Your Majesty the Empress, I am really not a traitor!

The shrewd Old Wang immediately understood what Xia Yuxiao meant.

His Majesty asked himself to nominate candidates, and previously urged the consultant Cheng, who had been unknown not long ago, to be in charge of these important matters. This was undoubtedly intended to give this guy a great credit.

That being the case, the candidate recommended by the censor must be able to satisfy the conditions of not only being able to restrain the local powerful, but also knowing the details and dispatching and turnover, and knowing how to be low-key and restrained without grabbing credit.

And... this person had better be familiar with Qin Taiwei. In this way, on the one hand, he would be closer to Qin Taiwei, the top leader of the army, and it would be easier to deal with those tyrants. His Majesty explained his position.

"I... I recommend a person, but please forgive me, Your Majesty, this person is not a member of the palace."

After thinking for a moment, Wang Yushi said cautiously.

"But it's okay to say, I pardon you for not guilty." Xia Yuxiao didn't want to hear his tricks, so she simply said.

"I recommend that Qin Taiwei's younger sister, Qin Siyue, go to assist with the corresponding matters."

"..."

"what?!"

Qin Ji was stunned, he never expected that Wang Yushi would choose to let his younger sister come out to do this job...

"What's the matter, Qin Taiwei, isn't this normal?"

Unexpectedly, in the face of his surprise, some veterans above the court were just the opposite, acting as if it was a matter of course.

"Your Majesty, Siyue is still young, and she is not good at dealing with people..." Qin Ji hurriedly planned to dismiss this matter.

It's not that he doesn't want his sister to go out to practice and experience, the main thing is that, with her social fear posture, if she really leaves him and runs to other people's house to face off against a group of local snakes, she won't be able to shut herself up on the spot?

However, Xia Yuxiao raised her hand, beckoning him to be quiet first:

"Wang Yushi, continue talking. Why did you choose her?"

"Firstly, the local influence is deep. If an ordinary official is sent, I'm afraid they won't be able to suppress those people with evil intentions. Qin Siyue is the sister of the Taiwei, and others will not dare to act rashly; secondly, Miss Qin's talent Clever, she was in charge of the transportation of the imperial court's weapons and armor before, and she is familiar with the road; thirdly, Miss Qin's family is gentle, and she can share with Dr. Gu...uh, each other's strengths."

How else can I say that they are officials.

To put it more bluntly, "You can express your strengths with Dr. Gu", the low-emotional saying is: Dr. Gu, you are too straight-tempered, and you are easy to be killed if no one calms you down...

Chapter 65 Doubt

"But, Qin Siyue has hysteria..."

Qin Ji was also drunk, what happened to these ministers today, are they crazy?Although it was false that Qin Siyue had hysteria, the news released to the outside world was true. Do these ministers really dare to send a hysterical patient to prevent disasters?

"Actually, according to my observations, although Miss Qin and I have only met a few times recently, Miss Qin is generally very stable, and I have not heard of Miss Qin doing anything inappropriate. , you also took Miss Qin to follow the army, right?"

said a minister.

"but......"

Qin Ji was a little confused.

No matter how you think about this situation, it's not quite right. Are these ministers really so kind?

However, this is actually a very normal choice. Although Qin Siyue's external image is a pitiful and intelligent girl suddenly suffering from hysteria, her external performance can only be regarded as social fear at most, not mental problems.

The previous Qin Siyue was a talented woman who was well-known in Daxia even if she didn’t have the bonus of time travel. She was not like many girls who studied piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, learned how to care for husbands and children, but had a deep understanding of astronomy and geography because of family reasons. And a lot of historical knowledge, and even assisted in the compilation and polishing of Daxia's history books.

In most of the time-traveling works that Qin Ji knows, the original owner who is the protagonist is usually not capable, or has a cowardly character, or is poor in physical fitness and dies early.

But Qin Ji had to admit that it was not certain which side was more fierce when the two of them ran to Qin Ji's brother and sister.

Therefore, for Qin Siyue to be able to get such affirmation of her ability among the ministers, it must be the original owner's bonus.So much so that they thought that even if she was suffering from hysteria, as long as the symptoms were not serious, she could handle this kind of affairs.

"Qin Ji, don't refuse. I also understand Siyue's state. When I met her before, she didn't have any abnormalities, but she became more afraid of people. If it really doesn't work, if you don't worry about letting her Going out, you can let her handle government affairs by your side, anyway, she is an assistant, not the main person in charge."

Xia Yuxiao said so.

"...Well, I will go back and talk to her, but, Your Majesty, whether she is willing to do it or not, I hope His Majesty can respect her opinion on this point."

Qin Ji had no choice but to agree.

Of course, if it were someone else, if the emperor asked someone to do the work, if you still dare to tell the emperor to respect her opinion, it would probably be bad.

But Qin Ji has the confidence and foundation.

"Okay, I will edit a book, and you will take it home for her to read. I will let her choose what she chooses afterwards." Xia Yuxiao also knew that this request was a bit outrageous.

But when I think about it carefully, there is indeed no one as suitable as Qin Siyue in the court.

Although Qin Siyue's condition seems to be stable, she is still ill after all. Although there is a high probability that she can handle the work of assistant consultant Cheng, even if she has credit, she will not step into the officialdom and gain real power because of it of.

The ministers recommended Qin Siyue, on the one hand, because Qin Ji's power has become more and more powerful recently, and the right to speak has only increased, and most swingers are determined to curry favor with Qin Ji; on the other hand, they don't want to really see Qin Ji Ji's power was so great that he practiced cronyism and let family members compete for official positions.

The reason for recommending Qin Siyue is that this matter should not be too difficult for her, and she can get credit and honor through this, which can be regarded as flattering Qin Ji indirectly (at least it will not leave a bad impression), and also It will not affect the original power system in the court - after all, even if Qin Ji is not a man, considering his reputation and influence, he will not choose to really put his sick sister in the court to hold real power.

After all, there's really no need to force a younger sister up.First of all, she is a woman (although Daxia is relatively relaxed, but it is a characteristic of the era that women have a low status), and second, she also suffers from hysteria.

Xia Yuxiao has no reason to refuse this choice that can not only make up for the need for personnel, but also sell favors, and will not cause turmoil in the political situation that has just stabilized due to power issues.

"I would like to thank Your Majesty and all of you for your great love for my sister. If she agrees, believe me, everyone will not be disappointed."

Qin Ji said.

Of course, everyone also believes that Qin Siyue can do it. Her condition is very stable. As long as she does not get sick (literally), these things are not too difficult. It will help fix it, no difference.

Hey, I didn't expect that the abilities of the original pair of brothers and sisters in court would be affirmed by so many people. It's a pity that the pair of brothers and sisters have changed now...

and many more! ?

Qin Ji's pupils shrank suddenly, and he suddenly thought of a very important thing.

For some unknown reason, something that he has been ignoring since he came to this world:

Why did the original pair of brothers and sisters be taken away by them! ?

In many works that Qin Ji has read, this kind of time-traveling is often due to the accidental death of the original owner, and then the person who traveled over took over the body of the deceased.

but......

The brothers and sisters of the Qin family, judging from their previous memories, are powerful, rich and powerful, and they don't have even the slightest memory of the two before their death.

The physical conditions of the two are still considered healthy. Although Qin Siyue is a little weaker, she is only relatively weak in physical strength, and occasionally suffers from minor illnesses, so she will definitely not die suddenly.Moreover, how could two brothers and sisters die together at the same time! ?

You know, the period of time that the two brothers and sisters occupied the original owner was exactly the same.

There is no sign of death, and there is no trace of strangeness in the memory, as if someone has changed suddenly...

Such a consistent time, and no matter the original owner or the current two of them are brothers and sisters, I am afraid that this is definitely not a coincidence.

"What's the matter, Qin Taiwei?"

Prime Minister Long next to him suddenly noticed the change in Qin Ji's expression, so he asked.

Qin Ji recovered from his own thoughts: "Ah, it's nothing, I was just thinking about how to tell my sister about this when I go back."

Prime Minister Long frowned.

The Taiwei's eyes and expression just now didn't seem like he was thinking about something he was discussing with his sister, but more like...doubt and worry?

But he won't be nosy, since Qin Ji said so, he will believe it.

....................

After retiring, according to the usual practice, Xia Yuxiao left first, and then the other ministers withdrew one after another.Only Qin Ji was still standing there.

It was less than 3 minutes before all the ministers withdrew, Qin Ji heard the sound of footsteps and the friction of cloth.

Xia Yuxiao wore her grand embroidered gold black robe and returned to her jade throne from behind.

She calmly sat on the seat, crossed her legs, and looked at Qin Ji with a smile:

"Tell me, what were you thinking just now?"

Chapter 66 Questions and Answers

Qin Ji froze for a moment.

He didn't expect Xia Yuxiao to come back and ask him this question.

And you said you wanted to ask me and just stayed and asked, and you came back from behind on purpose.This is not about cross talk, but also pay attention to whether it will be a comeback?

"It's just some private matters. I still have some things in my mind, so I lost my composure for a while."

"I see." Xia Yuxiao tapped the armrest of the chair lightly with her fingers, "So I asked you what you were thinking. If you have any scruples or doubts, you can tell me if you don't mind."

"This......"

"After all, we will be a family in half a year. I think maybe we really need to communicate more."

Xia Yuxiao's words were not meant as a compliment. Since she decided to get engaged, she naturally didn't want her marriage to be too troublesome. Even if it was just a political marriage, it must be more or less emotional.

She communicated more with Qin Ji, and after a long time opened up to each other, maybe the relationship between the two would be much better.

"..." Qin Ji hesitated for a moment. Naturally, he would not reveal his true identity. It is not suitable to tell Xia Yuxiao about this kind of thing now. However, since the other party has come here to ask himself, If you blindly perfunctory, for the other party, I'm afraid it will also affect your own impression in his heart.

Thinking of this, he still opened his mouth:

"May I ask Your Majesty, do you really believe in the existence of gods—or, in other words, the existence of hands that control everything in the dark like the Holy Lord said by the Holy Bishop Church?"

Qin Ji is not sure about this.He is not a native of this world, and he doesn't know whether there is something far beyond his knowledge in this world.

He now suspects that it was not a coincidence that he and Siyue came to this world—the two came to this world together, and the original owner of the body they occupied after coming to this world was actually a relative with the same name as his brother and sister. brother and sister.

This kind of coincidence was so strange that he couldn't help wondering whether someone was manipulating all this behind the scenes.Moreover, he has not seriously suspected this since he came here...

It's like being passively ignored.

But he couldn't tell his situation directly, so he could only make sidelines about Xia Yuxiao.

However, something happened that he didn't expect.

Xia Yuxiao's originally relaxed body suddenly tensed up, and she stared at Qin Ji firmly.

Qin Ji has always had a relatively deep understanding of Xia Yuxiao, and in the memory of the original owner, he basically has a positive attitude towards Xia Yuxiao's character—even though the original owner thought things in his heart were more, um, too "loyalty".

However, even though he had seen Xia Yuxiao calculating and even threatening others, Qin Ji had never seen her like this.

It was an emotion that was difficult to conceal, it could no longer be called hostility, it could almost be said to be "hatred", even though Xia Yuxiao quickly managed her emotions, at that moment, Qin Ji really He felt the hatred that made him even a little scared.
