In the late summer and early autumn, Emperor Yonglong asked Xu Jince to return to Jinling to report on his work. Because Beijiang and Beiyan were still negotiating peace, Xu Jince did not come in person, but the two brothers Ji Honghuan and Ji Hongxuan came.

Since Tuoba Tao's death, the Northern Yan has not violated the northern frontier. Northern Xinjiang has never taken the initiative to provoke war, but this time Xu Jince chose to take action against Beiyan when he was recuperating.

The disparity in strength between Northern Yan and Northern Xinjiang was huge, and after not having the secret support of Southern Chudu, they almost surrendered without fighting. The courtiers in Jinling had different opinions, and some said that Daning was a big country in the Celestial Empire, and that it could not do anything invasive, which would damage the reputation of the country.

It is also said that Xu Jince just inherited the Zhenbei Palace, and he did such a thing, which is obviously to establish his prestige. Northern Xinjiang is already vast, and the army and the people are united, if the Northern Yan is collected again, the momentum will not be suppressed.

Speaking of which, they are all afraid that Northern Xinjiang will become stronger, and they are even more afraid that Northern Xinjiang will have a heart of disobedience. After all, the last time he saw death and didn't save him, he had already made Northern Xinjiang have a different heart. If it weren't for the bad exchanges with other small countries, Jinling would definitely send troops to the northern Xinjiang.

Daning was once very glorious, a great country in the Celestial Empire, and worshiped all over the world. It's just that the inaction of the courtiers and party strife in recent years have weakened the national strength a lot. Moreover, in the past two years, there have been famines, and the imperial court has not done a good job of pacifying and relieving disasters, and many areas have already complained.

It's not that Daning doesn't want to fight now, but he doesn't dare to fight. Therefore, Emperor Yonglong recruited Xu Jince into Beijing. The main purpose is nothing more than to explore his attitude and seek a way to recruit peace.

Xu Jince did not come, he despised Shengwei, and the courtiers naturally criticized him. Some people even suggested that the two envoys who came should be disposed of well and give Xu Jince a prestige.

Everyone in the court made righteous accusations one by one, but when someone said that these two envoys were Ji Shoufu's younger brothers, the court suddenly fell silent.

Today's Ji Shoufu is not only in control of the cabinet, with his current power, he can be called a generation of powerful ministers. It is said that these two little generals sent by Northern Xinjiang are deeply valued by Xu Jince.

Now that they know that they have this relationship with Ji Shoufu, Zhenbei Wangfu may also become Ji Shoufu's party. Moreover, Ji Shoufu's wife is the county lord of Zhenbei Wangfu, although the county lord is short-lived, but after all, he gave birth to Ji Shoufu's eldest son.

In this way, I am afraid that Ji Shoufu's strength will be even stronger. King Xun doesn't need to say much, now he is a showcase. He put all his energy into bringing down King Hui, and now he has no power except for the support of Huang Guifei.

The prime minister originally firmly controlled the government, but in recent years, he doesn't seem to pay much attention to the fighting, and there is always a taste of watching the fire from the other side. Including the annual palace examination, it is obviously the best time to train people for himself, but he missed it.

On the contrary, it is Ji Shoufu, and now it can be said that the world is full of peach and plum. Especially after the former Dali Temple Secretary Shen Qingzheng returned to his hometown, almost all the fresh blood pouring into the court was related to Ji Shoufu.

Even if you don't have the eyesight, you can see at this time that Ji Shoufu is not involved in party disputes, because people can obviously be their own faction.

Those who said that they were going to cook these two little generals who had entered Jinling with fire oil, and for a moment their mouths were like swallowing a fly, and they couldn't spit it out or swallow it.

They secretly looked at Ji Hongye one by one, hoping to see from under his calm face whether Ji Shoufu was angry or not? Of course they couldn't see anything, and the more they couldn't understand it, the more panicked they became, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads one by one.

Even if Ji Hongye didn't move, he knew what everyone was like now. He secretly praised Xu Jince in his heart, as the lord of the northern frontier, he naturally couldn't come to Jinling easily, otherwise it was likely that there would be no return.

Xu Jince also knew that his behavior would definitely anger the saint, and the envoys sent at that time were afraid that they would be more than lucky. And with his two younger brothers in hand, he could not sit idly by.

Even if he can really be ruthless, Jinling, the high-ranking officials of the court who are most good at watching the limelight, will definitely show mercy. Now, who dares not to give him face?

He didn't want to do anything, and now this rotten court needs to be reformed. The growing strength of northern Xinjiang will make them aware of the danger, and people can only have amazing combat effectiveness when they are highly prepared.

Of course, he didn't expect these people to have any higher sentiments, but when they saved their lives, it must be the time to make Daning stronger.

After he became the first assistant of the cabinet, he didn't dare to guarantee anything else, but the development of the court must be benign. If you want to make him shaded, you must make a deed, otherwise, he will not even look at it.

When Ji Hongxuan and Ji Honghuan arrived, he, who had always kept his eyes level, couldn't help but look sideways. Since these two boys were released to Northern Xinjiang, they have grown at an astonishing speed, and now they are two handsome young people.

Ji Hongxuan was wearing armor, he was the leader of the army, and he was called the brave general in the Xuanjia army. Especially in the past two years, he has almost become the most powerful general under Xu Jince, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he has won a hundred battles.

Ji Honghuan is also dressed in military uniform, he has not made much progress in kung fu in recent years, but he is thoughtful and knows how to arrange troops.

He has always been by Ji Hongxuan's side, and the two brothers have a tacit understanding of each other, so that they have the reputation of being invincible and invincible.

He is not as famous as Ji Hongxuan outside, but he is very prestigious in the army, and the soldiers' admiration for him is even higher than that of Ji Hongxuan. It's just that because he doesn't charge into battle, he doesn't get any imposing titles, and the soldiers call him General Ji.

Both of them had swords on them, but they were taken down as early as when they entered the palace. When they went to the court, they had to bow down to the Son of Heaven, and their brothers' movements were neat and consistent, so that people couldn't find a trace of fault.

Ji Hongxuan's body shook significantly when he got up, but fortunately, Ji Honghuan beside him stepped out in time to help him, otherwise he might have fallen a little ugly.

Ji Hongye found that Ji Hongxuan should have an injury on his left leg, and it was injured in the joint, which restricted his movement. If it weren't for the severity of the injury, I wouldn't have almost fallen just now.

The child who used to cry in front of him when he was injured is now grown up and looks good. He once felt angry because Ji Hongxuan was thinking about Ah Jin.

After all, he is his younger brother who has been hurt since he was a child, how can he give it to his wife? But after a few years, he gradually figured it out, and the young man's heart and feelings naturally come and go quickly.

He, he has forgiven him.

Ji Hongxuan and Ji Honghuan are used to the wilderness in Northern Xinjiang, and when they return to Jinling, they are face saints, which makes them very unaccustomed to it. From the moment they stepped into the palace gate, the two of them maintained a high level of tension.

When the eyes of the two of them turned to Ji Hongye in unison, their hearts suddenly became peaceful. The third brother is now in a high position, and he is a character who will stomp his feet and stomp on the Jinling court, with him, what are they afraid of?

"I've heard that the two of you are very popular in the Xuanjia Army, yes and no. Emperor Yonglong's voice sounded very oppressive, and it was obviously a question but it was said in a declarative tone, and he was a little more sure in the dark.

Ji Honghuan lowered his head and replied respectfully: "Returning to the Holy Lord, it is true." ”

Of course, he knows that he has to keep his light and keep his secret, but if he shouldn't inherit it, he won't be able to be a saint on a high level, and he will say that he will let people come to face the saint at will, blaming the prince for despising the emperor's authority.

He thinks so, and others don't. They probably had never seen such a brazen person in this court, and they immediately sneered.

Ji Hongxuan saw everyone's expressions, and was about to say something, but Ji Honghuan pulled down his sleeves. He also found that he was in a bad situation now, so he pressed back the words that came to his lips.

Of course, Emperor Yonglong would not be as superficial as those people, his expression did not change, he just stroked his beard with his hands, and said slowly: "You two are Ji Shoufu's younger brothers?"

Isn't this knowingly asked?

Ji Hongxuan glanced at Ji Honghuan, who still maintained the posture just now, and replied in a low voice: "Yes." ”

"The Ji family can be the pillars of the three of you, and it should be commended by Daning. After speaking, he beckoned to the eunuch beside him and ordered: "Wait until the morning court drafts the holy decree, I want to reward the Ji family well, and the specific process will be handed over to the Ministry of Rites." ”

Generally speaking, which high-ranking official the saint wants to reward is handled by the internal assistant. Because this is not an official and a knight, naturally there is no need for the Ministry of Etiquette to come forward. I have to say that Emperor Yonglong's arrangement today is indeed worth pondering.

Ji Hongxuan had never bothered to understand this, and he didn't feel anything wrong at this time. It was Ji Honghuan who faintly felt that this was not a good thing. Cooking oil with fire and blooming flowers is often a sign of decline.

Emperor Yonglong was not a broad-minded person, which can be seen from his attitude towards the Zhenbei Royal Mansion and Northern Xinjiang. He must have his intentions in doing this today.

"The reputation of the brave general is not known, and I know in Jinling that you have won many battles. But your name is too casual, so I might as well give you another one. ”

After Emperor Yonglong said this, he looked at Ji Hongxuan intently, as if asking for his opinion. Whose life does the Ninety-Five Supreme want is just a matter of one sentence, but now he has to take care of a frontier general like this?

Everyone had different expressions, but what was the same was that they all turned their eyes to Ji Hongxuan at the same time. Ji Hongxuan bowed and saluted, and said loudly: "But it is up to the saint to decide." ”

Emperor Yonglong's eyebrows widened, and he said with a smile: "The title is related to the fortune of the future, so naturally you can't take it casually, especially if you are a prince." ”

A party of princes?

Ji Hongxuan couldn't figure out how he became a prince, so he subconsciously went to see Ji Honghuan. Seeing his solemn expression, he also roughly understood what was going on. Although he has a rough temperament, he is not stupid......
