Chapter 141: The Dust Settles (Part II)

Seeing the red lacquered wooden box, above the main hall, the ministers who had long been as pale as paper could no longer control themselves at this moment, their legs were bent and weak, and they knelt down one after another.

"Looks like someone knows what's in there!" Li Guanqi smiled bitterly and continued, "I am also curious, and I also want to know what is in here!" What is it that makes you bend your knees now? ”

After a pause, Li Guanqi continued: "However, I haven't opened it yet!" I won't watch it in the future! Nameless, take down this box, let them see if the fire paint sealed by Zu Donglai on this box is still intact! ”

Nameless agreed, picked up the red lacquer box from the case and walked down the stairs, holding the box in his hand, and slowly walked around among the hundred officials. The ministers who had collapsed to the ground saw that the fire paint on the box was really fine, and their hanging hearts calmed down a little.

After the circulation of the hundred officials was completed, Li Guanqi said to the nameless again: "Burn this box in front of the civil and military officials!" ”

Nameless couldn't help but be stunned, although he didn't know what was in this box, but looking at the scared looks of those ministers, he could more or less guess that it must be the evidence of collusion between those ministers and Zu Donglai, he didn't understand why Li Guanqi burned such an important thing.

"Nameless!" Li Guanqi frowned and said, "What are you doing here?" I told you to burn this box! ”

"It's really burning? Emperor? Nameless looked incredulous.

"Nonsense! You don't have any jokes, don't you know? Li Guanqi was a little helpless about this guard who didn't understand the rules, and said angrily, "Do you still want to resist the order?" ”

"Resist?" Nameless muttered, "Resisting the decree is going to kill the head!" ”

Because it was the depths of winter, there were several large braziers in the temple. Nameless no longer hesitated, walked to the brazier in the hall, raised the red lacquer box in his hand and shook it in front of the hundred officials, and then threw it into the charcoal of the brazier.

Suddenly, the red lacquer box burned, and with a wisp of light smoke rising, the whole hall of civil and military knelt on the main hall at the same time, shouting in unison: "Emperor Shengming, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

Li Guanqi smiled, because from the sound of the mountain roaring tsunami, he could hear that the shout came from everyone's hearts!

After the full hall of civil and military praise was completed, Li Guanqi continued: "Now that He Zhuguo has been killed, Zu Dong has killed himself, and the auxiliary ministers set up by the first emperor have all left me. I'm still young, so I want to re-select a few more auxiliary ministers, I wonder what do you think? ”

These words were like throwing another stone into the calm water, and the Manchu Dynasty suddenly rioted again. What a noble honor is that, the Vice-Chancellor? Who wouldn't want to be? However, the two previous auxiliary ministers were both killed, and if they wanted to succeed them, they had to weigh whether they could afford this convincing. And when the emperor asks this question now, it sounds like there is a smell of temptation.

So Lin Bai walked out of the court first, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter must not be done!" During the regency of Zu Donglai, the court was already in chaos. The emperor has cut off the source of chaos in accordance with the mandate of heaven, and he should take this opportunity to reorganize the dynasty and rejuvenate our great cadres. And the position of auxiliary politician cannot be done if he is not highly respected and has learned from the past and the present. The emperor is knowledgeable, the candle shines thousands of miles, and there is no one in the court to take on the role of auxiliary government! Please think twice! ”

"Please think twice!" Qin Min and the others also followed

Li Guanqi frowned and was silent, and after a long time, he spoke: "Do you all think that this auxiliary minister is not needed?" ”

"No, you don't!" The Chinese military officials agreed in unison.

Li Guanqi nodded slowly, as if he had made a very difficult decision, and said: "Since you all think that this auxiliary minister is not needed, then I have no choice but to be good and no longer have this auxiliary minister." From now on, I will be fully pro-government! ”

"The Emperor Shengming!" The civil and military officials once again sang in unison!

Li Guanqi smiled and looked at the hundred officials in the hall, he knew that from now on, he could really become the emperor of this great Qian Dynasty.

The sun shone in, and in the main hall, a little golden red was sprinkled, and Li Guanqi stood up and said loudly: "Ming'er is Chinese New Year's Eve." Spread my will, cancel the ban on the city, take a three-day holiday, and go home for the New Year! ”

"Thank Emperor Longen!"

Not long after Li Guanqi announced the cancellation of the curfew, two carriages left the capital in a hurry and galloped south......

The carriage swayed on the snowy road, Cao Yuanshan sat in the first carriage, gnawed hard steamed buns, drank cold ice water, and sighed silently, "I didn't expect that I would boast that Zhuge was resurrected, Zhang Liang was reincarnated, and I would actually lose to Li Guanqi, and I lost completely." But fortunately, there is still the one in the carriage behind, and when he arrives in the south and finds Chen Guangxi, he still has a chance to start over! ”

In the middle of his thoughts, he suddenly heard the jingle bell, and the sound of a horse bell came, which was unusually clear in the open field, Cao Yuanshan's spirit was tight, and he hurriedly opened the curtain and looked out.

I saw two horses, one white and one red, galloping from south to north, both horses were tall and had bright saddle bridles. The general tall head and long body, it is rare that the white ones are all white, and the red ones are all red, and there is not a single miscellaneous hair on the body. The white horse hangs a string of golden bells under its neck, and the red horse's bell is cast of silver, and the horse's head swings slightly, and the golden bell makes a jingle sound, and the sound of the silver bell is different, Ding Lingling, Ding Lingling's, more crisp and beautiful.

On the white horse sat a man in his thirties, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a brocade robe, and a tall figure. On the red horse, there was a young woman, I saw her red body, under the slender jade neck, a crisp chest like clotted white jade, half-covered and half-hidden, a bundle of plain waist, not even a hand, a pair of long and watery and well-proportioned legs looming under the red gauze skirt, sending out a tempting invitation.

In the cold winter, this woman's outfit is undoubtedly extremely charming, but this charm is much inferior to her demeanor. Her big eyes are smiling and charming, the water covers the mist, the charm is rippling, the corners of her small mouth are slightly upturned, her red lips are slightly open, and she wants to attract people to kiss Fengze, this is a woman who exudes charm from her bones, she seems to be seducing men all the time, affecting men's nerves.

At this time, the woman was lightly opening her lips, exhaling like Lan and saying to the knight on the white horse: "Brother Zheng, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, but two exquisite carriages have appeared in the wilderness, hum, there must be cats inside, do you want to go up and see it together!" ”

The knight on the white horse, after listening to the words of the woman in red, couldn't help frowning and said, "Xiyue, we still have to rush to the capital, it's better not to make any extraneous branches!" ”

"People just want to go up and have a look, where will there be any extraneous branches?" The woman in red smiled and spoke, and at the same time urged the horse under her crotch and leaned towards Cao Yuanshan's carriage......
