Chapter 16: The Night Owl Enters the House

"Auntie, you asked me to please that kid. This ......"

Dou Ying knelt beside the Empress Dowager Dou, and the expression on her face was as ugly as constipation.

"Hmph, rat eyes. Are you also blind when you are blind, or is the so-called face covering your eyes? This kid can now influence the situation in Chang'an, if Weiyang Palace unites with him. 10,000 Yulin plus his 2,000 iron horsemen will destroy the Dou family and destroy you by ploughing the court and sweeping the caves.

At this time, you still care about slapping him, that kid is a money kid, and he doesn't want you to give it to his daughter. But even the South Palace has been released, are you still reluctant to give up a few acres of land? ”

Dou Ying complained bitterly in her heart, and said in her heart: I would rather give up my daughter, as long as he can see it, I will send it away. But I didn't dare to say this openly, so I could only chirp and keep silent.

"The Dou family is now powerful, and they have been suspicious of His Majesty. The old body didn't have the mind to learn from Lu Hou, and he didn't have the energy. But the old man is also a member of the Dou family, and he can't watch the decline of the Dou family. None of you people are angry, and you have been given so many official positions. But which of you has done something like a person, you know how to eat, drink and be merry all day long.

If the old body goes, how can the Dou family get it. Now you don't want to cut out a little land, what else can you do? ”

Dou Ying's attitude made the Empress Dowager Dou quite sad, as the most outstanding talent of the Dou family's generation. Dou Ying couldn't see through the current situation, and there was already an undercurrent surging under Chang'an City, which was like a calm lake on the surface. The emperor has already transferred Li Guangcheng back from time to time, if it weren't for the Dou family's control of the forbidden army. I'm afraid it's already in motion.

"My aunt was angry, and Dou Ying went to the Yun family to hand over the title deed. The matter of entrusting Liu Biao to buy land must not be pursued by Dou Ying again. ”

"It's good that you have that attitude. The number one priority right now is to stabilize that kid. At least don't let him be an enemy of the Dou family, if the emperor dies and the crown prince succeeds to the throne, you can't run away from the title of prime minister. ”

The Yun family has been very lively recently, and the bigwigs in the court are shuttling back and forth like a marquee. sent away Li Guang, who was eating nonsense, and the next day Yunxiao ushered in the new prime minister.

Wei Juan didn't have the joy of being the prime minister, got off the carriage with a bitter gourd face, and didn't greet Yun Xiao and went straight to Yun Xiao's study. He is used to the Yun family, and he can feel where Yun Xiao's study is with his eyes closed.

"It's too late for others to be happy when you become prime minister, why do you still have this bitter gourd face."

After the maid served tea, Wei Juan drove them all out.

"It's just that others say that, you say the same. Now being a prime minister seems to be frying in a frying pan. Today His Majesty issued an edict. Tomorrow, Changle Palace will hand over a word. I'm in a dilemma right now, and I'm about to be torn apart.

You hurry up and help me think of ideas, and if you continue like this, your majesty will not be satisfied with me. Changle Palace must also be dissatisfied with me. It doesn't matter if the official is inappropriate, it is difficult to say whether this life can be saved. ”

It seems that Wei Juan's splint is not light. There's no way around it. There are many things for him to do. However, the meaning of the two houses is often reversed. Liu Qi's subordinate was a holy decree, and Wei Juan did not dare to object. He didn't dare to disobey the words handed over by the Queen Mother. When he first became the prime minister, Wei Juan once thought of this situation, but he never expected that it would have developed to such a strict point now.

"That's it...... You're a bit too sloppy. The head of a hundred officials, such a big official, actually made you think like this. It's really rare in ancient and modern times. ”

Yun Xiao said while playfully drinking tea.

"Don't stand and talk without backache, it's not you who sits in this position. Hurry up and help my brother think of a way, you will definitely have a way in your brain. ”

Wei Xuan's tone was almost pleading, and looking at the expression of this old comrade-in-arms, Yun Xiao also felt a little helpless.

"Prime Minister, Prime Minister, connect the previous and the next. You are the head of the hundred officials, and I still need to teach you this point, and you are really going back more and more as you live. Whatever yamen His Majesty's will should be given, you will grant it to. The meaning of Changle Palace, which yamen is involved, you let that person go to which yamen. When the subordinates come to you, you just say a word, and handle it according to the rules of the imperial court.

It's not about things, and I don't care about things. This is your attitude as a prime minister, and you are guaranteed to survive this period of time without danger. As for the future, it seems that you won't be able to do it for long. In the future, let the future people worry about it. ”

Yun Xiao took a sip of tea, the officialdom philosophy of the Celestial Empire was like this. For this reason, a proper noun was also invented called Tai Chi Tuishou, also known as kicking the ball. It is the supreme mastery of the officialdom, and those who have achieved cultivation open their mouths is official clichΓ©. When you open your mouth, you must say the rules, and when you close your mouth, you must say instructions. Anyway, if you make a mistake, you don't say a word, and you don't say anything about making a mistake.

Seeing that Dahan, an old bird who has been in officialdom for decades, has not yet reached the entry level, Yun Xiao regrets the lack of officialdom culture of Dahan.

Wei Juan's eyes lit up, yes. There is still such a yamen under the prime minister, why do you have to carry things down by yourself, Lao Tzu can't let you feel better. This old guy naturally does not lack the courage to carry the black pot together, and in order to reduce his burden, the prime minister decided to pull more people into the water.

After Yun Xiao's pointing, the Prime Minister almost immediately comprehended the supreme mastery of mixed officialdom. The gloomy clouds and mist when I came have all disappeared, and my face is already happy to see my teeth and eyes.

"High, high, really high."

The Prime Minister gave Yun Xiao a six-character proverb, and Yun Xiao sounded a little familiar.

After eating and drinking in the Yun family, the prime minister left satisfied. Before leaving, he also packed a large box of grapes from the Yun family, saying that he was going home to honor his mother. Filial piety to the old lady has to be supported, but Yun Xiao still asked suspiciously: "Ling Gaotang didn't pass away ten years ago, how can he ......?"

"A loving mother always lives in her true heart."

Oops, being so shameless really made Yun Xiao immediately feel like a mountain was standing up.

Wei Juan left, and Dou Ying came. Compared with the regular customer Wei Juan, Dou Ying is a rare guest. This rare guest is usually a night owl who comes into the house and does not come to the house.

"Marquis of Lintong, if you fancy the old man's land, you will say it directly. Why do you want to make Zong Zhengqing troublesome, come and come and come and come The old man will bring the title deed today, and we will officially hand it over today. Where is Nangong, my cousin didn't know how to come out to greet her, and this girl became more and more rude. Yunhou, you have to discipline and discipline well. ”

Dou Ying moved out of the style of an elder, which made Yun Xiao confused. I don't know what this night owl has in mind. But it doesn't look like Xingshi is asking for guilt, because there are a few family members behind him. Not even a weapon was worn.

"Uh...... Wei Qihou please. Yun Xiao prepared a little water and wine, and invited Wei Qihou to appreciate his face. ”

Yun Xiao reluctantly led Dou Ying inside, and did not answer Dou Ying's words. Because he hadn't figured out how to deal with the situation in front of him, he also ordered the eunuch to call Nangong over. After all, as soon as Dou Ying entered the door, he picked his niece's gift, and it was indeed rude to come out to greet him as a niece and cousin.

"I have long heard that Lintong is rich, and when I see it today, it really deserves its reputation. Compared with my Nanshan, it is really heaven and earth, and the old man really has to learn from the Marquis of Lintong on this economic journey. Hehehe. ”

In the gorgeous restaurant, Dou Ying gently knocked on the glass curiously. Looking at Lintong outside the window, he couldn't help but say with emotion.

"It's just a trail, and Wei Qihou has a wide range of friends. The three mountains and five mountains all have friends, and this is what Yunxiao should learn. ”

Tout each other that this set of Yunxiao has been played skillfully, and you give Lao Tzu face. Lao Tzu will give you the lining, and you won't lose a piece of meat if you blow it.

"The old man also wants to thank Yunhou for giving the business of soy sauce and yellow sauce to our Dou family. How embarrassing is such a heavy gift, here is the title deed of 100 acres of fertile land in Nanshan. Please also ask Lintong Hou to collect it, and Yunhou can send someone to deliver it at any time. ”

Dou Ying said as he took out a roll of bamboo slips from the lacquerware box held by the family. handed it to Yun Xiao very solemnly, making Yun Xiao a little at a loss, not knowing whether to take it or not.

A pair of tender white hands took over the bamboo slips, relieving Yun Xiao's embarrassment. Nangong smiled and said to Dou Ying: "In this way, then thank my cousin." I knew that my cousin was so open-minded, so I didn't need to trouble Grandpa Liu Biao to change his hand. (To be continued......)
