Only Li Su was left in the side hall. Occasionally crackling sounds could be heard from the lights on the side. Liu Xuan sat there without saying a word. This appearance made Li Su feel great pressure.

It has been several years since he ascended the throne, and Liu Xuan has also shown his skills - he is very tough, and sometimes even tough and unreasonable. When all the ministers know that the emperor's temper is not good, even if Liu Xuan does not show any

No matter how dissatisfied he is, the people sitting in front of him will also feel uncomfortable unconsciously.

But when the emperor is around, he can't be as casual as usual at home, right? Although Li Su felt uncomfortable, he could only sit there without moving, and even leaned out a little because he wanted to listen to Liu Xuan's words at first.

His body did not retract, his whole body was just stiff and slightly tilted.

This posture was so uncomfortable and uncomfortable. Li Su was complaining and helpless. Fortunately, Liu Xuan didn't make him uncomfortable for too long. He casually said: "Do you know why I asked you to be promoted to be a master craftsman?"

?”

"I don't know!"

Li Su adjusted his posture slightly while speaking. He was also very curious about the reason, but after thinking for a while, he really couldn't think of any reason.

Originally, he thought that his transfer to the position of Great Craftsman was a kind of promotion and secret demotion. Because although the Great Craftsman was nominally second only to Jiuqing (there used to be a Lieutenant Temple, but it was abolished by Liu Xuan), but

The actual things he is responsible for are just some repairs and maintenance of the palace facilities, and he really has no real power at all.

Compared to the position of Shiro of the Ministry of Rites, it is really nothing - so the person who will be the great craftsman is either a minister that the emperor is unhappy with, and is thrown into that position and does not allow him to take power, or he wants to be promoted, but

For young people who do not have a suitable position or have little qualifications for a while, let them gain some qualifications first.

At this time, Liu Xuan's meaning seems to be the latter?

He thought about it for a while. The key seemed to lie in the Weapon Refining Department, but he really didn't know anything about this newly established department. After all, the emperor had just come back from outside, and he had just announced the establishment of the Weapon Refining Department.

Nothing is said about what this department is responsible for or what it will do.

The princes in the court saw that they were under the General Temple and did not ask further questions. It seems that this is the key.

When Liu Xuan heard Li Su's answer, he didn't think it was inappropriate. On the contrary, he thought it was better. If he made random guesses and pretended to know when he clearly didn't know, it would make Liu Xuan disgusted.

"I don't know, but I'm not surprised. I only thought of the Weapon Refining Department when I was touring the northwest. I'm keeping you here this time. I want to explain to you the importance of the Weapon Refining Department."

Hearing this, Li Su immediately became energetic.

"From your Majesty's point of view, it seems that the Weapon Refining Department is a very important department? At least His Majesty attaches great importance to it. So, you really want to reuse me?"

To be honest, when Lu Bu threatened him to surrender to the emperor, he was not very willing. It was just that Lu Bu was too strong. In addition, he also felt that he helped Dong Zhuo to persuade Lu Bu and did many things for Dong Zhuo. In the end, he didn't get anything.

Benefits, I feel very depressed. Instead of doing this, I might as well give it a try. If it succeeds, it will naturally lead to another glory and wealth.

Later, the emperor successfully moved the capital to Chang'an. Li Su was not reused at first, and he thought that all his efforts were in vain. He did not expect that the emperor would soon establish six ministries to increase the powers of ministers and shilang, and he took advantage of the situation and joined the Ministry of Rites as the Ministry of Rites.

Although Zuoshiro is not the top person in this court, he can still be considered a talkative figure.

He was naturally extremely satisfied with this, and felt that his original choice was not wrong. At least the emperor had given him something in return.

At that time, he felt that this was all he had done, because he also understood that people like him would not be appreciated by the emperor. If he turned his back on his master and surrendered, even if he could gain the favor of his new master for a while, he would not be reused, and he would not be able to keep the emperor.

A lifetime of peace and wealth is the best solution.

The same is true for Lu Bu, but the biggest difference between him and Lu Bu is that Lu Bu has the most powerful force today and has his own way of commanding operations. Although Li Su is also a military commander, he thinks that his abilities are limited. This is also

When Liu Xuan separated the military and political affairs, he did not go to the army but stayed in the court.

At the same time, Li Su vaguely knew that the army and some of the emperor's trusted ministers had received some mysterious benefits. After all, he was from the same hometown as Lu Bu and was relatively close to Lu Bu's group. Even if Lu Bu didn't say anything, he would inevitably be

People can see visions from some clues.

More importantly, Lu Bu has gradually become less arrogant and arrogant in the past two years, and is even more in awe of today's emperor. The changes are very obvious, and Li Su can naturally tell that something is wrong. But he feels that he has stopped here in the court, and is afraid that

There is no hope in this life of knowing what benefits Lu Bu and the others gained from the emperor.

Who would have thought that a huge benefit would be thrown at him like this. Li Su was not very capable, but his ability to assess the situation was absolutely first-class. At this time, he understood that if he could grasp it, his life would usher in a new situation.

With his eyes wide open, Li Su leaned out while sitting there. Li Su eagerly wanted to know what the so-called Weapon Refining Department did, so that he could know what he should do to make His Majesty satisfied with himself.

But when Liu Xuan opened his mouth, Li Su was immediately dumbfounded.

"The responsibility of the Weapon Refining Department is actually to help the imperial court make some special supplies!"

"Special supplies?" Li Su was not very clear about this concept because he didn't know what it meant?

"That's right, such as some so-called fairy magic weapons and panaceas..."

Li Su's eyes widened, and he felt like the world was spinning. His vision went dark and he almost fell to the ground. Because he never expected that today, when he was only in his early twenties, he would be looking for an immortal to ask? Isn't it that the emperor is forty or fifty years old or that his career has already been accomplished?

Did you do it only when you have nothing major to worry about after you become successful?

But now that the world is in chaos and the emperor has so many things to deal with, why is he thinking about this matter?

But Li Su regarded the Weapon Refining Department as a place where all the ridiculous things done by emperors who pursued immortality in the past dynasties were the same. It was estimated that all he had to do was to recruit alchemists and provide various kinds of services.

Medicine ore and other materials give them a place to make elixirs.

"Absurd! Absolutely absurd!"

Li Su didn't have any big pursuits, and he was a bit of a loser, but he knew what he could do and what he couldn't do. The most important thing was that in the current situation, if he followed the emperor to do this

, it is estimated that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty would have to chop him into pieces immediately - his reputation as a traitor who brought disaster to the country would definitely not escape him.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to remonstrate and show that he was also a good minister who was loyal to the country, he saw Liu Xuan looking at him with a smile. That expression looked weird.

It turned out that Liu Xuan guessed what Li Su was thinking when he saw Li Su's eyes widened and didn't speak. He was curious about how Li Su would advise him. What he didn't expect was that Li Su noticed something was wrong when he saw his expression, and he made a sudden move.

The words of advice were swallowed back with enthusiasm.

"Um?"

When Liu Xuan saw Li Su closing his open mouth again, he began to admire Li Su's ability to observe words and emotions.

"This is considered a skill. If people like this use it well, it will be of great use."

Thinking of this, he no longer had the intention to continue making jokes about Li Su. Instead, he introduced the situation of the Weapon Refining Department in a serious manner, and finally took a few things for Li Su to see, which naturally included the appearance.

It's unremarkable, but it can keep taking out arrows from the quiver.

"In the early days of the establishment of the Weapon Refining Department, this was the main thing to be made!"

In an instant, Li Su, who once had all his common sense overturned, could not digest this shocking fact. Holding the quiver in his hands, he felt as if his hands were being pressed by huge rocks. It was obviously weightless, but it was weighing him down.

I couldn't even stand up straight, and my hands were shaking non-stop.

"This...this is the treasure of the Immortal Family. Your Majesty wants me to supervise the production of these things?"

Thinking of this, Li Su suddenly straightened up and his hands stopped shaking. He just felt that he had been greatly appreciated. He was extremely grateful for the emperor's respect and trust. He bowed his head and saluted: "Your Majesty.

With such high regard, I will definitely live up to your expectations!"

After all, he has to be responsible for something as powerful as the Immortal Family's magic weapon. Moreover, according to His Majesty's wishes, the things he will make in the future are much more magical than this quiver. Putting himself in charge of such a department, Li Su feels that he can only repay it with death.

Already.

Liu Xuan smiled and nodded. He was naturally very happy that Li Su was so kind, so he gave Li Su an even bigger surprise: "When I left the palace today, I took this jade pendant to Wen Ruo's house and told me that I

I want you to go."

The inside of this jade pendant is a symbol. Anyone who goes to Xun Yu with this thing is to remind Xun Yu that he is one of his own and can teach those basic cultivation techniques - Liu Xuan, because of his status as the emperor, naturally cannot

I am personally responsible for everything.

At present, those who can receive the skills bestowed by themselves are all important officials in the imperial court. It is normal for the officials, who are known as the first of all officials and the most respected of the six departments, to be in charge.

Although Li Su didn't know the meaning of this jade pendant, he could guess its importance by looking at His Majesty's expression. He took the jade pendant respectfully and left the palace with excitement on his forehead.

There is no need to go into detail about the fact that he left the imperial city to look for Xun Yu. It was inevitably arousing. In short, Li Su was so stimulated that he couldn't sleep all night.

After arranging and winning over Li Su, Liu Xuan also began to seriously think about what Li Su could do in the future.

"He will be responsible for the General Temple and the Weapon Refining Department first. If he can take advantage of this period of time to gain a detailed understanding and mastery of many cultivation techniques and knowledge... it is not impossible to become a Taichang in the future."

Not to mention the title next to Taichang, Liu Xuan cannot help but attach great importance to being responsible for national education, and this position must be filled by someone he trusts in the future.

As for Kong Rong? Just go wherever it’s cooler!!.
