Money, power, and beauty, when you have them at the same time, you really have a feeling of falling deeper and deeper.

It is no wonder that in the long history of mankind, no one can escape.

Early in the morning, Ning Ze left the quilt and sat on the edge of the bed with emotion.

"Master Hou, the slave will change your clothes!" Fluttershy, who woke up at the commotion, hurriedly sat up.

"No need!" Ning Ze glanced back at her, "Have a good rest today, you don't have to do anything." ”

"Oh......" Fluttershy responds softly.

"What do you think?" Ning Ze turned his back to her to straighten out his pajamas.

"Huh?"

"Lone asks what you think. ”

"Slave maid...... The slave just wants to stay with the princess for the rest of her life. If anyone knows about the slave and the princess......"

"Got it! Ning Ze got up and shouted outside, "Cherish Spring!"

After a while, Xichun pushed the door in and walked quickly to Ning Ze: "What does Master Hou command?"

"Change clothes!" Ning Ze had long been accustomed to being served, and opened his arms directly.

"Yes~" Xichun immediately took Ning Ze's clothes and dressed them carefully for him.

For a moment, Ning Ze noticed that she was secretly looking at Fluttershy, and there was a hint of envy in her eyes.

Dressed neatly out of the room, when passing through the courtyard, I found that Liu Yuanxiang, Chu Meiren, and Mi Yan were all there, sitting around the stone table in the courtyard, and there were unprocessed official documents on the table.

When Ning Ze appeared, the three girls got up at the same time and squatted together to salute: "Husband~"

"What are you doing?" Ning Ze walked to the edge of the stone table.

"I have nothing to do, and I review the official documents for my husband. Chu Meiren replied softly.

Liu Yuanxiang smiled and approached Ning Ze: "Fluttershy's girl is okay?"

"Cough~" Ning Ze coughed lightly, "Kumon Gu will read it himself, you are pregnant, you should rest more." ”

Seeing him like this, the three wives looked at each other and covered their mouths and chuckled.

"That's right!" Chu Meiren picked up an official document and quickly turned into a serious expression, "Husband, recently, there have been a lot of love letters from Hanzhou, Chengzhou, and Liangzhou counties, at least more than ten local officials have been accused of corruption and perversion of the law, preying on the common people, favoritism, and inaction, and the local officials have not dealt with it, causing the people's resentment to boil. It is not easy to win the trust of the people of various states, and if this matter cannot be properly handled, I am afraid that it will fall short. ”

"Yes!" Liu Yuanxiang also had a serious expression, "Husband, if these unqualified officials continue to stay in office, they will definitely increase the people's resentment, and it will be difficult to soothe them, so they should be dealt with in time!"

"These?" Ning Ze felt a slight headache and reached out to rub his temples.

Mi Yan saw it and got up to rub his head lightly. Don't look at her usual reckless appearance, in fact, there are times when she is careful.

"Husband, I also know that this question is a bit troublesome. Chu Meiren said, "Although the two grand events have attracted a large number of talents for our side, they still can't fill all the vacancies. There is still a shortage of people in important locations, not to mention the county and town levels below. If these officials are removed, it will be difficult to find replacements. ”

"Yes!" Ning Ze sighed, "Although these officials have problems, at least they do not hesitate to implement the decree and will not delay their official business." Once removed, it's really hard to find a replacement. ”

"But we can't sit back and watch the people's grievances boil over. Liu Yuanxiang said, "The people are the cornerstone, if the cornerstone is unstable, how to build a high-rise building?"

"I understand the truth, but where can I find this talent?" Ning Ze smiled bitterly, "You can't tear down the east wall and make up the west wall......

"Husband," Liu Yuanxiang suddenly remembered something, "Do you remember Chief Li?"

"Li Shun?"

"That's right! Chief Li and a group of officials were sent to Binaqiu, and it was time to wake up after so long. Liu Yuanxiang said, "They are also loyal to the palace, and I believe that after this lesson, they will no longer be embarrassed by their husbands." It's better to recall them all, just to fill the gap. Even if he was demoted, it was better than suffering in the barren land of Binachu. ”

"You mean that group of people who lack hearts?" Ning Ze thought for a while, although Li Shun and the others were a little lacking in hearts, their abilities were worthy of recognition. So he nodded, "They were sent by you, you can send someone to recall them." ”

"Hmm!" Liu Yuanxiang nodded slightly, "In this way, the problem is solved." ”

"Having said that, the talent problem is still the biggest shortcoming of our army!" Chu Meiren looked at Ning Ze, "We must find a way to solve this trouble." ”

"We've exhausted all our methods!" Liu Yuanxiang showed a depressed expression, "The recruitment order, female officials, and the civil and military conferences, all that can be used are used, but they still can't solve the fundamental problem." In the final analysis, it is the identity of the daughter of this palace that has become an obstacle. If this palace is still the king of Lingnan, it will not be so difficult!"

As he spoke, his eyes looked directly at Ning Ze.

Ning Ze smiled: "Madam, is this a resentful orphan?"

"That's not it, this palace also knows that he is not a man after all. Liu Yuanxiang replied, "It's just that I'm limited by the status of a princess after all." ”

"Don't worry! There is a lonely place, and any problem can be solved. Ning Ze said, "Find a time to convene civil and military officials to discuss the improvement of the imperial examination system." ”

"Improve the imperial examination system?" the three women looked at him suspiciously.

"Well, the current imperial examination system is too rigid," Ning Ze said, "and Gu is going to divide it into different fields and recruit all kinds of talents, without sticking to the usual examination requirements." Then set up an adult school to cultivate rapid management talents and alleviate the pressure of talent shortage. ”

"The improvement of the imperial examination system can be understood, and I believe that the husband has a final decision in his heart. Liu Yuanxiang asked suspiciously, "The adult school is unheard of. ”

"There's no way out," Ning Ze said, "There's still plenty of time for us." As for the specific implementation of the adult school, the orphan will watch it. ”

"Hmmm......"

The four of them were chatting energetically, and Liang Wu trotted all the way into the courtyard: "Big brother, Lao Song is here!"

The old Song in Liang Wu's mouth is Song Gao.

"Early in the morning, what's the matter?"

"Say it's important!"

"Okay, I'll go over right away!" Ning Ze waved his hand to let Liang Wu go first, turned his head and said to his wives, "You guys have a good rest." ”

Separated from his wives, he quickly came to the hall.

Song Gao came over: "Master Hou, hurry, go to the beach!"

"Go to the beach?" Ning Ze frowned at him, "It's going to be ordered in a while, what are you going to do over there?"

"That's right," Song Gao hurriedly replied, "I got up this morning and suddenly wanted to eat sea crabs......

"Eat sea crabs in the morning?" Ning Ze was speechless.

"Master Hou, listen to me. Song Gao continued, "Because I want to eat sea crabs, but I don't see fishermen in the market. I wanted to hire a fisherman to catch a few for me. Search and find a strange-looking fisherman. The fisherman told me that he went out to sea before dawn to catch fish and found a colorful light in the sea. I felt that there must be a treasure under the water, and when I entered the water to find it, I saw a huge rock covered by seaweed, and this thing was shining. I couldn't get it out of the water by myself, so I went back to the city to look for help, and I happened to bump into it. After a few interrogations and truthful explanations, I hurried over to find Master Hou. Everything in Huajun belongs to Hou Ye, how can the treasures in the sea be obtained by others? Glowing with colorful light in the water, this must be a fairy thing! There is only a fairy-like Hou Ye who is worthy of the things of the gods in this world!"

"Don't be a lonely fart!" Ning Ze asked suspiciously, "Is this thing credible?" There are so many people fishing every day, why can't others see it, but he can see the glow?"

"I don't think that man wants to lie!" Song Gao replied, "Master Hou, let's quickly take someone to the beach, and if it is true, we will fish out the treasure." If it's fake, I'll arrest the fisherman!"

Ning Ze looked at Song Gao and thought carefully, he would definitely question it if he was someone else, but this guy was born blessed, and there was more than one strange thing that had something to do with him, maybe there was something in the sea.

After thinking about it again, I sent someone to the government office to cancel today's order and let the officials work normally. Then gather the people and ask Song Gao to bring the fishermen who found the treasure and march to the sea together.

When the team came to the beach, the fisherman rowed his boat to lead the way, and Ning Ze's side sailed out and followed all the way.

"That's it!" said the fisherman, pointing to a reef area three or four kilometers to the south, "the treasure is in the water, near the seaweed near the reef. On weekdays, it should be completely covered with seaweed, but today it is a piece that is shining. ”

"Master Hou!" Song Gao pointed to the reef sea, "Look!"

A closer look in the direction he was pointing showed that the calm sea was faintly shining with colorful light.

Today the weather is good, and the sea is so calm that the faint light under the water can be seen.

"It's the sun, right?" Ning Ze turned his head to look at the shoreline, and a little sunlight was coming out.

"No, Master Hou!" the fisherman hurriedly said, "I have seen colorful lights before dawn, and there must be treasures under the water!"

"Master Hou, why don't you send someone into the water to find out?" Song Gao proposed.

"Hmm~" Ning Ze ordered to let the best soldier in the water enter the sea and dive down to find out.

Several sailors went to sea and surfaced soon after.

"How?" Ning Ze asked.

"Lord Hou, there is indeed something shining down there!" replied loudly to the sailor who came to the surface, "It is obscured by seaweed, and it is difficult to see the face." ”

"Can you find out what it is?" Ning Ze asked busily.

"I'll dive deeper and see if we can remove the seaweed!" several sailors breathed hard to store air.

"Stay safe!" Ning Ze cautiously ordered.

Get ready, and the sailors dive into the sea one after another.

Ning Ze, Song Gao and others stood on the boat and waited nervously.

After a while, they surfaced one after another.

"How?"

In the face of Ning Ze's inquiry, the sailors replied one after another: "There is a strange stone in the sea, which emits colorful light, which is very strange! The stone is too huge for us to take it out." Unless tied with a chain rope, pull the boat to the shallow. ”

"Stone, glow?" Ning Ze's face was full of strangeness, "Really?"

"I don't dare to deceive Master Hou!"

"That's right!" the fisherman suddenly remembered something, "Five years ago, there was a heavenly fire that fell into the sea, and the sound was amazing, could it be related to it?"

"Heavenly fire fell into the sea," Ning Ze said suspiciously, "Could it be a meteorite? How could a meteorite glow? And for five years, it fell into the sea and glowed again, why was it only discovered today?"

"Master Hou, let's take it out and talk about it!" Song Gao reminded on the side.

"Hmm! ”

"Wow!!"
