Chapter 409 Want to dig a hole to bury me(1/2)
Five Regions Palace, in the study room in the afternoon, brewing a pot of tea.
Just after noon, the great eunuch Yan Wuxue brought his husband to the palace and hurried all the way to the outside of the emperor's study.
The gentleman who walked into the room saw the emperor's feet soaked in a slightly hot basin. Looking at the gentleman who was pushed out, the emperor smiled and said: "The great victory in southern Xinjiang, I must invite you over for a drink."
The gentleman was stunned, looked at him and asked with a smile: "The chief manager would have guessed it when he went to pick me up, otherwise he would have called me over to watch you wash your feet without letting anyone sleep in the middle of the day."
"Would you like to try this ginger-soaked potion, which can remove the cold and is very comfortable. Can I have someone give you a bucket?" The emperor looked at his husband and smiled.
The husband looked at him and shook his head: "You can enjoy this by yourself. If you want to have fun with me, just go home."
The emperor looked at him and smiled: "You are really a person who enjoys everything!
"What I can't figure out is how they can win this uncertain war in this deep winter with ice and ice?" The gentleman looked at him and asked in a solemn voice.
Seeing that his husband was not confused, the emperor sighed and replied: "I guess the grassland tribes still don't understand this matter. If they can figure it out, I can figure it out too. You'd better figure it out for yourself.
Let’s read the battle report!”
After speaking, he handed the battle report in his hand to Mr.
The husband took the battle report and lowered his head to read it. As he read it, he was thinking about the plot in the battle.
After a long time, he raised his head slightly and took a deep breath.
Said: "Ye'er and the others caught the grassland tribes by surprise. They expected that the soldiers in southern Xinjiang would not dare to attack in winter, but they just launched the attack on the coldest day. I said, this country I found for you
Master, are you satisfied?"
The emperor was just soaking his feet comfortably, and was startled after hearing what the gentleman said.
Said: "This is not only satisfying, I can't think of how to reward him. Your precious disciple really gave me a big surprise!"
The teacher glanced at him and said with a faint smile: "We agreed at the beginning that after this war is over and all your troubles are taken care of, Ye'er will go back to Prajna Temple to practice. What reward does he want from you?
use?"
The emperor took the towel from Yan Wuxue's hand and wiped his feet.
Looking at the gentleman, he smiled bitterly and said: "A war report from southern Xinjiang has broken the tranquility in the imperial city. It is estimated that once the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty get the news, they will not be able to sit still."
"What, are you afraid that his great achievements will shock the master?" The gentleman put down the battle report and said with a smile.
"How is it possible? I already told you to take this seat, but you refused, okay?"
After wiping his feet, the emperor pointed to the teapot on the table and said with a smile, "Here, have a drink while it's hot."
The gentleman poured three cups of tea with a smile. He looked back at Yan Wuxue and said, "There are no outsiders here. There is no need to be so miserable. Come sit down and have a drink."
Yan Wuxue was stunned and couldn't help but look up at the emperor.
The emperor was also stunned, and then laughed loudly: "In this world, you and I are kings and ministers, but in a few days, after you and I ascend, we will be brothers. Sir, you are right. There will be no outsiders here, so there is no need to guard that."
Excuse me, sit down."
Yan Wuxue paused for a moment, then pulled up a stool and sat down next to the gentleman.
He handed the emperor a cup of hot tea and said with an embarrassed smile: "Aren't you two embarrassing this old slave?"
The husband smiled and said, "I never thought you were his slave. I guess he does too. It's just your own opinion."
When the emperor heard this, he took a deep breath and said: "I have been focusing on cultivation these years and have wasted a lot of government affairs. Thanks to you watching over it for me, it's hard for me to make things difficult for you."
The gentleman did not answer the emperor's words, but pointed to the battle report on the table and said, "How do you want to handle this matter?"
"The rewards for the soldiers in Southern Xinjiang will be based on what the boss reports. After all, he is the generalissimo there and knows the specific situation. It's just that the matter of the national division is not easy to handle."
"That's also your own business!" The gentleman looked at him and laughed, with a proud look on his face.
The emperor looked at the smiling gentleman and sighed, then continued.
"No reward is not enough to stimulate the fighting spirit of the soldiers in southern Xinjiang. If you and the Imperial Master are rewarded, they are not happy. According to his wishes, even his parents will not accept the reward. This really makes me embarrassed."
The gentleman picked up the tea cup and blew gently without making any sound.
Yan Wuxue, who was holding the tea cup, looked at the emperor after hearing this and asked softly: "The old slave said that the Imperial Master has two younger sisters. The little girl Mu Mu has made great achievements in the southern Xinjiang and shot her.
A guard at Xiaguan!"
The eldest eunuch looked at the husband and the emperor while listening, and said without leaving any trace.
"Oh, I forgot about this. The eldest prince specifically asked for merit for the little girl Mu Mu. If he doesn't need the imperial master, then let's give the reward of the imperial master to his two sisters. What do you think, sir?
"
The emperor looked at Mr. and laughed.
"Your Majesty's love is a blessing for these two little girls. But don't grant them official positions. After all, both girls are focusing on cultivation right now. Besides, Xiaoxue is still young and it's not suitable for her to be given an official position. The same goes for Mu Mu. Her cost is too high.
How can you be a female general next to Ye'er? This eldest prince is also messing around."
The gentleman pointed at the battle report and laughed angrily.
Yan Wuxue half raised his head and took a peek at the emperor's face.
Carefully said: "Old slave, it seems that who wouldn't want to stand out and honor the ancestors? It's just that the two girls are too young at the moment... they are not yet deeply involved in the world, why not make the two girls princesses? This will not embarrass the courtiers, but also
The Imperial Master can accept it, and the two girls will be happy."
"That's what I mean too. What do you think, sir?"
The emperor smiled slightly and said: "This is just a reward in name only. I just allocated some money and materials from the treasury. I can definitely stop those people's mouths...Old Yan, you understand what I mean."
Yan Wuxue didn't know how to answer, so he could only remain silent.
The gentleman was silent for a long time, and suddenly said with a smile: "This is good, it can make the two girls happy for a while. From now on, they will have an extra status when they walk in the five realms. No one in the world will dare to bully them. This
It actually solved a problem for Ye'er."
"In this case, let's make Mumu the Princess of Nanyun and Miss Xiaoxue as the Princess of Ruyi, who will be the companions of my daughter." The emperor said with a smile, stroking his hands.
Seeing that the emperor agreed, Yan Wuxue couldn't help but take out a handkerchief and wipe his forehead.
The husband looked at the two of them and smiled silently.
Seeing that the battle report was settled, the emperor picked up a letter from the desk and said with a wry smile: "Now that we have talked about the happy things, let's talk about the troublesome ones. I just received the memorial from the emperor's uncle from the Royal Academy. Sir, please read it.
look."
When the teacher heard this, he couldn't help but frown and asked: "What do you want me to see from your college's memorial?" Although he said this, he still accepted it.
"Do you think the emperor's uncle and that old guy Nalan are deliberately causing trouble for me? Is this battlefield in southern Xinjiang a place where hothouse sweethearts can go? Not to mention killing people, I guess most students haven't even killed chickens. Pass!"
The emperor couldn't help but feel a little angry.
Yan Wuxue was startled. He knew that he could no longer remain silent at this time and had to put out the fire. He quickly asked: "Your Majesty, what is the reason for this?"
The gentleman smiled and said, "Xia Yuan and old man Nalan didn't do this. The students in the college couldn't sit still and wanted to go to the battlefield. They were afraid of taking responsibility, so they threw this package into the palace."
As the teacher said, no matter how smart Xia Yuan and Nalan Kunxuan are, they will not take this idea.
There is no benefit to the two of them if this is done well. If it is not done well, if there are casualties, the dignitaries in the imperial city will be offended to death.
The emperor looked at the two of them with half a smile and said: "However, they both made a mistake in their calculations. Do they think that I grew up eating tofu? They think they are smart and want to play me like a monkey!"
Yan Wuxue half-raised his head and asked carefully: "How does Your Majesty plan to deal with this matter?"
The emperor looked at Mr.
The gentleman shook his head.
The emperor glared at him, pondered for a long time, looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "These two old guys want to dig a hole to bury me, let's just dream about it. After finishing the decree, all students who want to go to the battlefield in southern Xinjiang must leave the imperial family. Academy!”
"As an individual, I will be incorporated into the army that is about to rush to Southern Xinjiang. I will start as a soldier at the lowest level. Only if I make meritorious service on the battlefield will I be rewarded. However, the casualties will be compensated in the same way as the soldiers of Southern Xinjiang!"
Yan Wuxue raised his head and looked at the Emperor, too frightened to speak.
When the husband heard this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He raised his fingers and said with a smile: "I thought those two old guys were ruthless enough, but I didn't expect you to be more ruthless than them. You are just a bunch of kids from the academy who want to give up the idea of going to the battlefield."
The emperor looked at Yan Wuxue, who was holding back his laughter, and the laughing gentleman, and sighed softly.
Said: "I don't want this either. If you hadn't allowed the Imperial Master to go to the battlefield with confidence, I would have killed him and not sent him to southern Xinjiang. What's more, there are a bunch of children in the imperial city. Isn't that a relative of the emperor?"
"This is true. If they go, they will cause trouble to Ye'er and the others! It's better to stay in the academy." Xingsheng replied in a deep voice.
"They have three shortcomings on the battlefield. How do you want me to explain it to their families? Besides, this war has not yet reached the point where all the people are soldiers."
"According to the boss, the war in southern Xinjiang is all under the control of the national division, so there is no need for them to stir up trouble?"
The emperor looked at his husband and Yan Wuxue, said seriously, and then frowned.
At this point, the gentleman stopped smiling.
Looking at the emperor, he said solemnly: "It's really not okay for you to mention this matter. Ye'er gets along well with the eldest prince in southern Xinjiang, which is good for the entire war situation. If there are a bunch of masters who are causing trouble all the time, then If the eldest prince is not annoyed, I'm afraid Ye'er will be annoyed to death."
"According to the decree I just mentioned, I will read it out when I go to court tomorrow. I wonder which little guy is willing to leave the superior training environment of the Royal Academy and go to the difficult battlefield in southern Xinjiang to work hard!"
"If there are really one or two, I will obey him. This can be regarded as a bad breath for the royal family!" The emperor looked at Yan Wuxue and said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will handle it shortly." Yan Wuxue stood up and said back.
"I will give the Imperial Preceptor's house a reward of 100,000 gold coins and 100 pieces of brocade. I will send it over today to give the Imperial Preceptor's family a surprise." The Emperor continued.
