When he came out of the palace, Xue Ling was fast, and the matter was urgent, so he and Qi Ning were the first to go out of the palace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Outside the palace gate, Xue Lingfeng said: "Hou Ye is still too impulsive today, I said last night, no matter what happens, Hou Ye should not involve himself." ”

Qi Ning knew that Xue Lingfeng was referring to the crime for him today, and said with a smile: "Uncle Xue can't hear it yet, even if I don't take the initiative to stand up, someone will want to pull me in." He frowned and asked, "Yes, who is that Lord Lu?" ”

"He is Lu Xiao, the left attendant of the military department, although he is only the left attendant, but the military department is now in charge of him." Xue Lingfeng explained: "Although the Golden Daohou has the name of the secretary of the military department, he is very old, and it is said that he has been riddled with diseases in the past two years, and he has not even gone out much, and he has no physical strength and energy to take care of the military department. Lu Xiao was a fierce general who followed the Golden Daohou to fight, he was good at writing and martial arts, and he had been working as an errand in the military department, and the golden sword marquis couldn't take care of the military department, so he, the squire of the military department, naturally had to take charge of the affairs of the military department. ”

Only then did Qi Ning understand that Lu Xiao, who was smoking in his nostrils, was the squire of the military department, and it seemed that the military department was the power of the Golden Dao Hou.

In these days in Beijing, Qi Ning has an understanding of the reputation of the four hereditary candidates, and he also knows the behavior of the Marquis of Zhongyi and the Marquis of Wuxiang, but the Marquis of Jindao has never seen it.

"Master Hou, the emperor said that you already have a special purpose to transfer troops, why didn't you take it out last night?" Xue Lingfeng hesitated for a moment, and finally lowered his voice and asked, "If you took out the troop transfer documents last night and had the emperor's special decree, we should be more thoughtful in our work." ”

Qi Ning was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Uncle Xue, if someone else asks this, I won't ignore it, but since you asked...... After looking around, he leaned closer to Xue Lingfeng and whispered a few words in his ear, Xue Lingfeng was stunned, then showed an intriguing look, and smiled: "I see." ”

"Jinyihou is young and strong, but it is not comparable to us old men." Suddenly hearing a voice from behind, Qi Ning looked back and saw King Huainan walking slowly.

Although the king of Huainan was over forty years old, he was well maintained, he still looked very young, and he was obviously full of energy.

Qi Ning and Xue Lingfeng bowed their hands at the same time, and King Huainan waved his hand and smiled: "This king has never cared about this, so don't be formal in private." Xiang Xue Lingfeng said: "Commander Xue, you still have something to do, don't delay, official business is important, this king and the Marquis of Jinyi will say a few words casually." ”

Xue Lingfeng glanced at Qi Ning and arched his hand: "Retire from your humble position!" ”

Waiting for Xue Lingfeng to leave, King Huainan smiled and said, "Jinyi Hou, do you want to accompany this king for a walk?" ”

Out of the palace gate, you have to pass through a long marble square, walk through the square in front of the palace, and go down the steps before you can ride a horse to leave.

Qi Ning said respectfully: "Lord Wang, please!" ”

The King of Huainan carried his hands behind his back, and Qi Ning followed behind him by half a body, although he knew that the King of Huainan and the Little Emperor were secretly competing, as the Marquis of Jinyi, it was impossible to walk with the King of Huainan, but so far, there had been no substantive conflict between the two sides after all, and Xiao Zhang was also a prince, so it was better to be humble in front of him.

"The afterlife is terrible." King Huainan walked slowly, but sighed: "Marquis of Jinyi, in fact, today in the imperial study, this king is quite emotional. ”

"What do you mean?"

"When this king saw you, he thought of himself when he was young." King Huainan said with a smile: "Passionate and outspoken." ”

Qi Ning was stunned, and he didn't know what King Huainan meant by his words, but he still said: "The prince's gold is incomparable, and it is not comparable to Qi Ning." ”

King Huainan laughed, seemed to be quite happy, and said, "Do you know what this king admires about you?" ”

"Lord Wang, please advise!"

"You are dedicated to the country, and you not only dare to speak out, but also come up with solutions, which is what this king appreciates." King Huainan said: "Some people are clever and clever, but if they really want to do something, they are helpless. ”

Qi Ning naturally heard that there was something in King Huainan's words, but who did this corpse vegetarian meal refer to?

Is it the Marquis of Loyalty? Is it Simon Shenhou? Or is it the Emperor?

"Jinyi Hou, what do you think should be done with the matter of the Black Lotus Holy Sect?" Without waiting for Qi Ning to think more, King Huainan suddenly asked.

Qi Ning knew that an old guy like this, pulling himself to chat, could never be just to enhance the relationship.

"Lord Wang, the younger generation is still young and short-sighted, and the younger generation really doesn't dare to talk nonsense about such national events." Qi Ning deliberately made a nervous look.

King Huainan laughed and said: "What happened last night, this king already knows, you learned that the epidemic was going to happen, and you worked all night, and this kind of worry about the country is not trivial." You don't have to think about it, this king is just chatting with you for a few words, even if you say it wrong, it doesn't matter. And you inherited the title of Marquis of Jinyi, it is inevitable that you will have to participate in more state affairs in the future, and if you don't have more experience, it won't work. ”

Qi Ning thought to himself that it seems that this capital is really different, and his whereabouts have to be, these old guys seem to be clear, which can only show that they have been secretly paying attention to themselves all along.

"Lord Wang, in fact, what Zhongyi Hou said is not bad, not to mention whether this epidemic incident is related to the Black Lotus Holy Sect, even if it is really related to them, you can't rush it, you need to separate them from the seventy-two caves of the Miao people first, and you can't mix them up." Qi Ning said cautiously: "The strong dragon can't suppress the earth head snake, those Miao people can be regarded as the land head snake of Bashu, they are familiar with the geography and climate, if the imperial court is in a hurry and pushes them to the Black Lotus Holy Sect, it will be counterproductive." ”

King Huainan bowed slightly, and said, "In this way, you are also in favor of using troops against the Black Lotus Holy Sect?" ”

"If the epidemic poison is indeed related to the Black Lotus Holy Sect, and the Black Lotus Holy Sect can't come up with an explanation, naturally it can't be soft on them." Qi Ning said: "But the most important thing at the moment is to solve the epidemic in the capital first, and if the Black Lotus Holy Sect is concerned, it can only wait for this matter to be discussed later, the emperor is wise, and there are pillars and auxiliary ministers such as the prince and the Marquis of Zhongyi, so he can naturally come up with the best strategy when the time comes." ”

King Huainan stared at Qi Ning, his eyes were sharp, and he suddenly smiled: "Well said, he is worthy of being a member of the Qi family of the Marquis of Jinyi." The body moved closer and said: "Marquis of Jinyi, your Qi family is a family of martial arts, the old marquis and your father, they are all peerless generals in the world, according to this king, sooner or later you will become a generation of famous generals of my Great Chu." ”

"The prince has a good reputation." Qi Ning immediately said: "The younger generation is very dull, and he will never dare to compare with the previous two generations of Jinyi Marquis. ”

"Then you'd be wrong." King Huainan said with a smile: "You are a member of the Qi family, and you are destined to become a general of the army." The emperor's special purpose for you to mobilize the Tiger God Camp is because you have the blood of the Hou Qi family in brocade. After a pause, he frowned and said, "But if you want to become a generation of famous generals and establish immortal feats like your grandfather and your father, you still have to have a chance." ”

"Opportunity?"

"No matter how great a person's skills are, if he is not given a chance, he will never be able to display them." King Huainan said softly: "Marquis of Jinyi, this king said something that he didn't like, although you have the blood of the Qi family, but the court is afraid that some people don't want to see you restore the past scenery of the Qi family." ”

Qi Ning smiled secretly in his heart, if you don't want the Qi family to recover its original majesty, wouldn't you have a share of the King of Huainan? But his face did not change, and he frowned slightly and asked, "Lord Wang, the younger generation has not offended anyone in the court, why .......?" ”

"It's not something that doesn't offend." King Huainan said lightly, looked at Qi Ning, and looked at him with a heartfelt look: "Marquis of Jinyi, this king knows that there are people behind him who reverse right and wrong and slander this king, but this king never cares. This king is the blood of the Great Chu royal family, and he has the blood of Emperor Taizu in his body, and this Great Chu was fought down by Emperor Taizu's hard work, and this king and the emperor both hope that the Great Chu will last for 10,000 years. ”

Qi Ning secretly thought that if he really wanted to talk about the Great Chu Empire, although Chu Taizu had the merit of laying the foundation, it should be Emperor Taizong who really laid down this country.

"Lord Wang, the ministers are also looking forward to my Great Chu lasting for 10,000 years and passing it on from generation to generation." Qi Ning said.

King Huainan said: "The head of governing the country is employing people, Jinyi Hou, you are young and promising, and you will become the pillar of my Great Chu in the future, but ......!" He sighed and said, "There are some things that this king can't say too clearly. He lowered his voice and said: "But when the time comes, I really want to send troops to encircle and suppress the Black Lotus Holy Sect, this king will strongly recommend you Jinyi Hou in front of the saint, when the old Marquis of Jinyi led the troops to destroy Shu, he was invincible, this time by your young hero Jinyi Hou sent troops to encircle and suppress the Black Lotus Holy Sect, it must be captured, and it can also make Jinyi Hou build a great feat!" ”

Qi Ning was stunned, his mind was like electricity, and he instantly understood that this King of Huainan obviously wanted to make a deal with him, so that he could support the imperial court to encircle and suppress the Black Lotus Holy Sect, and when the time came, he would recommend himself to become the leading general.

At this time, he only felt that this was really strange.

Today in the Imperial Study, from the very beginning, King Huainan seems to have a heart of encirclement and suppression of the Black Lotus Holy Sect, you need to know that even the Shenhou Mansion does not know too much about the Black Lotus Holy Sect, but the King of Huainan seems to know more about the Black Lotus Holy Sect than the Shenhou Mansion.

The Black Lotus Holy Sect is just a low-key gang on the border, and it has always been low-key, and the rivers and lakes don't know much about them, but they don't know why King Huainan is so concerned about the Black Lotus Holy Sect? And he obviously wanted to get rid of the Black Lotus Holy Sect as soon as possible.

One is the prince of the dignified empire, and the other is a low-key border Miao gang, Qi Ning really doesn't know what connection the two can have, and he can't figure out why the king of Huainan wants to get rid of the Black Lotus Holy Sect so quickly.

There is no doubt that today's little emperor took action to relieve himself from the siege, and in the eyes of King Huainan and others, the little emperor can give himself a special purpose, which is obviously a different view of himself.

This King Huainan obviously also saw that he, the Marquis of Jinyi, seemed to have some influence in front of the little emperor, so he even offered the condition of commanding the army in exchange for Qi Ning's support for the encirclement and suppression of the Black Lotus Holy Sect.

The young man is young and vigorous, and in the eyes of the King of Huainan, the young Marquis of Jinyi naturally hopes to make contributions and reproduce the past glory of the Marquis of Jinyi.

Throwing out the fat of the commander of the army, for the young Jinyi Marquis who wants to find an opportunity to make meritorious achievements, King Huainan is obviously confident that he must have a strong temptation.
