When Ji Ming saw everyone looking at him, they all looked sideways and felt happy.
Unexpectedly, my words really frightened them.
Ji Ming sighed in his heart: Alas, I am just too honest and easy to talk to. If I could be more articulate, I wouldn't be targeted by others every day.
Maybe even save the leg.
Thinking about it now, it’s no wonder that Huaiguzi is loved by His Majesty. Apart from clever words and charming words, there is nothing else.
It's nothing more than Huaiguzi's flattery, smooth flow, and no leakage.
If I had understood it earlier, I would surely have become the most popular person in front of His Majesty, the most trusted person.
How could there be sophora millet in my sight?
Even if it does appear, the lame one must be Huaiguzi.
Ji Ming was filled with ecstasy, and for a moment he forgot that he was still kneeling.
He even felt that although he was kneeling, he was taller than Huaiguzi who was standing.
Ying Zheng was also puzzled as to when Ji Ming became so sharp-tongued. It seemed that he didn't learn anything good.
Ji Ming continued: "Your Majesty, maybe this is news that Huaiguzi deliberately released."
Ying Zheng closed his eyes slightly and said nothing, but wanted to see what kind of flowers Ji Ming could come up with.
Li Shui and Li Xin looked at each other. Li Xin whispered to Li Shui: "It seems that Ji Ming has gone crazy."
"In order to get rid of suspicion, I have started biting randomly."
"Brother Huai, tell me, after Ji Ming finishes analyzing you, will he bite me again and say that I spread the news?"
Li Shui frowned and looked at Li Xin and said, "Although Ji Ming is a little crazy, he's not stupid yet."
"As we all know, Brother Li is a soldier. He loves making money and has no interest in getting involved in calligraphy education."
Li Xin said quietly: "Am I so superficial in the eyes of you literati?"
Li Shui chuckled and said, "Brother Li, you can't say that. This is not superficial, this is specialization in the art."
"Brother Li is a soldier, leading troops to fight and defend the country. He has made outstanding achievements. If you pick a Confucian scholar without the power to tie a chicken, he is not qualified to do this."
"This is what those Confucian scholars cannot compare to you, Brother Li."
"Besides, Brother Li is not only capable of fighting on the battlefield with great bravery, but he can also cook wine and drink tea with me, and enjoy cursive calligraphy together."
"The one who can take care of both is none other than Brother Li."
After hearing this, Li Xin felt very relieved. He tried his best to hold back his laughter and his face turned red.
Li Xin touched Li Shui, smiled and whispered, "Brother Huai is the one who understands me."
Li Shui raised his eyebrows and said softly: "Of course."
Ying Zheng raised his head and frowned when he saw Li Shui and Li Xin talking animatedly.
When Li Shui and Li Xin found out, they immediately stood up and listened to what Ji Ming was going to say.
Ji Ming said slowly: "Your Majesty, releasing the news about promoting Xingcao will do no harm to Huaiguzi."
"If it succeeds at this time, Huaiguzi will naturally be happy. Not only will he achieve success in business affairs, but he will also be able to get involved in the education world."
"If this matter fails, it will be ignored in front of His Majesty. Besides, it is difficult to verify whether it is the news released by Huaiguzi."
"So, Your Majesty, Huaiguzi is also the most suspect."
Ying Zheng said with a half-smile, "Your analysis is quite comprehensive."
"So anyway, this matter has nothing to do with you?"
Ji Ming nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, I only think about how to serve Your Majesty. How can I have so many thoughts?"
After Wang Wanli Si and others heard this, they immediately sneered, how could such shameless words be said.
Is Ji Ming enlightened recently? Is there something wrong with him? Is he bored in the palace studying sophora and millet every day?
This shameless way of talking is really catching up with Huaiguzi.
As expected, they have all been in the palace, and all of them are talented people.
As soon as Ji Ming finished speaking, Li Shui stepped forward and shouted: "Ji Ming."
Ji Ming, who was kneeling on the ground, subconsciously turned his head and said, "Huh?"
Suddenly, Li Shui rounded his arms and slapped Ji Ming in the face with a big slap.
The sound of "pop" immediately stunned Ji Ming.
Just now I was immersed in the joy of fantasy, who could have imagined that I would be slapped hard in the next moment.
The key point is that there was no warning. Now Ji Ming only felt like stars were popping up in his eyes, his ears were buzzing, and the corner of his mouth was a little sweet.
Ji Ming wiped his mouth and found that the corners of his mouth were bleeding from Huaiguzi's slap.
Li Xin secretly gave Huai Guzi a thumbs up and praised: "Brother Huai's skills are so good now."
"It can make people bleed now."
"If it were me, there might not be any bleeding, at least not on the surface. It's most likely internal bleeding, commonly known as internal injury."
Li Shui returned a look to Li Xin, as if to say: After all, if you slap him a few times, you will be able to master the technique.
Besides, slapping in the face itself has a deterrent effect on the other party. If there is internal bleeding, it will not have any effect.
Li Shui and Li Xin were still flirting with each other.
Ying Zheng frowned slightly, and Wang Wan and Li Si were also stunned.
Chunyu Yue on the side was tasting the Qin wine given by His Majesty, and sighed in his heart: Isn’t this Sophora japonica and millet addictive to slap people?
From time to time, I would slap people for fun. Although I was very angry when I heard Ji Ming's nonsense, but after all, how could I act like this in front of His Majesty.
Huaiguzi and Li Xin really didn't learn each other's strengths, but they learned each other's shortcomings.
Li Xin gradually became eloquent, and Li Shui also took advantage of Li Xin's side to do some reckless things.
Chunyu Yue saw this and felt helpless in his heart. He shook his head and drank another glass of Qin wine.
When Ji Ming came back to his senses, he covered half of his face, glared angrily at Li Shui with big eyes, and said, "Huai Guzi, you, you dare to hit me."
Li Shui smiled and said, "You make arrogant comments about government affairs, speculate on His Majesty, frame important ministers, and slap you."
Ji Ming covered his face, turned to Ying Zheng and cried: "Your Majesty, I don't have any slaves. Huaiguzi is bullying people too much. Please make the decision, Your Majesty."
Li Shui smiled and said, "No? You just said so much and analyzed Prime Minister Wang, Master Li, and me thoroughly."
"I picked it very cleanly."
"If you have a problem with me, Huaiguzi, that's all. I didn't expect that you are also dissatisfied with the Prime Minister and Mr. Li."
"If things continue like this, depending on your subjective judgment, as long as we don't agree with you, you will find various reasons to get rid of us."
It had to be Huaiguzi. At this time, Ji Ming trembled after hearing this, his legs were shaking with fear, and he cried and said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, this servant must never dare."
"How can this slave have so many thoughts?"
Li Shui sneered: "You don't? Haha, don't you know how to accept two apprentices?"
"If you don't have one, will you ask your two apprentices to go out of the palace regularly to collect any useful information for you?"
Ji Ming's eyes widened: 'You, you...'
