The emperor resurrected with full health.
He was more alert during court sessions, but it was no wonder that Xu Ning thought the emperor was idle, because the memorials he read today were still about trivial matters.
In order to appear before the emperor, some officials wrote memorials to the emperor without reservation so that the emperor would remember them.
The emperor read one book and threw it away. His face turned dark as he threw away each book.
An Jiu sympathetically poured him a glass of water.
The emperor threw a memorial to her.
"Read it to me and stamp it after you finish reading it."
An Jiu dared not to do so and shirked his responsibility: "Your Majesty, the harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs."
The emperor sat lazily and said unhappily, "Just read it if I tell you to."
[These bullshit things are nothing but political affairs.] 】
[I have to deal with these things every day, it’s really annoying. 】
[If I had known that being an emperor would be so boring, I would have given it to Prince Ruyang. 】
The emperor was lost in thought, and he had no idea whether he had heard what An Jiunian said.
"Qi County sent a cart of dried fruits. The magistrate of Qi County wishes your majesty a happy new year and all the best."
An Jiu frowned. This county magistrate was probably bought or recommended. He obviously had no talent and his handwriting was not good. Besides, it was not the Spring Festival, so his blessing sounded weird.
It's really hard for the emperor to see these every day.
An Jiu picked up another book and read it. This book was like a running account. It recorded everything the prefect had done and achieved this year. It even recorded how many cows the county had this year...
An Jiu: "..."
The emperor yawned.
An Jiu stamped the seal.
There are still quite a few left, all caused by the emperor’s illness in the past three days.
"Is it annoying?" the emperor suddenly asked.
An Jiu nodded: "It's really annoying."
They were all trivial matters, and these things occupied most of the emperor's time.
The emperor laughed when he heard her answer.
“I look at these every day.”
An Jiu thought: "Your Majesty, why don't you find some people to read the memorials, let them handle the small matters, and ask you to make the decision if you really can't make up your mind. This way, Your Majesty can relax a little and won't delay the really useful things?"
The emperor glanced at her.
"It's not as simple as you think. The officials in the court now listen to Prime Minister Jiang, and the generals follow the lead of General Zhenyuan. I took over some people from the late emperor, but these people may not really obey me. They are still thinking about Prince Ruyang."
An Jiu: "..."
It sounds like you are a bit of a wimp.
Presumably, this situation did not start with the emperor, but was a drawback of the clan system passed down from generation to generation. It must have been very serious during the time of the previous emperor.
After a few more generations, the emperor might become a complete puppet.
The emperor was so bored every day because the real military and political affairs were not in his hands.
An Jiu asked: "Your Majesty, have you ever thought that there is something wrong with the system itself?"
The emperor looked at her with amusement: "What is the system?"
An Jiu: "It's the clan system. These officials in the capital form cliques and factions. They have their own powerful groups. When they retire, the new people who take over are also their people. If this continues, what relationship does the court have with their family?"
The emperor looked up at her and said, "You really understand."
[I really understand. 】
He looked at An Jiu suspiciously.
An Jiu thought, here it comes again and again and again.
I began to doubt people again.
If I didn’t feel sorry for the domineering president’s stomachache, would I have said it?
[Forget it, even a palace maid knows this...]
[I am in such a miserable state! 】
He sighed.
"So what do you think we should do?"
An Jiu was speechless: "I don't know, I am too talkative, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
After saying that, An Jiu continued to read those boring and lengthy memorials.
emperor"……"
Why? No, why don't you say that? ? ?
[Is she angry? 】
[It's impossible. A little palace maid wouldn't dare to be angry with me. 】
An Jiu seemed to see three big question marks stuck on the emperor's head.
snort!
She just didn't say anything.
Let the smartest emperor in the world think about it himself.
The wisest emperor in the world really started to think.
[I know very well that the power of the clan is too great, and sooner or later I will be sidelined. 】
[But this cannot be solved in a short time. 】
What should I do? 】
He looked at An Jiu, who was reading memorials. He seemed very focused and was actually listening to what the emperor was thinking.
As expected, the emperor is the emperor.
He quickly figured it out.
[The imperial examination system is good. It selects people from all over the country. These people who pass the exam can be used by me. 】
[The late emperor had mentioned this before, but unfortunately it failed. I am afraid that these old men in the court are about to forget who this river belongs to. 】
[I have to find a way to divide them up and let them kill each other so that I can fish in troubled waters...]
An Jiu nodded.
This question she raised must not be the first time that the emperor has thought about it, but a thick ice does not form overnight. He has only been on the throne for a short time and has not had time to do it. In addition, he must be physically exhausted from his occasional illness.
But he was very efficient and quickly came up with one bad idea after another. He didn't care about An Jiu and picked up a pen and paper to write something.
An Jiu didn't read the memorial, fearing that it would disturb him. But when the emperor finished writing, he suddenly looked at her and asked, "Why don't you read it?"
An Jiu continued reading.
The emperor pointed to the thick stack of memorials on the table.
"I haven't found anyone to specialize in screening the memorials yet. For the time being, you will read through them and sort them out on my behalf."
An Jiu: "..."
"Your Majesty, the harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs. I am just a palace maid, I am afraid I am not worthy of this responsibility."
The emperor looked at her head. The palace maid's hairstyle was very simple, with two small buns tied with a pink hairband. All the palace maids looked similar and wore the same clothes. The emperor was too lazy to spend time looking at them. But now, he thought Xiaojiu's bun was pretty good-looking, and the hairband was also his favorite pink...
[I want to scare her.] 】
The emperor's voice followed: "When you finish reading, I will kill you. This way, it will not be considered as interfering in politics."
An Jiu: "..."
You are born in the year of the dog, right?
Dog Emperor! ! !
The first bad idea that the emperor thought of was to sow discord between the General Zhenyuan's Mansion and the Jiang family. So the first step was to go see Concubine De, the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family. She was beautiful, a real lady from a noble family, and her every move showed the demeanor of a noble lady.
The emperor still ate at her place and came back from there.
The news was known to Concubine Shu soon.
Originally, everyone was living a peaceful life as a widow, but suddenly Defei was favored by the emperor. Shufei thought she was playing some tricks, so she sent someone to eavesdrop. It turned out that Defei even sent a plate of cakes to the emperor, saying that she made them herself.
The emperor was very happy and rewarded her with many things.
This time Concubine Shu was furious.
She was a military general's daughter, she had opportunities, but not many. When she encountered such a thing, she began to feel restless. She couldn't fall behind, otherwise she would be suppressed by Concubine De.
So she turned around and went to Concubine De...
After the emperor came back from Concubine De, he finally finished reading An Jiu's memorial.
The body is not tired, but the 뀞 is tired.
She kind of understood why the emperor was so annoyed every day.
If it were her turn, she would also be annoyed.
