"Buzz~~~~~~~~~~!"
A chime sound echoed in Xiyuan Renshou Palace.
In the palace, Yan Song, the first assistant, Xu Jie, the second assistant, Gao Gong, the bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, Yan Shifan, the minister of the Ministry of Industry and many other court officials, knelt three times and kowtowed nine times.
After the ceremony, the discussion will begin.
"His Majesty!"
Yan Shifan came out and spoke first.
"Hu Zongxian, the governor of the northern border and an important minister of the Ming Dynasty, was ambushed and killed beside the official road! This case is sensational. Please investigate it thoroughly and never tolerate it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Song continued to speak, but in the tone of an old father scolding his son.
"Yan Shifan, don't yell or scream in front of the Holy Master."
"Don't you know that Hu Zongxian has just made a breakthrough recently and reached the ninth level of Hedao Realm?"
"Ambush him beside the official road of my Ming Dynasty. How many forces in the world can do this?"
"Besides, Hu Zongxian has commanded troops and guarded the border for many years. God knows how many enemies he has made?"
"A thorough investigation?"
"Easier said than done."
The ministers listened for a long time and secretly said that Yan Song was great and worthy of being the chief minister.
These words seemed to criticize Yan Shifan for being impatient and not considering things thoroughly.
In fact, they pointed the finger directly at the Xu Jie party in the DPRK.
All countries have established forces in the Ming Dynasty to engage in espionage activities.
But in terms of combat power, it is definitely not enough to kill the ninth level of Hedao realm.
What's more, because of the "Three Emperors Alliance", there have been no wars among the countries all year round.
Hu Zongxian had guarded the border for many years, but it was impossible to make enemies outside the Ming Dynasty.
Looking back at the Ming Dynasty, the Qingliu party had absolutely reason to ambush and kill Hu Zongxian.
For example, prevent him from regaining military power.
Just as the officials secretly lamented that Yan Song was so cunning, he put pressure on Xu Jie with just a few words.
In the quiet room, there was another chime sound.
The buzzing sound echoed melodiously, and the officials of the Ming Dynasty immediately fell silent, not even daring to whisper to each other.
Emperor Jiajing used the sound of chimes instead of speaking, which had two advantages.
First, God’s will is always difficult to ask, and ministers need to figure it out carefully. Only by understanding the meaning of the sound of the chime can one be considered to be in tune with the emperor and be a useful minister.
Secondly, Emperor Jiajing never uttered a single word. If the government orders were inappropriate in the future, it would be the fault of the officials, who would have misunderstood the holy will.
However, the sound of the chime is so profound and unpredictable, who among the officials of the Ming Dynasty dares to say that he understands Emperor Jiajing?
The palace was quiet for a moment, and Xu Jie, the second assistant, glanced at Yan Song from the corner of his eye.
He was surprised to find that Yan Song's hateful old face rarely showed a trace of disappointment.
Xu Jie already had some ideas about the meaning of the Qing sound, and observing Yan Song's expression made him more confident in his guess!
"My lords."
"The deceased has passed away, but the affairs of the state cannot be neglected."
"After Hu leaves, who will take his place and lead the army to regain the lost land of Yunzhou?"
Xu Jie suddenly spoke, and all the officials were shocked!
In front of His Majesty and the Chief Assistant, Mr. Xu Ge is trying to forcefully expose the murder case of Hu Zongxian?
Don’t check?
Do not ask?
Major issues to minor ones out?
The Yan Party's most important chess piece in the army died in vain like this?
The ministers looked at the looming figure of Emperor Jiajing behind the gauze curtain in surprise.
They didn't dare to look too much for fear of offending Tianyan.
Then, the eyes of the officials fell on Yan Song, the first assistant.
They all believe that as long as Mr. Yan Ge takes action, he should be able to easily refute Mr. Xu Ge.
The topic of discussion today is still the murder of Hu Zongxian.
However, the officials waited for a long time, but did not see any action from Yan Song.
It's like... he gave up on his own initiative?
The strict party officials present could not help but feel chills in their hearts!
Hu Zongxian was such an important figure that he died in vain like this?
As the leader of the strict party, the chief assistant doesn't even have the ability to avenge his own people? ? ?
Xu Jie was also ecstatic!
not easy!
It’s really not easy!
The Sacred Heart has always favored Yan Song, but today is the time to take care of Qingliu Guan?
In fact, how could Sacred Heart Zhuzhao not know that the Qingliu Party was the biggest suspect in the assassination of Hu Zongxian?
But the deceased is gone!
Emperor Jiajing would never severely punish Xu Jie, one of his most trusted right-hand men, for a dead person!
Xu Jie is not guilty, and neither is Xu Dang or Qingliu official!
Xu Jie quickly figured this out, and he couldn't help but glance at Gao Gong secretly.
Jin Yiwei really couldn't find out the actions of Gao Gong and others?
Perhaps Lu Bing had already told the truth to the emperor.
But who are Gao Gong, Chen Yiqin, and Yin Shidan?
Prince Lecturer.
When the prince ascends the throne in the future, they will become emperor masters!
For fear of Prince Wanli's face, these three people could not move easily.
In the end, Xu Jie, the commander-in-chief who ambushed Hu Zongxian, could not move, nor could the three executive ministers.
As expected, the case can only be left alone.
Xu Jie couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The assassination of Hu Zongxian was the biggest gamble in his official career in recent years.
Fortunately, he won the bet.
A powerful person like Emperor Jiajing would have some scruples in his actions.
However, he must handle the important matter of recovering Yunzhou.
If he can't share His Majesty's worries and adds such a big obstacle to him, given the Ming Emperor's magnanimity, he will be liquidated sooner or later.
"The veteran believes that if one person is sent to lead the army, he will be able to regain the lost land of Yunzhou for our Ming Dynasty."
Xu Jie spoke slowly, attracting everyone's attention.
He stopped talking again, as if waiting for someone to express his position.
After a brief silence, Chief Assistant Yan Song finally said: "If Mr. Xu Ge has any good candidates who can solve your Majesty's problems, just tell them."
Xu Jie sneered in his heart when he heard this!
What a poisonous tongue, what a ruthless intention!
To solve your Majesty's problems?
How conceited and confident was Emperor Jiajing?
Who in the world is qualified to help him solve his problems?
No matter who Xu Jie recommends on this trip, even if he succeeds in conquering Yunzhou City, this person will be hated by Emperor Jiajing.
However, Xu Jie was one step ahead of Yan Song in his calculations.
"Your Majesty."
"I recommend that the prince once again lead the army to conquer Yunzhou."
The ministers were in an uproar after hearing this!
Lian Yansong and others opened their dim old eyes and stared at Xu Jie.
Yan Song couldn't help himself, and uttered a strange and inexplicable word from between his teeth: "Okay..."
But he shut up immediately!
Everyone clearly felt that the chief assistant had something to say.
Are you good at choosing people, good at scheming, so cunning, or just shameless?
Yan Shifan didn't have the patience of his father, so he jumped out immediately.
"Mr. Xu Ge, are you kidding me?"
"The prince was unconscious and was personally escorted by Zhang Juzheng to find the legendary Nanchao for treatment. But you recommend the prince to lead the army?"
"When will the prince wake up? When will he recover? When will he be able to lead the troops to the expedition?"
Yan Shifan asked questions urgently and aggressively.
Xu Jie was still there, looking calm and calm.
In the Ming Dynasty, Xu Jie did not defeat Yan Song for decades.
But facing Yan Shifan, he didn't feel much pressure.
Xu Jie smiled and said, "That's a good question, Mr. Xiaoge. I went to visit the Imperial Master yesterday. He personally told me that Nanchao will be a great opportunity for the prince."
"The prince is the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty. How profound are his blessings? I'm afraid that when the prince comes back, he will be completely new, like a phoenix rising from nirvana. His blessings are immeasurable!"
Xu Jie's words already carry great weight.
He also moved out of the National Master Lan Daoxing, which is even more of a golden sign!
Yan Shifan's face turned pale, and he was about to say something when he heard a chime sound coming from behind the green gauze curtain.
"Buzz~~~~~~~~~~!"
Everyone present listened carefully to the sound of the chime, hoping to interpret its deeper meaning.
However, almost everyone had a look of confusion on their faces.
Only Xu Jieruo had some enlightenment, while Lao Yansong looked sluggish.
"Wei Zhong."
Behind the curtain, the voice of Emperor Jiajing came out.
Yan Song immediately knelt down and said in admiration: "I am here."
The curtain opened, and Emperor Jiajing came out wearing a Taoist robe, with a long beard hanging down on his chest, and long hair hanging behind his back.
"It's cold in winter, please take care of your dragon's body," Yan Song said again.
"Hahaha."
Emperor Jiajing smiled heartily.
"I have an extraordinary body, so why do mortals regard me?"
Yan Song knelt on the ground, like a giant shrimp with a severely bent body.
"I am confused."
"There are billions of creatures in the world who are all mortal, so much so that I have forgotten that Your Majesty is the current True Dragon and the future Emperor of Heaven."
When Emperor Jiajing heard this, he laughed loudly again!
"I am cultivating immortality, and I am definitely not coveting the position of Emperor of Heaven."
"It is for my people, the Ming Dynasty, that everyone can attain enlightenment and become an immortal, and enjoy freedom forever."
As soon as these words came out, the ministers immediately knelt down and saluted again.
"Your Majesty's holy grace and virtues will never be forgotten by the people of the world!"
Emperor Jiajing looked around the ministers with a confident smile on his face.
"Wei Zhong, tell me, what do I mean?"
Yan Song knelt on the ground, his lips almost touching the floor.
He said almost without thinking: "Your Majesty's holy will, I can only make wild guesses. The prince and Yunzhou City have already formed a cause and effect. If it can be resolved personally, it will be very good for the prince's future growth. Therefore, the prince may be allowed to lead Let’s fight again.”
Hearing what Yan Song said, Xu Jie couldn't help but sigh.
Older gingers are more spicy!
If Wanli could successfully regain Yunzhou City, in the hearts of all officials in the Ming Dynasty, he would be the impregnable crown prince and crown prince.
No one dared to mention his past defeats in Yunmeng Mountain and Yunzhou City.
But Yan Song's words were the greatest suppression of the achievement of regaining Yunzhou.
Even if Wanli wins this battle, he will at most be trying to make up for it and wait and see what the consequences will be.
The position of the prince is still shaky.
What will happen to Emperor Jiajing?
Xu Jie raised his head nervously, wanting to risk a look at Emperor Jiajing's face.
But before he raised his eyes, he heard Emperor Jiajing speak.
"The prince deserves more experience."
A simple sentence, but it nailed Wanli's young and impetuous image.
Xu Jiegang thought he had defeated Yan Song, but the victory was reversed immediately. He almost wanted to cry loudly!
Your Majesty, are you getting closer to Yan Song after all?
The meeting finally came to an end.
Three hundred thousand wolf soldiers are stationed at Tongzhou Guards Station, and they must not slack off in training every day.
When Prince Wanli returns, he immediately leads his troops north to Yunzhou.
…
…………
Daci Dynasty.
Fan Li's clone stayed there for many days, and finally waited until a woman came to find him.
The holy master of chess, Bai Jiu.
In the small courtyard where Xiang Ning lives alone, Bai Jiu comes uninvited.
"Elder sister said, you agreed." The woman's expression was unkind.
But even Xiang Ning could see through it at a glance. Under his cold appearance, Bai Jiujiu clearly showed his fear of Fan Li.
Xiang Ning felt that this feeling was very funny.
It turns out that this is what other women look like when they are bullied by traitors?
She subconsciously touched her pretty face. Did she pretend not to be afraid of Fan Li like this before?
"Yes, I promise to accompany you to Nanchao." Fan Li nodded, his expression showing no signs of calming down.
"good!"
Bai Jiu couldn't wait.
"As long as you help me understand the ancient chess game, eldest sister will definitely let Xiang Chongchan take precedence over you!"
Fan Li smiled disapprovingly, and Xiang Ning next to him had an even weirder expression.
The Daci Dynasty is such a bully!
In front of her, the dignified Emperor of Chu, she actually said something about usurping Xiang's country?
Fortunately, Fan Li had informed her about this in advance, otherwise Xiang Ning would have been really angry to death.
"Holy Lord Bai, please wait a moment. Your Majesty and I will explain a few more words."
Bai Jiu frowned when he heard this.
She couldn't understand what kind of majesty Xiang Ning was. He was obviously just a prisoner of Daci's subordinates.
But Bai Jiujiu was afraid of Fan Li. Just because the two were too close, Bai Jiujiu's cultivation level fell from the Mahayana realm to the Hedao realm.
"Okay, I'll wait for you outside, hurry up."
After the woman left, Fan Li had nothing to say to Xiang Ning.
He closed his eyes tightly and called the system in his heart.
"System, come out."
"Ding! Host, I'm here."
"Give me a mission. I need a designated reward."
The system went silent.
After more than ten seconds, there was finally a reaction.
"Designated reward, impossible."
"The host's request violates the basic principles of the traitor system and cannot be satisfied."
The corners of Fan Li's mouth rose.
He knew that the system would use this excuse to reject him.
"System, the reward content I requested is completely in line with the basic principles of the traitor system."
"oh?"
Rarely, the system actually showed curiosity.
"Because what I ask for is to protect Chu Emperor Xiang Ning's absolute safety under any circumstances."
"For example, if one day I send troops to attack the Daci Dynasty, Xiang Ning's personal safety must be guaranteed. He cannot become a tool used by Empress Yaoguang to threaten me, let alone be killed."
The system was silent again, as if it was performing some kind of calculation.
After waiting longer than before, finally, the system answered.
"The host's requirements can be met."
"The basic principle of the treacherous minister system is that the host is a minister, and there must be a suitable emperor."
"Given that Xiang Ning has good overall qualities such as character, ability, potential, wisdom, and affection for the host, he is the best candidate for the emperor. This system can provide personal safety for Xiang Ning."
"The mission is under construction, please wait a moment, host."
Fan Li finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As a treacherous minister, how can he be without a monarch?
This is the most basic and solid theoretical system and the root of the existence of the traitor system.
In this way, I made a request to [The First Traitor System in History], and it succeeded!
After traveling so far, Fan Li, in addition to observing this different world, is also carefully observing and studying the traitor system.
Today is his first attempt.
Rather than passively and randomly releasing tasks and obtaining rewards, Fan Li wanted to take the initiative in the system.
But he didn't notice that the system's description of Xiang Ning's comprehensive qualities seemed a little strange?
"Ding!"
"Mission construction completed."
"Issue mission: Destroy the country."
"Task description: The host must use war to destroy the Daci Dynasty."
"Task reward: Xiang Ning's [immortality] special effects blessing."
"Special effects description: Before the fall of the Daci Dynasty, Xiang Ning cannot be killed or harmed in any way."
"Task rewards are released in advance and take effect immediately."
"Mission time limit: completed within ten years."
I feel so stuck today that I can only write 4,000 words.
Try to get 6,000 tomorrow, hehe~
