Lü Yijian was old, and his reaction and thinking hadn't kept up. He immediately wondered, "What does this painting mean?"
Yan Shu came over and took a quick look, then said, "You're making fun of us, right?"
"Where is the ridicule? There are no officials here."
Lu Yijian was still puzzled.
Yan Shu pointed at the evidence and asked, "What is this?"
"Evidence of Guo Chengyou's crime?"
"So is Guo Chengyou a greedy person?"
"Of course."
"What's that letter on the table?"
"letter?"
Lü Yijian was a bit presbyopic, and even after leaning over, he still couldn't understand, so he asked, "What does this have to do with the government?"
"This letter is the letter of appeal written by the government to Hanlong."
Yan Shu replied, "The emperor is pleading for mercy for a greedy and mean person. Isn't this mocking us?"
Everyone finally came to their senses.
This thing is exactly the same as the jokes in the Song Dynasty. They are the kind of things that you don’t understand the meaning of at first, but you can only understand it after thinking about it carefully.
A corrupt official, a traitor who took human life lightly. An honest official found evidence of his crimes and wanted to bring him to justice. However, on the honest official's desk, a letter from the emperor pleading for mercy for the traitor appeared.
The emperor who should have hated corrupt officials was protecting and sheltering them. Isn't this ironic?
"It feels like they're not laughing at us, but at the government?"
Wang Sui said in a low voice.
Lü Yijian then said righteously, "The Constitutional Court represents the emperor's reputation. Even if one is mocking the emperor, one is also mocking the Constitutional Court."
Everyone secretly complained, otherwise you, Lu Yijian, could have become a high-ranking official. This is a very nice way of speaking.
"Forget it, let Hanlong scold me, it's not the first time anyway."
Wang Zeng shrugged and said, "But should I show this painting to the emperor?"
"Don't show it to the officials."
Wang Sui said, "If the emperor saw this, wouldn't he be very unhappy?"
"If Hanlong knew that we withheld this painting and didn't show it to the emperor, do you think he would be even more unhappy?"
Yan Shu asked in reply, "The situation now is that if we show it to the emperor, he will be upset. But if we don't show it to the emperor, we will offend Han Long, and no one will be able to live in peace in the future."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
Zhao Jun is now a little bully and no one can afford to offend him.
If he gets angry and scolds them, that would be the least of his worries. But if he really starts to mess things up, that would be terrible.
Therefore, dealing with Zhao Jun was even more difficult than dealing with the emperor before.
At least the emperor was fooled by them and behaved very well. But Zhao Jun couldn't be fooled at all. They tried but failed.
If Zhao Jun is upset, there will be big trouble in the future.
So everyone looked at each other in confusion.
"We'll talk about it when the time comes."
Lu Yijian thought for a moment, then said, "The official document sent by Hanlong still needs to be shown to the emperor. This painting only needs to be reviewed by the emperor. There is no need to tell the emperor its meaning, so it will not be counted as withheld."
"So be it."
Everyone had no choice but to agree.
In the afternoon, it was time for another meeting.
Zhao Zhen is playing games.
The weather has finally cleared up in the past few days, the sun is out, and the battery is charged, so of course I have to enjoy it to my heart's content.
He was a bit tired of playing Metal Slug, and he couldn't figure out how to play those large-scale 3A games, as well as StarCraft, Warcraft, Red Alert and the like.
After a lot of trouble, I finally played Plants vs. Zombies.
It's fun to light the sun and plant pea shooters.
At this moment, Wang Shouzhong outside the door knocked on the door three times quickly.
Zhao Zhen quickly paused the game, switched out skillfully, and then clicked on a piece of learning material, seeming to be immersed in it.
“Crack!”
Soon the door opened and Wang Shouzhong came in and said, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Lu and his men are here."
"Well, let them in."
Zhao Zhen said.
Lü Yijian, Wang Zeng, and the others filed in, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Um."
Zhao Zhen nodded, closed his laptop, and then said, "Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen. What are your official duties today?"
Lu Yijian reported what happened today.
There are a large number of government reports from all over the country every day, and recently there have even been many letters impeaching Zhao Jun.
After all, Zhao Jun arrested many officials in a state without going through the Censorate, which was obviously another interference in the authority of the Censorate.
Even though he acted in the name of the Imperial City Administration, it was not the first time, and no matter how much the Censorate impeached Zhao Jun, it would still stand firm, but the necessary procedures still had to be followed.
Otherwise, if Zhao Jun always used the power granted by the government to the Imperial City Bureau to arrest people everywhere, and they didn't even say a word, it would be too embarrassing. They should at least struggle to prove that they had resisted.
Zhao Zhen nodded slightly from time to time, frowned in deep thought, and occasionally gave a few words of praise in the midst of a miscellaneous pile of things. It seemed that he was listening carefully to Lu Yijian's report on national affairs.
But in fact, Zhao Zhen was urging Lu Yijian to finish his report quickly.
In the past, he always felt that Master Lu was not only his instructor in class, but also his guide in life and a very important minister to him.
But I don’t know why, but lately, seeing him nagging, I’m becoming more and more impatient and annoyed.
The game is still fun.
Zhao Zhen was still pretending, his thoughts had already flown away to who knows where.
At the national level, the issue is no longer about how many cases the local government has solved, or how the local landlords oppress the people, but rather concerns the country's military, economy, and people's livelihood.
