Chapter 328: Entering the Cabinet
Qin Yining tilted her head and endured his fierce kiss like a storm, only to feel that his hard arm was about to break her waist, she could hear the dull and rough panting in her throat similar to the struggle of a trapped beast, she could only stretch out her arms and wrap her arms around his neck, her fingers lingering in his hair to soothe.
Xiao Xiao's kiss gradually became slow and gentle, as if to apologize for the rough behavior just now, he used the tip of his tongue to describe the red and swollen lips that he ravaged, and when the lips parted, he cherished her in his arms.
"Sister Yi'er, you are so good, I have long recognized that you are mine. If someone suddenly tells me that I can't have you in the future, I'm afraid I'll do things that I can't control. ”
Qin Yining leaned on Xiao Xiao's shoulder and rubbed him like a cat.
"No, it won't. You believe me, I can solve this matter, let me think about it first. ”
"Good. I know you're smart and can definitely think of a way, just tell me what you need me to do, and I'll cooperate with you. ”
His caution made Qin Yining feel heartwarming and sad, his current situation is so difficult, her own affairs must be handled well, don't let him bother anymore.
"Lord Wang, Lord Wang!"
Outside the closed door, Huzi's voice suddenly came: "The Holy Lord has arrived!" You're ready to take over! ”
Qin Yining was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly withdrew from Xiao Xiao's embrace, looking left and right for a place where he could hide.
With a finger on the side of the screen, Qin Yining understood, and immediately ran to the folding screen of black lacquered mahogany.
As soon as she stood still, she heard a hearty laugh coming from outside the front hall door.
Xiao Xiao pushed open the door of the house, ordered someone to lift the warm curtain, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted, "Holy Lord! The arrival of the Holy Lord is really called the Humble House Pengsheng! Why don't you tell Weichen, it's good to prepare for it. ”
The face was respectful, but Xiao Xiao's heart was full of doubts, he had just returned Li Helan to the saint, although he did not say anything serious, but the saint's temper was afraid that it would be very embarrassing. Why did it take so little time for people to come to the door? Is it resentment, or is it guilt? Or is it dissatisfied with him and has other calculations?
"Brother Xian, please get up quickly." Li Qitian put his hands on the owl, walked into the front hall hand in hand with him, sat in the first place, and said with a smile, "I will be in front of the elders when you are here, otherwise it will be in the study, and I don't want to ask before I know that you are here." This front hall is very cold, don't catch a cold. ”
This may seem ordinary, but it is actually full of deep meaning and temptation.
Li Qitian may not know the inside story, but he must know that the old lady is visiting, and finally left with a scolding grin, and was chased out of the street by the big black dog.
"Thank you for your concern." Xiao Xiao stood aside with his head bowed and said respectfully: "The guests just came to the house, and they have just left, and the minister is going to chat with his grandmother." ”
"I see." Li Qitian bowed.
Li Guanwen had already respectfully brought the tea up at this time.
Li Qitian took the tea and sent Li Guanwen and other entourages to retreat.
When there was no one else in the room, he smiled and said, "Brother Xian, sit down and talk, why should your own brother be so restrained." ”
"Thank you." He bowed and sat down on a circle chair beside him.
Li Qitian said: "Tomorrow is the big court meeting, I came here on purpose, I have something to say to the virtuous brother." ”
Qin Yining, who was hiding behind the screen, held his breath and didn't dare to make a sound, and when he heard Li Qitian say this, he immediately frowned in confusion.
Li Qitian took a sip of tea, and said with a pleasant face: "Brother Xian pacified the rebellion in the south for me, I am very moved in my heart, and I am very grateful. ”
"What did the Holy One say?" Xiao Xiao said with a big grin: "You know the minister's heart the most, the minister is lazy, the most impatient with those troubles, at the beginning of the following of the saint to fight the world, in order to one day in the future can live a good life of eating and drinking spicy food and nothing to worry about, now the minister's day is what he is looking forward to, everything the minister has, is also given by the saint, the minister is too late to be grateful, where will you blame?" Seriously, if there is no saint, where is the glory and wealth of my dawn today? The promise of the saint, what you promised when we fought the world has been fulfilled until now, and the ministers are grateful. ”
When Li Qitian heard this, his face was a little moved, "Alas! Looking back on the past, it still makes my heart palpitate......"
Qin Yining, who was behind the screen, listened to Li Qitian begin to reminisce about the past and play the emotional card, and couldn't help but secretly praise Xiao Fangcai's answer.
This is the first time she has seen the way she gets along with Li Qitian, and she finally understands why Li Qitian is so jealous of the Xiaoxiao, but he didn't tear his face immediately.
On the one hand, Li Qitian may not have the confidence to tear his face with Xiao Xiao. On the other hand, it is also the result of the owl being low and small everywhere, he shows weakness everywhere, and will timely evoke the memories of the two of them in the past bloody era, which will not only relax Li Qitian's vigilance, but also make Li Qitian occasionally think of their past relationship, and he will have some concerns when deciding on some things.
It's just that Qin Yining is more distressed about Xiao Xiao. She really doesn't want her man to be bullied, but people are swordsmen and I am fish, and now there is no other way.
Li Qitian recalled the past years, and also remembered some of his dead brothers, stood up, patted Xiao Xiao's shoulder, and said, "Why don't I know your temper and temperament? However, you are a talented person, and I am reluctant to bury your talents, so I let you rest during this time, and I have also observed for a while, and after thinking about it, I decided to let you enter the cabinet, become a cabinet scholar, and be my right and left hand. ”
Due to absorbing the disadvantages of the dictatorship of the prime minister of the Northern Hebei State, the Great Zhou Dynasty has abolished the prime minister system and changed it to a cabinet system.
The composition of the cabinet consists of one chief assistant, one second assistant, and a number of other scholars, a total of three to seven people to exercise power. When it is time to deliberate, the cabinet will deliberate and finally vote to decide, with two votes for the first assistant, one vote for the second assistant and one vote for each of the other scholars.
Li Qitian said earnestly: "Brother Xian, you are the one who follows me to fight the world, I don't hide anything from you, don't look at me sitting on the throne now, but how many people are convinced, then it is not accurate." These courtiers have formed factions among themselves, and they are respectful to me on the surface, but in fact they have their own thoughts.
"For example, let's talk about the current cabinet, the current cabinet chief, that is the widow of the Northern Hebei ministers, highly respected, and very prestigious in the previous dynasty, if I want to have a good relationship with the Northern Hebei ministers and make them obey me, then you have to be careful. The second assistant Zhou Tao is okay, that is my father-in-law, and he is his own person.
"But now things have taken a turn for the better, the first assistant is getting older and rarer, and he has been on the fold of telling the old, I have been gracious, the first assistant is vacant, naturally the second assistant is on top, and there is a lack of one person in the cabinet, you are my cronies, you have one vote after entering the cabinet, plus the first assistant will be my father-in-law, he has two votes, and the two of you add up to three votes, you can suppress the other two old ministers of Beiji. When the time comes, what will be decided, then it is not up to our brothers to have the final say? ”
