzaku looked at the daydream and smiled lightly, "I have time to call your wife to come to the mansion to play, it's already very close, don't be estranged..."
"Definitely, definitely... My family is cheap, and I miss adults very much..."
Suzaku and Daydream smiled at each other and turned away, as if nothing had happened.
After a hearty breakfast, the busy meeting began again, and all the government affairs that had been piled up for a year had to be dealt with in one day today. There is no time, what the most lacking thing in the flowing fire now is time, on the front line of the falling grass slope, the Black Iron Legion and the Blizzard internal guards plus the hunters of the Shi family, the vanguard of these three families has begun to build permanent military camps and fortifications.
Not only that, on the mountain road in the snowy mountains, countless soldiers transferred back from the vast city were marching, and in the snow-capped mountains, the dark flow of people was like a long dragon with no end in sight.
Hou Wen and Shi Meng are about to come back, including Elder Shi Zhongxing, and it is estimated that in a month at the latest, there will be a secret meeting of the three highest-level families in the Great King City.
How to deal with the threats of the Yu family and the Li family, and how to ensure that the Yuan Qi Great Array does not fall into the hands of careerists, these are all to be discussed at the meeting.
But one thing is certain, war is inevitable, and everyone has given up hope of a peaceful settlement of the dispute, and even Master Xuan and Liu Lao, the two pacifists of the Tianshan Mountains, have also given up their illusions.
War is inevitable, and preparations for war are in full swing.
The current flow of fire, it is really impossible to delay too much time in internal affairs, and now all his energy is on Zhongzhou Mountain, on the inevitable battle after the completion of the big array.
And, of course, the mysterious secret that the professor told.
"Secret realm, secret realm, you must wait for me, the secret without tears is inside, how can Baoshan return empty-handed in front of him..."
