Chapter 542: Great Drought in the Northwest

Shangguan Yan really wanted to ask the little eunuch a few words, but when he thought that the little eunuch said it softly, he might not necessarily listen to it.

And looking at his appearance of not waking up at the moment, Shangguan Yan felt as if he was thinking too much.

If you ask this little eunuch, it's better not to ask. What insight can he have? That's it, why don't you post an imperial list?

So I couldn't help but think of He Yulai, but unfortunately he wasn't enough to be trusted. Shangguan Yan is not stupid, it can be seen that he is very utilitarian.

While this may not seem like a bad thing at the moment, it will not be a good thing in the long run.

Shangguan Yan thought so, and the thoughts in his heart were reincarnated several times again. Suddenly looking not far away, he fell into a dead silence again.

The little eunuch was woken up, and was about to help Shangguan Yan get up and walk to the dormitory, but he stopped him. Immediately, I don't know why I fell asleep again.

Looking at the square rice paper that was pressed to the edge, Shangguan Yan couldn't help but dip the ink and pen again. After pondering, he looked into the distance again.

Finally, the first word fell on the paper - "I".

Shangguan Yan mentioned the drought in the northwest when he went to court, but the ministers only remained silent when they heard this. Shangguan Xi wanted to say something, but was stopped by Su Shu, the master of Zhongshu on the side, with his eyes.

In the end, Shangguan Yan announced in front of everyone that he intended to post the imperial list with the intention of recruiting capable people to solve this matter.

After going down, Shangguan Xi was stopped by Su Shu. Immediately, the two walked to a remote corner of the palace.

"I wonder why my father-in-law stopped me? Father-in-law should know that this is an excellent opportunity for this king to show off in front of his father. ”

Shangguan Xi said, his face was a little unkind. This is indeed a good opportunity, because Shangguan Ling has just gone to deal with the flooding in the south of the Yangtze River.

If he can handle the drought in the northwest beautifully, he will naturally not be criticized. Besides, there should be no one available at the moment.

How can this opportunity slip away so easily? Shangguan Xi naturally had to try his best to catch it, but he couldn't give up on this.

As a result, the expression that looked at Su Shu became more complicated. Su Shu understood that although he was Shangguan Xi's father-in-law, he was several levels lower in terms of status.

After all, Shangguan Xi is the prince and the prince, and he just got the reputation of a cheap father-in-law because he married his daughter to Shangguan Xi and became a princess.

Therefore, the dissatisfaction with Shangguan Xi can only be humbled for now. As for the rebuttal, I don't dare.

But admonition, yes, yes. After all, Su Shu also hoped that Shangguan Xi would be able to keep his sanity no matter when.

And no, I was carried away by the possibility of a moment. Mu Tianyue's words, and then Su Wan'er also asked the people below to bring it to him.

Therefore, now he feels that he needs to persuade Shangguan Xi more rationally. lest he make some wrong choices, or wrong decisions.

"Now is the time when the situation in the imperial court is turbulent, and I think it is better to stay in the capital. What's more, the news over there in Jiangnan is about to be processed. They will be able to come back soon.

If Shangguan Ling comes back but you are not in the capital, won't you give up the position of the prince to someone at that time?

And whether it is true or not, Mu Tianyue's words to Tao Yanyan show that it is now time to choose the prince. ”

The next day, a list was posted in an alley on the outskirts of Beijing. After the guards posted it, many people gathered in front of them.
