Are you stupid?

Chapter 32 Drawing Circles and Waiting for People to Jump [VIP]

Wei Yan grew up with Emperor Taixing, and his relationship with Emperor Taixing was extraordinary; but he always spoke frankly, which was really unlikable, and his words were often too fierce, which made Emperor Taixing unable to resist, so he could only retreat quickly walking experience.Zhang Xi and the others can only speak nice words, regardless of whether it will cause bad results, as long as they can make Emperor Taixing happy, it will be considered a success; but even Emperor Taixing knows that the group of Zhang Xi who is closest to him is unreliable, Can not entrust heavy responsibility.

Both parties have their own advantages and disadvantages. Emperor Taixing couldn't make a choice for a while, so he raised his hand and pressed his aching head, and put on a peacemaker's smile to perform the omnipotent delaying method.

"This matter is not urgent. The crown prince's subordinate officials have not yet been clarified. Let's continue to discuss the prince's subordinate officials."

Take me to the post?

Shenlong blinked his eyes, got up and said: "Father, my son is young and doesn't know much about government affairs. I will learn from my father in the future. My son thought, it's better to have the same team as my father, so as not to find someone who is as ignorant as my son." , act indiscriminately, and cause more trouble to the father."

Use the same team?

Isn't that what happened around the prince, he can know everything?

Thinking that when he was the crown prince, he would often inquire about the news from the officials in front of the emperor in order to get the news from the late emperor's close ministers, and would be suspected by the late emperor. Emperor Taixing only felt that his son's thoughts were magnanimous and selfless.As long as the same team is used, it will be difficult for Shenlong to do any extra moves. Everything is under his control, and he doesn't have to worry about his son calculating him behind his back.

It's a good idea!

Sure enough, Shenlong was still young, so he was ignorant to say such things.

Seeing that Emperor Taixing was silent and just staring at him, Shenlong looked at Emperor Taixing repeatedly with nervous eyes, lowered his head and said dejectedly, "My son doesn't understand anything, if the father dislikes his son Following Father's side will cause trouble to Father, and it will be enough to match a few newly promoted officials."

No, definitely don't give your son any extra officials!

Emperor Taixing immediately interjected: "No, my son has a good idea. The officials of the Crown Prince Zhan's mansion should directly recruit the imperial team. It will indeed save a lot of trouble and make the government order clear."

Shenlong raised his face, smiled happily and contentedly, "Thank you, father."

"Your Majesty, the crown prince is an official matter, please make a decision as soon as possible."

Wei Yan didn't care how the crown prince's subordinates were set up. Anyway, since the crown prince wanted to study with Emperor Taixing, seeing each other every day would not have any impact on his life.The most important thing now is to kill the candidate for Zhongshuling immediately. Even if he can't do Zhongshuling himself, he must not let Zhang Xi and his group occupy such an important position, otherwise something disgusting may happen.

The activity of "designating the crown prince as an official" originally launched by Emperor Taixing to delay the time was resolved by the prince in a few words, and Emperor Taixing faced the siege of courtiers again.

Emperor Taixing's mind was in a mess, so he had to resort to fleeing Dafa again, announcing that "this matter is not urgent, and we will discuss it later", he quickly retreated and hid.

Shenlong smiled and watched Emperor Taixing leave, got up unhurriedly, bowed his hands to the courtiers, and walked back slowly.

Zhang Xi thought that he was related to the royal family, so he immediately came up to Shenlong to express his kindness, "Your Highness has recovered from illness, and I haven't visited the palace yet, so don't blame your Highness."

"I live in the inner palace, so it's not impolite for the servants to come in." Zhang Xi showed kindness and friendliness, and Shenlong also smiled softly and well-behaved, "Is the good day of cousin and Lingmei coming soon? I will definitely help when the time comes." Welcome."

Since Shenlong announced his recovery from illness, he has not left the palace to visit anyone's house.The courtiers agreed that the crown prince would return to the palace for the first time, and he would have to wait until the year before to replace Emperor Taixing to deliver the annual gift bestowed by the emperor to the homes of the courtiers.

But the marriage between the Cui family and the Zhang family was scheduled years ago!

Zhang Xi was overjoyed, and quickly said: "Don't dare to work, Your Highness, as long as your Highness goes to drink a glass of water and wine, it will be enough to add luster to the family."

"My grandmother's family has a gentle personality and is impatient with competing with others. Now that I have received the grace of God and come out to live alone, I hope to have a good daughter-in-law to solve my problems. Sister Wan'er is smart and capable. She must be able to be filial to her parents-in-law and take care of the family house. "Shenlong patted Zhang Xi's forearm through the clothes, "Sister Wan'er will definitely be able to do it."

Zhang Xi heard cold sweat almost dripping down the back of his neck!

The prince had just recovered from his illness, even if Emperor Taixing and Empress Cui stuffed the prince's mind with information from the courtiers' homes, the prince could not remember much.

Therefore, the prince infers that the Cui family is now harmonious on the surface and contentious on the inside only by relying on the few words of Empress Cui in the past?

Moreover, what the prince said was not simple.

Although he clearly kept praising Zhang Wan for being smart and capable, and would definitely be able to support the Cui family's family, but he was implying that he should go back and teach his daughter well, not to act arrogantly when he was in power at home, which made the two mother-in-laws in the Cui family unhappy. Are you happy?

"The little girl is not as good as His Highness said. She is just an ignorant yellow-haired girl who was spoiled by me and her mother. After getting married, she has to learn from her mother-in-law." Wiping sweat in front of a teenager is too embarrassing, so I have to put my hands behind my back and smile wryly.

"In the future, I will call Sister Wan'er a sister-in-law." Shenlong suddenly lowered his voice, "In the future, we will be relatives, so I might as well tell the servants the truth - the father relies on regulations to secure the throne, and he is extremely unwilling to break the court. It is regulated, if the servant does not go down to practice, I am afraid that the official position in this life will stop here."

Zhang Xi asked nervously, "Why did Your Highness say such a thing? - Could it be that His Majesty has already made a decision in his heart!"

Shenlong shook his head, "Of course my father wouldn't say it directly, but in the past few days, I saw my father find out who the old ministers who are working outside are."

"Officials without external appointments will definitely stop at the fourth rank, and they will be transferred at the same level in the future. If the servant is really interested, it is better to go out while he is young. As long as he can make one or two political achievements, he will only return to the central government in three to five years. After that, you will benefit endlessly." Shenlong's words made people inexplicably reassuring, as if there was a smooth road ahead, and there was nothing to worry about after leaving Beijing.

He left after he finished speaking, without giving Zhang Xi a chance to stalk him.

——If he didn't scare him severely, Zhang Xi would rather cry with his arms around Emperor Taixing's thigh than voluntarily give up his position in the central government and ask to be sent to work in a local area.

In fact, Zhang Xi's worry is not unreasonable, Shenlong has indeed drawn a trap for him to jump into.

As long as capable officials are willing to educate the people well, lead the people to reclaim the land, plant mulberry and silkworms to get rich, and the Ministry of Officials evaluates the performance of officials with two or three excellent in a row, they will soon be able to stand out and get promoted.

But Zhang Xi is not a "capable official"!

People like Zhang Xi are good at flirting and flattering, and they work hard and hard work.After he really went to the local area, he couldn't solve the practical problems at all, and would only join forces with the local tyrants to make money.

Shenlong also knows that what he did is sorry for the people who are about to be governed by Zhang Xi, but if Zhang Xi continues to let Zhang Xi do whatever he wants in the court, it will only become a bigger trouble in the future and it will be difficult to deal with; Zhang Xi cleaned up to a useless position, and that was all he could do.

Shenlong boarded the car to go to the apse, and bumped into Wei Yan as soon as he entered the door.

Wei Yan was holding on to Emperor Taixing who was chattering about "If Zhang Xi is the order of Zhongshu, it will cause harm to the court one, two, three, four, six, seven, eight", and Shenlong couldn't help but pursed his lips and laughed.

"The dragon is here, why did you stay outside for so long." Emperor Taixing hurriedly grabbed his son to gossip, hoping to distract Wei Yan's attention.

He hid because he was afraid that Wei Yan would tell the truth regardless of his indifference in the court, and severely scolded himself and Zhang Xi's group. Unexpectedly, not only did he fail to hide into fifteen, he even failed to hide in the first day of junior high school.

——Emperor Taixing reached the big study in the back hall and sat down. Wei Yan immediately caught up with his feet, and he was dizzy from chanting.

Originally, Wei Yan had a much better impression of the prince because of the prince's arrangement for several accompanying readers. Unexpectedly, when he saw the prince and Zhang Xi whispering together today, Wei Yan suddenly had another opinion on the prince.

Seeing the appearance of Shenlong, Wei Yan saluted and greeted with a cold face, acting as if he refused to be thousands of miles away.

Shenlong didn't care about Wei Yan's attitude. In fact, he even felt that it would be better for the court to have more people like Wei Yan who do practical things and don't like to flatter.

"Father, after coming down to court, my son met Zhang Shizhong and chatted with him about Cui and Zhang's marriage arrangements."

"Didn't your mother promise you to go out of the palace to watch the ceremony?" Emperor Taixing shook his head, looked at Shenlong dotingly and smiled, "You obviously want to go out of the palace to play, and you insist on talking about your cousin's marriage."

Shenlong replied with a grin, "My son didn't just think about going out to play. I have specially selected valuables from Zhang's sister's makeup and Cui's cousin's gift. My son has been doing nothing all these years. The rewards of the emperor and the queen mother, I have saved a lot of good things and can take them out to support the scene."

"If you don't understand, just watch. Don't interrupt indiscriminately, so as not to cause trouble for the marriage of the two families." Compared with talking to Wei Yan, chatting with his son really made Emperor Taixing happy. attitude.

But Shenlong suddenly put away his smile, looked at Emperor Taixing with a guilty conscience, and said in a low voice: "Father, my son seems to have said something to Zhang Shizhong that should not be said."

"Oh? What did you say to him?"

"The son said that Zhang Shizhong has no experience of going to other places to work anyway. His father trusts him and wants to promote him, so he shouldn't force him to stay in Beijing to embarrass his father. It's better to take the initiative to leave and go outside. After several years of political achievements, the emperor will give him a promotion so that he will not be criticized by the courtiers." Shenlong's expression became more and more disturbed, and he asked pitifully, "Imperial father, is your son talking too much?"

Emperor Taixing didn't say whether his son was doing right or wrong, but asked, "What did Zhang Xi do?"

"Zhang Shizhong seems to be in a very low mood. After my son said it, he couldn't get back to his senses." Shenlong replied obediently, as if making random guesses, "Why is Zhang Shizhong so afraid of going to a local office? Is there an official in the local area that everyone is afraid of?"

"There's something in the local area that he's afraid of...there really is!"

He patted the table excitedly, and said to Wei Yan: "Ayan, do you still remember Wang Hua? Isn't he suitable for Zhong Shuling's position!"

"Father, who is Wang Hua? I've never heard of it." Shenlong sat at the table, propped his chin with his hands, and asked curiously.

Speaking of Wang Hua, Emperor Taixing's eyes sparkled, as if thinking of his boyhood idol.
