Chapter 54: The Little Emperor Who Lacks Love
The Queen Mother was slightly stunned, and then her expression became cold, and her gentle tone was a little stern: "The emperor has already rewarded her with gold and jewelry, isn't it enough?" β
Li Jingnan replied: "General Fu asked her to be titled, so that her identity is enough to supervise the weapons manufacturing of the Ordnance Superintendent!" β
At the mention of Fu Tingye, the queen mother's face became a little colder, "Isn't it ridiculous for a woman to supervise important military offices?" Fortunately, Prime Minister Zuo tried his best to dissuade him, so he didn't let the emperor cause a big disaster! If the emperor really disregarded the courtiers' dissuasion, he would only make the world laugh! It will also give King Ning an opportunity! β
"But Hua Qingxue has made a great contribution to improving the weapon this time, how can she use a mere silver to send it away?!" Li Jingnan's heart was very indignant, "Once that sword is cast, I am no longer afraid of any sharp weapons of the Liao soldiers!" And the bow! The queen mother knows that if such a bow and arrow are taken to the battlefield, my soldiers are bound to be invincible! The recovery of the six states is just around the corner! β
This is what makes Li Jingnan the most indignant, "Hua Qingxue made this great achievement, but was questioned by those mediocre people as women!" These people ...... One by one, they only care about their own enjoyment of peace and prosperity, I want to ask them, have they done anything for me?! β
"The emperor is cautious!" The Queen Mother suddenly shouted, not asking Li Jingnan to continue, "Your Majesty...... How can you criticize your own courtiers in such a way? β
Her face was cold, obviously not in danger, looking at her young and impulsive son, she took a deep breath to calm her mood, "...... Your Majesty, was you bewitched by that Fu Tingye? In fact, those are just his words, what is the ability of this woman surnamed Hua to control troops, it still needs to be verified, maybe there is another capable person in the middle? After all, women's soldiers are unheard of, and besides, the emperor must not forget ......"
Li Jingnan looked at the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother sighed, and then said: "The emperor must not forget how Fu Tingye forced you and my mother and son to agree to make him king. β
Li Jingnan frowned when he heard this, of course he knew about it.
When he was about to arrive in Shengjing City, Fu Tingye told him very cautiously that his father had died, and his uncle King Ning was planning to usurp the throne, and there were only two ways in front of him-
Either flee for your life immediately and give up the throne to your uncle King Ning.
Either go to Beijing and give it a go, Fu Tingye can save his life without worry.
But in this way, it is equivalent to Fu Tingye being an enemy of King Ning head-on, so Fu Tingye asked Li Jingnan to crown him king as soon as he ascended the throne.
The king has a fief, and the fief has the right to support the army.
Fu Tingye was originally in a high position and had almost half of the military power of Daqi, and now with the fiefdom, he could recruit his own private soldiers, which was equivalent to immediately having the strength to compete with King Ning.
It can be said that if King Ning doesn't get rid of Fu Tingye, even if he sits as emperor, it will be useless, and he may be killed by Fu Tingye at any time, he can only get rid of Fu Tingye first, so that he can ascend the throne as king without worry.
Although Li Jingnan was young, he was born in the royal family since he was a child and was raised as an heir, so he naturally knew these twists and turns very well, and agreed to Fu Tingye's request without hesitation.
But for the Queen Mother...... Fu Tingye was a little suspicious of narrow-mindedness.
The same news, Fu Tingye also brought it to the queen at that time.
He knew that the prince was young, and it was useless to persuade the prince, and more importantly, it was more important to let the queen behind the prince agree with his relatives.
The queen was immersed in the grief of the emperor's death, her only young son was in the hands of Fu Tingye, and there was no other choice at all, although she agreed to Fu Tingye, but at the same time, she also hated Fu Tingye!
Li Jingnan has always admired soldiers like Fu Tingye stationed at the border, and he has heard a lot of Fu Tingye's deeds from the emperor since he was a child, so although he was coerced to give the other party the title of king, he did not have a strong resistance like the queen mother.
"General Fu has been guarding the border of my Daqi for many years, and he has made countless achievements, and he deserves to be the marquis and king, and now the government and the opposition are complicated, and with General Fu as a containment, those people who are installed in the court by King Ning can also be restrained."
Li Jingnan said, paused, frowned and said: "Moreover, Hua Qingxue is Hua Qingxue, General Fu is General Fu, what does the queen mother do about those things, Hua Qingxue has made a great contribution, and it should be rewarded." β
The queen sank, "Isn't ten thousand taels of silver enough to be rewarded?" β
"Queen Mother!" Li Jingnan replied helplessly, "Those silver taels are military salaries!" It's the money allocated to the battalion to make new weapons! Hua Qingxue's reward is nothing more than some jewels and jade Ruyi......"
The Queen Mother said coldly: "How can you be sure that it is not Fu Tingye's plan?" Xu is the one who deceived us, in order to attack the idea of the treasury and collect money for personal gain! β
"Then why use such a reason? Whether the weapon has been improved or not, you will know if you try it! And General Fu is not that kind of person......"
"Does the emperor know what kind of person he is? Fu Tingye is a wolf with ambitions, the emperor must not be deceived by him, now that King Ning and him check and balance each other, we will have a corner of peace, if King Ning is not there, I am afraid that Fu Tingye will immediately force into the capital! β
"Erchen knows that Uncle Huang's rebellion has hit the queen mother deeply, but Fu Tingye and Uncle Huang are by no means the same kind of people."
"No one can resist the temptation of power." The Queen Mother was unmoved, and said gloomily, "Even if it is a former sibling, even if it is a heroic general who takes the lead, people will change." β
Li Jingnan felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
He wanted to say that Fu Tingye was not that kind of person, but as the queen mother said...... People are subject to change.
Wasn't the imperial uncle gentle and modest? A tiger escaped from the beast park in the palace, and the imperial uncle almost died in order to save him, and his back was injured and bloody, but afterwards he comforted him who was scared and cried, saying: The man has tears and does not flick, Jing Nan is fine.
The imperial uncle who treated him so well, but now, for that position, he did not hesitate to put him to death......
Li Jingnan lowered his eyes and looked at the porridge on the table, and he had lost his appetite.
He stood up and whispered, "Queen Mother, Erchen will return first." β
The Queen Mother frowned, and wanted to say a few words, but she remembered Li Jingnan's words that she didn't know the height of the sky, and felt that he was young and needed a lot of polishing, so she changed her words and said: "You can't slack off in your studies on weekdays, and you must keep in mind the governance of the country and the economy, you can go." β
Li Jingnan's heart was filled with astringency, and he couldn't tell what it was like.
He didn't even smile, he turned away with a wooden face.
Leaving the palace, he stood on the quaint flat floor tiles, vaguely aware of when he began, and every time he came here, it seemed that he would end up unhappy......
β¦β¦
Hua Qingxue is leaving the barracks.
Although Liang Jian repeatedly emphasized that Hua Qingxue would come back in the future, he still attracted many craftsmen to send him off.
The outside of the Qingzhou camp was full of people, and some soldiers who were not practicing also came to join in the fun.
"Miss Hua, don't forget our crossbow ......"
"And the arrows of our battalion! Is it possible to improve it as well? β
"Miss Hua! And our armor battalion, can the toughness of chain mail be improved? β
"Don't forget our shields! How to improve resistance on the basis of weight reduction......"
Liang Wensheng roared angrilyββ
"You guys! Isn't it addictive to improvement?! Get back to work! β
Hua Qingxue covered her mouth and smiled.
"Let's go." Fu Tingye lifted the curtain of the carriage door.
There was a sudden silence......
None of these people knew that there was a general sitting in the carriage.
Liang Wensheng glanced at them with disdain, and said in his heart: Now stupid, right?! Make a fuss about you!
Hua Qingxue waved her hand at everyone gently, "I remember it, it's just that weapon improvement is not an overnight thing, everyone has been tired during this time, and I will come to see you next time." β
The atmosphere has finally come to life!
A group of people began to talk and laugh again, but because the general was watching from the sidelines, they naturally didn't dare to be as arrogant as just now, and said one by one very obediently: "Miss Hua has a good trip." β
Hua Qingxue sat in the carriage.
Fu Tingye said in a deep voice: "The weapons supervisor should put these people in order, it should be their duty to improve weapons, but now it's good, it's all counting on you alone." β
"Everyone is very hardworking." Hua Qingxue's eyes widened and she spoke for the craftsmen, "And at most, I can only teach them from the way of thinking, and in the end, the specific materials and production still depend on them." β
Fu Tingye glanced at her silently.
I don't know if it's an illusion, what does Hua Qingxue think...... He seems to have tasted it? Like a child!
"What are you going to do when you get back?" Fu Tingye retracted his gaze and asked lightly.
"Oh......" Hua Qingxue tilted her head and thought about it, stretched out her finger and gestured slowly, "I should clean up first, I haven't lived at home for so long, I must have fallen a layer of soil, and then I have to buy clothes, now that the weather is getting warmer and warmer, I can't make clothes, I can only go to the street to buy ready-to-wear clothes...... I haven't seen Aunt He for a long time, I want to go and see, and buy rice and oil......"
babbled a bunch of things, all trivial things.
Fu Tingye actually listened very carefully.
"I'll ask Zhao Sheng to transfer a few maids to do things for you." He couldn't help frowning as he spoke, "It's not over if you live directly in the General's Mansion, there's no such trouble!" β
Hua Qingxue blushed and shook her head slightly, "I'm really not used to it." β
Fu Tingye still had a calm face, dissatisfied.
His current state belongs, and he can't wait to brand Hua Qingxue from head to toe.
Hua Qingxue thought for a moment and said softly, "And...... After going back this time, I will make some soap out, I ordered a batch of molds to be done, if the soap goes well, it is very likely to make a new weapon, I don't like to do things next to someone, it will be easy to be distracted, affecting the success or failure rate. β
When Fu Tingye heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, "New weapons? β
Hua Qingxue saw that his expression had changed, and secretly slandered: He is worthy of being a general, and it is better to talk about food and drink than to talk about weapons to attract his attention.
"I just have some ideas now, which have yet to be verified." Hua Qingxue looked at his face and gently pulled the corner of Fu Tingye's clothes, "So, general, don't stuff people into my residence, what if the experiment of the new weapon is messed up?" β
Fu Tingye pondered for a moment and made a decisive decision, "I'll ask Zhao Sheng to assign two strong family members to guard the door for you, so that you won't be disturbed when you are doing things." β
Hua Qingxue: "......"
Is that a ...... Outsmart oneself?
