Although it was the birthday of Princess Zhongshun, the Pardon Master did not come to the palace to congratulate her in person.
We originally planned to have lunch at the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, but before noon, we were pulled into a carriage by the emperor in a white dragon fish suit, and we took a leisurely journey to Shiyongfang.
"Father, forgive me..."
"Greetings to Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty, Dad..." (Biya)
"Emperor…Emperor…Emperor…"
When Jia She got off the carriage, he saw the fourth prince Liu Hong, the prince of Zhongshun, Liu Chong, his son Jia Cong, and Xue Pan, who was about to kneel down after a moment of confusion.
Plop~
Xue Pan finally realized how expensive the nobleman that the little fat man brought him to meet was. He never thought that one day he would meet the True Dragon of Daxia and His Majesty the Emperor!
Boom, boom, boom!
Xue Pan's kneeling was extremely sincere. The three bangs made Jia Cong and others' teeth ache, and the blue bricks on the ground were almost knocked out of holes.
"Xue Pan, a humble citizen, pays homage to the emperor. I hope that my emperor will become a man of martial virtue and rule the country for eternity... wuwuwuwu..."
Jia Cong covered Xue Pan's mouth. He had told this guy a few paragraphs about Swordsman in Jiangnan, but he actually used them in this place...
He bared his teeth and said with a smile: "Well, this guy hasn't read a few books and can't speak. Please forgive me!"
The corners of the emperor's mouth twitched and he said contemptuously: "You seem to have read a few books, and you can't even understand a sentence..."
Ga?
Jia Cong felt like he had been stabbed in the heart, and he almost cried while hugging his father's thigh.
Swearing doesn't expose the shortcomings!
"The royal merchant Xue family, stupid overlord Xue Pan? Raise your head!"
Liu Heng was too lazy to pay attention to the aggrieved little fat man, looked at Xue Pan whose teeth were chattering, pursed his lips and said, "I am an honest man, go to the army."
Then he told the fourth prince Liu Hong: "Let him go to the East Palace and start guarding the gate."
Gatekeeper? I, the dignified uncle of the Xue family, am going to be a stinky soldier guarding the gate?
Even though it was the emperor who gave the order, Xue Pan still had a look of reluctance on his face. The immature prince Liu Hong could see it all, and thought to himself, this son has a true temperament, and his father really has a sharp eye.
Such a person is perfect for training into a loyal guard!
Xue Pan was squirming, neither willing nor daring to resist, and his whole body was twisted.
Or was it Jia Cong who raised his forehead and reminded him: "Brother Xue, the divine grace has come from heaven, why don't you accept the order and thank me?"
"But... let me guard the door, this..."
Xue Pan muttered something in a low voice, but Master Pardon couldn't bear it anymore and slapped Xue Pan on the head.
"Hurry up and thank me, be careful I slap you!"
The intimidating power of Master Pardon was still very strong. Xue Da’s head, which was still twisted just now, immediately hit the ground with a bang, and he shouted with a tearful voice: "Young people... I... I will thank your majesty for your kindness!"
"That's right. You're such a bastard. Your father is such a smart man, but why did he give birth to a stupid son like you? He can't even tell a good boy from a good boy!"
Jia She scolded Xue Pan first, then bowed down and said kind words on Xue Pan's behalf: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry, this fool has not been taught by his father since he was a child, and his mother only has this one son. She is usually spoiled, and... He has a straightforward temperament. I will teach him strictly when I return, so that the Xue family cannot even have a person who can support them."
"Okay, I'm not unclear..."
Liu Heng walked with his hands behind his back and stepped into the gate of Prince Zhongshun's palace first. Jia She quickly followed, and Jia Cong struggled to pull up Xue Pan, whose legs were weak.
Liu Hong stepped forward and patted Xue Pan on the shoulder, and said gently: "Brother Xue, from now on we are going to stir the pot in the same pot, so it's time to get close to each other. Let's go in and have a drink!"
He is worthy of being the heir trained by the Second Saint himself. Apart from anything else, he is very good at winning people's hearts.
A simple sentence made Xue Pan blush with emotion: Grandpa Tian, His Royal Highness wants to get close to me!
Not long after, a few people came to Liu Chong's small yard arm in arm and met with the courtyard they had built earlier.
The small group in the East Palace sat around a table and mingled with each other.
Not even a strange bird could fly into the study courtyard of Prince Zhongshun's mansion. There were only three people sitting in the study.
Liu Heng looked worriedly at the livid-faced Old Thirteen Liu Ke, and asked bluntly: "Thirteen, have you been found out?"
"Fourth brother, I have compared the prescriptions, symptoms, and sources given by the Xue family. It is most likely that they are the mysterious monks and Taoists. Moreover, Chong'er and Jia Cong have a rough guess that they should be with the Japanese in Daxia. It’s related to the monk.”
Liu Ke carefully explained the general situation that Liu Chong, Xue Pan, and Jia Cong had put together, and the emperor immediately became cold.
Cao Jiugong had spent a lot of effort earlier to find out that the mysterious monk and Taoist duo were related to the White Lotus Sect, and now they were involved in the Japanese country...
Bang!
"It's really a nest of snakes and rats. The Japanese pirates caused trouble in the capital last year, and they colluded with evil sects such as the White Lotus Sect and the Guangming Sect. Enhou..."
Jia She clasped his fists and said, "I'm here!"
"Give me a good look at the soldiers and horses in the Beijing camp. Last winter, these old soldiers couldn't even defeat the grass bandits. What a fucking disgrace!"
Liu Heng was so angry at being slapped in the face one after another that he made up his mind to conduct a thorough rectification in the Twelve Guards of the Beijing Camp.
The emperor was so angry that he cursed his mother, which showed that his dissatisfaction with the current situation of the capital camp had reached the extreme.
Jia She hurriedly reported the results of his efforts during this period, such as breaking up the manpower deployed by Liu Wei, Wang Ziteng, Shui Rong and others in the Beijing camp, eliminating the old and weak to replenish the young and strong, and suppressing bandits and training, etc.
In fact, these things were reported to the Long Imperial Guards and the supervisors in the army, but when Jia She, a military expert, told them, it became even more obvious that the Beijing camp was very different today.
Liu Ke was a little jealous of Jia She. In fact, he was also a good military man. It was a pity that in order to avoid the fight among the princes for the heir, he could only be a dandy prince and waste his life...
Looking at Jia She who was once said to be ruined, after the ups and downs, he has returned to the vigorous and vigorous Jia She of the Rongguo. He can imagine Jia She's exuberance standing on a high platform wearing a silver armor and a silver helmet. Heroic posture...
Damn it, why did I give up so easily on learning martial arts from Xian Rongguo back then?
I really want to be accompanied by the world of mortals, I really want to gallop on the grassland...
After listening to Jia She's report, the emperor sighed with relief. But when I think about the collusion between the Japanese and the evil cult, I feel sick in my heart.
Anti-thief cults such as the White Lotus Sect and the Holy Fire Light Sect would jump out and disgust people whenever they had the opportunity, and the court was still unable to eradicate them...
snort!
The more he thought about it, the more disgusted he became, so the emperor angrily threw the matter to Prince Xiaoyao, who was even jealous of him.
Just listen to Liu Heng say: "Thirteen, you should keep an eye on this mysterious monk matter personally. I will inform Cao Jiugong and ask him to do his best to cooperate with you..."
There was no response for a long time. Liu Heng took a look and said, "Okay, let's get down to business. You are still in a daze!"
I don’t even have time to go to the harem and have fun, and you, my younger brother, don’t even think about being idle!
"Thirteen, thirteen, old thirteen!".z.br>
Bang Bang...
The emperor frowned and knocked on the table several times, finally bringing Prince Zhongshun, who was dreaming of galloping horses, back to reality.
"Fourth brother, what's wrong?"
The emperor glanced at him and said coldly: "I see that you have been very leisurely recently. Since the Japanese temple is related to this matter, you should take people to Shandong to investigate!"
Emperor Bailongyufu came to Prince Chungshun to congratulate Princess Cui on her birthday, and the news quickly spread in the palace.
The relatives, nobles, civil and military ministers who came to the palace were all glad that they came at the right time today. During the luncheon, there was only one table in the main hall, with the emperor at the top of the table, and those at the lowest table were all high-ranking earls or high-ranking court ministers.
Xue Pan followed the fourth prince Liu Hong and sat at the same table with Jia Cong and other newly appointed East Palace ministers. With the emperor's personal instructions, no one sitting there looked down on him stupidly.
Even Wang Ren, who had always looked down on Xue Pan, could only sit in the distance, staring at the table in front of him with jealous eyes, wishing he could replace him with his own body.
Xue Pan received divine grace
, the news soon spread to the inner courtyard. If they hadn't been in the palace at this moment, Mrs. Xue and Baochai would have burst into tears with excitement.
It's not easy. The two of them were worried about the decline of the Xue family since Xue's father passed away. Mrs. Xue even listened to her brother Wang Ziteng's suggestion and planned to send Baochai to the palace for a small selection, hoping to take a chance on the almost impossible situation. Opportunity.
Unexpectedly, due to a strange combination of circumstances, Xue Pan's straightforward and straightforward temperament actually caught the eye of the emperor and became one of the future prince's team members.
Even if he just got an oral order now, let him go to the East Palace to guard the gate.
"He's just a little gatekeeper, there's nothing to be happy about!"
Just as the girls from Ning Rongjia's family were congratulating each other, someone at the dinner table said something contemptuously.
Although Baochai was angry, she was still worried that all the daughters sitting here were the daughters of officials, so she calmly replied: "People often say that learning martial arts will bring you wealth to the emperor's family. If my brother has the opportunity to serve the imperial court, How can you not be happy to be loyal to His Majesty?"
"Then does your brother have literary talent? Does he have martial arts? I have heard that your brother is known as the stupid overlord. He made people angry in Jinling and almost killed people. Your family couldn't stay in Jinling anymore, so you came here. Capital. Is such a person qualified to say that he will serve the imperial court and be loyal to His Majesty?"
Daiyu had already recognized the speaker, Qi Yifang, the daughter of Qi Daiqing, the right minister of the Ministry of War.
If Baoyu's news is correct, someone proposed marriage to Prince Zhongshun Prince Liu Chong early last year, and it was this girl from the Qi family.
It's a pity that King Zhongshun looked down on Qi Daiqing's softness and ignored him at all.
Today, Princess Cui held Baochai for a while and even put her own bracelet on Baochai's wrist.
This made Qi Yifang, whose heart was attached to Liu Chong, very jealous. The elders were not here at this time. How could she bear it when she heard that Xue Baochai's brother had received the divine grace oracle?
"It's really novel. How about the Xue family brothers? They are better than Master Qi, right?"
Daiyu was the one who followed Jia Cong to read the newspapers and secret files of the imperial court. Seeing that Baochai was unable to respond, she immediately transformed into Lin Daodun and said the cruelest words in the softest and softest voice.
"Did I know that when Mrs. Qi was in the Tatar Khan tent, she was intimidated by the Oara envoys and knelt at the feet of the Tatars and Oara people, crying and begging for mercy? Only then did she save her life. If Mrs. Qi hadn't been born in a lawful family, In the Duke's Mansion, if the imperial court doesn't kill such weaklings who have disgraced the whole country, they are already merciful beyond the law. How can they sit in the position of the right minister of the Ministry of War!"
Daiyu was so happy that she screamed, and the more she was criticized, the more comfortable she became. She glanced around the Yingying Yanyan who were originally supportive, turned her nose up and let out a proud snort and said: "Brother Xue family is indeed incompetent in literature and martial arts now, but he Last year, I killed a bandit with my own hands and followed my uncle to defeat the bandit army. Why would Your Majesty bestow favors on him? It’s because he has a straightforward temperament and knows what loyalty is. At least, he will not kneel at the feet of the prairie barbarians like Minister Qi did!"
