"Can't see me, can't see me."
"I want to eat, I want to eat~~~!"
"It's none of my business, you can go make trouble yourself."
Zhai Ku put his hands inside his sleeves and lowered his head to study his toes, but after half a glance, he could only see his fat belly.
Mrs. Yinglie also looked at him, but unfortunately her eyes were full of dissatisfaction. Zhai Ku's power was too bad. After all, he had only been in power for a few years. He was chosen for balance.
In fact, if you want to be the prime minister, you must not only have excellent internal affairs skills, but also be able to play with all the ministers.
But this group of officials all come from wealthy families. In their opinion, who is this damn fat guy? There is no way they can choose you now.
Whenever you don't like it, a few families will use their strength, and the fat guy will just roll down from the top.
This is also where Mrs. Yinglie is extremely dissatisfied. Zhai Ku's ability is only limited to internal affairs, but cannot balance the relationship between ministers.
In the past, those who had too much power would be suppressed by the king, but Zhai Ku was probably the only one whose power was too low. Even if Mrs. Yinglie wanted to use him to check and balance Li Lu, she could not do it.
Although Li Lu has a high status in the army and has a lot of military power, what if he is not allocated food and grass? How many soldiers can he command without food and grass?
"Prime Minister, I don't know about this matter. What do you think?"
"Horse riding~~!"
Zhai Ku cursed secretly, the court was like a powder keg, whoever lit him would die, and the other side would not let him go.
Although many ministers are not afraid, it is because they have backing, and they have almost no political capital except two stones in weight.
For some reason, Zhai Ku suddenly thought of Yang Qian, and silently asked himself, if Lord Wu An were here, how would he deal with the complicated court game?
He thought for a long time, and suddenly a light flashed in his mind.
Zhai Ku's breathing gradually became louder, beads of sweat appeared on his face, and he gasped for air.
"Your Majesty, I don't have any ideas. I just feel unwell. I have been eating less and less and sleeping more and more recently. I feel very weak most of the time. In fact, I came here with the intention of becoming a scholar and returning to my hometown."
In an instant, everyone was surprised, but only surprised.
The eyes that used to be full of disdain turned into appreciation, and some of them had pity in their eyes.
But more people had sarcastic expressions on their faces. It would be best if the fat guy left. He was a carrot and a pit. Only when he left could he have a chance to support his own people.
"Ah, Prime Minister, would you like to ask a doctor to diagnose and treat you?"
Zhai Ku waved his hands and said weakly, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your kindness. No need. This is diabetes and requires long-term medication. I hope the Queen Mother will take pity on me. In fact, I am not as powerful as the previous prime ministers, but in terms of domestic affairs, I am pretty good." good."
"I hope the Queen Mother will accept it because of her hard work."
The heroic husband's eyes gradually narrowed. To be honest, she didn't even know if Fatty Zhai was acting? It's about acting. With this motive, the court is treacherous and it's not easy to fish.
How about acting? In the past, it wasn't just a matter of one or two for Fatty Zhai to suffer from diabetes. I guess Shang Guo couldn't find anyone with a similar body shape to him.
He is so fat that every time he walks, he feels like he will roll down. Some ministers also dislike him.
The identity is one, and the most important thing is that standing next to him, the heat is very high, forget it in winter, what about summer? As soon as he stood next to her, it was as if the stove was on, and he felt uncomfortable.
Mrs. Yinglie shook her head and sighed, "Since Prime Minister Zhai has passed away due to illness, I can't force you. I'll give you a fief in your hometown, and you can enjoy your old age in peace."
Zhai Ku groaned and bent down, cupping his hands in salute.
"Thank you, Queen Mother!"
At this time, he was sweating profusely. After get off work, he immediately got on the carriage and returned home, rummaging through boxes and cabinets to sort them out.
When his wife saw it, she said hello with a face full of greetings, and asked curiously, "What's wrong with you today? Why are you sweating so much? Are you suffering from diabetes mellitus? Do you want me to make some medicine for you?"
Zhai Ku sorted out his money and other important items and said without looking back, "Why do you have four questions in one sentence? You want to embarrass me."
"Hurry up and make arrangements. We will take care of the money, and let the servants take care of the rest. Let's go back to our hometown today."
Madam is confused. Fatty 996 doesn’t want to pull up? This is a blessing. If the prime minister of a country doesn't do it, he won't do it?
The lady kept the golden cake on the bed, sat on it, and said angrily, "No, you have to be clear, what's going on if you leave without knowing anything?"
Zhai Ku dragged his fat belly to the outside of the house. After looking around, he closed the door tightly and said with serious eyes.
"In the court, because of the position of the king, Gongzi Guan and Gongzi Rei are already on the same level. Both sides are backed by hard people. I am a puppet who has no background and has worked hard. What's the use? Fortunately, I can run fast, otherwise Maybe in a few days, I will die!"
The lady was shocked and hesitated, "It shouldn't be that serious!"
"It's serious. It's more serious than you think. As long as we leave, it will be safe."
The lady was also very distraught and began to call people to get all the luggage and other things. However, there were too many things and she had to find a carriage temporarily, so she had to wait for a day or two before leaving.
A large number of coachmen pulled the carriages to Zhai Ku's mansion and began to pack some things into the carriage. When no one was paying attention, a young coachman packed the things very hard and began to wait.
The luggage and wealth of Mrs. Qing's family are frightening to death. It is estimated that there will be no problem in loading two, three, or dozens of cars.
When the things are almost loaded, they can leave, but the carriage cannot leave. Just in case, someone needs to stay on duty.
While giggling, the young coachman was chosen by everyone to stay, which was quite a hardship. The good thing was that if he was lucky, he might still have a leftover meal at night. But if he was unlucky, he would have to starve first.
The color gradually darkened and the door opened. He had no choice but to have some humanity in the Zhai Mansion and gave him some food and drink. Although it was leftovers, the dishes were luxurious and tastier than those in some restaurants.
The servant sat next to him and waited for him to return the dishes.
The young coachman was getting close to each other while eating, and he didn't know if he had a high emotional intelligence. After a while, the two of them were chatting together.
"Tsk tsk tsk, the girls in that brothel in the east of the city are really strong."
"Hahaha, you are just like me. I also like strong ones. No matter how hard you hit them, you will be fine."
"By the way, isn't this the Prime Minister's residence? Why is it so big today?"
The servant was stunned for a moment and then asked, "What are you asking about?"
The young coachman waved his hand and said with a smile, "Hey, isn't this the Prime Minister? Everyone knows that the Prime Minister is the one who does the facts, so they are a little curious."
The servant let out a long sigh. For people like them who signed a death contract, the mansion is their home. If the master of the house is good, their life will be good. If the master of the house dies, their life will be sad.
Some officials expressed their dissatisfaction when they saw him. Servants enjoyed this kind of life the most, but now they were naturally dissatisfied when they returned to a rural place.
Seeing that someone asked, it was not a confidential matter anyway, he said directly.
"Alas, the head of the family is suffering from diabetes, and his body cannot bear it, so he has no choice but to send his wife to the hospital. After the luggage is packed, the whole family will go to the Prime Minister's hometown, a remote place."
The young coachman showed a stunned expression and looked at the servant with great admiration.
"You are so amazing. You became a servant in the Prime Minister's house at such a young age. You are so amazing, my brother!"
The servant laughed and said, "What do you know? You coachmen make your own money and spend it yourself. We are different. We signed a death deed. When the prime minister returns to his hometown, we have to follow him back to his hometown."
The young coachman, after complimenting him for a while, suddenly changed his expression and started to gnash his teeth.
The servant was startled and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's okay. I seem to have a bad stomach today. I, I want to go out for a while. Can you help me look after my luggage for a while? I'll be right back!"
The servant was already disappointed, and his status plummeted in the future. Unexpectedly, he met a close friend this time and immediately opened the door for him.
The young coachman covered his buttocks and ran toward a nearby place where he could go out in a panic. When he arrived at the location, he looked around and immediately got into a shop.
Not long after, he got out again and hurried to the door of the mansion. He looked at a dozen carriages, asked for a lantern and tightened his coat.
It was still quite cool in the early spring evening. The young man tightened his clothes and looked no different from ordinary Shang Guoqian's clothes. In fact, they were made of cashmere and had very good warmth retention properties.
Three days later, in the inner hall of Zhai Mansion, Zhai Ku looked at the official documents and the land deed in his hand, his face was so ugly that even the wife who liked to ask questions didn't dare to speak. However, after a long time, she couldn't help but ask Zhai Ku.
Zhai Ku's face was full of unwillingness and anger, but in the end it turned into a sigh.
"This is the land deed given to me by the Queen Mother to reward me for my contribution to Shangguo. You can see the rest by yourself, hum."
In fact, given Zhai Ku's status, the reward was of an ordinary level, but this time he was given an amount of land that was beyond his expectation and was very large.
But when Zhai Ku picked it up and looked at it, his nose was crooked with anger. It was enough to deceive an outsider.
When I return to the fiefdom in my hometown, I have a clean family, but what will I get? Some of the land is so barren that even no weeds grow. The locals know it, so do they think they are fools?
The wife took the official document and looked at it, and immediately quit the job. "Master, something is wrong. Why did you give so much land? But what makes you unhappy?"
"The Queen Mother would rather pretend to be a ghost to make herself happy, and not even give her any warmth. If she works for her in the future, she will be a son of a bitch."
"What are those places? They are all swamps and mountains. There is no place for farming at all. This land deed is worth less than papyrus. It is useless to have it."
