Chapter 268: Selfishness
In one fell swoop, two enemy camps were bruised, and when the news reached Kyoto, it was just in the early days of the dynasty, and the good news came, and the whole dynasty was shocked and celebrated.
Even since the start of the War of the Four Kingdoms, there has been no news of bad news from the frontier, however, there is never a victorious general on the battlefield, and they are afraid that one day they will hear bad news, especially when they received the news that Yingxi River was placed under the Black Scorpion Gu a few hours ago. The ministers were worried that this news would affect the morale of the soldiers, worry about the people around them, worry that the soldiers would also be poisoned, and then the frontier would become an unguarded dead city.
Everyone felt that they would have a hard time during this time, and they couldn't sleep well that night.
However, they never imagined that after one night's worry, the next day they would be happy to spread good news!
And in one fell swoop, two enemy battalions were bruised!
Wiped out more than 100,000 enemy troops and died directly!
Hundreds of thousands of enemy troops were poisoned and unconscious!
At such a moment, there was nothing more exciting than hearing such news, and the courtiers were all so excited that they seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and they all congratulated the noble man sitting on the dragon chair.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Congratulations to the Emperor! Congratulations to the Emperor! ”
"Hmm." The noble man sitting on the dragon chair bowed his head lightly, and his handsome and noble face did not show much joy, however, as long as the minister who saw a little bit could see that the eyes flashed with unprecedented pride and tenderness.
They were proud as if they were talking about someone who was unique in the world.
Gentle enough for the snow to melt and time to stand still!
The courtiers, you look at me, look at each other, think of something, each gently clear his throat, try to suppress the corners of his lips that want to droop, and show a worried look.
"Zhong Aiqing, what's wrong, your throat is uncomfortable? Or did you fall for the Black Scorpion Gu? The man on the dragon chair glanced lightly at the face below that looked stiff because he suppressed the corners of his drooping lips, and said lightly.
Just such a light sentence quieted the lively hall that was originally full of coughing sounds, and he hung his head respectfully and didn't dare to make any more noise, and he secretly thought pitifully in his heart: "The emperor is really still unhappy about the news of the black scorpion Gu that came yesterday, and now he is looking for them......
However, the hall was silent for a while, and no one spoke, and the ministers were worried, obviously it was such a haode day, and it was obviously a cold sweat.
The father-in-law standing beside the noble man sighed secretly, their emperor and saint are all good, but they have fewer words, fewer expressions, and fewer smiles, and when they are happy, they will hear the words Admiral Suzaku again......
Such a festive thing, the emperor finally showed Igor's smile! What's more, such a victory was won by that woman, can't you give some face, Your Majesty?
Well, he knew that the emperor was just worried about the big and small ones on the far side of the frontier......
The father-in-law muttered in his heart, thinking that everything that should have been discussed just now had been discussed, and the emperor might have nothing to say, he tore his throat and wanted to say: "There is nothing to play and retreat from the court", however, at this time, the noble man next to him moved his beautiful lips, and said lightly with elegant eyebrows: "Zhong Aiqing, since Admiral Suzaku has made such a meritorious service, how do you think she should be rewarded?" ”
As soon as these words came out, all the courtiers looked at each other again, and then they all looked like they were about to cry.
Of course, the ministers were also open-minded, and they were not jealous of their emperor's desire to reward Admiral Suzaku and wanted to stop them, but ......
It's that they don't think there's anything to discuss!
Moreover, didn't the emperor deliberately embarrass them?!
I think that at the beginning, when they first received the victory report, that is, when the ministers heard the name of Admiral Suzaku for the first time, they asked the emperor to add an official to Admiral Suzaku and make him a marquis, but who interrupted their request and said leisurely: "Zhong Aiqing does not need to discuss how Admiral Suzaku should be rewarded, the war still has a period of time to be fought, and when the war is won, Admiral Suzaku has returned to Beijing, and I will grant her whatever she wants." ”
Whatever you want?!
The eyes of all the courtiers widened, and after staring for a while, their eyeballs did not fall out, but their eyes were sour and tearful. They really want to shoot the case and shout, Your Majesty, you can't say this casually, what if Admiral Suzaku is insatiable and wants you to give up the country?
Could it be that even so, you really can't give up the country?!
Woo, don't, your Majesty, you're too generous, okay, occasionally stingy...... Yes, you can!
Yu Wencan's words frightened all the courtiers, and they all spoke bitterly, and turned the eighteen bends of the mountain road to ask the emperor to retract the words, but their emperor seemed to not understand, elegantly and honorably supported his chin with his hands, and the corners of his beautiful lips were shallow, "Zhongqing, I believe that in the future, there will be continuous news about Admiral Suzaku's victory, and the matter of rewarding her will be put on hold, and she will return to Beijing...... It's never too late to deliberate. ”
Yu Wencan's words directly cut off all the thoughts of everyone, and they originally made up their minds to ask the emperor to retract the previous sentence, but when they heard the words, they had to obediently close their mouths and not squeak.
Although they don't say anything, they still remember it in their hearts.
And the more thoughts in my heart, the more confused my heart becomes.
The first thing is, when did the Four Great Frontiers have such a person as Admiral Suzaku, why have they never heard of it before?
Besides, what kind of person, what kind of person, what kind of family background, is that Admiral Suzaku has such talents?
The doubts in the hearts of the courtiers were tacitly understood, and then they tacitly united to investigate the Suzaku Admiral who suddenly stood up.
The secrecy of the barracks has been done very well, they have only found some fur after checking for a long time, however, just these little bit of information are enough to frighten them, the big officials who are used to seeing big scenes, almost faint!
It turns out that Zhu, Admiral Suzaku is a woman!
Moreover, she she she ...... It turned out to be the princess who they all thought was dead!
That legendary ghost girl!
For the former princess of respect, everyone is familiar with it. Thinking that the emperor has gone from the prince to the current yellow robe, because of his own reasons, the wives and concubines around him have always been happy, but no one is as respectful as the princess who was born in the fourth rank of the Rongfu
People are profound!
I think that at the beginning, their first impression of the respectful princess was rude and rude, arrogant and uninhibited, not only dared to openly whip the empress dowager, but also dared to openly refute the empress dowager and the empress dowager, so that for a while, everyone had a very bad impression of her.
However, such a woman can play the piano and chess well.
Her piano sound should only be in the sky, and her chess skills can compete with the Shengguo Taifu!
Anyone who heard her piano was unforgettable, whether it was the court musicians or Ishii musicians, they all tried to get the score of that piece and wanted to perform such a divine comedy, and after that day, almost no one in the group did not know her.
However, such a woman suddenly disappeared a few years ago, and no one has ever seen her again.
Later, some people rumored that she died of illness, and some people said that she was bold and reckless, trespassing on Zhuwolf Mountain, and never returned......
After that banquet, Princess Gong Jin became a popular figure for everyone, and later there are various accounts of her disappearance, but no one really knows where she went, but everyone thinks that she is no longer in the world......
And the fact that the person who had long been absent from the world suddenly appeared, and became the respected Admiral Suzaku by everyone, I am afraid that there is nothing more unbelievable in the world.
However, even if they didn't believe it, the good news of victory came again and again, and everywhere they went, where was there no recitation of Admiral Suzaku's deeds? Is there anyone who doesn't know Admiral Suzaku?
Admiral Suzaku has such a high voice, and the courtiers have been mixed up with human spirits for decades, and under such a trend, in such troubled times, gradually, they have to have a thought in their minds-
Admiral Suzaku...... Will it be the imperial actress!
Master Xuanlong once said that the emperor actress is a royal person. And Admiral Suzaku is the former princess of respect, she is undoubtedly a royal person!
Hundreds of years ago, the emperor actress was famous for her bravery, kindness and kindness, protecting the prosperity of the country, and was regarded as the actress of the emperor by the world! And Admiral Suzaku is brave and good at fighting, and his heart is kind...... I heard that she has always done things with clear rewards and punishments, never takes innocent people's lives, finds ways to reduce sacrifices, and thinks about the soldiers and the people in everything...... Can a person who can do such a thing just be kind and kind?
It can be directly called a bodhisattva's heart!
A royal person, brave and good at fighting, a bodhisattva heart, protecting the country, everything she has is a hundred times more in line with the person who was once rumored to be the emperor actress!
You must know that beauty cannot be the criterion for judging the emperor actress!
What's the use of only having the beauty of Allure, in the end it's not easy to be disfigured, and now it's not just that you dare to shrink in the palace and don't dare to come out to see people! If such a person is an imperial actress, if it is really an imperial actress, then the worship and value of the existence of the imperial actress are really questionable!
No, it's not just questioning, it's just making people laugh out of their teeth!
The emperor actress must be like Admiral Suzaku, not only daring, brave and sonorous, but also full of legends!
When the courtiers found the truth, they knew everything, and as long as they mentioned Admiral Suzaku, it was like beating chicken blood. As for what Yu Wencan once said, she will give whatever she wants, and she no longer has any objections.
However, it was because there were no objections that they now wanted to cry when they heard Yu Wencan's mention of rewarding Admiral Suzaku again.
Your Majesty, there has only been one queen in your harem for four years, and you have never stepped into the harem for four years, and there is no one in the harem. Is it because you are worried that the Black Scorpion Gu will be harmful to Admiral Suzaku, so you directly recalled her to Kyoto for a reward, so that she could not face any danger?
Your Majesty, don't bring this, please be wise and martial, you take state affairs as the priority, we all need Admiral Suzaku in Daying, at such a time, for your own 'selfishness', call Admiral Suzaku back, wouldn't it put the old white surname in danger?
Besides, didn't you say that the reward was only given after the war ended, and now that the war is not over, and you don't know when it will end, wouldn't it be a little earlier for you to give the reward now?
You are sure that you will not ...... by doing so Does it hurt your word?
Of course, the courtiers didn't dare to say these words casually, and they all held it in their hearts.
However, in the face of the straight gaze of the man on the dragon chair, the courtiers could only say in addition to cold sweat: "Your Majesty, the reward is good, the reward is good, we are going to discuss how to reward it......"
In fact...... Where to discuss!
Of course, it's okay to want to discuss it, there are some things they have long wanted to discuss and solve them.
"Your Majesty, the queen mother lost her morality and honor many years ago, not only did she not show anything for many years, but also failed to fulfill her mother's honor in the world, and even humiliated my Daying...... Scrapped! ”
Regarding the matter of the abolition, since the scandal came out, there have been ministers who have raised it, but it has not been successful.
There are many factors that have not succeeded, after all, it is not that if you want to abolish it, you must know that it is a troubled time, and the queen's father is still the main force of the war, so you have to give a few thin noodles, so there have always been people who oppose the abolition of the post.
Therefore, regarding the matter of the abolition, the two sides who agree with the abolition and those who do not agree with the abolition began to quarrel.
Yu Wencan held his chin with his hand, and watched with a calm and cold gaze on his noble face.
Just when everyone was discussing enthusiastically, a figure quietly turned out of a dark place and quietly approached Yu Wencan's side.
When the sharp-eyed ministers saw that figure, they all knew that he was Xiahou, a very secretive and crucial person who followed him when he was the emperor or a prince, and they had all seen him.
Therefore, the ministers only glanced at Xiahou and didn't pay attention to him anymore, and discussed what was on their lips.
Xiahou walked coldly beside Yu Wencan, and said a word in Yu Wencan's ear in a voice that Yu Wencan could only hear.
I don't know what he said, but I saw the originally quiet and handsome noble man suddenly stood up from the dragon chair, and looked straight at Xiahou with a pair of handsome eyes, "What?!" Really?! ”
The courtiers were taken aback, they had never seen Yu Wencan so excited, so they thought about what happened to the frontier, and saw Xiahou Guo nodding lightly in response to Yu Wencan's question, "Yes." After that, the courtiers also saw that Xiahou Guo's usually cold face was unusually gentle, and even curled his lips, and said: "I heard that I will arrive in Kyoto in two days, and the letter tells the emperor to greet ...... well."
