Chapter 95: Good ministers and good ministers also eat food

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, I went to the grave to ask for a grand offering from my ancestors.

Whether in Qin, Qi or Chu, whether it is a noble or a commoner, you have to do this on the first day of New Year's Eve. As a royal family that sets an example in the world, you naturally have to do the most rigorous and solemn.

It was still dark, and a eunuch called Qin Lei to get up quietly. After being served by the eunuch palace maids in a daze, it took twice as long to put on the complicated sacrificial garment. He walked outside the house awkwardly, and there was a pure black gold-painted king car waiting.

After getting in the car, Qin Lei was about to lean on the soft seat and followed the little eunuch Xiaoyi who came in to serve, saying, "Your Highness, this sacrificial wardrobe is afraid of being suppressed."

Qin Lei was not annoyed and asked with a smile: "How long will it take to arrive at the tomb of the First Emperor?" The little eunuch replied softly: "It will take two and a half hours at the fastest."

When Qin Lei heard this, he said depressedly: "Do you want the fifth master to sit upright for two and a half hours?" He stared at the little eunuch and asked: "How long will it take for you to put this outfit on the fifth master?"

This little eunuch was the one who Qin Lei called to remind the Empress Dowager when he met the Empress Dowager. The empress dowager was afraid that the insulting supervisor would neglect Qin Lei, so she sent the little eunuch named Huang Zhao to him as the general manager.

This little master Huang is a delicate mind. He has been with Qin Lei for a while, so how could he not understand his thoughts? He could only say with a bitter face: "That servant is called Your Highness."

Qin Lei stood up and smiled and said, "When it comes to grasping people's hearts, knowing cold and hot, my Si Shui is not as good as your Xiao Huang." Eunuch Xiao Huang smiled bitterly and removed the complicated sacrificial wardrobe for him and placed it neatly aside.

Qin Lei, who was left with only the middle clothes, was lying comfortably on the wide soft seat, whispering Huang Zhao with his feet, and laughed: "Get the fifth master to find a bed and quilt."

Huang Zhao opened the secret lattice under the seat, carried out a brocade quilt from it and covered it with Qin Lei, and then put out the palace lanterns. Qin Lei fell asleep, leaving only the little eunuch guarding the warm basin with faint blue flames.

I don’t know how long it took, someone knocked on the car door. Huang Zhao went over and asked quietly, and heard that it was the prince, so he quickly twisted the light and opened the door.

As soon as the prince came in, he saw Qin Lei sleeping soundly curled up on the chair and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He stepped forward and pushed him, and Qin Lei woke up immediately.

He opened his eyes and muttered, "Second brother, I'm just going to bed."

The prince laughed and scolded, "You crazy guy, you can untied your clothes and lie down on your way to worship your ancestors. I will not report to my father and whip you."

Qin Lei sat up and laughed: "I know my second brother is reluctant to let him go, let me tell you, what's the matter with me?"

The prince said with a straight face: "Just come and see you, what's wrong."

Qin Lei pressed the quilt behind his back and laughed and said, "Come on, there must be something amazing that can only be told that you, Brother, you will fall into my broken car regardless of the criticism."

Huang Zhao moved a Jindun to the prince. The prince sat down and said, "Now you, Master Qin Wu, is the number one hot figure in Kyoto. He is also the nickname of the Jade-faced Little Overlord."

Qin Lei suddenly felt energetic and said with great enthusiasm: "This nickname is good. It can not only reflect my handsomeness, but also reflect my domineeringness."

The prince fell for a moment, and after a while, he said slowly: "You are relieved, but the Taiwei Mansion is upset. Although there will be no movement before the New Year, I believe that you will be more beautiful as soon as the first month of the year comes."

Qin Lei scratched his head and said with a little distress: "Yes, several big slaps in the face one after another, even the Iceman must make a fuse. What's more, the Taiwei family, who is so arrogant that he is arrogant."

The prince sneered: "Whether you are arrogant, you are better than the little overlord of jade face." Then he stopped teasing and said seriously: "You will send a delegation to the next year, and your disciples will also live. If you don't make plans early, you will be beautiful at that time."

Qin Lei nodded and said, "You really have to make plans early. Second brother, what are your ideas?"

The prince pondered: "The Taiwei Mansion is powerful, even I will avoid the attack for the time being. We can only find another way and stabilize our strength."

Qin Lei knew that the prince had something to do, so he stopped talking and listened quietly to the prince's speech.

"Since your bow camp's troubled by the Golden Palace, the fourth brother began to jump up and down, wanting to snatch your job." The prince chuckled and said, "I heard you told me at that time. I have also discussed it with someone. The conclusion is similar. The Ministry of Revenue is indeed a black hole, and anyone who goes there will have to fall in."

Qin Lei said "yes" and said softly: "It's true."

The prince continued, "The fourth brother is willing to go, so let's ask him to go. Let's just pull out." Then, he lowered his voice and said, "There are several important officials in the imperial study room these days, and they are discussing a major event."

Qin Lei had no choice but to make fun of him: "What's the big deal?"

The prince said mysteriously: "The new yamen that the court wants to form is said to be at the lowest level of the temple, and may even be at the level of the department. It is much more important than originally estimated."

Qin Lei was no longer Bai Ding when he first came to Guidi. He knew how important it was to add an institution above a temple, and how many forces would snatch the face. He said quietly: "Only managing military information is enough, the first level of the department is enough."

The prince chuckled and said, "It is logical that this is true, but the Prime Minister believes that the imperial secret spies system is chaotic, each department has its own systems, the institutions are seriously overlapping, and the efficiency is also very low. Therefore, he suggested that the commission institute be transferred to the department, at least at the temple level, to summarize the secret spies in the world and to control internal and external intelligence. In this way, the requirements of each department are summarized together and handled by this institute. Not only is it much more efficient, it can also save a lot of money for the court."

Qin Lei thought to himself, how could it be so ideal. He said softly: "Second brother, the information is the best. No one dares to give up easily and leave it to others for responsibility. I think Prime Minister Wen, a person who can compete with the Taiwei, would not be so naive. It must be that the drunken man's intention is not to drink."

The prince nodded and smiled, "Those who care about the Taiwei." He patted Qin Lei on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "It is rare that you have such an understanding of intelligence at such a young age. Yes, Prime Minister Wen is the most wise man in our dynasty, so how could Meng Lang act? But if he only adds a Military Information Department, he will definitely be affiliated with the Taiwei's Mansion, and the least is the Ministry of War. He will not do such a cheap enemy."

Qin Lei chuckled and continued, "So he wanted to create a huge thing that made Li Hun unable to eat, but he was still jealous."

The prince said with a sarcastic look on his face: "What kind of wise ministers and good generals have been in turmoil for decades, and they have long become a group of worms who only know how to compete for fame and fortune." His tone became more and more indignant.

Qin Lei knew that this master had long regarded the world as his own, so he did not care about others for personal gain. However, he understood the Grand Marshal and Prime Minister. If he did not make plans or fight, how would the thousands of officials under his disciples survive? What did he think?

Uncle Li once said: "If the people are dispersed, the team is not easy to lead." Just to capture the hearts of his subordinates, these two giants who have no promotion and no rewards must continue to fight.

Qin Lei took back his thoughts and asked, "What is the attitude of the father?"

The prince pondered: "The father has never expressed his opinion, but he seems to be more inclined to the Prime Minister. Now the two sides are fighting hard, and they will probably get half of each in the end."

Qin Lei shook his head and said in a deep voice: "We also want one this time."
