marquis of jingan

Chapter 531
Li Mu stayed in Ganlu Hall for about half an hour before being sent out of the palace by the eunuch Gao Ming. After Gao eunuch sent Li Mu away, he immediately returned to Ganlu Hall. At this time, His Majesty the Emperor was still writing something in front of the desk.

Gao Ming approached and took a quick glance.

A big heart was written on the white paper.

Gao Ming quickly lowered his hands, stood beside His Majesty, lowered his head slightly and said, "Your Majesty, Prince Jin has already been sent out of the palace."

"Um…"

When the emperor spoke, he slashed hard with the brush in his hand and drew a beautiful stroke on his heart.

This heart word has become a must word.

After the emperor finished writing this word, he put the brush on the pen stand, and then returned to the soft couch in a dispirited mood, looked up at Gao Ming, and asked, "What do you think of Li Mu's words?"

Gao Ming bowed his head deeply, and after hesitating for a moment, he said slowly: "Your Majesty, I don't dare to have any opinions because of my shallow knowledge, but Jin Shizi has followed the rules all the way to the south, and has never done anything out of the ordinary. It's too much like an imperial envoy, he will leave everything to Shen Yi to do about the anti-Japanese army..."

"It can be said to be cautious."

"I know."

The emperor looked calm, and said lightly: "What I mean is, what do you think of the relationship between my cousin and Shen Yi?"

Gao Ming lowered his eyebrows and said: "Your Majesty, what does the Prince of Jin think, the slaves dare not speak nonsense, but Shen Yi is also a very cautious person, he will never be dizzy, let the court official not be an official of the Jin Palace official…"

"Um…"

The emperor lowered his brows and said: "I also think so, the current Shen Qi, if you give him 1 courage, he won't have any second thoughts about me, but one day in the future..."

Having said that, the emperor didn't continue talking.

He glanced at Gao Ming, then stretched his waist: "The anti-Japanese army has indeed done a good job in the past two years, Li Mu's advice is not unreasonable, there is no reason for me to send another boss to Shen Qi to take care of him."

His Majesty the Emperor said to himself: "The matter of fighting against the Japanese army can be put aside for now, and let Shen Qi go about it by himself."

Speaking of this, the emperor stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, and continued: "A few days ago, the victory report handed over by the Anti-Japanese Army actually included the content of asking for credit for Ying Zhao, the county magistrate of Yueqing..."

"This Shen Qi is good in everything, the only bad thing is that he was born as a civil servant, and he was born in Ganquan Academy. I have suffered enough from civil servants when I was young, and now the people in Ganquan Academy are becoming more and more powerful. This Shen Qi will become more and more powerful in the future. climb higher..."

The emperor's words were all spoken by himself. No one present, including Gao Ming, had the right to intervene, but Gao Ming, a fine man, would certainly not intervene at such a time.

After muttering to himself in a low voice, the emperor returned to lying on the soft couch and asked lazily, "Is there anyone who wants to see me today?"

Gao Ming quickly lowered his head and said: "Going back to Your Majesty, there is no arrangement yet, but Langzhong Pei Yuan Pei, who you sent as an envoy to the Northern Qi Dynasty at the beginning of the year, has already returned to Jiankang in the morning. If there is no accident, he should enter the palace to meet the saint in the afternoon."

The emperor frowned, and said with some disgust: "If he comes, let him go directly to Zhongshu, I don't want to see him."

Eunuch Gao quickly bowed his head: "Your servant obeys."

The emperor bowed his head and thought for a while, then said: "In the afternoon, call the three officials from the Ministry of War. I have something to discuss with them."

Eunuch Gao lowered his head slowly: "Your servant obeys..."

………………

In the evening, on the Guanyue Building by the Qinhuai River, Yang Fan, a servant of the Ministry of Industry, dressed in fine clothes and brocade clothes, put his arms around a young woman. I've done a lot of work for Bei Qi, so I've taken care of everything here, Brother Bo will rest here tonight to recharge his spirits."

Pei Yuan and Pei Bozhi thanked Yang Fan, and then heaved a long sigh: "Master, you made fun of me."

"My lord also knows today's temperament. I am an envoy to Northern Qi, and I sent money to the people of Qi. It can be said that my efforts are not thankful. No, come back to Jiankang today, and I will go to the palace to see Your Majesty. Willing to see me, just let me go to Zhongshu to do business."

Having said that, Pei Yuanchang sighed again.

"If I knew this earlier, I shouldn't have been an official in the Ministry of Rites, and I shouldn't have learned nonsense to deal with those Qi people."

Yang Fan smiled, and waved his hands away several women, and there were only the two of them left in the private room. Young Master Yang said to Pei Yuan, "Our Majesty, just speak harder, Brother Bo, you At the beginning, Cui Yu was dismissed from office, what was the result?"

"Brother Bo has not resumed his position as Minister of Rites, but he is still in charge of the department of host and guest, and Cui Yu..."

"If there is no accident, the old prime minister Wang Dan will also retire from his post at the next month's court meeting, and he will even bring Prime Minister Lu along to support him. At that time, two prime minister positions will be vacated at once. Cui Yuda The probability is about to return to phase."

Yang Fan patted Pei Yuan on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother Bo, look, your majesty doesn't say anything, but now the more you are in charge, the more you know that money is expensive. One day, your majesty will still use you Pei Bozhi again." .”

Pei Yuan was taken aback by these words, he raised his head to look at Yang Fan, lowered his head slightly and said, "Young Master Yang, I heard that His Majesty has set up some kind of anti-Japanese army along the coast, making it very impressive..."

"When I was in Northern Qi, many people from Qi asked me about this matter, asking me..."

"Is it the army His Majesty used to prepare for the Northern Expedition..."

Speaking of this, Pei Yuan smiled wryly and said: "Honestly speaking, I didn't even know there was such an anti-Japanese army until the people of Qi mentioned it. But since the people of Qi mentioned this matter, it should not be groundless."

"Unknown son..."

"How much do you know?"

"Northern Expedition?"

Yang Fan sneered slightly: "The 10,000+ army of the first emperor's dynasty fought in Lianghuai for a little over a year, and then disappeared. How many people are there in this anti-Japanese army?"

"It's all about 5000 people."

Yang Fan narrowed his eyes and said, "Even if this anti-Japanese soldier has three heads and six arms, it is impossible for him to be capable of the Northern Expedition, but speaking of it, that Shen is really capable."

"One or two years of hard work, I don't know where to fiddle with an army, and it can attract the attention of Qi people."

Pei Yuan took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Yes, a hero is a boy."

"I heard that Your Majesty also values ​​this person very much. This person was a Jinshi in the seventh year of Hongde, and now it is only the ninth year of Hongde, so he has moved three times in two years..."

"Moreover, this person is from Ganquan Academy and is Zhao Changping's disciple..."

"Whether he is Zhao Changping's disciple or not."

A smile appeared on the corner of Mr. Yang's mouth, and he said lightly: "In short, if he touches the army, you and I don't have to worry about it. Naturally, the group of people by the Huaihe River will worry about you, but..."

He looked up at Pei Yuan, and said with a smile: "However, Brother Bo, if you meet Qi people again one day, you might as well tell them intentionally or unintentionally that the Anti-Japanese Army does have the intention of the Northern Expedition..."

"In this way, maybe our people don't need to do anything, and someday the Qi people will press the anti-Japanese army to death."

Pei Yuan's face changed slightly.

"Young master...isn't that good?"

"You are in charge of the host and guest department, as long as you talk to the people of Qi, no one can hold your handle."

"And whether it works or not doesn't matter to us."

Yang Fan smiled and said, "Why don't you do what you can do?"

Pei Yuan's face changed slightly, and then he bowed his head silently.

"Young master...you are right."
