Emperor Xia couldn't agree to give marriage, not to mention that he had given marriage before but let King Cheng's rebel son do that, just talking about the Wei family and the Shen family, he still knows what the old fox of Wei Sheng has in mind, and Shen Ye's dislike for Wei Sheng is obvious.

He didn't give marriage to Wei Beishuo when he was still healthy, and now Wei Beishuo is crippled, let alone can't give it.

Shen Ye has just returned from a victory, he is a meritorious minister, and he has not yet been rewarded for meritorious deeds, but he wants to marry his concubine to a cripple, doesn't this make his courtiers feel cold?

And now in this court, the parties are clustered and form parties for personal gain, Shen Ye is one of the few neutrals, even if everyone thinks that he stands with King Ming, but Emperor Xia knows that Shen Ye is not willing to participate in it.

Shen Ye has a very good set of military affairs, and he can clearly carry his position, he is very arrogant when he is arrogant, and he is really respectful when he is respectful, not much better than those courtiers who are extremely loyal on the surface but are actually full of intrigues.

Only when I became an emperor did I know that the country was easy to obtain, but it was difficult to find good ministers.

Shen Ye is one of the few courtiers who makes him feel uncomfortable but comfortable, he loves and hates, and he naturally prefers Shen Ye more than Wei Sheng, who is becoming more and more ambitious.

Of course, in addition to the little eccentricity in his heart, Shen Ye was also the only one in the court who stood firmly on the opposite side of Wei Sheng to confront him, if Shen Ye fell to Wei Sheng's side, that kind of situation was not what Emperor Xia wanted to see.

After thinking about it in his heart, Emperor Xia had only one reason for refusal: when Shen Ye came back, if he could convince Shen Ye, he would give him this marriage.

However, both of them knew that Shen Ye would definitely not agree.

Prime Minister Wei was not surprised at all that Emperor Xia was sloppy, the two of them drank a cup of tea, and not long after, the head of the household came in, and the excerpt handed over was about the financial problems of the household department.

This time, a total of 300,000 taels of silver were spent on military salaries, and last year there was a drought and a flood in the southwest, not to mention that there was no harvest, and a lot of relief silver was allocated, and the granary was also empty, and now there is almost no grain reserve in the entire western granary.

The treasury was halved and the granaries were empty, which was a big deal.

Emperor Xia frowned after hearing this, this situation is not good for the country, but this cannot be solved immediately, the grain can only be collected in two months, and there are taxes in all aspects.

Although the Xia Dynasty is now prosperous, it cannot withstand the disasters and wars of nature again and again.

However, Emperor Xia was not very worried, because the crown prince won Chiyan, not only gained more territory, but also took Chiyan's tribute, which should be able to ease up.

Wei Sheng listened to the discussion between Hubu Shangshu and Emperor Xia, and occasionally Emperor Xia asked a question, and he replied, with a casual attitude as if he was an outsider.

In the end, Wei Sheng retired with Hubu Shangshu, and left like that? Xia Di was silent, Wei Sheng is not such a good talker, and this matter cannot be just done.

Sure enough, the next day, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ordnance Superintendent, and the Ministry of Engineering all had a lot of problems, but Wei Sheng went back last night and occasionally felt the wind and cold and took leave, and Emperor Xia was very busy.

Now Emperor Xia knew that Wei Sheng was threatening him.

Emperor Xia knows that Wei Sheng is not a good person, unscrupulous, insidious and cunning, and it is precisely because of him that Emperor Xia can ascend the throne as emperor, and Wei Sheng holds many unsightly selfishness in Emperor Xia's hands, which is the reason why Emperor Xia knows Wei Sheng's wolf ambition but does not dare to touch him, and it is also the confidence that Wei Sheng can threaten Emperor Xia.

Just like now, knowing that this was Wei Sheng's means, he couldn't kill him directly.

Wei Sheng asked him to exchange a holy decree for the peace of the court, if it was before, maybe he would really be threatened by Wei Sheng, but now......

A few days in the court can be called a war and chaos, things are piled up one after another, civil and military officials quarrel every day, and they are even about to get started.

Emperor Xia also felt upset when he looked at it, but no matter how noisy they were, he was sitting with the old god there, as steady as Mount Tai.

I've been an emperor for more than ten years, what wind and waves haven't I seen? Wei Sheng's little trick really upset him, but as Emperor Xia, can he still have some confidence?

Threaten him with this? That's too much to underestimate him.

However, when Emperor Xia didn't take Wei Sheng seriously, something happened to the armory, and a fire burned down the armory's file room, and countless precious confidential files were burned.

When Emperor Xia heard this, he immediately stood up and was deeply furious: "He dared to ......"

was so angry that he couldn't scold, Wei Sheng actually threatened him with the armory.

Sure enough, he shouldn't have handed it over to Wei Sheng, Wei Sheng held the power, and his power was getting bigger and bigger, and when he realized his ambitions, he couldn't take it back if he wanted to, and now it has become Wei Sheng's handle to blackmail him.

Soon after Emperor Xia received the news, Wei Sheng sent someone into the palace, saying that he had heard about the armory, although his body was weak, but he was worried, worried about the country, and hereby sent someone to ask His Majesty if he needed his help, as long as His Majesty gave an order, he immediately went to Xuanwu Mountain, although those files were burned, but many of them had already been remembered in his heart, for His Majesty, even if he cried blood, he had to write it out.

Listen, what a faithful courtier, what a righteous courtier? It's hard not to be moved.

But all this was made by him, if Emperor Xia ordered him to go to Xuanwu Mountain, he must give the holy decree first, otherwise even if he went, he didn't know what he would do.

The merit is high and the lord is authoritarian, Wei Sheng is obviously such an existence.

knew that he was a threat, but he couldn't kill him if he wanted to, and this traitor was connived at by himself to this day.

Emperor Xia sat on the dragon chair for a long time and didn't move, until his body stiffened for a long time, and then he slowly raised his hand: "Come on, draft the will!" ”

--------

After walking for half a month, the prince took Chiyan's envoys back to Beijing in triumph, and the prince made such a contribution, and Emperor Xia naturally had to go to greet him in person.

After the early dynasty, he took the civil and military officials to the city gate, and the martial law was a few hundred meters away to greet the prince, of course, there were also those princes and brothers, but those few people didn't have a good face.

Seeing that the team was about to arrive in Shengjing City, Shen Jinqiao's whole body relaxed, and she was finally able to go home, she really missed her big bed, she really wanted to take a comfortable bath, and then collapsed on the bed motionless, she was about to waste this period of time.

There was a knock on the wall of the carriage, and the voice of the playboy came from outside: "Miss Jinqiao? ”

Shen Jinqiao lifted the curtain and looked at the father-in-law: "Father-in-law has something?" ”

The dude was still holding a horse in his hand and smiling brightly: "The prince is affectionate." ”

"Your Highness?" Shen Jinqiao was puzzled, this is going to Shengjing, why did the prince invite her over?

However, Shen Jinqiao still got out of the carriage and rode to the prince's frame, Yanyun parked the carriage and opened the door, obviously to let her go up.

Well?
