The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Hai Dafu finally entered the palace.

Your Highness, Your Majesty asked the villain to come to inquire, do you want to know where I went wrong? Hai Dafu stood beside Xiao Rui and asked respectfully.

Xiao Rui replied: I figured it out, I figured it out, first, leave Beijing without permission...

He was about to report one by one and tell the mistakes he deeply realized, but was stopped by Hai Dafu.

Your Highness, Your Majesty said, since you have figured it out, go back and face the wall and think about it. Before opening the mansion, you are not allowed to leave the mansion for half a step. Hai Dafu said with a smile: If you dare to resist the order, you will break your legs.

??

Xiao Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, his father was really ruthless, punishing himself by kneeling for four hours was not enough, he had to go home and face the wall to think about his mistakes.

I understand. Xiao Rui could only obey the order.

Unexpectedly, Hai Dafu said again: In addition, Your Majesty said that the boy brought from Qiuyang County should be handed over to Dongchang for disposal. Remember the principle that a gentleman does not build a dangerous wall.

No! Xiao Rui immediately refused: I also ask my father-in-law to tell my father for me. My son has his own plans, so please rest assured.

Hai Dafu glanced at Xiao Rui, seeing his resolute face, especially the resoluteness in his eyes, he nodded and said: Okay, my villain will report back for His Highness.

He hurriedly left to report, and after a stick of incense, he didn't come back.

After less than half an hour, Hai Dafu has not returned yet.

Xiao Rui sighed, he understood that Emperor Xia's anger, which had been so hard to calm down, rose again, annoyed at his indecision and not cutting the grass. But Xiao Rui wanted to persevere this time.

Since you asked me to kneel, then continue to kneel!

Xiao Rui's stubborn temper came up, hum, it's not you asking me to get up, but to see if I can stand up!

Just so proud.

Oops, my knee, it hurts.

As time passed by, Xiao Rui gritted his teeth, feeling that his legs were no longer his own.

Finally, Emperor Xia arrived in person.

Looking at Xiao Rui who was staggering and almost knelt down, a look of emotion finally appeared on Emperor Xia's calm face.

Why do you insist on keeping him? Emperor Xia entered the hall, stood in front of Xiao Rui, and looked down at him.

Xiao Rui raised his head and stared calmly at Emperor Xia.

Father, my son has heard a saying that you can use people as a mirror to show your gains and losses. Although it is inappropriate to say this here, I also want to use it as a metaphor. Xiao Rui said frankly: My son can kill you at any time. The son of a bandit, but it is easy to kill him, but it is difficult to kill all the great thieves and bandits in the world!

After carefully savoring these words, Emperor Xia was a little moved, then nodded, and said, Very good! Let's go back.

My son obeys the order! Xiao Rui finally couldn't hold on and fell down in the hall.

Xiao Rui was led out of the palace gate by the forbidden army.

When Gao Quan saw His Highness's appearance, he was so frightened that he thought that Emperor Xia ordered someone to break his legs.

Why panic, it's just that kneeling is numb. Xiao Rui scolded with a smile: It can be said that I have finished kneeling in this life.

Only then did Gao Quan settle down, and hurried back to the house by car.

The next day, news that Xiao Rui was punished in the Hall of Mental Cultivation spread throughout the capital. It was said that Longyan was furious, and Xiao Rui knelt for nearly four hours. .

This incident aroused discussion among the common people, and the princes were more touched.

Ninth Prince Xiao Yan naturally went to visit Xiao Rui at the first time, but he was blocked in front of the door, guarded by the imperial guards, and Emperor Xia ordered that no one should visit during the period of facing the wall.

This signal made everyone secretly speculate, speculating that the Seventh Prince's opening of the mansion was about to cause such a incident, did it represent some kind of signal, could it be that the Seventh Prince was the first candidate to be expelled as a prince?

Probably!

Because it was rare to see Emperor Xia so angry.

This incident also made the capital, which was originally undercurrents and turbulent, instantly quiet, and no one wanted to repeat the same mistakes.

A few days later, Xiao Rui's small house was as deserted as before.

After Xiao Rui finished his training, he went to discuss with Jia Xu.

Sir, five days later will be the day when I open the mansion. After the opening of the mansion, His Majesty will arrange for the princes to serve. This time I seize the opportunity and can choose by myself. Xiao Rui poured tea for Jia Xu, and then continued to ask: I don't know if I'm a prince. What position should I choose?

Jia Xu nodded and thanked Xiao Rui's virtuous corporal. He smiled and asked: Your Highness, what do you think Emperor Xia will arrange for the princes to serve? Why don't we all speculate.

Xiao Rui was very interested, so he smiled and said: Okay! In my opinion, since the position is assigned to cultivate the prince's ability, the selected position is naturally aimed at our shortcomings. The eldest prince Xiao Lie is gentle and peaceful, lacking in temper, I guess, let him go to the Ministry of Punishment or Dali Temple to practice his temper.

Second prince Xiao Yiheng is aloof and arrogant, but he possesses both literary talent and martial arts, so I'm a little confused.

The third prince, Xiao Ze, is casual and lazy. I guess, he must go to the Ministry of Officials to keep him busy.

The fourth prince, Xiao Feng, has a reckless personality, so he is naturally a member of the Ministry of Rites, so he should learn from others.

Fifth Prince Xiao Yuan has a suspicious personality and likes to speculate. Going to the Ministry of War and military affairs has never been thoughtful since ancient times.

The sixth prince, Xiao Ming, has an irritable personality and is a little bit greedy. He is naturally the Ministry of Household Affairs. Let's see if he dares to be greedy!

The eighth prince, Xiao Jing, is a little self-righteous, with a youthful spirit, hehe, how is Ying Tianfu?

As for the last Xiao Yan, that guy can dance well, I think the Clan Mansion is the most suitable!

Jia Xu nodded and said, Your Highness is wise, just like I guessed. I think the second prince Xiao Yiheng will go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Where is Your Highness? Where do you think you will go?

Xiao Rui shook his head, he still couldn't position himself, because he didn't know his image in Emperor Xia's heart, but according to this speculation, there was only one Ministry of Industry left in the sixth department, so could it be that he would go to Guanglu Temple and other five temples?

Sir? Xiao Rui asked.

Jia Xu stroked his beard and said with a smile, I think His Highness will go to the cabinet.

Ah? Xiao Rui uttered in surprise. He had thought about any department, but he had never thought about the cabinet.

Jia Xu explained: If His Highness is punished before, I think His Highness will go to Dali Temple, but you said to Xia Huang that you can use people as a mirror to show your gains and losses. I guess you will feel more for Xia Huang. It is not kind of you to let the son of a bandit go. , I still learned to be cruel. Your Highness lacks both wisdom and bravery, but lacks connections, so what I can think of is naturally the cabinet!

But it's not easy to go to the cabinet! I'm worried that I will be attacked by other princes. There will always be the first one to be eliminated. In my opinion, the current Highness should not challenge everyone. It's better to hide your strength and bide your time.

Xiao Rui nodded and asked, Sir, which department do you think I should suggest to Father?

But Jia Xu asked back: Your Highness, what do you think is the most important thing in the world to the emperor?

The people are the most important thing! Xiao Rui naturally understood this truth: The people are the most important, followed by the community, and the king is the least.

That's right, so what His Highness deserves is the respect of the people all over the world. Jia Xu said in a deep voice, I think His Highness should work in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, as the supervisory censor, patrol the prefectures and counties, and specialize in the investigation and examination of officials. Impeach! To deal with injustice for the people of the world! Why waste time in the capital and start meaningless competitions with the princes?

Leaving the capital is not only a way to keep a low profile, but also a kind of exercise. What do you think, Your Highness?

After hearing this, Xiao Rui took a deep breath and fell into thinking.

ps: Today is the third watch, thanks to the brothers who have rewarded and voted for recommendation for a long time.
