Civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty, begging me to ascend the throne

No matter the prince or your majesty.Even if His Majesty is not His Majesty, Chong'an has never thought of leaving His Highness's side. ,

Chong'an blinked sourly and showed a flattering smile to Jiang Yi.Now he is lucky to be by His Highness's side, but His Highness... is happy without the money to ascend the throne.

"You have a heart..."

Jiang Yi withdrew his eyes from the lotus pond, looked at Chong'an lightly, and said so.

Seeing His Majesty's approval, Chong'an was flattered and wrapped the cloak around Jiang Yi and tied it carefully.

The cloak made of mink fur ensures warmth, and the coldness he suffered just now due to the autumn wind has completely disappeared, and even Jiang Yi can't help but feel a bit of warmth in his heart.

"Go back..."

Jiang Yi took one last look back at the lotus pond, and then took Chong'an and his party back to Chongguang Hall on the dragon waiting outside the imperial garden.

There are still two people in the Chongguang Palace who have not left, even if the palace officials persuade them to do so. However, these two are important people, and they neither dare to push them out nor neglect them.

The palace servants had no choice but to serve tea and ask someone to inform His Majesty.

The two people who didn't leave were Li Yancheng who hurried to Qiaodu, and the other was the current Duke Zongzhengheng of the Zongren Mansion.

Duke Heng was very old. He was a junior of Emperor Wu. He had made great achievements with Emperor Wu in his early years.Many of his colleagues have died, but he is the only one who is still strong and alive.

Even when the late emperor was still alive, he could be regarded as his junior.

He is also the longest-lived drunk among the royal family members. He doesn't go out much on weekdays, and has little communication with courtiers and others.

Jiang Yi knew that the door of Duke Heng's mansion was rarely opened, and few guests came and went.

But today, when Jiang Yi saw Duke Heng, who rarely participated in government affairs, he couldn't help but feel a trace of surprise in his eyes.

"Why did you come here in person? What's the matter?"

Jiang Yi didn't dare to neglect the old man and asked.

Duke Heng didn't show off either. He had an old voice and coughed from time to time, looking frail.

"I am here to congratulate His Majesty."

"Well, now that King Wen has defeated the rebels, it is indeed a blessing for the Xia Kingdom." Jiang Yi sat on the dragon chair and praised King Wen with a calm expression.

Among them, no one knows how much of the words are sincere and how much are false.

Duke Heng Guo stroked his beard and did not express dissatisfaction with Jiang Yi's remarks.

He just continued: "Now that your majesty has such a powerful brother, our Daxia will prosper and the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe."

After that, he followed Jiang Yi and left.

It seemed as if he came here specifically just to praise King Wen with Jiang Yi.

Although Jiang Yi was a little puzzled, he was still very kind to the old man. He asked the palace servants to accompany Duke Heng back to the Duke's Mansion. After the Duke Heng left, Jiang Yi put away his 'Official smile', straightening the corners of his mouth.

Li Yancheng, who was sitting on the sidelines and watching, remained silent without speaking.

He is now His Majesty's man and a loyal and direct minister.But just because he is a direct minister, he should not speculate on the holy will or influence the holy will.

This is Li Yancheng's way of becoming an official.

A direct minister who can save trouble should not be a favored minister or a treacherous minister. He should follow the crowd and flatter his superiors.This is the long-term way to be an official.

"Where did King Wen get his troops?" When old Zongzheng had gone far away and the whole room fell into silence, Jiang Yicai suddenly said this in a cold voice.

Li Yancheng was wandering in the sky when he suddenly heard these words and couldn't help but shuddered in his heart and quickly sat upright.

After thinking for a moment, he said: "Perhaps it is the palace soldiers of the royal palace. Starting from the late emperor, the soldiers and horses of the vassal area have been strictly controlled. Even the palace soldiers only have 200 people. Then there should be the local soldiers and horses of Jizhou. .”

Li Yancheng carefully analyzed this matter for Jiang Yi. He couldn't help but pinch himself hard, reminding himself that he should be more careful in his response to this matter.

The most taboo thing for ministers who hold military power is to have too many entanglements with princes.

Even if His Majesty knows his loyalty, if he says the wrong thing, others will inevitably catch him later.

Jiang Yi responded coldly, "Yeah", indicating that he understood.

But he didn't seem to want to turn the story over. There seemed to be thousands of melancholy in his dark eyes, and a sharp light flashed across.

"King Wen has made great achievements this time, so he should be rewarded."

Jiang Yi said, frowning unconsciously, and continued: "Since he is already the prince, how should I reward him?"

This seemed to be a question to Li Yancheng, but in fact it was more like asking him himself.

Should we tolerate this big brother?
Should there be such a King Wen in his court?
Jiang Yi twisted his sleeves with his fingers. He did not look at Li Yancheng, but hoped that Li Yancheng could give him an answer.But Li Yancheng is not a fool. How could he not know that if he gets rid of this problem today, he is afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future.

Li Yancheng had no choice but to lower his head and remain silent, not daring to answer Jiang Yi's words at all.

Fortunately, Jiang Yi was just melancholy and didn't want to ask him to take sides.

"You go back first. Cheer up, we may need your people to finish it off when the time comes."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Li Yancheng agreed with his hands raised.

Then he saw Jiang Yi waving his hand, and he turned around and left Chongguang Hall.

……

季州
At this time, King Wen was in a very embarrassed state, but his face was very excited. He was riding a horse with a spear in one hand, looking heroic and brave, and picked out a rebel.

He held the reins in one hand and carried the spear in the other as he shuttled back and forth among the enemy troops. Every time he passed through, several people fell off their horses.

The King Wen who was riding on the horse seemed to have the invincible courage, as if the overlord was alive and Lu Bu was reincarnated, with extraordinary bravery.

Although the number of soldiers around King Wen was small, their morale was high. They were like bloodthirsty beasts on the battlefield. They were waving their spears and knives in their hands, and the cold light was freezing. They only had 3000 people and defeated the British Duke's more than 2 soldiers. The army kept retreating.

"Your Majesty is brave!"

"Your Majesty is brave!"

Seeing the enemy troops retreating in despair, the soldiers couldn't help but feel their morale rising. They howled and shouted, holding weapons in their hands to cheer up.

At this stop, they can be regarded as killing the rebels for the country. For themselves, they are also making a contribution. If they think about it, the rewards given to them by the imperial court will definitely not be less.

Thinking of this, many people looked at King Wen riding on the horse with admiration and admiration in their eyes.

This is the king they follow and pay allegiance to!
