How could Mengtian dare not say anything? He secretly glanced at his family ancestor and then said submissively: "...Ever since my mother came, she has been running the family with diligence. The Meng family has changed their habits and everything is in order. They get up every day after hearing the chicken, practice martial arts and literature. , practice self-cultivation diligently, keep your home clean and tidy, and everyone be self-disciplined..."
The old lady said with satisfaction: "That's right, Mr. Jiang, you understand. My strength is running the family with diligence."
Jiang Fan quickly cupped his hands: "Remember the old lady's teachings, Jiang Fan must be diligent in state affairs..."
"Fart!" the old lady suddenly interrupted.
Jiang Fan was stunned. Is there anything wrong with him?
The old lady glared at her: "I am a hard-working person, and I have to work hard to manage my family. What about you? What are you best at?"
Jiang Fan said in a daze, "I'm lazy..."
The old lady didn't expect him to say that, so she couldn't help but paused for a moment: "I'm just using myself as an example to let you think about the reason. Wushuang girl is the best at knowing people and responsibilities. Why do you want to supervise the country? It must be to do it. With your strengths, you brat is claiming to be the best in intelligence, how come you are the best?"
Jiang Fan was stunned, his eyes slowly condensed, and he said uncertainly for a while: "Could it be..."
The old lady said: "I finally have a good brain. What I said may not be entirely correct. I just want to remind you that if you think about everything from another perspective, you may not be unable to find a correct solution."
Jiang Fan was stunned. Of course Xiaocui knew that she was lazy, but she insisted on leaving this matter to herself... According to what the old lady said, could it be that she wanted to give full play to her own strengths...
But my greatest strength... seems to be laziness. Could it be that——
Governing the country by laziness?
However, these four words suddenly flashed through his mind like a bolt of lightning. Countless messages came to him in an instant, and finally his mind became enlightened.
Jiang Fan stayed there for a long time, his eyes finally became clear, and excitement appeared on his face.
"Thank you, old lady, for your advice." Jiang Fan cupped his fists and bowed at a 90-degree angle. The old lady was really talented, and I was sincerely convinced.
The old lady looked at him with satisfaction: "No wonder they say you are so alert. Yes, Wushuang girl did not misjudge the person. But again, I am just giving you a direction of thinking. What is going on? You still need to use more methods. Combined considerations, really want to understand Wushuang’s thoughts.”
Jiang Fan was so smart that he naturally understood what the old lady meant. But coincidentally, the old lady was right. This was really the case.
My heart was bright, the burden was gone, my whole body was relaxed, and I smiled happily: "Thanks to the old lady's guidance, the boy was confused for a while and thought about it. Now he understands what to do."
Yes, the old lady manages the family with diligence, why can't I run the country with laziness?
Xiaocui, it turns out that this is what you want. Haha, it’s really yours.
But if he wanted to let the old lady know about his idea, he would have to scold her.
Meng Laoshuai's eyes moved slightly at this moment, and he seemed to have some realization.
Only Montaigne and Lin Nanyan were confused, and they rarely looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
The old lady only came for a moment and already solved Jiang Fan's confusion. Afterwards, the old lady scolded the Meng family's ancestors and grandchildren angrily, and took Lin Nanyan back to the back hall to talk.
As soon as Lin Nanyan left, Montaigne suddenly became bored and restless for a long time before finally being kicked away by the impatient old commander.
Only Lao Shuai and Jiang Fan were left in the hall, and Jiang Fan handed her over: "I am glad that my brother has a good wife. Congratulations."
Meng Laoshuai waved his hand, but he could not hide his pride: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just that he's a bit hot-tempered."
Jiang Fan laughed, suddenly approached the old commander, and said with a smile: "Brother, I'm lazy, you can help me more in the court from now on..."
The old handsome man was all excited and stared at him: "You little bastard, you have bad intentions..."
——
Jiang Fan was finally satisfied with this trip to the Meng family. Originally he just wanted to ask the old commander to help him handle state affairs, but now he has figured out the general direction, his mind and body are smooth, and even his steps are much lighter.
So, I walked, looked around and no one was paying attention, and slipped into Huayang Palace.
Xiaocui is not here, this guy is obviously a little drifting...
It's night, and Prince Jiang doesn't go home at night.
But what's funny is that early the next morning, this guy was not in high spirits. Instead, he had a pair of panda eyes and was listless, with complaints written all over his face.
Obviously, some things don't work out, but some things can't be escaped.
Ever since, Prince Jiang went to court with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
Zhengyang Palace is in chaos.
The empress has not returned to court for many days, and many things in the court have no backbone, and all the big shots have a headache.
As expected today, His Majesty has still not returned. The three princes and nine ministers are quarreling with each other, and the great Qin court is like a vegetable market.
Li Xiu looked at the scene in front of him and sighed in his heart, this is the inevitable result of His Majesty's words.
Fortunately, the officials of Great Qin are very pragmatic and responsible. Although Gao Qi doesn't speak much, he and Meng Laoshuai are always in charge, and many things can still be handled normally and efficiently. However, some important matters do not have the empress's decree, which is not true. Good progress.
But His Majesty didn't know what to do. He hadn't returned to court for days, and memorials had piled up.
Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, he turned to look outside the palace, really hoping that His Majesty would return soon...
Um?
Just as Li Xiu was about to turn around, his eyes suddenly froze and he saw Meng Laoshuai accompanying a handsome young man in white, walking into the hall with unsteady steps.
Xiaoyao King?
Why did he come to the temple?
Pulling away the officials who were about to surround him, Li Xiu said loudly: "Duke, prince?"
Everyone was stunned and looked around. Sure enough, it was the old commander Meng Ao and King Xiaoyao who arrived.
Marshal Meng chuckled and said: "Prime Minister Li, colleagues, I'm a little late today because of something to do. I apologize for my pardon."
After everyone paid their respects, Li Xiu asked someone to move a chair to Jiang Fan.
After all, this person can be regarded as the king of Qin Dynasty, and he has this qualification.
Unexpectedly, Marshal Meng waved his hand: "Huh? No, no need. He will sit on top."
"Up...up?"
Everyone was stunned. Li Xiu looked suspiciously at the top of the main hall. There was only one chair there, the empress's jade phoenix throne.
"The Duke..."
Before Li Xiu could speak, Meng Ao said, "Everyone, give way first. We will wait until the person in charge is seated and we will talk."
Then he made an invitation gesture to Jiang Fan: "Your Majesty, please take a seat."
Everyone looked at Meng Ao's gesture and felt cold on the spot.
Soon someone reacted, and an official was shocked: "My lord! This is His Majesty's throne. What do you mean?"
There was an uproar. In His Majesty's absence, Meng Ao actually gave up the Xiaoyao throne to God. Could it be that... he was going to rebel?
These two words appeared in the minds of all the big guys almost at the same moment.
An even tough-minded civil servant jumped out at that moment and pointed his halberd at the old commander: "My lord, how can you be so audacious! This is treason!"
As soon as he said this, many people responded. At the same time, some generals looked outside, obviously to see if the old commander had brought any troops.
Meng Ao coughed and waved his hand: "Rebellion? What a stupid rebellion. Your Majesty has a decree. King Xiaoyao will supervise the country."
Everyone was stunned, Xiaoyao Wang Jianguo?
Impossible. Even if His Majesty goes out to send people to supervise the country, in terms of seniority, it should be Li Xiu or the old commander, or tall and handsome. How can this idle king be allowed to go into battle?
