Wang Qi sat quietly in the corner of the study room, gently rubbing her sore wrist a few times, but still had to pick up the pen and copy the copy she had hurriedly recorded.
After a few days, the King of Han summoned more than ten ministers alone, all of whom were distinguished and held great power.
They came here one after another, and they first reported their official duties to the King of Han. Everyone would tell the King clearly about their political achievements, difficulties they encountered, or even things they had done wrong.
This obviously greatly increased the workload of the reporter's office. After a few days, Wang Qi's chubby little face became a little dim, and she obviously couldn't take it anymore.
But she would never let the other Yang Jishi come to help. The King of Han summoned his ministers privately, and now she was accompanying him. The internal and external forces were already clear.
If Yang Xu breaks the rules, she can argue with reason and knock back the protruding claws. But if she doesn't live up to her expectations, then she can't blame others for causing trouble. Yang Xu is a descendant of the Hongnong Yang family and has an older brother.
When working in the Ministry of Punishments, one would not look down upon a talented woman from the Wang family if one were to be rude.
In fact, what Wang Qi worries about is somewhat different from that of external officials. Once her position as a reporter falls aside, in what capacity should she stay in the Han Dynasty palace?
This was the joint she feared the most, so she could only grit her teeth and endure the pain no matter how great it was. What's more, the pain she suffered was actually not that great, it was just a few more words to write.
In comparison, Li Po, the owner of this study, seemed very leisurely. At this time, he was supporting his head with one hand, and in the other hand, a shining copper coin was dancing back and forth between his fingers, like
An elf was jumping there as hard as he could, but he couldn't get out of the way.
Wang Qi looked up from time to time, and every time she was surprised, thinking that if this person walked around the streets of Jinyang, he might be able to attract people to watch and earn a lot of copper coins.
Well, the talented Wang family has stayed in a place like the Han Palace for a long time, and her imagination has become much richer, but the things she thinks about are inevitably changed.
If Li Po knew her true feelings, he might have to settle the accounts with her.
Of course, Wang Qi would not know that such skills would later become the basis of professions such as crooks, pickpockets, and magicians. In addition to exercising the flexibility of the fingers, it could also put people's minds in a calm state.
It's a very good pastime.
Li Po also practiced for a period of time before picking up this skill again. This could relax his tense spirit. It was like one of the secrets of the Li family and would not be shown in front of others easily.
Of course, this is all a joke. Once a little game like this is played by His Highness the King of Han in front of everyone, what will be received is definitely not the voice of praise, but the advice of his ministers, because this is too ungraceful and not at all
In line with Li Po's identity and status, Wang Qi's perception can prove this.
This is an age when those in power are not allowed to be frivolous. Once they lose their frivolity, the reputation of being stupid will follow.
So it can only be a private game, not visible to others.
Suddenly, Li Po flicked his palm slightly, and the copper coin flew high. When it fell, Li Po pressed it with his backhand, and pressed the copper coin on the table with a ding sound. Li Po removed his palm and took a look, with a big smile on his face. He guessed it right.
Yes.
Wang Qi quietly buried her head and didn't dare to look again, but she was already happy in her heart. This king turned out to be... quite childish? Could it be that he was crazy?
Of course she didn't know that while other people guessing heads and tails, it was just a gamble or fun, but this person was using it to decide important matters that affected thousands of people.
Almost all the people who should be met have been met, and the limelight that should be blown has been blown away. Li Po was a little hesitant about what to do next.
The main reason is that he wants to wait a little longer. The weather is still extremely cold now, and no matter how impatient he is, it is not enough for God to send warmth, so the subsequent preparations will roughly start in February.
In this way, there will be a month's allowance. All the county governments will get the news during this time, and some political affairs must be handled urgently, otherwise the soldiers will not be able to take care of it.
So should we call everyone immediately for a pre-war meeting, or should we wait and give the ministers a few days to think about it?
Each has its own advantages, well, in the end His Highness the King of Han decided by tossing a coin...
"Here comes someone."
The person on duty outside the study today happened to be Shen Qingnu. When he heard Li Po's call, he immediately opened the door and came in to wait for instructions.
"You go to Zhongshu to deliver the order. Two days later, I will summon Zhongshu in the main hall. The chief officers of each department and General Yuchi will also inform me. They will all come to see me at that time."
Shen Qingnu responded, turned and left.
Not long after Shen Qingnu left, someone came to report and Zhang Sima asked to see him.
"Let him come in." Li Po frowned. Zhang Liang had just been sent to Pingyao a few days ago because he ordered You Yiwei General Yu Wenhuo to lead his troops to Xihe County. Zhang Liang went with the army to clean up military discipline.
This is to prepare for the subsequent war. Firstly, Li Po wants the first batch of grain and grass shipped from Jinyang to be escorted by Youyiwei Mansion. The reinforcement of troops and the grain and grass transportation will be done together, which will save a lot of trouble. Secondly, what about
, there are many soldiers in Xihe County, and this time they are recruited to participate in the war. Li Po intends to put the soldiers in Xihe County under Yu Wen Huo's command.
The military strength of Youyi Guards has always been inferior to that of other guards. Yuwen Huo is a hard-working man and has never tried to compete with others. Whether it is due to the instructions of his cousin Yu Wenxin or other reasons, anyway, this time
This was Li Po's reward for him.
Just because it cannot affect spring plowing, the recruitment of soldiers from Xihe County will be delayed, but it will not have much impact on the war. In the end, the soldiers from Xihe County will definitely fall under Yuwen Huo's account.
But within two days, Zhang Liang came back. Is this the rhythm for him to come back and complain after having an quarrel with Yuwen Huo?
But in fact, it was completely different from what Li Po thought. Zhang Liang came in a hurry, and there was actually a reason for it.
"Feng Qianli, the treasurer of the Ministry of War, took advantage of his business trip to secretly hide private messages and wanted to go to Chang'an to surrender to Li Yuan. When he was passing by Xihe, he was found out..."
Zhang Liang came back in spite of the wind and snow. After a brief conversation, he presented Li Po with the evidence of Feng Qianli's crime and the confession documents for the interrogation of Feng Qianli and his entourage.
He also knew that this was obviously causing trouble for his lord, so he did not take any credit. He sat down and drank a few sips of tea, picked up the soul that was about to freeze, and then reported the details to Li Po.
Speaking of which, Feng Qianli was rather unlucky. He was actually ordered to go to the river for business. In other words, if he reached the river safely, there was a high chance that he could escape to the other side of the river.
But in the end, he only went as far as Xihe and was caught. This cannot be blamed on Feng Qianli, but because something went wrong with his followers.
(There were too many relationships a few years ago, so updates are unstable. I apologize to everyone.)
