The Emperor's Son-in-Law

"Your Majesty has arrived!"

"All the ministers welcome you!"

Before Duan Chun turned around and took a step, the eunuch's sharp voice sounded from one side of the hall.

"Your Majesty, we welcome our emperor."

"Long live our emperor, long live our emperor, long live our emperor!"

In an instant, all the ministers in the hall bowed their heads to the throne on the high platform.

Duan Chun could only turn around helplessly, bow his head with both hands and shout along.

The emperor strode onto the high platform from one side and waved his long sleeves: "All the ministers, please stand up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The ministers then sat down quietly.

Waiting for His Majesty's order.

Duan Chun looked and saw that the seats for military commanders in front were all full.

He had to lower his head quickly and hide behind Li Que and Li Wenkai.

I hope Your Majesty will not discover his existence...

But unfortunately, who is His Majesty the Emperor?

He has been fighting all his life, and he has to manage the world and the inner palace with intrigue.

At first glance, he saw a group of ministers in purple robes on the side of the generals.

There was a dark red figure.

He tried to avoid his sight by hiding.

The emperor took a closer look and found that it was this guy...

Why did he come to the court?

Shouldn't he report to the Ministry of Personnel today?

"Duan Chun, the waiting official of the Ministry of Personnel."

The emperor said lightly while sitting on the throne.

"I am here!"

Duan Chun felt numb when he heard it. Oh my god, His Majesty called his name directly.

He could only stand up and clasp his fists in response.

"You... why did you come to the court?"

"I don't think I summoned the officials of the Ministry of Personnel."

"Zhang Aiqing, did you bring him in?"

The emperor asked.

"Your Majesty, Duan Sheren has not yet gone to the Ministry of Personnel to be used."

"I don't know why he came to the court."

Zhang Ke stood up and said.

"Your Majesty, I was summoned by the eunuchs to the palace to take up my duties early in the morning."

"I didn't know the rules of the palace for a while, and I thought I was here to see Your Majesty."

Duan Chun hurriedly explained.

"In other words, you came to the wrong place to take up your duties."

"You actually came to my court meeting."

The emperor's face, which was originally solemn, showed a slight smile in his eyes.

This kid is a little cute in his stupidity.

Hahaha...

At the court meeting, a group of ministers burst into laughter.

Even the six princes and the royal family sitting in the front couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

Only the King of Wei, the King of Chu, and the Duke of Wu.

The look he gave Duan Chun was as cold as a knife...

"Your Majesty, Duan Chun made such a big mistake on his first duty."

"It's really embarrassing!"

"Please summon the guards and drive him out."

Duke of Wu stood up and said.

"Father, I also think that what Duke Wu said makes a lot of sense."

"Duan Chun was so reckless on his first duty that he dared to intrude into the court meeting!"

"Father, you must teach him a lesson, so that he won't make a bigger mistake in the future."

The King of Chu stood up and said.

"You two sit down first."

"Today I convened an emergency court meeting, which is related to Duan Chun."

"Since he is here, I just want to hear his opinion."

"You two don't need to dwell on this matter."

The emperor said loudly.

"Your son obeys your order."

"I understand."

The King of Chu and Duke Wu frowned and quickly sat back on the couch.

"Today's court meeting is related to him?"

A group of ministers looked at Duan Chun in surprise.

"Three days ago, there was a state banquet at Jing'an Palace."

"I heard that the Xirong Kingdom's envoys left without saying goodbye, which was too rude!"

"And in the past three days, I have received a report."

"The Xirong Kingdom sent messengers and pigeons to send secret letters to the country."

"This is the secret letter from the Xirong Kingdom intercepted by the Shenji Palace."

"Come and take a look, my dear ministers."

The emperor said.

Li Gaofu waved his whisk, and three eunuchs held brocade plates, each with two letters on it.

Immediately sent them to the royal family and civil and military officials on both sides.

"This is the letter from the Xirong Kingdom intercepted by the Shenji Palace."

"One is their original letter, and the other is translated into Dakang characters."

"My dear ministers, take a good look."

The emperor said.

Everyone quickly stood up and checked the two letters one by one.

Everyone's face instantly became serious.

Duan Chun also saw the letter in Li Que's hand, and it was exactly as he guessed.

This was after the Xirong Kingdom failed to be granted the title of vassal king by Dakang.

The secret letter sent by the envoy of Xirong to their king, requesting the king to send troops to harass the border of Dakang.

Show Dakang some color...

The Xirong Kingdom is used to being free in the mountains.

Taking advantage of the war in the Central Plains, they have not been beaten for decades.

Relying on their mountainous terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, they want to deliberately make trouble!

"Boy, this is what you did."

Li Que said softly, handing the letter to other generals for circulation.

"Uncle, these barbarians."

"Even if your majesty gives them the title of king, they will make trouble sooner or later."

"It is better to solve this trouble as soon as possible."

Duan Chun replied in a low voice.

"Since you are here today."

"Your majesty will summon all the ministers to solve this matter in a while."

"You have to be prepared to answer your majesty's questions."

Li Que reminded.

"Uncle, don't worry, nephew is already prepared."

Duan Chun replied.

He now felt a little lucky. He learned from his mother yesterday after returning home.

His father had already been ordered to go to the military town outside the city.

He realized that His Majesty was going to let his father lead the troops to the western border.

So he did homework for an afternoon, just to help his father.

But he didn't expect that he went to the wrong place today and happened to encounter this matter again...

After all the officials in the hall finished reading the two letters.

For a moment, the whole hall was full of discussions.

"Your Majesty, I don't understand."

"Why does the Western Rong Kingdom want to be an enemy of our Dakang?"

"Why did the Western Rong delegation leave angrily yesterday?"

Zhongshu Ling Xiao Yi stood up and asked puzzledly.

"Yes, Your Majesty, since the founding of Dakang."

"Although the Western Rong often sent troops to plunder the western border of Dakang, they were all small-scale nuisances."

"They never dared to confront the Dakang army."

"This time, the Western Rong delegation made it clear that they wanted to be enemies with Dakang."

"They actually asked their king to send a large army to attack the western border of Dakang!"

Shangshu Ling Yan Ziqiu stood up and asked.

"It's not that they don't dare."

"But they have always been unwilling to give up!"

"They rely on their mountainous areas that are easy to defend and difficult to attack."

"If Dakang wants to send troops to pacify the Western Rong, I'm afraid it will take a long time."

"It will also consume too much military equipment and food."

"Your Majesty is only worried about the enemies in the northern border, and doesn't care about the small fights in the western border."

The doorman Zhang Ke stood up and said.

"But now, the Western Rong country wants to be an enemy of Dakang."

"What is this for?"

Xiao Yi frowned and asked.

"Father, since the Western Rong Kingdom wants to cause trouble."

"Your son is willing to recommend Duke Wu to lead the army to teach them a lesson!"

The King of Wei stood up and said.

"My dear ministers, please be quiet for a moment."

"I know you are all very curious, why did the Western Rong Kingdom suddenly want to be an enemy of Dakang?"

"Duan Chun, you caused this."

"You come and explain it to everyone."

The emperor said loudly.

"Ah... He caused it?"

All the ministers were shocked and looked at Duan Chun.
