Sixty-second dragon scales (two)

No matter when it was, Linglong felt a headache when he saw the memorials of the ministers.

These people seemed to be unable to speak well. They were obviously just a trivial matter, and they had to spend thousands of words to write it out. The whole article was praising the emperor and showing their loyalty. They would not talk about things until the end. Some of them had long-term positions. They went to Beijing to report their duties every three years. When they did not report their duties, they would write a memorial to the emperor every year to describe the situation over the past year. That would be even more nonsense. Even Linglong looked at it with ten lines at a glance and became irritated.

She was impatient to take care of these things, and she became more and more annoyed as she watched them. Hu Xiuhe was guarding the side and felt that the little empress had a bad temper. Just as he was thinking about how to coax her, the little empress suddenly threw the note in her hand far away - just like an angry child among the people, she would throw the things at hand, and throw the one she caught.

However, Linglong did not take her anger on Hu Xiuhe. From the death of Emperor Xiaozong to today, the memorials have accumulated more day by day. Now there are already hills higher. How long does it take for her to finish it! She became the emperor for the sake of enjoyment, not for the sake of hard work! It would be better to let King Jiaodong and others be the ones!

But this is not something that others can read, she can only read it. Can you finish reading it when it’s dark? These ministers are free to eat every day. How can they write thousands or even tens of thousands of words?

Linglong picked up a few books and read them. I really couldn't stand it. The Southwest Administration General Yuan Yong wrote more than 10,000 words this year, but there was nothing important. The whole article only expressed one idea: Although I took office in the southwest, I was devoted to Your Majesty. I miss Your Majesty. It's like not seeing you for a day. I can't wait to see Your Majesty! Under Your Majesty's wise leadership, the people in the southwest live and work in peace and contentment are all your majesty!

Nearly 20,000 words were all analyzing his loyalty and longing for the emperor. Linglong looked at him and felt that his fist was hard.

She screamed in pain, and her whole body rushed into the clerk, her petite figure looked particularly miserable.

Hu Xiuhe couldn't help laughing, but the little empress was so miserable. If he laughed, it would be a bad idea. So he took a step forward: "Your Majesty, do you want to use some fruits? It's summer, and eating some fruits can relieve boredom."

Linglong nodded: "You want it."

Soon the fruit plate was served, including apples, watermelons, strawberries, lychees, etc., cut into sizes that can be directly in the mouth. This is the best thing in the palace. You can eat whatever you want. Even if it is an off-season fruit, as long as the emperor wants, the people below can find ways to get it.

However, Hu Xiuhe did not dare to eat these fruits and fruits. He served Emperor Xiaozong since he was a child. People walking in front of the emperor must pay special attention to their manners. The fruits and fruits are raw and cold, which can easily damage their stomachs and cannot be eaten. Foods with slightly heavier tastes cannot be eaten. If you are like sweet potatoes and radishes, you will not touch them. If you are cherry, garlic, onion and ginger are prone to bad breath, you cannot use them. If you eat too much, you will not be able to drink too much water, you will not be able to get respectful. For example, Hu Xiuhe has never eaten a full meal for many years. He served in front of the emperor. It seems to be glorious, but it is actually very painful.

Therefore, when Linglong gave the rest to Hu Xiuhe, he looked embarrassed. In order for His Majesty to eat, the fruits and melons were frozen in the spring water, and it was cold, but he had not eaten them for many years. His stomach was fragile, and he would have a stomachache after eating them raw and cold. What should I do if I lose my manners in front of the emperor and get bored of His Majesty?

Could it be that Your Majesty still doesn’t trust him and wants to transfer himself away?

Hu Xiuhe was thinking a lot, while Linglong didn't think so much at all. She just didn't want to eat and give it to the people below.

Your Majesty gave me, but I dared not resign. Hu Xiuhe had been working on psychological construction for a long time, and finally ate all the remaining fruits and fruits. Sure enough, his stomach started to stir up. Linglong was continuing to read the memorials when he suddenly heard a few intestinal roars. He immediately raised his head and knelt down with a plop: "Your Majesty forgive me! A servant lost his etiquette--"

Linglong blinked. She had never had any experience of constipation or diarrhea, so she couldn't understand it. However, she had never eaten pork and had seen pigs running. Hu Xiuhe's feminine and handsome face was covered with cold sweat. She waved her hand: "You go down first, come and serve you later."

"yes."

Even though there were many noises in his belly, Hu Xiuhe still endured it and respectfully left the imperial study room.

As soon as he left, Linglong laughed out loud. You really want to say that this person is quite fun.

Half an hour later, Hu Xiuhe came back and changed into a green eunuch uniform. She looked fine without any serious illness on her face. She was still incense again, and she returned to the Hu Dalian who collapsed in front of Mount Tai without changing her color.

Finally, Linglong read the memorials all day long. Hu Xiuhe didn't understand government affairs. He only knew that His Majesty divided the memorials into three parts and ordered him to carry them to the Golden Palace tomorrow. His Majesty actually finished reading the memorials like a hill in just one day! Hu Xiuhe was secretly shocked. Even when Emperor Xiaozong was still there, he couldn't see it so quickly!

Linglong got up early the next day. She squinted her eyes lazily and let the palace servants wash and change her clothes. She was not sleepy. Although she seemed crazy about food and sleep, she seemed to be unable to quit, but she was not so obsessed with it. Sometimes she wondered, is there anything else in this world that she could keep chasing?

Yesterday, the little empress killed the King of Wu with her eleven years old. Today, all officials dare not underestimate her. The scene of the noisy and even fighting was gone as they were yesterday. They were like quails and honest. The three vassal kings stood in front, looking respectful, but they didn't know what they were thinking. What could they say if the little empress didn't let them return to their fiefdom? They just thought that Emperor Xiaozong had good methods to pave the way for the little empress before his death, and exchanged his own death for the four vassal kings to enter the capital. Because the little empress was young and ignorant, he despised her and was light and simple. Now he became a turtle in the jar. If the little empress didn't speak, who would dare to leave?

Unless you are shameless!

However, the most shameless one of these four vassal kings had been stabbed to death by the little empress with a sword. The remaining three were all hypocritical, and they were the kind of people who were bitch and wanted to be archways. They all wanted to be emperors and usurp the throne, but they had to be justified and the little empress abdicated. They had to stage a scene where the officials kneeled down and asked for it before accepting it.

It has always been a bad thing for people who are too shameless to face Linglong.

Linglong is not as serious and rigid as the emperors of all dynasties. She is small and sleeps lazily inside, and feels comfortable. Emperor Xiaozong is a person who is strict with himself. Except for being with his wife and daughter, all his chairs and beds are hard, and even the pillows are jade pillows, so as to remind himself not to indulge in pleasure. The dragon chaise is naturally the same. But Linglong can't get used to sitting, and she feels that her butt is hurt. Hu Xiuhe puts a soft cushion on the dragon chaise, so it feels much more comfortable to sit on it.

The palace people brought the note over, and Linglong opened a book casually. The officials looked at each other, wondering what the little empress was selling in this gourd.

I heard the little empress say, "My dear friends, I read a memorable me for a day yesterday. I feel a headache. Where is Xu Ju, the Minister of Guanglu Temple?"

An official wearing a Tibetan blue court uniform came out after hearing the sound: "I am here."

"Your memo... I counted it and wrote a total of 5,307 words." Linglong's face was calm, "The 5,300 words were nonsense. The only seven words that talked about the serious matter were 'I would like to offer Bing Guanglu Temple'."

What do these more than 5,000 words mean? Xu Jiu, from praise in winter to spring, from praise in spring to summer, from the country to people's livelihood, from the government to the back house, has praised 5,000 words anyway. The last central idea: Your Majesty! Summer is too hot! Guanglu Temple faces north and south again! In previous years, there was too little ice to be distributed to Guanglu Temple! Can you give more this year?

It’s just such a big deal, I wrote 5,307 words. Linglong endured the irritability and saw the last seven words, and the last seven words were talking about the serious matter!

Xu Ju: Cough...

Now I write this kind of memorials. I first praise His Majesty and then show my loyalty. I may not necessarily have any practical things to talk about in the end. Everyone writes this way, so he is no exception... But it is really shameful to be taken out as a typical example!

In addition to Xu Ju, Linglong arrested more than a dozen other memorable memorials and sent them to the scene. Although these adults looked serious and upright, there were actually too many flatteries in the memorable and could blow them out! Some of these memorials were accumulated when Xiaozong was seriously ill, and some were only after Linglong ascended the throne. Anyway, no matter whether it was a problem or not, these ministers liked to write memorials. When they wrote, they were smelly and long, so Linglong put forward new requirements.

"I don't like to read these nonsense. I will remember the future memorials. I will have my own intentions, choose the style, write the titles, and do not copy them or copy them. If it is a major event, I can urgently enter the palace to meet you without passing memorials. It is best to open my mind to the point. If there is something to say, don't write them if you have nothing to do! If anyone has one more word, I will fine him one month's salary. If there is two more words, I will fine him two months. If there is three more words, I will fine him four months, and so on!"

The ministers were in an uproar, and an old scholar with white hair and beard came out to argue: "Your Majesty, I think this is absolutely not allowed--"

"What's wrong?" Linglong glared at him, "You don't need to say how wise and powerful I am. You are so loyal and patriotic, you can't tell with your mouth. Now that I have just made such a small request, you are so dissatisfied. How dare I value you in the future? Or do you say that my words don't work, and you want to listen to others?"

This was said seriously, and the old scholar hurriedly knelt down and apologized: "I dare not--"

"I dare not be the best." Linglong gave him a blank look, not hiding her boredom at all. She has always hated these old and old-fashioned guys, just like the stones in the pit, smelly and hard, and every time it aroused her desire to beat people. "From tomorrow, if there is someone's memorization of more than a hundred words, I will tell him personally that the fine of the salary is not a joke! If you look down on that salary, you deliberately oppose me... Haha, the King of Wu yesterday will be waiting for tomorrow."

She is different from her father, Emperor Xiaozong. Emperor Xiaozong is gentle, considerate and generous. He is like this to his wife and daughter, the people, and the ministers. He even went out of the palace to visit the sick ministers himself. He listened to people with great patience and thoughtful considerations in all aspects.

But Linglong is not Emperor Xiaozong.

She is cold and iron-blooded. She does not allow anyone to say anything after she makes a decision, and she doesn't like someone to go against her intentions.

She is orthodox, the daughter of Emperor Xiaozong. Even if she is a woman, most people don’t like her, and no one dares to criticize the little empress just after Emperor Xiaozong passed away. In that case, even if it is unfaithful and unrighteous, it will make the people’s spits drowned in the long river of history!

So, the matter of limiting the number of words in this memorial was settled, and most of the ministers followed it. There were a few thorns who were under the vassal kings' account and intended to provoke them, so Linglong pointed out the next day.

She said yesterday that it should not exceed one hundred words. However, today the three people who were pointed out from the queue were the deputy envoy of the Tongzheng Envoy Department, with a goatee. He wrote three thousand words, and the remaining two were the attendant of the Inspectorate and the Imperial College. They were both people with no real power but high reputation. The three of them wrote more than 10,000 words together!

Linglong did not beat, scold, or use a knife, but just ordered Hu Xiuhe next to him: "Go and hand over the three beloved ministers' memorials' memorials into the ancestral temple. I let the temple prayers be burned in person in front of my emperors of all dynasties, so that the emperors of all dynasties can see them. It has been passed on to my generation. They are all talented and talented ministers."

Hu Xiuhe's face did not get more color: "Yes."

He held the three notes in his hands and turned around and left, but the three of them were anxious! This ancestral temple was the place where the throne of emperors and thrones were worshipped in all dynasties, and only the emperor was qualified to enter. As subjects, the chalice was sent to the ancestral temple to burn for emperors of all dynasties... This was simply a matter of their life!

The deputy envoy of the Tongzheng Department was anxious: "Your Majesty! You must never be able to use it!"

"What can I do?" Linglong was so surprised. "If you don't listen to what I said, then go and ask my father, emperor, grandfather, and elders of all generations. I think you are willing to listen to what they say. If this memorial is well written and makes them happy, I will send you to accompany you. It happens to fulfill your loyalty. Wouldn't it be beautiful?"

Why are the others honest and obedient? But these three people are not? One is to serve the vassal king, and the other is to step on her and stand up!

I recognized her as the emperor because of Emperor Xiaozong's will, but it was unhappy for these ministers to surrender to the empress. This way, it can show her extraordinaryness when she fights Linglong. Simply put, it is to try to make her reputation by stepping on the empress.

Think, get, beauties.

If you want fame, go to the ancestral temple to ask the emperors of all generations for you!

The three of them knelt down and confessed their guilt and begged for mercy. Unfortunately, Linglong was never a kind person, and what she wanted was wholehearted obedience!

Soon, Hu Xiuhe came back and Linglong asked, "Is there any miracle?"

Hu Xiuhe shook his head respectfully: "Your Majesty, there has never been any."

"It seems that your memorials are not well written, otherwise, those who are gentle and tolerant as my father would not give up their will? It is a sin to justify the eyes of emperors of all generations."

"Your Majesty." The King of Shu came out to pay tribute. "The theory of ghosts and gods is illusory. These three masters are also dedicated to your good intentions. Please ask Your Majesty—"

"The King of Shu means that after the death of emperors of all dynasties, they will not be in the world, so future generations do not need to be awe?"

The King of Shu was stunned by this sophistry. Did he mean the same thing as the little empress? Just as Linglong was about to explain, she laughed: "It is strange that the emperor had just passed away, and the four emperor uncles rushed over in a hurry, and they couldn't even wait for the imperial edict."

The words were extremely sarcastic. As soon as Emperor Xiaozong died, the four vassal kings heard that the throne was passed to Linglong, and immediately rushed to the capital in the name of national mourning. As vassal kings, they were not allowed to summon or leave their fiefdoms. These rules seemed to be eaten by them!

She insisted that the emperor had spirit. If your memorial was burned and the emperors did not respond, it means that you were not well written! If you wrote it poorly, you would dare not listen to me and provoke me. You would be a traitor!

It is a great domineering and unreasonable statement. It is obvious that it is necessary to deal with these three people who have come forward. Whoever dares to say love will be unlucky with her. She is the emperor and she can say whatever she likes!

The King of Shu could only abandon this chess piece and return to the list.

This is what acquiesce to concessions.

Linglong showed a bright smile at the three ministers kneeling on the ground. This was probably the happiest time she had laughed in court for two days. Emperor Xiaozong and Empress Dowager Ren'an were both very handsome and outstanding. However, this extremely beautiful smile did not allow the three people kneeling on the ground to relax. Instead, their scalp became numb and their foreheads were covered with cold sweat. They felt as if they were targeted by some dangerous beast and had nowhere to escape.

"I said yesterday that if you have more than one word, you will be fined multiples. The three beloved ministers are really brave. In order to challenge my authority, no one has less than three thousand words. I have calculated that you have finished the salary before returning home in this life. What should I do?"

She stretched out a finger and scratched her pink cheeks, looking like her little daughter was worried. However, to this day, no one will regard her as a tiger cub that can tease and deceive - no matter how young a tiger is, it is still a beast.

Emperor Xiaozong's daughter is more like an emperor than Emperor Xiaozong.

She was so upset with a sweet voice, and the three people kneeling on the ground were trembling. Not to mention the reputation of the past, life and death were still in the hands of the little empress! And the remaining people who didn't say a word also had their own thoughts.

Little Empress, she is too arrogant.

She doesn't tell you any of the constraints, balances, or emperor's minds. She just does whatever she wants and doesn't play according to the rules. But no matter how you defend, she is the emperor, she is orthodox, and she just has a way to deal with you, unless you can give up your face and say I don't want it. I just don't accept it. I'm going to change to usurp the throne. Before you succeed, everyone in the world can drown your head!

It is either orthodox or even up to the throne. I don’t know how many people with evil intentions will want to imitate this scene of wearing a yellow robe. Even the King of Wu is shameless and wants to supervise the title of the king in front of the little empress, and he doesn’t even want to call him a call. What’s the result? He stabbed a sword into his stomach, bleeding and pain!

Who dares to say anything?

If a king wants his minister to die, he has to die. If he wants power, he should not be ashamed. If he wants shame, he must swallow his anger. That's the reason.

"Report to your Majesty, I have something to say."

As soon as the clear and gentle voice sounded, Linglong looked in the sound and saw a young man wearing a green official robe embroidered tiger pattern coming out with an elephant scepter in his hand. He first saluted, and then said: "I am the attendant of the Hanlin Academy, Lu You, and I am willing to share your worries for Your Majesty."

Linglong blinked without responding. She first looked at the man from head to toe. In later history, he said that he "face is like a pink, eyes are like meteors, tiger body, ape arms, and wolf waist, and is a vast and extraordinary talent." He was a figure with extraordinary talent and intelligence. Compared with the gentle and dedicated Emperor Xiaozong, this Wei Taizu is a different charm, which is more in line with the imagination of the emperor in later generations. He said that he was determined to kill. But at this moment, he was not Wei Taizu, but a fifth-rank civil official in the Dali Dynasty. His official robe only showed his slender figure. As for the ape arms and wolf waist, he couldn't tell that he was very tall and had a very thin waist.

He is a perfect young man.

Judging from the temperament, it is not as recorded in later generations. As a result, you are now hiding your strength and preparing to play a pig and eat a tiger. How can you show off all your trump cards?

The dynasties are just alternating, and it is hard to tell who is right or wrong. But now she is the emperor. If Lu You have any thoughts... she will not care whether history will change because of this.

"Lu Aiqing, but it's okay."

Lu You bowed again: "I think that although the three masters disobey Your Majesty, they have worked diligently to serve the country for many years, and have worked hard without any contribution. It is better to ask the three masters to make up for the fined salary - in this way, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

Linglong thought to herself, this person is really good at being a human being. She can't cut off the heads of three people because of the small matter of the number of words in the letter. However, if you don't give up the punishment, it will be difficult to establish your authority. The method proposed by Lu You is really good. The salary of these three people being fined is also an astronomical figure. Although they are fined, their lives are safe and can maintain their official status. In the vassal kings who surrender to the family, they are unwilling to speak for themselves, but a Hanlin Academy attendant stood up... They really don't offend both sides and please both sides.

"Well." Linglong sighed, "I originally thought of the first offenders of the three beloved ministers, and I thought of suspending their posts for three months and thinking about their mistakes. However, I think this method is better. Then I will limit the three beloved ministers to make up the money they will be fined within one day, and then suspending them for three months!"

Lu You could almost feel the scorching eyes of the three adults penetrating their skin, but he retreated without changing his face. Linglong also wanted to praise him: "Lu Qing really knows my heart."

Lu You:...

Is this really just an eleven-year-old girl? Or is it the royal bloodline that cannot be inferred based on common sense?

But at the moment, the little empress clearly lacks a capable minister standing on her side. Now she uses ruthless means to shock the court officials. The most lacking is a person who can trust. Even if he stands up at this time, he will not be trusted and should not be treated like this. The little empress put him on the fire and roasted him in a few words!
