The ministers all stroked their beards and pondered, appreciating the Emperor's good intentions.
As the rightful owner, the emperor was secretly enjoying himself at the holy case.
As for the canonization of Qi Xiaotong as the head of the county, it is basically based on the case of Mrs. Guo. The two methods are very similar, and they have the same purpose.
This method not only demonstrates the emperor's great favor, but also avoids the hidden worry of having a big tail. It is indeed the best choice.
The key is, you can save money~~
However, what made the emperor feel even more proud was that this move killed two birds with one stone. It not only gave Qi Yu face, but also put a bridle on the fierce horse.
It's not up to you to enter my Li family's genealogy.
In fact, in addition to the option of canonization, there are other alternative methods. For example, include her directly in the harem, make her a beauty, etc.
As the king of a country, of course he has this right.
However, the emperor quietly erased this option without even thinking about it.
He doesn't want to wake up in the morning and look in the mirror and ask: Is my head okay?
Isn't it?
Others don't know how powerful that girl is, but I have witnessed it with my own eyes. Now that we know the danger, how can we continue to be stupid and feed the tiger with our own bodies?
After several trade-offs, the emperor finally decided on the method of canonizing the county lord.
As for the ministers, after whispering among themselves for a while, they all turned their attention to Li Zuoyi, the royal family's Zongzheng.
As the family representative in charge of the royal family tree, shouldn't he take a step forward at this time?
Under pressure, Li Zuoyi had no choice but to bite the bullet and make a statement: "In my opinion, this move is somewhat inappropriate."
The emperor's face tightened upon hearing this, and he said rather displeasedly: "Tell me, what's wrong with it?"
"Your Majesty, this woman's identity is suspected to be the bloodthirsty and cruel Jade-faced Rakshasa. Although this is just an unsubstantiated rumor, its influence is huge. If someone like her enters our Li family tree, it may It is detrimental to the royal wisdom."
"this……"
The emperor smiled awkwardly, and then said seriously: "Even you yourself said that this is an unsubstantiated rumor. If it is a rumor, why bother?"
That's true!
No one believed the theory that the Jade-faced Rakshasa was Qi Yu's daughter. Now that the emperor's golden conclusion has been added, it can basically be sealed.
But the ministers didn't know that the Holy Emperor deliberately pretended to be confused this time, and openly staged a lie without blushing in front of everyone.
Yin Jun looked at Lu Boxuan who was also hesitant to speak, and then shook his head decisively, indicating to him that this matter should not be followed.
Too much mixing.
Just go with the flow.
However, he always felt that there seemed to be a strange smell hidden in this so-called benefit. As for what it was, he couldn't tell.
Okay, let's do this for now.
When the emperor saw that the ministers had no objections, he pressed his big hand and stamped the imperial edict that had been prepared with a vermilion seal.
The results are in.
Except for Zong Zheng and Li Zuoyi who seemed to have some complaints, everyone else looked happy.
The Minister of Revenue thinks that as long as you don't ask me for money, everything can be easily discussed.
The Minister of War is also very happy. As long as Qi Yu is not given more power, other methods are acceptable.
…
Three days later.
A strange thing suddenly happened in Dagu Port of Shuntian Prefecture.
Said that a "strange ship" appeared there that could move forward automatically without setting sail.
Some people joked, what kind of weird thing is this?
It is common sense that any ship can drift forward without sailing as long as it goes downstream.
Some commentators said: The truth is not what you think.
It is reported that this is an official ship from Qiongzhou Province. It travels against the wind from south to north. It is by no means drifting with the waves.
Like This……
It is indeed a strange thing.
And, the more I think about it, the less I understand.
Just when the curious people wanted to go and find out, they heard that the big ship had left the port and returned last night.
In response, the official from Shibo joked: Want to see it? Wait until next time.
This large ship is naturally Qiongzhou Province's new steam engine ship, which is the one being tested.
Its mission on this trip is not complicated, it is simply responsible for transmitting and delivering messages.
In addition to official documents, it also brought a large pile of personal letters along the way.
For example, Meng Lanshan wrote to his son Meng Jiming, Luo Yuan wrote to his grandson, and Zhou asked his daughter-in-law to ghostwrite it to his second aunt Cao, etc.
However, among these letters, there is one that is slightly special.
"Eh~~"
"He actually got enlightened?"
After Yin Jun read the letter, he couldn't help but feel happy and couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.
In this way, wouldn't the village man suddenly change and become his own brother-in-law?
He seemed to have seen a scene in the future: As his uncle, he was sitting on top, while Qi Yu was bending down to serve him tea...
Gee, just thinking about it makes me feel comfortable.
I remember that the last time we met, he politely declined again and again like Liu Xiahui. Look now, he actually took the initiative to write a letter to inquire.
If this isn't enlightenment, what is it?
No matter how you say it, it can be considered a good thing after many hardships, and it finally achieved positive results.
From now on, we will be considered a family.
Thinking of this, he quickly put down the letter in his hand and wrote a remonstrance to impeach the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
This old guy actually wants to increase the tax burden in the Qiongzhou area to improve the current situation of the weak national treasury. Do you think this is unethical?
snort!
If you dare to pick off Qi Yu's wool, then I dare to open fire on you.
This is the saying that one hand is not as close as four fingers.
After writing the impeachment memorial, Yin Jun immediately rushed to his mother's residence, eager to share the joy with him.
This is a happy event and should be reported as soon as possible.
Yin Jun ran away happily.
In the eyes of outsiders, Yin's mother is considered a relatively open-minded person. Although she advocates following the rules, she does not stick to the rules. She is flexible and flexible when she should be.
Take Yin Tao's marriage as an example. She didn't interfere too much. Even if she described it, it was just the right touch. She would never betray her parents' majesty and make a grab without discussion.
Although she is open-minded, it doesn't mean she doesn't think about it secretly.
These thoughts every day and every night were very exhausting, and over time, she actually suffered from a small illness called "suffering".
Is this a minor illness?
Yes, the imperial doctor did say that in order to reassure her.
At this moment, Yin Juncheng was on his knees, slouching and waiting for his mother to drink water and take medicine. After everything was settled, he started to talk about his sister.
"What? You said our Tao'er... was attracted by that person?"
"If I tell my mother, this is absolutely true."
After saying that, Yin Jun took out the letter from Qi Yu and held it in front of his mother with both hands.
Mother Yin was a literate person. After receiving it, she immediately spread it out and started reading silently.
Her lips were pursed and her face was filled with a smile, as if she had fallen into a honey jar, wandering very much.
Yin Jun just watched silently without disturbing him.
Half the time of burning incense passed like this.
Looking again, Mother Yin still maintained her previous smiling posture, as if she was frozen.
Yin Jun concealed his surprise and called out a few times, but in the end, he didn't get the slightest response.
If you look at her breathing again, where is there any breath left?
