Li Longji is not completely impressed with Li Linfu, but he is not deeply impressed, but he still remembers that he is a descendant of the clan and Jiang Jiao's nephew: "He is now the fifth rank prince Zhongyun, but you want him to be reappointed as the eighth rank imperial history?" ”

"His official position was obtained because of the first Chu Guogong, and now that the first Chu Guogong is dead, he should also return to the position where he should be."

Li Longji thought for a while and said, "Ah Jiang is dead, why do you want to kill his nephew, you are really so ruthless to me?" He has been the prince Zhongyun for a while, so he will be promoted to the prince of the country. ”

It was a bonus. Guozijian's deputy Si Ye, from the fourth grade, is in charge of the government of Confucianism, not only promoted, but also a little bit of real power.

Xiao Jiangyuan recalled Li Linfu's uncontrollable expression at that moment, and secretly looked forward to it. She gave him a chance today, and I don't know if he will be able to prove himself with his actions in the future. In the eyes of the prime minister of the dynasty, a brother slave who is incompetent even a lang official, how far can he go in the court in the future?

She was thinking about it, Bian Lingcheng hurriedly entered the palace to report: "Oh no, everyone, something happened!" ”

Xiao Jiangyuan's voice sank when he heard this: "Sort out your thoughts and speak well." ”

Bian Lingcheng hurriedly said "yes" before he continued: "Zhang Shangshu and Zhang Xianggong have fought!" ”

Zhang Xianggong is naturally Zhang Shuo, and this Zhang Shangshu refers to Zhang Jiazhen, who has just been summoned back to Beijing by Li Longji recently and served as the head of the household department.

It is now the twelfth year of Kaiyuan, according to the statistics of the Ministry of Households, since Yuwenrong covered the fields and persuaded farmers for three years, more than 800,000 households have been added to the country, and at the same time, a large amount of land has been naturalized with the population, and more than one million yuan of taxes have been obtained. This is great news for Li Longji, but at the same time, the workload of the household department has also increased, and Li Longji feels that the current household department is not capable enough. Thinking that Zhang Jiazhen was really shrewd and capable in the past, he summoned him back, but he didn't expect that a few days after he came back, there was an accident again.

——Also on this night, Li Longji personally arranged it at the banquet set up by the Middle School to wash the wind and wash the dust.

Li Longji didn't feel a little headache, so he heard another eunuch enter the report: "Qi Sage, the general of the left prison guard is triumphant, and the person is already outside the Daming Palace!" ”

The general of the right prison guard is Xiao Jiangyuan, and the general of the left prison guard is her sworn brother Yang Siqiao. In July, the Wuxi barbarians rebelled, and Li Longji sent Yang Siqiao to lead his troops to quell the rebellion. Yang Siqiao tried his hand as early as the early years of Kaiyuan, and he had won Li Longji's trust and affirmation, and now he has lived up to expectations, quickly quelled the chaos, and won very happy.

Li Longji was very happy, and as soon as he saw Yang Siqiao, he asked Zhang Jiuling to formulate: Jin Yang Siqiao was the general of the left prison guard, and he was given the rank of general of the auxiliary state. Then, he smiled at Xiao Jiangyuan and said, "Your righteous brother has been rising step by step for several years, why are you still in the same place?" ”

Xiao Jiangyuan said humbly: "My brother's promotion is because of military merits, which is natural and blameless. The minister is incompetent, so he can only be by everyone's side, and he will help a little in some small things, and it is normal not to be promoted for many years. ”

What's more, before today, her position was still the highest among the eunuchs since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and after today, although the new highest person has changed, she is still her brother-in-law, in fact, there is not much difference, and they are all contributing to the power of the eunuchs. Although she is not satisfied, she is not in a hurry, as long as her identity remains unchanged, it is a matter of time before she becomes an official.

Xiao Jiangyuan has no great achievements, and his rash promotion may attract the attention of the government and the opposition, which is indeed not as logical as Yang Sixuan, but this does not mean that Li Longji will not think of other ways to improve her true status.

Xiao Jiangyuan's kindness to Li Longji over the years, he still thought about it in his heart, and said: "You are arrogant." When the general becomes the general, I sleep in Fang'an, this is the merit of the general, no one can reach it, no one can compare. ”

Yang Siqiao also helped: "Exactly." If you are an old minister, you will never be able to do it, but the virtuous brother can be handy, never made a mistake, and everyone has been so praised, it is really the first person in the past. ”

Xiao Jiangyuan knows that Li Longji is not a cold-hearted person, whether it is his care or cooperation over the years, he will definitely see it in his eyes and take it to heart, although he rarely expresses it on weekdays. But she didn't expect that today, as ordinary as every day, he suddenly spoke. She didn't expect that he would use such a direct way of expression, and the words he said would be so weighty.

Xiao Jiangyuan has always had few emotional fluctuations, but tonight he was really moved. This means that her years of hard work have finally paid off, and it also means that Li Longji recognizes her value and significance as a eunuch, although this does not mean that Li Longji will give up letting her return to the identity of a woman because of this.

Xiao Jiangyuan seems to be at peace with what happens, but in fact it is not easy to be content, but tonight, she wants to taste this taste.

The weight of these words is indeed not light, and it can make Zhang Jiuling, who has been sitting quietly on the side and working peacefully, write a meal very accidentally, even when he heard that Zhang Jiazhen and Zhang Shuo were fighting, he, as a person who was introduced by Zhang Shuo as a fellow sect and vigorously promoted, did not react.

At this time, Zhang Jiuling had already prepared the book of Jin Feng Yang Siqiao. Li Longji looked at it, and only felt extremely satisfied: "It's getting late, and there is nothing else to do here, so you can go with Bian Lingshi for dinner, and then go to Zhongshu Province for the night." ”

Zhang Jiuling thanked Li Longji for his carefulness, and saluted Xiao Jiangyuan and Yang Siqiao to each other, and then withdrew from the Zichen Palace, without saying a word during the whole process, as if he hadn't heard anything.

After Zhang Jiuling left, Li Longji couldn't help sighing: "What an unusual character, upright but gentle, not sharp and tough, how did you get together with Zhang Xianggong?" In addition to Wencai, Zhang Xianggong can talk to him, otherwise, how can Zhang Xianggong compare with him? ”

No matter how much you escape, it was useless, Li Longji finally asked Xiao Jiangyuan to go to the academy in person, and no matter what, he had to let Zhang Shuo and Zhang Jiazhen promise that the two of them would live in peace in the future, but it was okay on the surface. It's really not good, he learns the method of Emperor Zhongzong, and simply lets the two of them become brothers in the same sect.

Xiao Jiangyuan turned Li Longji's words into a faint threat, and now Zhang Shuo and Zhang Jiazhen are honest.

After Xiao Jiangyuan left, Zhang Jiuling walked out from behind the screen - he had just come to inform Zhang that in the future, Xiao Jiangyuan should be treated with respect, supplemented by keeping a distance. Why, exactly, as a scholar in the middle school, in order to ensure that the things around the Son of Heaven would not at least leak out of his mouth, he refused to say anything.

Zhang said that he didn't understand at first, but he still did it, although he was the one who was beaten, even if it was in front of the Son of Heaven or even above the court, he was justified.

Zhang Jiazhen felt that Xiao Jiangyuan tonight was different from what he had seen before, which made him involuntarily want to be obedient, anyway, it was right to listen to her.

This is the end of a farce, but the laughter does not stop. Li Longji's praise for Xiao Jiangyuan gradually spread under the instruction of Xiao Jiangyuan, Yang Sixuan, and even Li Longji himself.

The front court was very lively, and the harem was unexpectedly quiet.

Since the defeat of the battle for Shanggong, Queen Wang locked herself in Penglai Pavilion and never went out again. When Li Longji heard about this, he was a little worried, so he went to Penglai Pavilion to see her a few times. But every time she passed, Queen Wang either led all the literate people around her to study medical books, or let Princess Qingyang enter the palace and try all kinds of folk fertility remedies for her.

So, Li Longji didn't want to go. One is very stressful, and the other is ...... He felt guilty when he saw the Queen's enthusiasm and almost madness.

- because he never gave up the idea of abolishing the aftermath.

This year, the opportunity finally came.

Queen Wang has not been pregnant for many years, and she has tried all the methods she can try, so no matter how much she presses, she has not changed the result in any way, not to mention that Li Longji does not come much. In desperation, she wrote to Li Longji, asking him to allow her brother Wang Shouyi to enter the palace to meet and express comfort.

Li Longji did not refuse Queen Wang, and Wang Shouyi entered and exited the palace again in a grand manner. Under the determination of Queen Wang, Wang Shouyi invited a monk with the Dharma name of Mingwu, who said that he was helping the queen to meditate, but in fact he was practicing the technique of suppressing victory, hoping that this last method that had to be done could make their wish come true.

Na Mingwu helped Queen Wang do a ritual of "sacrificing to the North and South Dou", and then handed over the piece of thunderbolt wood engraved with the words "heaven", "earth" and "Li Longji" used in the ritual to Queen Wang, let her wear it on her body, and then recite it according to the rune silk silk silk placed with the thunderbolt wood.

It's a pity that the good news has not been obtained, and the bad news has arrived.

Li Longji already knew everything that happened in Penglai Pavilion, so he took the opportunity and seized the stolen goods.

But there is one thing that Li Longji didn't expect, and he didn't expect that his wife could really be so mad!

- The spell written on the rune is: Wear this child, be like the queen of heaven!
