In a surprised expression, Luo Chongxun announced the severance of the court.

Zhao Zhen also bowed to Liu E and went back to Funing Palace. Liu E did not move and said to Luo Chongxun: "Summon Xue Kui to meet him."

Xue Kui and Liang Feng went to Fengqiu to take office, and he was sent as an envoy to the Liao Dynasty to celebrate the birthday of Empress Xiao, the current emperor Yelu Longxu. He has just returned and is still on vacation.

While Xue Kui was still here, Liu E suddenly gave birth to another imperial edict and asked Lu Zongdao to come back to talk.

Before Lu Zongdao arrived at the Political Affairs Hall, a yellow gate came to stop him and told him to turn back. When the old man heard this, he suddenly felt excited. The ministers who had not yet left behind had some meaningful gazes, and he ignored them.

"I have met the Queen Mother, but I wonder if the Queen Mother summoned me back. What should I tell you?"

"Guanzhi, I asked you to come back because there was something in the Ai family. I wanted to listen to your opinions first. The Ai family was angry just now. Just Ding Yizhi and Lu Tanfu, and the center was empty all of a sudden. You are so serious that you think who should do this position as prime minister?" Liu E said gently to the point.

"Empress Dowager, I am the deputy prime minister, how dare I overthrow the recommendation of others? Please make a decision." Lu Zongdao lowered his head and replied. He was afraid that he would look up and let Liu E see his face flushed through the curtain.

"Haha, after all, I am kind. The Ai family's intentions must be to work hard on you, but I don't know what you think?"

"This, I haven't considered this matter yet." Lu Zongdao suddenly stuttered a little.

Seeing that he was normal in his reaction, Liu E was a little satisfied. He then said, "The 22nd day is the ceremonial ceremony, and this matter will not be decided. At that time, the people who read the book will be empty. Isn't it a joke to the state?"

Lu Zongdao felt a stern heart, thinking to himself how he forgot about this matter? No wonder this good thing hit him on the head. It turned out that the old lady was waiting here.

However, the fact that the State Council was in charge of the work was too tempting. Lu Zongdao was excited and had a fierce struggle in his mind. He didn't know how to make a choice. After thinking for a long time, he had to stammer and answered: "Reply to the Queen Mother's words, this matter is not small. I dare not speak a lie, but there is Taichang, Taipu and the Ministry of Personnel, and there is no mistake."

Saying it means not saying it.

"Oh, Guanzhi, in an instant, we all got old! Remember you were a Jinshi in the second year of Xianping? Twenty-five years have passed since you entered the officialdom." Liu E said.

Lu Zongdao didn't quite understand what Liu E suddenly made a family conversation at this time, but if the leader could tell her resume, it would mean that she had a very good position in the leader's heart. He was moved and replied: "The Queen Mother remembers it sincerely. I was a Jinshi in the second year of Xianping. I was worried about it!"

"To be honest, you are two years older than the Ai family. Time flies, and you look down on many things in a blink of an eye. You have become very tired recently and think you can't last long. But seeing that you are so energetic, you seem to be a few years younger than the Ai family. Haha!"

"Long live the Queen Mother for a long time, how can I compare to the Queen Mother? All the people in the world pray for the Queen Mother's blessings and longevity!" Lu Zongdao blurted out like a conditioned reflex.

"Haha, long live the future? Why dare to hope? Don't you all look forward to the Ai family--!" Liu E said halfway, and ended abruptly, looking at Lu Zong meaningfully.

Lu Zongdao knew that in the previous court, he was one of the leaders. How should he speak at this time? Prime Minister, it is no longer a matter of reaching out, but just nodding himself!

In the warm side hall, with the slight sweat beads, Lu Zongdao heard his heartbeat, and countless thoughts passed by in his mind, and finally he suddenly felt cruel and bowed and replied: "The Empress Dowager is so serious. No matter what the ministers think, they are actually hoping that the Song Dynasty will be forever. The Queen Mother is wise and wise, and the Queen Mother is at the helm. My Song Dynasty will surely prosper every year!"

As soon as he said that, Lu Zongdao let out a heavy breath, feeling mixed feelings, not sure whether it was shame or excitement.

Behind the curtain, Liu E was relieved. After all, she was not wrong. This old man was still obsessed with greed. He originally wanted to promote Qian Weiyan at a sudden attack, but this relative was indeed not the top leader. He had no choice but to give up his love and give up Lu Guanzhi in front of him. But no matter what, since he expressed his determination to support him, he proved his vision.

Liu E smiled and nodded: "With Lu Qing's words, the Ai family will be content. You were originally sentenced to Liu Neiquan, so you thought about it for the Ai family. Who should do the commander in front of the palace?"

"Yes, I will definitely carefully inspect and recommend it."

"Okay, then you can go and do it."

After leaving Lu Zongdao, Luo Chongxun reported that Xue Kui had been waiting outside the hall for a long time. Liu E's name was Xuan.

"Su Yi, you have worked hard from the Northern Dynasties, but the Ai family has never been asked about what the situation in the Northern Dynasties has been recently?"

When Xue Kui went to the palace to see the court, Liu E asked about the Northern Liao Dynasty.

"I am actually deeply touched by the Northern Envoy. Since Yelu Longxu, the Northern Envoy, since the Northern Dynasties took power, he has not been in the world to fight in all directions. However, his territory has expanded and become much stronger. In addition, in recent years, the Northern Dynasties have been light in taxes and levies, and the punishments have been forgiven, and the people are very stable. Yelu Longxu is good at riding and shooting, knowing music, and good at poetry and prose, and painting can be done. He admires our Chinese culture, pays tribute and selects scholars every year, without distinction between the north and the south. Therefore, the Han people gradually become naturalized, and their homesickness is weak!"

Liu E said with a worried look on her face: "This is the strong enemy of our dynasty!"

"However, Yelu Longxu's career is high this year, quite luxurious, and he likes to talk about Buddhism and Taoism. In addition, the palace is inconsistent with the emperor's relative Xiao is also quite dirty. On the day of the commemoration of the ministers, he only asked about the affairs of the Buddha and did not talk about anything else. All the ministers in front of the palace were pleased. It is not enough to cause trouble."

"Then, how are the vice minister of the Southern Palace Yelu Hong, who was sent to envoy this time? Do you understand?"

"Yelu Hong is his nephew, and I also see him. He is extremely arrogant and has a good wine and a generous gift!"

"The Ai family has appointed Lu Yijian as the envoy to welcome the North today, and is responsible for the Northern Dynasties' mission to send envoys to receive them. You should help Lu Tanfu take care of the whole thing more at that time." Liu E said lightly.

Xue Kui showed surprise at this time. He didn't know what the result was in the court meeting just now. At this time, he suddenly heard Liu E announce that Lu Yijian had been dismissed from his appearance.

"Okay, that's how the Northern Dynasties happened. You must have known everything you encountered when the official visits to the tombs, right? What do you think?"

"I'm sorry, I've been careless and made a little careless. How can I move my body with a thousand gold coins at will? Fortunately, there is no major problem, otherwise where will I be in the world?" Xue Kui replied.

Liu E laughed and said, "Su Yi is straightforward. Although there are some discussions, she is still a way to be a counselor. If you were there at that time, it might be different."

Actually, there is no difference? It’s just a matter of a few people fighting, but Xue Kuiquan knew that Kaifeng had been in more than a year, and the officials were forced to do so and praised the people, so he gained a high reputation. He was not afraid of trouble, and not many people could communicate with each other in the court, but he had a very close relationship with some lower-class officials.

After hearing Liu E's praise, Xue Kui hurriedly said a few humble words.

Liu E was very satisfied with his report today, and smiled and asked him to go down the palace. She turned around and said to Luo Chongxun: "Go and write an imperial edict, Xue Kui will be transferred to the left counselor and the chief censor."
