Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

After having an idea, Lu Chen suddenly felt better.

When I went to court the next day, I walked with wind.

"The next step is to find out the ills that Great Xia has accumulated for thousands of years, and find a good entry point to avoid system restrictions."

On the way to Ziji City along Zhuque Street, Lu Chen's mind was racing.

"Sects that monopolize talents, aristocratic families, increasingly serious conflicts between people and land, vested interests in the ancestral system such as sea bans, the gap in the treasury caused by the royal family's pig-raising policy, the monopoly of officialdom but not suitable for the sage's way of governing the country, Cultivators don’t pay tax system and there are a lot of them. It’s a miracle that the Great Xia can continue to the present. It is estimated that this kind of miracle will only happen in this world where there are holy relics and various supernatural forces. "

"Judging from the empress's trust in me now, she will definitely protect me under normal circumstances, but if I touch the interests of those behemoths, they will join forces to put pressure on the empress, even if the empress wants to protect me. I can't keep it, in order to take the overall situation into consideration, she will definitely follow the general trend and get rid of me, even if she considers her previous friendship and doesn't kill me, she will definitely dismiss me and drive me out of the court, so as to reassure everyone and maintain the stability of the country."

"Of course, those ruthless characters who eat people and don't spit out their bones will inevitably try to target me crazily. In order to protect their interests, they may even secretly assassinate them. After all, blocking people's money is like killing parents. It is impossible for these vested interests to let me go. And as long as they succeed, I can be judged by the system to have died in the line of duty."

"Whether it is being dismissed from office or dying in the line of duty, they all meet the conditions for being promoted to immortality. It is best to be dismissed from office, but it is not unacceptable to die in line of duty. Although the process may be painful, as long as the goal can be achieved."

While thinking, his pace became faster and faster, but he didn't notice a few figures flashing by on the eaves not far behind him.

"If there is an opportunity, I still have to seize the opportunity to reduce the Empress' favor towards me."

When he was about to reach the Xuanji Gate, Lu Chen began to sort out his thoughts, and went through all the main points of the next action in his mind.

"As long as you are hated by her, there are plenty of opportunities to be dismissed from office. It is better to be dismissed than to be killed."

"Moreover, in the future, we need to get in touch with and study government affairs as much as possible. There should be many entry points that can be used. If the empress really can't count on it, then go to those existences that no one dares to touch, and make a living." Big death."

"Through a multi-pronged approach, I don't believe that you can't be dismissed from office or die in the line of duty."

"In other words, before ascension, you have to improve your strength as much as possible."

"This world is still quite dangerous. The so-called decent sects and evil sects co-exist. People are everywhere in Jianghu. Whether they are doing justice for the heavens, robbing the rich and helping the poor, or burning, killing, and looting to cause chaos in the world, these people are happy to say that they love each other. But in fact, they are basically thugs who rely on their own martial arts and despise the law to act recklessly. Not only that, there are all kinds of monsters wandering in the world. Even if they do nothing, they may be targeted for some unexpected reason .”

"If you are killed by a perverted demon or some demons that suck yang energy, the cause of death has nothing to do with being an official. If you die, you will die in vain. Not to mention ascending, it is not even sure whether you can enter reincarnation. So, you still have to have strength.”

"Besides that, you have to make more enemies. Although the emperor of this world is supreme, he can't follow his words. Most of the time, he can't help himself. Otherwise, if he acts impulsively, a bad one will set off a wave. Another wave of turmoil will shake the foundation of the country, so as long as I have enough enemies to form a general trend of sufficient weight, one day, under the turbulent will of the ministers, it is impossible for the empress to protect me even if she wants to."

Thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, and before he knew it, he had already passed through the Xuanji Gate and walked towards the Taiji Hall habitually.

In the passage separated by the high red wall, the courtiers walked side by side in twos and twos. When they saw Lu Chen, quite a few of them subconsciously walked away quickly to distance themselves from Lu Chen.

Although the rest of the people didn't deliberately avoid Lu Chen, they didn't take the initiative to approach him either.

Lu Chen's reputation has spread completely.

Many court officials know that although this person has become a celebrity in front of His Majesty, he has no intention of cultivating and establishing a pro-party. Glaring and reprimanding him, he was not at all like those favorite ministers of the emperor who used to be in the sky.

No one is willing to put a hot face on someone else's cold ass, since he is so noble, then everyone will not make mistakes in the future.

Moreover, this guy doesn't know how to be an official at all. He has such an upright temperament and doesn't know how to adapt. Sooner or later, he will be in great trouble.

The current favor and status are nothing but illusions, and it is impossible to last long. I will not say whether it is beneficial to curry favor with this kind of person. When he falls, those who are close to him will definitely be liquidated together.

So it's best not to get involved with him.

This is what most courtiers think.

Of course, not all courtiers thought as they did.

For example, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, whose appearance has not changed at all since he became an official, who did not know what method he practiced, and Xiao Yun, who is also the only female official in the six ministers.

At this time, she was frowning her beautiful brows tightly, with a worried look on her face.

If you look carefully, you can see that the top of her fluorene board is engraved with writing. It is obvious that the court will be busy today.

"well"

Xiao Yun sighed inexplicably, and there was an unresolved melancholy between her brows.

She raised her hand slowly, and habitually brushed her hair behind her ears, her demeanor was full of maturity and intellectual charm.

At this time, she suddenly noticed a lonely figure in front of her, and the brows that were slightly frowned suddenly relaxed, and at the same time she called softly:

"Huaiyu."

Hearing someone calling his name, Lu Chen suddenly came back to his senses, and then turned to look.

Then he saw a familiar big beauty looking at him with a smile on his face.

After being stunned for a moment, Lu Chen bowed his hands and saluted:

"Xiao Shangshu."

Xiao Yun nodded slightly, then walked a few steps to Lu Chen's side, and said softly, "It's such a coincidence, let's go to court together."

"my pleasure."

For Xiao Yun, a high-ranking official who has often taken care of her predecessor since she became an official, and who has an excellent official reputation and moral character, Lu Chen naturally couldn't just spout all kinds of things in order to make enemies.

Because it is so abnormal.

Not only does it not comply with the system restrictions, but it is also easy to be targeted by Zhu Xiesi, please go drink tea.

There's no need to get into such trouble.

The two naturally walked side by side towards the Tai Chi Hall.

"By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet."

On the way, Xiao Yun took the initiative to speak up: "The words of the most reasonable help your Majesty understand the way of the emperor, break through the shackles, and increase your life by more than 20 years. For such a great achievement, your majesty will be rewarded generously, and your majesty has always believed in the king's way." You, who have discerned the details, have contributed to your Majesty's efforts to retain such a valuable and virtuous official like Xia Yan, this time His Majesty will definitely promote you and entrust you with important responsibilities."

"Huiyu has such an opportunity at such a young age, even I am a little envious."

As she said that, seeing that Lu Chen's expression didn't change at all, and was as calm as ever, she suddenly teased on a whim:

"By the way, Huaiyu, although an official should be as stable as Mount Tai and not be moved by external objects, it is not a good thing to be too stable, especially for young people like you."

"Young people should be energetic, and only when they have vitality can they be motivated. Don't be like an old man who has no form of emotion. You are young and ambitious now. Although you can't get carried away, you shouldn't be without fluctuations. Such a happy thing, you should take good care of it." Be happy, don't hold it in your heart, or you will get sick one day."

Hearing this, the corners of Lu Chen's mouth twitched slightly.

Happy?

I'm so fucking happy, okay? !

………………

I was dragged to work overtime, and I just finished writing now, I am very sorry! ! !
