The emperor looked at everyone and said, "My precious pearl is in the growth period and cannot stay up late..."
Disappointment immediately appeared on the faces of the ministers.
Seeing this, the emperor changed the subject and said, "However, the imperial city is safe, so we must not let our guard down.
If the Imperial Guards and the Palace Guards are not fully staffed, chaos will break out.
But there are many people waiting for the inspection...
Even if I stay up all night, I may not be able to complete the investigation by noon tomorrow..."
The ministers all looked up. It seemed that there was room for maneuver...
Then the emperor said, "How about we trouble you, my dear ministers, to conduct on-site group inspections...
Prince Rui is in charge of the overall planning. We should be able to complete the inspection tonight and the basic staffing is in place..."
When the minister heard this, his eyes widened. What's the point?
Without the little princess, what melons could they hear?
What can be examined is just the surface...
How can you detect the other person's character and hidden virtues in just half a cup of tea?
Even if we spend a few more days to investigate these homes and neighbors, we may not be able to find out the truth unless we accumulate evidence...
As the little princess revealed before, there are still many things that have not happened...
Who could be so insightful as the little princess?
Of course, these are just excuses...
They can't let go of this opportunity to eat melons in the name of honor!
There are so many candidates...
Which means, how many more melons are there?!
It’s exciting to think about.
Therefore, two ministers stepped forward and admonished with "righteousness":
"Your Majesty, it takes several years, even eleven years, for the court to train a capable official...
We must take good care of the source. The little princess is our lucky star. She not only reveals the candidate's virtue, but also predicts subsequent events...
It can really help the court eliminate many candidates with questionable moral character at the source.
I beg Your Majesty to think twice, it is better to have no military guards than to have too few!"
The ministers behind him nodded one after another after hearing this.
You are so right!
Although, that's only part of the reason...
Another minister who was kneeling down advised, "Your Majesty, before choosing a suitable person, I am willing to guard the safety of the imperial city..."
This means that it is recommended to complete the inspection at one time...
The emperor couldn't help but look up at the person kneeling in front of him.
Why didn't I realize before that this person was so diligent and considerate of him?
The other ministers saw that the emperor seemed to be seriously considering...
They came out one after another to offer advice.
The speech was impassioned, whether from the seriousness of the examination, the consistency of the standards, or the urgent shortage of soldiers in the Imperial Guards and the Palace Front Department, and the limited means...
The main point is that the inspection cannot stop and the little princess is indispensable.
But they couldn't ask directly, so the little princess stayed up all night and told them stories...
The emperor looked at the prince.
The prince stood up to make a statement, the palace gates were closed as usual, the ministers took turns to be on duty, and the rest of the people stayed where they were or in the duty room to rest...
The remaining candidates waiting for the exam should rest where they are and are not allowed to move around at will.
After the little princess has had a good rest, we will start the investigation again.
The ministers' eyes lit up. A night's duty in exchange for more than 200 melons?
What a good deal!
What's more, with so many people, if they take turns, each person can't be on duty for more than two hours...
Not a loss!
The emperor suddenly turned towards Prince Rui.
Prince Rui immediately stood up and said, "But, Your Majesty..."
