Chapter 19: You Know How to Tell Stories
"Master Guoshi, don't worry, no matter what you do, we will support you."
When Si Yan, who cleaned up the mess for Xiao Yinghuai, asked the ministers to dismiss the meeting, he heard such a passage.
Siyan: ?
"What does that mean?"
The Minister of Military Aircraft didn't know where he got the courage to squeeze his eyebrows at Si Yan: "Don't worry, if Your Majesty forces you, the ministers will swear to seek justice for you." ”
There is only justice, and nothing else can be done.
Because the combined civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty can't do a finger of that majesty.
Who is Si Yan, he just turned his mind slightly, and he guessed what this group of people were thinking.
After closing his eyes and contemplating for a moment, he found that he still couldn't calm down, was it an illusion? How do you feel that since you got to know that human, the number of headaches every day has increased inexplicably.
"You all think so?"
The voice of the national teacher was steady, and he couldn't hear half of his joy and anger.
The ministers looked at each other and lowered their heads tacitly, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.
Si Yan bowed slightly: "Very good, everyone will be fined half a year." ”
It sounds like a small punishment, but for everyone in the dragon clan, it's better to beat them up than to pay a fine.
In addition to wailing, everyone couldn't help but think: Is this what they said too bluntly, and the national teacher is annoyed and angry?
...
"So Your Majesty, what do you think is the standard for recruiting the best in this country?"
Si Yan, who came to have dinner with the two of them, suddenly raised such a question.
Where did Yuebai know, his eyes unconsciously went to ask Xiao Yinghuai for help.
The latter didn't give her a look, and was grabbing a chicken leg to nibble on Zhengxiang.
In Si Yan's gaze, which did not intend to relax in the slightest, Yuebai pondered for a moment.
"Recruit those who are lucky, exclude some who are unlucky, and affect the fortune of the country."
Si Yan: "......"
Xiao Yinghuai thought thoughtfully: "It seems to be a bit bullshit." ”
Hearing him speak, Si Yan glanced at him, but the words were to Yuebai: "Your Majesty, should you explain to me why the human beings who gave me are here with you." ”
Yuebai didn't hide it from him, and told the truth what happened, except for the part where the two exchanged bodies.
"Demons?"
Hearing this race that has not appeared in the public eye for a long time, Si Yan thought thoughtfully.
He didn't think that those two demons would lie, after all, the demons were not in a mess now, and it was not surprising that something happened.
"The effects of locoweed are so long-lasting?"
Looking at the heroic Yuebai, Si Yan looked away with a miserable face and looked at His Majesty the Dragon Emperor on the side.
When he saw the 'Xiao Yinghuai', who was usually unruly, now sitting in his position with his legs together, and gently wiping the corners of his lips with a silk handkerchief after eating, his expression became complicated.
"Your Majesty, after half a pillar of incense, you will change back to the dragon form again, and you will have to maintain that form for half a month."
Yuebai was shocked, it took so long.
"I arranged for someone else to take care of you, and this human will follow me back to Chaoyang Cliff."
"No!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them slapped the table at the same time, their expressions were eager, as if Si Yan was a feudal patriarch who did not agree to the marriage.
Si Yan's face turned cold: "Your Majesty, she is just a human being. ”
The implication is that this is reminding Xiao Yinghuai not to forget his identity.
Xiao Yinghuai's face was difficult to look at when he heard this.
If he was in his own body, he would naturally understand this truth, but the bad thing is that he is now 'Yuebai', that is, the human being in Siyan's mouth.
"I know, but I only need him during this time."
Yuebai and Xiao Yinghuai rarely united the front.
This man must not be allowed to leave his sight, who knows him
What would she do to my body! ’
The softness between Si Yan's eyebrows and eyes disappeared completely, and he clapped his hands.
Outside the door, several ministers led by the prime minister walked in one after another.
are all Xiao Yinghuai's confidants' 'Aichen'.
Without waiting for Xiao Yinghuai to question why the prime minister who was grounded by himself was here, Si Yan took the lead in explaining: "Your Majesty has disappeared for so many days, and the amount of government affairs accumulated is really embarrassing for me, an elderly national teacher, so I lifted the prime minister's grounding without authorization, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me." ”
Although he said such beautiful words, Si Yan couldn't see any emotion of admitting his mistake on his face, and even had a kind of arrogance of 'if you dare to say that I was wrong, then you will do it yourself'.
"Your Majesty, the old minister has already listened to what the national teacher said."
The old prime minister rested for a few days, and his complexion was obviously much more ruddy than when Yuebai last saw him.
"Your Majesty, you are now in a period of weakness, and you must have someone you trust by your side."
"Chen, you'd rather choose that subordinate." He pointed to the groom standing in the corner, who had no sense of presence.
"You can't choose this human either."
Xiao Yinghuai hugged his chest and snorted coldly.
Of course he knew, but now the situation was special, and he and this human being were probably the people in the world who didn't want anything to happen to each other.
Seeing 'her' snorting coldly, the old prime minister glared at her fiercely.
Enchantress!
Yuebai looked at Xiao Yinghuai, who gave her a very swaggering look and motioned her to figure out her own way.
Si Yan even ordered someone to bring tea, as if he was not afraid of a tug-of-war with others.
"Ahem, let's do it, I'll tell you a story."
Xiao Yinghuai had a bad premonition.
"It's called 'The King and the Dog.'"
Crowd: "......."
I've never seen myself scolded like this.
Giving Xiao Yinghuai, who was squinting and looking ugly, a reassuring look, Yuebai cleared his throat and continued: "Once upon a time, there was a very ferocious king, and he raised many vicious dogs that were large and irritable. ”
Hearing this beginning, everyone thought to themselves that this is Xiao Yinghuai's autobiography dressed in the skin of a story?
"As long as someone contradicts or disobeys his ideas, he will throw the other person into the dog pen and let the other person be bitten by the dog."
"On this day, there was an old minister who refuted the king's proposal when he was in court."
The old prime minister straightened up, this must be him.
Yuebai took in everyone's expressions and continued: "So the murderous king wants to throw the old minister into the dog pen, so that the subjects can know who is in charge of this country. ”
"The old minister, who was about to be taken away by the soldiers, was so frightened that he desperately kowtowed to the ground, begging the king to spare his life."
Of course, the king disagreed, but for the sake of the old minister's many years of service, the king gave him an extra week to enjoy his last days on earth.
"Just when everyone thought that Lao Chen would be all kinds of chic in the world, Lao Chen surprised everyone, he ran to the dog pen alone, fed the dog, bathed, played with the dog and even slept with the dog."
"Seven days passed, and the old minister was thrown into the dog pen by the king, and just when the king thought that the old minister was going to be bitten by the vicious dogs, the vicious dogs gathered around the old minister, as if he were their family."
"The king questioned this, and the old minister said: I feed the dogs, bathe them, and play with them, and in just seven days they treat me as a family member, and you, I have assisted the dynasty for decades, and the dog still knows how to be grateful, but you are not even as good as a dog."
Hearing this, the old prime minister's face was full of emotion.
Your Majesty..... When you grow up, you even use stories to satirize yourself and praise us euphemistically, and you are dumbfounded when you die.
"The king listened and pondered for a long time.....
"Eventually, he had the soldiers throw him into the wolf pen next door."
Everyone: "......."
You know how to tell a story.
