Chapter 391

With all the hearts of the people, the empress didn't want to listen to the defense notes of the unlucky prefect, and went down with an imperial decree, dismissed from office, and closed her doors to contemplate her mistakes.
However, Nanjun is a tax-heavy place for Dayong, so the position of Nanjun prefect cannot be vacant. The empress casually asked who could take up the important task, and immediately extinguished all the fires in the palace.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one dared to speak out.
Of course, it's not that there are no candidates, but that most of them have their own accounts in their hearts. At this time, it happened so suddenly, who would dare to speak first before finding out what the queen wanted?
Whether it is to leave an important and personal impression on the queen, or to push a political opponent to power, it is very depressing.
"Why, I have a lot of talents in Dayong, do you have to go back and think carefully about choosing a prefect?" The queen on the phoenix chair raised her eyebrows and said coldly.
After hearing this, everyone even swallowed the names on their lips.
The trees are beautiful in the forest, but the wind will destroy them, so it is better to wait and see the changes first.
"Hanxiao, you are a concubine, tell me your opinion." The empress called her name directly.
Su Hanxiao could feel Mu Wang's schadenfreude eyes without turning his head, and wanted her to test the Queen's mind first?It's a pity, this time she really intends to be impartial.
Although she had discussed it with Bailiqing a long time ago, she still pretended to be thinking and paused for a while before she came out and said: "Mother, Nanjun's tax revenue accounts for a large part of Dayong's total tax revenue. It's very important, and we definitely can't entrust people who don't know the details at will, so I think it's more appropriate to send someone from the capital."
"Oh?" A look of surprise flashed across the Queen's face, "Since you said that, you must have someone to choose?"
"My son recommends Yushi Lian Yuchang." Su Han smiled and said with a smile, "everyone who has been judged by the Yushitai has a proud character, does not follow the power, does not covet the inferiors, and even the imperial censor once served as the prefect of Ning County. He must also be proficient in taxation, I wonder what the empress thinks?"
The queen was stunned, as if she didn't expect that she would propose such a candidate, and she couldn't help thinking.
There was a buzz of discussion in the silent Fengxiang Palace, indeed, no one thought that the princess would pull out the Yushitai Jian, this Yushitai is an institution directly under the empress, and usually no one will buy it , even if the empress dowager is the recommender, I am afraid that even Yuchang will not deviate from his political standpoint after he takes office.
After a long time, the empress said: "Mei Zhongcheng, what do you think, can Lian Yuchang be competent?"
The well-known Yushi Zhongcheng Mei Ruying came out, with a straight expressionless face, and said quite well: "Lian Yuchang is capable enough to be the prefect of Nanjun, but he has an upright personality and is not good at dealing with people's sophistication. Something happened."
"That's fine." The queen heard the words, but Fengyan said joyfully, "I asked her to be the prefect, not to make friends with local officials, so I can rest assured if she is upright."
"I have no objection." Mei Ruying bowed her head and said something, and retreated to the queue, but sighed softly.
How can she not know what kind of temperament her subordinates have, I'm afraid Nanjun won't be so calm.But that place...someone really needs to tap and tap, even if something happens to Lian Yu, it's just to make the Queen alert and deal with it as soon as possible.As for Lian Yuchang... she is a straight minister, but the straight minister can't act so recklessly. After all, she lacks experience. Letting her go to Nanjun to practice and encounter a few setbacks will be beneficial to her future.
It's His Majesty the Empress... She couldn't help but look up at Su Hanxiao who was smiling in the hall, as if she had a plan in mind, couldn't help shaking her head, and smiled wryly at herself.
This Highness, I don't know when, it has become more and more incomprehensible.But talking and laughing like that, the body with thousands of hills and valleys in the chest, but more and more the shadow of another person.
Han Xiang, although this is not your own birth, it is the daughter you taught after all...
When Su Hanxiao was talking to Mei Ruying, she couldn't help but look at her more.
Although the heads of the generation of the Mei family have no blood relationship, the Mei family has always acted as the cover of the Xuanming Palace outside, and they have been closely related for many years.But the chief of Yushitai never took the initiative to say anything in the morning court except when he wanted to participate. Even if the empress asked by name, he would ask and answer what he asked, never saying a word.
As the link between Xuanming Palace and the Dayong Imperial Family, the Mei family must bear a lot of pressure. It is no wonder that Mei Ruying is cautious in her words and deeds everywhere. Even the Mei family's children have never held a real position of power.
"Then..." The queen just said two words, suddenly, a small attendant ran over from the apse, and even rushed up the jade steps.
"Bold slave, how dare you trespass on the Fengxiang Palace? You haven't taken it yet!" The queen said angrily.
"Yes!" The two guards went up immediately.
"Your Majesty, something serious is not right!" The little attendant looked anxious, but seemed to know the seriousness, and dared not shout loudly, rushed to the empress, and said a few words hastily.
Originally, the two guards also recognized him as someone from Bixiao Palace, and they didn't try to grab him, but he broke free, and when they were about to turn around, they were met by the empress' aura.
"Retire!" the queen yelled loudly, ignoring the courtiers below, and strode towards the apse.
Ling Xuan, who was standing behind the phoenix chair, also heard the little attendant's words clearly, a worried look flashed across his face, but he quickly calmed down, stepped forward, and said loudly: "Your Majesty has something to do in the harem, everyone don't need to be suspicious. , if there is something to be reported, the memorial can be handed directly to the imperial study, and the court will be dismissed!"
Hearing such an explanation, although all the ministers were dubious, they dispersed in twos and threes.
King Ning and King Mu glanced at each other, but stayed.
