After a few days of calm, there was another debate in the court, Yan Ning paid tribute, what kind of etiquette should be used to receive it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Your Majesty, it is his duty to pay tribute to the Marquis of Huaiyuan, and the school has agreed that it is enough to welcome the reward according to the usual practice. ”

The school department is responsible for etiquette and education, Yan Ning went to Beijing alone to play all the way, and the minister of the school department was impeached, so that the old king could downplay it. The old master has always regarded Qinghui as the orthodoxy of the falling phoenix, and regarded the other four countries as remote barbarians, and the grassland was no bigger than the empire, so it was natural for the Marquis of Huaiyuan to pay tribute.

The grassland was initially decided, the family sent people to make friends, and the horse bandits encountered on the road and ran back, all of them knew that they were instructed by Yan Ning, and they were not hurt and angry on the face, and they were naturally angry in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, tens of thousands of casualties in the war of the grassland, the first tribute of the Marquis of Huaiyuan, is not only the courtesy of the courtiers, but also the meaning of the prisoners, if you treat each other with regular courtesy, how to raise the prestige of our army, the old minister thinks that the school is inappropriate, should be greeted with the victory of the army expedition and the court. ”

The prestige of the soldiers in the First World War of the grassland is far and wide, and of course the Ministry of Civil Affairs wants to take this opportunity to show off, who said that the standard battalion is handed over to the civilian management, and it will not be able to cultivate a tiger and wolf army. The Minister of Civil Affairs scolded non-stop in his heart, he was still in the post of Minister of Military Orders during the war, and he was in his position to seek his own government, and today he was forced to come out to make a name for himself as a civilian official, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was tantamount to slapping his mouth in public, and returning to work with a cold old face after the performance.

Qin Guogong couldn't wait to kick his old brother a few times, the class teacher, and the soldiers who participated in the war had already returned to the standard camp and offered prisoners, and the original enemy was now a tribal ally. There are many literati ghosts, and they are clearly taking the opportunity to make the military department ugly, and they are so depressed that they can't think of anything to refute.

"Covenant of the Three Kingdoms: The grassland does not belong to the territory of any country, and the Marquis of Huaiyuan took the initiative to pay tribute, which shows that his heart is towards the empire, and if he welcomes him with a salute of submission from afar, Sunset and Cuihua may rise up again. Before the ink of the covenant is dry, the empire will not be trustworthy. The old minister thought that he should treat each other as the princes of the enemy country came to court. ”

After Hua Guogong returned to class, King Duguxing opened his mouth: "Tens of thousands of casualties on the expedition of the scholars, is it to support the princes of an enemy country, if so, how to show the achievements of the lord of Qinghui, the sons agree with the school department, and treat each other with common courtesy, so that the sunset and Cuihua have nothing to say." ”

"The son thought that what the king said was false. Without waiting for Dugu Ying to come out to refute, Rui Wang Dugu Run directly objected: "It is true that the soldiers of the grassland suffered heavy casualties, but don't forget that the six border cities fought at the same time, and the Qinghui County Lord went on an expedition alone, and introduced the main force of the sunset mercenaries in Xiangyun County into the grassland, which was to fight against the enemy of the three passes with the strength of the Cui Pass, not to mention that there were also Cuihua witch soldiers participating in the battle. The British king insinuated that the county lord of Qinghui had worked hard but had nothing to gain, which made his sons puzzled, and tens of thousands of soldiers were also killed and wounded in the three northern passes, what was the gain on the day of withdrawal? Compared with the battle record of the county lord of Qinghui, it was just like the firefly to Haoyue!"

Chaotic, chaotic, the independent King of the Inspectorate opposed, the British King occupies the side of the Qinghui County Lord, but today the Rui King defends the Qinghui County Lord, and sharply criticizes the British King, what is the relationship between the three of them? In the struggle for the succession to the throne, whether they are fighting separately or there is an alliance between the two parties, the minds of the civil and military generals are chaotic, and the prince and Duguying did not expect such a situation.

"The war on the grassland has already been decided, there is no need to say more! King Rui, Marquis Huaiyuan pays tribute, what kind of etiquette do you think should be used to meet each other?"

King Rui, who has always been low-key, has gradually revealed his talent since the division of the government, so that the old king is happy in his heart, the prince is weak, the king is too sharp, and the king of Rui has won the key to govern, and he has never been ambitious, so he is the best candidate to assist the young master. Today, the old king couldn't think of any motive for a while, so he raised his hand to stop the king who wanted to refute, and warned the two not to forget today's theme.

"Your Majesty, what the three ministers said has their own reasons, and the ministers think that they should take one of them, and treat them with light gifts and heavy rewards. According to the regular courtesy of the school, but to take the courtesy of the princes of the enemy country, the reward should be far heavier than their tribute, declaring that the empire is far away from the intention of appeasement. ”

The Ministry of Military Affairs and the Ministry of Civil Affairs agreed one after another, and the Minister of Education wanted to insist on his own opinion but knew that it would be difficult for the king to adopt it, so he thought about it and gave in.

Since there is no objection from the ministry, they will follow the performance of King Rui, treat it lightly and generously, and the Department of King Rui will receive Marquis Huaiyuan. ”

"The retainer's order. ”

The princes of the enemy country came to the court, how grand the scene was, the military and civilians of Kyoto watched, the king of Rui accompanied all the way, the common people knew who the military machine temple strategy came from, the lord of Qinghui County led the army to win a great victory, and the people who came up with ideas behind the scenes, naturally the prince and the king of Rui were the mainstays, and for a time the name of King Rui Dugurun spread all over Kyoto.

In the court, King Rui easily snatched the errand to greet him, and Dugu Ying returned to the house with a pouting face, which made Huayue and a few people complain, and worked desperately in the grassland, giving him a chance to become famous. Fortunately, with the persuasion of Yan Ning and Mei Lian, the anger finally disappeared in a few days, and after all, King Rui gave a bad breath to Jicuiguan Xuebing in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.

Dugu Ying opened the mansion to learn politics, the old king gave her Cuihua Palace to be the county lord's mansion, covering an area several times larger than the prince's mansion, the palace building landscape, the palace is still inferior to three points, the old king almost caused a mutiny when he built Cuihua Palace, and the extent to which the construction of the construction and labor and the people and the wealth can be imagined.

"I'm going to enjoy it again, I really regard my Cuihua Palace as an imperial garden!"

Dugu Ying handles government affairs in Cuihua Palace during the day, rarely stays overnight at night, runs back to the prince's mansion to accompany her mother, Hua Yue and Mei Lian seem to be the owners of Cuihua Palace, one person is a beautiful palace with a courtyard, Mei Lian rushed back soon after Yan Ning came, and the four of them got together more lively, like four butterflies flying around in Cuihua Palace in their spare time.

The scenery of Cuihua Palace is famous, the princes and magnates of wealthy families in Kyoto, under the pretext of visiting to watch, at first Duguying raised his hand not to hit the smiling person, but also sent someone to accompany the visit, as a result, the county lord's mansion came in an endless stream of visitors, the princess called her to a good reprimand, and when she came back, she ordered that she would not see each other on non-official business, and used the suspicion of forming a party with the minister as an excuse.

Avoiding suspicion can block the princes and magnates, but they can't deal with the concubines and nobles in the palace, according to the seniority, they are all her grandmothers, Gao Jieyuan sent her to accompany herself, come to Duguying depressed once, and enter the palace several times to beg grandpa, don't let them go out of the palace to bother me, the old king agreed with a smile every time, and there was no movement afterwards, and the two imperial concubines made Duguying even more annoyed.

"Eldest sister, you can't block the car for me, saying that you have official business to be busy, and you can find any excuse, saying that you can't do it in Cuihua Palace. ”

"The palace ban is strict, the imperial concubine must ask for a decree before leaving the palace, and she will not be allowed to come in, it is clear that she is resisting the decree, I don't want to send her to death. Do you have official business? You have to deceive people and send people to them. ”

"County Lord, urge that outside, don't pick it up again-" As soon as the eunuch in charge spoke at the door, Duguying glared: "Don't you see me and the palace envoy discussing official business? ”

Before moving into Cuihua Palace, Duguying wanted to drive away the eunuch and leave only the palace maid, and it was the princess's whispering that made her change her mind, stay is to stay, never gave a good face, the steward eunuch saw her angry and hurriedly turned around to leave, the ministers interfered in politics, kill!

"Stop, go get two iron shields, and run faster. ”

scolded the eunuch in charge, Duguying laughed again and again: "Eldest sister, I don't want your help, I suddenly came up with a good idea, hum, I want to see who in the palace dares to bother me again!" After speaking, he climbed onto the table and practiced calligraphy carefully with one stroke, Hua Yue looked at a few words and laughed: "You can figure it out, but it is indeed a good idea." ”

Outside the palace gate, the eunuch palace maid is a large group of people, usually do not wait in front of the door, the county lord of Qinghui will bring people to greet him, today after waiting for a long time Cuihua Palace door did not open, the chief eunuch stepped forward to urge several times, the guard at the door said that he was waiting for the military order, and he had no choice but to go to the sedan chair to reply.

"You go to see the county lord of Qinghui and ask two words, the military order is greater than the holy decree, whether you want to hand over the name to meet her, go, just say that. ”

The queen passed away, and the princess was temporarily in charge of the harem for many years, but she had no choice but to do her best in bed, and the old king never expressed his position, and the dream of the mother of the world was close in front of him and far away in the sky. When he was young, he couldn't charm the king's eyes with his beauty, and when he was old, he had to hope for his son to be the king, and the mother was more expensive than the son, and it was not bad to be the queen mother if he didn't fight for the queen.

Cuihua Palace, Duan Huang Concubine did not think less, but she couldn't even enter the door for decades, and it turned out to become the Qinghui County Lord's Mansion, which was only separated by a wall from the palace. In the past, Duguying's strong smiling face accompanies her, which not only gives Princess Duan a sense of accomplishment in defeating the queen, but also takes the opportunity to show her power to build momentum for the British king.

The chief eunuch in the palace of Emperor Duan, who is the actual chief manager in the palace, sees smiling faces everywhere he goes, if it weren't for the old king's pampering of the county lord of Qinghui, he would have changed his face to the guards guarding the door, and he was instructed by Emperor Duan, and he swayed up the steps.

"In order to ask the lord of Qinghui County at the order of the imperial concubine, open the middle door. ”

Today happened to be the turn of the right guard on duty, Princess Duan sent a message to come to Cuihua Palace, Lei Ming took the guards to arrange a guard in the palace gate, which was stricter than guarding the city in the grassland, seeing that Dugu Ying did not show up for a long time, hiding in the gate and laughing for a long time, the county lord finally couldn't help but lose his temper. The chief eunuch ordered the door to be opened, but the captain of the team guarding the door ignored it, seeing that the two sides were about to get into trouble, Lei Ming had no choice but to go out.

"Chief, don't embarrass the brothers, who dares to open the middle gate without a military order, unless His Majesty is coming. The smile on Lei Ming's face was pretended to be out, and the chief eunuch was angry: "Captain Lei, I went to see the county lord by the order of the imperial concubine, you have to let me enter through the side door, ha, I'm afraid I can't bear the responsibility." ”

"The chief manager has misunderstood, let alone the middle gate, there is no military order, and the brothers will not even dare to let you in the side door! ”

I don't know if it's intentional or too honest, a personal guard really moved out of the gatehouse and a stool, Lei Ming bit his lip to hold back a smile, and the chief eunuch's face turned into the color of pig liver, and he wanted to get angry and looked at the bright knife and gun, and stomped his foot to report to the imperial concubine. The county lord's mansion left and right guards, and the dignitaries and nobles just said: Don't mess with it, there is no good thing, the chief eunuch knows the details of the two, even if there is no Qinghui county lord behind, it is not something he can easily provoke.

Qi ran to the chief eunuch, Lei Ming was worried about how to stop the imperial concubine when he got off the sedan chair, and saw several eunuchs coming out from inside the door with iron shields and erecting them next to the middle door.

"Harem politicians, kill!"

"Ministers interfere in politics, kill!"

The mighty team turned around and left, the lips of the Duan Imperial Concubine were about to bite, these two sentences she was too familiar with, she suffered a big loss for this when she was young, and the queen was merciful when she said it, and she interceded with the king to save her life, although she was in charge of the harem in the future, she never dared to say a word lightly about government affairs, and the ancestors of the Dugu family erected a big iron card in front of the palace gate at the beginning of the country, and these two sentences were engraved on it, and everyone knew about the nobles and civil and military officials.

Although there is only a wall apart, but Cuihua Palace does not belong to the palace, the lord of Qinghui County opened the mansion to learn politics, and avoided it under the pretext of dealing with official business, and then entangled such as provoking the officials and the people to watch, how to explain to the old king when he returned to the palace to lose face, Cuihua Palace, Duan Huang Concubine endured her anger and squeezed out three words from between her teeth.
