Throughout the ages, there are only two kinds of people who do not enter the court, praise and worship, and go to the temple with swords.

One is a person who leans towards the government and the opposition and holds great power, and the other is a person who is extremely trusted and appreciated by the emperor.

Mo Jun is the latter.

"The white-clothed marquis and the general see the emperor!" the master of ceremonies in the hall shouted.

Mo Jun immediately patted his sleeve and knelt on the ground: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Aiqing doesn't have to be polite, please get up quickly. Seeing Mo Jun, Wei Shengzhao's frowning brows finally relaxed, and a kind smile appeared on his face, like a loving elder looking at his child.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Mo Jun saluted and walked slowly to the first place on the right to stand.

Under him, it was Yu Wenlie, the imperial lieutenant.

The official system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the head of the civil officials, the prime minister, the head of the military attaché, the general, these are the two poles; below are the three dukes, the captain, the master, the master, and the official worships the same product.

The post of general is not permanent in wartime, and the post of prime minister has not been held in this position for a long time. Therefore, it is the Three Dukes who are actually in power in the court.

However, among the three dukes, Taifu Sikongquan's actual position has been hollowed out, leaving only the false name of the three dukes on the black gauze hat, and Sikongquan is also sick at home and does not participate in political affairs. Only occasionally can you see him in the inner courtyard of the palace, after all, Taifu was once the emperor's teacher.

At this moment, Yu Wenlie faced the young man on his right, who was less than half his age, his expression was as usual, and he smiled politely.

Mo Jun also nodded at him, which was considered to have been said hello.

There was a sudden silence in the hall, and everyone looked at Mo Jun, as if waiting to see what he would say.

However, it was Wei Shengzhao who broke the calm first, he clicked on the two tables on the table in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Today's court meeting is mainly for two things......

These two sheets, one was submitted by Mo Jun after he pacified the Tianxin Sect, and the other was about the robbery of the prisoners of the Tianxin Sect.

"First, about the general's letter requesting pardon for the Li family, what do you Aiqing think?"

"Li's?" the ministers were puzzled and discussed, could it be ......

"Isn't Your Majesty talking about the traitor Li Qing clan?" Taishi Yang Kai frowned and stood up.

"Exactly. Wei Shengzhao's eyes narrowed.

Seeing this, Yu Wenlie also stood up: "Then Li Qing's soldiers were defeated and surrendered to the enemy, and I lost the face of Da Zhou, Your Majesty just reduced the Li family to slaves at the beginning, and it was already magnanimous, I don't know why I want to pardon them today?"

Since the post of prime minister became vacant, the third prince has become its replacement. In most cases, what the prime minister could decide in the past has become something that needs to be decided by the three princes.

And since Taifu Sikong lost his real power, Yang Kai and Yu Wenlie fought against each other, and the two had many disagreements on weekdays. However, when they heard Li Qing's name today, they rarely condemned it together, so the courtiers couldn't help but put their last eyes on Mo Jun.

After all, this recital was presented by Mo Jun, and he should wait and see about the affairs of the three big figures in the court, and don't interfere for the time being.

"Master Taishi and Master Taifu don't know, this general has to calm the Tianxin Sect, and it must be thanks to Li Qing's son Li Ran secretly helping, otherwise the outcome is unpredictable. ”

Mo Jun took a few steps forward and arched his hand: "If you want to reward meritorious deeds in this battle, Li Ran should take the first credit." He also remembered that he was martyred for the country, which is really heroic, and Li's loyalty can be seen by the sun and the moon, which is also his atonement. ”

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Yu Wenlie raised his eyebrows, interested.

So Mo Jun learned to be like a storyteller, exaggerating and impassionedly describing Li Ran's exploits, and at the end he didn't forget to burst into tears and beat his chest.

"Ahem!" Wei Shengzhao looked at Mo Jun's pompous performance and coughed embarrassedly. At this time, he saw that the ministers were talking about it, and his mouth was full of praise, and he already had the intention of forgiveness in his heart, so he said: "What do you think of Aiqing?"

The minister had no objection. Yu Wenlie arched his hand.

The minister had no objection. "Yang Kai is not willing to be left behind.

Seeing that the two bigwigs had expressed their positions, the rest of the people also echoed: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

Wei Shengzhao nodded, and the matter was decided. In fact, this is not a bad thing for him, but it will help Da Zhou gather popularity and buy people's hearts, and the Li family will also be grateful for it, the best of both worlds.

"Second thing...... Wei Shengzhao's face sank, and a strange light flashed in his eyes: "When the prisoner of Tianxin Sect was escorted back to Beijing, he was kidnapped by someone of unknown origin......

Before the words fell, Mo Jun knelt down with a "poof": "Your Majesty, this matter is a dereliction of duty on the part of the minister, please punish Your Majesty!"

"Huh?"

"What?"

"And that kind of thing?"

The ministers were shocked, and even Yu Wenlie and Yang Kai's old faces, which had always been as steady as Mount Tai and Gujing Bubo, couldn't help but be shocked. Thieves robbed prisoners, robbed the imperial court's prisoners, or robbed them in front of the generals and the Blood Banner Army? Who would have such skills?

"Aiqing doesn't have to be like this, please get up quickly!" Wei Shengzhao held the desk, stretched out a hand, and motioned for Mo Jun to get up. Then he was relieved: "This is intentional or unintentional, not Aiqing's fault." These rivers and lakes are reckless, and they can't change these habits in the end, and it is difficult to become a climate, so the general doesn't have to worry about it. ”

"When the time comes, send someone to paint a portrait of the thief and post a wanted notice. ”

Mo Jun was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether Wei Shengzhao really didn't care, or if he was just saying polite words, but he felt that this matter must not be careless, so he persuaded: "But Your Majesty ......"

Wei Shengzhao waved his hand and signaled not to mention it again.

In their opinion, this kind of thing is just some barbarians acting as heroes of the green forest, and they are just a hero, and it is also harmful to the power of heaven and the country at this time, and it is best to solve it privately.

"I have one thing I want to hear the advice of the general. Wei Shengzhao knocked on the desk, condescending, staring straight at Mo Jun with his eyes and a playful smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, please speak. ”

"What does the general think about the awakening of the Greedy Wolf Star last night?" Wei Shengzhao smiled even more.

Mo Jun suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

When he returned to Beijing yesterday, he refused to be his stand-in because Sikong wanted to kill him, so he had to personally face the grand scene greeted by 10,000 people. And Sikong Wang saw the opportunity, and disappeared like a gust of wind, and the angry Mo Jun's teeth itched.

Mo Junping is low-key, and his home is also an ordinary courtyard, and the neighbors don't know that there is a general living in it, but he is the imperial doctor in the palace. And because Mo Junsheng is handsome and works in the palace, many people have that kind of idea, and often introduce him to their daughter or a relative's little girl, or bring him to their home for dinner, but they are not enthusiastic.

Mo Jun often suffers from this, but it is difficult to refuse.

Last night, because he felt tired, he fell asleep early, and slept very deeply, and even had that dream.

But because of this, he didn't see the scene of the awakening of the greedy wolf star, and only heard the rumors in the streets and alleys on the way to the court in the morning that he knew that such a big event happened last night.

He scolded himself hatefully, why did he sleep so hard last night.

But at this moment, the ministers of the full palace and even the eyes of the eunuchs fell on him, and His Majesty couldn't avoid asking such a question.

He met Wei Shengzhao's gaze with a hard head, and said with a little shame: "The minister slept too dead yesterday, and he didn't see the vision of the greedy wolf, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." ”

There was a burst of snickering around them, and many people began to exchange ears.

Wei Shengzhao didn't expect Mo Jun to answer like this, he raised his eyebrows, a smile froze on his face, and then coughed embarrassedly: "Since the general didn't see it, forget it." ”

Mo Jun suddenly felt embarrassed.

"Your Majesty. Yu Wenlie arched his hand, glanced at Mo Jun with a strange expression, and admonished: "The awakening of the greedy wolf star is a national event, and this person has to guard against it." ”

"Hmm...... I just want to hear the advice of the general. Wei Shengzhao waved his hand and sighed: "This matter has been dealt with by Tianji personally, you Aiqing don't have to worry." ”

"Heavenly Machine?"

Hearing this name, the ministers couldn't say anything more. Since Tianji has already planned to take action in person, no matter how much they worry about it, it is just to add to the chaos, and no longer caring about it is the greatest trust in this old man.

"Since there is nothing to do, I will say one thing. ”

Wei Shengzhao cleared his throat and stood up with his head held high, his eyes flashing with a fine light, and he glanced at the ministers. Then he took a deep breath, like swallowing Lingyun.

"I want to be a prince!"
