Houmen's wife

Chapter 249 Return of the True Vice Admiral (3)
Before the Qing Palace.

In the Golden Luan Hall, civil and military officials stood beside the two golden lacquered and carved dragon pillars, and a guard walked in. "Your Majesty, the army has already arrived at the long street in the capital, but it will take only one stick of incense to reach the front of the palace."

The emperor stood up from the dragon chair, but said with a smile: "All my loves accompany me to the gate of the palace to wait for our army."

"The ministers obey the order."

When the canopy was erected, the emperor walked in front, followed by all the civil and military officials, and there were nearly a hundred eunuchs and maids accompanying him, and the momentum was huge.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, they saw not far away two tall horses approaching in a mighty manner. The men on the horses were holding the reins, and their faces were filled with the joy of returning victorious.

The two infantrymen were holding a brocade banner in their hands. In the chilling autumn wind, the pennant fluttered and let the wind shuttle.

General Shi and Deputy General Hua stopped at the gate of the palace, and they immediately got off their horses and knelt down, "The last general came to see the emperor, fortunately he did not disgrace his life, and put an end to the chaos in northern Mongolia."

"Okay, okay. You are indeed my Dajin's ever-victorious general!" The emperor immediately helped General Shi up, and said to Vice-General Hua, "Let's all be leveled."

General Shi narrowed his eyes, and glanced at the people behind the emperor, seeing that there was one more person on the right, his eyes darkened slightly.Has Yue Renxuan joined the Ministry of War?
It seems that the prime minister really knows how to do it.

Seeing that Prime Minister Yue Changhui was not among them, his face turned foul, he just cupped his hands to the emperor, and stood with his hands behind his back, without saying much.

The emperor's smile gradually faded away, seeing his arrogance, his complexion became even more ugly.

Vice-General Hua immediately stepped forward and said to the emperor: "This time I fulfilled my mission, the soldiers are all tired, let the general let them take them down to rest."

The emperor nodded, but looked at the dazzled lieutenant deeply, and raised his brows almost inaudibly.

"Putting it out to Qianqing Palace." Jiang Qianrong made a tune.

Everyone went back to Qianqing Palace together, General Shi and Deputy General Hua stood first and second on the right.

The emperor smiled, and said: "Shi Aiqing and Hua Aiqing have made great contributions this time, and they are the heroes of Dajin. Why don't we give a thousand mu for two days. Ten thousand taels of gold?" two people.

General Shi cupped his hands, "Your Majesty, I don't want this reward." He paused and looked at the vacant seat of the prime minister. He didn't show up even though he came back today. Was he afraid?
He lowered his eyes halfway, and then said: "Your Majesty, this time to put down the chaos in northern Mongolia, a big mistake was caused due to the issue of military rations. The last general's favorite general suffered heavy casualties. The last general asked the emperor to return the rice grain under the management of the prime minister." Twelve taxes are collected for future emergency use."

Marquis Anping paused for a while while turning the Tai Chi ball, he raised his eyebrows and glanced at General Shi, it was interesting.Is this delicate relationship about to explode?
Duanmu Junye also said with a smile: "Your Majesty, what General Shi said is true. At the beginning when the first emperor handed over the rice line to the prime minister, he also said that he would have to pay eleven taxes. Later, the emperor thanked the prime minister for his public morality. Although the prime minister is not Deliberately causing the misfortune of rice grain, but it really caused the death of General Shi's subordinates in Mengbei."

General Shi closed his eyes, and these soldiers followed him all over the world, but they didn't expect to die in Mengbei!He gritted his teeth, not seeing Yue Da's trembling hands at all.

The twelfth tax was levied by [-]% at once. The rice grain was produced in a regular manner and given to the palace. In the future, there will be a lot less in the capital...

He took a deep breath, looked up at the emperor, his face darkened slightly.

The emperor chuckled, "What Shi Qing's family said is true, Yue Da, you should follow suit."

Yue Da only felt that his face was green and white, so he had no choice but to answer yes.

Marquis Anping raised his eyebrows, took a step forward and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, why is it that the number one scholar has not arrived yet?"

As soon as he said this, everyone expressed their doubts in the morning. This Yue Renxuan and Qin Guan are here, so why don't they see Wang Xiangyang.

The emperor narrowed his eyes, and said with a smile: "I appointed Wang Xiangyang as a fourth-rank attendant, and conferred Jinshi Lin Luo, Jiang Shang, and Kui also as fifth-rank attendants."

As soon as the emperor's words fell, everyone sighed.

This No. [-] scholar can only serve as the emperor's accompanying student?This has never happened since the opening of the dynasty.This……

An Pinghou nodded, so it was really the same as what the girl said.So, the emperor intends to arbitrarily decide the affairs of the court.In this way, the prime minister was really emptied.

Everyone didn't expect this, but felt that Zhuangyuan Lang was at a loss.Thinking about the career of Zhuangyuanlang in the future, this is the only way he can do it.

However, what the emperor said next surprised everyone.

"In the future, the affairs of the court do not need to be handed over to the prime minister. They will be sent directly to the newly opened South Study Room. Wang Xiangyang and others will select them, and then I will give instructions."

There was an uproar in the hall.

But when they raised their eyes and saw the cold look from the emperor, they all fell silent and did not dare to breathe.However, in this case, the prime minister no longer has decision-making power.

Everyone became anxious and cautious.Now that the prime minister is not in the court, when encountering this incident, many people are like flies that have lost their heads.

"Your Majesty, this matter..." Minister of the Ministry of Officials was about to speak, but the Emperor raised his eyebrows and said: "There is no need to say more, I have made up my mind."

He glanced at Jiang Qianrong.

Jiang Qianrong said immediately: "Retire."

The emperor got up and left, leaving everyone in the court whispering.

Lieutenant Hua's face turned stinky, didn't he want to reward him?General Shi slashed the prime minister, and he also slashed himself. This reward is a blow, and now even the emperor wants to shave the prime minister.

He narrowed his eyes, waiting to see what happened.

Marquis Anping took two steps, but looked at those two people.

Yue Renxuan originally thought that Wang Xiangyang, the number one scholar, became a fourth-rank attendant, and he felt that he had a good face. He didn't want the emperor's announcement to confirm that Wang Xiangyang had become a favorite, and himself...even his grandfather's rights were violated !

He waved, turned and walked out.

Qin Guan looked at the crowd coldly, and when he was about to leave, he saw a man standing in front of him with dignity.With a frown, he looked at Anpinghou.

"what's up?"

Seeing the impatience in his eyes, Marquis Anping pointed out, "I need your help."

After seeing and talking about Ruyi's entry into the Imperial College, Marquis Anping smiled slightly, seeing Qin Guan glanced at the person leaving in front of him, he asked: "This is a favor, are you willing to help?"
