!”

The emperor was immediately stunned and silent.

"Why didn't your Majesty say a word?" Qiao Xuan raised his head and asked.

"Why……"

"Does your Majesty think that my qualifications and morals are not enough to shoulder this important task?"

"A famous minister in the Qing Dynasty bears the hope of the world..."

"Then why is Your Majesty hesitant and uncommitted?" Qiao Xuan asked angrily. "On that day, when Your Majesty was young, he summoned me to Luo to worship him as Taiwei. I was originally going to refuse because I was old. It was His Majesty who said in his decree that the imperial court is upright.

We need loyal and good people like me, and because of your Majesty's sincerity, I left my hometown and came to Luo in spite of my old age and illness. But now that your Majesty is in charge, I would rather appoint people like Wang Fu and Zhang Hao to be in charge of the government, so I took the initiative to ask for a chancellor.

It’s just an order, but His Majesty is not even willing to give me a few months. It’s useless to let me try my own skills... Could it be that this is His Majesty’s sincerity?

Just want to use the minister as a wood carving for the court?"

The emperor blushed when he was questioned. He had no choice but to ask for help. However, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, who he relied on most, also had helpless expressions on their faces. Instead, they all signaled him to surrender, so the emperor had to go down the steps and help him up in person.

This famous minister on earth.

"What are you talking about?" The emperor supported Qiao Xuan and Empress Dowager responded nicely. "With your qualifications, morals, and achievements, not only is it just a trial order for several months, but it is also a direct request for Situ who has just been vacated.

It is natural for you to take the position... In fact, I wish that you would take up a real position to share my worries! I was surprised just now, but I never thought that you would take the initiative to apply for a job at such an age!"

Qiao Xuan nodded slightly, and was about to thank him when he saw the emperor sighing again: "Well, I originally wanted Yuan Qing, the captain of Changshui School, to be the disciple, but I didn't expect him to be so unlucky... That's good, please."

Go back and make some preparations. Tomorrow I will appoint you as Situ and take charge of the affairs of the Secretariat!"

Qiao Xuan held his head high and bowed his hands to express his gratitude, as if it was a matter of course.

And that's not all, Qiao Xuan said goodbye and went back, and the emperor asked several of the regular servants present to go out together to take the old man out of the palace on his behalf. This was the end of the matter.

By the way, Gongsun Xun, who was far away at Qiao Xuan's home, naturally did not think that the old man could not secure the position of Shangshu Ling, but he was still quite impressed after learning that he came back so quickly.

"Brother Meng De...let's put aside the anecdotes about my brother Cao Hong for now." Pointing to the many empty wine bottles on the side, Gongsun Xun couldn't help but stand up with a smile. "Mr. Qiao returned home, and you and I stole other people's wine.

It's a good idea not to go and greet him."

Cao Cao laughed, but he quickly stood up, and then the two of them helped each other and walked down from the attic.

It was dusk at this time, and the light and shadow were dancing. When passing by downstairs, Cao Cao suddenly raised his finger and pointed at the attic window, then squinted and smiled: "I felt something wrong with the shadow of the window when I was upstairs. Could it be that that arrow was...

Wen Qi shot it before?"

Gongsun Xun also smiled when he saw this: "We are drinking here, and the people who are harmed have not had time to pull out the arrow."

Under the setting sun, Cao Cao couldn't help but shake his head: "Wen Qi said that he was born in a border area, but I'm afraid you don't know that I, Cao Mengde, am extremely envious of your style, killing thieves while talking and laughing, running wild... Forget it, don't say it.

Well, Wen Qi’s arrow is really a masterstroke!”

Gongsun Xun's face became more and more cheerful, but in his heart he remembered the kidnapping at noon... In other words, at that moment, he took the opportunity to shoot Wei Wuzhi to death with random arrows.

However, firstly, he did not want to hurt innocent children; secondly, people are talkative, and although they are both white, Cao Mengde is not comparable to Xia Yu, and his own righteousness may never be kept secret; thirdly, he had that idea

Finally, I felt a sense of alarm. After all, I was going to separate Liaoxi and sit back and watch the success or failure as my mother said. If so, why did I have such murderous intentions?

Of course, at this moment, Gongsun Xun didn't even have the slightest intention to kill... because he had already determined that Cao Mengde was in extreme despair at this moment, and he had no need to be afraid.

The two of them were half really drunk and half self-drunk. They supported each other and walked to the door. They happened to meet Qiao Xuan who was returning home.

Qiao Xuan looked at the two of them, but his expression suddenly changed: "Are the few bottles of wine in my house gone?!"

Cao Cao nodded like he was talking: "At first, I only stole half of the unfinished bottle from last time. Later, Wen Qi and I were appraising the young handsome man. We chatted so much that we couldn't help but steal the few unopened bottles from Qiao Gong.

The wine was also opened..."

"Get out of here!" Qiao Xuan immediately became furious. "The three thieves have not caused any loss to my family, but you two who caught the thieves have bankrupted my family!"

The two of them were not angry, but laughed, and then continued to support each other to walk out, and kept discussing who and where they should go next to continue drinking.

But at this moment, Qiao Xuan suddenly called out to one of them: "Meng De will go first. I have to fulfill my appointment as minister tomorrow and was about to discuss an official matter with Wen Qi..."

Cao Cao couldn't help but laugh, and immediately handed him over and left.

Although it was said to be official business, in fact, Qiao Xuan just explained his situation, bluntly stated that his ministerial order was not secure, and then formally urged Gongsun Xun to start quickly... He finished speaking in a moment.

Gongsun Xun naturally agreed to this, and then went to chase Cao Cao and continue drinking together.

However, just after taking two steps, facing the setting sun, he suddenly turned back and called Qiao Xuan again: "Mr. Qiao, I just have something to ask you."

Qiao Xuan turned around without taking it seriously: "If you have something to say, tell me quickly."

"If the eunuch execution is successful, then in the heart of Mr. Qiao, who is better than Meng De?" Gongsun Xun was obviously drunk.

Qiao Xuan thought for a moment, then flicked his sleeves and went straight back to his house: "I want to see my son. It's such a small matter. If the execution is successful, you can come and ask again!"

Gongsun Xun couldn't help but laugh.

Three thieves armed themselves with weapons and robbed Xuan's youngest son. They went upstairs to ask for goods.

He shot him and died in front of him. The remaining thief was so frightened that he opened the building and came down. Xuan's youngest son was also safe. As soon as he came out, Cao Cao sighed and said: "Bandang knows heroes, but Wenqi is brave and brave. There are ancient famous generals."
