Be an emperor from drawing cards

Chapter 155 The first court meeting after returning to Beijing
The next morning.

The light dew of the morning sun dissipated all the light morning fog that shrouded the sky.

Thousands of rays of rays of light shone on the rows of buildings in Shenjing City, rendering the huge imperial city a layer of golden color.

At dawn, in Qingqiu Palace.

The young emperor, who woke up leisurely, glanced at the girls who were sleeping deeply, got up quietly, went to the outer hall, and asked the palace maids to serve him to put on his crown clothes. Then he left the palace gate and went to Tai Chi Hall accompanied by Gao Lishi. .

"Bah, you nasty little thief!"

Hearing the footsteps getting further and further away, Zhu Yuyan opened her starry eyes, looked at the messy bed, and spat softly.

When he saw Bai Qing'er who was still sleeping soundly next to him, he suddenly felt very angry.

It's all because of this villain that made me look like this!
Thinking of this, the charming beauty raised her hand and slapped the round and straight part.

With a crisp sound, Bai Qing'er woke up suddenly. She subconsciously turned her head and saw Zhu Yuyan's pink and frosty face coming into her eyes.

"Master, Master?"

The breath of Bai Qing'er's wake-up call was instantly relieved, and her tone softened by seven points.

"Good disciple, if that little thief is not here, I will settle this debt with you!"

Zhu Yuyan said with a sneer.

"Of course, besides you, there is also Junior Sister Zou..."

Not to mention the three daughters of Zhu Yuyan, in the Tai Chi Hall, with the arrival of Zhao Yu, the court meeting officially began.

"Go up!"

In the powerful voice of Gao Lishi, all civil and military officials entered the palace in order of rank, bowed three times and kowtowed to Zhao Yu on the throne, and shouted long live the mountain.

Looking at the familiar faces in the hall, Zhao Yu felt quite emotional and nodded slightly.

At the same time, in Zhao Yu's field of vision, several lines of small characters in regular script that ordinary people could not see appeared.

[Due to the consecutive defeats of the armies of Qi and Burma, the national prestige increased by 1000 points, and the people's popularity increased by 10 points! 】

[Because the imperial commander personally conquered, suppressed the rebellion, and defeated the enemy country, the imperial prestige increased by 1000 points, and the loyalty of the courtiers increased by 10 points! 】

[Due to the alliance with the tribes in the southwest, the probability of obtaining famous non-Chinese ministers will increase by 5% within ten years! 】

[Because of your strategic planning, command +2, military strategy +2, and wisdom +1! 】

【Get 500 brilliant points! 】

[Activate the national destiny to “deter neighboring countries”! 】

[Deterrence neighboring countries: Our outstanding military operations have made neighboring countries fearful and dare not use military force rashly.Positive effect: Within two years, neighboring countries will not initiate war; Passive effect: Within two years, neighboring countries' espionage activities will be greatly enhanced! 】

This can be considered a summary after the war...

Looking at the lines of system text, Zhao Yu's heart moved and he called up the personal attributes panel.

[April [-], the first year (spring) of Yanfeng in the Great Chu Dynasty]

[Strength 95 (ancient ingot sword +3, original 54 → 64), control 79, military strategy 69, political strategy 82, wisdom 89, literature 91, charm 97, physical strength 100, health 100, age 16. 】

[Imperial Prestige: 4300, Brilliant Points: 3772]

【已装备帝卡1/1，已装备武学0/3，已装备天命0/1】

[(Purple) Jun Card: King Huan of Changsha - Sun Ce, card skills: Become famous at a young age, majestic and heroic, good in general, and the talent of a king. 】

[Martial arts: Huangji Jingshilu; Qinggong: Wind and Fire True Movement Technique. 】

Not bad!

Looking at his various attributes, Zhao Yu was quite satisfied.

Except for military strategy, all attributes are basically above 80 points. Today, he has gradually become a hexagonal warrior.

Looking at his imperial prestige value of 4300 points, Zhao Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

In almost half a year, he finally had enough to unlock half of the imperial power to unlock his first destiny. This progress far exceeded his expectations.

It seems that if there is a chance, we should fight more!
Gathering his thoughts, Zhao Yu said:

"Masters, please be courteous, let's get down!"

"I thank you, Your Majesty!"

The ministers said in unison, and then stood up.

Zhao Yu glanced at the civil and military officials bowing their heads in the palace and said:

"Our court's successive great victories this time are all due to the hard work of the ministers and the bloody battles of the soldiers. Once the credit is due, the Ministry of War must cooperate with the Privy Council and draw up a charter as soon as possible!"

Privy envoy Wang Pu and the right minister of the Ministry of War Chen Yan came out one after another.

"The ministers obey the order."

"This matter is of great importance. Don't keep me waiting."

Zhao Yu nodded, looked at Zhou Rui, the Minister of Household Affairs, and said warmly:
"When Privy Wang and Chen Shangshu come up with the regulations, Zhou Qing will also ask the Ministry of Household Affairs to prepare as soon as possible and prepare the gold and silver rewards for meritorious officials. If the national treasury is insufficient, you can come to me. I have it in my inner treasury. There is still some gold and silver left.”

Regarding his father-in-law, Zhao Yu's tone is quite gentle.

"Your Majesty is thinking of me, and I am deeply grateful."

Zhou Rui first went out to salute Zhao Yu to thank him, and then said cautiously:

"There are sufficient supplies in the national treasury, and the rewards given to the three armies should be sufficient. However, I have few talents and little knowledge, and it is a bit difficult to preside over the affairs of a certain department. I would also like to ask Your Majesty to choose an effective assistant for me."

After Huang Jingming's incident, Zhou Rui's thoughts on his official career were much less concerned. In addition, his two daughters were brought into the palace by His Majesty and were quite favored.

The Zhou family became relatives of the emperor, which made Zhou Rui even more cautious, fearing that if he made a mistake, he would not only tarnish the reputation of his two daughters, but also make his majesty feel disgusted.

In Zhou Rui's view, he was appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue by Zhao Yu, but it was just a move by His Majesty to appease the ministers who had turned to Huang Jingming in the past.

Now that His Majesty has returned victorious and his prestige has greatly increased, it is time for him, the Minister of Household Affairs, to retreat bravely.

Zhao Yu took a deep look at Zhou Rui and understood his thoughts instantly.

You're not even sixty years old, but you just want to fish?
Think peaches too!

Now in the court, as the old Situ Zhang Kangnian and the former right minister Gao Zhan of the Ministry of War retired and returned home, prestigious ministers became increasingly rare. In order to stabilize the situation in the court, Zhao Yu was reluctant to let his father-in-law leave at this time. .

"I will keep what Zhou Qing said in my heart. However, I am still ambitious and have great ambitions. I hope that Zhou Qing will continue to share my worries in the court and shine for the great Chu."

As soon as his voice changed, Zhao Yu asked again:
"However, I was thinking in my heart, since Zhou Qing mentioned it now, I guess we have a suitable candidate?"

As a veteran minister in the court and his father-in-law, Zhao Yu still had to give him the face he deserved.

"Your Majesty, Zhuge Jin, the Minister of Rites, is a diligent and dedicated person who will become a pillar of Chu State in the future. I would like to ask Your Majesty to transfer him to the Ministry of Household Affairs to help him manage the affairs of the Ministry." Zhou Rui said respectfully.

While Zhao Yu was away from the capital, Zhuge Jin was temporarily transferred from the Ministry of Rites to the Ministry of Household Affairs to assist Zhou Rui.

During this period, Zhuge Ziyu's ability and character were all noticed by Zhou Rui, who knew that this person was a great talent.

Zhuge Jin has a gentle temper and can get along well with everyone. He is not at all aggressive like his friend Yu Fan, so Zhou Rui admires him very much.

In addition, before Zhao Yu left Beijing, he arranged Zhuge Jin, who was just the Minister of Rites, into the cabinet, which also showed his trust in him.

Everyone likes such a person who has outstanding abilities, is gentle to others, and is trusted by His Majesty.

Doing this by yourself can be considered as paving the way for Zhuge Ziyu in the future. I think both His Majesty and Ziyu can see it.More importantly, he also indirectly helped his two daughters in the court.

Zhao Yu's mind moved slightly, he glanced at Zhuge Jin who was silent among the ministers, and asked lightly:
"Zhuge Qing, are you willing to work in the Ministry of Household Affairs?"

Zhuge Jin came out of the queue, held a scepter and reported: "I will obey your Majesty's arrangements."

"Okay! I like your attitude of daring to do things!" Zhao Yu said in a deep voice, "The Minister of Rites, the Minister of Daihu, where is Zhuge Jin!"

Seeing Zhao Yu being so solemn, Zhuge Jin trembled all over, took a deep breath, bowed to the ground holding the hut, and said loudly:
"My dear Zhuge Jin, I respectfully listen to the edict!"

"After the recommendation of Zhou Shangshu, I will promote you to the right minister of the Ministry of Revenue to assist Zhou Shangshu in handling the affairs of the Ministry of Revenue! I hope you will continue to work hard and not let me down!"

In just half a year, Zhuge Jin was promoted from a commoner to a third-rank right servant of the Ministry of Household Affairs. The speed of his promotion was rare even in the 200-year history of Chu State.

"Sir, thank Your Majesty Long En!"

Feeling the deep trust in Zhao Yu's words, Zhuge Jin was excited, raised the wat board above his head, and said loudly:
"Your Majesty, I will never let you down!"

Zhao Yu nodded with satisfaction and signaled Zhuge Jin to step back.Immediately, he looked around at all the officials in the court and continued:

"This time, I personally went on an expedition. Fortunately, with the help of two great talents, I was able to quickly put down the rebellion and repel the Burmese army. If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you make mistakes, you will be punished. These two people have made great achievements, and if they are not praised, it will not be enough to appease people's hearts. .Gao Lishi."

Gao Lishi, who was standing next to Zhao Yu, understood instantly, mobilized his internal strength, and sang loudly:
"Xuan Jiaxu and Li Ru came to the palace to have an audience!"

Not long after, Jia Xu and Li Ru came to the Tai Chi Hall under the guidance of two imperial guards.

"Grassman Jia Xu, Jia Wenhe/Li Ru, Li Wenyou, pay homage to your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"

"You two are equal."

As Jia Xu and Li Ru stood up, all the eyes of the civil and military officials focused on the two.

From the perspective of the officials, Jia Xu Jia Wen and his chubby round face were full of smiles, which made people fall in love with him at first sight. In contrast, Jia Xu and Jia Wen had a pair of angular eyes and a chin. Li Ru and Li Wenyou, who wore a goatee, exuded a cold aura, like a poisonous snake hiding in the corner, which made people shudder.

"Jia Xu was promoted to Privy Counselor of the fourth rank to assist Wang Qing in matters related to the Privy Council; Li Ru was promoted to Governor of the Mirror Division of the Fourth Rank of the Editorial Office to assist He Baqing."

Zhao Yu looked at the two people and said with a smile.

The Privy Council established after Zhao Yu came to power was headed by the Privy Council Envoy, and consisted of Deputy Privy Council Envoys, Privy Counselor Envoys, and Privy Counselor Bachelors, who were responsible for managing military affairs. etc., the Mirror Department supervises officials at all levels of departments to prevent corruption.

The responsibilities of the Spiegel Department and the Control Council are roughly the same, except that the Spiegel Department is in the dark and the Control Yuan is in the light.

In the past, due to the lack of manpower in Zhao Yu's hands, He Bayun was responsible for all the large and small affairs of the editorial office, which greatly increased his burden and inevitably affected his work efficiency.

Now that he has Li Ru's assistance, he thinks it will be much easier, and the operating efficiency of the entire editorial office will be greatly improved, and it will officially play its due role.

As a large number of heroes are summoned by Zhao Yu, He Bayun will gradually fall out of the first echelon.

According to Zhao Yu's idea, after Li Ru became familiar with the work procedures of the Jishi Office and made great achievements, he would be completely straightened up and He Bayun would be transferred to other positions.

As for Jia Xu, he was also a Taiwei in history. He was very familiar with military affairs and could definitely help Wang Pu.

Jia Xu is a smiling tiger. If anyone despises him, he will pay a very heavy price in the future.

"Sir, thank Your Majesty Long En!"

After hearing Zhao Yu's arrangements for them, both Jia Xu and Li Ru were quite satisfied. They bowed to Zhao Yu before retreating to the ranks of officials.

After arranging Jia Xu and Li Ru, Zhao Yu looked at the ministers in the palace and his voice became serious.

"Finally, I want to tell you something important."

"I think all the ministers also know that the Jin State has sent envoys to the DPRK, intending to suspend the war between our DPRK and the Qi State."

As soon as Zhao Yu said this, the officials in the palace had different expressions and began to whisper among themselves.

Looking at the noisy scene, Chu Ziwen, the imperial censor, frowned and shouted in a deep voice:
"Quiet! Colleagues, please don't lose etiquette in front of me!"

Seeing all the censors looking at themselves, the ministers quickly stopped and did not dare to say another word.

If these crows from the Overwatch Council write it down in a small notebook, then one day they may not be able to eat enough and they will be ruthlessly included in a notebook...

"Qing Cao."

Seeing that the court hall had returned to calm, Zhao Yu just looked at Cao Huan, the Minister of Rites.

Cao Huan walked out of the queue holding a wat tablet in his hand, bowed deeply to Zhao Yu, and said:
"Your Majesty, here is my minister."

"I leave it to your Ministry of Rites to welcome the envoys of the Jin Dynasty. They must do it beautifully and don't let the northerners find the opportunity to laugh at our dynasty. In addition, send a message to the soldiers and generals responsible for escorting these envoys. Don’t let the Northerners get the important information of our dynasty, go straight to Shenjing all the way, and don’t listen to the other party’s words and take detours.”

Zhao Yu solemnly asked.

Seeing Zhao Yu's serious expression, Cao Huan also understood the importance of this matter and said quickly:
"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the Ministry of Rites will do a good job."

"I am quite reassured by Cao Qing's ability." Zhao Yu nodded and looked around at the ministers, "When the Jin envoys come to court, you must show the character of the Chu people and don't let the Jin people look down upon you. Let’s go.”

"I will obey your orders!"

The ministers responded one after another.

"That's all for today. I'm a little tired. Let's retreat!"

Zhao Yu waved his hand, stood up from the dragon chair and said.

Seeing this, all the civil and military officials hurriedly bowed and saluted, and said in unison: "I respectfully see you off, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Yu, surrounded by the palace attendants, left the Taiji Hall and headed towards the Zihuan Hall.

Having not been in Shenjing for more than a month, I must have accumulated a large number of memorials waiting for his review.

In this compartment, not long after He Bayun and Li Rufang walked out of the Tai Chi Hall and were about to return to the official office to get acquainted with each other, a slightly high-pitched voice suddenly came from behind.

"Two adults, please stay."

Li Ru turned around and saw a young chamberlain walking towards him quickly.

And He Boyun, who was beside Li Ru, had already recognized the identity of the person.

"I've seen Gao Diaoyu!"

It turns out to be His Majesty’s most trusted chamberlain, Gao Lishi!
Li Ru suddenly realized this and quickly imitated He Bayun in bowing his hands and saluting, saying, "I've seen Gao Diaoyu before!"

Gao Lishi returned the favor, and Fang smiled and said his intention.

"Two adults, Your Majesty has asked us to send a message to our family, asking you to go to Zihuan Palace to discuss state affairs."

He Bayun arched his hands in the direction of Zihuan Palace and said solemnly:
"Since His Majesty has summoned me, how can I and Mr. Li refuse to obey the imperial edict? Eunuch Gao, please lead the way!"

Not long after, under the guidance of Gao Lishi, He Bayun and Li Ru arrived outside Zihuan Hall.

"My two gentlemen, please wait a moment. Let's go into the palace and make an announcement."

After that, Gao Lishi walked into the hall, came to Zhao Yu who was reviewing the memorial, and whispered:

"Your Majesty, Pavilion Master Heba and Master Li are already waiting outside the palace."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yu put the ink pen on the pen holder and said:
"Let them both in."

Soon, He Basheng and Li Ru were led to Zhao Yu.

"Ke Ni, Wen You, are you here? Hercules, give you two seats and tea!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Taking the tea from the waiter, the two of them carefully placed half of their buttocks on the round stool.

He Bayun asked: "I wonder what your Majesty's orders are when he summons his ministers?"

When your Majesty returned to the court, he privately summoned himself and Li Ru, the newly appointed governor of the Mirror Division, in front of him. Thinking of the responsibilities of the Editorial Office, something big must have happened.

Zhao Yu didn't speak, just glanced at Gao Lishi.

Gao Lishi understood and led all the serving maids and chamberlains out of the palace. He walked at the end, closed the palace door himself, and stood guard outside, not letting anyone get close.

When only the monarch and his ministers were left in the palace, Zhao Yufang spoke leisurely.

"I summoned you and the two of you here for the matter of the capital camp."

As he spoke, he briefly told the two of them the rumors that Chun Yuqing, the captain of the Zhisu Province, was bullying men and dominating women in southern Xinjiang, and was corrupt in the capital camp, and finally said:

"It is not a pity to die for such a big rat. However, if this person can be allowed to embezzle money and bend the law in the Beijing camp, it shows that there must be someone behind him who has instructions, otherwise there will be no way to sell those greedy military supplies and weapons. Not long after General Han Sheng took office as the governor of the Beijing camp, He is a loyal and upright person, and this matter has absolutely nothing to do with him. Naturally, I can trust the imperial censor, but I cannot trust the Supervisory Yuan. Therefore, I want the Editorial Office to get to the bottom of this matter. I want to see, in this prosperous city Behind the sacred city of Jing, there are still many corrupt and bribe-taking worms hiding in the city!"

At the end of the speech, Zhao Yu's voice and look were both serious.

"If it is true as the Holy One said, the Office of Compilation will investigate to the end and will never tolerate it!"

He Boyun and Li Ru were shocked and expressed their opinions one after another.

Not to mention that the Jishi Office is a sharp knife in His Majesty's hands. Even if it is not, He Bayun and Li Ru have completely the same attitude towards corrupt officials.

Behead to kill!
Only if you kill ruthlessly and too much will those corrupt officials be afraid and restrain their claws from spreading randomly!
"Okay, then I will wait and see, waiting for your good news!"

Zhao Yu nodded with satisfaction, picked up a gold medal from the imperial case and handed it to He Bayun.

"This case is of great importance, and I will delegate power to the Editorial Office. Anyone involved in this case, regardless of official position, can be interrogated first as long as they are suspected. If you dare to obstruct the work of the Editorial Office, you will be punished immediately. And treat him as a comrade!"

Looking at the palm-sized wooden plaque in their hands with the four golden characters "I am here in person" engraved on it, both He Bayun and Li Ru felt Zhao Yu's determination.

The emperor hates evil as much as he hates it, this is the sign of a holy king!
Thinking of this, the two people quickly leaned to the ground and said loudly:
"My lord, thank you for your majesty's trust, and I am willing to serve your majesty till the day you die!"
