Three hundred and thirty-six, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming

"The emperor is wise..." the ministers bowed.

The emperor thought about it again: "But Xingzhou alone cannot help but be unable to deal with it, so the Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple cannot be free. I remember that at first it was Tang Zhou who always supported the King of Pingnan, so he added Tang Zhou as the Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple to assist in the matter."

Tang Zhou burst into laughter and thanked him repeatedly.

Li Xingzhou looked at the flexible fat man on the right back in amazement. He did nothing and just became a Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple. He wouldn't have made up his mind from the beginning...

To put it bluntly, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In ancient times, diplomacy was not as important as the modern information age.

But accordingly, the Honglu Temple has more decision-making power and will not accept foreign orders. The same is true for diplomacy. In the era of backward transportation technology and information technology, it is impossible to go to other countries to negotiate. I called thousands of miles away and asked the emperor how to reply.

After the court came, officials from all over the country surrounded him and congratulated him. He kept saying flatteringly. Only the prince's face was dark and he left without saying hello.

The King of Pingnan, the champion general, the commander of the new army, and the military weapon supervisor, the junior supervisor of the military weapon supervisor was already very powerful. Now that the emperor has become the Minister of the Honglu Temple, he naturally has a high rise and is very popular.

Li Xingzhou smiled casually and couldn't be happy. He bowed to everyone and left because he was unsure of his mind how to respond to Liu Xu. The envoys of the Jin Kingdom and his group, Wanyan Yingge seemed tough and had a noble status, but was actually easy to deal with.

On the contrary, Liu Xu, who is careful everywhere, is even more difficult to deal with because, based on his experience, such a person is smart.

When Duke De left the hall, he smiled: "At a young age, there are not many people who can achieve this kind of success in ancient times and in the past, and it is also a master of a lifetime. But remember to be cautious of being arrogant and impatient and restrain your frivolous temper."

Li Xingzhou smiled and said, "I know, do you want to go to the royal palace for tea in the afternoon?"

"I am busy with government affairs in Japan now, but if you sincerely ask me, then I will beg you... "

Lee Sing-cheol: “…….”

&nb didn't ask for...

.........

In the afternoon, with the help of Gillian Ban, Li Xingzhou wrote his strategy against the Jin and Liao countries, which was the memorial of the imperial court, and asked Ji Chunsheng to help deliver it to the Secretariat.

Seeing that Ah Jiao was talking big and planning the world situation, her eyes were full of bright little stars, and she was like a little fanatic. However, Li Xingzhou was thinking in her heart that if Ah Jiao was not there, his literary talent would be written into a memorial, and he would be afraid that he would laugh at the officials of the Secretariat and the emperor's big teeth.

.........

The next day, after the morning court, officials from the Ministry of Personnel respectfully sent him the signature and official uniforms of the Minister of the Honglu Temple.

Then he and Tang Zhouwei went to the office and yamen of Honglu Temple under the Ministry of Rites to inspect. Honglu Temple had twelve permanent officials who had nothing to do and were bored in the government office to make fun of birds.

Seeing Li Xingzhou coming, he was shocked and hurriedly sorted out his clothes and stood up to greet him. He did not punish him, but just warned him, and then looked at the list of officials.

It turned out that one of these people was actually named Bao Zheng!

It's a rename... Li Xingzhou thought so in his heart, but he didn't care too much. He just ordered everyone to clean up the rules and regulations, and soon something would be done.

......

In the afternoon, Zhao Si got beef from his relative's house and happened to bring some for him. You should know that eating beef is not easy in this era, it depends on your face.

He asked someone to invite Degong to the palace. Gillian and Yue'er were busy making cloaks in the yard and Shiyu went to Zhenbao Pavilion. As the Mid-Autumn Festival approached, the business was booming. Qiu'er ran to the backyard to find craftsmen such as Zhao Si to help test her drawings.

He is the only one left in the family, Qi Fang, who lives in the royal palace temporarily.

Li Xingzhou chatted with Degong and had tea, and during this time he called Qi Fang and told Degong about the two brothers Qi Fang and Qi Dong when the rebellion in the south were suppressed.

After hearing this, Degong praised her for being a hero among girls, and sighed that if she was not a daughter, she would have done something great.

As for why Qifang lives in the royal palace, Li Xingzhou dared not talk to Degong about the truth, but only said that he would receive friends.

......

Because at noon today, he asked Fang in the main hall why he didn't call her little husband to live in the palace, anyway, there are many guest rooms in the palace.

As a result, Qi Fang was drinking tea and said without caring: "Give him a few taels of silver, he will find a place to eat and sleep, so he doesn't have to worry about it."

Li Xingzhou was speechless: "You are raising your father as a sheep..."

Qi Fang smiled: "The prince thinks it is, don't care."

"Hahaha, it's really ruthless, but if it's not ruthless, it wouldn't be the one I know Qijia Qifang..." He laughed.

"Haha, does the prince think of me like this?" Qi Fang also smiled: "I didn't want to treat him ruthlessly, but my father is old and may die at any time. If I don't recruit a son-in-law, the family property of several generations of the family will fall into the hands of the elder brother and the younger son. It just so happened that he wanted money, and I wanted a husband who could come to the door, and each of them would get what he needed."

"Don't you respect your two brothers very much?" Li Xingzhou asked.

"Whether respect or not has nothing to do with the rise and fall of the family. The eldest of my nephew is only six years old. If you give your foundation to a six-year-old child in the future, what does the prince think?" Qi Fang asked with a smile.

Li Xingzhou was speechless. This was an unsolvable problem. No matter how good the relationship between her two brothers was, she had to face this realistic problem.

Maybe someone will ask if he can't help his nephew? This naive idea is just to dramatize life. Drama always develops in a beautiful direction, downplaying contradictions and ugliness of human nature, and gives people comfort.

But reality is no more cruel than poetry. Reality is cruel, human nature is ugly, and contradictions are more cruel and unsolvable. The better you think, the more you lose.

This is Qi Fang, a cold woman who concentrates her power and controls her desires.

Li Xingzhou actually admires such people very much. Just as he admires Wu Zetian, as a naturally disadvantaged woman, she is not bound by fate and strives to break free from the shackles. This inner indomitable charm is amazing.

"Anyway, from now on, you are a member of the Pingnan Prince's Mansion. As long as you do the affairs of the Prince's Mansion well, if you have any difficulties, just look for me directly. The Prince's Mansion has the obligation to shelter you from the wind and rain." Li Xingzhou said that being a daughter is her biggest difficulty, but he can't do anything about this difficulty.

Qi Fang smiled: "Is this the prince considered protecting his shortcomings?"

"It's not about protecting your shortcomings, you are not about your shortcomings, or even the strengths of the royal palace. I'm very relieved to you by the Su and Lu generations." He said sincerely.

Qi Fang paused, but in the end he didn't answer.

.........

In the past few days, Kaiyuan Mansion has begun to become busy, maintaining order and cleaning the streets. Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and there are joy everywhere, with people coming and going on the streets. Chestnuts, walnuts and other snacks from the south have suddenly become the most popular products.

Gillian and Yue'er also arranged for purchasing in the royal palace. In addition to sending money, all the servants also had to send moon cakes and fruits. These were all indispensable.

In addition, Gillian's parents also have to come to the capital and have to entertain themselves, so they cannot be neglected.

However, what made Gillian most happy was that Chen Wenxi invited him to write a poem meeting. People who could sit high praises at the poem meeting were not ordinary people, and few young people could climb the high seat.

But this year, when discussing etiquette in the palace, the famous scholars and Neo-Confucian scholars all entered the palace, they could only find young people with extremely high levels. Since Chen Wenxi came to him, he recognized his talent and knowledge. As a talented woman, Gillian was of course happy.

Li Xingzhou wanted to refuse, but he could copy poems, and commenting on poems was simply fatal. It was obvious that Ah Gillian was so happy that he told him early that he would take her with him, so he knew that he couldn't refuse. Then he thought again, at worst, he would ask Ah Gillian to help him comment! So he didn't refuse.
