Manchu traitor, how can you let me be the emperor of the ages

Chapter 14

At the same time, Gaofu in the capital.

As the night falls, the lanterns are long and swaying with the breeze.

Wearing a simple blue brocade blouse, Changsun Wuji walked briskly, with a bit of unconcealable excitement in his brows, he came to the study in the backyard and closed the door.

"Uncle! I heard that after entering the palace yesterday, my sister is the most favored by His Majesty."

Gao Shilian was still reading under the lamplight. After hearing this, he raised his head with a smile on his face and stroked his long beard.

"Oh? The auxiliary machine also knows?"

"It seems to be true."

Changsun Wuji had a bit of joy on his face: "I used to hear how difficult the life of women in the deep palace is, and I was worried that my sister would suffer if she went."

"Since His Majesty has paid attention to her, my sister's life must not be much worse."

Gao Shilian also smiled: "Yes."

"Originally, I was a little bit worried when I got the ultimatum from the imperial palace yesterday. After all, Guanyin's servant girl was only conferred a fourth-rank beauty."

"After giving money to the little eunuch, I realized that His Majesty only conferred four beauties, and even Marshal Zhao and General Yang's family's daughters were only conferred beauties, so I was relieved."

Yesterday, the result of Li Gan's canonization of the concubine was spread outside the palace, which shocked many scholars and eunuchs.

My own daughter/granddaughter was only registered as a sixth or seventh grade? ?
What is the difference between this and a slave in the harem? ?

Quite a few people were subconsciously annoyed, and even Leng Touqing was going to the palace to ask for an explanation!

It was just after we went out that we exchanged ideas,
What?The daughter of the old Zhang family was sealed as a seventh rank?

What?The daughter of the old Liu family is also a seventh-rank?That's all right!

What?General Yang's granddaughter is actually a fourth rank?Not even a Jieyu!

What?Is it the same for the daughter of Marshal Zhao's family?

That's it? ?
what are you doing?Don't talk nonsense!I'm not kidding them!

This is how people's mentality is, don't worry about scarcity but unevenness.

Knowing that most of the family members were like me, these officials all died down.

Originally, several families felt that their daughter was conferred as a fifth-grade talent, and they were very angry.

Now it's just a matter of sniggering behind closed doors.

Gao Shilian was almost numb from laughter.

The niece was named a beauty, and she was proud of her colleagues for a long time yesterday.

"Uncle? Uncle?"

After recovering from his thoughts, Gao Shilian found that Changsun Wuji was frowning and staring at him.

"uncle?"

Changsun Wuji was a little puzzled: "Are you laughing so strangely just now?"

"Cough cough!"

Gao Shilian coughed twice, then gave Changsun Wuji a hard look: "What do you know, you brat!"

"Guanyin's servant girl is so favored by His Majesty, it is impossible to say that she will become a queen in the future!"

"At that time, you and I will not both be extremely human ministers?"

"Good or good..."

Changsun Wuji was still a little dissatisfied: "It's a pity that His Majesty is not very good today, and he can't follow the Ming Lord. If he has done something, what's the point of being a high official?"

"nonsense!"

Gao Shilian pointed at him bitterly: "Auxiliary machine, you have a family now, and you still say such things lightly? You don't care about yourself. Could it be that you don't care about your wife and children?"

Changsun Wuji was a little embarrassed: "It's just a few words when I'm with my uncle, I absolutely dare not say it outside..."

Gao Shilian snorted coldly, and then reprimanded: "Besides, how do you know that His Majesty is not a wise master?"

"According to today's court meeting, even if His Majesty is not a wise king, he is definitely not far behind!"

"Really?"

Changsun Wuji thought it was a bit funny, and said: "Uncle, I heard from my colleagues that His Majesty watched the ministers' discussions at the court meeting today as if they were watching a play, so Your Majesty can also..."

Gao Shilian glanced at him: "You only know one thing but not the other."

"Today, Mr. Wei Zheng Wei made a statement at the court meeting, and wanted to put a hundred officials in prison. This matter has attracted a lot of admonitions from all the ministers, saying that Mr. Wei's treacherous words have harmed the country, but Mr. Wei is going to be imprisoned as a crime!"

"what??"

Changsun Wuji was stunned, a little unbelievable for a moment: "There is such a thing? Could uncle be joking with me?"

Gao Shilian snorted coldly: "How can I have the time to amuse you?"

Seeing that his uncle's expression did not seem to be fake, Changsun Wuji couldn't calm down anymore, and asked eagerly, "Then what happened next? What happened later?"

Wei Zheng's direct name spread throughout the imperial court, and many passionate sons of officials in the capital regarded him as an idol, including Changsun Wuji.

In other words, there are groupies and fans in the capital.

Although Wei Zheng didn't know that he still had such a group of admirers, it didn't prevent these passionate young people from worshiping him.

Today, Sun Wuji, the head of the fan club, feels heartbroken and extremely angry when he hears that his idol has been dismissed and sent to prison.

A censor like Mr. Wei has been imprisoned. Can such a court be saved?

He clenched his fists tightly, only feeling a depression in his heart, which was hard to vent.

But at this time, Gao Shilian's voice came faintly: "Your Majesty will not punish Lord Wei despite the pressure of the officials."

"what??"

Changsun Wuji's expression froze, and the gloom in his heart had no continuation, and it was blank.

"Uncle, you didn't hear me wrong, did you?"

The eldest grandson Wuji, who had come back to his senses, was a little unbelievable: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

It's nothing else, it's just that other people's expectations of Li Gan are too low.

Everyone thinks he is a big fool, this is an inherent impression.

In this case, Li Qian didn't have to do good things at all, as long as he behaved like a normal person, he could surprise others.

What's more, under the pressure of hundreds of officials, to protect a minister like Wei Zheng, a normal emperor may not be willing to do it.

Now His Majesty has stepped a toe into Mingjun's circle.

Since I was a child, I have heard that His Royal Highness is such a dandy, but now that he is enthroned, he can do such a thing.

Incredible, unbelievable!
It took Changsun Wuji half an hour to reluctantly accept this fact, and took a sip of the tea on the table.

Those who can participate in the court meeting must be at least a fourth-rank member.

In the past, when he saw the sedan chairs of such important people from afar, he would stop and look at them for a while.

Occasionally, when I met my uncle while doing errands, I felt so majestic that I couldn't look directly at him.

That is the aura cultivated in a high position for a long time, without anger and prestige, a look can scare people for a long time.

Such a group of big figures are arguing against the government... Just thinking about it, you can imagine how fierce and terrifying the scene was.

Anyway, he absolutely can't handle it.

Changsun Wuji touched his nose in embarrassment, not knowing what to say.

Just now he joked that the Emperor is coming, but now that he thinks about it, he is still too young.

Gao Shilian glanced at him, picked up his teacup and took a sip.

"Auxiliary machine, will you still be so frizzy in the future, will you jump to conclusions lightly?"

Changsun Wuji blushed when he thought of how excited he was just now: "No more, uncle."

Only then did Gao Shilian lightly nodded his head: "Judging from today's events, although His Majesty has no understanding of government affairs, his disposition is still good."

Changsun Wuji also nodded in approval, his expression extremely solemn.

His majesty's act of protecting his idol has greatly won the favor of Sun Wuji, the leader of the star chasers.

Li Gan, who was far away in the palace, never imagined that one day he would be the beneficiary of star chasing activities.

On the side, under the faint candlelight, Gao Shilian seemed to have not finished his words: "It's good to have a good heart... but it's just that the methods are a bit stiff, the temper is a bit stubborn, and the education I received when I was young is lacking..."

Changsun Wuji froze.

……

The Hall of Eternal Life is exquisitely decorated and brightly lit.

After bringing Wu Meiniang back from Yulin Garden, the sky was completely dark.

Li Qian's stomach was empty, and Wei Zhongxian started to prepare meals.

"Big Companion! The lunch in the Qianyang Hall was okay today, but the one last night was much worse!"

Li Qian looked at Wei Zhongxian with dissatisfaction on his face: "Go and tell Guanglu Temple that if you return the food as yesterday, I will settle the score with them!"
