Chapter 611: Minister of War

When Li Simu heard that the guard thought she was a spy, he immediately became anxious, but this man was cowardly. The more anxious he became, the more speechless he became, and his face turned red.

Another guard didn't quite agree with the previous guard's words, "If she is a spy, that would be too stupid."

When they patrolled and passed the gate, the girl was hiding behind the stone lion outside the door. Everyone knows that stone lions have certain limbs that are suspended in the air, but from this end, you can see that there is someone hiding behind the stone lion.

At first they thought they were just passing by, and they were frightened when they saw the patrolling guards, so they hid behind the stone lions.

Unexpectedly, they had patrolled around the princess's mansion several times, and they were still behind the stone lion.

It’s hard not to arouse suspicion, right?

But even with this behavior, no master with a normal IQ would be able to send out a spy with this kind of brain, right?

"Maybe stupidity is just an appearance? It's just to make us lower our guard."

"Uh..., it's really possible."

Good guy, everyone around here looked at Li Simu with hostility, and they really regarded her as a spy or even an assassin.

Qi Bao'er was left speechless, but she saw that the soul in the little girl's body was already crying like a fat man weighing two hundred pounds.

"Little Coconut, take the person down for questioning."

Qi Baoer gave Little Coconut a look, and Little Coconut accepted it immediately, went over to take Li Simu from the guard, and carried him away directly.

After shooing away the guards, Qi Baoer turned around and went to Kangshouyuan.

Old man Qi and old lady Tian had just finished their breakfast and were walking in the garden behind the small courtyard. They prayed that the housekeeper would come. The backyard of Kangshouyuan was not planted with flowers and grass like other gardens with small gardens.

It's just that the land was reclaimed and put there.

At this moment, Old Man Qi and Old Mrs. Tian were discussing what vegetables to plant in the garden.

Mrs. Tian pointed to a corner of the garden and said, "Plant a few grapes there. When they grow, we will tie them up, and then we will build a grape trellis on them. When they grow well, we can enjoy the shade below."

Old man Qi agreed: "Okay, we didn't bring the grape seedlings. Once they are settled, we can send someone back to get them."

They also grow grapes in the backyard of Qijia Village, and there is an entire grape grove on the mountain that belongs to the village.

Mrs. Tian punched Old Man Qi angrily, "It's not like there's no place to buy in Beijing. You have to go back to pick up a grape seedling. Do you have nothing to do?"

The old man Qi said, "Don't I think the grapes in our village are sweeter than those outside?"

Mrs. Tian gave him a blank look and refused to listen. Then she pointed at the cultivated fields and said, "This row of cabbage plants is very durable. I heard that it becomes difficult to eat vegetables in Beijing in the winter. My family

Isn't there a big cellar? Cabbage can be stored there for a long time. It is a vegetable in winter."

"Okay, how about we plant all the vegetables that are durable, just like we do in the village."

"Where are the older and more durable vegetables? You can't just grow cabbage, right?"

"That's alright. Aren't we worried about running out of food in the winter? We can buy everything outside on weekdays anyway."

Mrs. Tian raised her fist and hit Mr. Qi a few more times.

At this time, Qi Bao'er walked in. Old Qi immediately asked for support, "Hey, dear, are you right?"

Faced with the two glances of "You will be angry with me if you don't tell me", Master Qi Duanshui Bao'er came online and said, "Master, I can grow anything. There are many yards in our house, and many of them are vacant.

Nai can grow Nai's favorite vegetables here. I want to grow Chinese cabbage, and let the housekeeper plant the whole yard."

Old man Qi: "..."

Mrs. Tian: "..."

Is this what they mean?

But that’s not important. What’s important is... "Good boy/Bao'er, the emperor didn't make things difficult for you when you entered the palace today, right?"

Qi Baoer smiled and shook his head, "No, the emperor even allowed me to have breakfast together, rewarded me with a bunch of things, and even asked me to serve in the Ministry of War."

"What?"

The couple looked at each other, both feeling that they had just heard a hallucination.

Why do they seem to have heard that the emperor wants their Guaiguai/Baoer to serve as an official in the Ministry of War?

Qi Baoer stepped forward and took one of the couple's arms, one on the left and the other on the right, and helped them walk out, "A minister in the Ministry of War died unexpectedly while leaving the capital for business last month, so the minister's position became vacant.

I heard what the emperor said, and now there are several groups of people eyeing this position. The left prime minister introduced his nephew, the right prime minister recommended his disciples, and this uncle and that uncle also recommended a bunch of people.

The emperor is in a dilemma, why don't I come to your door myself."

The timing of her return was so wrong.

The Ministry of War is the most important one.

Whoever holds a position with the right to speak in the Ministry of War will have the right to manage and control all the armies of the entire Qilin Kingdom.

Among the five ministries, the people in charge of the three ministries, the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Household Affairs, no matter which one is not in the hands of the emperor, the emperor may not be able to sleep well at night.

Our old emperor did not serve as emperor for nothing for decades. Starting from twenty or thirty years ago, these three movies were all his people, at least on the surface.

And now, the post of Minister of War has finally been vacated, and everyone is staring at them like black-eyed chickens?!

The people in power are the emperor's people, but it is impossible for the emperor to make the entire department full of his people. Just like the nephew of the left prime minister, who himself is appointed as the head of the Ministry of War, the disciple of the right prime minister is also the head of the war department.

If you don't comply, you should recommend someone. If you recommend someone internally, you don't want to avoid relatives.

This is where the emperor's dilemma lies.

"Several of them are chiefs, and the lower ones are either two chiefs on the staff side or two chiefs on the driving department and the chief of the treasury department.

They all have meritorious service, and with the recommendation, it is a matter of course for them to be promoted to the rank of Minister.

If the emperor wants to insert one of his own people out of thin air, in terms of merit alone, no one may be able to surpass those people, and in terms of obedience, it cannot be justified."

Mrs. Tian was confused when she heard this, but Old Man Qi understood clearly, "I understand, dear, as long as you rely on the battle at Pingyuan Pass, the people in the Ministry of War will not be able to compare with you no matter how great their achievements are."

So the emperor asked Guaguai to parachute in. No matter what they thought in their hearts, they couldn't say that Guaguai was unworthy.ъiqugetvt

As for the emperor, he no longer had the stigma of nepotism and put his own people in an important position.

Damn it, Your Majesty, this is such a thief.

He got all the benefits, but his obedience became the focus of everyone's attention.

"Good boy, we won't do it."

We don't want to be taken advantage of, so whoever likes to be the Minister of War can be treated as such.

However, when he looked at the token on his granddaughter's pink palm, with the big words "Ministry of War" on it, he almost blinded old man Qi.

"You..., what are you???"

Also, he was just talking nonsense, right?!

"Master, it's really hard for me to push this. I've been running for nine years. If I push you now, what do you think the emperor would think?"

The emperor asked her to serve as a minister in the Ministry of War. Did he believe her?

No, the emperor was testing her and testing her.
