Married a proud husband after farming

Chapter 1831 The Capable Magi

With a smile on the corner of Rong Jiu's lips, he said: "The investigation of the Fenglinguan case has confirmed that Mu Yan is Xi Ling's secret agent. Mu Yan acted cautiously and left no traces. It is difficult to find evidence to convict him, but Father can submit the letter of credence, if Emperor Ling is unwilling to truthfully reveal the details and hidden stakes lurking in Chang'an, why don't we help Pei Yan win the throne?"

Because of Nan Chu's assistance, Pei Yan and the Su family retreated steadily. If Nan Chu suddenly withdrew its troops and cooperated with Pei Yan, Xiling would have to change its dynasty.

A smile appeared on Emperor Chu's face, and he immediately wrote a letter of seal, asking Chu Wei to rush to Xiling.

In Emperor Chu's tone, there was a little hesitation: "Several countries will plant hidden stakes in each other. I didn't expect that the minister I entrusted with important tasks, once the prime minister, was actually the work of Xiling. The Mu family has a century-old family. Scenery, what good did Emperor Ling promise Mu Yan to make him so treasonable?"

Rong Jiu sipped his tea, and said calmly: "It's nothing more than some fame, wealth and power. Fortunately, Mrs. Mu is not a fool. The Mu family's power is ruined. Mu Yan has no one to use, and the courtiers can't avoid him. In Emperor Ling Before replying to the letter, it will be difficult for Mu Yan to make waves."

Emperor Chu asked: "Madam Mu went to the palace to impeach, did you already know?"

Rong Jiu shook his head: "That day, I only reminded Mrs. Mu that there were dead branches on the tree. Mrs. Mu was so decisive. When I heard that Mrs. Mu was so decisive, I was shocked."

"Among the courtiers, who does Xiao Jiu think can be the prime minister?"

Rong Jiu lowered his eyes and seemed to be thinking: "Father, why not choose a capable man from the six ministries or the cabinet."

Emperor Chu glanced at her: "You said it, but you didn't say it."

Rong Jiu smiled: "The courtiers are afraid of me like a tiger and have never been in touch with me. How can I understand them? The transfer of courtiers is related to the country. Father still called Seventh Brother to discuss."

"I don't believe it, you don't have anyone you like."

"There is one, but it is not a prime minister candidate, but a future pillar of the country."

Emperor Chu glanced at her: "Who?"

Rong Jiu mentioned Xiao Yan: "Xiao Yan is intelligent and precocious. At a young age, he has read a lot of books. My son cherishes his talent. I want to keep him by my side to cultivate him well, and he will be used by the country in the future. I don't know what the father wants?"

At the beginning, Emperor Chu decreed that the children of the Xiao family would never be allowed to serve as officials in the court, so this matter had to be discussed with Emperor Chu.

Emperor Chu groaned silently.

Rong Jiu drank tea and didn't say much, the hall was silent for a while.

After a long time, Emperor Chu only said: "He is from the Xiao family."

The Xiao family spent decades of thinking, from the Empress Dowager Xiao and Prime Minister Xiao, down to the members of the Xiao family's party members, all for the sole purpose of seizing the throne.

How many members of the royal family died at the hands of the Xiao family, Emperor Chu had a thorn in his heart, no matter how talented Xiao Yan was, as long as his surname was Xiao, and the blood of the Xiao family remained in his body, it would be difficult for Emperor Chu to tolerate him in the court.

Rong Jiu said: "Xiao Yan is pure and kind, unlike other Xiao family members, no matter whether it is Mr. Su or Shen Cheng, he will not teach a rebellious official to come out. I will raise him by my side and adopt him as a foster son. If he enters the court in the future, The courtiers will not use his identity as an issue."

"You're all set, what else can I say?"

When Emperor Chu said so, he agreed, and Rong Jiu said with a smile: "My son thanked Father Emperor on Xiao Yan's behalf."

"Are you going back to the medicine shop? When are you leaving?"

"At the latest, in half a month, the little ones will take part in this year's childbirth examination."
