Chapter 38: Unexpected

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are all waiting to watch the play.

Wait to see Qin Ming being cleaned up by the emperor.

However, Qin Ming himself was very calm, looking at the emperor above with a smile.

Seeing this scene, many people sneered, laughing at Qin Ming's dying and being so rampant.

The eldest princess also glanced at each other, as if to say: everything is in plan.

At this time, the emperor spoke majestically: "Today, there is a big event that needs to be told to you. ”

It's coming, it's finally here!

Zhou Shangshu and the others were about to laugh out loud, Qin Ming was finally going to end this time.

I heard the emperor say: "At this moment, I have sealed Qin Ming's Lang Zhong as the main guest and presided over the reception and negotiation with the foreign envoys, and this matter is ......."

Everyone is waiting for the emperor to be angry, and everyone is waiting to see a good show.

But I heard the emperor say: "This matter, Qin Ming, is very good!" ”

……

Suddenly, the already quiet court became quieter.

Many people were stunned, what did the emperor say just now? Well done? Counter-words, definitely anti-words.

Many people sneered in their hearts, and said the emperor angrily, Qin Ming is not finished now?

Qin Ming walked out at this time and said, "Thanks to Your Majesty's grace, the lower officials are just doing what they should do." ”

"Well, Qin Ming, this time you have made the relationship between the Chu State and the Xia State closer, and you have done a great job. I am satisfied with the outcome of this negotiation, which is good. The Emperor nodded.

Now everyone is even more confused, what the hell? Why can't you understand?

At this time, the envoy Jin He bowed: "His Majesty the Envoy Jin He, on behalf of the Xia Emperor, like His Majesty the Chu Emperor, is willing to triple the tribute from this year, and I wish the Chu State and the Xia State will always be a country of friendship, unchanged for thousands of years, long live the Chu Emperor, long live the Xia Emperor." ”

At this time, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were stunned, and everyone was surprised and couldn't come back to their senses.

These people are all thinking, didn't the envoys of the Xia Kingdom come to reduce the tribute? Why didn't it decrease, but it tripled?

Also, what about packing up Qin Ming? What about last night's assassination?

However, in the face of their doubts, no one explained to them.

It's just that the eldest princess's face is ugly, and Zhou Shangshu and the others are like eating poop.

"Okay, okay, come here, draft the agreement, and I will sign it myself." The Emperor spoke.

Without further ado, the eunuch submitted an agreement, and the emperor signed and stamped the jade seal, and then asked the eunuch to give it to Jin He.

Jin He knelt down with trembling hands and said, "Long live His Majesty Emperor Chu, long live!" ”

"The envoy is flat, you choose a day to leave, let Emperor Xia sign an agreement, and in the future, Chu Xia will continue to maintain the country of brothers." The emperor was happy.

Jin He nodded hurriedly: "The envoy understands that this matter is important, and the envoy will leave early tomorrow morning." ”

"Well, in that case, the envoy can step back first." The Emperor spoke.

Jin Hyuk hurriedly said: "The envoy retires!" ”

After the envoys left, the emperor looked at the Manchu civil and military forces, snorted and said:

"The Xia State has tripled the tribute, which is a good thing for my Chu State, why are some ministers not looking good? Is it difficult, unhappy? ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers whose faces were not very good-looking were all frightened into a cold sweat, not because they didn't want to see Nagong promoted, but because they didn't see the imaginary scene, they didn't see Qin Ming finished, so their faces were not good-looking.

Especially the eldest princess, her face is gloomy and dripping.

Seeing that the emperor was angry at this moment, these people immediately put on a smile and shouted: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, I wish the country of Chu to be rich and strong, and enjoy the ...... of all countries coming to court."

"Humph!" The emperor snorted and said, "Some people's little flower intestines, it's better for me to put them away, don't think that I really don't know." ”

Many people were shocked, and then the emperor said:

"This time, Qin Ming did a very good job, not only to resolve the tense atmosphere between the Chu State and the Xia State, but also to help my Chu State to obtain such a big interest, which should be sealed."

Many people hated itchy, but they heard the emperor say: "Qin Ming stepped forward to listen to the seal!" ”

Qin Ming stepped out of the queue and took a few steps forward.

"I, I am subject to your viscount title of Wupin County, and the fief is in Xiaoyao County outside the imperial capital, title, Xiaoyao County!"

Qin Ming bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

In the court, all the civil and military officials were stunned.

Qin Ming was only eighteen or nineteen years old, and he was awarded the title, and he was directly the county son, skipping the title of county boy, which shows His Majesty's favor for him.

At the same time, Zhang Chong looked at Qin Ming with great jealousy.

Because of his meritorious service in the army, he is only a son of Jindi County, and now he is one level lower than Qin Ming in terms of title.

The title is divided into: Duke Bozi Man!

Barons are generally from the fifth rank, and the viscount is from the fifth grade, so Qin Ming's title is also higher.

In the face of everyone's astonishment and envy, Qin Ming was very calm.

Is it a free county?

I want to be a king, but I don't need to rush this matter, take my time.

This morning, the dynasty did not talk for long, and then retreated.

After the emperor left, many ministers looked at Qin Ming.

Some ministers who did not belong to the two forces of the eldest princess and the second princess stepped forward to congratulate Qin Ming.

Qin Ming also smiled and greeted them, as if he was very familiar with these people.

After greeting a few ministers, the eldest princess suddenly walked over, smiled faintly and said:

"Congratulations to Qin Xianzi, he won the knighthood at a young age, and his future is immeasurable."

"Where is it, there is still the credit of the eldest princess, if you hadn't asked people to go to the Sifang Pavilion last night to cooperate with Xia Guan to act, this task would not have been completed so beautifully."

Qin Ming said with a smile, although his voice was very small, the meaning of his words was obvious, and after hearing this, the eldest princess's face suddenly became ugly.

Although she didn't know exactly what was going on, she also guessed that her actions might not have harmed Qin Ming, but helped him.

Thinking of this, the eldest princess, who had always been calm, snorted and turned to leave.

Beside her, Mu Xian glared at Qin Ming, and left immediately.

Then, the second princess also came over and said: "It seems that the third sister has a really good vision, and it is always unexpected to find a colt like you." ”

Qin Ming saw that Zhang Chong behind the second princess had a bad face, so he replied:

"The third princess's vision is better than that of the second princess, it is undeniable."

The second princess frowned, does this mean that Zhang Chong is not as good as Qin Ming? Zhang Chong didn't react yet, but said angrily: "You said that the second princess has a bad eye? ”

"No!" Qin Ming shook his head and said to Zhang Chong, "I mean you can't!" ”

After saying that, Qin Ming smiled and turned to leave, Zhang Chong clenched his fists angrily, but he knew that he was not Qin Ming's opponent.

Qin Ming left with a swagger, looking like he didn't take everyone in his eyes along the way.

With such a look, many people are angry and itchy.

No matter how unhappy he is, there is nothing he can do.

Along the way, when passing by the Ministry of Rites Shangshu, Qin Ming said, "Lord Zhou, let's go together." ”

"Hehe, Qin Langzhong...... No, Xiaoyao County, let's go, let's ...... together"

This week, Shangshu was in a daze for the entire early dynasty, and he really couldn't figure out what was going on.

I also felt more and more that Qin Ming was a little incomprehensible, so he was so polite.
