Prosperous advisors

Chapter 848: The Way of the Emperor (1)
"Come here, send Mu Xiang back to Prince Lie's residence to rest." Ge Shujun said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Mu Xiang please."

"Thank you."

Only Ge Shujun and Xiao Ting were left in the hall. Ge Shujun sized up Xiao Ting for a long time before smiling: "Xiao Ting, you have worked hard these past few years. Especially this time, you have done a good job."

Xiao Ting got up and said respectfully: "Your Majesty has won the prize. I have not gained much in Hua Guo for several years, and this time I have lost all the spies in Hua Guo, and the treasures of Hua Guo have not been successfully found. If it were not for His Majesty who left behind I'm afraid I won't get anything this time, so I beg your majesty to come down." That's right, the same fate Gu he planted on Mu Qingyi this time was exactly what Ge Shujun left behind when he left Jian'an City. It is also the trump card that the royal family of the Northern Han Dynasty has always treasured.So far, once used, there is no more.If Ge Shujun hadn't seen Mu Qingyi's absolute influence over Rong Jin, I'm afraid he would still be reluctant to use such a precious thing on Mu Qingyi.

Ge Shujun waved his hand and said, "Get up, you don't have to be too self-effacing. Mu Qingyi is extremely smart and rare in the world, and this time you can successfully bring her to Beihan, which is equivalent to ten Huaguo treasures. "

Xiao Ting frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment before saying: "Although Mu Qingyi is the Prime Minister of Xida, but... Has Your Majesty overestimated her value?" Ge Shujun laughed loudly: "Other countries The prime minister is naturally not worthy of such a high price, but...Mu Qingyi is different. She is Rong Jin's wife, who is the real queen of Xiyue. In addition, Gu Xiuting holds most of the southern border in his hands, and Mu Qingyi is different. Qingyi's relationship is also very close. As long as she is in hand, no matter what Rong Jin wants to do, he is doomed to be scrupulous."

Xiao Ting frowned and said: "After all, Rong Jin is a generation of emperors, His Majesty is really sure... Will he give up everything for Mu Qingyi?"

Ge Shujun pondered for a moment, then said lightly: "I don't need him to give up everything for Mu Qingyi, I just need Mu Qingyi to influence his layout and actions. If it is an opponent that is too easy to defeat, it is meaningless What's more... If Rong Jin really loved Mu Qingyi deeply, he would not give up everything, because he knew that once he really gave up everything, he would no longer be able to protect Mu Qingyi A woman like Mu Qingyi... If it wasn't for the fact that I really don't like women who are too smart, I'm afraid I wouldn't let them go."

He has been in the royal family since he was a child, and has seen too much darkness and intrigue.He doesn't trust anyone except himself and his younger brother Ge Shuhan.Naturally, he would never put such a smart woman by his side. Throughout the history, he understood the dangers of a beauty.Therefore, in his harem, he would rather have those beautiful but stupid and naive women than those really smart and resourceful women.The way of the emperor is the way of loneliness, and he doesn't need someone to go along with him.

"Wei Chen understands." Xiao Ting nodded silently.

Ge Shujun smiled with satisfaction: "Very well, as long as you hold the same life Gu in your hands, you don't have to worry about other things. As for Mu Qingyi, she doesn't have to be too restrictive in her actions in the imperial city, as long as she doesn't have to Don't care about her. Speaking of it... I still hope that she can truly submit to the Northern Han Dynasty. Everything in the Northern Han Dynasty is good, but... there is indeed a lack of a courtier like Mu Qingyi who is as talented in economics as Mu Qingyi. It's a pity... ..." People who originally possessed these talents were abandoned, but a person like him who was eager for talents could not be found.This world is really strange.

Xiao Ting's expression was dimmed, and he nodded, "I take orders." Looking at Xiao Ting's respectful appearance, Ge Shujun seemed to remember something, and said with a smile: "You have worked hard these past few years, first go to the palace to see Look at your sister, rest for two more days and then... just go to the household department. It just so happens that there is a vacancy for the servant of the household department recently, what do you think?"

Minister of the household department, the official title of the third rank.With Xiao Ting's age under 20, no matter where he is considered young, he is too young.But compared to Mu Qingyi who became prime minister, Zhao Ziyu who became a general at the age of [-], and Xiyue who held the real power almost all were young people, Xiao Ting seemed a bit unattractive.He went to Huaguo as a spy when he was a teenager, and this time he had confronted Mu Qingyi several times overtly and secretly, and almost risked his life.Such a return made him feel a little disappointed.

Although he was a little disappointed in his heart, Xiao Ting didn't dare to show the slightest bit on his face, and quickly thanked him respectfully: "My minister, thank you Your Majesty."

Ge Shujun smiled and waved: "Go, go and see your sister first. She has also worried a lot about you in recent years."

"Yes, my minister will leave." Xiao Ting bowed respectfully before exiting the hall.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid such an arrangement will disappoint Master Xiao." A middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance came out from the back of the hall and said with a smile.Ge Shujun raised his eyebrows and said, "Disappointed?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Master Xiao seems to have great ambitions, and he has indeed worked hard all these years. He is just a servant, so I'm afraid he is a bit inferior?" Yun Fusheng didn't do anything, but helped to arrest Mu Qingyi When he came out, he got a Marquis. Xiao Ting, who has worked hard for several years, has a queen as a backer and is only a third-rank official. How can people feel convinced?
Ge Shujun smiled lightly and said: "Although Mr. is very talented, he may not be proficient in the way of imperial servants. If the people below want anything, I will give it. I am afraid that I don't have so many things to reward. The Xiao family With the empress and princes around, those titles and powers can be suppressed first." He doesn't like to spend too much energy on balancing the harem and the powerful, the queen's position in the palace cannot be shaken, and the queen's legitimate son As long as he is not talented and dull, no one can shake his position.Then, the power of the descendants should not be too much, so as not to make people express some ideas that they shouldn't have.

"What's more, Xiao Ting is still young, the queen is sensible, so she will naturally persuade him." Ge Shujun laughed.Since he did this, he naturally already had plans.

The middle-aged man shook his head and stopped discussing this topic. He changed the subject and said with a smile: "That Mu Xiang is really not comparable to ordinary women in the world." The dialogue between Shu Jun can also settle one or two.No matter how good-tempered a woman is, she will inevitably feel a little dissatisfied in the face of such a situation.If it was an ordinary woman, I'm afraid she would have scolded or looked at her coldly.But Mu Qingyi was still talking and laughing at Yanyan, as if she wasn't captured but was actually half of the guests.

"It's really extraordinary. It's really lucky to catch him this time." Ge Shujun smiled complacently, "If it weren't for Yun Fusheng, I really wouldn't dare to gamble on it. Sir, I think that if you talk about it, What is the chance of Mu Qingyi submitting?"

The middle-aged man pondered for a moment, but he was not polite. He shook his head and said, "Not in half."
