The male lead is crazy [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 79 Someone Always Thinks I'm Teasing Him

"That is to say, Mr. Zhao, you prefer to let these two fill the vacancy of Mr. Liao and Mr. Tao?" Wu Zhou asked, rubbing his chin.

"Wei Chen has this wish, but... I'm afraid it will be difficult." The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs are full of vacancies. Cui Xiang lost two of his confidants this time, so he will definitely not suffer this loss, and will find a way to push the other two confidants away. go up.

"Then you have a solution?" Finally mentioned the point, Wu Zhou relaxed a lot.

Zhao Baiyan didn't understand why the emperor suddenly became interested in the affairs of the court, so he made up his mind: "Tomorrow in the court, the minister will fight hard according to reason, but I'm afraid I can only win one position." But for now, Already considered good.

At least this position can be regarded as a breakthrough, and it can also be regarded as a wake-up call for Cui Xiang, so that he can take a breather and carefully consider how to make the position of the emperor more stable, and how to go further on this road of imperial power .

Wu Zhou sat up straight, obviously disapproving of getting only one position: "It's hard to get it down, and naturally I have to get both. I have a way here, although it's a bit less popular, but it's still a way, Mr. Zhao listen Listen?"

"Although the emperor speaks bluntly, the ministers are all ears."

"Since only these four are outstanding among the ten people, these two are Cui Xiang's people, and they must not be allowed to take up the position again. Otherwise, wouldn't it be useless to take these two positions? Since they are evenly matched, Cui Xiang will go to court tomorrow He must be highly recommended by the court, but what if...these two people suddenly appear stained?" Wu Zhou stepped forward step by step.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Cui's affairs are impeccable, and it's not easy to find any flaws in a short period of time." It's not that Zhao Baiyan didn't think about it, but he couldn't find out more.

"Who said it must be found, can't it be manufactured?" Wu Zhou simply finished, "What happened today happened to be a breakthrough point. The assassination of Mr. Zhao will be tried by me. As long as it is used well, the two Vacancy is not a problem."

Zhao Baiyan was startled when he heard the words, and quickly understood the deep meaning of Wu Zhou's words: "Your majesty, you want to frame them to assassinate the humble official? This is absolutely impossible. How can you be convincing if there is no evidence? What's more, the humble official will not do such a thing. Something." He frowned, but he didn't expect the emperor to think of such a solution.

Wu Zhou has already touched Zhao Baiyan's temperament, and he also knows that the other party's eyes cannot tolerate sand, and he also thought that the other party would refuse in advance, so he was not in a hurry: "I didn't say framed, just spread some dispensable news, but Even if it is just a rumor, at this juncture, there is an excuse to refute Cui Xiang. What's more, if King Chai kills you, will Cui Xiang know? They all want your life, so what if we do something? Besides, When the matter of official positions is settled, I will fully explain that it has nothing to do with them. In this way, they have nothing to lose, but it can also prevent Cui Xiang from filling in. Mr. Zhao, this is called soldiers who are not tired of cheating, and it is not a dirty thing. Occasionally you You must also know how to be flexible." What's more, those people are shameless, and you still play with them honestly, can you handle it?

Zhao Baiyan pursed his lips tightly, looking at the young man's clear eyes, his figure was clearly reflected in it because of the candlelight, serious, serious, and upright, but at this moment because of the young man's eyes, there was a smile that was not a smile, this kind of The image, with the flickering of the candle, his figure seemed to be a flash in the pan, and was scattered, and it became a little blurred. After a while, he didn't say anything to refute.

Wu Zhou knew that he was thinking about it, so he softened his voice patiently: "I know this road is not easy to walk, Mr. Zhao, do you really think that my father chose me to be the emperor at the beginning, just because I am not close to women's style?" Innocent? Or just because I'm inconspicuous?

No, it's because the father is very clear that Xiang Cui and King Chai hold too much power in the court, especially that King Chai's concubine is from the Cui family.

If King Chai became the emperor, and his relatives monopolized the power, King Chai was immoral and immoral, and his fatuous women were treacherous, then you people... those who can really do things for the people and don't filth, there is absolutely no possibility of surviving.He was looking for a way to break this situation, but he was old and unable to break it, so he took a fancy to your means and loyalty, and chose a prince like me who has no background but is still easy to control.

He wants to use your hands to clear this court, even if he fails in the end, the result is nothing more than King Chai is still in power, but this is no different from the beginning...That being the case, why not give it a try?Mr. Zhao, my father believes in you. If you stick to this, you will be swallowed up by King Chai sooner or later.At that time, we will all be fish and meat, at the mercy of others.This... is what you want to see? "

Zhao Baiyan fell silent completely, looking at the persuasive young man in front of him, and when he looked over again, the young man's eyes became clear again, as if he was the only one in the other party's eyes, he actually wanted to tell the young man that the late emperor was still wrong The thing is that the prince in front of him who can be controlled is not sure, but he is hiding something deep, but he is hiding his clumsiness.

But this made his difficult road suddenly a lot easier.

But since the other party doesn't want to be exposed, then he will be the loyal minister who opened up the territory for the monarch, even if he does his best, he is willing.

Wu Zhou didn't know what he was thinking at the moment, so after he finished speaking, he gave Zhao Boyan time to think, otherwise the string was too tight and would break easily, and it would be easier to get the result he wanted if it was relaxed properly.

Sure enough, after a stick of incense, he looked at the dignified man in front of him, suddenly knelt down on one knee, lowered his eyes, and said in a solemn voice that had never been heard before, "I understand, I understand."

Wu Zhou was stunned for a moment, for some reason, he always felt that the understanding in the man's mouth was not the same as what he said, so he asked cautiously: "You really...understand?"

The man raised his eyes at this moment, and there seemed to be light shining in the bottom of his eyes: "Yes."

Because Zhao Baiyan had to make arrangements in advance, he didn't stay in the palace that night. Wu Zhou didn't go to bed until the system predicted it, so he sat in the imperial study, feeling quite bored.He simply searched for the memorial that Zhao Baiyan had corrected in the past two months, and asked Eunuch Liu to hold the lamp beside him, and read it carefully. Zhou stretched himself, but did not hear the system's warning.

That is to say, there will be no accidents on this day. Wu Zhou put down some of the memorials he had read, and told Eunuch Liu before leaving: "Put it away, and leave the rest alone, and I will read it when I have time." Go away. After a few steps, he stopped again, "Don't let Mr. Zhao know about this matter, understand?"

Eunuch Liu promised to come down, seeing the figure of the emperor leaving, he was very relieved: the emperor has grown up, and he knows how to be considerate of Mr. Zhao.

In his eyes, Wu Zhou was slowly changing after seeing these things, secretly practicing the court affairs, and then planned to surprise Mr. Zhao.

On the next day at the court, the officials began to fight for the two vacant positions, and finally decided that the two selected by the four were basically divided into three factions. The faction headed by Zhao Baiyan, but most of them were Those who are younger have more avant-garde ideas, but since they are young and have short qualifications, their positions are not too high; the other faction is naturally headed by Cui Xiang, but Cui Xiang is silent, but they are also arguing endlessly.

The third faction is silence. No matter how much you argue, you just keep silent and just watch the show.

The other two factions argued for a long time, and finally Cui Xiangna's faction let go, and was won by Zhao Baiyan's side as a minister of the Ministry of Industry... At the critical moment when the Household Minister was about to be occupied by Cui Xiangna's people, Suddenly, Eunuch Liu trotted over, and when he arrived in front of the new emperor who had been silent as if it had nothing to do with him, he handed it over. Suddenly, the new emperor was furious: "You bastard!"

The thing was just thrown in the middle of the Baiguan, and scattered, the Baiguan glanced at it casually, and found that some right and wrong news spread in the market at some time, saying that a certain lord had a quarrel with Zhao lord before, and was afraid of this assassination Could it be that the other party did it?The things in the market are just heard on weekdays, but the problem is that they have all reached the ears of the emperor, and it is still at this juncture...

Cui Xiang didn't understand, but it happened so suddenly, at this moment, even if he wanted to stop it, it was too late.

However, the adult who was mentioned had his name and surname mentioned in the notebook. Naturally, he was the protagonist who was being debated by the two factions in the court at the moment. At this time, it is not appropriate to propose that the other party be promoted.

Cui Xiang's faction secretly glanced at Cui Xiang, but he didn't show it on the other side, but he was full of turmoil in his heart, but he knew very well that he might be stung this time.If he continues, if he is accused of protecting his subordinates, how will he gain a foothold as a prime minister?He didn't expect that Zhao Baiyan, the chief minister of the cabinet who was famous for his integrity, would dare to do evil!

It was because he underestimated the other party that he ended up in this situation. He admitted that he was just a minister of the household department.

Cui Xiang took the initiative to step forward and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Since Mr. Sun has such suspicions, he is temporarily unsuitable for the position of Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. The old minister begged him to be crossed out from the list this time, and we can discuss it later."

Wu Zhou above looked at this scene, looked at this old fox, but responded directly with a smile: "Since that's the case, then I will follow Cui Xiang. I'm still familiar with Cui Xiang, and he really deserves to be a good prime minister of our Great Ji Kingdom." ah."

This high hat almost made Cui Xiangqi vomit blood, gritted his teeth secretly, and continued to smile and bow his hands in return: "The emperor's absurd praise, this old minister must never dare to be so."

An old fox and a young fox praised each other and evaded each other. Since the most likely one was removed, the other one would naturally take over.

The final decision was of course the two proposed by Zhao Baiyan, one was Tanhualang who was at the same time as him, and the other was Zhao Baiyan's best friend. Over the years, he was repeatedly suppressed because he was too upright and did not join forces with Cui Xiangxiang, but he did not change his original intention.

This result is a good thing for Zhao Baiyan, but it is a heavy blow for Cui Xiangchaiwang and others.

Wu Zhou could almost imagine how Cui Xiang would be furious after returning home, and he was in a great mood, so he personally summoned the two newly appointed adults in the imperial study.

He sat on the dragon chair and looked at the two people who were kneeling and saluting. One was Tanhua Lang back then, Mr. Qian Wenju, who was a businessman for generations in his family. Influenced by the ancestors for generations, they are very good at silver and white things. To put it bluntly, the Ministry of Finance is in charge of money, and it is also fat and vacancies. It cuts off the economic lifeline of Cui and other people. In the long run, it will shake the foundation of Cui and other people. This is why Zhao Baiyan recommended him .

The other is Lou Yang, who is Zhao Baiyan’s close friend. I heard that they came from the same place. This Lou Yang’s ancestors were carpenters, and he is also a good hand, but he can also study. Because of some incidents, he was frustrated in the examination room, so he didn't rank in the top three. The position of minister of the Ministry of Industry is also very suitable for the other party.

Of these two people, Mr. Qian is quick-spoken, but Lou Yang is dull and doesn't talk much. Standing there, he is tall and slender. Standing with Zhao Baiyan at the side, he is about the same height, but his eyebrows and eyes are not as good as Zhao Baiyan, but he still has good looks Tangtang, at first glance, is a particularly upright and reliable person.

Wu Zhou couldn't help but look a few more times, this scene fell into Zhao Baiyan's eyes, couldn't help frowning, but didn't say much.

Seeing Wu Zhou arguing with Qian Wenju, both of them were able to talk, they hit it off right away, and it took more than half an hour to talk, while the other two just frowned, not having time to interject, especially When Xindi occasionally suggested a good idea to Qian Wen, the other party was so excited that he almost rushed over and hugged Xindi's thigh and howled, confidant.

Wu Zhou also thinks that Mr. Qian is very fun. Although he has passed his thirties, he still looks like a half-baby. After dinner, if in the past, Qian Wenju didn't dare at all, he naturally met the new emperor, but every time he saw each other before, the new emperor would have a sullen face and a gloomy face. As a courtier, he naturally didn't dare to initiate a conversation .

I didn't expect Xindi to be so tempered. As soon as Xindi left a meal, he nodded in agreement.

Zhao Baiyan frowned and walked behind Mr. Lou. Mr. Lou glanced at his friends who were calm and a little cold around him, and looked at the two people in front of him who were talking in high spirits, and said with deep meaning: "You Doesn't seem happy."

Zhao Baiyan shook his head: "You and Brother Qian have been able to advance three levels in a row, the emperor has contributed a lot, and he can help me a lot."

Master Lou smiled gently, but did not point out: "Recently, your relationship with the emperor seems to have eased a lot."

Zhao Baiyan responded: "Your Majesty... is much better than we imagined." He couldn't find the word, and finally summed it up, as if to justify the other party's name, saying that good word.

It was not easy for the other party to say it. Master Lou took another look at him. For some reason, he thought of something, smiled, and didn't continue to ask.

For a meal, the four of them had their own thoughts, because Wu Zhou and Mr. Qian got along better, and they got close to each other during this meal.Zhao Baiyan and Zhao Baiyan were on the other side.As a result, two extremes were formed in one meal, one side chattered endlessly; the other side was silent as if a needle could be heard clearly.

In the end, Zhao Baiyan stayed and continued to work as a coolie correcting memorials, while the newly appointed Lord Qian and Lord Lou went out of the palace to prepare for their new duties.

Although they got the position, it is more difficult to keep this position from Cui and other people than to win this position. After the two left the palace, they rode back to the mansion first.

Qian's Mansion and Lou's Mansion are next to each other, and they are neighbors. The two waved their hands and entered their respective mansions. However, after entering the inner courtyard, Qian Wenju waved away everyone, and walked in from the inner wall of his own yard. Turning over, I ran to the opposite side, and sure enough, as soon as I jumped off the wall, I saw a person not far away who was leaning on the railing with his chest folded and looking at this side, with stern eyebrows drooping, and his thoughts were uncertain, it was Lou Yang.

Qian Wenju saw the scene of the other party, patted the dust on his hands, leaned over, and grinned: "Master Lou? What should I do? I can be your top now, will my status change from now on?" Is it? After all, you are outside, you can still call me respectfully... Hey, hey, waist! My waist is broken!"

Before Mr. Qian could finish his words, the man grabbed his waist and brought him to his chest. He lost his height and pressed him against the railing. Seeing Mr. Qian grinning, he leaned over and kissed him, lol Looking at the other party's stunned look for a moment: "Continue talking. Let me see, aren't you and the emperor quite good at talking?"

Mrs. Qian, who had been so stunned before, blushed suddenly: "You... the princess has cheated." Then he thought, "Could it be jealous? That's the emperor, and not everyone is... Sleeves..." Mr. Qian's voice was lowered for the last two words, and was silenced in the end.

On the other hand, Wu Zhou was in a very good mood. After some testing, he was indeed a good talent. In this way, his hope of keeping the throne has been greatly improved. If this position is kept, the male lead will become the emperor in the future. It's also much easier.

Wu Zhou followed Zhao Baiyan back to the imperial study, and saw that Zhao Baiyan hadn't said a word all the way, so he couldn't help looking over: "Master Zhao, what's wrong with you? Who provoked you?"

Zhao Baiyan lowered his eyes: "No."

"Then what are you?" Wu Zhou stroked his chin and thought seriously, "Or are you worried about Mr. Qian and the others? Don't worry, I just tried it out, and with the abilities of Mr. Qian and Mr. Lou, they will definitely be able to stop it. "

However, Zhao Baiyan captured some key points: "The emperor only talks with Mr. Qian, how does he know that Mr. Lou also does the same?"

Wu Zhou thought he was worried about Lord Lou's safety, so he couldn't help being in a good mood, glanced at Zhao Boyan, thought of teasing him, covered his lips and coughed, and said seriously: "Master Zhao, you don't know this, do you? I look at Mr. Lou's appearance, he looks dignified and handsome, he is a handsome person at first glance, he must be blessed and bright, and nothing will happen."

Zhao Baiyan thought of the times when the young man saw Lou Yangduo before, and couldn't help but turn his face a little colder: "I don't know, your majesty, you can still read faces." But just by looking at each other, you know that the other party is very capable ?Although it is true, why do you think the emperor is too hasty?

Wu Zhou was amused by Zhao Baiyan's serious appearance: "Hey, you really believe it, so I'll just say it casually. I will naturally believe the person you choose, Mr. Zhao. Besides, the reason why I only test Mr. Qian is because Is it because Mr. Lou is as cold-tempered as Mr. Zhao, so I can’t talk to you? Well, let’s not talk about them, these memorials were not approved last night, so I will keep them for you, Mr. Zhao.”

Zhao Baiyan looked at Wu Zhou with a frown, his previous words flashed in his mind: I feel that I can't get him, so I want to change my target?

Where Wu Zhou knew what the other party was thinking, he saw Zhao Baiyan holding the pair of memorials and went to the side to correct them. Before leaving, he left a sentence: "Your Majesty, don't think too much, Mr. Qian has a sweetheart."

Wu Zhou: "???" What's the matter?Mr. Zhao, are you still a matchmaker?Is this for me to marry you?But does he know who Mr. Qian's sweetheart is?

As a result, no matter what Wu Zhou said afterwards, Zhao Baiyan kept silent and focused on correcting the memorial. In the end, the efficiency was extremely high, and he left the palace and went back before the palace gate was closed at night.

When Wu Zhou was looking through the old books alone at night, he couldn't help feeling: It really is the male lead, his thoughts change too fast, and he can't fathom.

For the next few days, the system did not indicate any more.

So, Wu Zhou allowed Zhao Baiyan to come and go, without any enthusiasm for lunch, dinner or even overnight stay. This further confirmed Zhao Baiyan's guess that the emperor was going to change his target.But the emperor is doomed to fail, Brother Qian and Brother Lou are a couple, the emperor is doomed to be disappointed, not to mention, he has already reminded the emperor, if he insists on doing this, no one can blame him.

But for several days in a row, Zhao Baiyan's mood was in a slump, and he resolutely pointed the finger at Cui Xiang's confidantes, finding out the mistakes, teaching the small ones a lesson, and directly demotion and punishment for the serious ones. The official was shocked, and his words and deeds were very cautious, for fear of offending this person, and privately speculated whether it was because of the previous assassination that Master Zhao was angry?

Wu Zhou has been quite contented these days, except that Zhao Baiyan ignores him when he corrects the memorial, and he doesn't stay with him for meals every day, so he can only grab Eunuch Liu to accompany him.

Then, taking time, he cleared the suspicion of the previous lord, and executed the assassin on the grounds that he could not find the murderer. The case of assassinating lord Zhao became an unsolved case.

Just when Wu Zhou felt that there was no room for him to use his skills for the time being, and wondered whether he should go to bed early that night, the voice of the system that had disappeared for a long time sounded again: "Warm reminder to the host, after noon until midnight, Xiang Cui When Mr. Zhao is inspecting a wooden bridge outside the city newly built by the Ministry of Industry, he will artificially create a collapse, pointing the finger at Mr. Lou, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Mr. Zhao for his ineffective supervision, and Mr. Zhao will be injured because of saving people."

Wu Zhou regained his energy immediately. Hearing such a clear and detailed prediction from the system for the first time, his face turned pale. It seemed that it was not as simple as just being injured: If Mr. Zhao didn't show up tomorrow, wouldn't something happen?

The system didn't make any more sound, but thinking about it, the system only said what would happen the next day, tomorrow's event, and that was another prediction.

But apart from Zhao Baiyan, one of Cui Xiang's goals is Mr. Lou, so...

Therefore, when Wu Zhou was in the early court, he directly left Mr. Lou and Zhao Baiyan, saying that he wanted to build a viewing platform and talk about it in detail, so he summoned both of them back into the imperial study. It's lunch time.

Wu Zhou took advantage of the opportunity to keep the two of them, and they agreed, but when the lunch was over, Wu Zhou still detained them. When Mr. Lou said that he was going to investigate a wooden bridge, Wu Zhou said that he had sent Another adult went, and this adult is Cui Sang's man.He doesn't believe that Cui Xiang can cheat his own people, as long as these two are kept, today's difficulties will be over.

Mr. Lou wanted to supervise in person, but was stopped by Wu Zhou directly: "What? Mr. Lou thinks this observation tower is not as good as one of your wooden bridges?" His expression also sank, making Mr. Lou unpredictable for a while The emperor's wrath.

He felt that the emperor was familiar with Zhao Baiyan, so he looked at Zhao Baiyan for help, and found that the latter's expression was a little heavy, especially when he looked at the arm of the new emperor holding his chest, his expression was subtle and thought-provoking.

Wu Zhou also followed Lord Lou's gaze, and met Zhao Baiyan's gaze just now, and always felt a chill down his back: What are you looking at?Who am I doing this for, and not to save the two of you?

However, Zhao Baiyan lowered his eyes and cupped his hands: "Since the emperor wants to have a detailed discussion with Mr. Lou, then I can leave the matter of investigation to my humble servant." After finishing speaking, he turned around neatly and was about to leave. He grabbed his sleeve: "No, you stay too. I have something to look for you later."

Zhao Baiyan lowered his eyes, his brows twitched, he turned his head, glanced at Master Lou who was unclear, then at himself, and finally cast a sideways glance at the young man with strange eyes.

Wu Zhou: "???" What kind of look is this?
