Empress Dowager Guide

Chapter 119 Breaking Free
Yuan Che nodded, and Sheng Shaoqing continued, "There is a sentence in that book, a king is a boat; a commoner is water. Water carries a boat, and water capsizes it. Do you remember it?"

Yuan Che muttered, "I remember..."

"It is true that you are the son of heaven, but one layer of the son of heaven means the son of heaven, and the other layer is the son of heaven for the people of the world. It is supported by all the people of the world. You can enjoy everything today, but the people of Xiayi now If you can't live in a house like this, why do you have any reason to pick and choose?"

"Okay," Yuan Che had no choice but to endure the discomfort in his heart, and followed Aning to his residence.

"Lianqiao, go and invite Prime Minister Ji and Lord Xia to come here together, I will discuss matters with them."

Lian Qiao went away in response, and Sheng Shaoqing asked the system, "Tell me, is that Xia Yuhuai's analysis right or wrong?"

[If it is wrong, I will remind you just now. 】

Sheng Shaoqing nodded, "That's right."

"However, you said that my boss, he is living a good life now, and he has saved his life, so why does he have to make so many moths?"

[Not everyone is the same as you, want to eat and sleep, sleep and eat. 】

Sheng Shaoqing said angrily: Why are you mocking me again? !I also have pursuits, okay?

System: I really didn't see it.

[Your boss, since he discovered that he has time-traveled, he has planned a lot of paths for himself based on his identity and the background of the current era, but most of these plans cannot be carried out due to his identity, so That's why he just screwed it up. 】

Bad? ?Is this still bad? ? ?
[Yes], the system said helplessly, [He found that he couldn't join the existing civil servant system, and he had to rely on his parents to achieve financial freedom, but he was unwilling to do so, so he simply...]

[He went back to his old job again. 】

Sheng Shaoqing:? ? ? ?
"Why didn't I know his old career was this?"

When Sheng Shaoqing went to the company for an internship, the boss washed himself up and started giving lectures on successful people outside!

Every day, he would show up from the elevator on time with a cup of Pure Enjoy Starbucks and a notebook. He spoke broken English, or mixed Chinese and English that people couldn’t understand. Every time, she wanted to say, Boss, don’t you If you know how to speak, don't let it go, and you have to show off your shallow vocabulary.

It would be understandable if he used some professional English terms to replace complicated Chinese translations, but it was just some: qing, please help me over tomorrow's meeting, thank you~~~~
[There are too many things you don't know. 】

[The reason why he can become your boss is because of three words. 】

"Which three words?"

[PPT. 】

Sheng Shaoqing:? ? ? ?
The system added, [PPT, lie to him. 】

Sheng Shaoqing: ………………

"It's a pity, he's going to fall into my hands." Sheng Shaoqing said with a sinister smile, "System, this is the most human-like thing you've done since I met you."

[I'm not a human being, and I don't need to look like a human being. 】

"Okay, okay, okay", Sheng Shaoqing didn't care what the system said, she just agreed. She only cares about one thing now, and that is: where is her dead boss.

Sheng Shaoqing continued, "Then where is he now, I'll have someone arrest him right now."

【He is in Fengchun, and now he has surpassed Li Lingfeng as the chairman of Tiancai Club and has become the actual controller of Fengchun. 】

Sheng Shaoqing said "tsk tsk", "This Li Lingfeng can't do it, his brother dared to steal from the palace, but he was being played around by a little president, really!"

"Hey, by the way, what's his name now?"

Knowing that he was in this different world with her for so long, she still didn't remember to ask his name.

The system slowly said, [Li—Da——Bao. 】

Sheng Shaoqing was taken aback after hearing this, why is this name so familiar?

【Hey, don't you know, this is his former name? 】

Sheng Shaoqing:! ! ! ! ! !
She only knows the English name of the boss, and the boss has always shown people by his English name. I heard that someone accidentally called the boss's Chinese name, and was fired the next day because he stepped into the company door with his left foot. Since then, the boss His Chinese name has become a tacit taboo in the company. Whoever dares to mention it will just wait for the resignation report.

However, the name Li Dabao is not very earthy, why can't he accept it so much?
[Everyone will have a process that is hard to talk about and unwilling to recall, it's normal. 】

"Then... is there anything you don't want to remember?"

System: Of course it's the host in the previous paragraph! ! ! !

Because of him, not to mention so many mistakes, it has to work overtime to finish. As an intelligent system, although it doesn't feel tired, it will be very annoying, okay? ! !
【No. 】

"Alright alright."

Sheng Shaoqing understands the stubborn complex of the system, after all, it is also an "intelligent" system, so it's necessary to save face, right?
"Queen! Prime Minister Ji and Lord Xia have arrived."

The chat between Sheng Shaoqing and the system didn't last long, when Lianqiao's voice resounded, and after a rustling sound outside the door, Sheng Shaoqing said leisurely:
"Please come in."

Ji Wenxuan and Xia Yuhuai looked at each other, and they both had a preliminary impression and judgment of each other. Xia Yuhuai took the lead and said, "Prime Minister Ji, please go ahead."

Ji Wenxuan did not shirk, nodded and entered the door, Xia Yuhuai followed closely behind and walked in.

"I will pay my respects to the Empress Dowager!"

"Get up." Sheng Shaoqing saw Ji Wenxuan's eyes were black and blue, and cared about his body first, "Prime Minister Ji, the journey has been tiring, did you not rest well?"

Ji Wenxuan bowed and said hoarsely, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your concern. I had a cold when I left Beijing. These days, I have been taking the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor to recuperate. Now I am much better."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Sheng Shaoqing paused and said, "I invite you to come here this time because I have something to discuss with you."

Ji Wenxuan lowered his hands and listened to Sheng Shaoqing's words, accompanied by a few deep coughs from time to time. Seeing that he was trying to suppress himself, Sheng Shaoqing still worried, "Which imperial physician took your pulse, do you want another one to take it for you?" look?"

"It's been a few days since I left Beijing, why don't you see me?"

Ji Wenxuan waved his hand to show that he was fine, "Chen... this is an old problem, the queen mother... cough cough cough... the queen mother does not need to worry, it is still important to do business."

Sheng Shaoqing had no choice but to continue talking about the Tiancaihui, "Let's talk about the specific details, Xia Xiancheng."

Just as Xia Yuhuai was about to speak, Ji Wenxuan raised his hand to stop Xia Yuhuai and said, "I already know about this matter, and Xia Xiancheng doesn't need to go into details. However, I want to ask the Empress Dowager what she means."

Sheng Shaoqing:?

"What do I mean?"

Ji Wenxuan nodded and said, "The misfortune of Tiancai has not been around for a long time. It is not difficult to uproot the Tiancai Society, but... how should Li Lingjiang and Li Lingfeng deal with it?"

What crime should officials who have been brainwashed by evil organizations be?

"My minister has the guts to ask the Queen Mother, what will happen to the group of people that Yun Shangshu sent to Dali Temple before?"

Regardless of Ji Wenxuan's sickly cough just now, once he asked such a sharp question, he was still very imposing, and his eyes revealed a burning brilliance.

"Before...you knew everything about them?"

Ji Wenxuan smiled and said, "There has always been a saying among the people that fire cannot be contained in paper, and Dali Temple has a lot of young masters who are in prison, and the Queen Mother chose someone for her majesty's companion, although the ministers are not big Talented, but not stupid, the Queen Mother's actions are not difficult to guess."

Sheng Shaoqing counted the days, although Ji Wenxuan was entangled in daily affairs, but he would still check the work of Dali Temple every now and then.

Xia Yuhuai looked at the Empress Dowager and then at Prime Minister Ji, watching the conversation between the two of them as if they were playing charades, but he was able to guess the news:

The Li brothers are going to be finished.

"I didn't discuss it with Prime Minister Ji before, but it was because I thought it was an internal affairs of the palace, and it was also caused by my poor management. But now that the situation is like this, these things have to be brought up on the table."

Ji Wenxuan smiled slightly and said, "I'm afraid the queen mother has other plans, but I have no intention of prying into the queen mother's intentions, but there is one thing, Li's heart is really hard to underestimate, and it is better for the queen mother to deal with it as soon as possible."

Sheng Shaoqing nodded crazily in her heart, Mr. Ji had already spoken, how could she disagree? !
"only………"

When Sheng Shaoqing heard about Ji Wenxuan's turning point, he didn't feel well. This language habit of always putting important things behind is really bad!
"Some cancers, the reason why they become cancers, sometimes the root cause may not be in themselves."

Ji Wenxuan's words were quite meaningful, but Sheng Shaoqing couldn't agree more.

It's like she is bad, sometimes she really doesn't want to be bad, and the situation forces her to do it!
[Really? 】

Sheng Shaoqing: "Of course! Although it is true sometimes... I am used to it, and I didn't struggle, but!!"

"I want to emphasize one point: when I'm bad, I'm really bad, but! When I'm trying to be strong, I really want to be angry!"

[So, do you really want to change the system? 】

"Hey, how did you know I was going to say this?"

Sheng Shaoqing's desertion was soon discovered by Ji Wenxuan, and Ji Wenxuan coughed a few times, "The Queen Mother..."

"What Prime Minister Ji said is true." Sheng Shaoqing agreed with a serious expression.

Ji Wenxuan: That's it?

Sheng Shaoqing: Isn't that so?
"Then..." Ji Wenxuan gritted his teeth. The queen mother didn't take the bait, so he took another step back and said directly, "Queen mother, if these people are allowed to harm the court, it's better to draw the bottom of the pot and kill them in their infancy... ..."

The more Sheng Shaoqing listened to Ji Wenxuan's words, the more strange he became. He seemed to want to use Li Lingjiang's matter... to say something?

Xia Yuhuai, who was at the side, heard it clearly and clearly, and the more he listened, the more excited he became. He let out a burst of joy and coughed violently.

Ji Wenxuan: ……… Why is Master Xia so excited when he talks to the Queen Mother?
Sheng Shaoqing: ......... Didn't mention you, why are you so excited?
"Master Xia, you...?"

Seeing that he had attracted the attention of the two bosses, Xia Yuhuai hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Minister! I'm fine! You...you continue...continue, and you will no longer exist as a minister!"

Ji Wenxuan continued, "How could it be that Master Xia doesn't exist? Master Xia is the key person."

Xia Yuhuai pointed at himself with his index finger, his eyes widened, and the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes stretched out, "I???——No! My minister????"

Xia Yuhuai's guts were turning green with regret, and she hated herself for being so impatient.

Ji Wenxuan nodded, "It's you, Master Xia."

Sheng Shaoqing also had no choice but to nod along and said, "It's you, Mr. Xia..."

"I heard that Mr. Xia came from a poor family. You started as a small official in the county government. After several twists and turns, you became the county magistrate in Xiayi. Only then did you settle down, right?"

Xia Yuhuai nodded, and said embarrassedly, "Chen... Your experience...it's not worth mentioning at all, it's not worth mentioning."

"No! That's worth mentioning!"

"Ah—" Xia Yuhuai shrank, "It's worth mentioning...it's worth mentioning..."

Ji Wenxuan patted Xia Yuhuai's shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid, Hanmei will only see the fragrance if you stick to it. Now is your good time, Master Xia!"

Sheng Shaoqing secretly slandered, "Plum blossoms have a delicate fragrance because they are plum blossoms, okay?"

However, in order not to refute Ji Wenxuan's face, Sheng Shaoqing chose to remain silent, and just quietly played the role of a vase, watching Ji Wenxuan export to Xia Yuhuai.

"Good...good time?"

He has only heard of the good times of the bride, but he hasn't heard of his good times yet?

Ji Wenxuan turned to Sheng Shaoqing and said, "Recently, I was worried that I couldn't find a suitable candidate, but I didn't expect to meet someone with Mr. Xia's background when I came to Xia Yi. This really proves the old saying is true."

"there's always a solution to any problem."

Sheng Shaoqing saw Ji Wenxuan boasting Xia Yuhuai so extravagantly, and was wondering what the little old man was doing, Xia Yuhuai himself was the first to panic and said, "No, no, don't, don't, Mr. Ji, Prime Minister Ji , you are really... really flattering me, my minister... how can I deserve such praise from Lord Ji?!"

It has been almost 20 years since the last one who received Prime Minister Ji's "talent" comment. Although he is a little older, he has not yet reached the stage of driving west!

Ji Wenxuan grabbed the precarious Xia Yuhuai and said, "No, you deserve it!"

Ji Wenxuan was a few years older than Xia Yuhuai, and now he was holding Xia Yuhuai to death, from Sheng Shaoqing's point of view, it was really, a little... funny.

"Prime Minister Ji, don't go around in circles, just say what you want to say."

Seeing that Xia Yuhuai was about to cough excitedly again, Sheng Shaoqing went straight in and interrupted Ji Wenxuan's tormenting Xia Yuhuai.

Xia Yuhuai gently broke free from Ji Wenxuan's shackles, and panted quietly. Fortunately, the Queen Mother rescued him in time, otherwise... how did Prime Minister Ji behave like this all of a sudden?

Ji Wenxuan turned his head to look at Sheng Shaoqing and said, "Doesn't the Empress Dowager understand Weichen?"
