For the ministers, Emperor Guangxi, who was still a young emperor, couldn't understand anything at all.

Because of Xiao Shangshu's one-sided words, shipping was opened before, and he completely ignored the opposition of the ministers. Although the ministers shut up when the wealth brought back by the ships that went to sea later could be used as the income of the treasury for half a year, the ministers still felt that Emperor Guangxi must have been controlled by Xiao Shangshu.

Recently, this idea has become more ingrained, because Emperor Guangxi has decreed that the young Xiao Shangshu will be the prime minister. Many highly respected ministers are indignant, he is just a hairy boy, how can he compare to us!

However, Emperor Guangxi didn't listen to it, he didn't listen, and the young Xiao Shangshu was willing to be the prime minister at the same time, but he also had a traitor on his head, intent to rebel, and so on, which was enough to make him lose his head, and the black pot also carried a lot.

Xiao Qiao didn't listen to the gossip in the court, and he was sitting in the newly given mansion of Emperor Guangxi and discussing with Hu Li how to build this big mansion. Hu Li walked around, "But Brother Xiao, didn't you say that we would leave the Imperial City in a year or two at most?" When the house is repaired, we don't have time to live there. ”

"Well, that's right, then find someone to clean up the main courtyard." Xiao Qiao nodded and took Hu Li to look at the main courtyard.

The main courtyard has an exquisite pavilion built in a small lotus pond, and the cool water vapor washes away some of the August heat.

"I don't think I need to fix it much, just find someone to clean it." Hu Li lay on the railing of the pavilion, watching the small fish swim around, and his eyes followed the small fish.

"I'll listen to you." Xiao Qiao sat next to him, watching Hu Li tease the fish in the pond, and smiled softly.

On the night he received the decree, he confessed to Xiaoli.

About his past life, about his future plans.

His original intention was to hand in his resignation after the emperor completely controlled the court, left the imperial city with Hu Li, and accompanied him to Xianshan Island first, and then to the country on the other side of the sea to travel.

That night, after Hu Li listened, he was so moved that he took the initiative to kiss Xiao Qiao for the first time.

Thinking of Hu Li's appearance at that time, Xiao Qiao bent his good-looking eyes.

Xiao Qiao and Hu Li moved into the new Prime Minister's Mansion after Xiao Jinghao got married, and Xiao Jinghao's marriage has always been handled by the old lady. He Zhaohua, who went to the northwest before, was called back by the old lady of the He family when Emperor Guangxi succeeded to the throne, and Xiao Jinghao married a brother of the same clan who was good friends with He Zhaohua after a year of national funeral.

On the day Xiao Jinghao got married, Xiao Qiao and Hu Li went to give him a congratulatory gift, which was different from the congratulatory gift given to Xiao Jingshu at that time, and the congratulatory gift to Xiao Jing was one of the two perfect maids specially transferred by Xiao Qiao from the Hanshan Pavilion, and the other was the health pill that Hu Li really refined himself, and even saved Xiao Jinghao's life later.

After Xiao Jing got married, the old lady was idle, but the old lady was enthusiastic about the lifelong events of the younger generations. Needless to say, Xiao Qiao has already confessed that he wants to be with Hu Li, and don't mention such a lifelong event, so as not to make the old lady feel depressed, but there is also a Xiao Hongyong who has a sweetheart early!

Xiao Hongyong went to Yu's house to propose marriage as early as Xiao Qiao told the old lady and Xiao's father about his relationship with Hu Li, but it was during the national funeral, and the marriage was postponed.

Now that the old lady is in love with helping the juniors manage lifelong affairs, Xiao Hongyong was arrested as a strong man, so that when Xiao Hongyong went to the barracks the next day, he was thoroughly laughed at by his colleagues. Even the steady General Weng said casually when he met him, "Congratulations!" ”

Well, the news of the Imperial City is still spreading very quickly!

Xiao Qiao and Hu Li had already packed up and moved to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and in addition to the people who had been waiting in the courtyard, they were the old lady and Xiao's father. The old lady sent all the powerful male servants, while Xiao's father sent beautiful women, and Xiao's father still didn't support Xiao Qiao and Hu Li's affairs.

It's a pity that with Hu Li, the real vixen, these fake vixens have little room to play. One by one, they were sent by Xiao Qiao to the original Ying'e's hands, and became the first few members of Ying'e's women's army.

When they moved there, it was already October, and the golden autumn season was the most suitable time for traveling. However, Prime Minister Xiao Dacheng will not be able to travel as he wishes in a short time. The court is at the most critical moment, in addition to the few factions that initially supported several princes, the court is also divided into three factions.

One faction is conservative, believing that now is the time for Da Yu to recuperate, and should not send troops everywhere to fight, especially for Xiao Qiao, who has been training sailors since the opening of the sea; The other faction is the radical faction, who coincides with Emperor Guangxi and Xiao Qiao militarily, believing that Dayu is the country rich and the people are strong, and it should promote the national prestige and create a larger territory; The last faction is the Xiao Qiao faction, which has formed a scale, they are mavericks, never "go with the same stream" as the other two factions, and are deeply trusted by the emperor, including the new Hubu Shangshu and the new Gongbu Shangshu.

These days, Xiao Qiao is discussing with Emperor Guangxi about the time to subjugate all the small countries on the islands around Dayu in the east into the territory of Dayu. And the conservatives and radicals are already fighting over this matter, and Emperor Guangxi thinks this is a good opportunity to eradicate dissidents, and he also allows them to fight like shrews in the vegetable market in the court!

At the small court meeting, Xiao Qiao stood at the front of the civil officials, silently letting the people behind argue, quoting scriptures one by one, and what he said was not good!

Emperor Guangxi sat on the top, holding his cheek with one hand and watching them quarrel one by one, without any respect at all.

Listening to their quarrel at this time, it is better to go to the queen's palace to see his Jialin, thinking of the chubby Jialin, with a tender face and soft little hands, Emperor Guangxi chuckled.

The ministers who were arguing at the bottom suddenly paused, what did your majesty mean by this smile?

"Ladies and gentlemen, Aiqing has discussed the results, since this is the case, then according to what the prime minister said, after the spring after the year, Dayu's iron cavalry will definitely set foot in the east." Emperor Guangxi didn't care where they quarreled, since they stopped, they stopped arguing.

The conservative ministers suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted "Majesty xià three thoughts", while the radical ministers also knelt on the ground and chanted "Majesty xià wise".

The two parties were facing each other like black-eyed chickens again, and Emperor Guangxi looked at the few people who were stirring up trouble in the two parties, and the corners of his mouth were hooked and he smiled like Xiao Qiao who was standing below.

Not to mention, this time, His Majesty listened to Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's slander and prepared to send troops to attack various island countries in the east, which made many mainstays of the court heartbroken. Another holy decree that followed shocked the entire imperial city, and His Majesty sealed a king with a different surname - the king of Li!

The previous king with a different surname had just been taken down a few years ago, and His Majesty must have been bewitched by Prime Minister Xiao again, after all, the person who was sealed lived in Prime Minister Xiao's mansion. It is said to be the younger brother of Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's old friend, but most people do not believe it, and they insist that the king who was named the king with a different surname is a puppet of Xiao Chengxiang.

Not to mention the other people in the Imperial City, even Xiao Qiao and Hu Li were a little confused by this holy decree, and Emperor Guangxi didn't communicate with them when he issued the decree.

The newly appointed leaving king was congratulated with a smile and congratulations to the little eunuch who came over to issue the decree, and he knew with a confused face that he had a royal mansion, and by the way, he had a reward of thousands of hectares of fields and a full treasury.

No matter what all parties in the imperial city think, this king with a different surname has been sealed, unless Hu Li does something rebellious, otherwise this king with a different surname will really fall on Hu Li's head.

However, before the impact of the king with a different surname passed, Emperor Guangxi began to muffle and amplify the thunder again, but this time, except for the common people who were a little surprised by this, both the ministers and Xiao Qiao were all happy for this holy decree.

His Majesty actually decreed that Prime Minister Xiao Cheng should be married, no, no, it should be a marriage to the newly appointed divorced king. The two parties to the marriage are Liwang and Xiao Chengxiang, so is this His Majesty finally realizing that Xiao Chengxiang is plotting against him?

Then it doesn't seem to be a big deal to leave the king to be crowned, two men are together, and there are no descendants anyway, this is just this one of the king's top of the sky.

Just when everyone was speculating whether Prime Minister Xiao Cheng was going to start fighting back, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng accepted the holy decree with a smile, and even began to talk about the wedding.

Everyone couldn't help but feel even more uplifted, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng was really a traitor, so he could endure it, which shows the depth of his city and his ruthless temperament.

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, who was deep in the city, was leaving the palace with a red face and smoke above his head, but he didn't have time to care about what the adults thought.

"Unhappy?" Xiao Qiao hugged the person in his arms and kissed his neck affectionately, his voice was low and a little indistinct.

"No, no!" Hu Li blew up, but the warmth from his neck made him smooth his hair again.

"Well, since our Royal Highness is not unhappy, do you want to discuss our wedding with me." Xiao Qiao turned the person around, faced him, looked at Hu Li's flushed face and smiled.

Hu Li lowered his head and thought about it, and pursed his lips, "I have to sue Grandpa." ”

"Well, of course, it's time to sue him for the old man." Xiao Qiao nodded, he also hoped to be blessed by Grandpa Hu.

"Brother Xiao, the ceremony of forming a partner there is different from here," Hu Li thought for a while, and put his forehead on Xiao Qiao's forehead, and a small stream of memory passed along the spiritual power.

After Xiao Qiao finished reading it, he had to say that Hu Li's ceremony there was more to his heart. Although the ritual here declares that the world is married, there is nothing to restrain it, but the ritual that Hu Li said is supervised by the Heavenly Dao, and if it violates the rules set by the Heavenly Dao, it will be punished by the Heavenly Dao.

"The preparation for the wedding is more troublesome, even if His Majesty sends the Internal Affairs Office to help, it will have to be busy for a while, after all, it is according to the ceremony of the prince." Xiao Qiao touched his chin, his narrow eyes were full of smiles, "Maybe we should first follow your ritual and form a Taoist couple, what do you say?" ”

Hu Li's face turned red again, but thinking that Taoist couples were one of the strongest relationships in this world, Hu Li couldn't wait to nod, "Okay!" When Grandpa came, we asked Grandpa to help us preside over the Taoist ceremony. ”

"Huh? Can't we ourselves? Xiao Qiao raised his eyebrows and asked.

Hu Li pursed his lips and shook his head, "No, it's just that there are a lot of things we don't know, grandpa has lived a long time and knows a lot, I don't want to go on a business trip!" ”
