Chapter 682: See Your Majesty
After Chen Letian came out of Qingtian Pavilion, he immediately went to the palace, walked to the root of the imperial city, found a place where no one was around, changed his clothes, and changed into his aura imperial official uniform. The pig embroidered on the chest is a symbol of fairness and justice.
If there was Qin Tieniu standing next to him at this time, Qin Tieniu might not be able to recognize him at first glance.
When passing through the layers of checkpoints, he showed his waist card, the palace guards had seen ten imperial historians enter the palace before, and expected that Chen Letian, a celebrity, would inevitably enter the palace, but everyone saw this Chen Letian for the first time, so they couldn't help but look at it curiously. Then Chen Letian also smiled at them, and there was no shelf.
After following a eunuch for at least half an hour, Chen Letian was a little dizzy, and finally came to the outside of the imperial study.
"Chen Letian, the prime minister of Shudi, asked to see. ”
"Xuan. ”
Chen Letian hunched his body slightly, followed the eunuch and walked into the room where the emperor handled official business. Walking into the house, Chen Letian didn't dare to raise his head, lowered his head and saw the dragon robe in front of him, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "Grass people Chen Letian to meet Your Majesty." ”
"Aiqing, please get up. The emperor's voice came, and he didn't sound very old, and he was quite full of indifference.
Chen Letian stood up, still bowing down and looking down at His Majesty's dragon boots and robes: "Your Majesty, the grass people are late." ”
"You're wrong, you should call yourself a vassal. "The Emperor said.
Chen Letian hurriedly said: "Yes, the minister knows that he is wrong. ”
"Lift your head up and let me look at you. "The Emperor said.
Chen Letian raised his head and glanced at the emperor.
Both of them had one word in their minds at the same time, young.
In fact, the emperor is several years older than Chen Letian, but perhaps Chen Letian has been tempered in the army, so compared with the pampered emperor, it does not seem to be several years old, as if it is the same age.
"I've read all of Aiqing's information, and I appreciate you very much. The emperor smiled slightly.
Chen Letian only dared to glance at the emperor and lowered his eyes and continued to look at the ground, saying: "Your Majesty raises love, the minister wants to thank Your Majesty for your trust in the minister, the minister has never been an official, but he actually became the prime minister's imperial history, fortunately, there are ten imperial historians to guide the ministers so as not to do wrong things." ”
"I worked hard all the way, sat down and said. The eunuch brought a chair, and the emperor sat down first.
"The minister didn't dare, the minister was afraid. "How could Chen Letian sit.
"Then take a sip of water. The eunuch handed over another cup of tea, Chen Letian solemnly took it, took a sip and put it down. Bow your hands respectfully and stand solemnly.
The emperor sighed softly, and the atmosphere was a little dull for a while.
Chen Letian didn't know what the emperor sighed, but being so quiet was not a solution, so he said: "Your Majesty, the minister has written a summary, and I hope to read it with Your Majesty and I'm afraid that the rules will be broken." "China
"Okay, okay, you've written several letters to me before, but that's not how you spoke. It's uncomfortable for me to sound like that. The emperor finally said what he wanted to say, he thought that the young and vigorous Chen Letian would definitely not be bound by etiquette, and even some rudeness in front of the emperor was normal, but this one looked at the face, but found that this Chen Letian was not at all like Chen Letian in the previous letters. In addition to the necessary polite words, there is no other nonsense, and there is nothing to say, which is not concealed at all, but why is this Chen Letian in front of him so cautious?
"Your Majesty is angry, and the minister is terrified. Your Majesty, please see. Chen Letian took out from his cuff the fold that had been written long ago and was ready to be presented to His Majesty in person.
Your Majesty is safe.
The minister thinks that with the current situation in Shudi, there will be no discord for at least ten years, as long as the annual imperial history inspection system can be resolutely implemented...
The number of words is not much, but every sentence is sincere, and even if this letter is taken to the court and seen by the hundred officials, the hundred officials will definitely impeach Chen Letian and dare to say anything.
For example, in the compromise, Chen Letian directly said that His Majesty must bypass the Shu King family in Shudi, if you want to do so, then the imperial history inspection system is the best way at the moment.
To say bluntly, this generation of Shu kings is extremely smart and has no ambitions, or he does not dare to be ambitious because of His Majesty's deterrence of the Quartet, so he chooses to indulge in pleasure, but I don't know which generation of Shu kings will rebel in the future, which cannot be guaranteed. So for now, they can only live two more generations at most...
But after seeing this face-to-face twist and turn for a short time, the Great Song Emperor was not unhappy at all, but stood up very happily and said: "This is the commoner Chen Letian who dares to fight against the entire Shu officialdom with his own strength, and what I want is a courtier like you." If everyone in the world can have your sense of responsibility, why can't I worry about the Song Dynasty for generations!"
"Your Majesty, the minister still has some thoughts that cannot be told to pen and paper, and I want to talk to Your Majesty. Chen Letian scratched his head and said. I still think it's better to go straight with a single knife, and it's too tiring to pretend to be too unaccustomed and too wasteful of time.
The emperor immediately said: "Let's take it slowly, don't worry, we have time to talk slowly." ”
In the next hour, Chen Letian said a lot of things that should not be said, and even the emperor's henchman eunuch standing next to him felt very harsh when he heard it, this Lord Chen Yushi said it so casually, and the eunuch couldn't help but think to himself, isn't he afraid of killing his head, even if he is a scholar in charge of the six departments, he doesn't dare to say that.
Sure enough, it's still too young.
The eunuch changed tea for the emperor and Chen Lotian every once in a while.
The emperor sits, Chen Letian stands, and sometimes when it comes to excitement, the emperor will stand up...
An hour later, Chen Letian finished speaking, but the emperor was still unsatisfied.
Chen Letian arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, I believe that the ministers have already said this, but the ministers just said what they said again." ”
The emperor said: "Your ideas are very organized, although you are not the first to put forward each one, but it is the best comprehensive, and you are really the only one who analyzes the relationship between them so thoroughly." I'm very pleased. ”
The emperor took two steps, and suddenly turned around and said, "Aiqing stays and serves in the court, right?"
Chen Letian heard this and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, by all means, the minister has never been an official, this time it is only His Majesty who raises love, and the guidance of the imperial historians can barely do it." If you really let the minister be an official, not to mention that the minister's ability and qualifications are still 108,000 miles away, that is, many rules and laws are unknown to the minister. ”
The emperor looked at Chen Letian noncommittally, thinking that the meaning of your words is nothing more than that you are afraid that the court will be in danger and you won't know how to die when the time comes.
Chen Letian raised his head and glanced at the emperor again, and said, "If Your Majesty really wants to reward the minister, then the minister wants something." If Your Majesty insists on making the minister an official, it may not be long before Your Majesty sees that the minister is about to be beheaded. ”
His Majesty originally wanted to say something, but listening to Chen Letian's last big truth, he sighed helplessly.
