Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

To establish a Ministry of Commerce outside the six-ministry system, you first need to formulate a complete set of charters, including the scope of affairs in charge, the connection with the six ministries, the selection of Ministry of Commerce officials, internal assessment, etc.

The most critical thing is who takes charge of the overall situation in the first place. Officials in the DPRK, whether civil or professional, know nothing about business, so they are naturally incompetent.

In the end, the emperor and Yan Mu made a final decision, and the Queen Mother was temporarily in charge of the Ministry of Commerce. After getting on the right track, they would be evaluated and selected step by step.

The ministers did not have any objections. After all, the Queen Mother had the brand name Lingyun and used this brand to drive the national economy. The South and Xizhou quickly regained their vitality and even rose under her layout, so no one was more suitable than her.

After Liu Yunxiang took over, she started from scratch and slowly built it up. When formulating the law, she proposed a law that shocked the court.

That is: only merchant students can participate in the selection of the Ministry of Commerce, and merchant students, regardless of gender, can pass the examination blocked by the imperial court and enter the Ministry of Commerce.

As soon as this article came out, the whole court was immediately in a panic.

Liu Yunxiang knew that this would be the case, so he was not in a hurry and just tried to discuss it slowly.

On this day, Liu Yunxiang returned to the palace from the outside. Thinking that since his son came back from the outside, the mother and son had not had a good talk, so they happened to be free today, so they headed towards the son's palace.

When she passed by, she saw Xingyi walking out, thinking about something, frowning slightly. Behind her, in addition to the two little maids serving her, there was also a little girl, about fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing cotton clothes, with a delicate face, looking back three times at a time.

Xingyi didn't see her until the palace maid next to her reminded her, and he smiled and stepped forward to salute.

The two palace maids beside her also stepped forward to salute. Seeing that the girl was stunned, they pulled her and asked her to imitate their salutes.

The girl raised her head and glanced at Liu Yunxiang first. She was timid and a little panicked, and saluted casually.

Liu Yunxiang glanced at the girl, then looked away and looked at Xingyi, "Is she from outside the palace?"

Xingyi nodded, "Yan'er and the others brought it back from the southwest."

Liu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why did they bring this girl back? She has no family?"

"It was said that this girl's family members were killed by that corrupt official. When Yan'er and the others were investigating, this girl helped a lot. Later, when they were leaving, they saw that the girl was helpless, so they took her back. Shengjing. Yan'er said that they originally wanted to arrange it outside the palace, but the girl was afraid that they would leave her. No matter how she tried to persuade them, she insisted on following them. In this way, Yan'er took her back to the palace and treated her as a little palace maid. That’s fine.”

"That's it."

Liu Yunxiang glanced at the girl again, "He asked you to help arrange it?"

"Yes." Xingyi sighed slightly, "She doesn't understand any rules, so she has to learn them first. I'm hesitating whether to send her directly to the Department of Education and other new palace maids to learn, or to study in my palace. .”

"What did your brother say?"

"He said it was all up to me. That's why I found it difficult."

Liu Yunxiang smiled and said, "Since it is up to you to arrange it, you should follow the rules and do whatever you want."

Xing Yi blinked and immediately understood what Liu Yunxiang meant. If Yan'er wanted her to treat this girl specially, he would explain it to her and just follow the rules.

"I'm thinking too much." Liu Yunxiang let Xingyi go ahead and was about to walk towards the inner hall when the girl who had been silent suddenly spoke.

"Are you Brother Yan's mother?"

Liu Yunxiang stopped and looked at the girl. "Brother Yan", this relationship is unusual.

Liu Yunxiang's expression did not change and he asked calmly: "What is your name?"

"My original name was Yatou. Brother Yan thought this name was not good, so he changed my name to Qingdai."

"Qingdai? This name is indeed better than the girl's."

"Brother Yan told me that his mother is the most beautiful woman in the world. After meeting the Queen Mother today, I realized that this is absolutely true."

Liu Yunxiang laughed and said, "You have a sweet mouth."

"Brother Yan also told Qingdai a lot about you. Qingdai can feel it. Brother Yan loves you very much."

"He has talked a lot with you."

"Once Brother Yan had a high fever, Qingdai waited at his bedside and wiped his body with warm water without rest all night. Fortunately, the hard work paid off, and Brother Yan finally had his fever subsided the next day. That night, he She confessed her feelings to Qing Dai."

Liu Yunxiang lowered his eyes, these words seemed to be nodding to her. This little girl wants to say that she has a special relationship with Yan'er and wants them to treat her specially.

Being smart is smart, but revealing your scheming too early is just a little cleverness.

"Xingyi, take her to the Teaching Department."

After Liu Yunxiang finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the inner hall without looking at Qingdai.

"Queen Mother..."

"Okay, if you really don't understand any rules, how can you be so mean in front of the Queen Mother?" Xingyi's face darkened at that moment.

Only then did Qingdai realize that her little thoughts had been seen through. Her cheeks turned red and she didn't dare to say anything more.

Liu Yunxiang entered the inner hall and saw Yan'er writing something very seriously. Even when she walked up to him, he didn't notice it. Liu Yunxiang looked down and saw several pieces of paper hanging on the table, all filled with writing. She picked up one and read it. It should be a policy paper.

"Hey, mother, when did you come?" Yan'er finished writing a paragraph and looked up to think about it before seeing Liu Yunxiang.

"You have to go to court before dawn, and don't go down to court until almost noon. You have a hurried lunch, and in the afternoon you have to discuss matters with the ministers in the upper study. You can finally rest, but you still have to catch up on the homework assigned by Taoist Master Hongxuan."

Having said this, Liu Yunxiang stretched out his hand and touched his son's head distressedly, "Mom hasn't asked you yet, have you ever been happy since you took this position?" (End of Chapter)
