Looking at Cui Yun who was concentrating on polishing ink, doing a set of movements smoothly and orderly, but still looking lonely, Sheng Shaoqing suddenly had a bold idea in his mind.
"Tell me, if Cui Yun saw Lou Yujing with his own eyes, would he change his mind?"
【What? Host, are you asking me? 】
"Nonsense! Is there anyone else here now?"
[Host, not everything can end at the beginning. If you feel that the benefits of this matter outweigh the disadvantages, you can do it. Naturally, if any accident occurs, you will also be responsible for it. After all,
You are an adult and are responsible for your own choices.】
"However, I think if we meet...what kind of surprises can there be?"
[Who can say for sure? However, as your system, it can only provide you with suggestions and help. You still have to walk the road yourself. 】
Sheng Shaoqing was wondering, which string in the system was not tightened correctly today, why was he so depressed?
"What's wrong with you?"
【ah?】
The system paused for a moment, [Mr. Cangsu’s new book is very well written. I suddenly understood many philosophies of life, and then I gained some insights. Host, please don’t be influenced by me.]
Sheng Shaoqing: Are you emo?
wrong!
Why do you have the latest storybook!
"Ha! You peeked?!"
The system doesn't care. [I'm just checking the quality of the script for you in advance. If you want to know, I can tell you now.]
!!!!
“Don’t give me spoilers!!!!!”
"Your Majesty, the pen and paper are ready for you to use."
Sheng Shaoqing walked slowly over, thought for a moment, and wrote eloquently for a long time. After the ink dried, he handed it to Cui Yun, "After sealing it, I quickly sent it to Yun Shangshu, and then went to the Gyeonggi garrison to convey the order. Recently, I have mourned
I feel unwell and I want to go to Jingning Temple to worship Buddha and pray for blessings. The security in Gyeonggi Province needs to be strengthened in the past two days, and all vehicles coming and going must be strictly inspected before they can be released."
Cui Yun asked doubtfully, "Empress Dowager, why do you suddenly want to go to Jingning Temple?"
Sorry, she has only heard of this Buddhist temple...
"Don't worry, when the Ai family returns to the palace, let the guards in Gyeonggi relax."
Only then did Cui Yun react, "My dear, are you trying to lure a snake out of its hole?"
Sheng Shaoqing nodded, "If they are going to take action in the next two days, we will not be able to prepare in time. If the action is serious, we may be able to scare the snake. Only by letting them relax their vigilance can we invite you to catch the turtle in the urn."
"Then why let them out of the city? If the guards find out, wouldn't it be better to capture them on the spot?"
"Ajun, if you stole something, would you transport it yourself?"
Cui Yun shook his head, "Then how are you sure that any of them will go to Chenliu?"
"Wang Shanggong said that they will change the carriage in Chenliu, and Wang will escort them south. For such an important matter, there must be someone with a high status among the thieves present. Otherwise, if something happens, who will be blamed?"
This leadership responsibility system never goes out of style anywhere.
"After someone has stolen something, wouldn't it be easier to catch them all by following their clues?"
Cui Yun was greatly impressed when she heard this. The Queen Mother was really thoughtful, but the Queen Mother's next words made her doubt her judgment.
"Ajun, do you want to meet Lou Yujing?"
"Ah?" Cui Yun was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to react. Why did the Queen Mother think so and ask this?
Seeing Cui Yun's expression, Sheng Shaoqing was sure in his heart that this must be what he wanted to see. He was so happy that he couldn't think about it anymore.
Back then, she had the same expression when she was successful in chasing stars.
"The Ai family is saying that Lou Yujing's articles are good and the Ai family wants to meet him. If he has the talent to become an official, wouldn't it be a pity to remain in the opposition?"
Cui Yun was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then continued, "What the Queen Mother said makes sense, I will go and make arrangements right away."
Lou Yujing used to be noble and unparalleled, and would not bow down to the powerful. Now that he is willing to write a poem for the Queen Mother, he naturally has an agenda. If he can help him, it can be regarded as fulfilling her admiration for so many years.
She hoped that he would have a prosperous official career and become a general or prime minister from now on, but he would no longer be the handsome young man in her heart who regarded wealth as floating clouds.
Sheng Shaoqing was a little surprised. Cui Yun's expression did not look happy, "Ajun, if you have any ideas, you can just say it without holding it back."
Cui Yun shook his head, "People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places. The world is like this, and even a small official can't control it."
"You don't want him to be an official?"
Cui Jun was silent for a long time, and then decided to speak the truth, "The Queen Mother, I don't dare to deceive you. I am selfish and really don't want him to become an official in the court."
"What? Is it because he has no talent or virtue? No way, if he was useless, you wouldn't praise him highly. What could be the reason?"
Sheng Shaoqing really couldn't understand.
Cui Jun sighed and said, "Wei Chen can recite Mr. Lou's articles by heart. Wei Chen appreciates his solitary appearance and longs for his freedom. If he can do this all his life, Wei Chen will be able to get what he wants.
"
"Wei Chen, let me say something disrespectful. Wei Chen has no possibility of freedom in this life. Therefore, Wei Chen does not want Mr. Lou to be forgiven in this world. However, since this is Mr. Lou's own choice, Wei Chen has nothing to say about it.
, but Wei Chen is just a little disappointed."
Isn't the end of the universe just the establishment?
It would not be surprising if Lou Yujing wanted to be an official. However, the persona he had set up in the past was not suitable for officialdom and he aspired to be mediocre. Now that he suddenly changes his mind, there is a possibility of collapse.
However, after those people who clamored to live in Nanshan forever and return to the countryside, after becoming famous through their talent and treating fame and fortune like dirt, not most of them were invited back by the emperor. In fact, this was also a way to save the country.
"You can make your way into the world by becoming an official in the court. Ajun, could you have misunderstood him?"
Cui Yun didn't speak, and after a while he sighed, "Maybe, it turns out that what Wei Chen has been seeking all his life is nothing more than a burden that can be easily obtained in the eyes of others."
"The humble minister made a mistake, please punish the Queen Mother."
Sheng Shaoqing helped Cui Yun up and looked into her clear eyes, "If you want freedom, the Aijia will allow you, but you must first tell the Aijia what kind of freedom you want?"
Cui Yun lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then said, "When Weichen was young, he was taught to be virtuous and virtuous in the future, and to be a good girl and a good queen. However, Weichen's temperament was out of control, and he often made people take care of Weichen.
When my mother-in-law gets angry, she will scold me and say, how can you get married like this?"
"Then the ministers will push back. Why should I get married?"
Cui Yun smiled and continued, "Mother Fu was so angry with me that she would whip me with a cane and scold me at the same time. All girls want to get married, but I am different!"
