The temptation of the wizard

Seeing that he was confident, Xia Xixi agreed.

Yuntai also gave her the first and second episodes of "Wishing Yuntai's One Million Ways to Die", saying: "This is written by my ghost, and I will contribute it on my behalf."

Xia Xixi felt dizzy when she saw the title of the book. She said: "Ms. Zhu, you are now a famous celebrity in the world, this story... I'm afraid... I'm afraid it will ruin my editorial department."

"It's best to attract attention. I can write a power of attorney for you tomorrow."

"..."

Chapter 86

After Yuntai returned to the house for dinner, he played poker for a while with the Mavericks and Wang Niuniu brothers and sisters, and then still basked in the moonlight in the atrium, half lying in a rocking chair with eyes closed to practice exercises.

About half an hour later, Xiaolu led the emperor's father-in-law, Xiaoyu, who came, and the father-in-law said with a smile: "Zhu Shaoqing, the emperor calls you to the Wenhua Pavilion for discussion."

Yuntai: "What's the matter?"

"This..." The father-in-law hesitated for a few breaths before he whispered: "The emperor and the adults are discussing the ceremony of the Nuwa Empress. I intend to let you preside over the ceremony, so please discuss it."

Yuntai suddenly said, "In previous years, it was presided over by the national teacher, right?"

"Yes, the Nuwa Festival is usually held every three to five years, and it can be held this year."

"Not going."

"..." Father Xiaoyu said in a stunned voice: "You...you are not going to discuss matters?"

"It's off work now. Let's discuss this kind of thing at work."

"Next...off time?" Father Xiaoyu wanted to cry, "The emperor's words are the highest rule of the dynasty. The emperor summons him, how can Zhu Shaoqing refuse?"

Yuntai opened his eyes slightly, "The emperor is often rejected, do you want me to give an example?"

Father Xiaoyu's face changed slightly, "No, no need."

What Zhu Yuntai was telling was the truth. There was even a ethos of "swearing at the emperor to be proud" in the court. Those who had not scolded the emperor at the meeting were not considered bigwigs, let alone rejected the emperor.

Zhu Yuntai squinted his eyes again, completely ignoring Father Xiao Yu's intention, and the latter could only leave with a frown.

The father-in-law returned to the palace and saw that the emperor and the cabinet sirs, as well as the minister of rituals, had all arrived, and he felt pressured-I must not let the emperor be ashamed in front of the adults!

Xia Tong wondered: "Where is Zhu Shaoqing?"

The father-in-law bit his scalp and said, "Zhu Shaoqing...that, uh... the stomach is uncomfortable."

Everyone was amazed. If Shi Yuzhu's weak maiden said her stomach was uncomfortable, it would be Zhu Yuntai. Zhong Sunming was beaten to the point where she was still unable to work. Such a martial artist, her stomach is uncomfortable?

The big guys all looked at Father-in-law Xiaoyu, who was "in anxious and wise" and said: "Looking at the slave and maidservant, it looks like a problem with your daughter's house."

Most people immediately showed a playful look, but Yan Huazang and Sima Liangji frowned deeply. Sima Liangji angrily said, "Is Zhu Shaoqing male or female?"

Xia Tong looked unhappy and said, "Why did Sima Qing's family say this?"

Sima Liangji: "A few days ago I received a letter from the prefect of Hanoi, saying that Zhu Shaoqing publicly recognized himself as a man. He said the same thing when he refused the edict. Why is there a problem with his daughter's family now?"

"Huh?" Father-in-law Xiao Yu was shocked-could it be that Sajia made up a very outrageous lie?

Everyone once again looked at Father-in-law Xiaoyu, who did not dare to look up, hesitated and said: "Suwen Hou, the prefect is quite romantic, Zhu Shaoqing said in front of him that he is a man, maybe... also a helpless move?"

Everyone suffocated, these words... seemed to make sense!

Yan Huazang said, "Yuntai is successful in qi training and has excellent medical skills. Both men and women should be able to get rid of such minor diseases, but are they injured?"

Father Xiao Yu was sweating on his forehead. He really wanted to smoke a few big mouths. Why did he come out with such words, but at this time he had to bite the bullet and write it down, so he said: "The cabinet is right. The slave maid’s meaning is... after the injury, it happened to be something wrong with the daughter’s family, so the stomach hurts."

Everyone was dubious, and at this time the emperor said annoyedly: "Retreat."

The father-in-law, as if he was amnesty, trot to stand under the steps, still bowing his head.

So the discussion began. Yan Huazang first mentioned the memorial to Zhu Yuntai. He changed his attitude from years of perfunctory, with a tough tone and a solemn expression. The emperor also agreed. The rest of the cabinet was ambiguity. I had to agree.

Xia Tong welcomes Zhu Yuntai's memorial very much. In the past, when encountering natural disasters or turmoil, it was basically the emperor who committed crimes on his own. Xia Tong felt angry after thinking about the situation. It would be fairer for everyone to carry it together.

Later, I will discuss the Nvwa Empress Ceremony, which is of course an action against the Taoist Master. It seems that everyone agrees with the judgment "I wish the official of Yuntai won't do it for a long time", so we have to let "she" be in office. Complete the task of weakening the Tao of Heavenly Master.

The Nuwa Empress Ceremony was a grand sacrificial event held every few years in the Xia Dynasty. Not only did it have a huge impact among the people, but also the powerful and aristocratic families also attached great importance to it. Naturally, it was also a great opportunity to win over the hearts of the people. To attract the attention of those aristocratic families, thereby weakening the influence of the Heavenly Master Tao.

It's a pity that Zhu Shaoqing didn't even come to the meeting, and she didn't know whether "she" was willing to cooperate.

After discussing for a while, the emperor was absent, so he spread the meeting. He returned to the harem and suddenly asked Xiao Yu justly: "Why didn't Zhu Shaoqing come to the meeting?"

At this time, there were no big men from foreign dynasties present, and father-in-law Xiaoyu had to confess: "Zhu Shaoqing said that it is time for work, and we will discuss it after get off work."

The emperor said hesitantly: "This is her style." After a few steps, he paused and said: "Then you say... is she a boy or a girl?"

Father-in-law Xiaoyu feels a headache, and he is quite speechless about the emperor. What is the matter with the woman?

I had no choice but to answer: "The slave servant believes in Zhu Shaoqing."

Xia Tong snorted to express his dissatisfaction.

Yu Jingzhong's suspicion about Zhu Shaoqing's gender intensified.

On October 11, the memorial submitted by Zhu Yuntai was approved. The cabinet has already ordered Hou Yuanwei to clarify the list of the victims of the drought in Hanoi. The pension will be kept secret for the time being. The court will also send someone to assist. With the inspection, the cabinet also sent someone to ask Zhu Yuntai’s opinion. After thinking about it, he directed Linghuqing and claimed that he would send ghosts to monitor secretly. If someone is greedy for petty gains or stalks him, he will die unconsciously. So much.

This is not a joke. On the same day, he skipped work and went to Hanoi to ask the Mavericks to contact a group of little ghosts to find out the news for him.

He asked Mavericks to bring a bottle of mosquito repellent toilet water, promised that every kid would get a bottle of toilet water after the event, and reward those with merits as appropriate, and easily "catch all the little ghosts".

The cost of the toilet water is also very low, only a bottle of more than a dozen yuan, and he can make a large tank in two or three days by himself.

Now that he was in Hanoi, Yuntai asked for the way to Enlezhuang, and arrived at the door of Linghu's house when it was getting dark.

Linghu's family lives in a farmyard, which is naturally not as good-looking as Yujing's attic, but the place is quite large. I wish Yuntai would ride on a horse, so I could just see the things inside the wall. I saw a few little girls holding rice bowls and eating porridge on the ground floor. , The two larger ones drove a group of chicks back to the chicken coop.

Sitting under the eaves of the main house was a kind-looking middle-aged woman, dressed in coarse linen, with her head down and shoes.

When Zhu Yuntai looked at the woman, the woman also looked up suddenly, the two eyes contacted, and the woman immediately went back to the house with tools and shoes.

Yuntai couldn't help frowning.

At this time, the sound of horseshoes came, and it was Linghuqing who led several colleagues on horseback.

"Zhu Shaoqing, why are you here?" Linghuqing asked unexpectedly after jumping off the horse.

At this time, the girls in the courtyard ran out like a swarm, all cheering "brother", and then threw on Linghuqing's lap.
