After the general is bound to the demon concubine system

Li Sijiu stood next to Yu Xiujin, and Prince Jing sat opposite. The two of them held a pen and paper in their hands, and asked from time to time, "What word is this?"

Li Sijiu bent down and squinted his eyes to carefully identify the lumps of words on the paper: "This word is 'win-win', this word is 'reform'... this is a bit difficult to read, let me see... oh, I Got it, this is not a word, this is just a comma..."

Whenever he recognized a word, Yu Xiujin and Yu Yanli would pick up a pen and mark next to the word, as if Li Sijiu was dictating the word for them.

Yu Yanli picked up a pen to mark a word again, the expression on his face became more and more weird, Li Sijiu glanced at him, and said helplessly: "Prince Jing can laugh if he wants to."

Don't make trouble.

Li Sijiu's words seemed to have turned on the switch for Yu Yanli. He couldn't hold back his smile anymore, he quickly covered the lower half of his cheek with his sleeve, and pleaded guilty to Yu Xiujin: "Your Majesty, I just feel like I'm back in my hometown." When I was studying in Taixue, my husband at that time also taught me word by word."

The corner of Yu Xiujin's lips couldn't help showing a smile, he was probably afraid of Li Sijiu's sadness, so he put his hand on the back of his hand: "Ah Jiu can write, it's already very good."

Li Sijiu: ...

Li Sijiu heard these words, as if Li Sijiu couldn't memorize the multiplication table when he was in elementary school, his father touched his head to comfort him: "It's okay, at least your limbs are sound."

Li Sijiu admitted that his handwriting was indeed a bit ugly, but he felt that there were some objective factors in it;

Li Sijiu basically didn't write much after he went to university, and he didn't need to write much after he came here. It wasn't until he became a general two years ago that he had the opportunity to pick up a pen and exchange a few letters with Yu Xiujin.So writing has become a very unfamiliar skill for Li Sijiu.

Yesterday he copied political books to the end, his arms were sore and tired, and the brush fell on the paper, and it immediately turned into a ball. He said he was writing, but it was more like brushing mutton skewers with sauce.

But that doesn't mean he can't write, okay?

What made Li Sijiu most angry was the system prompt that suddenly popped up in his head: [Favorite value +10! 】

...not harmful, but extremely insulting.

Yu Xiujin said: "Ah Jiu can go back to Jintu Palace first, and I will come to see you later."

Although Li Sijiu really wanted to stay and discuss with them, he also knew that things should be done step by step, so he turned and left with a "hmm".

After Li Sijiu left, Yu Xiujin and Yu Yanli held the paper full of notes in their hands, and looked at it intently, sometimes frowning, sometimes smiling, and sometimes amazed.

Yu Yanli seemed to think of something suddenly, put the paper on the table, frowned and asked Yu Xiujin: "Your Majesty, Li Sijiu was able to come up with so many plans in just one night, which shows how fast his brain is and how deep his thoughts are... ...I feel that the emperor must never discuss government affairs with Li Sijiu again."

Yu Xiujin was still looking down at the paper in his hand, and when he heard what Yu Yanli said, his expression didn't change, he just let out an "oh" and asked inexplicably, "Then uncle thinks, who should I discuss with?"

Yu Yanli was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't understand what Yu Xiujin meant. Seeing his expressionless face, he thought he had offended him, so he hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Your majesty... I just..."

Yu Xiujin raised his hand and stopped Yu Yanli's movements: "I know your concerns, but besides the emperor, I have no one I can use."

When the first emperor passed away, he also left usable talents for Yu Xiujin, but the first emperor left too early, and ten years had passed by the time Yu Xiujin came to power, and the people left behind were either sick or dead. No one can be of his use.

The court has already formed a whole in the past ten years. Yu Xiujin is clearly the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but to the ministers, Yu Xiujin is the outsider. The soonest, after the big exam next year, Yu Xiujin In order to get a group of people who are really used by him.

Before that, the only person he could use was Yu Yanli, which was why he would take the risk to ask Li Sijiu about state affairs.

Yu Yanli made a long bow: "I will definitely advise the emperor and solve problems."

Yu Xiujin's eyes flickered, and after a while, he nodded slightly.

When Yu Yanli came out from the Hall of Mental Cultivation, two people greeted him immediately. The two were about 20 years old and of extremely high stature. It was surprising that the two had exactly the same handsome appearance.

These two are servants who have been serving by Yu Yanli's side all the time, they are a pair of twins.The elder brother is called A Xiao, and the younger brother is called A Da. I heard from them that it is because their parents want to teach them the truth that "the one who arrives first is not necessarily a good thing, and the one who arrives later is not necessarily a bad thing".

Seeing Yu Yanli, Ah Da and Ah Xiao said in unison: "Third Lord."

Yu Yanli nodded slightly, and walked in the direction of Dongchangmen. Ada and Axiao followed behind Yu Yanli, looked at each other, and suddenly asked in unison: "What happy things happened to the third master today?"

Although Yu Yanli usually had a warm smile on his face, today's smile was even bigger than usual, which made Ah Da and Ah Xiao involuntarily curious.

Hearing their question, Yu Yanli stopped in his tracks, smiled with his hands behind his back, "I didn't encounter any happy things, just encountered some funny things."

In the evening, when Yu Xiujin came to Jintu Palace, he didn't ask Chang Shunhai to inform him, and walked in familiarly.

When I saw the scene inside the house clearly, I was shocked in my heart.

Li Sijiu was sitting in front of the table with his cheeks propped up, the dim and flickering candlelight would illuminate his cheeks from time to time, he seemed to be thinking about something, the corners of his bright red lips were curled up, his eyes flickered slightly, and his face was full of light. It is coquettish and gorgeous.

The system reminded him in his mind: [Little Emperor, here we come! 】

Li Sijiu came back to his senses suddenly, and he saw Yu Xiujin standing at the door.

He hurriedly said: "The emperor is here."

Yu Xiujin gathered himself together, and said "hmm".He asked tentatively, "What is Ah Jiu thinking about?"

After hearing his words, Li Sijiu laughed instead, "I'm not thinking about anything, I'm just in a daze."

After returning from the Hall of Mental Cultivation today, Li Sijiu copied more than a dozen pages of notes for Yu Xiujin, but he didn't expect that mental labor was far more tiring than physical labor. Sit and rest.

Li Sijiu seemed surprised by Yu Xiujin's answer when he saw Yu Xiujin's answer, and said with a smile: "Is it like I'm thinking about something like this? This is the habit that I developed when I was studying at school... , as long as you put on such a posture, the master will not feel that you are distracted, but that you are thinking seriously, and the students in Chen's hometown all have this skill."

Putting on this frightening appearance...is he just in a daze?

Li Sijiu suddenly remembered something and asked, "Your Majesty, when will the Eastern Japanese envoy arrive?"

Yu Xiujin replied: "I received the news today that they have already set off for a few days, maybe in three or five days, they should arrive in the capital, why?"

Li Sijiu was surprised and said, "It's only three or five days away? Could it be that the emperor wants to draw up the 'alliance' policy mentioned by the minister and tell them before they come?"

Then his hand must be useless...

Yu Xiujin was stunned, and smiled: "Of course not, and not everyone is as smart as Ah Jiu, who can come up with many methods overnight. I asked them to come here, just to test their attitude first. If they are loose, That's the best."

Yu Xiujin said: "As for the matter of forming an alliance...it will take a year and a half until it takes shape, so there is no rush."

Li Sijiu half-understood what he heard, but he was relieved when he understood the word "no hurry".

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and the envoys from the East Japan had already arrived in the capital. Yu Xiujin held a grand reception banquet for them, and the courtiers, concubines, and the queen mother all attended.

Amidst the shouts of long live from the officials, Yu Xiujin was wearing a yellow robe that was many times more complicated and noble than usual, and was sitting on the head with an imperial crown on his head. On the other side, because Li Sijiu didn't have a title, he sat at the end.

As soon as Li Sijiu appeared on the stage, almost everyone looked at him. The courtiers all wanted to know what Li Sijiu was thinking and why he suddenly entered the harem, but Li Sijiu didn't even look at them , just looked at the Dongwa envoys with a smile.

Li Sijiu had never had a good impression of the Eastern Japanese people, but to his surprise, the attitude of the Eastern Japanese envoys who came this time was very good, and they treated Yu Xiujin very respectfully, even to the point of flattery. To the point, without the slightest airs.Li Sijiu stared at them tentatively for a while, until the Dongwa envoy stared back at him several times, then looked away.

The Ministry of Rites prepared songs, dances and other programs for the envoys of the Eastern Japan, and Li Zhaoyi also played a tune for them.

After the reception banquet was over, Yu Xiujin, Yu Yanli, and several courtiers received the envoys from the East Japan. After listening to them talk for a long time, I realized why the envoys from the East Japan were so good today——

It turned out that they refused to admit defeat and harassed the border army a few days ago. The deputy general remembered what Li Sijiu had said before he left: "If they are not honest, beat them!" After giving them a meal, it made them so obedient.

Unexpectedly, it was because of Li Sijiu... Such a coincidence always made Yu Xiujin feel like laughing.

Since Dongwa intends to compromise, it is a surprise to Yu Xiujin, which also proves that he will have more time to consider the alliance plan.

Yu Xiujin just relaxed, but he received Chengshan's memorial the next day. Yu Xiujin thought it was because his subjects were dissatisfied with Dongwa's request for peace, but when he opened it, he was stunned.

"I watched Li Sijiu at the banquet yesterday with flickering eyes and deep scheming. Maybe he was in collusion with the Eastern Japanese envoy! I hope the emperor will find out!"

Of the more than 60 memorials, more than [-] were criticizing Li Sijiu's performance at the banquet yesterday.

Yu Xiujin blankly recalled Li Sijiu's performance at the banquet yesterday——

Yesterday he glanced at Li Sijiu several times, and saw that he was resting his chin on his hands, squinting his long eyes, curling the corners of his lips, looking thoughtful.

That appearance was indeed a little scary, but it was Li Sijiu's appearance when he was in a daze.
