Chapter 667

           Each person has his own scheming

After seeing Li Yu come back, he was sitting on the chair in a daze, holding a memorial in his hand. Zike walked up in confusion and asked, "Do you have something to worry about?"

Li Yu handed the memorial in his hand to Zi Ke and said, "Look at it!"

Zike took the memorial and looked carefully.

After seeing it, Zi Kou slowly put down the memorial, pushed it to Li Yu, and asked, "Is this memorial written by Duke Zhenguo?"

"right."

Zike smiled and said confidently: "Duke Zhenguo must have told Your Highness that you can build three provinces and six ministries as soon as possible, so that you can greatly share your highness's official duties!"

Li Yu's eyes flashed and he looked at Zike in surprise.

Could it be that you were hiding in the dark and eavesdropping on it?

Seeing Li Yu's suspicion, Zike smiled and said, "Actually, I have always been very strange. Why did Shangshu Du suddenly stuff so many memorials into His Highness today? Now, I understand!"

"What do you understand?"

"Shu Du is paving the way for this memorial from Duke Zhenguo!"

When Li Yu heard this, his heart suddenly moved.

Zike said happily: "State Du made His Highness dizzy first, and then Duke Zhenguo submitted such a memorial. If His Highness wanted to save trouble and approved this memorial, then all the three provinces and six ministries would be trusted by Duke Zhenguo. By then, Duke Zhenguo would not only be powerful in the court and the country, but also the Supreme Emperor!"

Speaking of this, she seemed to suddenly realize that she had lost her words. She hurriedly raised three slender jade fingers, covered her lips, looked at Li Yu pitifully, and whispered: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, you are a maid who speaks without saying anything!"

You did it on purpose!

Li Yu gave her a blank look, but whether Zi Kou did it on purpose or not, what she said was true.

Just as Li Yu was silent and his mind flew around, Huang Zhao walked in, intervened and bowed to Li Yu, and said, "Your Highness!"

"explain!"

"Shen You, Shangshu Shen, please see him!"

Okay! Another one comes!

Li Yu couldn't help laughing and asked, "Did Shangshu Shen also bring two followers, holding a thick stack of memorials?"

Huang Zhao was stunned and shook his head and said, "I... I didn't see Shen Shangshu's entourage bringing memorials!"

Li Yu shrugged and waved his hand and said, "Let him come in!"

"Yes! Your Highness!"

Huang Zhao agreed and turned around and walked out.

It didn't take long, Shen You followed Huang Zhao into the outside.

When he saw Li Yu, Shen You intervened and said, "Your Highness!"

Li Yu looked at Shen You and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Shangshu Shen?"

Shen You pondered for a moment and said, "I have something to report!"

"speak."

Shen You lowered his head, and wanted to speak but stopped.

Li Yu asked with a smile: "What else is there? Is it something that Shangshu Shen can't say?"

Shen You made up his mind, raised his head, and said to Li Yu seriously: "Your Highness, I think Duke Jing is not suitable for being the Secretary of the Central Secretariat!"

Li Yu frowned secretly, his expression was quiet, and he just said lightly, and asked, "Why did Shangshu Shen say that?"

You are Tao Yuan’s confidant.

Now Tao Yuan recommends Duke of Jingguo Zhang Yuan as the Secretary of the Central Secretariat, but you came to me and told me that Zhang Yuan is not suitable.

Which one did you sing for me?

Shen You said seriously: "Your Highness, Duke Jing is able to recruit military generals who are used to fighting, while the Secretariat is concerned about national policies and the style of the cattle and horses are not in harmony. Therefore, I think Duke Jing is not suitable for the Secretariat!"

Responsibilities of the three provinces.

The Secretariat of the Secretariat is responsible for formulating national policies, and the Menxia Province is responsible for reviewing national policies. After they are approved, they will be handed over to the Secretariat of the Secretariat for implementation.

It can be said that the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat is the highest institution for formulating national policies.

As the highest commander of the Secretariat, can the Secretariat be appointed by a warrior who only knows how to fight?

In Shen You's opinion, this matter is just a nonsense, and treats national affairs as a joke.

Li Yu looked at Chen You, and for a moment, he could not tell whether Chen You said this out of sincerity or intentional testing himself.

He thought for a while and asked, "So, Shangshu Chen thinks it is most appropriate for who is the Central Secretariat?"

Chen You didn't even think about it and immediately said, "I dared to recommend Jing Yu, the governor of Jingzhou!"

He took a deep breath and said, "The governor of Jingzhou is upright and talented, outstanding in ability. He is qualified to serve as the Secretary of the Central Committee!"

Li Yu looked at Chen You in a flash. After a long time, he nodded slowly.

He stood up, walked around the table, walked to Chen You near, and said, "Shangshu Chen!"

"I'm here!"

"Do you know that Duke Jingguo is the first to choose the Secretariat recommended by Duke Zhenguo!"

"I know!"

"Do you know that the Duke of Zhenguo and the governor of Jingzhou have long-standing grudges!"

"I know!"

"Since that's the case, why do you still recommend the Jingzhou Mu to be the Secretary of the Central Secretariat?"

Chen You looked at Li Yu and said word by word: "Your Highness, my uncle is a minister of the Great Zhou, not a minister of the Duke of Zhenguo!"

His words really touched Li Yu.

Although Chen You was invited by Tao Yuan to Qinzhou, Chen You is a national scholar.

He nodded and sighed: "Shangshu Chen said this well. It is a blessing for the country to have ministers like Shangshu Chen!"

Chen You shook his body, and he quickly bowed and said, "Your Highness will destroy the empress!"

Next, Li Yu learned about the situation of the Ministry of Personnel from Chen You, and then Chen You said goodbye and left.

After Chen You left, Li Yu immediately smiled and said to Zi Kou: "See it. Among the people recommended by Mr. Tao, there are also people who are not favored but only for the public!"

Zike smiled and said, "Your Highness, don't think too simple!"

"oh?"

"Maybe, this Secretary of Shangshu Chen is much more complicated than what His Highness thinks!"

"Why did you say this?"

"Shangshen Chen came to tell His Highness about this, how could His Highness know that Shangshen was not paving a path for him to rise to the top?"

Li Yu raised his eyebrows.

Zike continued: "A very simple truth is it better to be the confidant of the minister of Duke Zhenguo, or to be the confidant of His Highness, the master?"

Li Yu looked at Zi Kou blankly. After a while, he shook his head and said, "You are a conspiracy theory! You think too complicatedly!"

"Your Highness thinks people too simply! From now on, there will only be more and more people around you, all kinds of people."

Although Li Yu did not proclaim himself emperor, he formed an imperial court in Qinzhou.

This involves real power.

In the future, there will only be more and more people coming to join Li Yu, but at the same time, there will also be more and more people with various ghost thoughts.

Li Yu and Zi Ke looked at each other for a moment. He sat back on the chair, sighed softly, and said, "I really can't figure it out. Everyone is rushing to be emperors, but what's the point of being emperors?"

All around me are treacherous and conspiring.

Zike said meaningfully: "When someone is willing to spend his thoughts on His Highness, your Highness should feel glad. This means that your Highness is useful. When no one is willing to spend his thoughts on His Highness, that is the most tragic thing."

It means you're just a waste.
