Agent Abandoned Concubine: Tyrant, beg for favor

Chapter 184 Buying People's Hearts
In the main hall, there was no more noise, only a dead silence.

Everyone could clearly see the sword of Ouchi's guard just now, and the death of Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice could also be seen clearly.

Not long after the new emperor ascended the throne, these old foxes who had been in court for many years didn't feel any threat at first, but Su Ruoqi's actions today reminded them of the pressure of Huangwei.

Su Ruoqi narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the minister of the Ministry of War who was bowing his head.

The turmoil in Ping Ding this time involved the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of War.Wanting to come to the Minister of the Ministry of War, he also saw that he wanted to protect him for some necessary reasons, but based on what he did, he would definitely not make him feel better in the future, and it would also gradually weaken his power.

This old fox has a clear heart, and now it is the best policy to resign his old age and return to his hometown.

But Su Ruoqi was also happy to see this result, he asked: "Military Minister decided to retire and return home, but have you thought about it?"

"The old minister has made up his mind." The Minister of the Ministry of War clasped his hands and replied, "Now that the old minister is old, he is no longer suitable to sit in this position, and I am afraid it will be difficult to solve your majesty's worries and problems. It is better to hand it over to other capable people. Honestly, I have taken care of my life."

"It's really not appropriate to work too hard." Su Ruoqi nodded, "Then I agree."

As soon as the words fell, the veterans of His Highness immediately knelt down and thanked the Lord for his kindness.

After settling this mess, there was not a single "no" from Shangshang.

After retiring from the court, there are still many papers waiting for his review. In addition, there is still the end of this matter.

The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment was executed on the spot, and the Minister of the Ministry of War returned to his hometown. Now there are two important positions in the imperial court. He understands that he must hurry up to fill these two positions. There is a way to find out the details of everyone, and what he wants to do more is to inject new blood into the court, so that it is conducive to the stability of the imperial power.

After thinking about it, he suddenly remembered that Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice seemed to have a son, who was not much different from his own age, so he had heard of it when he was the prince.

This son is still famous in the imperial city, he is capable of both literature and martial arts, and is a handsome talent.

And the Minister of Rites has only accepted his kindness recently, so...

"I'll see you, Minister of Xuanli." After thinking for a while, Su Ruoqi ordered decisively to the people around him.

Not long after the imperial order was handed down, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites rushed over, Su Ruoqi raised his eyebrows, it seemed that he was really in a hurry to give the order, and the old Shangshu was in a bit of a panic like this.

When the Minister of Rites saw Su Ruoqi, he hurriedly kowtowed: "I see the emperor."

"Lord Lu, you don't need to be polite, get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After the Ministry of Rites Shangshu got up, he was still muttering in his heart, he couldn't figure out why the emperor asked him to enter the palace again, obviously it didn't take long for the matter of the Ministry of Punishment to be resolved.

Ignoring his nervousness, Su Ruoqi took the ink pen and made a mark on a memorial, then closed it and put it on the pile next to it.

After doing these actions, he looked up at the Minister of Rites again, and said, "I remember that Lu Qing still has a son."

"Yes, I do have a son." The Minister of Rites quickly answered, "But the dog is not strong enough, and he is still at home."

Su Ruoqi nodded clearly: "As a man, you have to make a fortune. When you have the opportunity, you should seize the opportunity."

These words contained hints, and the Minister of Rites showed astonishment on his face. In connection with these recent events, he vaguely understood what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd.The emperor was kind to their family, and the Minister of Rites did not hide his riddles with Su Ruoqi, he cupped his hands and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, if there is anything you can use the dog, just ask, the old minister's family is willing to do the same for His Majesty. "

Su Ruoqi knew how true these words were, a gratified smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he told the Minister of Rites what he thought.

He wanted to mention the son of the Minister of Rites to the position of Minister of the Ministry of War. Although the position of Minister of the Ministry of War was vacant, his qualifications and experience were not enough to take on important tasks. And served.

Knowing that the emperor thought so, Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites was quite shocked. He never expected that the emperor would use their family so much.

"Lu Qing tried his best to work for Daxia, and I believe that the people you teach will also contribute to Daxia." Su Ruoqi finally said, "This is what I expect from you."

Hearing this, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites immediately brushed off his robes and thanked him: "What is the virtue and ability of the old minister to have such trust from the Holy Majesty, your Majesty can rest assured that the old minister will do his best to serve His Majesty."

Seeing that the effect was achieved, Su Ruoqi was quite happy in his heart. If he didn't have a confidant in the court, then many things would be difficult.

After the Minister of Rites retired, he quickly drew up the imperial decree, just waiting to be issued.

After working hard for a day, Su Ruoqi let out a heavy breath, got up and walked to the window, looking at the scene outside, he suddenly thought of Yun Xi, wondering how she was doing in the palace, and whether she would be bored.

And the one in the Queen's Palace is really bored, trimming flowers and plants.

Yun Xi took the scissors, and cut here and there, that's right, she was pruning flowers and plants.

But in Wan Qing's words, this is not trimming flowers and plants, this is obviously destroying flowers and plants, but seeing Yunxi's expression that she is bored after everything is done, she wisely chose to keep silent.

"Your Majesty, if you feel bored, you can read a book." Jier observed for a long time, but couldn't help saying that she felt a little bit sorry for these flowers and plants, and they were all expensive.

Yun Xi turned her head and gave her a complicated smile. Ever since she came here, she has deeply understood a truth: reading is worse than sleeping.Not to mention those annotations that I can't understand, they are all "Tao Te Ching", "Nv Jie"...Anyway, she Yunxi can't read it.

In short, she can only understand some unspeakable things now... Thinking about it, this is really dramatic.

Jill wanted to say something, but someone came in from outside to spread the word.

"Your Majesty, the people around the Empress Dowager are here to let you see the Empress Dowager." A palace maid said with her head bowed.

Yun Xi stopped her hand that was destroying Hua Hua, looked at the little maid, and asked repeatedly: "Queen?"

"Yes."

Yun Xi stroked the handle of the scissors in her hands. She had an instinctive fear of the Queen Mother. Few people could give her this feeling, but this woman was in a high position after all, and it must be due to the temperament she had honed in the palace all year round.

But I don't know what the Queen Mother is looking for her this time. The recent incidents in the court have just been revealed, and she doesn't believe that the Queen Mother doesn't know about it.

She secretly speculated in her heart, but no matter how much she guessed, she might as well go to meet her immediately, and see what the queen mother said before making a decision.
