Chapter 1653: A Gentleman's Word

"One soldier bears, one nest of bears, leading soldiers to fight is like this, I see that the same is true of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, in the final analysis, Liu Qiheng is not strict under control, and it is not good to manage things." Xiao Chen said, "I don't have to wait for them to join me, I'll give him to him first when I'm free another day." ”

"In fact, Liu Qiheng is not incompetent, but he is timid, has no ideas, and does not want to offend people, but he offends everyone, so it is not suitable for him to be the imperial history...... Lord Xiao, what I said is to tell you, I don't admit Ang when I go out! Zhao Yu said.

"You're right, isn't that what you're talking about? I want to be the imperial history of the capital, and I want to be a good man, but as a result, my official affairs have been delayed, and my friendship has been annihilated...... Ziyu, do you think he can be a scholar of the Ministry of Rites? Xiao Chen suddenly asked.

"I remember that Liu Qiheng was the champion and the first, and later ordered Hanlin, did a bachelor of Hanlin, and also worked as a prince Shaobao in the East Palace for a while, only because the prince didn't like him at that time, he went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate again...... If he is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, his qualifications are enough. When Zhao Yu talked to Xiao Chen, he had no scruples and spoke bluntly.

"Then I'll go back and talk to King Xuanping and see what he means?" Xiao Chen's tone was big.

"Lord Xiao, with all due respect, since the emperor has ordered you to take the main exam for studying politics, it will not be very convenient if you don't have an identity in the Ministry of Rites...... Wouldn't it be better if you could be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites? Zhao Yu said truthfully.

"Do you think I can do the same as the Book of Rites?" Xiao Chen stuck out his tongue at Zhao Yu and made a grimace as he squeezed his eyes.

"Yes." Zhao Yu said, "Lord Xiao, you are a talent in the world, a pillar of the country, and it is more than enough to be a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, but it's a pity that I am a light speaker, otherwise I will inevitably protect you with the emperor...... In fact, I look at the emperor's meaning, and it seems that he also wants you to be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but he didn't announce it in public, maybe it's just left to King Xuanping to be this favor? ”

"Oh, you Zhao Ziyu, I'm scared of what I say!" Xiao Chen grinned when he heard this, "Is this what you should say?" ”

"I dare to say anything to you, Lord Xiao." Zhao Yu was serious, "When Ming'er went to see King Xuanping, if he asked, I would say the same!" ”

Say whatever you think in your heart.

"Ministry of Rites, I can't do it, just because I'm not from a Jinshi." Xiao Chen said, "The emperor has set a lot of precedents for me, but the Ministry of Rites can't open this example, don't say that the emperor doesn't plan to let me be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, even if I have this meaning, I have to fight to the death." ”

When it's time to be public, Xiao Chen is very high-profile, and when it's time to be restrained, he is more low-key than anyone else.

"Alas...... It was really sad to see that the emperor came out, the two princes made a fuss like this, and Cheng Youwen, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, ...... Etiquette collapses, nothing more than this! "Zhao Yu is really worried about the country, the people and the king.

"That's why the emperor asked us to investigate secretly...... Originally, I took the lead in this matter, but now that I have King Xuanping, I can transfer this burden to him. Xiao Chen said.

"Huh? Lord Xiao, are you saying that you have to inform King Xuanping about this? Zhao Yu was surprised.

This is a secret errand sent to us by the emperor, the stakes are very high, and it shouldn't involve a hairy boy, and let him bear this burden, can he bear it? If something goes wrong, we're all unlucky, and he's unlucky himself.

"Not only to inform, but also to do things according to his instructions, of course, if he doesn't have any instructions, what should we do or what to do." Xiao Chen said.

"Oh...... I understand, Lord Xiao, do you mean that in the future, this case will be solved, even if it is the credit of Prince Xuanping? Zhao Yu really understood.

"Why do you still want to be greedy?" Xiao Chen said with a smile.

"I don't want to, this case will be done in the end, don't say that there is merit, as long as there is no fault, thank God!" Zhao Yu said, "Then I'll leave first, and we'll come over early tomorrow morning, and let's go to see King Xuanping together." “

"Regardless of whether it has merit or demerits, we all have to handle this case well...... By the way, Ziyu, they just brought me some canned venison, you can bring some back for the children to eat fresh, and you can also bring some dried white mushrooms, a specialty of Xuanming County. Xiao Chen said.

"Hehe, I, Zhao Yu, usually never accept other people's things, but I will accept your Lord Xiao's things calmly, and the more the better!" Zhao Yu was overjoyed.

"That's also the shortest time to eat me, take my soft hand, you Zhao Ziyu has a bright future in the future, I still make your friend in advance, now you can still give me a little thin noodles, accept me a little thin gift, I'm afraid I won't be able to climb high in the future!" I don't mean Lord Zhao or anything you carry, but if it falls into your hands, you have to raise your noble hand and show mercy to your subordinates. ”

"Hahaha, since you say so, Lord Xiao, I will listen to it!" Zhao Yu laughed, "If there is really such a day, I Zhao Ziyu will not be merciful for you Lord Xiao!" ”

"Okay, gentleman." Xiao Chen said with a smile.

"Whip the horse!" Zhao Yu said casually, "Where is the can?" Is it meat or fruit? Several of my children like to eat oranges and peaches, I don't know if there are any? Now this season, we don't have any fresh fruits and vegetables in Fengyang City......"

Zhao Yu thought Xiao Chen was joking, he felt that even if he had a bright future, he would not be able to be on an equal footing with Xiao Chen in this life, let alone hold him high. So he agreed very happily, but he didn't know that Xiao Chen was not joking with him, but hinting at him, and he didn't understand, mainly because he couldn't think of it......

Early the next morning, Xiao Chen and Zhao Yu went straight to the East Palace Prince's Mansion...... Now it was the Xuanping Palace, and when Li Qiu learned that the two of them were coming, he immediately invited them in.

After seeing that the ceremony was over, they each sat down and served tea.

"Ziyu, you are the famous strong commander? I heard that you even dared to beat the chief eunuch under the Queen Mother. "Li Qiu has heard of Zhao Yu's name.

"Ministers only walk according to the law." Zhao Yu said.

"Well, my father ordered Xiao Wang to act as the agent of Fengyang Mansion, but Xiao Wang has just arrived, and he doesn't understand anything, so you have to advise Ziyu a lot in the future." Li Qiudao.

"I don't dare." Zhao Yu hurriedly got up and said, "But whenever the prince inquires, the minister will know everything, and he will say everything!" ”

"Then this is the first-class cloud cavalry captain, the first talent in the world, Xiao Chen, the double governor of Yanyun Yizhou, Xiao Wucheng?" Li Qiu looked at Xiao Chen and said with a smile.

"Yes, the minister." Xiao Chen said humbly.

"Xiao Wang, I have also heard of your name for a long time, and when I saw it today, it was indeed a good name." Li Qiudao.

"The prince is falsely praised, helpless too much?" Xiao Chen said.

"But not." Li Qiu said with a smile, "People are as their name is, they are appropriate." ”

"Lord Wang, let's ...... here" Xiao Chenxin said that he was stunned to talk to Lao Tzu about this, of course Lao Tzu is as his name, but you also know what Lao Tzu has changed.

Of course, there are many things I don't know......

It's just that Zhao Yu is in front of him, and he can't ask directly, so he can only talk about business.
