Chapter 168: The Cao Family's Dilemma
In this way, Li Yuan put his hands on the hands of the little golden flower and the little princess day and night, day and night, again and again, the dantian wall was knocked open and cracked again and again, and Li Yuan swallowed the healing pill again and again.
When Li Yuan was hungry, he ate a little, and when he was really sleepy, he slept for a while. After waking up, he continued to treat the two girls.
Not to mention that Li Yuan treated two girls in the universe, but said that Emperor Xia Mingjun, after returning to the imperial city, there were a lot of things that he needed to deal with:
It is necessary to deal with the affairs of the great prince; the Cao family, the Huang family, and the Sun family are imprisoned in prison for more than 100,000 people; the eastern battlefield and the northwest battlefield are still facing each other; the families of the soldiers who died on the various battlefields and in the imperial city need to be compensated, and the wounded soldiers need to be treated; military merits need to be evaluated; it is necessary to urge the four eastern island countries and the two northwestern countries to surrender and collect tribute from these surrendered countries; it is necessary to choose addresses for the Nanyue County and Chushan City families and build mansions for them; and these five martial arts sects must also serve like their ancestors.
However, although there were so many cumbersome things, Xia Mingjun's heart was extremely excited and excited: The war was won, a miraculous victory! The mood was relaxed, and the mountain pressing on his heart dissipated! And in this imperial city, the second prince has grown up after the tempering of the war, and he can take charge of himself. Prime Minister Jiang Shouxian has always been loyal to the Great Xia Kingdom, and he has been sleeping for the country.
Xia Mingjun first personally accompanied the five Martial Sects to the Yixin Hall to rest, he sent a large group of palace maids to serve the five Martial Sects, and ordered the entire palace people to immediately carry out any requirements and orders for the five Martial Sects, and no one was allowed to have any disrespect to them.
After settling the five martial sects, Emperor Xia Mingjun first informed Xia Mingcai, the head of the palace, and asked him to arrange it, and he would hold a grand banquet in the evening, one for the five martial sects to wash the dust, and then to celebrate the victory of the war.
After arranging these two things, Xia Mingjun came to the Jinluan Palace, he first summoned the civil and military ministers of the court, in the summons, Xia Mingjun formally expressed his gratitude to the civil and military ministers of the court, thanks to the civil and military ministers of the court, after the treason of the prince, the civil and military ministers took a firm and resolute position to fight with the Cao family patriarch and others, and finally destroyed the Cao family patriarch and others, and protected the safety of the imperial city.
These civil and military ministers all expressed their loyalty to Emperor Xia Mingjun to the Great Xia Kingdom and to Xia Mingjun.
After meeting with the civil and military ministers of the court, Xia Mingjun gathered his family members in the palace. He comforted everyone with the harm caused by the rebellion of the eldest prince and the patriarch of the Cao family in the imperial city, and he announced that he had removed the mother of the eldest prince from the position of empress, made the mother of the second prince the empress, and decided to make the second prince the crown prince of the Great Xia Kingdom.
Xia Mingjun decided to crown Yang Mengshu as the princess of the protector, and her status was equal to that of the queen.
These decisions will be announced to the entire Imperial City and the entire Great Xia Kingdom at a later date.
Xia Mingjun once again informed Prime Minister Jiang Shouxian and discussed with him about the construction of a mansion for the five families including the Li family in Chushan City.
Jiang Shouxian said to Xia Mingjun: "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion, we have won a great victory in this war, and the national strength will be greatly improved in the future, and our imperial city will have more people in the future, and it will be more prosperous, and now our imperial city is not very big, so it will be more crowded in the future." It is better for us to expand the imperial city and increase the area of the imperial city, so that we can arrange a larger territory for several families to commend Li Yuan and Li Gongzi for their great contributions and merits in this war to protect the country, and then let more people live in the imperial city, and the imperial city will be more relaxed.
Xia Mingjun was very happy after hearing this, he completely agreed with Jiang Shouxian's proposal, and entrusted this work to Jiang Shouxian, who was solely responsible for it. After receiving this order, the prime minister immediately summoned the officials of the household department, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Officials to formulate a plan for the expansion of the imperial city, select personnel, survey the terrain, raise money, and recruit people.
Let's say that after Emperor Xia Mingjun dealt with these affairs, it was not early, the grand celebration banquet was ready, and it was about to begin, the princes and ministers in the court, the hosts of the five major families who stayed in the imperial city, and the representatives of all parties had arrived, Xia Mingjun personally led Jiang Shouxian, the second prince and others to the Yixin Palace, and invited the five martial arts sects to come to the banquet.
Dongfang Le and the others all came happily, and a grand banquet was held in the banquet hall, because Li Yuan was treating the little princess and the little golden flower in the palace of Princess Yang Mengshu, he closed the door of the small courtyard, and others didn't know about his treatment, so they didn't dare to knock on the door to disturb, so Xia Mingjun didn't invite Li Yuan to participate in this banquet.
Li Yuan didn't know about this celebration banquet, but even if he knew, he would definitely not be in the mood to participate in such a banquet, at this time he was trying his best to endure the pain of the dantian wall being hit again and again in the universe, and save the little golden flower and the little princess.
The next day, as soon as Xia Mingjun went to court, Prime Minister Jiang Shouxian reported to him that the five soldiers sent to the mountain city to destroy the Cao family came back, but they did not destroy the Cao family, because most of the Cao family ran away!
What's going on?
It turned out that the ancestor and patriarch of the Cao family sent Cao Liang to the imperial city to send a letter to Cao Tao and the Cao family in the imperial city, reporting that the three people sent by the Cao family in the imperial city to the mountain city were arrested, but when Cao Liang arrived in the imperial city, he was in time, the imperial city was in chaos, the Yang family patriarch and others captured the eldest prince alive, and killed the patriarch of the Cao family, the Sun family, and the Huang family. The clansmen of the Sun family, he also inquired about how great Li Yuan was in the imperial city, how he was valued by Emperor Xia Mingjun, and now he was resisting the attack of the Great Chen State with the emperor Xia Mingjun on the battlefield of the Flying Dragon Army, Cao Liang got the news, he was so frightened that his soul was scattered, he didn't care about sending the letter anymore, and he didn't care about looking for Cao Tao, he fled out of the imperial city in a panic, and rushed back to the mountain city day and night, returned to the Cao family, and reported the news of the great changes in the imperial city to the patriarch of the Cao family and the ancestors of the Cao family.
After listening to Cao Liang's report, the ancestor and patriarch of the Cao family were all frightened, and they discussed it together for a long time, but there was no way.
guessed that the reason why the eldest prince and the Cao family sent those three people out of the mountain city to destroy the Li family must be related to Cao Tao. Cao Tao has taken refuge in the imperial city of the Cao family and recognizes the imperial city Cao family as his own family. Now, the eldest prince and the Cao family rebelled against the Great Xia Kingdom, failed, and were caught and killed, and Li Yuan was red and purple in front of Emperor Xia Mingjun, the Cao family and the Li family are now in a state of life and death, and now there are many Li family and Wang family Wu Wang, compared with the Cao family and the Li family and the Wang family, there is a huge disparity in strength, they are simply a lamb to be slaughtered, and the Li family of the Wang family can destroy the Cao family with their hands. Not to mention that Li Yuan, who was so red and purple in front of the emperor, as long as he said a few words casually in front of the emperor, the emperor would order them to destroy the Cao family, just the Wang family and the Li family who came out of the mountain city to destroy the Cao family, and no one would talk to them and take revenge.
Several people discussed in the house of the ancestor of the Cao family for a whole day, but they couldn't think of any way, and they couldn't see any way out.
