Xiao Yue looked excited, his face was slightly red, and he decided to pour some cold water on him, "Master Wen, this matter is not as simple as you think. ”

"Xiaoyue, what do you mean?" asked Wen Youyou, puzzled.

Xiao Yue gave him a detailed analysis, "I just said that the name is not right, you just made a splash in the household department, and you went to take care of the affairs of the ministry again, will you make people think that your appetite is too big and your hand is too long?"

Wen Youyou calmed down for a moment and said to Xiaoyue: "Actually, I have also considered this issue, but I am not worried about how the government and the opposition view me, as long as the emperor does not suspect me, I am not afraid." ”

"Then how do you know that the emperor won't be suspicious?" Xiao Yue slowly poured a cup of tea, thinking repeatedly about the loopholes in Wen Youyou's decision.

"In fact, the last time the emperor summoned me to inquire about the policy of political reform in the household department, I frankly explained to His Majesty that I was actually not suitable to work in the household department. ”

"Oh, what did the emperor say. Xiao Yue refilled Wen Youyou with another cup of tea, turned around and handed it to him.

Wen Youyou took the teacup mechanically, and drank tea without any thoughts, "The emperor thought I was modest, and lured me with profits, and asked me to do a good job in the household department, openly and secretly hinting at me, the household department Shangshu is estimated to be about to be replaced, and he will only let his cronies take charge of this extremely important department." ”

He lowered his head and smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "However, I believe he will soon know that I am not modest, and that it is you, Satsuki, not me, who is suitable to work in Tobe." ”

"What are you talking about?" Xiao Yue said unhappily, "I'm not an official of the imperial court, what am I going to do?"

"So this is the problem of the British officials, the capable cannot occupy their positions, and people like Xiaoyue are buried by the current system of appointing officials in the ministry. The more Wen Youyou spoke, the more indignant he became.

Xiao Yue hurriedly grabbed him, "Hey, don't say it, I don't want to be an official anymore, don't take me as an example of this matter." In this way, Wen Youyou, you go back and write a draft first, and I will help you suggest a few points, and then you take it and go to your father, if he agrees, you will go and hand over this note. ”

"Well, what Xiao Yue said is very true, I also need to consult my father, after all, he is old and senior, and many views are also unique, such as the proposal of our treasury bond this time, he is also very supportive. Wen Youyou was very happy to see that Xiao Yue agreed to his proposal.

"However, I want to explain that if you go to work in the Ministry of Officials, I will not care about the affairs of the Ministry of Households, and don't come to me when the time comes. "Xiao Yue doesn't want to follow Wen Youyou deeper and deeper in this court, she has her own plans.

"Well, of course, but if I go to serve in the Ministry of Officials, will you help me with the affairs of the Ministry of Officials?" Wen Youyou said very sincerely, although he felt that he was not a last resort, he still didn't want to ask Xiao Yue for help.

"Of course I will help, who made me your master!" Xiao Yue picked up the hand stove given by Wen Youyou, and said with a smile while rubbing the auspicious cloud pattern carved on it with her fingers, "You go back and draft the reform of the government officials, my suggestion is eight words, 'Know people well, make the best use of their talents, in fact, it is very good for the officials to do these eight words.'" ”

"Knowing people well, people can make the best use of their talents?" After Wen Youyou listened, he repeatedly read these eight words in his heart, "Wonderful! Wonderful! Only knowing people can be good, and only good people can make the best use of their talents! Xiaoyue, how did you come up with it?"

Xiao Yue smiled wryly, thinking in her heart that this is what I thought, I am not so talented, but she said: "I also have an idea, according to what you just said, I think of countermeasures, but I say this easily, but it is difficult to do." ”

Wen Youyou also felt that the task was arduous, he sighed and said: "Yes, imagining and doing are two different things, then I'll go back and draft the notebook, and show it to you when the time comes, and I'll go to my father again." ”

Wen Youyou is also a man of action, and after speaking, he rushed home, and even forgot about the shawl.

In fact, Xiao Yue wanted to suggest that he stay in Yingyue Xuan to write a recital, because now it was dark and it was snowing heavily, but Wen Youyou didn't give her a chance to keep it at all, so she rushed into the heavy snow.

In fact, Wen Youyou also wanted to stay in Yingyue Xuan's study, and he also wanted to spend more time with Xiao Yue, but he didn't want to rely on Xiao Yue for everything, so he decided to rely on his own intelligence to complete this twist and turn as much as possible.

The next day, the sky cleared, but the roof and the ground were covered with a thick layer of snow.

Xu Chengchang and Steward Huang got up early in the morning, and they cleared the snow from the ground in the backyard and front yard to clear a path.

After Xiaoyue got up and freshened up, after pushing open the door and seeing the white world outside, she clamored to go out to see the snow.

Yun Yan put on a thick winter coat for Xiao Yue, and also put on a new fox fur cloak, Xiao Yue ran out of the house without even tying her belt, and she didn't take a good look at the snow scene when she gave birth last year.

At this time, the trees in the courtyard were covered with a white coat, and the ground seemed to be covered with a thick white carpet. The whole world has been transformed into a palace of whitewashed jade.

"Wow, it's so beautiful" Satsuki reveled in this snow-covered world, and then couldn't wait to run to the back garden to watch the beautiful snow scene.

On the way, she did not take the path cleared by Xu Chengchang, but went to the grass, stepped on the soft snow, and then carefully heard the creaking sound under her feet.

Yun Yan followed her without leaving an inch, for fear that if she was not careful, she would break her body.

Xiao Yue suddenly looked at the corner of the courtyard, where there were more than a dozen red plums, as bright as rouge, reflecting the color of the snow, revealing the fragrance, faintly smelling a cold fragrance, Xiao Yue ran to the snowdrift, picked the snow falling on the red plum with her hands, and licked it with her tongue, this pure snow actually has a unique fragrance and cold air gushing out on her tongue.

"Wow, this is good, I've heard that this snow is used to make tea, but it's delicious. Xiao Yue beckoned to Yun Yan excitedly, "Quick, let Linglong come to that jar, let's pick some snow and use it to make tea." ”

Yun Yan saw that her fingers were red from the snow, and hurriedly handed her the hand stove, "Warm it up quickly, if it freezes, it will be troublesome." Let Linglong do these rough work, Childe pays attention to his body, this snow looks good, but it's too cold outside, let's go to the front hall, eat something to cushion the stomach first. ”

Although Xiao Yue still wanted to continue to spread wild in the snow, her stomach was already growling, so she had no choice but to follow Yun Yan to the front hall for breakfast first.

This Linglong doesn't like to deal with people, but cooking is really getting better and better, although this breakfast only has fish porridge, pancakes and buns, a few small dishes, these simple foods, but they are all exquisite and delicious.

Xiaoyue was full of food, felt full of energy again, and wanted to go out to watch the snow, but before she could reach the door, she met Mu Shi.

"At this time, Mu Shi, don't you accompany your family to the morning court, what are you doing here?" asked Xiao Yue curiously.

"This is my son-in-law for you. Mu Shi handed over a letter, and without saying much, he took his leave and left.

Xiao Yue held a thick stack of letters, wondering what was written here, so thick.
