Today's morning court was different from the past.
The wise and mighty Second Emperor Li sent out three decrees in a row, shocking all the officials.
The first was to thank the civil and military officials who had worked day and night for the Great Tang for hosting a banquet tonight.
For a moment, the civil and military officials in the court were moved to tears of gratitude. They called His Majesty wise and said that it was their duty to share the worries of the monarch. In the future, they would roll up their sleeves and work hard…
The second was to marry Qin Yu, the nephew of the Duke of Yi Country, and marry Princess Jin Yang to Qin Yu. The marriage would be completed this winter.
The officials were only a little surprised by this edict. After all, everyone knew that Qin Yu had treated Princess Jin Yang at the age of eight and that His Majesty had bestowed her with a marriage yesterday.
The only thing that puzzled everyone was why His Majesty suddenly changed the wedding date.
Wasn't it supposed to be eight years later when Princess Jin Yang was twelve?
However, even if he didn't understand, it was useless.
This was because Emperor Li Er did not explain. For some reason, Li Er did not tell anyone about Qin Yu's eight poems last night.
Of course, this was a matter of the royal family. Even if the civil and military officials felt that this matter was inappropriate, they could not say anything. Moreover, from the looks of it, the Emperor had already made up his mind and could not change it.
The only thing they found hard to believe and accept was the third decree.
The third decree was to appoint Qin Yu as the head of the warehouse department of the Ministry of Revenue.
The moment this edict was issued, all the officials in the court widened their eyes in disbelief.
His Majesty actually appointed an eight-year-old child as the warehouse manager?
This was…So what if an eight-year-old child had excellent medical skills?
What ability do you have to take on such a great responsibility?
One had to know that above the warehouse manager was the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
He would definitely become a high official.
But...
How could they know that if it wasn't for Li Er's fear that the official position would be too high and the other officials would find it difficult to accept, he would probably have directly appointed the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
An eight-year-old assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, just thinking about it was terrifying.
Other than Gan Luo, who was an eight-year-old prime minister in ancient times, who else could compare to Qin Yu?
However, even so, all the officials found it hard to accept.
Of course, the generals and civil officials who were on good terms with Qin Qiong were happy to see this.
However, what was even more difficult for the officials to accept was Qin Yu's power.
It was Qin Yu, the authority of the warehouse manager.
Qin Yu was given full authority to deal with the locust plague and disaster relief. No one else was allowed to interfere.
this
Was His Majesty crazy?
It was one thing to let an eight-year-old kid be the warehouse manager, but to give him such a heavy responsibility?
Exterminating locusts and disaster relief concerned the people, the fate of the Great Tang, and the country.
However, His Majesty was so careless and handed it over to an eight-year-old child.
For a moment, the officials cried out in pain.
"Your Majesty, you must not do this…"
"Your Majesty, this old minister will die to remonstrate!"
"Your Majesty, this matter cannot be trifled with…"
"Your Majesty…Wow!"
Li Er's face darkened as he looked down and wailed, beating his chest and stamping his feet.
Before he made this decision, he had already expected that there would be a lot of resistance.
However, he was the emperor. Even if everyone disagreed, he could not change his decision.
He wanted to forcefully issue the decree. Those who refused to accept it were useless.
He only hoped that Qin Yu would not disappoint him.
Li Er sighed in his heart and said in a deep voice,""Alright, I've made up my mind. You don't have to say anything else.”
After saying that, Li Er stood up and left.
At the same time, he asked the eunuch to call his trusted ministers to the study.
The pressure was too great…
I have to find a few people to share the burden. At the very least, I have to let them know my good intentions.
If all the trusted ministers supported Li Er, then the resistance to this matter would be much lighter.
Because those who advised him were all officials who were good for him.
As for some parasites?
They couldn't wait to see a joke.
At the same time, in Qin Yu's small courtyard, he and a few little birds gathered again.
"Brother, why are you looking for us so early in the morning?”Cheng Chumo grinned.
Beside him, his two brothers were still yawning.
Yuchi Baolin clutched her stomach and sighed.""Ever since I vomited yesterday, I haven't eaten a single mouthful of rice. It's so uncomfortable…"
"Then should I order someone to prepare some?" Qin Yu said with a smile.”
"No…"
They shook their heads.
Cheng Chubi said," Let's talk about it. I'll come back to eat the Flying Yellow Meatballs in the next two days. I have to say, those things are really delicious."”
Seeing this, Qin Yu said seriously,"In that case, let's get down to business." To tell you the truth, there is an important matter for me to call all of you here so early today.”
"What is it?"
"Brother, I will definitely do it safely.”
Seeing how serious Qin Yu was, the five of them also became serious.
Qin Yu smiled again and said,"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that His Majesty wants to invite all the officials to a banquet today and needs flying yellow pills."?"Therefore, this matter was handed over to me. Therefore, I thought that I would have to trouble the few of you to leave the city and secretly get some locusts. It would be fine as long as the people in the court don't see them.”
"What?"
"His Majesty invited all the officials to eat locusts?”
"I... Is it that exciting?"
"I understand. Brother, don't worry. I won't steal chickens and dogs, but I'll definitely do it beautifully.”
The five of them were very surprised. They immediately came to their senses and patted their chests to guarantee.
They did not dare to be careless. It seemed like Qin Yu was asking them for help, but in fact, it was the Emperor's instructions.
How could he be careless when working for the emperor?
"Mm, I naturally feel assured when you guys handle things. After dealing with the locusts, we will enter the palace together secretly.”Qin Yu smiled and was about to continue talking about the restaurant when a system notification suddenly sounded in her mind.
Ding!" Congratulations to the host for being appointed as the manager of the Great Tang's Ministry of Revenue and Warehouse. Achievement completed…"
