Seeing the emperor's sudden appearance, Qi Xiaotong was quite surprised: "Looking at you like this, do you know my father?"

"Yes, we do know each other!" The emperor nodded without comment and said frankly.

"Yeah?"

"Um!"

Xiaotong still didn't believe it. You know, there are so many people pretending to be idiots these days. Not to mention the fact that such a crowded family has appeared in his own home.

How about testing him?

"Okay, first tell me what my dad looks like? Also, when and where did you meet my dad?"

"Haha, you are quite smart, you actually know how to test." The emperor smiled and said leisurely: "He... is just a little fat..."

"You're talking nonsense! My father is a handsome young man, where is the weight?" Xiaotong snorted and said displeased.

that is!

Mom said that daddy is the most handsome man in the world and the most family-oriented man, no one can compare with him!

"You haven't said yet, how did you meet?"

"The two of us were in... a restaurant in Fucheng, Yongchuan Prefecture..."

The emperor briefly introduced the so-called understanding process using a mixture of truth and ambiguity. Roughly speaking, the story of Linjiang's appointment was chosen.

When Xiaotong saw what he said about having a nose and eyes, she basically believed him. Since he was an old friend of his father's since childhood, he naturally couldn't be too rude.

So, she performed the crotch in an orderly manner.

In this way, the previous stiff atmosphere has relaxed.

After chatting for a while, the emperor took the opportunity to ask: "I heard that your father was sent to Qiongzhou as an official. What do your family think about this matter? Well, and the common people, they are How did you comment?"

The incident of Qi Yufen's killing of King Yan caused a great uproar. It can be said that no one knew about it.

Therefore, the emperor wanted to take this opportunity to ask the people what they really thought.

This kind of sound cannot be heard above the court.

Unexpectedly, Xiaotong's reaction was huge, saying: "Your wording is inappropriate. I want to correct it. What my father did was not a normal official appointment at all, but a demotion!" Then, she said He said angrily: "As for the evaluation, I'd better learn from the common people's opinions. This seems more fair..."

"Okay, then tell me."

"The common people have all said that that big long insect has no ability to work hard on his limbs, cannot distinguish between grains, loyal and evil, good and evil, and handles things in a mess! I miss my father. He is not afraid of life and death, and loyally protects his master. In the end, But he ended up being exiled. This move really chilled the hearts of loyal and righteous officials in the world!"

In fact, these words were not spoken by the common people at all, but she accidentally heard them from the mouth of her mentor Luo Yuan, then processed them through her relatively "extreme" art, and finally expressed them from her own standpoint.

The main reason why he invited officials from all over the world to support him was to create a context of public outrage.

Like this?

The emperor's heart trembled when he heard this, and a sense of grievance came to his mind.

I did understand the meaning of these words, but I didn't understand the word 'that big long worm'.

Can't understand?

Then I'll give you some pointers.

Xiaotong didn't say anything, but pointed her delicate hand far away, indicating to him to see and understand for himself.

What are you looking at?

The emperor turned his head out of curiosity and saw a large paper dragon waiting to dance on the ground not far away.

dragon?

This...the meaning is self-evident.

The emperor looked stunned. He really couldn't understand how he could become a big worm in the eyes of the people, and he was also the kind of person who couldn't work hard with his limbs and couldn't separate the grains.

The rating is not high!

This time, the emperor's pride was really hurt.

You know, he has always been determined to be a moral king, and he has strict requirements on himself in governing the country. He never thought that in the end he would get such a ridiculing evaluation.

Can this child's words be trusted?

It should be credible!

As the saying goes: A child's words are unbridled. How can a child in his golden age lie to others?

"well……"

The depressed emperor was about to leave indifferently, when he suddenly heard Qi Xiaotong sigh again: "Oh, it's just that the long worm was careless and incompetent. Unexpectedly, he is still an illiterate person."

What!

Why have I become an illiterate person again?

The emperor's face turned cold when he heard this, and he said displeasedly: "My child, please don't say such words again in the future. It won't be of any benefit to you. According to my estimation, the big man doesn't like to hear such remarks very much." ."

Xiaotong snorted softly and quoted history: "In the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong once asked Wei Zheng: 'What is light in life, and what is dark?' Wei Zheng replied: 'Listen together and you will be bright, and believe only half-heartedly and you will be dark. 'If you can't even listen to harsh advice, how can you accept good advice? He compares himself to Emperor Qin and Han Wu, but he doesn't know that the two are open-minded kings. If he is really such a small-minded person, there is no need to compare. Let’s judge high or low!”

this……

The emperor was suddenly startled and thought to himself: This child is not only superb in martial arts, but also well versed in the history of China! It is not difficult to tell from her conversation that her literary talent is absolutely outstanding.

Then the question comes, who is her mentor?

Is it Qi Yu?

This doesn't make sense. In my impression, this kid doesn't understand martial arts at all. How can he teach him?

Forget it, don't ask around, it's just a girl, it won't make a big difference.

However, the emperor still agreed with the statement of "Guang Na Liang Jian". He calmed down and asked again: "Haha, tell me, that long worm...oh no, it's that big shot. How can he not know how to count?" Already?"

When this matter was mentioned, Xiaotong became angry. She gritted her silver teeth and said angrily: "That damn old man, Minister of the Ministry of Finance, only allocated 200,000 shi of grain to Qiongzhou. This is not enough to fill the gap between the teeth. That long worm is really confused, he can't even count, he just slaps his forehead and approves! What do you think he doesn't know how to count? "

The emperor looked confused and said curiously: "Two hundred thousand shi is already a lot of food, how can it be said that it is stuffed between the teeth?"

"Don't believe it? Let me do the math for you! There are about 300,000 people in Qiongzhou. If they share the 200,000 shi of grain, each person can only carry less than 40 kilograms! Do you think it is enough to eat this little amount? ?" Qi Xiaotong said it casually without thinking.

Um? Is this woman good at arithmetic?

Haha, I almost forgot, his father Qi Yu is a mathematician.

Well, the professor is good!

To be honest, I really didn't calculate the average carefully, and I was indeed negligent.

It's not too late to make up for the lost situation.

Tomorrow I will go to the Minister of Household Affairs to discuss and ask him to allocate more grain to Qi Yu to ease the dilemma.

The emperor nodded sincerely, indicating that he was taught, and then encouraged: "In addition to not knowing how to count, does that person have anything else?"

"Yes!" Xiaotong still refused to give up, and seemed to be unwilling to complain, and said: "I can't compliment him on his literary and political skills. Compared with the late emperor, he is far behind."

Eight feet away? How far is that?

Also, why do you say that?

Seeing the emperor's confused look, Xiaotong explained: "I think back then, when the locust plague broke out in Yongchuan Prefecture, the late emperor not only issued an edict of sin, but also exempted the disaster area from taxes for three years. Look at this stingy road again Changchong, he just acted like he cared about it, but he didn’t mention a word about the tax exemption! From this point of view, he is far less wise than the late emperor. But this will be a pain for my father..."

These words were complaints that Luo Yuan once made, but they were quoted by Xiaotong at this time.

The emperor frowned and sighed secretly: I also want to avoid it, but the treasury...

Forget it, now that this girl has spoken, I will be generous and exempt Qiongzhou from taxes for three years.

Qi Yu never dreamed that his daughter would unintentionally help him a lot.

This is three years of tax exemption!

For the barren Qiongzhou Prefecture, it is definitely a timely help, a desperate opportunity.

While the emperor was secretly praising his sage, a woman's angry voice suddenly came to his ears: "You are such a scoundrel! How dare you bully my children!"

Um? What kind of scumbag?

Are you talking about me?

It seems like...

The emperor's face froze, and he felt as if a flock of crows were flying by his ears~~
