There’s a Dragon Girl in the Desolate Sea: 732|Sixty-second dragon scales (four)

Sixty-second dragon scales (four)

I have to say that Lu You is a person with excellent psychological quality. After the previous punishment, he did not lose sight of the crowd, but stood firmly on the side of the little empress and became Linglong's supporter.

He does have real talents and practical learning, and he is not only a stalker. Such a person is naturally a generation of worthy officials. Unfortunately, he is too ambitious. Right now, he is willing to be driven by Linglong, and he will be able to do so without hesitation in the future. Betrayed her to pursue his great cause. This person is good at both civil and military, and he has a good appearance. He speaks and does things without leakage. He has a gentleman's demeanor. If he hadn't read history Linglong, maybe he would have trusted him like a little empress.

After Lu You stood up to show his support, Qin Xiao also came out. After that, the courtiers who were loyal to Emperor Xiaozong also expressed their support. The neutral faction courtiers also stood up after deliberation, and the rest didn't say much. Basically they belong to the faction of the three kings. I have to mention that when King Wu died, the ministers who had secretly loyal to him could hardly sleep all day and all night. Their position in the court was embarrassing, and the other three vassal kings would definitely not. Reuse them, and the little queen is still young. Basically, when the King of Wu dies, their future will be cut off. Therefore, recently, I have been honestly doing my duty.

The matter of the prince's entry into the capital was settled in this way. The vassal kings were unwilling and had no choice. Qin Xiao was still staring at him!

The three places in Qi, Shu, Jiaodong and East China are about half a month away from the capital, which means that the feudal lords still need to stay in Beijing for at least half a month, and this is not counting the time to upload the letter.

Five days later, the new King Wu entered Beijing.

When he saw Linglong, he showed a grateful expression, knelt down to thank Linglong, and handed over the seal of the king himself, which represented absolute surrender, and this attitude alone was much smarter than the other three kings.

Qin Ce also came with King Wu. He divided the 3,000 elite soldiers into two parts. Half stayed in Wu and the other half escorted King Wu to Beijing.

The king of Wu has lingering fears. His biological mother died early, his father is not to be seen, and his concubine and concubine are even more bitter. The father is about to take back his position as the heir, so he is very careful in doing things, and he has no ambition. In the eyes of the old King Wu, he is really an unworthy son. Therefore, King Wu is twenty-three this year, and he is still a bachelor. Not even a concubine.

Because of his respectful and docile attitude, Linglong asked him what reward he wanted. King Wu didn't hide either. He was shy and looked forward to telling Linglong, hoping that Linglong would give him a marriage.

Long Long:...

When did she start working part-time as a matchmaker? !

There are many mansions under the emperor's name, so she gave King Wu a mansion, which is the mansion of King Wu. In the future, King Wu will not return to Wu land. At the same time, the concubine and the concubine of the old King Wu will also return to the capital. Wu Di will be exquisite in the future. King Wu has no objection to this, his father is dead, he can't ignore his father's woman, and his father's son is also his younger brother, he can't be thrown into the street to fend for himself, just living with those two poisonous snakes. Together, Wu Wang is inevitably a little frightened. To be honest, if His Majesty had not sent General Qin to Wu, he would have died many times!

Therefore, in addition to wanting to marry a wife, he also has a request, that is, not to live with the concubine and concubine of the old King Wu. He knows that he has no heart, and he can't fight against others. Maybe one day he will die violently, and he will not be able to avenge himself even underground!

These are all small requests, which Linglong graciously accepted. In addition, she summoned Qin Ce. Compared with her elder brother Qin Xiao, Qin Ce has a baby face. He is also nineteen years old this year, but he looks tender. Very, very upright as a person. After that, Linglong sent him back to Wu. Once the old King of Wu died, the new King of Wu entered the capital, and there were no leaders in Wu. This was an opportunity to clean up. In addition, she also dispatched a loyal civil servant to Emperor Xiaozong. Although the land of Wu was already in her pocket, the hundred-footed worm was dead and not stiff. Although the old King Wu died, his subordinates were still there. Qin Ce I have to assist the adult to complete the cleaning of Wu land.

In recent years, there have been no major incidents at the border, and Qin Ce's bones are itching.

Qin Xiao stayed in Beijing and was driven by Linglong. There was only one Hu Xiuhe around her to use, and most of the loyal ministers were civil officials, who were not as skilled as Qin Xiao.

It was during the period of following Linglong that Qin Xiao realized that this eleven-year-old little empress should not be underestimated. It's just... this method is a bit... how should I put it, some of it is a different way.

There are inevitably some officials who are not convinced, or there are old-fashioned people who despise women, especially those officials who have nothing to do on weekdays. The last article, anyway, there is nothing in this world that they can't impeach, even if Linglong sleeps in, they can tirelessly force and talk a lot. If it wasn't for Linglong's mandatory limit on the number of words in the memorial, this group of sour scholars could write tens of thousands of words!

They do not belong to the vassal king, nor are they loyal to the little empress. What they love most is fame, and their lifelong pursuit is also a "name". Linglong said that Emperor Xiaozong had a very good temper, and he was so accustomed to giving these people that he couldn't help but want to be full of mouths every day.

She was thinking about having an official assessment, and all those who failed the assessment would be fined, and if it was serious, she would be demoted and dismissed from office!

Yes, what Qin Xiao and Hu Xiuhe do the most is not to help the society, not to assist the empress, but to inquire about news. The investigator's ancestor was eighteen generations, and down to the time when the person under investigation changed his pants every few days, he knew everything about the details.

These officials, when Emperor Xiaozong was there, would never be finished every day. If he didn't like this and he couldn't like that, Emperor Xiaozong could endure it, but Linglong wanted to sew up their mouths for a long time. The pits are all buried alive!

Emperor Xiaozong had only one queen in the harem, and they couldn't get used to it. That booklet used to come flying like snowflakes, and they persuaded them one by one, and even attacked Empress Dowager Ren'an because of her jealousy. Later, Empress Dowager Ren'an did not have children for many years. Only to give birth to a princess for Emperor Xiaozong, this group of officials is even more crazy, and they can't wait to call Empress Dowager Ren'an a demon empress who brings disaster to the country and everyone gets it, until the mild-tempered Emperor Xiaozong gets angry, they calm down a little. a little.

Now that the little queen is enthroned as emperor, they start again.

The most annoying thing for Linglong is that someone preaches to her, not to mention that these people are not out of love, but just want to make a name for herself! At first, she didn't speak when she saw the first note criticizing her having one hundred and twenty-eight dishes in one lunch was too extravagant and wasteful.

The little queen seemed to acquiesce in her own wrongdoing, and the officials became more and more excited.

Afterwards, some officials went up and down to impeach the little empress for being a little late. As an emperor, she was not diligent enough, and Linglong didn't speak.

She said that she liked kitty things and even kept parrots to play with them. Linglong remained silent.

……

Until the early morning of another day, an old speaker with white beard and hair relied on his seniority. Anyway, it would not be a few years before one leg stepped into the coffin. It is better to get a clear name before dying and take the initiative. Out of the column, he bluntly said that the empress was still sleeping with Empress Dowager Ren'an at such an age, that she was not motivated, did not grow, and had no responsibility. She also said that the Jiaodong earthquake a few days ago, I think it was the empress who angered the gods, and she wanted to make a guilt and order to calm the hearts of the people. .

Not to mention Linglong, even Qin Xiao was a little angry.

It's okay to say that the Empress is extravagant and playful, but can this Jiaodong Earthquake be blamed on the Empress?

Jiaodong is located in the northeast, surrounded by mountains. There are 18 mountain passes in the whole of Jiaodong. Due to the steep terrain, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. These 18 passes are also known as the 18 Ghost Gate Passes. The people living there are used to it, so how could it be said by this old man that the Jiaodong Earthquake was the fault of the empress? It also angered the gods to issue an edict... Which emperor is willing to issue an edict?

Linglong squinted her eyes, "Oh, listen to what you said, Jiaodong earthquake, is it that I angered God? I made a sin, and Jiaodong has never moved since then?"

The old man said: "Whether God is willing to forgive His Majesty depends on His Majesty's sincerity."

If Linglong commits a crime against her own co-authorship, but Jiaodong still moves in the future, then it's not God's fault, nor is it the old talker's nonsense, but her own lack of sincerity?

The corner of King Jiaodong's mouth cracked slightly, but he wanted to see what else this little girl could do! Among the vassal kings, there were four fiefdoms, but Jiaodong was the most dangerous. There were minerals in Qi, grain and grass in Wu, and even the miasma-dense Shu land had developed traffic. Only in Jiaodong, although there were eighteen gates of ghosts, it was difficult to get in and out, even with the outside world. Contact is difficult, so the King of Jiaodong is always the one with the lowest strength among the vassal kings. In addition, Jiaodong often moves because of the special geographical environment. Smaller ones are better, and more serious ones can kill hundreds of thousands. people! Compared with the prosperous and extravagant capital of Beijing, Jiaodong appears so poor, ridiculous and impoverished!

The king of Jiaodong had always dreamed of returning to Beijing, but he was not taken over, but he came back with an upright and adored man!

Old Yanguan kept babbling, Linglong listened to him calmly, without saying a word during the period, Qin Xiao had been in Beijing for more than a month, and he basically served as the personal guard of the little empress, Master Hu Xiuhe Inward, he is in charge, and the two are the right-hand men of the little empress. The Qin family army and the factory guard specialize in different directions, but they are both good at inquiring about news. This old speaker may be very clean himself, so he dares to treat the little empress like this. challenge.

Ken live in the world and always have to deal with others. The old speaker also has a wife, children, relatives and friends. He does not make mistakes. Can his family not make mistakes too? Looking at his mouth full of words, you can see that he is an old-fashioned old-fashioned man who can't turn his head. It is not easy to catch him, but it is much easier to catch his family.

The factory guards are best at doing these shady things, so Linglong let the old speaker finish, and then asked: "According to what you mean, if I don't punish myself, God will give me a more terrible punishment? I love the people like a son, so should I do what you said, and make an edict against myself?"

The old man stalked his neck: "This is exactly what I mean."

Linglong shook her head in despair: "God has already given me the most terrifying punishment. With a subject like you, I don't know how many crimes I have committed in my past life."

Thinking that in her last life, she had never touched a leaf among thousands of flowers. There are countless people who want to have a story with her. Unfortunately, she never stops for anyone. I don't know how many innocent boys and girls' hearts have been hurt. Woolen cloth!

Even if the old man was a fool, he could hear Linglong mocking himself. His old face flushed red, and he stammered: "Your Majesty, your Majesty's words like this are simply, simply insulting! I am loyal to Your Majesty, and the sun and the moon can learn from it!"

Linglong said blankly, "I heard that you have five daughters, right or not?"

The old speaker suddenly became vigilant: "His Majesty asked the minister's personal affairs?"

"I'm not allowed to ask your private affairs, why do you care about my private affairs?"

The old man suffocated for a while, and said with strong words: "Your Majesty is the monarch of a country, and his actions are the example of the world. How can a minister compare with His Majesty?"

"I also heard that four of the five daughters of the Qing family died, and two of them were drowned by the old mother of the Qing family. Is there such a thing?"

Dali dynasties placed preference on sons over daughters, even in the homes of officials. Lao Yanguan had only five daughters in his life. In ancient times when the average life expectancy was only in the fifties, his old mother will be seventy this year. But still sensible. The old man said that the official had no children in the year of his destiny. His old mother heard what a wandering Taoist said, saying why the family always had granddaughters but no grandchildren, it was because there were too many granddaughters, which hindered the anger of men. To crack, there is only one way...

His old mother is old and confused, and she really did a foolish thing to hold her grandson! But that was all when Lao Yanguan was young. He turned a blind eye at first, until his four daughters were gone, and his wife gave birth to another daughter! The old mother in the family realized that she was afraid of being deceived. The old man was a dutiful son. He strictly ordered the family members not to disclose this matter, and also sent everyone around the old mother. Who would have thought that there is no airtight wall under the sky.

Qin family army and factory guard joined forces, what old things can't be found out?

"Listening to what the Qing family just said, I feel that beasts still have the love of licking calves, but the mother of the Qing family was able to drown her two granddaughters cruelly, which shows that her human nature is weak and inferior to pigs and dogs. Such a person is actually the Qing family. Mother... the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, I have to doubt the character of the Qing family."

Linglong really annoyed this group of people, so she spoke rudely, the old speaker's face was instantly pale, Linglong still refused to let go, and chased after her victory: "Again, I don't know if the mother of the Qing family is this Did you do too many things that hurt the heavens and the truth, and angered the gods, only to end up with no children and no grandchildren?"

For Lao Yanguan, apart from his clear name, the only thing that can hurt him is the four words "cut son and never grandson".

He hates and is angry, how can he not think that he will be so angry with the little queen that he can't speak, but he buried these things in his heart and no one told anyone, how did the little queen know? After today, I am afraid it will spread all over the world! Don't talk about a clear name, it's not bad if there is no infamy!

After all, it is also the year of destiny, and what kind of literati style is important, the old speaker fainted immediately, Linglong waved his hand, Hu Xiuhe understood, and immediately called someone in to drag the old speaker away. , Your Majesty is still young, what can I do if I'm scared!

"Next."

After Linglong finished speaking, there was no sound for a long time, and she was suddenly disappointed: "What's the matter, no one wants to talk? What about those who said that I was not diligent enough to play with things? Come out and break your head?"

The courtiers didn't understand the meaning of breaking the head, but they subconsciously felt that it was not a good word, and the old speaker was so angry that he was so angry that no one had anything to do with pickling at home, but for that matter, his own family It doesn't matter if you know it, but His Majesty is going to take it out and execute it in public... It's a light thing to lose your reputation if you accidentally lose your reputation, and the black gauze cap can be a big problem!

The hall was silent, Linglong shook his head: "I usually ignore you, all of you are more happy than quails, I really want to care, but they are all quiet like chickens, I think some people are really virtuous If you don’t match your position, you can’t divide your lord’s worries with your salary, so what’s the use of asking you?”

These words were serious, and they immediately knelt down for a long time, all saying that His Majesty had forgiven them.

Linglong hated the feeling of being an emperor so much, she rubbed her brows and wanted to throw all of them out, but she finally restrained and even calmly summoned the six ministers and other important ministers to the imperial court The study room, to discuss the evaluation system for officials.

Of course she won't use the system of modern human society to imitate it, but she has to find something to do for these guys, make them suffer, know that she is not easy to mess with, and find more reasons from themselves , isn't she not allowed to have one hundred and twenty-eight dishes for one meal, and she is not allowed to get up late and be lazy? Okay, it works from top to bottom, what she wants to do, they do it too! Why does this group of ministers rest for three days a month, but she only has one day as an emperor? Why does she stay in the palace all day long and can't go anywhere, yet they are so free?

Come on, hurt each other!

The first thing Linglong proposed was the punch-in policy. After all the ministers completed the work progress of the day in their respective jobs, they could go back to the house earlier if they had nothing to do, but not now! Treat her as a social animal of 996! In addition, work evaluation and assessment must be carried out, and reports should be reported layer by layer. There must be requirements in all aspects of character, attitude, ability and official handling level. Those who fail to pass will be fined the first time, the second official will be demoted by one level, and the three times will be directly dismissed!

With such a harsh system, all the ministers looked at each other and wanted to see each other, but no one wanted to be that early bird, Qin Xiao didn't look sideways, anyway, this matter had nothing to do with him, and it wasn't too harsh to ask him to come see, There are many officials in the DPRK who are vegetarians. These officials came from the imperial examinations at the beginning. After getting the official body, they devoted themselves to the camp. They have long lost their original intention. The DPRK is like a pool of stagnant water. Doing real things for the people?

Your Majesty's assessment system may seem harsh, but it's actually nothing more than the most basic requirements. Such as the group of idle officials in the Hanlin Academy, those with low official positions have no qualifications for early court, and they even lie down every day with nothing to do and wait for their salary! People like this are everywhere in the court, at least with this assessment system, they no longer dare to be late and leave early to make mistakes.

Linglong also only made these requests. She knows the truth that haste is not enough, and it was because of the old man who came forward this time that she deliberately got angry and shocked the ministers, just like she wanted to open a window , but threatened others that the roof would be lifted, and everyone was shocked and quickly discouraged. At this time, she said that she wanted to open a window, and everyone could easily accept her request, but she did not intend to lift the roof, just wanted to open it. Just a window.

In the future, the frogs will be boiled in warm water and improved little by little. Sooner or later, they will no longer dare to have two hearts, and they will no longer dare to make trouble for her!

Unfortunately, Lao Yanguan has become the latest unfortunate person to be slaughtered. He originally wanted to use Linglong to make a name for himself, but he didn't get anything, and he even sacrificed himself and his mother! Not only that, the little empress also said to a large extent that for the sake of his no credit and hard work over the years, he would not punish him and his old mother, just dismiss him as an official, and verbally reprimanded him, but ninety-five. Supreme, Jinkou Yuyan, is tantamount to knocking his whole family to the bottom, and there will be no day to turn over!

The lessons learned by the old speaker have also taught many people a lesson. Don't forget that this is a ruthless character who can kill a vassal king at the age of eleven because of her good-tempered appearance recently!

Think about it carefully, who is really taking advantage of the people who oppose the little empress? Wu Wang, who has been suffocating, will not talk about it. Even if Emperor Xiaozong is around, the other three vassal kings are arrogant and domineering. Which one is better? When they were triumphant, the little empress had already secretly repaired the book and went to the border gate, which made Qin Zheng send the eldest son to lead the army of the Qin family to come and make the siege of the capital impregnable. More than a bad reputation!

Empress Dowager Ren'an loves her daughter very much. She can't help much in the harem. The only thing she can do is to make some delicious treats for her daughter. This is also Empress Dowager Ren'an's greatest hobby after the death of Emperor Xiaozong.

Seeing her daughter walk in with her head drooping, Empress Dowager Ren'an was so distressed that she pulled her into her arms and touched her small face and hands, "I've lost weight, and I've lost weight again."

There is a kind of thin, so your mother thinks you are thin.

Linglong slumped her shoulders. She buried her head on her mother's chest and rubbed her head. Then she let out a long breath: "...Being an emperor is not fun at all."

Empress Dowager Ren'an patted her head.

But she couldn't tell her daughters not to be emperors. If her daughters didn't become emperors, they would immediately be swallowed up by those people, and it would be hard to leave a bone. "If your father was still there, my son wouldn't have worked so hard."

"It's not hard work, but it's not hard work." Linglong said honestly, "It's not hard work, but it's not bad at all. You can't do it directly when you're angry."

Empress Dowager Ren'an:...

God is pitiful, how nasty that group of courtiers are to turn her daughter into such a violent look!

Although the previous dynasty was not involved, when Emperor Xiaozong was there, their husband and wife were very close. Emperor Xiaozong often talked about the previous dynasty and listened to Empress Dowager Ren'an. How annoying and stubborn those old scholars were. Empress Dowager Ren'an still know. Her daughter is not as good-tempered as her husband, she actually only wants to beat people instead of beheading. Empress Dowager Ren'an has a strange feeling of happiness in her heart... When Emperor Xiaozong was reluctant to let his daughter practice martial arts, what a correct decision!
