Chapter 709: The Duke of the Kingdom
In the next few days, although Wang Xiao was very happy, he also had a very hard time, more tired than when he was fighting.
There are a large number of official affairs every day, and he needs to arrange a serious matter by himself, and he needs to appear in person on many occasions. In private, it is a reunion with Tang Qianqian after a long absence, and it is the first taste with Qin Xiaozhu, and both sides can't afford to be lazy.
He was very grateful to Chunning, and it was Chunning who pulled Qin Xiaozhu to sleep peacefully with him every night, which allowed him to have time to rest and cope with the busy day......
But there is also a good thing.
The so-called 'gift' that Huazhi brought into the city was actually to put Wang Jue, Luo Yuan, and Cen Zhaoxian back. found a few men and threw the three people who were tied up in Dezhou City, which can be regarded as the sincerity of the temporary truce of the Darui Dynasty.
Some people on the Chu Dynasty officials suspected that these three people were sent by the thieves to work hard, and some people thought that their lives were too great, but Wang Xiao knew that it was also Tang Qianqian who spent a lot of effort to save Wang Jue's life.
As for Luo Yuan and Cen Zhaoxian, Wang Jue actually made a bold statement - "If they die, I will die with them." β
If Luo and Cen are really dead, most likely Wang Jue will not die. But they were finally rescued.
Wang Jue stepped over the brazier, saw his family, hugged Bi Yi and cried bitterly, finally stopped crying, and when he saw his infant son, he cried again.
"Wow...... It's all the lobby brother who hurt me...... I can't see my son until now. β
Then he was scolded by Wang Qin.
"Evil animal, who doesn't fight for the future with his life, he is not satisfied when he comes back with good arms and legs, if it weren't for the great opportunity that Brother Zhen'er gave you, you would still be eating waste waiting for death."
"Dad, you're too ruthless! You don't know how worried and scared the child is in the same Da Rui Dynasty......"
"Da Rui Dynasty? Little rabbit cub, you come over to Lao Tzu, don't skin you, you want to kill the Wang family, don't you?! β
After making such a fuss, Wang Jue was taken out to see Zhou Yan, and at that time he was still thinking indignantly about what kind of broken father he was, and no one else had ever been so fierce to him......
~~
Zhou Yan is meeting with Luo Yuan and Cen Zhaoxian.
"I heard that Luo Qing planned to die when he was imprisoned, but was stopped by Cen Qing?" Mobile phone one second to remember the "Idea Chinese Network β" to provide you with wonderful \ novel reading.
Luo Yuan didn't answer with a straight face. Cen Zhaoxian had already stepped forward and said: "Yes, because Weichen thought that His Majesty and His Royal Highness were still there, and because he had a useful body to serve his family and country, he stopped Luo Langzhong." Otherwise, Weichen will be martyred together. β
"Well, you're good. When the palace arrives in Jinan, he must play his father and reward the two family secretaries for their contributions. Zhou Yan said lightly.
He sat upright on the throne and had the demeanor of a king.
"The minister doesn't dare to take credit, he only hopes that Da Chu will do his meager strength." Cen Zhaoxian hurriedly bowed.
Luo Yuan was a little dazed, and asked Zhou Yan: "I am in charge of the Ministry of Rites, dare to ask where is the Ministry of Rites now?" Shangshu and Shilang are available? If none of these are available, then dare to ask again? Your Majesty in Jinan? His Royal Highness is in Texas. How was His Highness made a prince? Can there be a canonization ceremony? My Ministry of Rites ......"
"There's no Rite Department here." Zhou Yan interrupted, and the power between his eyebrows grew. Are you questioning the falsity of the crown prince of this palace now? β
"Don't you dare? The minister is just ......"
"Luo Aiqing has been absent from the DPRK for a long time and is not familiar with the recent situation in the DPRK and China. Let's go down first. "Zhou Yandao?" Cen Aiqing, there are some things you want to inquire about? Teach Luo Aiqing again. β
"Obey."
Swing off these two? Zhou Yan corrected a few more twists and turns, and after a while, someone came in lightly.
Zhou Yan was overjoyed, looking up? Sure enough, it was Wang Jue.
"Wow. Look at you...... Now he is the prince again. Wang Jue exclaimed? His mouth was slurking, "The last time we met, you were still King Qi, hey, this dress is newly made, isn't it fine?" Not up to your position. β
The two haven't seen each other for a long time, and Zhou Yanben is still worried about Wang Jue's restraint? I didn't expect to be embarrassed to meet Fang Bo, and there was nothing in my mouth.
- Sure enough, it's still the one who dared to marry Yahuan when he made Yahuan's belly bigger.
Zhou Yan is getting more and more happy? hurriedly drove away all the eunuchs around him, and said with a smile: "Have you seen your son?" Ha? How old are you to have a son? It's not like a father. β
"Thinking every day when you were over there? When I came back, this kid was so ugly. I'm going to have another ...... Hey, Your Highness, why don't you even have pastries here...... It's hard to be a prince, isn't it? Your Highness, you are so haggard, not like you are in your twenties, like you are in your twenties......"
The two sat and talked in His Royal Highness, Zhou Yan actually had nothing to say, and told him about the last time he deceived Song Xin and Song Li, and said with a smug smile at the end: "I finally played a trick, and in the end, I told my mother that I was taught a lesson." I thought it would be nice if you were here. β
"Your Highness, what are you," Wang Jue sneered and said, "I've encountered a lot of things over there." You know that, right? The anti-thief, everyone who is an official and a military general, is born recklessly, kills people without blinking, and any person who takes it out has hundreds of lives under his hands, ah, I deal with them every day, but I am scared to death......"
"There is a little man over there named Gao Xingsheng, who used to be a fortune teller, and he likes to curse people in a weird way all day long, and once he took a bowl for me to see, saying what is the porcelain of the Song Dynasty. When I looked at it, it was a broken bowl from the Song Dynasty. I was too embarrassed to tell him, lest the old boy be angry and angry, so I followed him and said that it was worthless. As a result, he insisted on selling me and made me put a handprint...... The damn changed the big courtyard of my Wang family...... Ah, I'm so......"
Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "What happened later?" β
"There is a man named Suo Pei, who is a cronie of the anti-thief leader, and it is okay for me, I heard about this and went to trouble Xingsheng, and the two of them fought, and Xingsheng couldn't beat Suo Pei, so he returned the yard to me...... But that Sopei's eyes lit up every time he saw me, and I was scared, so I lied to him and said I was sick......"
"What disease?"
"Your Highness, you don't understand." Wang Jue sighed: "Alas, in short, those people, all of them have a temper, that is, a clever person like me can come back alive." Your Highness, you don't know, if it weren't for my cleverness, Luo Yuan would have died more than a hundred times! Because of him, I don't know how many people pretended to be grandchildren......"
Zhou Yan listened to these things with relish.
His attitude towards the thief is actually different from what others imagine, he was born in the emperor's family, and since he was a child, he regarded the people of the world as his own people. When his people starve to death, he will feel that it is his own loss. The people can't live and rebel, and he will feel responsible.
Of course, the official gritted his teeth when he mentioned the anti-thief, but in Zhou Yan's heart, he didn't know these people. What Tang Zhongyuan and King Wu Yan are just symbols, they just became a thing in the end, otherwise they are no different from the hundreds of anti-thief leaders before, and they can't remember their names.
So listening to these at this time, Zhou Yan only felt like listening to a story, and finally sighed: "Alas, if the wind and rain were smooth, there would not be so many thieves." β
"Your Highness, you have a really big heart."
"You don't understand, it's hard to govern the country. So far, I don't hate anyone, I just feel that heaven and earth are unkind......"
Wang Jue didn't understand this, and said happily: "Fortunately, I'm finally back." β
Zhou Yan nodded and said, "What do you do next, my brother-in-law has already arranged it, he found a gentleman to teach some people Franc machine talk, you also go to learn, go back and talk to Franc machine people about business, buy cannons, ......"
"Huh?" Wang Jue was stunned for a moment and muttered, "What are you learning?" When will it be arranged? How I don't know. β
"Furlong talked." Zhou Yan said: "Brother-in-law said that those people are very good, and this is a large amount of silver, you have to find someone who is thick-skinned and can bargain, you are still suitable." By the way, this palace will give you an official. β
He actually has a lot of power in his hands now, but he usually doesn't have much to do with his power for personal gain. At this time, it is quite generous to seize the opportunity to perform.
"Hmm...... You first became a master in Honglu Temple, and when you go back and learn the Buddha Lang Ji to buy a cannon, I will seal you a temple ......"
Wang Jue was stunned when he heard this.
He looked stupid, but in his heart, he didn't say it himself. If you want to refuse, it is better to take the opportunity to make some benefits. Then he said: "Your Highness, can I not go?" "Idea Chinese the first issue of the network βγ‘γΟΟΟ s:// ΟΟΟ.sγzΟΟ.cΞΠΌ γΟΟΟ s:// ΠΌ.sγzΟΟ.cΞΠΌγ€
"How's that going to work? You have worked hard to return to Dachu, if this palace does not reward you, it will not be good to spread it. β
"But...... That's what I want. β
If Zhou Yan hadn't heard any nonsense, he smiled when he heard the words, and said, "What do you want, don't go around the palace." β
"Hey, hey. Your Highness, I heard that we are going to Jinan soon? Wang Jue smiled and said: "Look, since I can also be an official, after I arrive in Jinan, can you seal a house for me?" Just a little one. I want to move out with my wife and children, not with my dad......"
Zhou Yan turned his head and looked at Wang Jue's expectant eyes, and couldn't help but be stunned.
"yes, why wouldn't I want to move out?"
"Your Highness, you can't, if you want to move out, that's like Emperor Ruizong, you want to leave an infamy......"
While the two were talking, suddenly a eunuch ran in and shouted, "Your Highness, Your Majesty has a holy decree!" β
"Divine decree?"
"Yes, the slave has sent someone to ask the Marquis of Huaiyuan to receive the order......
~~
On this day, the city of Dezhou was still busy, making final preparations for the prince and his ministers to go to Jinan.
Under the supervision of officers and soldiers, the old, young, women and children were organized by the Dezhou Gang and moved to Jinan or Laizhou with their belongings.
In the evening, several fast horses came from the south and went straight to the Texas Mansion.
"The Divine Decree to ......"
Wang Xiao was very surprised when he heard that a holy decree had come. Although he didn't think about setting up Emperor Yanguang, many political affairs are actually controlled by him now. In other words, what Emperor Yanguang wanted to make was all agreed upon by him in advance.
But this decree was not of his invocation.
- This father is going to do something again.
Thinking so in his heart, he still ran to obey the order.
The old lady who announced the decree twittered, but in fact, there was only one meaning - the king smiled as the prince of the country.
After listening to this, Wang Xiao pondered, and turned his head to look at Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan was obviously a little stunned, and at the same time turned his head to look at Wang Xiao. I thought to myself, brother-in-law, what does this mean? Do you feel like you're not treating him well enough?
The next moment, Wang Xiao shook his head lightly at Zhou Yan.
- That's not what I meant.
After a small movement, Wang Xiao took the holy decree with both hands, and his eyes were contemplative......
~~
"Xia Guan has seen Grandpa Guo."
Tang Qianqian, dressed in an official uniform and dressed as a man, saluted Wang Xiaoxiao, and the teasing smile on her face was even worse.
Wang Xiao said helplessly: "Don't make fun of me." β
"I want it." Tang Qianqian said leisurely: "Duke Yu Guo...... This country is located in Shaanxi, and it is still under the rule of my Darui Dynasty, and your emperor of Chu is generous and borrowed the name of my Darui to be knighted. β
"That's not a good thing."
"It seems that your old man is not easy to deal with. Isn't this trying to put you on the fire? β
"The main purpose is still for Zhou Yan. Of course, it doesn't necessarily mean to kill me. Wang Xiao sighed: "In this way, it will be difficult for Zhou Yan to reward me in the future, and I, the concubine, have received a duke of the country, whether it is the Chu Dynasty officials in Shandong or Nanjing, they must be wary of me in their hearts......"
Tang Qianqian nodded and said, "There is another one, he is explaining to the world that he has been set up by you." β
"I think he's telling others that he's still the emperor, so he can reward me with a duke. A will, different people have different views in their eyes. The shrewd courtiers knew that he still had power. β
"Also, since this will can be handed down, it means that Emperor Chu has recruited several more important ministers. I used these important ministers to negotiate terms with your comrades. β
"Wu Pei is here...... He Liangyuan came forward, saying that it was meritorious and unrewarded, and it was difficult to convince the public, and the officials in the capital agreed. Some of them understood, some of them didn't, thinking that this was what I meant. Hundreds of officials asked for sealing, but Qian Chengyuan couldn't stop it. My father took advantage of this and made a holy decree. Then he regained Zuo Jinglun and re-entered the cabinet. β
"It's a good move to survive. In this way, there are four members in the cabinet. Bai Yizhang and Bian Xiuyong are all your people, and He Liangyuan is Emperor Chu's people. Zuo Jinglun...... It's more about supporting Zhou Yan, right? Tang Qianqian said, "But no matter what, he finally opened up the situation." β
Wang Xiao frowned, and said, "He Liangyuan thought about it well, and took the lead in asking for a seal for me, and those who didn't know thought he was my person, heh." β
Tang Qianqian smiled slightly and said: "The military power is in your hands, what can you make trouble again, it's just a clown." β
Wang Xiao groaned: "Although the problem is not big, once you start scheming again, you will make a mistake...... Let's go back to Jinan as soon as possible......"
