Datang: I was overheard by the Empress

Chapter 251, Multiple Choice Questions!

Although the empress is lying on the recliner at the moment, Shangguan Wan'er has already eagerly prepared a cup of tea for the empress!

At this moment, Her Majesty the Empress was lying leisurely on the reclining chair, ready to drink tea while listening to Di Ping'an's inner voice, what exactly was she going to say?
But before he could drink the tea, the empress spit it out!
"Cough, cough, cough!"

Her Majesty the Empress, who was choked by a sip of tea, coughed again and again,

Shangguan Wan'er patted Her Majesty on the back in a hurry, and after a long time, Her Majesty finally regained her composure and stared straight at Di Ping'an!
God damn will never be a slave, even with food and shelter!
I am an official for you, who made you a slave?

Besides, haven't I always provided food and accommodation for you!
Being watched directly by His Majesty the Empress, Di Ping'an's scalp became numb for a while, but he still said bravely:

"Your Majesty, according to the structure of our human body, it is best to sit up when drinking water. It is easy to choke when drinking water while lying down!"

Empress: "..."

The empress was speechless at the moment,

Am I discussing with you whether you will choke on drinking water?
I'm saying you'll never be a slave...

Ah bah, I'm talking about missions!
……

After calming down his mood, Wu Zetian continued to say with a smile:

"Very well, I really didn't misunderstand the person. Although this task is a bit difficult, I believe that as long as you are willing and capable, this task will definitely be easy..."

"Your Majesty, I feel that I have been exhausted recently. Although I have the heart to serve the country, I am afraid that I really don't have the energy to complete the tasks entrusted by Your Majesty. I am afraid that I will fail Your Majesty's great trust and cannot afford it. Please ask Your Majesty to choose someone else!"

Before Her Majesty the Empress could finish speaking, Di Pingan cried out in horror,

task or something, the worst,
Don't perform the task even if you kill me!

"Oh, since that's the case, it's really difficult to handle. It is precisely for you to perform this task that I let you serve as the county magistrate for ten thousand years. Since you are in poor health and cannot perform this task , this can only be done by another official for you!"

Her Majesty the Empress pondered for a moment, and then said in a deep voice:
"Since Ping An, you don't want to be the county magistrate for ten thousand years, then you can go to Liangzhou to be a magistrate. The fifth-rank official is worthy of your status as the champion of the new department. I don't treat you too badly!"

to Liangzhou,
Be a magistrate!
Don't treat me badly!
Di Ping'an's face turned green for a moment. At this moment, Di Ping'an wondered if the memory of the Empress was not very good.

Obviously, he only sent so many West Lake Longjing and Dahongpao two days ago, and so many top-quality tea, just to prevent him from becoming an official in Liangzhou. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, the Empress actually let him go to Liangzhou directly. Going to be the magistrate in Liangzhou, is it so easy to be the prefect of Liangzhou?
Besides, Di Ping'an has also heard in the past two days that Xue Rengui has started to ask for help from the imperial court because of the emergency in the northwest frontier. From this point of view, there may be a war in Liangzhou. Don't be too busy!
……

"Your Majesty, how can I say that I am also the number one scholar in this subject, can you not go to Liangzhou?"

Di Pingan hurriedly said with a smile, the Empress's move is too vicious, if she doesn't do the task for her, she will be sent to Liangzhou directly!
"If you don't want to go to Liangzhou, it's okay, then go to Qiongzhou!" The empress said lightly, and gave Di Pingan another choice.

Di Ping'an's face was still green, what's the difference between going to Qiongzhou and going to Liangzhou?

Qiongzhou is the Hainan of later generations, but the problem is that Hainan is Hainan, and Qiongzhou is Qiongzhou. During the Tang Dynasty, Qiongzhou was not only poor, but also far away from the ends of the earth. There are many mosquitoes, rats and ants on the island.

But most of the people who went to Hainan were relegated to Hainan. He, a dignified number one scholar, was sent to Hainan to be the magistrate. This is not a joke!
"Your Majesty, is there any other choice?"

Di Ping'an asked with the last sliver of hope, now that there are two options in the world, the empress can't pick a worse place!

"Di Ping'an, didn't you say that the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die? Why, I will do it for you as an official, and you even picked out flowers. There are only three options, or you can be your Wannian county honestly." Ling, finish this task for me, or go to Liangzhou or Qiongzhou to be your magistrate!"

Her Majesty's expression froze for a moment, her eyes widened, and Di Ping'an immediately gave up. It seems that this is a three-choice question, and it is still a must-choice question!

"Have you thought about it? Tell me your answer when you think about it!"

At this time, Her Majesty the Empress lay leisurely on the reclining chair again, without looking at Di Ping'an, or even listening to Di Ping'an's voice,

Your Majesty the Empress knows what Di Ping'an's choice is. Unless this kid has changed his gender, even if he is killed, he probably won't have to travel so far to Liangzhou and Qiongzhou, so you, Di Pingan, should be obedient to this task. You have to do it for me!

"Your Majesty, I have made up my mind!"

Di Pingan gritted his teeth, and said bitterly: "I feel that Yichen's current ability is not enough to be the magistrate. It's better to be the county magistrate in Chang'an City first!"

Hearing what Di Ping'an said, Her Majesty the Empress nodded in satisfaction: "Very well, since you have chosen to continue to be the county magistrate of Wannian, I will tell you this task now!"

"The area in charge of Wannian County is Chang'an East City, and Chang'an East City is the main place where Chang'an's civil and military officials, dignitaries, and royal relatives live, but it is also because of this. There are not many crimes, otherwise, Dali Temple would not have accumulated so many cases last year!"

"Although Di Qing has sorted out all these cases in Dali Temple, it is only treating the symptoms and not the root cause. During the Zhenguan Dynasty, Emperor Taizong Wen Chengwu was successful. Although the Tang Dynasty was rich in products and the people were rich, it was hard to say a word about the judiciary. , and after the recuperation of the Zhenguan Dynasty, those aristocratic families have a tendency to rise gradually. If they can't be contained, I'm afraid they are only at the feet of the emperor, but the things of corrupting the law and neglecting human life are still repeatedly banned !"

"So if you want to put an end to this matter, you have to do both. What I mean is that the two of you should cooperate with each other. Di Qing is in Dali Temple, and Ping An, you have to shoulder the duties of the county magistrate. If there is any disturbance in the East City of Chang'an , you must cooperate as soon as possible, and then join hands with Di Qing to suppress the case as quickly as possible and give an absolutely fair and reasonable punishment!"

"I believe that only with such a vigorous and vigorous method can those criminals be restrained!"

"Peace, I have high hopes for you this time, so don't let me down!"
