Chapter 946: Ten Mile Long Pavilion
"Welcome Lord Shen to the triumphant return of the White Lotus Sect." When Shen Yan followed Xu Sanyuan to the Ten Mile Long Pavilion with the Great Xia Royal Army and the servant army, the six departments of the imperial court led by Qiu Mubai took two steps forward, a hearty smile appeared on their faces, met Shen Yan's calm gaze, and said loudly.
"I have to work with my colleagues." Seeing that the six departments were standing in front of him, Shen Yan lowered his posture very low, changed his previous unforgiving momentum, a humble smile appeared on his face, glanced at Qiu Mubai and the others, and laughed loudly.
"Lord Shen has been ordered to purge the White Lotus Sect and return triumphantly in a disadvantaged situation, and it is an honor for us to be able to greet Lord Shen here in the Ten Mile Long Pavilion." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Qiu Mubai's mouth, standing at the front of the team, looking at Shen Yan with a kind face, and said with a smile.
A hearty smile appeared on Qiu Mubai's face, but the thoughts in his heart were full of feelings, when he first met Shen Yan, Shen Yan was completely like a lost dog, but what he didn't expect was that this lost dog actually saved his baby daughter's life at a critical time, and then was inexplicably taken to Jinling by Gao Yong, and Shen Yan who arrived in Jinling was like a dragon swimming in the sea, mixed with wind and water, how long has it been that he has reached the level of shoulder to shoulder, no, on real power, Shen Yan completely dumped himself a few streets.
After experiencing the victory of Huaibei County's purging of the White Lotus Sect, Shen Yan's influence has reached a new height, and his position in the emperor's heart is more stable, as long as Shen Yan does not make a faint move, does not make the emperor feel disgusted, as long as the emperor reigns for a day, Shen Yan's position cannot be shaken.
It can be said that Shen Yan's strength in the army is no longer as bad as Jiang Jingwei and others, if Shen Yan wants to squeeze into the military forces, he already has his position, in addition to his strength in the army, Shen Yan controls the privileged functional department of Jinyi School, and almost chokes the privacy of all civil and military officials, and the influence of this is undoubted, and it is also unshakable by others.
What's more critical is that Shen Yan has actually obtained the emotions of his baby daughter, although he has not yet talked about marriage, but Qiu Mubai obviously feels Qiu Yingxue's feelings for Shen Yan, and the situation of not marrying is not a gentleman, which certainly makes Qiu Mubai feel extremely surprised, but what really makes Qiu Mubai feel shocked and unhappy is that there are so many confidants around Shen Yan, and Qiu Yingxue also knows these situations, and she has not been affected by Shen Yan's emotions in the slightest, what kind of charm Shen Yan has.
"Lord Autumn is too polite." Hearing Qiu Mubai's words, a hint of surprise flashed in Shen Yan's eyes, although these were just words on the table, but Shen Yan seemed to see a different look in Qiu Mubai's eyes, but he didn't catch it all of a sudden.
"Lord Shen has made a great contribution this time, and it stands to reason that the Ministry of War should ask the emperor for a corresponding reward according to Lord Shen's merits, but Lord Shen's merits this time The Ministry of War really can't come up with a good proposal, and Lord Shen also has the position of the left squire of the Ministry of War, I don't know if Lord Shen has any good reward suggestions for his merits?" A complicated look flashed in Huang Weimin's eyes, he glanced at Shen Yan indifferently, and said with a smile.
Although Shen Yan was unexpectedly promoted to the rank of Langzhong of the Criminal Department by the emperor, Huang Weimin did not pay any attention to Shen Yan, so after Shen Yan proposed the rotation of the six ministries and was adopted by the emperor, Huang Weimin and other people suppressed Shen Yan, otherwise Huang Weimin would not have arranged for Shen Yan to go to the barracks on the outskirts of Beijing to take over the 500 soldiers who had already been abandoned.
But what Huang Weimin didn't expect was that what Shen Yan didn't expect was that Shen Yan actually won the trust of the five hundred soldiers in the Beijing suburb barracks, and Shen Yan seemed to be like a fish in water there, not only collecting these five hundred soldiers for his own use, but also suggesting that the emperor set up a Great Xia Royal Army, and then led the Great Xia Royal Army through actual combat with the White Lotus Sect without improving his strength, and finally reached the current status and strength.
Thinking of this, Huang Weimin felt as if he was making wedding clothes for Shen Yan, as if he was Shen Yan's personal butler, and he had worked hard for Shen Yan's future. But in fact, Huang Weimin has always wanted to stomp on Shen Yan fiercely, not only for the sake of the breath in his heart, but also for the sake of the six princes.
Now the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, who doesn't know that Shen Yan and the eighteen princes are very close, although the eighteen princes do not have any chance and hope for the succession, but after all, the eighteen princes are the identity of the prince, this is a very good signboard, Shen Yan uses it well, although it cannot bring any convenience to the eighteen princes, but Shen Yan will definitely get benefits from it, at least the emperor can rest assured that Shen Yan has not fallen into the battle for the prince's succession.
Huang Weimin's heart was full of these complicated thoughts, so there was a hearty smile on the corner of his mouth, but in his heart he was thinking about how to make Shen Yan embarrassed.
"The plan for rewarding meritorious deeds is all decided by the minister, that is, although the official is also the position of the left attendant of the military department, but the head of the official also has other official positions, if you make any suggestions for your reward, this does not seem to be in line with common sense, so no matter what kind of suggestion the ministry makes, it will ultimately be judged by the emperor." Shen Yan seemed to feel the other party's mentality towards him in Huang Weimin's words, so an indifferent smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't accept Huang Weimin's stubble at all.
"Lord Shen's words are a bit out of sight, Lord Shen is the left squire of the Ministry of War, and when the official is not there, Lord Shen has the final say." Seeing that Shen Yan was not hit, a brief surprise flashed in Huang Weimin's eyes, Shen Yan was so cunning at such an age, and in the face of the temptation of rewarding suggestions, Shen Yan did not fall into it.
"Huang Butang laughed, although the official is also the position of the left squire of the military department, but this is a kind of appreciation and protection of the emperor to the official, besides, the official does not have enough energy to get involved in this matter, after returning from the war, the official needs to take the Royal Army and the servant army of Daxia to reflect on it, and summarize the gains and losses from the war experienced, so as to find a way to avoid the shortcomings and improve the strength, so as to be worthy of the emperor's kindness and trust." The corners of Shen Yan's mouth lifted slightly, revealing a look of enlightenment.
After Huang Weimin was reprimanded by the emperor, he did stop for a while, but he didn't expect that he would want to make himself embarrassed as soon as he returned to Jinling, and his intentions can be seen.
