Liang Xiao was stunned.
Duan Yunyi pretended to be calm and stared at Liang Xiao, but his heart was more nervous than ever before.
"How lucky I am." Liang Xiao sighed.
"Actually, I am so lucky..." Duan Yunyi said bitterly.
Liang Xiao thought for a while, nodded and said: "Okay! Your Majesty will definitely create a peaceful and prosperous age."
"I'm looking forward to it." Duan Yunyi responded in a rare soft voice.
Liang Xiao's implication was that he fully supported her.
After Liang Xiao left, Duan Yunyi went all the way to the West Palace Villa and found Duan Yunxiu.
"Sister, what are you doing? You didn't come to the study room today..."
Duan Yunyi saw Duan Yunxiu doing embroidery from a distance, and became curious and took a closer look.
Duan Yunxiu blushed and said: "Sister, I am practicing embroidery. I want to make a dress for Brother Xiao with my own hands, and then prepare a dress for our future children..."
"That's great, he will definitely be very happy..." Duan Yunyi nodded silently, with a bit of envy in his gentle eyes.
Duan Yunxiu glanced at her secretly and said coldly: "My sister has suffered too many grievances all this time. Why don't we listen to the prime minister and let Brother Xiao become the Emperor of Zhou? Let's marry him together?"
"ah??"
The unexpected words made Duan Yunyi confused for a moment.
"No, no, no, he is your man, the future prince-in-law! I have said it several times. You are not allowed to mention it again in the future, and you must never mention it to him. My sister will really be angry..."
Duan Yunxiu saw her reaction in his eyes and nodded obediently: "Okay~"
What her sister meant by being "angry" was just grabbing her and tickling her until she begged for mercy.
In the prime minister's house, Zhuge Hui and Liang Xiao were talking about the general situation of the world and felt comfortable.
The young man in front of him is not as good as a weak man. He has a calm mind and is neither arrogant nor impetuous.
The future of Dazhou is finally no longer gloomy.
Zhuge Hui finally made it clear and asked: "Liang Xiao, actually I and your majesty have already guessed that the person who adopted you is the Great Zhou Martial Saint, but your majesty just didn't reveal it."
Liang Xiao nodded silently.
"Liang Xiao, in fact, Your Majesty only knows that Wu Sheng is still alive, but he doesn't know Shizu's life experience yet. Even Shizu didn't know until he became an adult that he was actually Wu Sheng's only son, and he was adopted to Gaozu to replace Gaozu's only son who died in infancy. Your grandfather and Wu Sheng are brothers and sisters with Gaozu. Most of this country was built by you two of the Liang family. Gaozu does not regret his decision."
"But Wu Sheng once broke an arrow and swore to be loyal to the great ancestor. The emperor is still named Duan, and this world can only belong to the Duan family. Moreover, as the ancestor grew up, Wu Sheng and Lanling Hou found that he became more and more like his childhood. Wu Sheng. When Shizu grows up, this matter cannot be hidden from the ministers of the family, and it may also affect Queen Chen's reputation. Therefore, Wu Sheng chooses to fake his death, turn light into darkness, and has been supporting Zhou behind the scenes."
The more Liang Xiao listened, the more confused he became, and said curiously: "No wonder my master didn't tell me the life experience of Shizu..."
Zhuge Hui sighed: "Then he must not have told you that he and your grandfather are actually descendants of the previous royal family?"
Liang Xiao's expression changed: "Seriously??"
Zhuge Hui said solemnly: "I have seen the genealogy of your family that has been preserved from the Wu Dynasty. It is absolutely correct! The weapon used by Wu Sheng is a Fangtian painted halberd with a special structure. The original owner of this halberd, He is the Emperor Wu of the Wu Dynasty who shook the ancient times and brought light to the present."
Liang Xiao was thoughtful.
Is there really such a weapon in this world that can be passed down for hundreds of years and can cut iron like clay?
"Therefore, the life story of Emperor Gaozu cannot be made public to the world no matter what. Otherwise, it would be equivalent to the restoration of the Wu Dynasty. The soldiers who fought with Emperor Gaozu at that time were all to resist the tyranny of the Wu Dynasty. Most of them could not accept this. For example, The Guanlong nobles back then. If the country was in turmoil, how could those aristocratic families miss this great opportunity?"
"Fortunately, when Shizu became an adult, he was only slightly similar to Wu Sheng, far from being exactly the same. Even if those ministers were confused, Wu Sheng had been dead for many years and there was no evidence of his death. The matter was finally safe. Your Majesty and Her Royal Highness the Princess have both political integrity and talent. , we are related to each other, I believe you will not let them down, let alone let them be wronged."
Liang Xiao understood and was deeply moved.
No wonder the old man repeatedly told himself that as long as Nangong Ning was not virtuous in the slightest, and Zhenyuan Houfu showed any disrespect to him, he would break off the engagement decisively.
I'm afraid that the old man hopes that he will quickly withdraw from the marriage at the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.
It’s not that the whole family refuses to enter the same house, the old man is just like me, he is really shameless...
The old prime minister was so worried about Da Zhou that he could no longer let him worry.
After Liang Xiao figured it out, he vowed: "Prime Minister, just rest assured that the Great Zhou Dynasty will only become stronger and stronger in the future. No one wants to let them be wronged!"
"including you?"
"including me!"
"Any grievances?"
"any!"
"A gentleman's word?"
"It's hard to chase a horse!"
Zhuge Hui was very pleased and discussed the details of the design with Liang Xiao.
After Liang Xiao left, Zhuge Hui handed the drawings to Captain Xuanwei in the Prime Minister's Palace and asked him to escort Zhuge Cheng to arrange the production, and then he went to the palace to face the saint.
It was rare for Zhuge Hui to leave and return. Duan Yunyi, who was playing with his sister in the West Palace Villa, received the notice from Xuanwei and quickly returned to the imperial study.
In the Imperial Study Room, after Zhuge Hui submitted his memorial, he solemnly proposed: "The future of the Great Zhou Dynasty will be in the hands of Your Majesty and Liang Xiao. I am willing to guarantee it with my whole family. Please keep your Majesty's full trust in this son in the future."
After Duan Yunyi read it, he solemnly nodded: "I have promised to recruit Liang Aiqing as the prince-in-law of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I should trust and support you!"
Zhuge Hui said: "What I mean is that your majesty should trust him just like you would the future emperor of Zhou Dynasty."
"Grandpa Prime Minister..." Duan Yunyi's eyes were filled with resentment.
Zhuge Hui fell into silence.
"Any measure that benefits the country and the people, I absolutely trust him!" Duan Yunyi said with a blushing face.
"My emperor is wise!"
After Zhuge Hui left, Duan Yunyi looked at the memorial and sighed in his heart.
Since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, this old prime minister proposed to the emperor for the first time that a minister should be allowed to recruit an army.
Before that, only Zhuge Hui himself had this honor, and three generations of emperors took the initiative to equip him with palace guards.
"My Emperor's Holy Edict: Lanling Marquis Mansion has been loyal to the martyrs for generations. Lanling Marquis Liang Xiao inherited his father's will and authorized him to recruit warriors and form the Liang Family Army, with a maximum limit of 10,000 people. Lanling Marquis has full command and dispatch, and the Liang Family Army garrisoned in the capital has a maximum limit of 2,000 people. !”
The announcement spread and the whole city was shocked!
Nangong Lei, Minister of the Ministry of War, huddled at home, as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
The Ministry of War suddenly received an imperial edict from Duan Yunyi, and with the support of Zhuge Hui, he, the Minister of War, who was facing replacement at any time, did not dare to object. Now he can only pray that the Ministry of Husbandry and the Ministry of Rites can take the lead in stopping it.
"How unreasonable! Shouldn't this matter be discussed with the officials at the court meeting first? You are a fool! You are a fool!"
Tuoba Lie, Duanmujie and others were furious at home and went to the palace to meet the saint.
Gongsun Yue was checking the financial reports at the Chamber of Commerce. When he learned the news, he was shocked and asked Gongsun Ling urgently: "Allow him to recruit troops? Who provided the funds? Liang Xiao himself?"
Gongsun Lingqian smiled and said: "The state treasury provides funds..."
Gongsun Yue felt that the world was spinning in front of him.
