Imperial City, Imperial Study.

Emperor Qin was dressed in ink-colored clothes, sitting behind the table, and was casually flipping through the music. Gonggong Zhang bowed down and stood behind Emperor Qin, waiting for the pen and ink.

The crown prince Fu Hong was sitting opposite Emperor Qin, talking softly, although Emperor Qin's eyes were on the music, but Fu Hong knew that Emperor Qin was listening to him carefully.

Emperor Qin has long been accustomed to dual-mindedness, and decades of imperial career have allowed him to master the most efficient methods of handling government affairs.

"This Gaochufu just asked for food at the end of last year, and this year he asked for money again. I look at our King of Goguryeo, who regards the imperial court as his cash cow! ”

Emperor Qin pinched a piece of music in his hand, muttered a few words to himself mockingly, did not criticize it, and casually threw it to the right side of the desk. This is to stay in the middle and not send it, indicating that His Majesty does not agree with what is being played. The only difference between retention and rejection is that it saves a little face for the sparse person.

Fu Hong glanced at the seal, and sneered in his heart. Since Fu Yuju was canonized as the king of Baekje by Sima Yao many years ago, he has become a lackey of the Jin Dynasty. In order to prevent the Jin Dynasty from invading Liaodong, the former Qin had no choice but to increase support and assistance to Gao Qiufu, counting on him to guard the northeast gate for the imperial court. It is precisely because of the court's response to requests over the years that Gao Qiufu's appetite has gradually increased, and he asks for money and food all day long.

However, now that the Qin and Jin have negotiated peace, the Baekje king of the Jin Dynasty will naturally no longer harass the Qin Dynasty's borders, and this Gao Qiufu has greatly reduced his usefulness to the imperial court. This person has no self-knowledge, and he dares to ask for food, so it's strange that Emperor Qin can play it.

After dealing with Gao Qiufu's twists and turns, Emperor Qin looked at Fu Hong, rubbed his eyes, and said: "You have done a good job, not only encouraged Xiao Pei Qing to go all out to rescue Deng Shuai, but also expressed the determination of the imperial court to reward meritorious service; It also showed the world the honor and affection of my royal family to Deng Shuai. ”

Fu Hong smiled slightly and said respectfully: "Thank you for your compliment." So, did the father agree to give the duke? ”

"The Pei family has been fighting for the country for decades, and with the credit of the Pei family, a duke can also afford it!"

Seeing Emperor Qin nodding slightly, Fu Hong's smile became even stronger.

This time it seems that he is asking for a duke for the Pei family, but it is actually good for Fu Hong. Just imagine, Pei's dukedom was obtained by him Fu Hong from Emperor Qin, and Pei Shengqin always wanted to remember him for a favor. Pei Shengqin's young celebrity is already destined to rise, Fu Pi can think of wooing Pei Shengqin, and Fu Hong can naturally think of it.

Fu Hong's sense of crisis has always been very strong, he is not like Fu Pi who has led troops, made friends with some generals in the army, and made friends with the Wang brothers; He is also not like Fu Deng, who has a good father-in-law and has the full support of the Longxi military; There are even many other children of the royal family, who are also full of threats in Fu Hong's view, such as the second brother Fu Hui, who guards the Great Wall, who used to be an idle job, but now that there is a war outside the fortress, who knows if the second brother will take the opportunity to grasp the military power? Another example is Yue Wang Fu Kui, which is an existence that even his father has a headache, just like a porcelain doll, and he can't be beaten or scolded. There was a slight difference, and a group of old ministers in the court wanted to go to the Taimiao Temple to cry to the ancestors and ancestors. Those old ministers are more poisonous than one another, and they can't help but say things like "Your Majesty, you have taken the first emperor's country, and you are so mean to the first emperor and the prince, how can my ancestors and ancestors be at peace in the spirit of the sky". Others don't know why his father is so good to King Yue, but Fu Hong is clear, and it's not all forced by the old people in the court who rely on the old and sell the old! Even in the past so many years, there will still be voices in the court from time to time asking the emperor to return to power after a hundred years to atone for his sins. There is also the East China Sea Gong Fu Yang, who seems to be honest all these years, and the Blue Fly Division can't find anything unusual, but Fu Hong never believes that Fu Fa's son will be an idle duke with peace of mind. After successfully deposing the first emperor that year, Fu Fa gave the emperor the throne to his father, but his backhand was killed by his father. The father did not do this very kindly, Fu Hong thought that if he was Fu Yang, he would definitely think about revenge all the time.

Compared with these people, Fu Hong really has no advantage except for the name of a prince. Even Emperor Qin, in order to whitewash the affairs of the year, did not hesitate to publicize the emperor's throne every year that the virtuous people lived there, resulting in the fact that the crown prince is no longer an ironclad prince. Today's Fu Hong is eager to accumulate strength, and naturally he will not give up the opportunity to make friends with Pei Shengqin.

It's just that neither Fu Hong nor Fu Pi would have thought that Pei Shengqin had already been loyal to Fu Deng at this time.

"However, this duke can be given to the Pei family, but not directly to Xiao Pei Qing."

Emperor Qin thinks more than Fu Hong, Pei Shengqin has not yet reached the crown, if he is given a duke at this time, then what will he reward for his great contribution next time? Prince? And what about next time?

"Xiao Pei Qing is young, it is not advisable to reward too much, otherwise I am afraid that there will be no reward for my achievements in the future."

When Fu Hong heard this, he already understood what Emperor Qin meant, and nodded and said, "What Father Emperor said is true." ”

Emperor Qin Zhan smiled and said: "Speaking of which, little Pei Qing is already a county marquis, and Big Pei Qing has no title to be around, the father is not as good as the son, what kind of system!" ”

"Proposed purpose, General Pei Yuanluo of Wei has made outstanding achievements, is loyal to the country, and I am very relieved. Specially given to the prince of Zitong County! ”

"Whoa!" Zhang Gonggong wrote down the matter, and only waited for a little time to go to the draft.

Fu Hong stood up and bowed: "Father Emperor Shengming." ”

In the meantime, Fu Hong was about to retire, when he suddenly heard the eunuch outside the door say: "Your Majesty, General Yangwu asks to see you." ”

"Pass him in." Emperor Qin sighed slightly, and originally planned to go to the harem to find the Qinghe River to enjoy the flowers after approving the chapter, but Yao Chang had something to ask to see at this time, and he didn't know how long he had to delay.

"Father, the minister will retire first."

After receiving the Qin Emperor's consent, Fu Hong slowly withdrew from the imperial study. When I went out, I happened to pass by Yao Chang who entered the door.

Yao Chang's face was full of grief and indignation, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't even pay attention to the prince walking past him. He entered the imperial study, knelt down in front of Emperor Qin, and howled: "Your Majesty, you want to make decisions for Weichen's poor child!" ”

Emperor Qin frowned slightly: "Yao Qing's family got up and spoke, you are a general of the national dynasty, what kind of system is it to howl like this." ”

Yao Chang shook his feet and cried: "Your Majesty, that Nanchong Marquis Pei Shengqin instructed a seven-year-old boy to beat the son of the minister, and even knocked out two front teeth!" ”

Under Emperor Qin's bewildered gaze, Yao Chang sobbed and sobbed. There is no need to hide anything about this matter, Pei Shengqin beat Yao Xing for a slave singer, saying that it was Pei Shengqin's to break the sky. Yao Chang originally wanted to put pressure on the Patrol Department to detain Pei Shengqin first, but the problem was that it was the little boy who did it, but Qin Lu had a clause to protect children. In addition, the Pei family is also a big family, and the Patrol Division did not dare to mess around, so Yao Chang had no choice but to come to Emperor Qin to complain.

"Your Majesty Mingjian, what does that seven-year-old child know, this matter is clearly instructed by Pei Shengqin! Please Your Majesty punish Pei Shengqin and make the decision for the hard-working child of the minister! ”

Emperor Qin looked at Yao Chang with a strange expression: "Yao Qing's family, how old is your son this year?" ”

Yao Chang was stunned for a moment, and replied truthfully: "The dog is eighteen this year. ”

Emperor Qin couldn't help but smile and said, "You mean, your son is eighteen this year and was beaten by a seven-year-old boy?" ”

An eighteen-year-old boy who had his front teeth knocked out by a seven-year-old boy? What a waste of wood this has to be!

Yao Chang realized that he hadn't made it clear, and hurriedly added: "Your Majesty, it's that Liu Bobo, the one from outside the Sai!" ”

"Oh." Emperor Qin's face became strange, but he did not show any more mockery.

This Liu Bobo was born with divine power, Emperor Qin was aware, and an emergency court meeting was held in Xiangcheng that day, and Yang Yuhang, the imperial historian, took Liu Bobo into the palace, and Liu Bobo personally told how he single-handedly rushed out of the clouds to seize the horse and fled south.

It's just that most of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty that day felt that the kid was bragging, maybe he found some secret passage or something like sneaking out of the city. Emperor Qin originally thought the same, but after listening to Yao Chang's complaint today, Emperor Qin suddenly realized. Perhaps, that kid is really born with divine powers!

"Little Pei Qing, this is really a person with great opportunities!" Emperor Qin muttered softly, and when he heard Bo Bo tell him in the palace, Emperor Qin didn't believe it. Therefore, according to Liu Weichen's last wishes, Bobo was handed over to Pei's family to raise. If he had known that Bo Bo was really born with divine power, maybe Emperor Qin would choose to raise him directly in the palace.

Who doesn't want such a good seedling, if there is no accident in the future, it must be a peerless general!

However, since it was thrown to the Pei family to raise, the Qin Emperor naturally would not ask for it back, at most, this child would be closer to the Pei family when he grew up, and he would still be the son of the Great Qin Dynasty after all. Pei Yuanluo has been loyal for decades, Pei Shengqin turned the tide in times of crisis, and in the eyes of Emperor Qin, Pei's loyalty is beyond doubt.

Seeing that Emperor Qin didn't react when he said "oh", Yao Chang's eyes rolled, and he continued to wail: "Your Majesty, be the master of your son, Your Majesty!" ”

Emperor Qin had a headache, and said in a deep voice: "Although Liu Bobo is born with divine power, he is still a child after all, Yao Qing's family should not forget, Qin Lu is not guilty." ”

Yao Chang said angrily: "Your Majesty, the minister does not ask to punish Liu Bobo, but only to punish Pei Shengqin!" It was Pei Shengqin who instructed Liu Bobo to do it! ”

Emperor Qin sighed: "Liu Bobo admitted that Pei Shengqin instructed him?" ”

"This ......" Yao Chang was stunned for a moment, and said excitedly: "They are embarrassed, so naturally they don't admit it." But apart from Pei Shengqin, who else would instruct that Liu Bobo to beat my son! ”

In this case, there is no evidence.

Emperor Qin shook his head helplessly, as long as Pei Shengqin bit the bullet and refused to admit that it was he who instructed Liu Bobo to beat him, Yao Chang would not be able to make any sense in this matter. It was not Pei Shengqin who beat people, but Liu Bobo, but Liu Bobo is a child and is protected by the law.

What's more, Emperor Qin's heart was originally biased towards Pei Sheng Qin's side. Although Yao Xing robbed a singer, there was nothing wrong with him from the perspective of the law, and Pei Shengqin should not have instructed Bo Bo to beat him. But the law is the law, the hearts of the people belong to the hearts of the people, and the Qin Emperor himself is also disgusted with those who bully slaves, but the customs in the world are like this, although the Qin Emperor is the emperor, there is no way to abolish the slavery system rashly.

It's just that looking at Yao Chang, who was crying, Emperor Qin was a little difficult to do. is still the same sentence, the law belongs to the law, and the hearts of the people belong to the hearts of the people, Pei Shengqin did not violate the law, but this Yao Chang has been sued in front of Emperor Qin, and he has to find a way to get rid of it. After all, Yao Chang is also a veteran general who has fought for the Great Qin Dynasty for many years, and he was beaten by Pei Shengqin by exploiting a legal loophole, so he still needs to be appeased.

Emperor Qin raised his hand to stroke his forehead, and after a long time, he slowly sighed: "Pei Sheng Qin has lived in a remote place in Yizhou for a long time, and there is a lack of etiquette, so he will be punished for entering Taixue to study and learn etiquette." Yao Qingjia, what do you think? ”

"Reading? What kind of punishment is this! Yao Chang immediately shouted again.

If it is an ordinary general, it is indeed a serious punishment to punish Taixue to study and temper his mind. Most of the generals are rough, and reading the Four Books and Five Classics is like a book from heaven, and asking them to recite poems is even more uncomfortable than killing them.

However, Pei Shengqin is not an ordinary general, he is a scholar, maybe it is right for him to let him study!

Emperor Qin's face sank, and he said coldly: "Since the Yao Qing family thinks that reading is not a punishment, then the Qing family will also go to Taixue to study for a few years!" ”

Yao Chang's face suddenly turned to ashes, he didn't even know a few big characters, and asked him to study, isn't it embarrassing! Yao Chang looked at Emperor Qin's unkind eyes, his body was verbose, and he hurriedly changed his words: "Your Majesty, the minister is wrong, Your Majesty!" Reading is a punishment, so punish Pei Shengqin to study, the minister is very satisfied! ”

Emperor Qin's face softened at this time, and he said softly: "Since the Yao Qing family is satisfied, let's step back." ”

Let Pei Shengqin go to Taixue to study and learn etiquette, this is also the method that Emperor Qin came up with after thinking about it for a long time. Pei Shengqin is a hero of the country, and if he beat Yao Xing without doing it himself, it is impossible for Emperor Qin to really punish him. But Yao Chang is a general, and his son was beaten badly, so it is necessary to appease him.

Asking Pei Shengqin to enter Taixue is undoubtedly the best of both worlds. For Yao Chang, letting the military general go to study and learn etiquette is indeed a serious punishment, and Yao Chang can get by on face; For Pei Shengqin, although he is a military general, he is a scholar, and reading is a torment for other generals, but it is trivial for Pei Shengqin.

Seeing Yao Chang leave after thanking him, Emperor Qin breathed a sigh of relief, and this wave of mud was reconciled. Really, a general of Yangwu and a marquis of Nanchong are not small people, and they have to worry about trivial things to my head.

That's right, in Emperor Qin's opinion, Yao Xing's beating can indeed only be regarded as a trivial matter, even if he is killed, it is still a trivial matter!

The door of the imperial study opened again, and this time it was a bewitching woman in her twenties, carrying a small food box in her hand.

She was the only one who could come to Emperor Qin's side without going through the courtesy.

When Emperor Qin saw the woman, a smile finally appeared on his face, beckoned, and said, "Qinghe, sit beside me!" ”

The woman smiled, twisted to Emperor Qin's side in three or two steps, and said, "Your Majesty has made an appointment with the concubine to enjoy the flowers, and the concubine has been waiting in Zhihuang Palace for a long time, but she has not seen Your Majesty coming." ”

Emperor Qin shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I was going to go, but Yao Chang suddenly asked to see him before, so he delayed for some time. ”

"Oh." The woman answered, but she didn't find out why Yao Chang came, she was well versed in the truth that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, and she would never do things that Emperor Qin didn't like.

"When the concubine saw that His Majesty did not come, she guessed that Her Majesty had something to delay, so she specially ordered the imperial dining room to make lotus seed soup to replenish Your Majesty's body."

As she spoke, the woman took out a small bowl of lotus seed soup from the food box.

Emperor Qin smiled, and after Gonggong Zhang took the silver needle and tested that the lotus seed soup was non-toxic, he picked up the spoon and brought it to his mouth and took a sip gently.

"There are three thousand beauties in the harem, after all, it is the concubine who loves me!"

This woman was originally the former princess of Yan Qinghe, but after Yan's death, she was included in the harem by Emperor Qin. Xinxing Hou Murong Wei is her elder brother, and Pingyang Taishou Murong Chong is her younger brother. Princess Qinghe is stunningly captivating, and she is very loved by Emperor Qin, and the nursery rhyme "one female and one male, both flying into the Purple Palace" in Chang'an City is talking about this woman. The traitorous ministers of the Murong clan in Kanto were able to mix like fish in water in the court, thanks to Qinghe's constant blowing pillow wind in the ears of Emperor Qin over the years.

Even when Tuyuhun took the initiative to join him, compared with Murong Wei, the emerging Marquis of the fallen country, who was captured, Emperor Qin naturally admired Murong Shaxi, the Marquis of Luochuan who knew the destiny of heaven and knew the general trend. At that time, Murong Shaxi asked the cemeteries and ancestral halls of the ancestors of the Murong clan to be moved from Kanto to Bailan, and the Qin Emperor wanted to agree, but it was also because the Qinghe River blew the pillow wind in time to change the Qin Emperor's mind, and the Guandong Murong clan kept the ancestral tomb. In the first round of the Murong family's orthodox battle, the Kanto Murong clan finally barely defeated the Bailan Murong clan.

There are loyal ministers, and they have privately called this Qinghe princess a demon concubine. The more radical ones such as the Bailan Murong clan even secretly found a dead man to assassinate the demon concubine, but they failed because the palace was heavily guarded.

Qinghe sat quietly beside Emperor Qin, looking at Emperor Qin's majestic face, the light in his eyes turned, and the light changed, revealing complex emotional changes. More than ten years of entanglement, hatred, and love.

Emperor Qin hurriedly drank the lotus seed soup, and then stretched out his hand to Qinghe: "Let's go, concubine, let's go enjoy the flowers." ”

Qing He smiled brightly and stretched his soft and boneless snow-white wrist into Emperor Qin's palm.

"Your Majesty, the peach blossoms in the Imperial Garden should be blooming."
