Fish swimming around the world

How could Meng Tian not say anything? He glanced at the ancestor and said timidly: "...Since my mother came, she has managed the family with diligence. The Meng family has changed its habits and everything is in order. Every day, we get up at the sound of the cock, practice martial arts and literature, and cultivate ourselves. The house is clean and tidy, and everyone is self-disciplined..."

The old lady said with satisfaction: "That's right, Jiang boy, you understand, my strength is to manage the family with diligence."

Jiang Fan hurriedly bowed: "Remember the old lady's teachings, Jiang Fan will be diligent in state affairs..."

"Bullshit!" The old lady suddenly interrupted.

Jiang Fan was stunned. Is there anything wrong with what he said?

The old lady glared at her: "I am diligent, so I should manage my family with diligence. What about you? What are you best at?"

Jiang Fan was stunned and said: "I am lazy..."

The old lady didn't expect him to say that, and couldn't help but paused: "I am just using myself as an example to let you think about the reason. Wushuang girl is the best at knowing people and assigning them to the right positions. Why did she ask you to be the regent? It must be to use your strengths. You are unworthy of being called the most talented and intelligent kid, why are you stuck in a dead end?"

Jiang Fan was stunned, his eyes slowly condensed, and after a long while he said uncertainly: "Could it be..."

The old lady said: "At least your brain works well. What I said may not be entirely correct, but I just want to remind you that if you think about things from a different perspective, you may not be able to find the right answer."

Jiang Fan was stunned. Xiao Cui certainly knew that she was lazy, but she insisted on handing this matter to herself... If according to what the old lady said, is it to let herself play to her strengths...

But her greatest strength... seems to be laziness, could it be -

ruling the country with laziness?

However, these four words flashed through his mind like a flash of lightning. In an instant, countless information came one after another, and finally his mind was bright.

Jiang Fan stayed there for a long time, his eyes finally became clear, and his excitement was obvious on his face.

"Thank you for your advice, old lady." Jiang Fan clasped his fists and bowed 90 degrees. The old lady was very talented and convinced.

The old lady looked at him with satisfaction: "No wonder everyone says that you are smart, Wushuang girl didn't make a mistake. But I still say that I just give you a direction to think about. You still need to consider many aspects and really understand Wushuang's mind."

Jiang Fan was so smart that he naturally understood what the old lady meant, but coincidentally, the old lady was right. This matter was really like this.

His heart was clear, the burden was gone, and he felt relaxed. He smiled happily, "Thanks to the old lady's advice, I was confused for a while and thought about things wrongly. Now I know what to do."

Yes, the old lady governs the family with diligence, why can't I govern the country with laziness?

Xiao Cui, so this is what you want, haha, you are really good.

But if he let the old lady know about this idea, she would definitely scold him.

At this moment, the old marshal's eyes moved slightly, and he seemed to understand something.

Only Meng Tian and Lin Nanyan were confused, and they rarely looked at each other with big eyes.

The old lady came for a moment, and she had solved Jiang Fan's confusion. Afterwards, the old lady scolded the Meng family's grandparents and grandchildren in a bad mood, and took Lin Nanyan back to the back hall to talk.

As soon as Lin Nanyan left, Meng Tian suddenly became bored, sitting and lying restlessly for a long time, and finally let the old marshal who was impatient kicked him away.

Only the old marshal and Jiang Fan were left in the hall. Jiang Fan then bowed and said, "Brother, you have a good wife. Congratulations."

Marshal Meng waved his hand awkwardly, but he couldn't hide his pride: "It's okay, it's okay, but I'm just a little hot-tempered."

Jiang Fan laughed and suddenly approached the old marshal, smiling: "Brother, I'm lazy. You have to help me more in the court in the future..."

The old marshal shuddered and stared at him: "You little bastard, you have bad intentions..."

——

Jiang Fan was finally satisfied with this trip to the Meng family. He originally just wanted to ask the old marshal to help him deal with state affairs. Now that he has figured out the general direction, his body and mind are smooth, and even his steps are much lighter.

So, he walked and walked, looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, and went into Huayang Palace in a flash.

Xiao Cui was not there, and this guy was obviously a little arrogant...

That night, Prince Jiang did not return home.

But the funny thing is that the next morning, this guy was not full of energy, but had a pair of panda eyes, was listless, and his face was full of complaints.

Obviously, some things did not succeed, but some things could not be avoided.

So, Prince Jiang went to court with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.

Zhengyang Palace was in a mess.

The empress had not returned to the court for many days, and many things in the court had no backbone, which made all the bigwigs a little headache.

As expected, His Majesty still had not returned today, and the three dukes and nine ministers were scolding each other, and the court of the Great Qin was like a vegetable market.

Li Xiu looked at the scene in front of him and sighed in his heart. This is the inevitable result of His Majesty's one-man show.

Fortunately, the officials of the Great Qin are very pragmatic and responsible. Although Gao Qi doesn't talk much, he and General Meng are usually in charge, and many things can still be handled normally and efficiently. The only difference is that some major affairs are not easy to advance without the empress's order.

But His Majesty didn't know what he was doing. He didn't return to the court for several days, and the memorials had piled up like a mountain.

He shook his head and smiled bitterly, turning his head to look outside the palace, really hoping that His Majesty would return soon...

Hmm?

Just as Li Xiu was about to turn his head back, he was suddenly startled to see that Marshal Meng accompanied a young man in white clothes, staggering into the palace with three steps.

King Xiaoyao?

Why did he come to the palace?

Pushing aside the ministers who were about to surround him again, Li Xiu shouted: "Duke, Prince?"

Everyone was also stunned and looked over. Sure enough, it was Marshal Meng Ao and King Xiaoyao who came.

Marshal Meng laughed and said, "Prime Minister Li, colleagues, I'm late today because of something. Please forgive me."

After everyone greeted each other, Li Xiu asked someone to bring a chair to Jiang Fan.

This man is at least a king of the Qin Dynasty, so he has the qualifications.

Unexpectedly, Marshal Meng waved his hand and said, "Hey? No, no. He sits up there."

"Up... up there?"

Everyone was stunned. Li Xiu looked suspiciously at the hall, where there was only one chair, the Jade Phoenix Throne of the Empress.

"Duke..."

Before Li Xiu could speak, Meng Ao said, "Everyone, please make way first. Let's talk after the person in charge sits down."

Then he made a gesture to Jiang Fan to invite him, "Your Majesty, please take a seat."

Everyone looked at Meng Ao's gesture and was stunned on the spot.

Soon someone reacted, and an official was shocked: "Duke! This is the throne of His Majesty, what do you mean?"

There was an uproar. His Majesty was not there, and Meng Ao actually let King Xiaoyao take the throne. Could it be... a rebellion?

These two words appeared in the minds of all the bigwigs almost at the same time.

There was even a stubborn civil servant who jumped out at that time, pointing at the old general: "Duke, how can you be so bold! This is treason!"

As soon as he said this, many people responded, and some military generals looked outside, obviously to see if the old general had brought troops.

Meng Ao coughed and waved his hand: "Treason? What a rebellion, His Majesty has ordered that King Xiaoyao be the regent."

Everyone was stunned, King Xiaoyao was the regent?

It's impossible. Even if His Majesty went out to send someone to regent, it should be Li Xiu or the old general, or Gao Dashuai, based on seniority. Why let this idle king go into battle?
