Chapter 878 You are scared
“He cried?”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“Haha.”
Ji Chengjue He put down the book in his hand and smiled.
Wei Zhonghe also laughed together.
"Your Majesty, I don't know why you rub him like this?"
In fact, the news of the attack on the capital arrived in the morning. Military reports are much faster.
Because military reports have to be reported level by level, and they have to be responsible for inspections at all levels;
Furthermore, King Pingxi, who is fighting on the front line, probably has no intention of making a special trip early. Send someone to Yanjing to report on this earth-shattering victory.
After all, he is no longer the Colonel Zheng who has never seen the world before. There are great victories here anyway, and he can't escape. It would be a shame to go out of his way to report the victory.
And at that time, King Pingxi himself was still running for his life, and he had no intention of doing so.
The intelligence from the Secret Service is first-hand, but it may not be really accurate. After all, some self-interested information was sent back under the guise of the Secret Service. This kind of thing was done when the emperor was still a prince. It's not that I haven't done it before.
And this news is so... exaggerated.
But such exaggerated news, coupled with the identity of the person involved,
The emperor,
after reading it, he was immediately convinced,
he Zheng Fan,
really exposed Shangjing!
So, when the emperor went to see Nian Yao, he actually knew the news of the great victory, but he suppressed his emotions and did not reveal them.
Facing Wei Zhonghe’s inquiry,
the emperor smiled and said
; Be happy; when you are frustrated, it is more interesting to pretend that you don’t know.
After thinking about it, when you need such a person, it seems that he is the only one.”
"Your Majesty, the cabinet is here to ask whether the news of the attack on the capital needs to be spread inside and outside the capital to share with the people."
"The surnamed Zheng is not sure whether he can come back safely. Press the news.”
“I understand.”
"If something happens to the person named Zheng, even if he goes to the capital and is defeated ten times, I still feel that I have suffered a big loss."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Prince Pingxi has his own destiny. Mr. Xiang, I believe that the prince will definitely turn disaster into good fortune.”
"I also think he won't die. It seems that no one in this world can kill him."
Wei Zhonghe shut up, because the emperor's words included himself.
The implication may be that even the emperor cannot do this.
No matter whether the emperor really thinks so, as a personal servant, I cannot accept these words.
“It’s a pity. If we, the Yan State, have reserves of national strength at this time, we cooperate with the attack on the capital, and when the people are in chaos, we send out a large army, recruit the people, and start another national war.
The entire north of Qianjiang River can be swallowed by my big swallow!
Oh,
What a pity. ”
The emperor was very upset, because there was really no food left at home.
When his father was in power, in order to fight, he pulled out all the thorns in the country early, and the horse stepped on it. Gate valve is one of the benchmarks
After he succeeded to the throne, he lived a frugal life, but Qian Chu was still restless;
The emperor wanted to slaughter the fat sheep, but I had a bad tooth and there was nothing left for him The object of surgery.
"Your Majesty, the flowery land of Qian Kingdom will definitely be the territory of my Dayan in the future. I am just asking Gan people to keep it for me, Dayan, for a few more years."
"I I think so too, now , just waiting for the news that the man surnamed Zheng has come back safely. As long as he comes back safely and moves to the east of Shanxi, Chu State will not be able to make trouble;
Ganren passing through this is like being cut off ”
Wei Zhonghe immediately shrank in cooperation.
"Haha, after Qian Chu is settled, I can let the people cultivate their health and rest for a few years;
But, Wei Zhonghe, do you think Nian Yao is really enlightened? It's a joke that makes me happy, or did he really guess it? ?”
“In response to your majesty, although Nian Yao was captured by Prince Pingxi, he had fought against the two princes of Dayan. I think it’s a half-and-half relationship.”
“Yeah.”
The emperor nodded.
"Is Your Majesty really planning to use him?"
"Li Liang and I can continue to use him. He is young, so why not?"
"Your Majesty, you are a slave. That's not what I mean. What I want to say is that Nian Yao entered Since the imperial palace, slaves have sent people to forcibly take medicine and cut off the veins every few days;
If His Majesty wants to use him, if he really wants to be the general manager, he is a young warrior with a good physical foundation. , the slave is still..."
"Do you still need to ask? At this point, you have to learn from the man named Zheng."
"I understand."
"Yes."
< br>"Your Majesty."
Outside, someone informed me.
Generally speaking, when someone asks for an audience, a small eunuch will come to report it, but some people have special status and can report it themselves.
“Come in.”
The one who walked in was the little eunuch in red robe. He knelt down in front of the imperial case.
“What’s the matter?”
“I’m telling you, Your Majesty, I watched the stars at night a few days ago, and got the response from the cauldron. Finally, I confirmed one thing with the communication between the cauldron and the cauldron. .”
"This should be the errand of Qin Tianjian." The emperor said.
At this time, Duke Wei next to him said: "Your Majesty, in the early years when the grandpa was here, he had supervised the Qintian Prison."
What Wei Zhonghe meant was that although the grandpa was long gone , but as the heir of the Grand Master, this little eunuch in red robe is qualified to manage the affairs of Qin Tianjian.
"Oh." The emperor nodded, reached out and picked up the teacup in front of him, and blew on it, "What's wrong?"
The little eunuch in red robe sighed slightly in his heart. The temperament of this emperor is really similar to that of the previous emperor;
They are all the same, disdainful of things involving heavenly secrets, ghosts and gods.
Sometimes, it’s just for the sake of coping.
But there is no way, he can't hide this matter.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Black Dragon Star Array is shining again."
"The Black Dragon Star Array?" Ji Chengjue frowned slightly. As a Ji family member, he knew what it was.
At that time, the three princes opened the border, but with the collapse of Daxia, it became the three princes' establishment.
According to the tradition of Zhu Xia, the establishment of a country should "uphold the will of heaven and earth", which is the so-called emperor.
At the same time, when the country is founded, the celestial phenomena will be attracted into the national urn;
To put it bluntly, it means picking out a string in the starry sky and announcing that this is your own star array.
The star array of Yan State is in the shape of a dragon, which is called the Black Dragon Star Array.
"Your Majesty, the Black Dragon Star Array has become dim after King Jingnan traveled westward and King Zhenbei died of illness. But just the night before yesterday, the star array suddenly brightened.
This is a sign that the murderous weapon is in hand again. Lord Kill."
"Oh, I understand."
The emperor's response was simple.
The little eunuch in red robe said again: "Your Majesty, hold the murderous weapon again and kill the attacker. I think the only way for today's Dayan is..."
"What you want to say is, Prince Pingxi?"
"Slave..."
"You slave, what are you going to say next? What you want to say is that the murder weapon was owned by a minister. Is it not good for me to control it?”
< br>"I don't dare, I don't dare!"
"No, you dare, I'm surprised. Did Zheng Fan offend you at some point and make you so impatient?" Want to give him eye drops?
I haven't asked yet, why are you reminding me? "
"Your Majesty, this servant is just responsible for his duties. I dare not hide it. I am loyal to Your Majesty and have no selfish motives!
Furthermore, the slave has no grudges against Prince Ping Xi. In fact, the slave even treated Prince Ping Xi’s subordinates as close friends on the wine trail. "
"Haha. "
The emperor laughed twice, but there was a kind of teasing in this laughter.
"I ask you, the last time the Black Dragon Star Formation was bright, was the Great Yan River overturned?"
"Your Majesty...slave..."
"Reply."
< br>"Never. "
"Okay, since King Jingnan, King Zhenbei and the late emperor did not act disobediently when they were there, how can you conclude that King Pingxi will treat the Black Dragon Star Array after lighting it up? I am not in a good position
I feel that I am not as good as the late Emperor, and I have always been humble and self-reflective. However, there is no need for you, a slave, to point at my nose in front of me and say, I am not as far away as the late Emperor. Therefore, the situation that the late Emperor can suppress, I I can't hold down those who the late emperor can hold down, but I can't do what the late emperor can do! "
"Bang! "
The tea cup was smashed to the ground by the emperor.
The little eunuch in red robe pressed his forehead against the blue brick of the imperial study room, and Wei Zhonghe on one side immediately knelt down.
The eunuchs waiting at the gate of the imperial study immediately knelt down, and the maids and eunuchs in the imperial garden outside also knelt down.
When the emperor is angry, no one dares to stand.
"Your Majesty, calm down, slave... slave really..."
The emperor said seriously:
"Tomorrow at the meeting, I want to see Qin Tianjian delivering the goods in person. The astrology above shows that the Black Dragon Star Array is bright, which means that the military god of Yan is re-established and the military fortune is undiminished.
This is God’s blessing for Yan, and God’s will is on Yan!”
After saying this,
the emperor's eyes fell coldly on the little eunuch in red robe.
The little eunuch in red robe immediately said:
"Slave...obey the order!"
......
Harem, Taoyuan.
When the new emperor first came to the throne, the queen lived in the main palace of the harem. Her location was actually behind the imperial study room. After the emperor finished handling government affairs in the imperial study room, he came out and walked north, walking straight past the two rooms. From the courtyard gate, you can reach the queen's bedroom.
But later, the queen moved to a remote palace garden to live. She cleared a piece of land and planted some vegetables. A side hall was built as a silkworm room, and there were spinning utensils inside.
There are some silkworms raised in the silkworm room, but the queen will not do it herself. The purpose of reserving these is to show that the queen personally teaches the Dayan woman to work hard at home;
But the queen has taken care of the vegetable garden carefully.
As soon as the emperor came in, he saw the queen squatting there washing cucumbers.
The queen did not wear formal clothes, but dressed as a peasant woman;
Actually, the peasant woman's dress is quite beautiful, the clothes are not dirty or torn, the person is not dirty and very plump, when squatting, The figure looks very enchanting.
The emperor swallowed subconsciously when he saw it.
The queen has given birth to two sons for herself, but the emperor's interest in the queen remains undiminished.
All the servants in the palace who should retire have also retired, and those who remain are our own people who are discerning.
The emperor stepped forward and hugged the queen.
The queen had actually heard the footsteps a long time ago. She looked back and brought a freshly washed cucumber to the emperor.
Ji Chengjue opened his mouth and took a bite. The home-grown cucumber was crisp and refreshing, and it tasted very different.
“Is it delicious, Your Majesty?”
"It's delicious, but you planted too much."
"It's hot, so it can be eaten cold with every meal, and can also be used to pickle pickled cucumbers. I feel like you didn't plant enough."
The emperor was helpless. In fact, if the man named Zheng hadn't made a dirty joke about cucumbers with him back then, he wouldn't have thought much about it.
However, after you have this idea in your mind, and then look at the large area of cucumbers planted, you always feel that you have been too busy with state affairs recently and neglected someone?
“Has your Majesty had a meal?”
"I've used it. Do you have any ice drinks?"
"The imperial doctor said that your Majesty is busy with state affairs and has a strong liver, so you should drink herbal tea."
"Okay."
< br>The queen personally brought the herbal tea over, and the emperor drank the cup directly.
"Have you heard about what's going on outside?" the emperor asked.
"What's going on outside?" The queen shook her head, "I don't have any spies in front. We only have two people in the harem, Chen Concubine and my sister, so we don't need to arrange for more people to do anything."
The Queen. This is the truth;
The two princes of Dayan were both born to her, and one of them is the eldest son and the prince.
For the rest of her life, all she needs to do is do nothing.
After one month, advise His Majesty to be frugal, let the historian record it, and then ask Wei Zhonghe to send someone to the cabinet;
After another month, he advised his majesty on the draft, asked the historian to record it, and then asked Wei Zhonghe to send someone to the cabinet;
In the meantime, if the emperor wanted to exalt someone, he would arrange for the queen to come forward to admonish him. Mercifully, the emperor borrowed the donkey from Poxia again.
So, although she has not been the queen for a short time, her virtuous name is praised by both the government and the public.
After dealing with the persona facing the foreign dynasty, the queen can stay in her own palace and play with herself.
“To the south, Zheng Fan broke into the capital of Qian Kingdom.”
"Really?" Seeing that the emperor was not joking, the queen immediately knelt down and said, "I congratulate Your Majesty!"
"Get up, why are we husband and wife doing this?"
< br>"No, I feel that if I don't do this, I can't show my inner excitement. This Zheng Fan is really powerful in fighting. It's not like fighting in Liangdi." Well, why did he end up in Shangjing?”
“He is just messing around, but he is capable of messing around. But now the news has come back, and I don’t know the name. Zheng, when will I be able to come back whole?”
“Your Majesty, didn’t you break up in Beijing?”
"It's a breakthrough. It's of great significance. However, we, Dayan, no longer have the ability to send troops to expand the results. The troops and horses entangled with the Qianchu coalition forces at Nanmen Pass have become somewhat unsustainable in terms of logistics."
Contribute food to the enemy, not grow In the long run, the army still has to move and adjust according to the needs of the battlefield. It is not like the bandits. After eating here, they will go to a new place to continue eating. Therefore, Nanmen Pass still has the task of transporting food and military supplies to the army. Now, the pressure is mounting.
In Nanwang City, His Highness and Li Liangshen’s army only created some pressure with the three armies of the Qian Kingdom, shouting and coming in and out, and there was no serious army sent out to start a big battle. , if the logistics cannot keep up, the army will not be able to get out.
"However, Zheng Fan has completely suppressed Jiang Ganren's arrogance for me now. I can finally free my hands to gather some energy for Dayan."
“Conquering Shangjing is a feat that even the first Zhenbei marquises could not accomplish. How are you going to reward him?”
"How to reward?
He is already a prince, how else can I reward him?
My son has been sent to him, so I can't send my daughter-in-law to him this time, right?
Oh, yes, you can send your daughter-in-law there. The person named Zheng has such a good reputation, I don’t think she will be really happy, haha.”
The queen opened her mouth and bit the emperor’s shoulder. .
"Hiss...it hurts..."
The queen bit her lip and said; "Your Majesty is willing to give it away, so I will go and see who is feeling distressed."
"Haha."
The eunuchs and maids nearby were all indifferent, like sculptures.
The emperor and the empress were acquainted among the people and had a deep relationship. Between husband and wife, some exciting private conversations were nothing at all. They were just to add a bit of fun.
After playing around for a while,
Queen He said tangledly;
“Looking at it from this point of view, there seems to be nothing to reward him?”
Wei Zhonghe, who was beside him, heard the Queen’s words. At these words, my spine began to feel frightened, and my heart felt like a thousand horses galloping.
What the queen means,
Isn't it Prince Pingxi who has run out of rewards?
Wei Zhonghe knew that the Empress did not mean this. The Empress was very smart and had a good handle on people and things, but he wanted a woman who came from a butcher's family to become a queen after such a short period of time. It is impossible to understand the affairs and taboos in the court all at once.
It’s just that the speaker has no intention, but the listener?
Eunuch Wei glanced at the emperor's face from the corner of his eye, and found that the emperor's expression was as usual, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
“The prime ministers and I are going to discuss things tonight, so I won’t come back to sleep tonight.”
"Well, I understand."
The emperor was intimate with the queen for a while, then stood up, took two washed cucumbers, gnawed them and walked out.
Eunuch Wei followed behind, following every step.
The discussion in the imperial study room at night lasted for too long. Basically, the emperor said it, and the ministers and ministers listened and then integrated the procedures for tomorrow's meeting.
After it was over, all the prime ministers and assistants resigned.
The emperor, served by Eunuch Wei, lay down in the side hall where he was staying.
This was his father's favorite place to rest;
Ji Chengjue also stayed here on the first night after he succeeded to the throne.
The emperor rested, and Eunuch Wei stood at the door, leaning his back against the pillar, half-squinting.
In the palace, Ji Chengjue was lying with his eyes open;
After lying down for a while,
he sat up again;
“Are you scared?”
A familiar voice came.
Ji Chengjue raised his head and saw his "father" standing in front of him.
His father bent down and put his face very close to his. On the corner of his mouth was the kind of smile that his father was accustomed to, as if he was mocking everything in front of him.
"Father, weren't you afraid at the beginning?"
"Do you think I am afraid?"
"Probably, a little bit, right?"
“I am the emperor.”
"Me too."
"No, you are not, you are not as good as me."
"Am I not as good as you?"
"I told you, Emperor, when Have you done this to cut off all your emotions and desires?”
“What do you mean by your father, do you want me to cut off my relationship with Zheng Fan?”
"Look, look, look, hehehe..."
"Father, why are you laughing? What's so funny?"
"You told me at the beginning, you don't It sounds really funny to be a ruthless emperor like me."
"Father..."
"Being ruthless may not be truly ruthless, and love may not be true. Righteousness, hehehe.
As an emperor who has cut off all emotions and desires, I have no fear at all.
And you,
the emperor who claims to be unable to learn from me in this regard,
but here you say to me,
you,
Harmful,
fearful,
up! "(End of this chapter)
