Chapter 360 Long Yuejiao News 6
"Count? What's your last name?" He frowned and asked again.

"My surname is Zhao." Duanmu Xiaoxiao replied with a snort.

Duanmulei concentrated, pondered for a few seconds and then said, "Is that Zhao Yunling who was conferred the title by me two days ago?"

"It should be him." She replied leisurely.

Duanmu Lei closed his eyes and said, "It's okay to let you see him, but you have to promise me one thing."

"Let's talk." Duanmu Xiaoxiao said straightforwardly.

Duanmulei said calmly, "Marry him!"

Duanmu Xiaoxiao's eyes protruded from fright, she looked at him in disbelief and said, "Brother, you only let me see him if I marry him, why?"

Duanmu Lei flicked his sleeves, his dark eyes glanced at the ornaments not far away, and said in a gentle tone, "You are not young anymore, it's time to get married, I know your temperament, if I choose a husband-in-law for you, you Most likely you don't like this Zhao Yunling, since you want to see him so much, I'm afraid he is someone in your heart, he is unmarried and less than two years older than you, so he is just right for you."

"I don't have him in my heart. I want to see him because we haven't seen each other for a long time." Duanmu Xiaoxiao explained with a blushing face.

Duanmulei smiled and said, "Since you don't have him in your heart, then forget about it, but you can't summon him, and you can't meet him privately, if you let me know, don't blame me for being rude!"

Duanmu Xiaoxiao was very unwilling, but she could only glared at him angrily, then shook her sleeves and left.

Looking at her back, Duanmulei frowned and said, "It looks like it's time to marry her off, I've spoiled her temper, so rude."

Looking at him, Xiao Liumei chuckled, "The princess is still young, and this time she was rude because she was in a hurry. She is very obedient when she sees her normally."

"Liu Mei." Duanmu Lei called her.

Xiao Liu lowered his eyebrows in response.

Duanmulei raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't speak up for her, I know you're good, but sometimes you have to make some judgments, be tolerant when you should be tolerant, and don't be tolerant when you shouldn't be tolerant."

Xiao Liumei shook her head, and said in a soft voice, "You can't do this, she is your only sister, you can't treat her so harshly, she may be a little headstrong sometimes, but you have to tolerate her, that's the only way, your blood relatives The love will become closer, otherwise, it will only drift away."

Duanmulei nodded, and said to her with bright eyes, "You are very reasonable, I will listen to you."

Xiao Liu raised his eyebrows, and a look of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

After a while, she looked at him with a light smile and said, "Your Majesty, is there anything bothering you recently?"

"No." Duanmu Lei shook his head.

Xiao Liumei reached out to help him rub his temples, and said leisurely, "Is it true, or do you not want to tell my concubine?"

"What did you hear?" Duanmu Lei narrowed his eyes and asked calmly.

Xiao Liumei shook her head, "I didn't hear anything, I just heard from the eunuch serving the emperor that you have been drinking more and more tea recently."

You sighed, and she said again, "If it's not that you have something to worry about, if it's not that you don't want to sleep in the middle of the night, why do you need to drink so much tea?"

Duanmu Lei pursed his lower lip and said, "Although I have been in power for more than a month, most of the time in the court, I am still the same as before, and I have no right to speak. Once I open my mouth to say something, those old officials will be eloquent. Rebutting me, saying that I am too young and not thoughtful, I am very annoying, I have already won the power, why do I have to listen to those ministers talking about it!"

"The emperor is new in power, and it is common to have some backlash, unless the emperor replaces those old ministers and uses his own fresh blood."

Duanmulei frowned, "Is this okay? If I do this, I'm afraid the court will fall into chaos, right?" It's not that he has never thought about this idea, but he is not stupid and knows the consequences, so he bears the trouble to think about it. move them.

Xiao Liumei chuckled lightly and said, "All peace is transformed from a period of chaos. If you want to be stable, you have to experience chaos. If you are afraid of the consequences, then it will not be a big deal."

"You are right." Duanmu Lei nodded in agreement.

After being silent for a while, he said, "It's just that I don't have talents on hand now, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do this for a while. Let's replace those old officials when I find talents."

Xiao Liu narrowed his eyes and murmured, "I don't know how long it will be until the emperor finds a talent. I'm afraid that something will happen in the future. If the emperor doesn't mind, I have a plan."

"Say it." He said loudly.

Xiao Liu raised his eyebrows and whispered softly, "The concubine's father has a few capable generals under his command, the emperor can borrow them and use them first, and return them to the concubine's father when he finds talents."

Duanmulei shook his head, and said in a deep voice, "No, they are from Xiao Guo, not from Daqing. If we let them come here, the common people will definitely say it. The most fearful thing about being emperor is that the people's hearts will not be stable. in this way."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, these people are not from our country Xiao, but came from Daqing." Xiao Liumei replied calmly.

"From Daqing?" Duanmulei looked at her puzzled.

Xiao Liumei covered his lips and smiled, and said, "At the beginning, Emperor Father was traveling around looking for talents, and he came to Daqing by chance. In Daqing, he met several talents who were not expected to meet him. Because he admired their talents, he invited them back to Xiao Country to help him. work."

"So it is." He murmured.

Looking at him with pretty eyes, Xiao Liumei asked leisurely, "How is it? Does the emperor accept the method of courtiers and concubines?"

"Let me think about it." Duanmu Lei said lightly.

Xiao Liumei nodded, "Your Majesty, think about it carefully, I will not bother you as a concubine, and go back to the palace to rest first."

After saying that, she gracefully stepped out of the palace.

Back in her bedroom, Duanmu Xiaoxiao lost her temper without saying a word and broke several wooden chairs.

Seeing this, the maid serving her leaned over and said, "Princess, is it true that the emperor does not allow you to summon him?"

Duanmu Xiaoxiao responded, "Yes!"

The maid pursed her lips and said, "That's why the servant won't let you go, the princess, and let myself get angry for nothing, why bother."

"How dare you speak sarcastic words?" Duanmu Xiaoxiao yelled at her.

The palace maid hurriedly shook her head and said, "Your servant dare not, the princess calms down."

"I dare you." She frowned at her.

The court lady knelt down with a plop and said, "Princess, I really don't dare to, my servant just said something wrong, please forgive me the guilt of this servant."

Seeing her frightened like this, Duanmu Xiaoxiao snorted, "Remember, don't laugh at me like this in the future, otherwise I will never forgive you."

The court lady nodded, "Say, the servant girl won't do it next time."

Duanmu Xiaoxiao responded with satisfaction and said, "Get up."

"Yes." She answered.

Duanmu Xiaoxiao lay on the table and said, "Brother said, I can see him if I want, but I have to agree to marry him."
