Pang Xiu quickly changed his angle. This time he saw it correctly. I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When will this old guy become normal again?
"Your Majesty, have you eaten?"
"I have had my meal."
"oh."
"Master, haven't you eaten yet?"
The boy guarding the door couldn't help but said: "Master's memory is getting worse and worse. I've even eaten the supper today, so there's no reason why I haven't eaten yet."
The Grand Master is about to turn eighty. Looking at his old face, I suddenly felt an indescribable sadness.
"Nonsense, I never eat midnight snacks."
"But you have already eaten four meals today. What is the fourth meal if it's not a midnight snack?"
Pang Xiu twitched his beard: "Hey, you bastard knows how to talk back."
The boy's shoulders shrunk and he slipped away from the Grand Master.
I looked at the young man who succeeded and asked with amusement, "Aren't you afraid that the Grand Master will come back to trouble you?"
The boy said sincerely: "It doesn't matter, the Grand Master can't remember who I am anyway."
Boy, you have a great future.
After the joking, it was time to get down to business. The Grand Master and I strolled in the small garden of his home, walking slowly forward in the warm afternoon sunshine.
"Grand Master, you should have heard about the recent affairs in the DPRK." I hit the nail on the head.
Pang Xiu carefully brushed the branches hanging over his head and said with a smile: "I did hear a lot, but no matter whether I heard more or less, the king will always make the final decision, right?"
When I met these wise and wise eyes, I was stunned. He didn't seem to be talking to me, but to Xia Yan through me.
If Xia Yan heard these words, how would he answer?
"I do have a candidate in mind, but I feel that I should listen to the Grand Master's wishes."
"Your Majesty, it doesn't matter if you say so."
I took a deep breath: "Master, what do you think of Liuchi?"
Pang Xiu hummed, and his smile widened: "Well, your Majesty has a good sense. I told Liu Chi about this in the maple forest that time."
"Oh?" I suddenly became interested.
In terms of qualifications, Liu Chi is indeed not as senior as Pang Xiu, but in other words, as long as you have the ability, qualifications can be developed slowly. Unexpectedly, Pang Xiu and I thought of going together.
"But Liuchi rejected me." Pang Xiu looked regretful.
I was very puzzled, what happened? The position of Grand Master is much higher than that of Imperial Master. Has Liuchi's brain been squeezed by the door? He doesn't want to get more than one hundred taels of gold every month?
"What's the reason for his refusal?"
"Oh, let me think about it." Pang Xiu looked at the rockery in the distance and patted his head: "Oh, that's what he said, Master Pang, do you hope that there will be a Master Liu who will never die in the court?
?”
I stood there in shock, unable to say a word.
I actually forgot about this kind of thing. Liu Chi is immortal. If he is really allowed to take the position of Grand Master, everyone's eyes will be on him. He can hide it in ten or twenty years, and he can hide it in thirty years.
What about forty years? Maybe even longer.
If Hu Min, the censor, was still alive at that time, he would probably have impeached Liu Chi like this - if he is too old to die, he is a thief. Liu Chi simply violates the principles of heaven and begs the king to give him death!
"Well, Liu Chi is indeed unable to take the position of Grand Master due to status issues. So, Grand Master, who else do you think is qualified for the position?"
