After all, the young emperor was a man who played with people's hearts, and he had eyes and ears. He discovered that Taishi He actually had the son of the rebel leader in his hands. He still didn't understand why the rebellion in the south was most likely related to Taishi He.
It's just that he couldn't understand why Grand Master He was already so powerful in the Wu Dynasty. What other benefits would allow him to do this?
Since he couldn't figure it out, he didn't dare to touch Grand Master He for the time being. After all, after Qin Siyuan left, if he captured Grand Master He again, the court would be in chaos.
At this special moment, he really didn't dare to take risks, so he decided to take the opportunity to call Qin Siyuan back.
However, at this time, Qin Siyuan was already helpless, but in the face of the emperor's summons, he still came to court.
The emperor was relieved to see that Qin Siyuan was willing to go to court. He could feel that since Qin Siyuan entered the court, the whole court seemed to have come to life.
He felt that he had done the right thing, so he quickly said excitedly, "Prime Minister Qin, it's great that you can come back. How do you think we should respond to the request of Fake Ming and Treason?"
Qin Siyuan sighed. He had already thought about it along the way. The only way now was to delay time and make more powerful firearms.
So, he immediately thought of the little emperor and gave a salute, and then said with difficulty, "Your Majesty, what we have to do now is to agree to Puppet Ming's request, stabilize Puppet Ming's army, step up defense, and at the same time vigorously develop firearms.
, improve the combat effectiveness of soldiers."
Seeing what Qin Siyuan said, Taishi He said dissatisfiedly, "Prime Minister Qin, Bao Wenhan has made great contributions to our court. If it weren't for him, it would be impossible for General Dong to capture Lin'an City. What's more, he did it for
To save our lives, we also handed over Fang La’s son, we can’t just kill the donkey!”
Qin Siyuan had been fighting with Grand Master He for so long, and of course he knew that Grand Master He was telling the officials of Grand Master He's group.
Although he hated Grand Master He, this was not the time for internal fighting. He could only say patiently, "According to the information I received, someone captured Fang La's son and forced him to rebel."
After hearing this, Master He quickly glanced at the emperor, and then said quickly, "Ms. Qin, why do you say that? Do you have any evidence?"
Qin Siyuan didn't know that he was right. He thought that Grand Master He didn't understand, so he explained patiently, "Originally, Fangla had many Manichaean followers. If it develops in a few more years, it will be a serious problem. He
There is no time to rebel at this time."
When Master He heard what Qin Siyuan said, he immediately took the opportunity to say, "According to what Prime Minister Qin said, we should not hand over Bao Wenhan. If he hadn't let Fang La rebel in advance, it would be difficult to eradicate him if it gets bigger in the future.
, this is also a credit."
Qin Siyuan now saw that Master He was pretending to be confused, but he still had to cooperate with the show. After all, the current emperor liked to watch this show.
He looked at the emperor and said helplessly, "No, the grand master was wrong. If Fang La had rebelled later, this situation would not have happened at all, because we have stabilized the situation in the north and can concentrate on quelling the chaos.
Already."
Master He really couldn't continue the performance at this point. He felt that he was worthy of Bao Wenhan and could reassure the people who accepted him. He quickly looked at the emperor as if begging and said, "Your Majesty, you can't hand over Bao Wenhan."
ah!"
The emperor was a little suspicious after being told by Master He. Could it be that Fang La's son was secretly captured by Bao Wenhan?
Thinking about it, it's really possible. After all, as Grand Master He, he shouldn't be involved with Manichaeism.
Seeing that Grand Master He was defeated now, the emperor subconsciously wanted to balance the situation, so he quickly smoothed things over and said, "Xiang Qin is right, he handed over Bao Wenhan and Fang Tianding to the pseudo-Ming. I will reward his family generously. What does the Grand Master think?"
Sample?"
Master He pretended to be helpless and nodded, then quickly stepped back, looking distressed.
Seeing Taishi He's well-behaved look, the emperor was very satisfied, so he turned to Qin Siyuan and said, "Prime Minister Qin, you still need to worry more about the gunpowder. When we are fully prepared, we will destroy the bandits."
Qin Siyuan actually had no idea, but he knew that the emperor was timid and had finally supported the attack. He was afraid of retreating again, so he replied very respectfully, "My lord, I will definitely live up to my trust."
…
Yang Xiao took control of the prefectures and counties east of Yangzhou and began to defend them on the spot, organizing defenses on the spot to prevent the Wu Dynasty from counterattacking.
Wu Chao did not dare to delay, fearing that Ming Dynasty would continue to attack, so he sent the people back quickly.
After receiving Fang Tianding and Bao Wenhan from Wu Dynasty, Wang Yue seemed to be very generous and canonized Fang Tianding as King of Huainan, and asked Fang Xifu to replace Yang Xiao and lead his old subordinates to station there.
You must know that Fang Xifu still has more than 100,000 troops in his hands. Wang Yue is not at ease if he is in the south of the Yangtze River. They are all concentrated in Chuzhou and Yangzhou to the north of the Yangtze River. They have a grudge against the Wu Dynasty and can still share the defensive pressure. It's simply
It's the best of both worlds.
…
Seeing that the peace talks were promising, the Ming Dynasty also began to build the capital, Jinling.
When they learned that the capital of the Daming Kingdom was Jiangning Prefecture, everyone in the Wu Dynasty was a little shocked. Who else would set the capital under the enemy's military peak?
But they had no choice but to watch helplessly as Ming Dynasty merged the original Zhenzhou Chuzhou and Hezhou into Jinling, and did not dare to make any big move.
…
After the peace talks, the Ming Dynasty, Wu Dynasty and the Liao and Jin Dynasties in the north both entered a brief period of peace, each licking its own wounds.
However, everyone knows that this is just the calm before the storm. When the next war starts, at least one of the four countries on the continent will disappear, or even be unified.
It's just that until the end, no one is sure that they will be the winner, and the four countries are preparing for the next battle.
…
Of course Wang Yue knew this, but he was not willing to let himself get involved in endless government affairs, so he handed over the government affairs to the cabinet.
The so-called cabinet refers to the several old subordinates of the Jiang Zuo Alliance who discussed how to handle things when Wang Yue was away. Plus a few newly joined ministers, they were the children of several well-reputed aristocratic families headed by the previous family.
Although the level of these subordinates is not very high and they all need to learn, for example, now they are more pragmatic and will come to Wang Yue for anything that cannot be discussed, which makes Wang Yue feel more at ease.
The new people who joined the cabinet were surprised that the man who was noisy every day could always handle the Ming Dynasty's government affairs well.
Due to their upbringing from aristocratic families, they are slowly integrating into it, but they have not immediately spoken out to participate. They need to understand the governance situation before deciding how to participate.
When Wang Yue was free, he wanted to take a look around and study why Jiangnan was so attractive to Qianlong.
But before he left the palace, news came from the Su family that Ning Yi, who was being taken care of by Xing'er, actually woke up.
Wang Yue did not hesitate and immediately took Su Tan'er to the Su family.
Hearing that Wang Yue had arrived, everyone in the Su family hurriedly went outside to greet him, which reminded Wang Yue of how he didn't get such treatment when he married Su Tan'er.
However, Wang Yue didn't care about this. After all, this was a normal human relationship, and he had already seen through it.
He quickly came to Ning Yi's courtyard. He wanted to see who was coming through time at this time.
So, Wang Yue left Sutar to reminisce with the Su family, and took Yang Yao into the courtyard alone.
When I came to the courtyard, I saw a skinny man sitting there in the pavilion of the small courtyard. From the appearance of this man, I could vaguely see that he was the Ning Yi who was knocked unconscious.
Seeing Wang Yue come in, Xing'er quickly bowed and said, "Bless your Majesty!"
Wang Yue waved his hand casually, telling Xing'er to stand up quickly, while his eyes stayed on Ning Yi.
After all, Myolie has worked hard to take care of Ning Yi for so long, and she still has feelings for the name. Of course she doesn't want you to be accused of being polite, so she quickly tugged at the corner of Ning Yi's clothes.
Wang Yue shook his head and said nonchalantly, "It's okay, I'm not that stingy person. If you don't want to be greeted, just don't see me. I just don't know what I should call you now?"
Ning Yi raised his eyebrows and immediately understood what Wang Yue meant. He glanced at the nervous Xing'er and said helplessly, "Ning Yi, Miss Xing'er told me this name."
Wang Yue nodded and signaled Myolie to step aside for now. Then he frowned and asked, "Do you know me?"
Ning Yi didn't hide anything. He said with some emotion, "I know you. You saved me back then. Then there was some confusion. I don't know where you went. But I didn't expect that you traveled to ancient times and were still doing well.
Got up."
Wang Yue shrugged and said as if he didn't care, "Now that I've traveled through time, I have to find something to do. I didn't expect that I saved your life on a whim, but instead sent myself to ancient times."
Ning Yi, also known as Jiang Haochen, took a deep look at Wang Yue and knew that Wang Yue was testing him, so he said helplessly, "No need to test me, you didn't save me on a whim. When you left the parking lot,
You just followed me. Without your help, I wouldn't have had the chance to get the company back."
Wang Yue saw that Ning Yi still remembered this detail, but he still didn't believe it. After all, anyone could know what happened as long as they retrieved the surveillance of that day.
So, Wang Yue looked at the chessboard on the table, as if he was playing backgammon. He glanced at Ning Yi with some surprise, and then said calmly, "Are you interested in playing a game?"
Ning Yi did not refuse, and decisively separated the chess pieces on the chessboard, and then said with a smile, "You are my benefactor, so you want to play this game first."
Wang Yue didn't refuse, so he took a chess piece and placed it on it casually.
Wang Yue was already familiar with the Zhenlong chess game. While playing chess, he used his inner strength to transform the chess pieces on the chessboard. It didn't take long for a formation to be set up.
The moment the formation was formed, Ning Yi's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes seemed to see something unforgettable through the chessboard.
Wang Yue drank tea calmly while listening to Ning Yi's incoherent words, and confirmed that the name was Jiang Haochen.
What surprised Wang Yue was that after he disappeared, Jiang Haochen's opponent was trampled to death because someone fired a gun and caused chaos at the scene before the police arrived.
Wang Yue thought of countless possibilities, but the only one he didn't expect was that Jiang Haochen's opponent Tang Mingyuan would die in this way.
And Ning Yi also successfully used his business talent to take back the Ningyuan Group after Jiang Haochen's death.
As for Jiang Haochen's glorious history, Wang Yue was unwilling to hear it. He immediately put down the tea cup, took out a chess piece from the chessboard, and released the formation.
After Wang Yue waited for Ning Yi to wake up, he put down the chess piece in his hand, and then urged, "Brother Jiang, it's your turn."
Jiang Haochen took a look at the chess pieces on the chessboard. They were indeed what they looked like just now. He didn't have a watch or mobile phone on him at the moment, and he didn't know how much time had passed. He thought it was because the body was in poor physical condition, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
Continue to get up with Wang Yue.
Seeing that Jiang Haochen didn't notice, Wang Yue started playing chess seriously. He had to delay the time so that Jiang Haochen didn't know how long it had passed.
While playing chess, he said casually, "That Tang Mingyuan has also traveled through time, right?"
As expected, Ning Yi's attention was diverted again. He asked suspiciously, "Why did you say that?"
Wang Yue shrugged and said with a nonchalant look, "When I went to Lin'an City, I found that Miss Lou's business model of cloth shop there was very modern. It didn't look like something that ancient people could have thought up.
It couldn't have been thought up by a boudoir girl."
Seeing what Wang Yue said, Ning Yi asked with some confusion, "But why is it Tang Mingyuan?"
Wang Yue put a chess piece on the chessboard and said casually, "You may not know that Fang La suddenly rebelled some time ago, but he was blackmailed, and the person who blackmailed him turned out to be the Taoist Prince.
A person who is a teacher.”
After listening to Wang Yue's words, Ning Yi frowned and said, "Are you saying that Master He is related to the suspicious time traveler?"
Wang Yue looked at the pensive Ning Yi, shook his head and said, "No, when Fang La rebelled, the Five Dynasties happened to prepare an army of 200,000 to attack the Liao Kingdom and recapture the sixteen states of Yanyun."
Ning Yi was always good at calculations. After placing the chess pieces on the chessboard, he frowned and said solemnly, "It means that Master He is from the Liao Kingdom or the Jin Kingdom in the north."
Wang Yue nodded, and continued to guess, "I guess that Tang Mingyuan also traveled to Jiangnan. After all, we originally had trouble here, but after he stayed in Jiangnan for a while, he caught up with someone
The line goes north."
After hearing what Wang Yue said, Ning Yi continued his analysis and said, "I remember that my college classmate Tang Mingyuan is a Manchu. So, he went to the Kingdom of Jin."
Wang Yue shook his head and nodded again. He did not expect to fool Ning Yi casually. The two of them discussed it, but it seemed that it was indeed true.
So, he had to be cautious and frowned and said, "Our fusion ability is so strong, I don't think he wanted to go to the Kingdom of Jin from the beginning. He just happened to meet someone from the Kingdom of Jin to cooperate with Grand Master He to do something in Jiangnan."
It was a small move, and then I followed the other party northward."
Ning Yi also nodded and said in agreement, "This is very consistent with his character. Even if he is very willing, he still has to pretend to be forced."
Wang Yue twitched the corner of his mouth. These two classmates fell in love and killed each other this time. He said helplessly, "So, it will be more difficult for me to unify the country."
Ning Yi also learned from Myolie what Wang Yue had done recently. He looked at Wang Yue with some gloating and said, "Travelers hate meeting time travellers, let alone those who are on opposite sides. It seems that this game is between you and
