The prince is five and a half years old, and he is reclaiming land and becoming a group favorite.

Chapter 47: The empresses of each palace expressed their anger

Gu Yuchen glanced sideways at Zhao Xi, and when he saw his face wrinkled with laughter, he couldn't help but tutted: "Call Qi Chengjun for me."

Zhao Xi was about to go out when he heard him continue: "By the way, there is also the Minister of Hubu."

Qi Chengjun was the eldest son of the Duke of Qi, and he was also the emperor's companion. He was the emperor's first confidant. After the emperor ascended the throne, he asked Qi Chengjun to serve in the Hanlin Academy. It was obvious that the emperor wanted to train Qi Chengjun in the position of elder.

This time the emperor received a letter from His Highness, calling him Prince Qi, which must be related to Guard Qi.

Zhao Xi thought for a moment to understand the reason and immediately ordered the people out.

When Qi Chengjun arrived at the Imperial Study Room, the Minister of Household Affairs had not yet arrived, so he knelt down respectfully and said, "I am here to see you, Your Majesty."

"Get up." Gu Yuchen said softly, "There is news from Xie Changshi. He wants to send a message to me after establishing a bodyguard bureau. The tentative leader of the bodyguard is Qi Chenglang. Do you have any thoughts on this?"

what idea?Qi Chengjun wants to beat Xie Changshi to death!
He really didn't expect Xie Changshi to be so capable of causing trouble and even setting up a bodyguard bureau. His face immediately darkened: "Your Majesty, the minister will write to Chenglang and ask him to refuse."

Not to mention how ridiculous it is for a dignified third son of the Duke of the State to bring a sword guard in front of the imperial palace to serve as the head escort. Let’s just say that Xie Changshi let the guards scatter in the escort office, which means he is not responsible for the safety of His Royal Highness King Wen. Responsibility is also a major test of the emperor's trust.

He wanted to speak, but Gu Yuchen said: "But I think this is a good thing."

Qi Chengjun looked up at him, full of surprise, and then hurriedly lowered his head: "Your Majesty, please think again."

"Don't think twice, I've thought about it all over." Gu Yuchen seemed to want to tease Qi Chengjun, but he refused to tell the reason, which made Qi Chengjun break out in cold sweat.

After he felt that he had admired it enough, he raised his chin and said, "Zhao Xi, give Xiaoliu's letter to our Prince Qi to read."

Qi Chengjun took the letter with both hands and glanced at it. The more he read, the more frightened he became. The bandit was actually a villager from a village, and this Beidi bypassed the Mobei Army and entered the village directly. Isn't this funny?
If the Beidi people are so powerful, they in the Da Sang Kingdom might as well just lie down and admit death. Anyway, the Beidi people entering the Mobei defense line are like entering an uninhabited land. The Mobei army, which has been trained for many years, is as blind as a blind, and the whole village is allowed to be destroyed. Burn, kill and loot.

It wasn't until he saw the letter that he would snatch back all the things given by the emperor and bring back all the bandits that Qi Chengjun breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he also understood why Xie Changshi made such a bold decision.

He believed that the emperor must have seen Xie Changshi's temptation just like him, which made him have to think more, what should Xie Changshi do if he really supports his troops and respects himself in the future?
He knew his brother very well. He was a typical person with "well-developed limbs and simple mind." If Xie Changshi really led King Wen on a path of no return in the future, his brother would be the sharpest person around King Wen. A knife.

Qi Chengjun thought about it, his head was about to burst, but he still couldn't figure out how to persuade him. After all, the emperor must have analyzed the pros and cons of this matter...

Seeing the look on Qi Chengjun's face, Gu Yuchen was a little amused: "Okay, don't cry and look sad. If things are really out of control, it will happen many years later. The most important thing now is Mobei. News came from the army that Beidi was divided. It's almost over, if we still can't find that person, Mobei will fall sooner or later."

He took a deep breath: "Your Majesty, all ministers must obey your Majesty's arrangements."

The worst case scenario is to write a letter to Qi Chenglang and ask this brainless person to pay more attention...

Gu Yuchen hummed: "Qi Chenglang is on the outskirts of the capital now..." Before he could finish his words, Qi Chengjun suddenly knelt down and said with horror in his eyes: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

It turns out that Xie Changshi is not the most daring person, only more daring!

What is Qi Chenglang's identity? His Royal Highness Wen Wang's personal bodyguard is not allowed to enter the capital without being summoned. It's good for him. He used the excuse of walking as an escort to arrive outside the capital. Will he be able to use the escort to enter the capital directly next time?
The matter in Mobei is urgent now. The emperor can ignore it, but there is no guarantee that he will not settle accounts in the future.

The more Qi Chengjun thought about it, the more frightened he became, and his entire back was almost wet with sweat.

The reason for recommending Qi Chenglang to Mobei was to let him eliminate his family identity and perform meritorious service. Only in this way can he stand firm in the court in the future. It is not the case that the third son of the Duke of Qi is in the capital and is said to have relied on his family's protection to become the official. There are guards with swords in front of the palace.

If I had known this would happen, I might as well have let him live in peace for the rest of his life right under his nose.

Qi Chengjun wanted to speak, but Gu Yuchen said: "Okay, obey the authority when the matter is urgent, I don't care what you care about. Besides, am I the kind of person who settles accounts after the fall? That person can blatantly send people to snatch the things given by the emperor? , is obviously ready to break up with me at any time, but now there is just one opportunity left."

A legitimate opportunity!

If the father hadn't left in a hurry, and he happened to be the prince, I'm afraid it's still unclear who the throne belongs to.

Now that the matter has come to this, it is useless to say more. Qi Chengjun leaned forward and said, "I am scared."

"You wait outside the palace. When the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue comes and discusses the reward, you take the things with you, give them to Qi Chenglang, and tell him that I agree."

Only then did Qi Chengjun leave the imperial study. The sunlight outside the palace was dazzling, and it should have been warm when it shone on people. However, the chill continued to rise from the soles of his feet, covering his whole body.

Only then did he have to admit how powerful Xie Changshi was. It seemed that everything had offended the emperor, but he accurately asked the emperor to lower the bottom line a little bit.

I hope Xie Changshi can always be so cautious and never have any inappropriate thoughts.

After a while, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue entered the imperial study room, and soon came out with a frown on his face. When he came out, he saw Qi Chengjun without saying anything and sighed: "Qi Dianbu, let's go."

The imperial study room returned to silence. Gu Yuchen pinched his chin. Xiaoliu gave gifts in return to all the palaces. It would seem a bit inappropriate if the palaces did not express their gratitude...

The empresses of each palace expressed their confusion when they saw the return gifts piled up in the yard. They knew that they had given out a lot of Mid-Autumn Festival rewards, but this was the first time they received return gifts.

Although the specialties sent were not expensive, they were very thoughtful and avoided taboos. Just as they were about to be touched, they were told that there was still a reply. The empresses in the palace suddenly burst into tears. How could this child be so sensible?
No, I have to reciprocate the gift, but what should I reciprocate...

This afternoon, the empresses from all the palaces went to Kunning Palace together. The first words they met were still indispensable to show off, but this time it was not the emperor's reward that they showed off, but the return gift from King Wen.

When they learned that their return gifts were not unique, the empresses of each palace expressed their anger. No, they must write to Xiaoliu, and next time they would have to return gifts uniquely!
