Chapter 179
Liu Bai had already thought of a countermeasure for this matter, and bowed to Ying Zheng, the leader.

"Father, the 50 people who will be on the list tomorrow will go to the hall, and the father will take the test in person, so that the candidates who fail the list can choose some people they trust to come with them."

"Since they have doubts, I will give them a satisfactory answer when the time comes, and I hope the emperor will approve it!"

Ying Zheng was still thinking about the feasibility of this matter, Feng Quji was the first to object.

"The reference candidates are all in-service officials. May I ask who dares to stand up and confront the son-in-law in court?"

On the surface, there were about 400 officials from various counties and counties participating in the assessment.

But to do what Liu Bai said, I'm afraid not many people have the courage to stand up.

This is not a normal visit to the court meeting, but to find something.

What's more, some people from remote counties and counties can't even see His Majesty's face after taking office.

Now let them confront the royal son-in-law in front of His Majesty, what is the difference from courting death?
Liu Bai was right when he thought about it.

No matter how talented they are, few people dare to stand up when facing the father.

Li Si turned his eyes slightly, looked at Ying Zheng and bowed.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to ask them to select officials. Since most of the candidates are dissatisfied, it is better to let them come together."

"After you have completed the assessment of the people on the list, then let them confront the son-in-law. I wonder what your majesty would like?"

Feng Quji looked at Li Si, and was overjoyed.

The reason why he didn't agree with Liu Bai's proposal just now was because he was afraid that Feng Ru would be pushed out.

I was thinking of a solution, but I didn't expect Li Xiang to help him.

If all the candidates come here, under the premise that the law does not blame the public, no matter what they say at that time, His Majesty will not be able to blame them.

In front of so many people, Liu Bairuo couldn't explain why, and he had no right to do so many things...

Thinking of this, Feng Quji immediately agreed.

"Your Majesty, I think Li Xiang's words are very reasonable. Let all the examinees attend the class and avoid some unnecessary troubles!"

"My son also thinks what Li Xiang said is very true."

Since you all agree, do as you say!
Ying Zheng nodded immediately, agreeing to the matter.

After leaving the gate of the palace, Feng Quji glanced at the two people who were walking hand in hand, and walked out of the palace first.

He had to inform the candidates of this matter as soon as possible, so his influence among the candidates was naturally incomparable to others.

Sure enough, the candidates who were waiting knew that they could go to court to see His Majesty tomorrow.

Fear, excitement, gratitude... all kinds of emotions came to my heart.

Time was running out, so Feng Quji hurriedly recruited Feng Ru to make arrangements for tomorrow.

With hundreds of people going to court, it is impossible for everyone to speak.

It is necessary to find a few rhythmic ones and clarify the things to be said.

After Feng Ru took the order, he immediately recruited capable people, and gave orders like this...

After leaving the palace gate, Li Si and Liu Bai walked side by side.

"Is the son-in-law sure about what will happen tomorrow?"

Liu Bai nodded with ease.

"Of course, the prime minister doesn't need to worry too much."

Li Si felt relieved immediately.

He knew that the son-in-law never did anything he was not sure about.

While walking, Liu Bai suddenly asked.

"What is Hu Hai doing today?"

Li Si shook his head inexplicably.

The sons live in your Baishan almost all day, why come to ask me instead?

After arriving outside the palace, he hurriedly bid farewell to Li Si, and Liu Bai went straight to the mountain.

Brat, I promised well, and I will go to those courtiers' mansions to apologize today.

If you let me know you didn't go...

When they arrived on the mountain, Hu Hai was talking happily with Li You.

Liu Bai looked at Li You in surprise, didn't you all go down the mountain?

Seeing the meaning in his eyes, Li You hurriedly bowed to salute.

"My son-in-law, when I came down from the mountain, I ran into the eighteenth son by chance, that's why..."

"It's okay!"

After saying that, Liu Bai looked at Hu Hai who lowered his head to the side.

"what's wrong with you?"

Hu Hai took two steps back silently, half of his body hiding behind Li You.

"I was about to go, but I ran into Li You on the way, and it was a little late to receive him."

Li You, who was belatedly aware, realized that he was being used as a gun.

But a son, a son-in-law, what can he do?

I had to lower my head, pretending that I didn't understand anything.

Liu Bai didn't answer his criticism, but asked in a cold voice.

"Just say whether you want to go or not!"

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Hu Hai was a little anxious.

Unable to think of a solution, his eyes turned red instantly.

Liu Bai looked at him in surprise, you beat someone else and you cried yourself?

"You did well yesterday, why don't you go?"

Glancing at him aggrievedly, Hu Hai pursed his lips and said.

"I, I, I... As the prince of the empire, I actually went to the courtier's house to apologize, I..."

"Do you think it's embarrassing to behave like this and lose your status as a son?"

After thinking about it, Hu Hai nodded sincerely.

Seeing that he was honest, Liu Bai decided to teach him well.

"Corporal courtesy and virtuousness have been the virtues of those in high positions throughout the ages. Don't talk about the ancients, just talk about the father. When Li Xin led 20 troops to attack Chu, he was defeated. Do you know how the father invited General Wang to come out of the mountain?" ?”

When Wang Jian attacked Chu, Hu Hai was only a six or seven-year-old kid at that time.

Although he didn't know this at the time, he heard it from others later.

Seeing Liu Bai's question, Hu Hai muttered.

"At that time, the royal father went to the home of the old general Wang Pingyang, and urged the old general Wang to lead the troops to the expedition, and he complied with all the old general's requests."

"But the world was not unified at that time, and the father was only the King of Qin, so..."

Liu Bai looked at him with a half-smile.

"You mean, because the father was only a king at that time, not the lord of the world, he did this?"

Hu Hai glanced at him, then nodded.

"Then let me ask you, since the world has been unified, has Emperor Father been unreasonable to Old General Wang?"

After thinking for a moment, Hu Hai shook his head.

"Corporal courtesy, it doesn't matter how high or low you are, you are the prince of the empire, so your words and deeds represent the image of the imperial court..."

"Just imagine, if you personally visit the courtiers' homes, how would they feel? If you bully others, how would they feel?
"People's hearts are separated from each other. What everyone makes for others to see is different from what he thinks in his heart. Don't be deceived by appearances, but win their hearts!"

Hu Hai looked at him ignorantly.

"Could it be that I can win their hearts by apologizing to them?"

Liu Bai shook his head.

"No, but at least they won't hold resentment against you, let alone hold grudges against the Qin court because of your personal reasons!"

Hu Hai snorted and looked at Liu Bai with disdain.

"They are all courtiers of the emperor, how dare they be dissatisfied with the court?"

Liu Bai looked at Hu Hai in front of him, and felt a little impatient for a moment.

Why can't this brat understand?
"A single spark can start a prairie fire. As the son of an empire, what you should do is to help your father to stabilize the world, instead of making trouble everywhere!"

"No matter what, you have to go if you go today, or you have to go if you don't go, otherwise I will take you into the palace and let my father pay two hundred!"

Hu Hai looked at him full of dissatisfaction.

What, you say you can't but I will let the emperor beat me?
Li You on the side could hardly listen anymore.

What happened to this eighteenth son?

The son-in-law was so earnest, but he was not moved in the slightest.

Before Hu Hai could refute, a sound came from behind him.

"beat him!"

Hu Hai turned around only to find that, at some point, his brothers were standing quietly behind him.

At this time, he was full of anger and rushed towards him with his fists raised.

Skillfully curled up on the ground with his head in his arms, Hu Hai silently felt the love from his elder brothers.

Seeing this situation, Li You's eyes widened instantly.

Then look at the gentle and elegant eldest son, with his precarious three views, this is how to keep it!

Unexpectedly, after saluting Liu Bai, Fusu also joined the battle group.

Looking at Liu Bai's gaze, Li You was a little confused for a moment.

I... shouldn't join, right?
