Xu Yun's idea successfully gave him another job.

If you don't do it well, it will be a job that will be infamous for eternity.

But Xu Yun himself didn't care much about it.

On the contrary, Luo Li was silent for a long time after listening to it: "Ah Yun, sometimes, you should cherish your reputation a little more."

Xu Yun waved his hand: "Now that things have come to that, if I don't say anything, His Majesty will keep looking at me, and I can't stand it."

Luo Li was silent for a while, then suddenly said softly: "You said, is it true that Your Majesty has not thought of this? Your Majesties——"

Xu Yun was silent for a while: "I may not have thought of this, but there may be other things. It just needs others to say it and do it."

What Luo Li really wanted to express was not to question the abilities of Your Majesty, but to ask whether Xu Yun was used as a gun by Your Majesty.

She was afraid that Xu Yun would not have a good ending.

Xu Yun said softly, "Among all the civil and military officials in the court, everyone is a gun or chess piece in the hands of His Majesty."

A useless chess piece and a broken gun that can no longer be used will ultimately have only one fate.

Luo Li was speechless for a moment.

Xu Yun smiled and said, "However, this way, the war can end early, which is also a good thing. After all, the merchants in China really can't make any money."

China is now in a period of development. If we want to have a future, we must not do anything extreme at this time and lose the support of the people.

Is the dispute between the North and the South just about land?

No, there is also the people’s will.

Only with the support of the people can we build an immortal foundation.

After hearing this, Luo Li didn't know what to say.

Finally, he just said: "I'll accompany you."

Xu Yun thanked Luo Li, but only let Luo Li continue to preside over the affairs of the Inspection Department, and did not take Luo Li with him to do this matter.

Because of this matter, Xu Yun and Xiao Zheyue had more and more contact with each other.

Xiao Zheyue was actually a really good person. It was just because of his background that he often seemed not so friendly, but rather a bit aloof and arrogant.

Xu Yun knew that Xiao Zheyue was an excellent writer.

but……

Xiao Zheyue was not in a good mood. Xu Yun asked about it and found out that she was engaged to Gao Xu.

Gao Xu…now manages the Industry and Commerce Bureau and the Taxation Bureau, and is still a popular young official. Xu Yun thinks he can’t compare.

Upon learning that the two were engaged, Xu Yun was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help asking: "Is it your family's idea, or are you just -" in love?

Xiao Zheyue said expressionlessly: "It's the family's intention."

Both the Gao family and the Xiao family were aware of the suppression of the aristocratic families by their majesties, so they wanted to join hands.

After the two families discussed, they both felt that only Xiao Zheyue was worthy of Gao Xu's status.

In fact, both of them were close ministers to the emperor.

Listening to Xiao Zheyue's tone, Xu Yun knew that Xiao Zheyue might be somewhat unwilling.

I was speechless for a moment.

Finally, she asked, "What do you and Gao Xu mean?"

Xiao Zheyue was silent for a moment: "For Gao Xu, it doesn't matter who it is from the Xiao family. What matters is whether it can bring him help."

Could there be any feelings between Gao Xu and her?

Xu Yun understood what Xiao Zheyue meant. After a long silence, he asked with difficulty, "What does your majesty mean?"

Your Majesties should know better than anyone else the purpose of marriages between aristocratic families.

Your Majesties are also most aware of the consequences.

So, Your Majesty may not agree.

Xiao Zheyue said softly: "Marriages between noble families have always been a common practice. Your Majesty is in no position to stop it."

You can't be the emperor and have to control all matters related to marriage, right?

She knew the difficulty of His Majesty, so she never asked His Majesty or begged His Majesty.

Xu Yun gave her some advice: "I am also unmarried, so I can't give you better advice. But your majesty has been married for so many years, raised children together, and is so loving, so maybe I can give you the most appropriate advice."

It’s better to ask than not to ask.

Even if it is of no use in the end, it is not a missed opportunity.

Xiao Zheyue laughed: "Okay."

Then, Xiao Zheyue suddenly asked Xu Yun: "What about you? Do you know General Luo——"

Xu Yun lowered his eyes: "I know. He is very special to me. He is exceptionally good to me."

Xiao Zheyue couldn't say what was in his mind. It was stuck there, making him feel a little uncomfortable.

Xu Yun knew what Xiao Zheyue wanted to ask, and said softly: "I just want to be a good official."

As for other things, I haven’t thought about it, and there’s no need to think about it.

Xiao Zheyue smiled and said, "You really have a heart as solid as a rock."

Xu Yun smiled and said, "People must know what they want in order to live a good life."

Xiao Zheyue looked at Xu Yun, but couldn't smile anymore. He felt more and more disappointed.

But soon, she ran out of time.

Ten thousand gold coins are basically gold cakes.

It was piled there, a truly spectacular and shocking sight.

No matter how noble Xiao Zheyue was, he couldn't help but remain silent when he saw the pile of gold.

Then, she learned it on her own: "Why not just pile it up in the library, with the questions."

Anyone who comes to read the title can naturally see the gold at a glance.

It’s shocking just to think about it.

Xu Yun also thought it was a good idea. She had been planning to do so, so she only mentioned one thing: "Have someone guard it. Guard it day and night. Make sure no one takes it away."

Xiao Zheyue nodded repeatedly: "Arrange forty people to guard it day and night in shifts. Besides, this place is close to the imperial palace, so no one should dare to have any bad intentions."

Xu Yun also felt so.

At this point, the job was almost done. At least her part of the work was basically done.

Xu Yun thought that he hadn't had a day off for a month, so he might as well take this opportunity to rest for two days.

It's natural to be happy to take a break.

But Xu Yun's happiness didn't last long, because when she returned home, she saw someone she never wanted to see in her life.

Xu Sanlang.

Xu Sanlang came with his concubines and illegitimate sons and daughters.

Ever since he was disliked and almost expelled by the Xu family, Xu Sanlang thought about it and decided to come to China to find Xu Yun.

According to Xu Sanlang's idea: Xu Yun is his daughter, he came in person, can Xu Yun still dare to treat her like someone he sent? A filial piety pressure, she must be obedient!

Xu Sanlang even thought about how to control Xu Yun.

Doesn’t Xu Yun want to be an official?

If you are an official, a good reputation is very important.

So, Xu Sanlang showed up at Xu Yun's door. Unfortunately, Xu Yun was not at home, only Xie Wanqing and Hongyu were at home.

When the two heard who was coming, they didn't even come out, but said they had recognized the wrong person and asked Xu Sanlang to leave quickly.

That means I don't want to see him at all.

Xu Sanlang was furious and refused to leave the gate. Instead, he started to make a scene, saying that Xu Yun was his daughter and should take care of him. That was Xie Wanqing, who was also his wife.
