Chapter Ninety-Six: Recognition of Competence
Emperor Changping said half-loudly: "Feelings, Mingyue, this kid regarded knowing the news of the Empress Dowager of Great Xia in advance as a tool to make money, and he is really the best national teacher in the past." ”
The man in the shadows was silent. Such words are not something he needs to receive as a courtier. Silence is best. However, he was speechless in his heart about Qin Mingyue's behavior.
Emperor Changping sighed and said: "Although this is a small matter, from this small matter, it can be seen that Mingyue should have obtained the true inheritance of Shen Guoshi." Moreover, her divination ability is very high, although she can't surpass Shen Guoshi, but she is still much stronger than the two senior brothers in front of her. ”
"How old is she, and how long has she been studying with Shen Guoshi? Well, according to what you said, a large part of Shen Guoshi's recent time has been spent in retreat, how much time can you have to teach her? Why is her talent so good? However, it is possible to think about it. Qin Mingyue is not an ordinary girl. She is a child personally selected by the Xuan Turtle Jade Pan. I remember that since I was not in charge of the government, and when the Queen Mother was still listening to the government, Shen Guoshi asked the Xingxing Tower and the officials of the Great Zhou to start paying attention to the right children, and sent those who met the conditions to the Xuangui Jade Plate to choose. ”
However, no one could have imagined that this thing, once it started, would last for decades. It wasn't until I started to be pro-government that I didn't choose to come out, and later, when I was in power, I intensified my efforts and began to search. However, decades have passed, and there is still no one who can satisfy the Xuangui Jade Plate. Even, Shen Guoshi was a little disappointed. There was no way, so he chose two of the children who were gifted with divination as his disciples. ”
"However, because these two disciples have not been recognized by the Xuangui Jade Plate, they can't learn the essence of the National Teacher's lineage, although they have been carefully taught by Shen Guoshi for so many years, they can also take charge of their own, but they can't inherit the highest inheritance of the National Teacher's lineage. Not to mention that he is as exhaustive as Shen Guoshi, he can't even make a comprehensive calculation of the navigation business for Shen Guoshi's family. ”
"Seeing that I am also getting older, Shen Guoshi has already become a great-grandfather. However, the candidate for this future disciple has not yet been found, not only Shen Guoshi is anxious, but even I am also anxious. Even, the court began to be unstable. Our Great Zhou has always relied on the support of the national teacher to maintain its national strength surrounded by Daxia, Dayu and Dashang. If the national teacher is broken, the Great Zhou will inevitably follow the turmoil. ”
"However, this kind of thing, it's useless for us to be anxious, and if we can't get the recognition of the Xuangui Jade Plate, it is impossible to elect the next national teacher. Just when we were all a little desperate, we didn't expect that in the capital, in the Xungui Mansion, a fourteen-year-old girl was actually the person the national teacher was looking for. When the national teacher brought Qin Mingyue to the Xuangui Jade Plate, I really didn't have much hope. However, I didn't expect that the person we have been looking for for decades is really this inconspicuous little girl. ”
"Although I feel a little unbeautiful in my heart that the future national teacher is a female national teacher, this is also the person we have been looking for for so many years, as long as the national teacher continues to be inherited, it is better than anything else. Therefore, from the very beginning, I did not have any hope for this little girl at all. I just thought that it would be good that she could continue the inheritance. ”
"However, it has only been a long time for Mingyue, a little girl, to give me such a surprise. She actually has such a powerful divination ability. can actually predict the violent death of the Empress Dowager of Great Xia in advance. The political turmoil in Great Xia. Moreover, she actually has a very strong ability to govern, and she took measures in advance, so that our Da Zhou took advantage of this matter. ”
"Hey, speaking of which, I'm too conceited. How can you forget that Mingyue is the person chosen by the Xuangui Jade Plate. National teachers of all generations, where are there stupid people, ordinary people? The national teachers of all dynasties were chosen by the Xuangui Jade Plate. The Xuan Tortoise Jade Plate is an artifact, beyond mortals, and it will not be ordinary people who are naturally selected. ”
"Looks like I'm going to change my mind a little bit too. I can't look at Mingyue, a little girl, with ordinary eyes. We must officially treat her as a future national teacher. Well, even a calm person like Shen Guoshi can hand over the Star Picking Tower and the government to Mingyue, how can I still be limited to common sense. ”
Emperor Changping babbled such a lot, and the people in the shadows just listened quietly. The emperor has been in power for so many years, and some of his heartfelt words have always been said to him. This is because of his special status. It is also because he has always been the most loyal and tight-mouthed. He would certainly not say these things to anyone. Nor would he answer the words of the emperor. Because how to decide the matter, the power has always been in the hands of the emperor.
The people in the shadows saw that Emperor Changping had already made a decision and was about to withdraw from the main hall.
Emperor Changping spoke again: "I am already this age. I have long felt that I am looking at people, employing people, and dealing with government affairs very powerful. However, looking at it this way, it is still far from the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother was already sick like this, but she still saw that Mingyue was extraordinary, so she gave these gifts. Nothing else, that set of jade jewelry, but when the emperor was there, it was given to the queen mother, and the queen mother cherished it very much, even my sister Princess Ping'an begged for it, she didn't give it, but this time it was given to Mingyue, which shows that she has high hopes for Mingyue. ”
The man in the shadow was stunned for a moment, still keeping his head down, and did not say a word.
Emperor Changping thought for a moment and said, "You step back first." I know what to do. You can't waste talent. ”
The man in the shadows hurriedly retreated.
Then Emperor Changping summoned the eunuchs who served in front of the emperor, and the officials of Xuanzhongshu Province came over and drafted a holy decree.
Qin Mingyue was still talking to her master Shen Guoshi, and the subordinates of the Star Picking Tower came to announce that there was a holy decree coming, and they asked Miss Mingyue to accept it.
Shen Guoshi was not surprised at all, and said to Qin Mingyue: "Mingyue, you prepare and accept the order." It must be this reward from the Queen Mother that attracted the attention of the emperor. And then look into some of the things you've been doing during this time. I must know that I have already entrusted you with all the affairs of the Star Picking Tower. The emperor has always been unproductive. He knows that you have such a talent, how can you not use it? It must be to reward you with an official position, let you go to the court to participate in politics, and work for him. But I'm the first to say the ugly things. You can't forget that you are my apprentice, and you are the future national teacher of my Star Tower, and you have to continue to bear the burden of this Star Tower. We're just getting down to business. Do not pllow other people's land and waste your own's field. ”
Looking at Shen Guoshi's serious appearance, Qin Mingyue was really speechless. Master, don't you just want to continue to be lazy when you say so much?
