Chapter 34: Edict

Lu Sheng looked aggrieved and was speechless at this time.

He is not stupid. His Majesty promoted Lai Junchen and other rogues before, which has aroused countless opposition. Now that he recommends a cook, he has to be prepared to be sprayed to death. Now His Majesty is still here to ask what official position should be granted. Isn’t this pushing people into the fire pit?

Lu Sheng was well aware of the non-violent and non-cooperating methods of the Indians, so he simply pretended to be stupid.

Wu Zetian smiled and saw through his thoughts at first glance: "Then can you be the envoy of the Palace Courtyard?"

Lu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then his soul was scattered.

Although this imperial envoy is just a supervisory agency, it was extremely important in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The imperial envoy set up a Taiyuan, a Palace and a Censorate, each performing its duties. The Attorney Envoy in the Palace was not high, but it was only a seventh rank. To be honest, this official position was not as good as the dog in Lu Sheng's eyes. But the actual situation was different. The Attorney Envoy was responsible for supervising all officials, and the news came from the news. When Wu Zetian ascended the throne, it even became a tool to crack down on dissidents. For example, Lai Junchen, who is now in the limelight, is now the sixth rank of the Attorney Envoy, who is a little higher than the Attorney Envoy in the Palace Court, but his authority is huge, and some royal families even scrambled to curry favor with him and dare not rebel.

Now His Majesty asked himself whether Qin Shaoyou could be the attendant of the palace. If he nodded, who would know if the second Lai Junchen would appear? At that time, even if he was the Minister of the Honglu Temple and had a high position and a powerful position, everyone in the world would be enough to drown him.

Lu Sheng said seriously: "Your Majesty, no. Qin Shaoyou is young and not enough to take on the heavy responsibility of supervision. Besides, he is just a commoner. Such an arrangement is too hasty, and I think it is not possible."

Wu Zetian showed regret: "Can't you be an attendant? This is a dilemma." She sighed softly and said, "Then, I will think about it again. In short, although you have small mistakes, you also have the merits of recommending talents to the country, which is considered to be a comparison of merits and demerits..."

Wu Zetian stood up with a smile. She deliberately mentioned the credit, and this credit was actually a hot potato, and he didn't dare to take it.

But at the moment, he could not refute. The only thing he could expect was that Qin Shaoyou was more reliable, because according to the Tang system, if there were talented people in the market, a high-ranking official like Lu Sheng was qualified to recommend it. However, in order to prevent the appointment of private individuals, there was a system of continuous seating. If Qin Shaoyou was unreliable, Lu Sheng's good life would not last long. If Qin Shaoyou committed a crime, his silverfish bag would probably be out of stock. If this guy was crazy, it would be even worse. The whole family would have to take it in and eat for a lifetime of prison.

Wu Zetian had already grown up. She smiled slightly and said to Qin Shaoyou: "I should have summoned you in the palace, but I never thought that I would have had a long talk with you here in the end, so you can do it yourself."

Qin Shaoyou hurriedly said: "The people who are in charge of the order."

Wu Zetian moved and stood up and returned to the palace.

The vast palace servants and guards lined up for several miles, gathering the emperor toward the Zetian Gate.

…………

Lu Sheng and Qin Shaoyou were sending their carriage outside Huaiyuan Post, and waited until the emperor's carriage disappeared.

The two of them exhaled a breath of turbid air at the same time.

It's really not easy.

Then Lu Sheng looked at Qin Shaoyou sideways. He was a little worried. He had "recommended" Qin Shaoyou. Is this person reliable? If it is unreliable, it will cost human life. So he was wondering whether he should test it and touch it.

"Qin Shaoyou? Is Shaoyou a name or a name?"

Qin Shaoyou said: "I haven't written yet."

Lu Sheng despised him in his heart. He was indeed a grass man, but he still said with a faint smile: "The dishes you cook are very good, have you ever married?"

Qin Shaoyou scratched his head and said, "No."

Lu Sheng frowned. People who have not married are not reliable. A single man will make trouble one day and will harm people a lot.

Lu Sheng has regarded him as an unstable factor, and the focus of the goal of maintaining WEN is still trying to squeeze out his smile: "It seems that he is not as old as a marriage, and he has done this at a young age. Very good, very good. I love young men like you the most. Young people don't know the taste of sorrow, haha... When I was as old as you, I was also young and frivolous. When I saw you, I thought of my former self."

Lu Sheng laughed heartily, but in fact he buried the dark nails.

Qin Shaoyou shook his head and said honestly: "You are not aware of what you have. Caomin is from a humble family and occasionally he doesn't know how to be polite, but the word "frivolous" is wronged by Caomin."

Lu Sheng's eyes lit up and he said, "Is that right?" He said to himself, if he could be honest and decent, it would be considered that my ancestors of the Lu family had accumulated great virtues.

Seeing that Lu Sheng didn't believe it, Qin Shaoyou hurriedly said, "Sir, I don't know. After Caomin lost his father, there was a named Zhou Zheng who bullied Caomin every few days. Caomin endured it again and again, and he still let them bully..."

Lu Sheng was overjoyed. It turned out that this guy knew that the world was so high that it would not cause any trouble, so that would be better.

He couldn't help but stroke his beard, shook his head and said, "It's okay to be the best person if he endured the hardships. Oh, does that person still bully you? Don't worry, I'm the one who decides for you."

Qin Shaoyou shook his head and said, "This is not necessary."

Lu Sheng breathed a long sigh again. This guy was addicted to being abused. He refused to stand up for him. It was a pity that this guy would not cause any trouble in the future.

However, Qin Shaoyou's next words made Lu Sheng stunned.

"Because Cao Min later sued him for three lawsuits, not only did he ask the personal parents to beat him hard, but his son broke his legs."

"I sued the three complaints..." It seems to be a bit familiar, why is it the three complaints?

Yes, Lu Sheng suddenly remembered that a few days ago, something earth-shaking in Luoyang was said to be a young man who beat the drum three times in a row, and was unprecedented and no one came later. He shocked the court and the public. This matter is known from all over the world, even Lu Sheng cannot avoid the common people.

At that time, there were occasional gatherings on the official side. When everyone talked about the Luoyang ruling, they couldn't help but mocked him, saying that the county magistrate was really cowardly and actually let a troublemaker play tricks on him.

So many people consciously summarized the young man who sued him into the list of troublemakers. In short, such troublemakers must cause trouble. If they encounter them, they must be severely punished.

He...is that troublemaker...

Lu Sheng was shocked all over and couldn't speak for a long time. His eyes were a little wet, so he raised his chin to avoid losing his composure. His eyes were 45 degrees towards the sky and looked straight at the sun. The sunlight shot into his eyes, causing the wetness in his eyes to gather into a pool of physical tears, and it slid down the corners of his eyes.

Finally, he calmed down, then looked at Qin Shaoyou meaningfully, put his hand on his back intimately, and said, "Qin Shaoyou, you should take the word ". Since I am your elder, I will not be surprised, right?"

Qin Shaoyou said gratefully: "Please give the word "Eternal""

Lu Sheng endured the grief, stroked his beard and shook his head, and said with a smile: "Good is the most important thing in everything, so it is better to call Hezhi. Qin Hezhi, how about it?"

In the evening, Ziwei Palace was shrouded in the rays of sunset. All the doors and windows of the palace were opened, and the sunset fell into the hall. Wu Zetian leaned against the windowsill and stared at the peony flowerbed outside the hall, and the peonies were blooming in full bloom. Whenever the peonies were in full bloom, the fragrance of the peony flowers filled the entire Luoyang City. This was a kind of intoxicating fragrance. Wu Zetian always leaned here and pondered, thinking about many past events.

But today, her phoenix eyes blew, and she did not remember the past. Behind her, several eunuchs and palace servants knelt on the ground, waiting for Wu Zetian's orders.
