Jia Zhu and the other tributes followed the official into Ziwei City.

The civil and military officers standing outside the Yingtian Gate lined up their shifts and prepared to enter the palace.

Although today is the day of the palace test, it is not in the same place as the main hall where the tributes are located.

Today is a small dynasty, which is held in the Kaihuang Hall behind the Ming Hall. The palace test is in the north of the Kaihuang Palace, and the Ming Hall and the Kaihuang Hall are one of the three major halls of Ziwei City.

They take their test, and we go to our worst.

However, today's palace examination always has some influence, for example, at least the three rank officials who came today are also small, and the number of them is also small, and after a while, I will go to the Huiyou Hall in the back with the emperor to observe the examination of the tributes.

The emperor leaked a face in the Huiyou Palace, and then came to the front of the Kaihuang Palace.

The number of participants is less, and there are a lot fewer trivial things. It's all big things to discuss.

"The minister Jia Hui has a performance, and the heart of Donghu is known to the world! The ministers asked the saint to send the six masters to please the ministers! ”

Jia Hui, as a lieutenant and the head of the military attachés of the Great Qi, always wants to give his subordinates a chance to be promoted and make a fortune.

Now it is possible to fight and there is a war, that is, Donghu in the southwest.

Although Jia Hui knew in his heart that the emperor would definitely not agree, but if there are dates or not, what if the emperor agrees?

"Qisheng Sheng, although Donghu transferred troops to move to our border, the king of Donghu gave me the statement that the rebellion was cleared, and our army was deficient in starting a war and righteousness!"

The first assistant and the great uncle Li Xiang immediately went out to refute Jia Hui's request to send troops.

Today's foreign strategy is to restore the prestige and credibility that have been destroyed by the emperor, and never take the initiative to attack if the battle can be turned into a self-defense counterattack.

Once in the reign of Taizu Taizong, all the countries came to the dynasty, under the same means as the emperor's old hooligans, the international prestige and credibility plummeted, except for a few countries bordering the Great Qi or across the sea is really unable to escape, almost all countries have cut off the tribute during the emperor's reign.

"Donghu and our dynasty have not been dirty, and the matter of conquest should not be mentioned again. It's just that the armaments of the southwestern armies are outdated, and the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry, and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies need to complete the redressing as soon as possible. ”

"Your Ministers obey!"

The two Shangshu of the military and engineering departments also went out together, after Li Xiang and Jia Hui, and bowed down to the emperor who was sitting under His Majesty Dan.

Jia Hui didn't say anything more, and quietly returned to his queue, ranking first in the martial arts class.

This set of procedures has been going back and forth for a month, and it is nothing more than singing red face and white face with the emperor.

For example, some Nanyang countries close to Daqi sent envoys to Daqi to express their intention to restore tribute after hearing about Daqi's handling of Donghu.

"The Emperor of the DPRK came to report that the king of Joseon had passed away on the 27th of March, and that the Joseon State had asked me to give me a gift and to ask for an edict for the prince Li Xiang."

"What? Li Rongxue? ”

The Emperor was shocked by the sudden news and muttered in disbelief.

The Korean king Li Cheng and the emperor are of the same age, when Li Rong, who was still the prince of the king, studied in Beiping Guozijian, he was like-minded with the emperor who was the third son of the emperor at that time, and the emperor often took Li Cheng to play around and laugh at Beiping City

"The man is gone." The Emperor let out a long sigh.

"I remember, he's only a young man, right? Where are the Korean envoys? ”

"The envoy is waiting outside the palace."

Honglu Temple Qing bowed and replied.

"Xuan!"

"Announce the Korean envoy's visit!"

"Envoy of Xuankon"

The Han generals who stood on both sides of the court called their names one after another, and soon, a eunuch led the Korean envoys in plain clothes into the Kaihuang Palace.

"Bang", I lay on the ground and saluted His Majesty!

Trembling, he barely completed the rites of the envoy's visit, and the Korean envoy began to weep bitterly like a cuckoo weeping blood, and then crawled in the direction of Dan Majesty on his knees.

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, I. . . My king died on the twenty-seventh day of the last month! ”

After speaking, the Korean envoy began to cry loudly, and the deputy envoy who came in also cried with the envoy.

The civil and military officers of Daqi were expressionless, watching the performance of the envoys with cold eyes.

The Joseon king's reputation on the peninsula is inhuman.

"Don't cry! Tell me quickly, what is the cause of your Korean kings! ”

The Emperor interrupted the performance of the two envoys under the Imperial Order, glaring at them.

"The first king was on his way to hunt when he was attacked by a tiger."

Scold.

Jia Hui sneered in her heart.

Nonsense, if the king doesn't drive away the large predators in the hunting ground before hunting, does he think that his own king can tear the tiger and leopard by hand or can he return the pillar?

Even if you don't drive them away and want to hunt them specifically, what about the pro-army that accompanies the king? If you don't protect yourself closely, you just let the tiger get close to the king?

This is because the things on your neck are too heavy, and you want to loosen up, right?

"Nonsense!" The emperor's envoys shouted violently, obviously he also understood this.

"Your Majesty! What the minister said is true! Your Majesty! ”

The two envoys cried louder.

"Your Excellency, the minister thinks that an envoy should be sent to investigate the cause of the death of the king of Joseon!"

Honglu Siqing immediately went out to report the class.

It doesn't matter if you can find out or not, the attitude must be laid out.

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

There are people in the civil and military classes who have come out of the class to respond.

"Minister, second!" In the end, Jia Hui also went out of work to join in the fun.

"Accurate!"

The emperor stared at the two Korean envoys deadly, and his chest was full of murderous intent.

If it weren't for the rule of not killing envoys, or if it wasn't for his goal of restoring the prestige and credibility of Daqi

That Li Wei is no longer a person in North Korea, and he is also the henchman who followed his ass behind Chen Sanye's ass back then!

"This, this. Ministers and ministers obey His Majesty's decree"

The envoy couldn't speak, so he could only hold back the uneasiness in his heart and kneel on the ground to receive the decree of thanksgiving.

"Your Majesty, the country cannot be without a king for a day, the prince of our country is filial piety, gentle, and gentle, and the ministers implore His Majesty the Emperor to give him an edict of canonization!"

After speaking, the North Korean envoy once again threw himself to the ground.

"Li Xiang?" The emperor thought about it, although he was not Li Cheng's son-in-law, he was also the oldest prince who lived to adulthood.

"Yes"

"The Ministers are playing the Holy Lord."

Jia Hui suddenly came out of class and stood in front of the two envoys to the right.

"Captain?" The two envoys looked at Jia Hui, who was killed halfway, and were a little dazed.

"Quasi-play."

The emperor was a little surprised, except for the daily recital of the attack on Donghu or the recital related to the army, Jia Hui sat there without saying a word.

"Qi Sheng, the minister heard that the reputation of Li Xiang, the prince of the king, among the people of the foreign domain, is quite unusual, and it seems that he still has some complaints about North Korea as a foreign vassal of the Great Qi. On the contrary, Li Zhen, the prince of Linping, the ninth son of the king, has a good reputation among the people, and is now studying "The Mean" in Luoyang Guozijian."

After speaking, Jia Hui returned to the martial arts class.

To avenge the apparent unnatural death of the former king of the vassal kingdom, and for the sake of the people of the vassal kingdom, he chose to appoint a benevolent and loving king

Daqi is really the world's first-class excellent suzerain!

"Your Majesty, that's not the case!"

The envoy panicked and was about to explain to the emperor.

But the civil and military officials who followed Jia Hui out of class and shouted seconded the proposal concealed their somewhat pale arguments

"Yes, after my Daqi sends a mission to investigate the cause of the death of the former king of Erguo, the court will decide who is responsible. King of Joseon. ”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

"Retreat!"

"I wish my emperor a long time!"

The civil and military ministers hurriedly got up and bowed to the emperor, and waited for the emperor to walk out of the palace before he straightened up.

The North Korean envoy jumped up and was about to stop Jia Hui, wanting to argue with him.

"Captain, the foreign minister has something to say"

"Get out of the way."

Squinting at the envoy who was in his way.

The envoy's intuition was as if he was being targeted by a devouring tiger, and his scalp exploded and he was stunned on the spot, and he was covered in a cold sweat.

Jia Hui pushed him away and came to Li Xiang's side, and walked out of the Kaihuang Palace with a smile.

"Hehe, Uncle Zong, now that my brother Zhu is about to become a Jinshi, shouldn't I prepare?"

"Oh? Hahaha, what are these words? The Li family was ready early in the morning, and after the ceremony of Brother Zhu'er, they were ready for the wedding on an auspicious day! ”

"Ha, that's a good feeling!"

After a few more polite words with Li Xiang, the two separated.

To be honest, the two don't know each other very well, if it weren't for Jia Zhu's niece who was about to marry Li Xiang's niece, they wouldn't have come together to say a few words.

There is a difference between civil and military.

"Oh, the captain is in the limelight today."

A burst of yin and yang strange words came from behind him, and Jia Hui turned his head to look.

"Yo, isn't this a big Si Nong?"

The person who came was none other than the head of the household, Shangshu Xia Tong.

Since Xia Tong welcomed Jia Hui into the city at the gate of the city a few months ago, the two became acquainted with each other, and gradually rushed away in the direction of the New Year's Friendship.

"There must be something wrong with the death of the king of Joseon, but why did you meddle in the throne of Joseon? Wouldn't it be good to let Li Xiang, who is not human-like, as you say, take the throne? Wouldn't it be wonderful to wait for Li Xiang to make the heavens angry and resentful, and I will send the king to fight the unreasonable, punish the tyrant, and completely annex Korea? ”

Xia Tong was a little puzzled.

In his opinion, whether it is the two classes of nobles in North Korea or the common people, they all admire China, and even the royal family of the Li family has wanted to attach Great Qi several times.

Isn't it good to take the opportunity to swallow?

"I don't think it's good, it's useless to annex that poor place, the output is pitiful, and the poor are left, but they want the imperial court to contribute money and efforts to relief, rather than annexing North Korea, I want to get the Kyushu Island of the Akane or Wa Kingdom in my hands"

"It doesn't matter if you have money or food, the court has money. And don't they admire China and want to attach it many times? ”

"Just talk about it, don't look at them as if they are going to drown in the Yalu water if they don't let them attach, it is estimated that once they are allowed to be attached, they will become the most staunch independents one by one, and maybe there will be clamoring to go north to conquer Qi

After all, if you can be the emperor of the soil on your own one-third of an acre of land, and be a first-class person as a prestige, who would want to have an extra group of big dads on their heads to take care of them? ”

"Then why did you choose that Maharaja to be the king of Joseon?"

"Because he is close to Qi, his ears are also soft, and I Daqi pushed him to the top, he is not a grandson and has no main force of the mother's family, he must follow my Daqi pace and be a dog, easy to control."

"I see, it's worthy of being a captain, it's the heart."

"Hehe, each other, Dasi Nong is not bad"

"Then again, if the captain thinks that North Korea has no output, then why should he support a puppet to take the throne? Figure what? ”

"I don't know, but it's not a bad thing, maybe it will come in handy at some point, and most importantly, I think it's interesting."

"Then North Korea has really fallen into blood mold for eight lifetimes when he meets Taiwei."

"Hehe, I've won awards"

Laughing and laughing, the civil and military officers present went around to the Kaihuang Palace and found the emperor who had changed into his regular clothes.

"Ministers, come with me into the Huiyou Hall to see what talents I have in the new subject of Daqi!"

The emperor quickly adjusted his mood because he was affected by the death of his old brother.

boarded the chariot, and also gave the old and frail ministers a few small chambers to carry the sedan chair, and the emperor took the civil and military people towards the Huiyou Palace.

。。。。。。

Huiyou Palace.

A group of scholars are doing their best to write a strategy.

Jia Zhu is also seriously writing his own strategy.

"By the way, what are the four problems this year?"

Outside the hall, Jia Hui asked the waiter of the Ministry of Rites beside him.

"Hui Taiwei is a policy related to diplomacy, internal affairs, foreign wars, and the Yellow River." The squire replied.

"Yellow River?"

"Yes, the Taiwei should also remember the incident of the Bianliang embankment burst a few years ago, right? In recent years, the climate has become more and more abnormal, just in case, the emperor and the saint plan to take advantage of the money and affordability, and strive to manage the Yellow River well. ”

"Shouldn't this kind of thing be done to the Ministry of Works? Or recruit water conservancy talents from the people and let this group of new science and technology scholars who are not familiar with general affairs write a strategy, which is a bit "Jia Hui wants to speak and stops."

"Actually, this question was specially designed by the Holy One for one person." Shilang thought about it and felt that it was no problem to know these things with Jia Hui's status.

"You see, sitting under the second pillar on the right, the tribute in a green robe, his name is Wan Chengxun, the ancestor is Wan Shen, the master of the previous dynasty, the saint wants to try his quality, in addition, what if he really encounters a self-taught genius in water control."

Ah, got it.

Just as he was whispering to the squire, the emperor took the lead in entering the palace.

The chamberlains had already been instructed to be careful, and they were all silent, allowing the emperor and the civil and military officers to look around to check the strategies of the tributes.

The sharp-eyed Jia Hui discovered Jia Zhu's location at a glance, but he didn't plan to go over right away.

Out of curiosity about what the squire said about Wan Chengxun, Opportunity planned to go over to see his water control strategy first.

The sound of messy footsteps had already caught the attention of the tributes, but they did not dare to look up.

After all, looking directly at the sky is to kill the head.

At least until they entered the court and became big shots.

Wan Chengxun also found that someone was coming towards him, but he was the time when Wen Si was springing, let alone the emperor, even the Great Qi Ancestors and Ancestors Qi Zhi also wanted him to look up!

It was dark all around, and several people surrounded him and his desk.

The emperor was standing here with the scholars and attendants of the Ministry of Works, looking at his strategy, brushing his beard and nodding from time to time.

Jia Hui also came over, saluted slightly towards the emperor, and waited for the emperor to nod before looking at Wan Chengxun's strategy.

Wow, something!
