Ma Zhou walked towards Li Shimin.
As soon as he arrived, he saluted Li Shimin.
"My minister, Ma Zhou, pays homage to His Majesty, His Royal Highness the Queen, and has met all the royal concubines!"
When Li Shimin saw it was Ma Zhou, he was confused at first.
Then he asked: "Ma Zhou, you came just in time, how about you come and take a look at the photos I took?"
"Your Majesty, I have something to do!" Ma Zhou said.
This surprised Li Shimin.
"Oh? What is it? Tell me!"
Li Shimin asked with a smile. He was very happy today.
Therefore, the tone of speaking became very relaxed.
At this time, Ma Zhou said: "Your Majesty, please resign!"
At this time, Li Shimin was originally happy, but his whole expression became very wrong.
"Why?" His tone became very stern.
This is not good.
Ma Zhou actually resigned and came to resign when he was happy.
"My role in the court is getting smaller and smaller, so I want to pursue a different life."
Ma Zhou said so.
Li Shimin said: "Do you think your official position is too small?"
Regarding Li Shimin’s question.
Ma Zhou didn't know what to say.
In fact, this is also the case.
"Your Majesty, I think there should be different choices in life, so I want to go out and see the outside world."
"If you feel that the official position is too small, then I can help you and see what kind of official you want. The Sixth Department is very short of people now. Why don't you go to the Sixth Department and become a minister. If you do well, I can give you the title of Minister. Job!"
Li Shimin was trying to make a fool of himself. If it were normal times, Ma Zhou might have believed it, but it was different now. He wanted to go to Shengtang Group.
Instead of staying in the palace.
So, he refused.
"Your Majesty, I believe that the choice of life is not limited to being an official. You should experience life more. Just like your Majesty, enjoy the happiness of family. However, I am too busy in the court and have no time of my own. time!"
Ma Zhou added that, in fact, he had little to say and no money.
Not having money is the most deadly thing.
Therefore, he felt that he should leave the court and do what he felt was right.
Li Shimin still didn't understand it. Now he was no longer in the mood to play.
"Ma Zhou, tell me the truth!" Li Shimin said again.
"Your Majesty, these are all the truth, that's what I think."
He didn't say where he was going, but that was exactly what he had in mind.
Li Shimin was shocked.
I was still worried about recruiting people before, but now I have to lose another horse week.
Li Chunfeng just ran away before.
He thought of Li Chunfeng.
Therefore, he asked: "Did Li Chunfeng say something to you?"
Li Shimin was indeed Li Shimin, and he guessed it right away.
"Your Majesty, these are what I think in my heart and have nothing to do with others."
Ma Zhou is not stupid. If he talks too much, he will not be able to run away.
If you just talk about your own reasons, it would be easier to talk about it.
Li Shimin sighed.
"Ma Zhou, Ma Zhou, I see your contribution. I have always wanted to give you the opportunity to come to your place, but I have never been able to find the opportunity, so..."
Li Shimin was playing the tenderness card. If Ma Zhou agreed to him, he might not be able to run away next time.
So he has to firm up his ideas.
He said: "Your Majesty, please let me go."
Li Shimin's face became very unhappy.
At this time, Empress Changsun said: "Your Majesty, Ma Zhou's heart is not in the court, and forcing him is not the solution."
Li Shimin listened to Queen Changsun's persuasion.
But he still wanted to try.
"Ma Zhou, I treat you well!"
"Your Majesty, I know! But I..."
"That's all, just go, go!"
In the end, Li Shimin didn't want to keep Ma Zhou, because he said so and couldn't keep him any longer.
Might as well let him leave.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"The matter at hand..."
"Your Majesty, I have already given my account!"
"Okay, you go. I hope you can come back one day. I still value you very much." Li Shimin said.
Regarding the matter between Li Shimin and Ma Zhou, it was actually regarded as a good story.
At that time, Ma Zhou put forward more than 20 suggestions through Chang He, each of which was to win Li Shimin's heart. Li Shimin thought that Chang He did not have this ability, so he asked him, and Chang He immediately said that it was written by his family's retainer Ma Zhou.
At that time, Li Shimin directly summoned Ma Zhou. Before Ma Zhou arrived, Li Shimin was very anxious and sent people to urge him four times. When Ma Zhou arrived, Li Shimin chatted with him for a long time.
After that, Ma Zhou also performed very well and went straight up. But later Li Shimin put less emphasis on him, because it was impossible for an emperor to focus on a minister.
At this time, Ma Zhou was in this position, which was very embarrassing.
Therefore, he wants to pursue a place where he can be reused more.
Just like the Shengtang Group.
Shengtang Group attaches great importance to talents. As long as you have talents, you will not be buried.
I'm afraid you don't have the talent.
And people without talent won't last long in the Shengtang Group.
And Ma Zhou's talent is obvious to all.
Therefore, he will definitely be reused when he comes to Shengtang Group.
There is no doubt about this.
Originally, Li Min thought that Ma Zhou would not succeed this time, but he impressed Li Shimin with his sincerity.
Let Li Shi agree to Ma Zhou.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I am resigning!" Ma Zhou did not say much, nor did he say that he would come back in the future.
Because it should be impossible to come back.
He backed out.
Li Shimin sighed, now he couldn't even eat.
Because of this incident, he was in a bad mood. The previous incident with Li Chunfeng had made him depressed for a long time.
Today was another horse week, how could he still be happy?
And many concubines did not dare to say anything.
Empress Changsun had no choice but to persuade: "Your Majesty, the weather is quite cold. How about we go back?"
If you're not having fun, there's no point in staying here.
But Li Shimin said: "No, let's stay here first. The scenery here is good, which makes people not feel so bad."
It can be felt that Li Shimin is very disappointed.
But the imperial court was not the Tang Dynasty Group.
If so, maybe it would be the same as Shengtang Group.
But having said that, the flow of talents to Shengtang Group is also a good thing, right?
In this case, it can also contribute to the development of Shengtang Group.
Now Ma Zhou retired very happily and walked outside.
I saw Dai Zhou all the time.
Dai Zhou asked: "How is it?"
"Dai Zhou, you have to think carefully about what I say. I will go back and take off my official uniform now, and then I will go to the Shengtang Group!"
So, Ma Zhou succeeded.
I really didn't expect it to be successful.
After saying that, Ma Zhou left.
He got into a car and left.
Dai Zhou watched Ma Zhou leave, feeling a little conflicted in his heart.
He thought to himself, can he do the same?
