Half an hour later, the already heavily guarded Forbidden Palace became more solemn and solemn.
The Qinglong Gate, which had not been opened since this year, was now completely open. The Imperial Guards were lined up in two rows, guarding both sides of the Qinglong Gate and extending to the Chaohui Hall.
Outside the main hall, there were many warriors standing in front of the hall, and the ministers who came urgently were already lined up in the main hall.
Emperor Liang sat on the dragon chair and stared quietly outside the palace.
The entire forbidden palace is waiting for the arrival of one person.
At this moment, Zhang Xiuye's voice suddenly sounded and spread throughout the entire Chaohui Hall.
"Tianlu Hou Qin Feng came to the palace to see you."
Although the entire hall was still quiet and no one responded, all eyes were dazzled by it.
The man who fought in Beidi and helped Daliang return to the top is finally coming back!
"Xuan Qinfeng comes to see you!"
Following Emperor Liang's order, the voices of reports continued to echo in the Forbidden Palace.
Qin Feng, who was standing in the center of Qinglong Gate, heard the announcement, took a deep breath and walked in.
At this moment, Qin Feng was secretly excited. After such a long time, he finally returned to Daliang Palace again.
Everything in front of me is so familiar. Thinking back on what happened, it seems like it was just last night...
Qin Feng walked towards the main hall step by step with steady steps. The Imperial Guards who should not have looked away focused their attention on Qin Feng.
Almost all eyes moved with Qin Feng's movement.
When Qin Feng stepped on the steps and walked outside the main hall, even the self-proclaimed warriors in front of the palace began to salute Qin Feng.
Standing at the door, Qin Feng could clearly see Emperor Liang and a group of civil and military ministers in the hall.
But for some reason, Qin Feng always felt "estranged" while standing outside the door.
It wasn't until the moment he crossed the threshold and walked into the main hall that he finally felt like he had returned to the royal capital.
Qin Feng walked among the ministers and walked under the holy driver in one breath. The officials who had lowered their heads raised their heads one after another as Qin Feng passed by, staring at Qin Feng's back.
Qin Feng lowered his head, stretched out his hands, gradually closed them inward, and solemnly saluted Emperor Liang.
"I, Qin Feng, have returned from Beidi and paid homage to Your Majesty."
After finishing his words, Qin Feng bowed deeply to Emperor Liang.
From beginning to end, Qin Feng never knelt down to Emperor Liang. If it had been left in the past, some officials might have thought Qin Feng was too arrogant.
But now, no one feels that Qin Feng's move is inappropriate at all.
After all, Qin Feng has proven his absolute loyalty to Daliang with his actions.
Emperor Liang couldn't hide his excitement. He stared at Qin Feng. It wasn't until Zhang Xiuye reminded him that Emperor Liang recovered from the surprise.
"Qin Aiqing, there is no need to be polite."
This was the first time that Emperor Liang called Qin Feng, Qin Aiqing.
In Emperor Liang's heart, Qin Feng had become the most indispensable minister in the entire Liang Dynasty.
After receiving Emperor Liang's permission, Qin Feng slowly stood up. Although the emperor and his ministers were different in the main hall, when Qin Feng and Emperor Liang made eye contact, there was still a subtle change that was different from the emperor and his ministers.
Emperor Liang looked at Qin Feng as if he were his own child.
After all, Qin Feng grew up under the eyes of Emperor Liang, from the initial surprise to the subsequent suspicion and final acceptance.
It's like watching your own juniors transform from cute and ignorant, to rebellious, and finally mature.
Even Emperor Liang was secretly proud that Qin Feng could achieve what he has today.
However, in front of the civil and military ministers, Emperor Liang, as a saint, still needed to hide his emotions.
He whispered: "Qin Aiqing..."
Emperor Liang himself felt extremely awkward about this title. After much hesitation, he changed the title back and addressed Qin Feng by his first name.
"Qin Feng, Princess Mingyue and others have arrived in Beijing in advance, why have you been delayed on the road for so long?"
Facing Emperor Liang's inquiry, Qin Feng said straightforwardly: "Your Majesty, on the way back to Beijing, I first went to Yuping County, and then stayed in Ming County for a while."
"The wealthy clan in the southern region is determined to commit crimes and hires thieves to cause chaos in Yuping County."
"I took care of myself and destroyed some bandits."
Qin Feng answered easily and did not mention the proposal to directly depose the prefect.
Even if the prefect is deposed, it will be of great significance in suppressing the wealthy families and will help the healthy development within Daliang.
But it was a bit inappropriate for him to ask Emperor Liang to depose ministers just after he returned to Kyoto.
This must be done, but not now.
This was exactly what Emperor Liang was most worried about!
After all, Emperor Liang already knew what happened in Yuping County and Ming County long before Qin Feng returned to Beijing. He was afraid that because of Qin Feng's character, he would directly bring up the matter of the Wang Prefect.
This is tantamount to giving Emperor Liang a direct blow and putting him on the fire.
Facts have proved that Emperor Liang's worries were unnecessary.
Regarding the matter in Yuping County, Emperor Liang did not ask any more questions. After all, Qin Feng could make the final decision in this matter.
"I already know everything about what happened in Beidi. Since you have brought the Queen of Beidi back to the territory, I will naturally perform the courtesy of a host."
"It's just Queen Beidi. After all, she has a high position. What should I do if something goes wrong?"
"As for protecting Queen Beidi, if you need anything, just mention it to me."
Emperor Liang's words seemed to be concerned, but in fact he was asking Qin Feng how Daliang and Beidi should get along with each other next.
As Beidi changes dynasties, the relationship between Daliang and Beidi will naturally undergo subtle changes.
However, there are deep grievances between the two countries, and it is impossible to turn hostility into friendship in the short term.
However, the Queen of Beidi is the fourth young lady of the Qin family, and she is also Qin Feng’s soon-to-be wife. If there is any friction between Daliang and Beidi.
Qin Feng's position becomes crucial.
The northern border and Sangzhou controlled by Qin Feng seem to be buffer zones, but in fact they are sharp swords hanging between Daliang and Beidi.
Whether Qin Feng leans towards Daliang or Beidi, it will cause devastating damage to another country.
Although there are officials who privately advise Emperor Liang, they should do everything possible to take power away from Qin Feng, especially regarding control of the northern border.
But these suggestions, without exception, were all rejected by Emperor Liang.
The reason is very simple. The Northern Territory has completely escaped the control of Emperor Liang. Not to mention that it is impossible to seize power. Even if it is captured, what is the use?
Sangzhou will not obey Emperor Liang’s orders!
In Sangzhou and the north, under the operation of Qin Feng, we have already been among you, and you are among us.
It is precisely because of this that no one except Qin Feng can reach in.
