Chapter 207: Strengthened Wings
The emperor looked at the people around him in disbelief: "What did you say?" Not only did King Jiangchuan not die in that avalanche, but he also brought back 20,000 Japanese prisoners?! ”
It's so shocking that the people who should have died out there a long time ago are now back alive!
The emperor distorted his expression with anger almost instantly, and hurriedly walked a few steps outside, looking out of the wall.
At this time, the sound of horns was faintly heard outside the palace walls.
This is to welcome Qi Moxiao's class back to the dynasty.
What other drums are there, which are heard in the emperor's ears at this moment, but they make the emperor feel so harsh!
Qian Laibaoxin's person was the spy who followed Qi Moxiao before, and this time Qi Moxiao went to Xuzhou, and he also followed Qi Moxiao.
But I never thought that such a thing would happen!
Suddenly, he hurriedly kowtowed and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the prince has really returned, and his blessings are also outside the capital, and now they are waiting for you to fall!" ”
Now, Qi Moxiao is back, and he must be rewarded for it.
After all, this time Qi Moxiao returned to the capital, not only as before, but also as a nameless king of Jiangchuan, but also a hero of their court and the entire Central Plains!
If it weren't for him, the wouldn't have invaded.
After all, there are 30,000 people, and it is easy to invade a city.
At that time, if these people should cooperate with their original troops, it will be the emperor's own side who will suffer.
Even though the emperor wants to deal with Qi Moxiao now, after hearing about this matter, he has some contradictions in his heart.
Yes, he really wants to deal with Qi Moxiao, but if there is no Qi Moxiao, then those would-be robbers will successfully invade, and the emperor will definitely have the reputation of a mediocre monarch at that time.
This reputation is not so good, he has been doing everything in his life, and has left a lot of outstanding achievements in this history book, and he must not let such a thing ruin the reputation he has worked so hard to accumulate before!
Otherwise, the things that the emperor did before would be meaningless.
A complicated color flashed in his eyes, and in the end, the churning servitude and unwillingness in his heart fell silent at this moment.
He is an emperor, and he has been an emperor in this court for many years, and no one knows better than him how to manage emotions, and he will not let these emotions affect him to make correct judgments.
Immediately, the emperor turned around and went back to the room, while instructing the people around him: "Someone! Give me a wide coat! ”
He needed to change into a court robe to show his respect for Qi Moxiao.
At this time, after returning from outside, Qi Moxiao had already arrived at the Jinluan Palace to wait.
This place is where everyone usually goes to court, and no one thought that Qi Moxiao would be able to come back from outside alive this time.
And what these people didn't expect was that Qi Moxiao actually caught so many widows and came back, this is simply their hero!
For a while, the people who originally wanted to deal with Qi Moxiao, and even wanted to let Qi Moxiao die at this time, hated Qi Moxiao one by one.
But now they didn't dare to say anything in front of Qi Moxiao, and the people who kept criticizing Qi Moxiao before also became mute at this time.
I saw that after Qi Moxiao glanced at the people around him, a shallow smile appeared on his lips, which looked a little meaningless, and no one knew why Qi Moxiao could remain calm at this time.
And at this moment, no matter how well the previous minister knew him, he couldn't say anything at this time, let alone boast that he could guess Qi Moxiao's thoughts.
Because Qi Moxiao now seems to be very different from the past.
And Qi Moxiao didn't wait long, and saw that the emperor had already put on a grand court dress and came out, and there was an excited smile on his face: "King Jiangchuan is really powerful!" In this disaster relief, so many prisoners were captured so coincidentally! I must reward you greatly! Now you are a great hero of our people! ”
This time, he spoke directly to resolve the embarrassment, and he didn't say a word about the previous incident, as if it had never happened.
Qi Moxiao's face also remained unchanged, and after calmly saluting the emperor, he said with a smile: "The emperor praised falsely, this time the minister was able to win the battle, thanks to those soldiers in the army." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at his hand with some regret, and his face was still a little pale: "However, when I was hunting before, the minister's body was already much worse than before, and now on the battlefield, I also rely on the help of these soldiers, otherwise, I'm afraid the minister won't be able to come back this time." ”
The last time he was in the hunting ground, the emperor already wanted to do something to Qi Moxiao.
UI Qi Moxiao injured himself with internal strength, and it seemed that his life was on the verge of death, so the emperor let him go.
But this method will not work forever, and Qi Moxiao also knows that he must change the way to let the emperor spare his life.
At least, he will never die until his great cause is completed.
Listening to Qi Moxiao's words, the surrounding ministers glanced at each other one by one, but they were all a little disbelieving.
What about the crooks?
If this prince is really not in good health, he will go back to Xuzhou for disaster relief?
And, how could he possibly win this seemingly impossible war?
But the emperor glanced at him meaningfully, still with an appreciative smile on his face, without the slightest change, but after listening to Qi Moxiao's words, he turned around heartily and laughed: "Haha!" Good! Not sure what reward you want this time? ”
Reward or something, Qi Moxiao doesn't care very much.
He just said respectfully: "The emperor's heart is about the world, it is a good thing, the minister thinks, it is better to give these rewards to those soldiers, this time to win the battle, those soldiers are the most paid, the minister just came up with some ideas." ”
His humble words raised his height to another level.
However, he is a dignified hero of the court, and he is not rewarded, is this like a word?
A sneer flashed in the emperor's eyes, and then he turned around and said lightly: "What the prince said is reasonable, but you care about the people, I know, but those soldiers, I will reward them separately, you can rest assured." ”
Hearing the emperor say this, Qi Moxiao breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, the emperor." ”
Immediately, he saluted and thanked the emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, I don't know what do you plan to do with those captured soldiers outside?" ”
The emperor shook his head, raised his hand and said, "Don't worry, there is really a question I don't understand, and I want to ask the prince for advice." ”
As an emperor, he is rich and rich, what is there that he needs to ask Qi Moxiao for advice?
A dark glint flashed in Qi Moxiao's eyes, but he didn't show it at this time, he just smiled slightly, and then said to him, "Your Majesty, please speak." ”
"I wonder how the Japanese invaded this time? What does the prince think? ”
The emperor looked at Qi Moxiao thoughtfully, and asked incomprehensibly, his tone was very gentle, but the meaning in it made people's scalps tingle.
This is clearly suspecting that Qi Moxiao lied!
Moreover, those Japanese invaders chose to invade at this time, which also shows that there may be another reason for this, maybe there are internal ghosts who let these people in!
Such thoughts have been very clearly expressed in the emperor's words just now.
If he still didn't understand at this time, then Qi Moxiao had already died several times in the previous confrontations with Qi Ziyu.
Sure enough, after hearing the emperor's words, Qi Moxiao pursed his lips and said: "At this time, the minister has already sent people to investigate, it is those Japanese who have been ambushed in Xuzhou a few years ago, such as today's turmoil, they see the opportunity at this time and prepare to attack, if it were not for the strength of the soldiers this time, I am afraid that we may not win this war." ”
He was not arrogant, and he did not even say that it was because of her that he won the war.
The emperor nodded with satisfaction, and then did not continue to ask about this matter, but said: "Very good, the prince is still well-taught, brave and good at fighting, it seems that this capital, this world can not be without the prince." ”
What?!
The emperor actually gave Qi Moxiao such a high evaluation? !
In an instant, these people who were just watching the joke were stunned one by one.
Especially those ministers, when they just saw the emperor coming, they thought that the emperor was finally going to ask Qi Moxiao for ignoring it, after all, those Japanese invaded in, and if they were bold, they made up a crime, and framed Qi Moxiao for defending the city, and if those Japanese invaded the city, then Qi Moxiao would also lose the hearts of the people in the hearts of the people.
However, this kind of thing is a little difficult to control, and if one is not done well, the direction of public opinion will be biased, and the emperor's credibility will also be damaged at that time.
This kind of half-to-general thing is a bit risky for the emperor, and he won't do it.
For a while, the expectations of these courtiers were disappointed.
And the one who fell into the air together was Qi Ziyu who was standing next to him.
As early as when he heard the news, he had already rushed to the Jinluan Palace, originally to meet the emperor, he wanted to talk to the emperor alone for a while, but the emperor did not give him this opportunity at all.
Even, now in the entire imperial court, almost half of the forces are controlled by Qi Moxiao!
This kind of control is not that Qi Moxiao has bought them, but that Qi Moxiao has inserted eyeliner into it, and he can know the news of these people at any time.
Therefore, if Qi Ziyu continues to fight with Qi Moxiao in the court now, he is equivalent to being under Qi Moxiao's control in every move, which is very unfavorable for Qi Ziyu!
Seeing that the emperor left here with Qi Moxiao, he went to the imperial study to speak, and he had already prepared a holy decree to give Qi Moxiao a reward.
Wasn't everything he had done before in vain?
This made Qi Ziyu a little difficult to accept.
Slowly, he stood behind and watched it all, almost breaking his teeth.
But at this time, Qi Moxiao seemed to be aware of it, and suddenly turned around and glanced at him!
