Chapter 102 The Attitude of Emperor Zhaowu
Since Guantao decided to go out for the second time, he swept away his loose appearance and immediately followed Qin Lei back to Shuxiang Pavilion.
Because Tieying and the others offended the Taiwei Mansion, they stayed in the mansion honestly without Qin Lei's orders. As soon as Qin Lei came back, he announced that he would close the mansion and re-inspect all the palace servants he served.
After instructing Tieying to strengthen his vigilance, he wanted to raise his legs and walk to the front yard. After walking a few steps, he stopped, smiled with self-deprecatingly, and then turned back.
Shen Bing, who was following behind, knew that since the prince had not fought for Qin Lei to inspect the temple, he rarely called Qin Lei three times a day to have dinner and chat as before. On the surface, it seemed that the prince felt guilty and was hiding from Qin Lei. But even the likes of Shen Bing knew that this was not the case.
Qin Lei's heart was open. There were too many things that seemed unfavorable to him on New Year's Eve. First, the emperor not only did not fight for a seat to patrol the temple for him, but also accused Prime Minister Wen of dragging him into the black hole of the Ministry of Revenue. In addition, at night, he was placed among a group of small officials, which was obviously indifferent to the emperor.
What's more, I offended the Grand Marshal and the eldest prince. It is also appropriate for the prince to deal with a cold treatment for a troublesome person like me.
But even though he had so many reasons to convince himself, he was still a little sad. The children of the Tian family were indeed a little cold-hearted. If they felt that helping you was good, they would look warm and warm, helping the poor and helping the poor. When they felt that you were not only worthless, but even implicated him, they would change into a cold face that was not related to their own affairs. The little brotherly affection that he had finally cultivated disappeared without a trace.
It’s okay for the third and fourth brothers to say that, after all, everyone was unhappy when they met. But the second brother always treated him well, which made Qin Lei feel that it would be good to support the prince to take office and be a wise king of the country in the future. Who would have thought that the prince would push himself off the boat if there was a lot of storm.
I don’t know how many storms are waiting for Qin Lei in the future! Therefore, Qin Lei finally met Guantao’s conditions. Guantao once said that if Qin Lei’s target was a prince, he would be enough to be a guest minister, and there was no need to worry about his mind and physical strength.
Qin Lei knew that his situation was not as bad as it seemed. Emperor Zhaowu's teachings and even obscure warnings could explain the problem. He did not think that the emperor would be more irrelevant to a useless person. When he described the situation of that day to Guantao, Guantao only said to him one sentence: "The emperor wants to use you."
Since this is the case, the emperor had to do what he wanted to be alone. Qin Lei closed his doors and doors.
I wanted to avoid this right and wrong, but right and wrong came to my door. Two days later, a decree in the palace: Prince Xuan Wu Lei met with Changshui Pavilion.
Qin Lei asked someone to call the eunuch to send an order, and took the opportunity to change the royal clothes in the back hall to meet Guantao. Guantao pondered for a moment and said excitedly: "Your Highness is gone, just talk fairly. Our opportunity to get millet in the fire is here."
The emperor summoned him, how could he dare to be negligent? Half an hour later, Emperor Zhaowu saw Qin Lei wearing a black dragon king robe in the study. Looking at Qin Lei who was sweating on his forehead, his cold expression calmed slightly.
After Qin Lei finished his salute, the emperor gave him a seat. Emperor Zhaowu did not talk nonsense and asked directly: "There have been a fire in the past two days and it is in chaos. Are you okay?"
Qin Lei replied respectfully: "My son stays honestly in the mansion, safe and sound."
When Emperor Zhaowu saw his respectful appearance, he was angry and said coldly: "I taught you to be 'be careful of being alone', it's not that you are asking you to hide at home and not go out."
Qin Lei knew that this was just an introduction, so he quickly got up and laughed a few times. Emperor Zhaowu didn't want to talk about this, so he scolded him and then passed by. Instead, he asked, "I heard that the boss said that day that he wanted you to 'wait and see', but this is the case?"
Qin Lei nodded and said, "This is the case, but since I am disrespectful to Empress Ru first, it is better for my elder brother to beat me up. I will definitely not fight back."
This means that the boss can vent his anger to a limit, but not to be too hot. The emperor tapped the table with his finger and said, "I know that that matter is not your original intention, and you have also received a double penalty. I have told Qin Li not to cause trouble for you. Don't worry."
Qin Lei hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you for your protection." After that, he laughed and said, "Looking at the majestic appearance of my elder brother, I am really afraid of his jealous fist."
Zhaowu couldn't help but smile, and said softly: "You have apologized to Lao Da in a few days and revealed this chapter. Brothers are harmonious. The truth is."
Qin Lei's heart moved slightly and quickly responded: "I will definitely not worry about my father."
Seeing that he was so obedient, Emperor Zhaowu got to the point of today. He pointed to a memorial at the table and asked Qin Lei to take it to read.
Qin Lei respectfully stepped forward, took off his hands, returned to his seat, opened it and saw that it was the Kyoto fire in Kyoto Prefecture.
He glanced briefly and was secretly shocked by the great loss. When Emperor Zhaowu saw him finishing reading, he said in a deep voice: "The residences of six princes, seven government offices, and four thousand private houses were burned into white land. This is the loss that was not caused by the chaos in Kyoto sixteen years ago."
Tens of thousands of people lost their homes due to the fire in the past two days, and Qin Lei nodded silently.
Emperor Zhaowu narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "This matter cannot be as simple as it seems. I have instructed Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and the Kyoto Prefecture to investigate strictly. The matter involves the royal family, and the clan's office should also come forward. I have asked Emperor Jia..."
Qin Lei listened quietly, fearing that he would miss every word of the emperor.
Emperor Zhaowu paused and said in a solemn voice: "He recommends you to represent the Tian family to do this job."
Qin Lei's expression remained unchanged, and he stood up and bowed, "The child is willing to share his worries for his father, but he has not experienced enough, so he is afraid that he will mess up his errands."
Emperor Zhaowu nodded and said, "Don't be self-deprecating, not be self-esteem. Not bad. Just remember three points, even if you finish your errand this time."
"I listen carefully."
"Listen more and talk less, think less and think more, dare to speak and do."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Listen more and talk less, think less and think more, dare to speak and do?" Guantao smiled and said to Qin Lei who returned to the mansion: "Listen more and talk less is to make Your Highness learn humbly. Think more and do less is to make you pay attention to your heart. Dare to speak and do dare to do it, so that you should stand up at critical moments and safeguard Your Majesty's position."
"Your Majesty's position?" Qin Lei pondered.
"Yes, since Your Majesty has said that His Highness wants His Highness to be 'brotherly harmonious', it is to let you keep His Highness."
