Yang Ke stared at Yan Qi, his eyes unblinking.
There is ferocity, vigilance, and endless resentment.
What surprised him was that there were only a dozen people who came back with Yan Qi.
On the left of Yan Qi is Tao Shen, and on the right is the mean and fat Lin Ruoshan.
Behind him, only a few guards remained.
Yan Qi's clothes were covered with dust, his face was pale and his energy was listless.
In addition to the long journey and vicissitudes of life, there is also a sense of disappointment.
The disappointment in his bones can be seen at a glance.
Because Yan Qi, who has always been arrogant, has never behaved so bleakly.
Looking at Taoshen again, the originally majestic military commander looked as miserable as a drowned rat.
He was hunched over, feeling lazy and without energy.
And Lin Ruoshan, that damn fat man, was not only fat, he was also fat and listless, as desolate as a pig about to be slaughtered, looking like he was just waiting to die.
Yang Ke's mood suddenly improved after observing these details.
Could it be that... Yan Qi's trip was very unsatisfactory and he failed to complete his mission?
Yang Ke was suspicious.
However, Yan Qi took the initiative to welcome him and bowed his hand to Yang Ke humbly: "Hello, Prime Minister Yang, um... Thank you for your hard work, Prime Minister Yang..."
"Hahaha, it's not hard, it's not hard, hahaha."
Yang Ke stared at the submissive Yan Qi for a long time, then suddenly burst into laughter.
I was laughing so hard that I couldn't be happier.
Ever since Yan Qi was born in Jinling, he has never been so happy.
All the ministers were confused.
"Prime Minister Yang, what's going on? He looks so happy."
"Just now, he was very angry. How happy is he to see Yan Qi?"
"Prime Minister Yang smiled from the bottom of his heart. Could it be that it has something to do with Yan Qi?"
…
Liao Zhan was also confused and asked in a low voice: "Prime Minister, why are you laughing?"
Yang Ke laughed and shook his head: "You don't understand, even if I tell you, you don't understand. Only I understand the reason, hahaha, I'm so happy."
Liao Zhan was even more confused.
Looking around, I didn't find anything worth being happy about.
Moreover, Tao Shen was very close at hand. Although his expression was sleepy, the murderous aura that came directly from him when his eyes met accidentally was still strong.
This feeling made Liao Zhan very uncomfortable.
exist.
He took a step back diagonally and stood behind Yang Ke, fearing that Tao Shen would punch him in the head.
Yan Qi cupped her hands and looked at Yang Ke, smiling very cautiously, with a hint of flattery: "Your Excellency, the weather is cold, come and greet me, let me...hehe...let me be flattered...go back, go back quickly Bar."
After saying this, avoid Yang Ke and enter the city.
Yang Ke saw Yan Qi's humble behavior and listened to Yan Qi's words, which further confirmed his suspicion.
Yan Qi has always been unruly in his behavior and has never taken me, the Prime Minister, seriously.
Today, when he saw me, he looked very humble.
What this means is self-evident.
Yang Ke's mood was like a sunny day, not to mention how comfortable he was, and he smiled from the bottom of his heart: "Hahaha, Mr. Yan, you are on a mission to Korea, the journey is long and dusty, this is the real hardship, the truth is But what’s so hard about standing in the cold wind and waiting for you for three days? Compared with your hard work, what’s nothing? Hahaha.”
Yan Qi echoed in a low voice: "What the Prime Minister said is absolutely true... I would like to thank the Prime Minister for your concern in advance. I have something else to do, so I will take the first step."
"Master Yan, what's the hurry?"
Yang Ke stopped Yan Qi, who was dodging, and showed an expression of admiration: "Master Yan, as the special envoy of Dahua appointed by the emperor, went to Korea as an envoy, what can you gain?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Qi was stunned for a moment, and then responded in a low voice: "Of course there will be gains."
Yang Ke asked again: "What have you gained?"
"this……"
Yan Qi hesitated: "The harvest...the harvest is a lot, a lot."
Yang Ke smiled more and more wildly: "Hahaha, of course I have gained a lot! Mr. Yan has outstanding abilities and talents. He is a rare capable official in Dahua. Moreover, Mr. Yan has won the trust of the emperor. This time he went to Korea as an envoy. He is assisted by Tao Shen and Lin Ruoshan, Tao Shen is brave and unparalleled in the world, Lin Ruoshan pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger, and is cunning and wise."
"If the three of you work together, no matter what you do, won't it be easy for you to do it? My lords, do you think what I am saying is right?"
All the ministers hurriedly agreed.
"What the Prime Minister said makes sense."
"The Prime Minister's evaluation is very pertinent."
…
Yang Ke waved his hand.
Everyone shut up.
Yang Kerao
Staring at Yan Qi with interest: "Now, please tell me, Mr. Yan, what did you accomplish during your mission to Korea?"
Yan Qi sighed: "That..."
Yang Ke became more energetic: "Master Yan, when you left, you issued a military order and put down your bold words. Not only did you want Goryeo to surrender, but you also stationed troops in Goryeo. Presumably Master Yan has already done these two things. ?"
Yan Qi looked embarrassed: "This... I can't go into details. I can't go into details."
Yan Qi laughed loudly: "Is it inconvenient to elaborate? All the ministers are here, and I am the prime minister. Isn't it normal for you to report your work to me?"
Yan Qi hesitated for a while, then reluctantly said: "In three days, when I go to the pilgrimage, I will naturally make it clear. For now, let's keep it a secret..."
Yang Ke was arrogant: "You still want to keep it a secret? Mr. Yan, you are too unhappy. Just tell me the good news and let me and the ministers be happy in advance. Why not? Tell me, tell me quickly."
Yan Qi shook his head, his expression very reserved: "You can't say it, you can't say it."
Yang Ke smiled evilly: "I would like to first congratulate Mr. Yan on his promotion to deputy prime minister."
Yan Qi's face turned pale with fright, and she hurriedly retreated, looking very ashamed: "I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it, but it will hurt me, it will hurt me."
Yang Ke tried again and again and was convinced that Yan Qi's trip was a mess.
This kid has always been arrogant. If he hadn't screwed up, how could he be so low-profile.
In the past, every time he saw me, he would hold his head high, his chest high, and he would be arrogant. He would sneer at me and claim to be romantic, and he would be crazy to the point of madness.
Now, there is no other reason for Yan Qi to be so honest except that he is not doing things well.
Especially when Yan Qi congratulated him on his promotion to deputy prime minister, Yan Qi's frightened look made Yang Ke even more sure of this matter.
That is, Yan Qi went to Korea as an envoy and completely failed.
Yan Qi peeked at Yang Ke and took a detour.
Yang Ke caught up again: "Master Yan went to Korea as an envoy. There were 500 people in the Iron Armor Battalion. Why did only a dozen people come back? Where did those people go?"
Yan Qi was dejected and looked very sad.
Yang Ke knew the truth and asked: "Did he die in Goryeo?"
Tao Shen on the side suddenly glared: "What does it have to do with you?"
Yang Ke laughed loudly: "Tao Shen has such a big temper."
Not only was he not angry, but he was laughing.
