"Master Zeng, this is a fact. The emperor has already sealed Su Qing and the others, and the six ministers have also been sealed back by the emperor. It's just that our position is still a bit awkward."
This official was the one who first submitted the letter this morning, and was also a close confidant of Zeng Xiangguo. According to Zeng Xiangguo's plan, these two ministers had been beheaded by the emperor, and he was the next prime minister.
As a result, Su Qing not only survived, but also became the Minister of Household Affairs. You must know that there was no minister in the six ministers in the past. The six ministers at that time were all killed or exiled by Zeng Xiangguo for various reasons.
Zeng Xiangguo's move was originally just to further control the six ministries, and then take the political affairs of Liang Dynasty into his own hands, but now it is easier for him.
"Haha, you are clearly depriving me of my power. I originally planned to make you a fatuous king, but now that you have brought it to your doorstep, don't blame me."
"It's all gone. Don't do anything for a while. Just take what you should take. Do you understand?" Zeng Xiangguo glanced at the officials with his eyes like a knife.
"We have done many things for you." The officials expressed their loyalty one after another, and Zeng Xiangguo waved his hand to ask them to leave.
Zeng Xiangguo did what he said, and not long after, several pigeons flew from the Prime Minister's Mansion to various places in Daliang. At this time, he was sitting in the royal library reviewing memorials.
"Yun Chang, what happened to these water thieves?" Chen Nan held a memorial in his hand and frowned deeply. There is no Liang Dynasty in the history books of China.
He originally wondered if he had traveled through time, but when he saw the characters "Japanese Country" clearly, he frowned slightly. In this parallel universe, there were actually little devils?
"Your Majesty, the Japanese invaded. There is an island east of our Daliang called the Japanese. They are famous for their cunning."
"At the beginning of the founding of our country in Daliang, the Japanese often came to our southeast coast to rob. Later, Taizu unified Daliang and sent troops to attack. On that day, he thought he was no match for Daliang, so he surrendered to our Daliang. In recent years, our Daliang sea power has been weak, and this Japanese country has not only failed If they pay tribute again, they will start looting on my southeastern coast."
"It's really endless!"
"What do you mean?"
"Uh, it's okay, Mr. Yun, is there anyone in Liang who is proficient in shipbuilding?"
"Your Majesty, the former Great Sikong Zhao She was good at casting warships." Mr. Yun lowered his head and said.
"Where are the people?" Chen Nan said with a frown. Before adding this, there was usually no good fruit.
As expected, Mr. Yun showed a trace of embarrassment on his face: "Your Majesty, three years ago, Zhao She was beheaded by you for corruption, and his family was exiled to the south."
"When did I give such an order?" Chen Nan was surprised. There was no such thing in the memory of the previous master.
"Your Majesty, when you first came to the throne, you had great trust in Mr. Zeng. You once ordered Mr. Zeng to investigate corrupt officials in the court. At that time, five of the six ministers were beheaded for corruption."
"Is there another person?" Chen Nan asked doubtfully that someone who could escape from Zeng Xiangguo must have some ability.
"Your Majesty, the previous Minister of Household Affairs is now Zeng Xiangguo."
"Okay, I understand. Now, except for Zhao She, there is no good craftsman in the entire Liang Kingdom."
"Your Majesty, I have heard that Zhao She's son, Zhao Heng, has been obsessed with shipbuilding since he was a child. He was able to independently build a warship at the age of five or six. Zhao She often used it to show off."
"That's good, let Zhao Heng come to see me as quickly as possible."
After Mr. Yun left, he started his work again.
This was the first time since his rebirth that he saw memorials. In the past, they were all corrected by Zeng Xiangguo, but later they were all read by him personally.
One memorial after another was reviewed by him one by one. He would highlight any important points with a red pen, and throw other insignificant matters aside directly.
The memorials sent from all over Daliang can roughly reflect the actual situation in Daliang today.
He looked up and saw that the sky outside was already pitch black.
"what time is it?"
"Your Majesty, it's already the third watch."
"Let's go back to Qianqing Palace." After saying that, Chen Nan left the Imperial Study Room. At ten o'clock in the morning, if this happened before, it would have been a nightlife.
However, there was nothing interesting in the place, and it was already midnight. He originally planned to go to see Concubine Lan, but Concubine Lan probably went to bed long ago.
Chen Nan took the dragon chariot back to the palace. As soon as he stepped into the palace, he saw a beautiful figure standing in the courtyard.
It was already early spring, and the night was cold. The man didn't have many clothes on him. He shivered in the courtyard, and Chen Nan recognized him at a glance.
"Ruyu, you've been here for so long, why are you still here?"
"I've met the emperor." Concubine Lan was held in his arms, turned over happily, and snuggled into his arms.
"It's cold. Why don't you come to the palace and stay? Maybe these slaves refuse to let you in. I will kill them all now."
"Your Majesty, that's not true. According to the rules of the palace, concubines are not allowed to come in. It has nothing to do with them." Concubine Lan was startled and said hurriedly.
"Well, from now on, Concubine Lan can go wherever she wants, you know?"
"According to the order." The eunuchs and maids said quickly. They didn't want to say another word or their heads would fall off.
"Let's go." Chen Nan didn't care about the group of eunuchs and maids, and directly took Concubine Lan and walked inside.
"Concubine Lan, did you miss me?" Chen Nan hugged Concubine Lan and roamed her body with a pair of big hands.
"Your Majesty, aren't I afraid of your hard work?" Concubine Lan was like a beautiful snake, breaking out of Chen Nan's arms and handing Chen Nan a food box filled with white fungus and lotus paste soup.
"I want Concubine Lan to feed me."
"Okay." Concubine Lan rolled her eyes, but she didn't say anything. She just held the spoon, blew lightly on the bowl of still boiling soup, and sent it to him.
While Chen Nan was eating the soup made by Concubine Lan, she touched her body with both hands. Concubine Lan originally wanted to avoid it, but she was worried that her bowl would spill, so she let him Kneading.
He drank a bowl of fragrant broth. He couldn't control himself anymore and threw the bowl in Lan Fei's hand to the ground.
"Your Majesty, there is urgent news from eight hundred miles away."
Concubine Lan quickly turned around. The urgent letter covering more than 800 kilometers must have something important, and she had to keep it secret.
"Absurd, ridiculous." Chen Nan crushed the bamboo tube in his hand.
"Your Majesty, don't be angry, your body is the most important." Concubine Lan patted his chest, worried that he would do something to harm herself.
"Let Lan Yuan bring the six ministers into the palace!" Concubine Lan quickly stepped forward and pulled up his clothes.
Feeling Lan Fei's tenderness, Chen Nan felt relieved and took Lan Fei's hand, looking very apologetic: "Ruyu, I ignored you."
