Chapter 42: Asking her, a student who had to repeat a grade in the study room, to distribute memorials? ?
"I have indeed studied this kind of paper before, so there are only a few scraps left!"
Yun Shu rested his arms on the window frame of the dragon chariot, raised his head and talked nonsense without any guilt:
"Speaking of which, I really feel sorry for these expensive leftovers, so I tried every possible way to make use of them!"
"So, I should praise you for your thriftiness?"
After putting the cards back into the box, Emperor Xuanwu didn't know whether he had received the letter or not.
After all, he really didn't dwell on this question anymore, and just asked another question indifferently:
"Didn't you say before that you had some ideas about how to make cheap paper? Did you come up with any results?"
"not yet."
Thinking of the excuse he had used before, Yun Shu touched his nose:
"This road is too bumpy. The carriage driven by my sixth brother can only keep me from feeling uncomfortable when sitting on it, but it is still unstable in places where it should be.
I really can't concentrate on thinking while sitting inside, so I can only play some cards to relax my mind...
Father, if you don't believe me, you can try it. This deck of cards is really suitable for leisure and entertainment."
"I am here to relax and have fun. Do you think you should review those memorials?"
Emperor Xuanwu snorted coldly.
Yun Shu followed his line of sight and saw the thick stack of documents inside. He took a deep breath on the spot:
"Your Majesty is very busy, I will not waste your time any more, I am leaving now!"
terrible!
No wonder people say that the emperor is the king of file kings and a model worker among model workers.
Even when going out hunting, you have to carry such a thick pile of documents.
Even though Concubine Liu loved reading novels so much, she complained that the carriage was too bumpy on the road and simply stopped reading!
Yun Shu turned around and wanted to run away, but unexpectedly, Emperor Xuanwu did not give her a chance to escape:
"stop!"
"…Father."
Yun Shu turned around bitterly and showed a flattering smile:
"Do you have any other instructions?"
Emperor Xuanwu glanced at her but did not speak immediately.
In fact, he was busy looking at the options that popped up on the screen.
【The Sims selection system is at your service.
Please select the decision you would like to make next:
A. Let Yunshu return to Concubine Liu's carriage;
B. Keep Yunshu with you to review the memorials. 】
Although Emperor Xuanwu knew that such an option would pop up on the light curtain, it probably meant that he should choose the second one.
But even the Crown Prince had never had the experience of accompanying him to review memorials.
Therefore, he chose the first option with the mentality of giving it a try.
[You chose A. One year later, the ministers requested to depose the crown prince on the grounds that it was a warning from heaven.]
How could this be?
Could it be that the eldest prince is behind this again?
Emperor Xuanwu frowned and quickly chose the second option.
[You chose B. In the next hundred years of Tiansheng Dynasty, the number of people with natural disabilities will decrease by nearly one million.]
As the name suggests, a person with a congenital disability is one who is born with an incomplete constitution.
Normally, such children cannot be raised to life. They are either abandoned at birth or die while being raised.
There are quite a few such children in the Tiansheng Dynasty every year, and even in the royal family there have been such cases.
However, in the royal family, as soon as such children appear, they will be secretly dealt with.
Including Emperor Xuanwu, everyone previously believed that the birth of such a child must be due to the child's parents' lack of virtue and punishment from heaven.
But now...
That’s nearly a million people! Emperor Xuanwu looked at Yun Shu with a different look in his eyes:
"you……"
He paused, then spoke slowly:
"Don't you want me to have a good rest?"
"...My son's intention is to let you relax for a while in your spare time."
Unsure of what Emperor Xuanwu meant by this, Yun Shu carefully considered his words:
"But if it's a matter of the court..."
"There are indeed a lot of affairs in the court, but not everything needs my personal review."
Emperor Xuanwu interrupted her:
"You will sort these memorials for me according to their urgency and importance."
Yun Shu: “?”
Cheap dad finally went crazy?
He actually asked her, a student who had failed the study room, to sort out memorials for him? ?
"Father, I don't know how to do these things!"
Yunshu decisively gave up:
“You also know that I only memorized the Doctrine of the Mean and the Great Learning a few days ago. My knowledge level is not even as good as that of my Sixth Brother. How can I distinguish which memorials are important and which are not?
If I accidentally make a mistake, I won't be able to take the responsibility!"
"Then you can read it to me."
Emperor Xuanwu did not make it difficult for her:
"My eyes are a little tired from looking at it all along the way. It's your turn to help me."
"..."
His eyes are just eyes, other people's eyes don't matter, right?
With the wicked mentality of "I would rather die than let my friend die", Yun Shu was still trying to pass the job on to someone else, but when he turned around, he hadn't found a scapegoat yet.
Then I heard Emperor Xuanwu speak again:
"Why, are you so anxious to go back and earn money from your Sixth Brother and his men?"
Yun Shu: “…”
I understand. No wonder he suddenly went crazy and asked her to read the memorial.
I'm looking for a place to bury my wife and children!
When he was cheating his son, he even said something like "left foot or right foot first".
Now she has only earned less than a thousand taels of silver by her own ability, and he is not happy?
Yun Shu was angry in her heart, but she looked very obedient:
"I just feel that I am not suitable. After all, memorials are nothing else."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense."
Emperor Xuanwu raised his chin slightly, signaling her to get in the car quickly and not stand outside thinking about running away:
"Li Dehai can do things like distributing memorials, so why can't you, the Fifth Princess and my daughter, do it?"
"That's different..."
Yun Shu muttered something reluctantly, but finally climbed onto the dragon chariot.
Unlike Yun Chuhuan's carriage, which was extremely luxurious, Emperor Xuanwu's dragon chariot did not have fist-sized night-shining pearls hanging as light bulbs, nor was it so exaggerated that a bunch of gems were embedded in the carved areas of the carriage.
But with a bunch of top-notch items and specifications that only emperors can enjoy, its comfort level is actually much higher.
If she wasn't here to work, Yun Shu would definitely be very happy.
Pity.
Yun Shu slowly opened a memorial and, after forcing himself to concentrate, tried to read out the extremely ornate words on the memorial word for word.
Because she didn't recognize a few unfamiliar characters, she was even scolded several times by Emperor Xuanwu with his eyes.
But after reading the whole thing, I found out that it was just a letter of greeting!
