"Your Highness summoned me to the palace, but is there anything you want me to do?" Li Si bowed.
During this period, he has gradually accepted the fact that His Majesty is going to make Zhao Qingrui the crown prince. He even thinks that it might not be a bad idea for Zhao Qingrui to be the emperor. She can listen to their words, is not as arbitrary as His Majesty, and has a gentle temperament.
"I remember you kept a few backup copies of the test papers from a while ago and haven't released them." Zhao Qingrui looked at Li Si.
"Yes, Your Highness, are you planning to take the exam again?" Li Si frowned slightly.
"No, Doctor Chunyu will be released soon. All the officials in the court have been assessed, but Doctor Chunyu has not been assessed. If I let him return to his original position directly, I'm afraid some people will be dissatisfied. I would like to ask Prime Minister Li to go there in person and supervise the examination for Lord Chunyu." Zhao Qingrui's face was gentle.
Li Si and Chunyu Yue did not get along, so she asked him to invigilate Chunyu Yue's exam. She felt relieved and did not have to worry about Chunyu Yue cheating.
Although this guy has real skills, and she also believes that Chunyu Yue has real talent and knowledge, the necessary procedures still have to be followed.
"Li Si obeys the order." Li Si was stunned for a moment, thinking about the time Chunyu Yue had been in solitary confinement. It was indeed time for him to be released.
During this period, there were many new people in various departments. As the prime minister of Daqin, he had the duty of commanding all officials. Although the Censorate was watching the newcomers, he was also paying attention to those people to see who was suitable for promotion.
Many departments in the court are short of staff, and these people are the best to fill the vacancies, but they cannot be promoted casually.
Moreover, because there were more female officials during this period, there was more gossip in the court, especially among the Confucian scholars, who were the most excited.
If Zhao Qingrui hadn't given that order, those people would have made a fuss.
Those Confucian scholars formed cliques and small groups in the court, trying to support Prince Fusu, and at the same time looking for opportunities to pull down Zhao Qingrui from time to time, and they were very busy.
If you don’t know, you might think they are the prime ministers of the Qin Dynasty. I don’t know where these people’s arrogance comes from.
Is it because of Master Fusu? Although Master Fusu was in charge of the salt shop, many officials were admitted to the salt shop during this assessment, but the two people sent by Zhao Qingrui were still in charge, and Fusu was only responsible for the overall leadership.
Prince Fusu basically stayed away from the court. As Zhao Qingrui became more and more famous in the court, Prince Fusu's supporters gradually decreased.
This is exactly why those Confucian scholars became restless.
Prince Fusu gradually faded out of the court, and these people are now using Prince Fusu's name to try to use him to compete for the position of crown prince.
In his opinion, these people are simply seeking their own death. Not only will they kill themselves, but they will also harm Prince Fusu.
Now Your Majesty is not intervening, just watching them committing suicide. When they step on Your Majesty's bottom line, then these people will be finished.
As for Zhao Qingrui, she simply didn't take these clowns seriously.
However, as for the invigilator Chunyu Yue, Li Si narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that Chunyu Yue's expression would probably be very distorted when he saw him invigilating him.
"As for the marking, please ask Minister Li and Minister Feng to do it together. Send them to me after you finish marking them." Zhao Qingrui said gently.
"If Dr. Chunyu passes the exam, Your Highness, does he have any arrangements for him?" Li Si looked at Zhao Qingrui seriously.
"If he scores above good, he will stay in his original position. If he can't even get a good score, Dr. Chunyu might be neglecting his studies. Let him go and work with Wang Shourong and other adults to revise books. This way he will have more time to study." Zhao Qingrui did not hide his thoughts.
The doctoral institute is still short of staff, but Chunyu Yue is the same no matter where he is. I hope he won't be so blind as to cause trouble for me when the time comes.
"Your Highness is wise." Li Si raised his eyebrows and had no objection to Zhao Qingrui's arrangement.
"I'll have to trouble Prime Minister Feng to make another trip." Zhao Qingrui chuckled.
Not long after Li Si left, a strong wind blew and the sky was filled with dark clouds.
A bright flash of lightning streaked across the sky, a huge thunder resounded through the earth, and then heavy rain poured down.
The rain was pouring down, and the sky seemed to have a hole in it, and the rain poured down like a waterfall.
The scenery in the distance was blurry, filled with confusing rain fog and bright lightning, and my ears were filled with rumbling thunder and the sound of pouring rain.
Zhao Qingrui stood in Zhangtai Palace, looking at the heavy rain outside. She was afraid that her oil-paper umbrella could not reach Xuanyi Palace.
"Your Highness, the canopy has been delivered." Chunxi came in and said respectfully.
"Let's go." Zhao Qingrui nodded. This canopy is basically an umbrella used by nobles. Daqin already has straw raincoats and bamboo hats. As a princess of Daqin, she naturally would not use these things.
This canopy is completely different from Dad's barrier which has both offensive and defensive functions. Hers can only block the rain.
In addition to protecting from rain, sun and dust, the umbrella on the vehicle can also be turned into a weapon in critical moments. By opening the buckle, the umbrella can be separated into two parts, the top of the umbrella can be used as a shield and the umbrella body can be used as a spear. In addition to defending against the enemy, you can also find the right opportunity to counterattack.
That was Dad's exclusive item, built to prevent assassinations.
Raindrops hit the canopy heavily, and Zhao Qingrui was escorted back to Xuanyi Palace by the palace maids.
Zhao Qingrui thought that the rainstorm would not last long, but she didn't expect it to stop until the next day.
Ying Zheng even sent a direct message to Zhao Qingrui, asking her to preside over the court meeting the next day.
Zhao Qingrui sat in that supreme position. The court officials were like: What’s going on?
"Your Majesty has an order. The weather has been bad these days. Your Majesty has important matters to attend to in Shanglin Garden. Princess Qingrui will be the regent." Zhao Gao stood up. He came here early in the morning to follow Zhao Qingrui.
"Your Majesty obeys your order." Well, Your Majesty did not hide his thoughts at all.
Looking at the serious-looking girl sitting at the top, many people felt a tightness in their hearts.
Accepting the worship of all officials, sitting in the highest position, being able to see everyone at once, with an excellent view, this feeling is really good.
Despite being stared at by so many people, Zhao Qingrui was not nervous at all, and was even a little eager to try.
"Your Highness, I have something to report." Court Justice Cao Shen stood up.
Seeing Cao Shen, Zhao Qingrui raised his eyebrows. Cao Shen had been doing a very good job in the Ministry of Justice during this period. He was an upright person and had handled many cases. He was the one who dealt with all the crimes in the court.
"Accurate." Zhao Qingrui's voice sounded.
"The prison of the Supreme Court is almost full. Most of these prisoners are officials who have committed crimes and their families. Please make the decision, Your Highness." Cao Shen said respectfully.
"Does anyone have any good ideas?" Zhao Qingrui looked at the others.
"Your Highness, I think it should be sent to Mount Li to build the imperial mausoleum, or sent to Shanglin Garden to build the Afang Palace." Li Si suggested.
"I second the motion." Many people agreed with Li Si.
"Your Highness, these people are all criminals in the court. Although their crimes are not punishable by death, they must be properly placed, preferably in a controllable place." Feng Quji also agreed with Li Si's suggestion. It was a waste of food to keep these people in the Tingwei prison.
