"Seventh Brother, do you remember the origin of this "Asking for the Way" painting? It was your second brother's painting, you gave it the name, and I wrote the poem."
The Seventh Prince was startled, then he turned his gaze to the poem on the painting:
There is no chance to return to the carriage return path,
The three people asked the question three times and it was wrong.
He said in a deep voice: "Father, to be honest, at that time, your son... your son thought..."
The emperor glanced at Li Qingcha and raised his lips.
The seventh brother was quite good. He could distinguish the close from the distant. He changed his self-proclaimed son to his minister when Li Qingcha was present.
He waved his hand.
"It doesn't matter what you call yourself."
This is to show closeness to Li Qingcha.
Although he didn't like Li Qingcha in his heart, since he had made up his mind to use Li Qingcha as the "Canglang Water", he had to use some tricks to win people's hearts.
The Seventh Prince bowed.
"Yes."
"Let's talk about painting."
"Father, when I first saw your poem, I thought there was something wrong with it. You separated the word 'wen' in 'three questions' and the word 'dao' in 'daoren' to form 'wendao'. Isn't that a forced combination?"
"What do you think now?"
"Now, the Three Sects' discussion has ended early because of the damage to public order. I have to sigh at my father's foresight. The Three Daoists are wrong in three aspects... haha... they are really wrong in every aspect."
This flattery is very well done.
"Ha ha!"
The emperor laughed,
He turned to Li Qingcha who was standing beside him and asked, "Master Li, you are a great poet of our time, what do you think of these two lines?"
Suddenly, his vision sharpened.
The Seventh Prince felt the pressure instantly, and the hairs on his back stood up.
He stole a glance at Li Qingcha.
But he discovered that Li Qingcha had actually stood in front of the imperial desk, as if he was going to comment on his father's poem.
Is this kid crazy!?
Although the Seventh Prince wanted to wink at Li Qingcha, he did not dare to move because of the emperor's sight.
He was so anxious that he almost started cursing.
However, Li Qingcha still stared at the "Asking for the Way" painting, as if he was really thinking deeply.
After a while,
She chanted slowly: "The sun chisels a hole in the chaos and dies. Even if there is some wind left, it will eventually break."
The emperor could not help but be stunned.
then,
"Great! A great saying 'The sun will drill a hole in the chaos and it will die'! A great saying 'Although there is still some wind, it will eventually break'! I think those Taoists have become stupid from practicing Taoism, they respect the immortals but do not fear the authority of the gods!"
The emperor pondered for a moment, then picked up his pen to add two more lines from Li Qingcha:
The sun drills a hole in the chaos and dies,
Although there is still some wind, it will eventually be broken.
There is no chance to return to the carriage return path,
The three people asked the question three times and it was wrong.
……
These four sentences are a severe criticism of Taoist monks.
The Seventh Prince then realized that there is always someone stronger than you.
When it comes to flattery, I am just a novice who knows how to go with the flow, while Li Qingcha can go against the flow.
Awesome!
The emperor blew the ink dry, rolled it up, and wanted to hand it to Li Qingcha.
But his hand stopped halfway.
He cursed himself inwardly for almost being a fool. How could he give the painting that the second son gave to him, his father, to his ministers?
Doing so is not in accordance with etiquette.
The most important thing is that it is very easy for the ministers to misunderstand the status of the second prince.
The emperor put the painting away.
He chuckled,
"Li Qing, I almost forgot that I rewarded you before."
This reward refers to the position of head of the Ministry of Rites' Reception Department.
Li Qingcha couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"Your Majesty, I... I am not a member of the imperial examination system, and I do not like to read the Four Books and Five Classics. I am not familiar with policy essays, so I am afraid I cannot handle this important task."
The emperor frowned.
Appeared again...
Li Qingcha's inherently annoying temperament reappeared.
Chapter 380 I Can Give It, But You Can’t Take It
Add more.

"..."
"..."
"..."
The Qianqing Palace was quiet.
The emperor stared at Li Qingcha, Baisi was not allowed to ride on her sister,
How could there be such a freak in the world?
When others discussed official positions, some also shirked their responsibilities. However, in the eyes of the emperor, those shirking responsibilities were all shirking rewards, and their reverence for the imperial power could not be concealed.
But Li Qingcha...
Li Qingcha gives people a very strange feeling.
From his tone, it seemed as if the official position in the Great Xia Dynasty was really just a job, just like those food vendors on the street and waiters in the store, they were all jobs.
When someone says “I’m afraid I can’t handle this big responsibility”, it means that they simply feel that they are not suitable for this job or they don’t want to put in the effort.
This excuse is objective and factual.
It has nothing to do with the Great Xia Dynasty or imperial power.
This is what the emperor can't stand the most.
Under the whole world, could it be the king's land.
On the shore of the land, could it be the king's ministers?
Why do some people not respect the imperial power?
How dare he!?
Moreover, this is the first time...
The emperor thought to himself,
Why is it that Li Qingcha's job is so in line with my wishes, but people just can't like him?
For a moment, he even suspected that there was something wrong with him.
Is there really such a thing as incompatibility in this world?
The emperor hesitated.
The reason was simple: he really couldn't explain his inexplicable and consistent disgust towards Li Qingcha.
He whispered, "Li Qing, what did you just say? You don't understand the policy?"
Li Qingcha nodded.
"Yes, I am indeed not familiar with policy."
"I believe you don't read the Four Books and Five Classics, because it's ridiculous that you can say you don't understand policy essays... Hehe... Do you know what policy essays are?"
"I really don't know."
The emperor couldn't help but laugh and turned to the seventh prince.
"Seventh brother, you go ahead."
The Seventh Prince: ￣□￣｜｜
Hey!
Why are you two chatting? The onlookers are in trouble...
He spoke helplessly.
"Strategy essays... um... Strategy essays are articles that offer advice to the court, and their content discusses current political issues?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows.
"You're not wrong. But, that questioning tone at the end... Sigh... Old Seven, you need to be more confident."
"This... Actually, I still don't have a solid grasp of it. If I had learned it well enough, how could I not be confident?"
"That makes sense. Yes, you can see your own shortcomings clearly, and this alone is worth learning from. But it's not enough to just see your shortcomings clearly. You must read more, understand?"
"Yes."
"In the future, I will check your homework when I have the chance."
Seventh Prince: "..."
Hey!
Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck!
My mentality exploded.
The emperor ignored him and turned to look at Li Qingcha.
"Mr. Li, you said you don't understand policy, so I have to ask, what is the 'Five-Day Distribution Chart' that the head of the Ministry of Justice, Bu Lin, showed at the court meeting today? What is the 'Trend Chart of Change'?"
"..."
Li Qingcha was speechless.
The emperor said, "Li Qing, Grand Secretary Chu has already said that you worked with the officials of the Ministry of Justice to draw this overnight?"
Li Qingcha nodded.
"Yes."
"If I didn't have those two pictures, even if I wanted to shut down the Three Sects' discussion, it would be illegitimate and unreasonable. These two pictures are more valuable than a two or three thousand word essay."
"emperor……"
"Don't rush to defend yourself. Just answer, are those policy papers more important than your drawings?"
"I am terrified."
