Chapter 503: Generalissimo of Terracotta and Horses
"Your Majesty not only loves you, he also loves your mother, Concubine Qin."
Qi Changrong didn't believe it: "In the eyes of my father, the most important thing is imperial power. β
Grandma Sun nodded, alienating Qi Changrong's thick long hair, and said with a smile: "Yes, but that doesn't mean that Your Majesty doesn't love you." β
"Lone can't feel it." Qi Changrong paused: "I believe that the mother concubine can't feel it either." β
"No, at least Concubine Qin Niangniang knows, otherwise she wouldn't have been willingly trapped in Xingqing Palace for many years."
Mama Sun's voice is very soft, she has spent her whole life in the palace, she is the oldest palace person, and she has almost witnessed the rise and fall and prosperity of a generation of dynasties.
Even Emperor Jin An grew up under her care, except for the Queen Mother, who passed away first, no one knew this emperor better than her.
"The love of the emperor is already ethereal, how can it be easily known? If you know, I'm afraid you won't be far from death. β
Qi Changrong was puzzled: "Why?" β
"Because for the emperor, love is a weakness, and when the weakness is destined not to become armor, once love is known, there are only two results, either not to die, or to cut off a thousand sorrows."
Speaking of this, Mama Sun took a breath and continued to say quietly: "Although the emperor's love is weak, it exists, and today, many years later, Concubine Qin Niangniang is dying to cut off this love." β
Qi Changrong: "Where can Mama see it?" β
"Your Highness should know that Your Majesty is resolute and stubborn, and he attaches great importance to the Qi royal family, if he doesn't love you, if he doesn't love Concubine Qin, many years ago, Concubine Qin Niangniang would have become a victim of the palace change."
A doomed weakness, a doomed burden, can survive in secret, but the people in power are willing to take great risks to protect each other.
Mama Sun had already said it clearly enough, Qi Changrong looked back at her, and even the rich mist in the soup pool could not hide the kindness and transparency in the old man's eyes.
How many people who can survive in the deep palace and live freely and freely are not smart people?
Suddenly, Qi Changrong inexplicably believed that before today, Mama had never told anyone these words.
If she hadn't taken the initiative to bring up the topic today, Mama wouldn't have told her either.
β¦β¦
March 30.
Emperor Jin An personally issued a holy decree.
It is a rewarding will.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said: Zhenliang General Junchen, within a year to break the enemy's head, a hundred battles, a wide territory of innumerable, raise my Jin national prestige, a wash of decades of shame, I am very comforted, Junmen Junchen, is a military wizard, hereby appoint Zhenliang General Junchen as the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, after the town guards the territory of the country, hope that it will kill the enemy, protect the mountains and rivers of the people of my Great Jin, Qin thisββ"
When the decree was announced, it was another day of early court.
As the eunuch's deliberately elongated voice suddenly disappeared, there was suddenly loneliness in the Jinluan Palace.
The sudden will was like a boulder falling from the sky, smashing into everyone's heart.
Before this, some of the courtiers may have been sleepy, but after this will, it was as if a basin of cold water had been poured from the beginning, and there had never been such a sober time.
Not to mention the civil and military officials, Qi Changrong, who was the leader, couldn't help but look at Emperor Jin An, who was sitting on the dragon chair, and couldn't see the joy and anger on his face, and he was stunned.
Father, did he really follow her wishes?
Junchen, who was kneeling in the center of the main hall, knelt down and kowtowed, with a calm bearing: "Weichen will definitely live up to His Majesty's expectations, as long as Weichen still has a breath, he will spend his life protecting the health of the people, the mountains and rivers are worry-free, long live my emperor, long live long live." β
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the civil and military officials were different.
However, Yuan Yi, who was in charge of announcing the decree, seemed to be blind, and with a smile on his face, he handed over the bright yellow holy decree that carried the thousands of meanings of Emperor Jin An to Jun Chen.
Along with it, there was also a talisman belonging to the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses.
This talisman had been held in the hands of Emperor Jin An, but from this moment on, this talisman was placed on the tray with the holy decree and was delivered to another new master.
After doing all this, Yuan Yi returned to the top and stood silently beside Emperor Jin An.
Thanks to him, Jun Chen stood up without changing his face, there was still no expression on his face, and there was even a hint of laziness in his eyes, with a lazy appearance, which made people wonder what he was thinking now.
But the eyes of those people who fell into the tray in his hands were extremely hot, and everyone understood what this talisman represented, and they all wanted to replace it.
The most hateful thing is that the parties are so breezy that they don't seem to take it to heart at all.
Through the golden curtain, Emperor Jin An's gaze stayed on him for a long time, with a slight invisible pickiness.
In the past, it was the boss who looked at his subordinates, but now, it is the father-in-law who looks at the son-in-law.
As long as I thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who I had cultivated single-handedly, was so fresh that I was with this person, I couldn't help but hate the root of my teeth.
It's a pity that even Emperor Jin An himself has to admit that the young man in front of him, or the best in Shangjing, is accompanied by a murderous person who does not blink an eye, although his reputation is not very good, but Shangjing can no longer find a fighter who can match it.
Just when the courtiers thought that this holy decree was the most important thing today, they saw His Majesty above glance at Yuan Yi next to him.
Soon, Yuan Yi came out with another holy decree, and said loudly: "The prince of the East Palace, Qi Changrong, receives the decree-"
Qi Changrong was slightly surprised, but he stepped out of the queue, knelt in the hall calmly, and his tone was light: "The son of the minister accepts the order." β
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said: Now the grassland tribes have repeatedly sought trouble in the territory of the Great Jin Dynasty, so that the flame increases, the people in the border area are not happy, fortunately, the prince of the East Palace has great benevolence, can not bear to see the people fall into the fear of suffering, in order to promote the prestige of the Great Jin Dynasty, educate the state of the barbaric, personally to the hinterland of the grassland, after countless hardships and ups and downs, and finally make the grassland barbarians surrender, relieve many people in the suffering, this is the great goodness and benevolence, through the royal ancestral hall, the posture appointed the prince of the East Palace Qi Changrong to the right of the grassland barbarians, and then reward it with the East China Sea treasure bead Sanhui, 10,000 taels of gold, a set of four treasures of the high-grade treasure study, Qin thisββ"
It wasn't until Yuan Yi finished speaking at length that the civil and military officials could barely control the change in their facial expressions.
They don't care about the many rewards in this decree, they care about the right to rule over the grasslands.
You must know that once this holy decree is issued, it means that from now on, the grassland will only belong to the East Palace - although when the prince of the East Palace succeeds to the throne in the future, the grassland will still return to the entire royal family.
But during this period, all the offerings on the grassland only belonged to the private treasury of Qi Changrong, the prince of the East Palace.
Whether it's a tax or something else.
Countless people were extremely remorseful in their hearts, but at this time, the civil and military officials couldn't say a word of rebuttal, after all, the reason why the Great Jin Dynasty was able to take the grassland was all due to the strategy of the prince of the East Palace and the cooperation of General Junda.
If they don't contribute to anything, they will naturally have no words before.
The two holy decrees respectively put the two of them on the cusp.
And the strength of these two people is enough to ignore all the wind and waves, no matter how big the wind and waves are swept in front of them, they can stand still.
Yuan Yi handed over the holy decree with a smile, and said softly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, accept the decree." β
Suppressing the surprise and surprise in his heart, Qi Changrong took the will, lowered his eyes and thanked him: "Thank you for your father's favor." β
Hearing this, Emperor Jin An let out a 'hmm', and a majestic voice sounded from above: "Get up." β
In this way, Qi Changrong returned to his original place and stood.
Looking around at the civil and military officials in the Jinluan Palace, Emperor Jin An dropped a shocking bomb on the calm lake, instantly disrupting the calm order on its surface.
"The prince is already twenty-one years old, it's time to choose the crown princess."
As soon as these words came out, the Jinluan Hall fell silent again.
Qi Changrong raised his eyes suddenly, the shock in his eyes was unabated, but he was caught off guard.
At the same time, after hearing this, Jun Chen, who was originally lazy, immediately tightened his jaw, squinted slightly and looked upward, and the momentum around his body was actually sharp.
At this time, Emperor Jin An didn't seem to notice the wind and waves surging under the lake, and continued:
"The prince's biological mother has passed away, and I have no owner in the harem, and I have full authority to inquire about the selection of the crown princess, if you have a daughter of the right age in your family, and you think that her appearance can match my prince, then I will hand over the portrait to Yuan Yi, and then I will discuss with the prince."
Suddenly, compared to the previous bottleneck, the court at this time suddenly exploded, and the courtiers were talking to each other everywhere.
Many ministers who have daughters of the right age in their families have a gleam in their eyes, and they have obviously begun to think in their hearts about how to use this one thing to make the whole family go to the next level.
You know, it's not anything else, it's the selection of the crown princess.
If his daughter is fortunate enough to be chosen, then as the mother of the crown princess and the mother of the future Great Jin Dynasty, the whole family will definitely rise to the top and have a bright future.
Not to mention anything else, as long as you don't make big mistakes after marriage, you can at least ensure the prosperity of the family for a hundred years.
The temptation is just too great, and who can't be tempted by it?
Speaking of this, a look of exhaustion welled up between Emperor Jin'an's eyebrows, and he no longer cared about the different thoughts of the people under him, but kneaded his eyebrows and waved his hand at the ministers.
"I'm tired, retreat."
After that, without waiting for the civil and military officials to send him off, Emperor Jin An suddenly looked at Jun Chen, who was a little ugly, and said lightly: "After the next dynasty, Jun Qing came to the imperial study, and I have something I want to ask Jun Qing." β
No one could guess the mind of Emperor Jin An.
Even Qi Changrong can't.
As a woman, of course she knew that she couldn't marry a wife, and she believed that her father knew it too, but her father played such a game again......
She had to suspect that at this moment, her father really wanted to marry her a crown princess, and then enshrine her in the East Palace and ignore it.
This......
Subconsciously, Qi Changrong turned his head to look at Jun Chen, who frowned tightly, and also looked at her fixedly, their eyes converged in mid-air, reading the meaning in each other's eyes.
None of them want to.
