If I can't breathe through my mouth and nose, I can definitely wake up, right?

But Ren Hao was quite good at holding his breath. Su Wan'er held his breath for more than a minute, but Ren Hao didn't wake up.

Su Wan'er was afraid that if she continued to cover Ren Hao, he would really be suffocated to death, so she had to give up using the second trick that Ren Hao gave her.

But when Su Wan'er thought of the second method, she couldn't help but blush.

How can there be such an embarrassing way to wake someone up?

Su Wan'er hesitated and felt embarrassed, but when she thought about the fact that Ren Hao had to attend the morning court, she decided to go for it.

She leaned over, closed her eyes shyly, and got into the bed.

……

About ten minutes later, Su Wan'er lifted the quilt, covered her mouth and ran out.

Ren Hao opened his eyes at this time.

He didn't feel sleepy at all at this moment, he just felt his brain was clear.

After all, how does that saying go?

The time when a man is most clear-headed is the sage moment now.

Adhering to the law of the wise, Ren Hao simply washed up without wasting a moment, and then went to the stable to ask Zhang Tong to prepare the car.

He is going to the palace for the morning court.

Before Zhang Tong could say anything, Su Ergou, who was standing next to him, ran out and shouted, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, let me help you drive the carriage today."

"You?" Ren Hao looked at Su Ergou with a questioning look. He was really afraid that this guy would drive the carriage into the ditch.

"Master, let him drive the carriage for you today, and I will guide the way."

"His driving skills are already quite proficient." Zhang Tong spoke for Su Ergou and realized that Su Ergou wanted to please Ren Hao.

Since Zhang Tong had spoken, Ren Hao nodded reluctantly: "Okay then."

"Brother-in-law, oh no."

"Yes, Lord Sikong, please get in the car." Su Ergou quickly changed his words, squatted down with a smile on his face, turned his back to Ren Hao, and let Ren Hao step on his back to get in the car.

After Ren Hao got in the car, Su Ergou drove towards the Weiyang Palace according to Zhang Tong's instructions.

Although Su Ergou's driving skills are not as skilled as Zhang Tong's, he can at least be considered a groom.

When Su Ergou was about to drive to Weiyang Palace, Zhang Tong took the reins and whip from Su Ergou.

After all, the roads outside the palace were crowded and filled with horse-drawn carriages, and Su Ergou's current driving skills were not enough for it.

If there was any mistake and he bumped into any minister, it would cause trouble for Ren Hao.

"Lord Sikong." Su Er sat next to Ren Hao happily.

"What's wrong?" Ren Hao opened his eyes, his face full of undisguised disgust. If you have to fart, just do it now.

"Lord Sikong, I... I saw you were recruiting officials for the Ministry of Revenue yesterday. Can I... can I also go in and get a half-official position?" Su Ergou stated his purpose with a grin.

But he was afraid that Ren Hao would not agree, so he went on to explain: "I don't want to be a high-ranking official, I just want to be a clerk who runs errands and pours tea."

"Oh, no wonder you are so attentive so early in the morning, it turns out you are planning this." Ren Hao curled his lips, feeling extremely disappointed.

He thought Su Ergou had really turned over a new leaf, but the result was still the same.

Su Ergou didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at all, and laughed and said, "Master Sikong, as long as you can give me a job as a minor official, I will be willing to work like a slave for you in my next life, not to mention this life!!!"

Looking at Su Ergou's sincere expression, Ren Hao was complaining in his heart at this moment.

I've had enough of having a useless relative like you.

Is there a next life?

Please have mercy on me and spare me.

After Ren Hao finished complaining secretly, he asked Su Ergou: "Do you know numbers?"

"I don't know him." Su Ergou shook his head without any concealment.

"You don't even know the most basic numbers. I just want you to be a minor official, but you're not up to the task." Ren Hao found a reason to decline. This was also for Su Wan'er's sake to save some face for Su Ergou and to give each other a way out.

But Su Ergou had no face at all, and said shamelessly: "Brother-in-law, you are the Minister of Revenue. I know you are a high-ranking official, below the Three Dukes and above the Nine Ministers."

"As such a high-ranking official, it would be easy for you to assign me a minor clerk. Just treat me as a dog by your side." Su Ergou gestured with a shameless look.

Anyway, his name is Ergou, so it’s no big deal if he’s just a dog official.

"Then you just wait patiently!!!" Ren Hao jumped out of the car angrily, waving his sleeves, not bothering to pay attention to Su Ergou.

He had seen shameless people, but he had never seen anyone as shameless as this.

Wait?

Su Ergou didn't understand what he meant and mistakenly thought that Ren Hao was really going to give him an official position. He immediately jumped out of the car and knelt down in front of Ren Hao: "Thank you, Lord Sikong, for your appreciation. From now on, I will be your dog."

Su Ergou's kneeling was immediately laughed at and pointed at by the minor officials passing by.

But Su Ergou didn't take it seriously at all, and even ridiculed them, saying that these petty officials knew nothing. You have the face and dignity, but don't you see that you are still hanging around in the eighth or ninth grade at your age.

By the time he serves Lord Sikong well, any official position you give him will definitely be higher than yours.

Zhang Tong, who was standing next to him, looked at Su Ergou who seemed to be daydreaming and shook his head helplessly.

But in the end, he did not point out Su Ergou's fantasy.

After all, Su Ergou is a relative of Ren Hao. If Ren Hao is happy in the future, he might really appoint him to an official position. That is very possible.

"Brother Zhang, when I follow my brother-in-law to Feiteng Huangda in the future, don't worry, I will never forget you."

"When the time comes, I will definitely give you a high position."

While Su Ergou was daydreaming about making promises to Zhang Tong, Ren Hao was stopped by a shout just as he arrived at the door of Linde Hall.

The visitor was Chen Lang, who came with a group of officials from the Ministry of Revenue.

In the morning, Chen Lang learned from other ministers that Ren Hao was recruiting officials from the Ministry of Revenue. He immediately summoned all the officials of the Ministry of Revenue to ask Ren Hao for an explanation.

Originally, he wanted to ask the old minister to come together, but the old minister was ill in bed and unable to attend the court early, so he had to take the lead.

"Ren Hao, you dare to recruit officials from the Ministry of Revenue privately. Where do you put me and the old minister?"

"You are so bold and arrogant, you are going too far!!!"

The officials of the Ministry of Revenue, led by Chen Lang, all began to blame Ren Hao.

When the ministers from the other five ministries heard the commotion here, they all watched Chen Lang and the others quarreling with Ren Hao with an attitude of watching bystanders.

"Hehe, you really are the villain who complains first."

"When you said I was too bullying, why didn't you think about how you bullied me?"

"When you took out the old household registration and showed it to us, didn't you consider the consequences?" Ren Hao sneered.
