"The border defenders are rotated, Your Majesty intends to reunite General Xiang's family, and then General Wang will go to garrison, and this matter will be handed over to Gu Cheng to do."

A group of scholars and officials above the third rank of the court and the central government gathered around the side hall of the imperial study to distribute work.

The prime minister is in charge of the three provinces, and it is reasonable for him to hand over this matter to him to downgrade the score. The important thing is that everyone knows that he is the emperor's man and does not belong to any faction. Prime Minister Gu can be said to be one-handed in the court, and the crown prince and the eldest prince are trying their best to pull people, but they have never seen him express his position. Although he plays the role of the prince's teacher, he does not participate in the dispute between the two parties.

There is no doubt about always being loyal to the emperor.

"There are thirty new students in the Hanlin Academy, and another thirty people have left, and the vacancy needs to be run in, and I would like to ask you to mention it." Gu Changfeng has had a lot of chores these days, and he has stayed up for many nights, and now it is a little blue and dark, and he doesn't forget to tell him about Xinhanlin when it is approaching.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister, we will do our part." The scholar of Hallym Academy assured.

"Do the ministries still have important matters to discuss?" Gu Changfeng glanced around and saw that there was indeed something else to report.

Lu Youzhi, the squire of the military department, stood up and played: "Yesterday, I received an urgent report from the border gate, and a man who claimed to be from Tianqi took twenty or thirty people to escape from Beiban all the way to our border, and was not lightly injured, and was recuperating in the Mobei camp at this time. ”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Can you find out what is the man's name and whose name is it? Do you have family in Tianqi? Gu Changfeng was surprised in his heart, and the ministers present were all full of interest.

This is big news, since the founding of Tianqi, I haven't seen anyone escape from danger - they have escaped from Beiban.

"Yes, according to the information that came back, the man who was the leader was the Jinzhou people of Tianqi, followed the dart bureau to the north, and the war was chaotic and there was a natural disaster, it happened that the Beiban caught the Tianqi people, they were the group that was captured, a group of people have been working hard in the Beiban for more than ten years, and finally found a chance to escape back, this matter must be known to His Majesty, and that group of people is very important, they are much stronger than secret agents." Lu Youzhi, the squire of the military department, said slowly.

"That's right, they have lived in the North Barbarians for more than ten years, and they always know a lot of North Barbarian secrets, if they can use it a little, it will become a magic weapon for us to defeat the enemy."

"I don't really believe it, if they have become the people of the Northern Barbarians, and now they are coming back just to steal the secrets of Tianqi's intelligence, wouldn't they be raising tigers?" The Ministry of Industry Shangshu said.

The soldier retorted: "The leader is called Wang Liyue, he also inquired about the news of his family like us, I received this newspaper yesterday and sent someone to Jinzhou to confirm whether there are traces of this person's existence, the north is far away in the north, and Jinzhou is located in the south of Tianqi, is it possible that Wang Liyue made up an address and people in order to make us believe?" This must not be groundless. ”

"Yes or no, we'll see if it's confirmed." Gu Changfeng blocked everyone's quarrel. "This is a big matter, and I need to ask His Majesty what he means."

"What the prime minister said is reasonable." Three, three, two, two, two.

"What else is there to play?" Gu Changfeng spoke.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Gu Changfeng waved his hand and told everyone to disperse.

Gu Changfeng and the rest of the ministers of the humerus are still in the palace, and they will report to Qiguan on today's major events later, and some uncertainties will be handed over to Qiguan to decide. At this time, Qi Guan looked hopelessly ill, and the queen took care of it herself, and she was distressed.

"Old man, when you say that you are white-headed, you see that I am still black-haired, you are not allowed to play Leon." Empress Shangguan pinched a handkerchief and wiped the medicine stains on the corner of Qi Guan's mouth, and said bitterly.

In this deep palace, the only one who understands the emperor's love for the emperor is the queen Shangguan.

Where is there anything to fight for love? It's all for the so-called power or for the family.

Shangguan's family has been by Qiguan's side since childhood, and the two are childhood sweethearts, and they have no family bonds, and they have a deep relationship. The emperor also gave most of his personal affairs to the empress.

But after all, the emperor is a man who sits on the world, and although he has been good with the queen for more than 30 years, he will inevitably steal food. The emperor has a lot of heads outside the palace, but the emperor is merciful but does not leave seeds.

Therefore, the entire Tianqi is quite clean, with only four princes and two princesses.

There is no chaos in the battle between the princes, in general, there are only two factions fighting, which is much stronger than many dynasties when the nine sons and the three kings compete for hegemony.

"Alas, Ah Liu, I'm afraid I don't have many days left, while I'm still conscious, you go out, go and invite Prime Minister Gu and the three generations of Duke Yin Guo and General Zhenyuan in." Qi Guan looked like he was about to lose his breath at any time, and took Shangguan's hand and said.

Shangguan's tears gushed out uncontrollably, although the emperor was not dead, she just couldn't help it.

"Okay, concubine will go." Shangguan knew that Qi Guan was going to make a will. There is no doubt that the future throne will belong to his son. In addition, as long as the eldest prince does not become a demon, his end will be the vassal king, and he will cut the vassal when his son ascends the throne.

Gu Changfeng stepped into the emperor's bedroom a few times, and stayed inside for three full hours without coming out.

Jin Guifei sent someone to inquire about the news every other hour, but all she got was not out. Qi Guanxuan was not her son's person, and of course it was not the prince's person. It was really strange, did the emperor know that they had taken their positions in private?

"Niangniang, Concubine Duan asks to see you." The tall waitress came in from outside to report.

"Let her in."

Concubine Duan is dressed in plain palace clothes today, and the whole palace almost does not dare to wear bright clothes again, the emperor is seriously ill, and he wears a fancy dress, isn't he looking for mold?

"Mother's luck." Concubine Duan's blessing is a blessing.

Shangguan's family knew why Concubine Duan came, the palace test had just passed, and there were several young people of school age, and Concubine Duan couldn't sit still.

Without waiting for Shangguan to speak, Concubine Duan herself said: "Niangniang should know why the concubine came, the concubine's move is intended to be happy for His Majesty, after the concubine heard about the palace test, His Majesty was happy to be able to get up and deal with government affairs, and the concubine was also ......"

"Okay, this palace knows." Shangguan concealed his eyes with a trace of impatience, and said in a gentle tone: "I treat Xin'er's child as my own, I have noticed, there are four marriageable men in the palace examination who are suitable for being Xin'er's husbands, among which the new champion is seventeen, which is a good one, and then the son of Gu Xiang's family is also seventeen, the second class is the ninth Guan Shangxuan is twenty years old, and the third class is Hu Shifeng is twenty-four this year, and the family background is also relatively good, I don't know if Concubine Duan has a favorite person?" ”

Concubine Duan can come over, so naturally she has already had her own considerations, and she has also discussed it with her daughter Princess Jiayuan (Qi Jingxin).

The new champion is seventeen, but the family is used to widows, although she is outstanding in appearance but has no good luck, Concubine Duan is afraid that her daughter will be widowed within a few years of marriage. As for that Hu Shifeng, twenty-six years old is too old, and his daughter is only fifteen years old, and it is very troublesome for the royal marriage to marry, and when his daughter marries, Hu Shifeng will be twenty-eight or nine.
