Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 645 Can't see the idea
He knew what was going on in his heart, but Fang Xuanling decided to help Yu Zhining find out what the emperor meant.

Nothing else, mostly because they are in the same camp.Although he himself was not from Guanlong, he and Yu Zhining belonged to the former ministers of the King of Qin, so he would naturally help if he could.In fact, in his opinion, if Changsun Wuji is still in Chang'an, Changsun Wuji is very hopeful for the position of minister of the Ministry of Industry.

Unfortunately, he is not here.

The next day, Fang Xuanling brought the official documents of the Ministry of Punishments to the Hall of Liangyi to meet the emperor and state the details of government affairs.

Although the Dachaohui is over this year, as a minister, his work is not over.

After some conversation, Li Zhiyun was very satisfied with Fang Xuanling's ability to work, so he stayed with him to have dinner with him.

When the two sat down, Li Zhiyun asked: "Xuanling, is there any difficulty at home, is it enough?"

"Thanks to His Majesty's care, the minister's family is safe."

"Really?" Li Zhiyun teased, "How did I hear that you were often beaten by your wife?"

Fang Xuanling looked embarrassed, and secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, why does the emperor like to make fun of himself with this.In the past, when three or two ministers chatted with the emperor, whenever he was present, the emperor would always make fun of himself.

"Return to Your Majesty, my wife cares too much about my ministers." Fang Xuanling didn't dare to say bad things about his wife when no one was around.

"I don't think that's the case." Li Zhiyun said: "This daughter of the Lu family is really hot."

Hearing this, Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "My wife is a true temperament, and this is what I like about her."

"I still think it's better for women to be more gentle. How about that, would you like me to reward you with two beauties to serve you?" Li Zhiyun teased.

"No, no, my minister is old and has no blessings to enjoy. Please don't do this, Your Majesty." Fang Xuanling hastily refused.

Just kidding, if he really brought two beauties home with him, it would be strange if his wife didn't beat him to death, he wouldn't dare to gamble with his life.

"Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanling, you are also a Shangshu, a third-rank court official, and you are so afraid of internal affairs, which is rare in history." Li Zhiyun said with contempt.

"It's not uncommon." Fang Xuanling said cunningly: "I heard that Duke Du is also like this."

Now, it was Li Zhiyun's turn to be speechless.Du Ruhui is indeed afraid of internal affairs, he is well aware of this.

Should I say that the two of you are indeed good gay friends, you are exactly the same in terms of inner fear.

"You seem very proud?" Li Zhiyun asked speechlessly.

Fang Xuanling snickered and said, "If Duke Du is like this, I have nothing to be ashamed of."

It's worse than it is.

Li Zhiyun laughed, and then said: "Actually, to be honest, in my opinion, you are afraid of your own guilt, you care for your family and treat others with gentleness. For this, I appreciate you very much. Come, drink!"

"Yes."

After eating, Li Zhiyun took Fang Xuanling for a walk in the corridor to digest food.

Fang Xuanling was preoccupied with something, he was a little absent-minded, he was thinking about how to open his mouth to test His Majesty's attitude towards Zhining.

No idea, but the emperor asked directly: "Xuanling, who do you think among the princes in the court is qualified for the post of minister of the Ministry of Industry?"

This sentence, Li Zhiyun asked many people during this time, Fang Xuanling is not the first, nor will he be the last.

Fang Xuanling thought for a while, and said: "Zhongshu servant Yu Zhining, Huangmen servant Wei Ting, Shangshu Zuocheng Wang Gui, Shangshu Youcheng Su Shichang and others are all talented people."

The answer is not bad. These days, when faced with the emperor's questions, many courtiers always answer this way.

Li Zhiyun said: "You are fooling me."

"I dare not."

"Since you dare not, then you must decide on a candidate."

Fang Xuanling said: "The selection of the minister of the Ministry of Industry is related to the overall situation of the court. I dare not speak nonsense, but your majesty can make a decision with one word. However, since your majesty wants me to say it, then I have the courage to recommend Yu Zhining, the Minister of Zhongshu."

"Why him?" Li Zhiyun asked lightly.

Fang Xuanling explained: "Since Yu Shilang works in Zhongshu Province, he is talented, and I have worked with him, so I know his ability."

"You don't shy away from these things." Li Zhiyun smiled.

Fang Xuanling said sincerely: "It is my duty to share your majesty's worries and problems."

Li Zhiyun nodded and said, "I know what you mean, don't worry, I won't blame you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding." Fang Xuanling asked, "What does Your Majesty think of Yu Zhining?"

"Oh, let's talk about it later." Li Zhiyun didn't give any information, making Fang Xuanling sigh slightly.

After all, His Majesty is His Majesty, so people can't see his thoughts at all.

Not long after, Fang Xuanling bid farewell and left.

Li Zhiyun looked at his back, put his hands on the stone railing, and tapped the patterns on it with his fingers.

Can Yu Zhining do it? The answer is yes.In terms of ability, he is fine, but in terms of background, he is not good.

At least not right now.

It was not a good thing for the Guanlong people to be suppressed by him.

And he knew that the goal of the Guanlong people was not to be the minister of the Ministry of Industry, but to be the prime minister of the Zhengshitang.

is it possible?

It is absolutely impossible now.

"Fang Xuanling can't escape interpersonal relationships." Li Zhiyun sighed slightly, he seemed to have seen the struggle of various factions more than ten years later.

Although he knew it was inevitable, he couldn't help but feel repelled.Sometimes the emperor is so contradictory. He not only hopes that the ministers will fight each other to the death, but also hopes that they can listen to the emperor and be loyal and good ministers honestly.

I really want a lot.

"Come on."

"Yes." Gao Liangzhong bowed and obeyed.

Li Zhiyun said: "Fang Shangshu is loyal to court affairs, and handles the affairs of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs in an orderly manner. He will reward a hundred pieces of silk and satin, three hundred taels of gold, and ten catties of rock sugar."

"Yes."

The prices of rock sugar and white sugar are completely different, and they belong to the real high-end consumer goods. If you give this thing out as a reward, you will definitely not lose your share.

After finishing the order, Li Zhiyun went to the Shou'an Hall to pay respects to the Queen Mother Wan.

When they arrived at Shou'an Hall, they saw two little guys, Cheng Zhao and Jin Yang, were eating with their imperial grandmother.

"It seems that my visit was unlucky, and I disturbed Auntie's meal." Li Zhiyun walked in with a smile.

Empress Dowager Wan smiled and said, "The emperor is here."

"My son pays homage to the Queen Mother." Li Zhiyun bowed and saluted.

"Exemption." Empress Dowager Wan said: "We have only had a meal not long ago. If the emperor has not had a meal, then let's sit down and eat it together."

"Go back to A Niang, my son has used it."

"Then sit down." Queen Mother Wan said.

Li Zhiyun nodded, walked to the Queen Mother and sat down.

At this point, Jinyang and Chengzhao got up and saluted the emperor.

"Meet your father."

"No, let's eat."

"Thank you, Father."

Li Zhiyun asked: "Why is Madam eating so late today?"

"The two emperor's grandsons were reprimanded by the empress, they stayed here at Ai's house, and dare not go back." Queen Mother Wan said.She generally eats very little and has very short meal breaks.But today, in order to protect the two little grandchildren, he can only extend the time and let the two little guys stay with him for a while.In case the two little guys go back, they will be taught a lesson.

"Reprimand?" Li Zhiyun turned to look at the pair of sons and daughters, and asked, "What's going on?"

Jin Yang pouted, ignoring his old father.

Cheng Zhao bit the bullet and said: "The baby and the emperor's sister want to leave the palace, but the queen mother won't allow it."

Li Zhiyun sneered, "You are so courageous. If you want to leave the palace, you can leave the palace. What do you think of this place?"

Cheng Zhao lowered his head with a bitter expression on his face.

Mingming's elder sister also wanted to go out, so it's not fair for the father to talk about himself.
