I believe that after the killing of three Jin soldiers today, the King of Jin will be quiet for a while. As long as he is not allowed to leave the capital, he will not be able to use his great abilities. The only regret is that the prince does not Cooperate with yourself, otherwise once he seizes the military power of King Jin, he will be a toothless tiger and will no longer be afraid.
Emperor Qianwen was filled with disappointment when he thought that the prince had not seen him for some days, and even in the court meeting he did not speak a tooth, as if he had become mute. He did not want to mention the prince anymore, so he asked in a different tone, "You said that when he was attacked and killed on Zhongguogong Street, the killer was very powerful, right?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. Dai Mubai's people witnessed all this. According to them, the killer is probably Shen Tuwei who has the strength of a grandmaster." When talking about this issue, Yan Fu's expression became much more cautious.
"Grandmaster Shentu's name?" Emperor Qianwen repeated it in his mind and nodded, "The Emperor's Guard came to report before, saying that this Shentu's name was used by the former Princess Di. Now it seems that it is correct. By the way, that is, However, Shen Tu took action, how was he? Was he injured?"
When he thought of a grandmaster-level attack, even he might be very passive if he was not prepared. Not to mention Shen Ao, who only had two hundred ordinary guards following him. It was lucky for him to escape this disaster.
"That's not true. I heard from Dai Mubai's report that Shen Tuwei seemed to be a little careless. He was shot from a long distance by the East Palace guards with bows and arrows when he failed to succeed. Then the two hundred guards under Duke Zhongguo gathered together. Rushing up, it is worth mentioning that among the guards of the Zhongguo Palace, the weakest one was Ming Jin, and there were also some warriors from An Jin. They relied on their numbers to temporarily hold back Shen Tuwei, and then the awakening master took action, and with it After fighting for more than ten moves, when we were losing ground, three more young men appeared, and the combined efforts of the four of them forced Shen Tuwei to give up and move away."
What Yan Fu said was wonderful, and Emperor Qianwen listened with rapt attention. "Three more young people are here? But she arranged it?"
"It should be so. I'm looking at it. It's very likely that the three of the Eighteen Snow Shadow Riders are here." Although there is no 100% confirmation, since Yan Fu can say this, it is enough to prove that he believes so. of.
"The Eighteen Snow Shadow Riders, are those just legendary people finally showing up?" Emperor Qianwen said with a sigh. This is the strongest power in Aoxue's hands, but it is a pity that he cannot use it for himself. , otherwise, he could have sent these masters to Jinzhou to assassinate the King of Jin, instead of luring people to Daliang City and trying hard to seize his military power like he is doing now.
Emperor Qianwen was naturally extremely envious of the strength of Aoxue's subordinates. But he also had a reputation for self-awareness. He knew that based on what he had done before, Aoxue would no longer trust him and would not hand these people over. Maybe Shen Ao could do it for herself. After all, he was her son and her only son.
"Hey." With a sigh, Emperor Qianwen regretted his previous attitude towards Shen Ao, especially when he was imprisoned in the sky prison, and even asked Yan Fu to torture Shen Ao in order to obtain the secret of Tianlei. Otherwise, There will still be a trace of affection, but now everything is hard to say.
"This treacherous son will cause trouble." Emperor Qianwen couldn't help but sigh.
What he was talking about was Shen Ao. He had already supported him very much. He allowed him to take over the country and make a fortune in a prosperous manner. He also spent money on food and drink as a man above others. He was originally good, but he wanted to mess with some prince. Because of the intervention of his mother. When the prince of the dynasty was injured, he, as the emperor, had to punish the perpetrator, right? That's why these troublesome things arose.
Blindly blame Shen Ao for causing trouble and loving to get into trouble. Emperor Qianwen never thought about his fault. If he could better protect Shen Ao and protect him, wouldn't Aoxue love Wujiwu and borrow him when the time comes? What big deal does the manpower in our hands matter? Now it's better. The idea of using these experts is completely useless. This thought can be completely let go.
Emperor Qianwen, who was still thinking about it, unexpectedly heard Yan Fu beside him say: "These masters cannot be used by your majesty, but they can be used by Duke Zhongguo. As long as your majesty is willing, you can let Duke Zhongguo ask for help from the masters. In this way , we can still achieve the emperor’s goal.”
"Huh?" After hearing Yan Fu's words, Emperor Qianwen, who had already given up the idea, was stunned at first, then understood the meaning of Yan Fu's words, and immediately said with bright eyes, "Not bad, hahaha, Yan Fortunately, you think things through very carefully."
"This slave only thought of it after being reminded by Your Majesty. It's all thanks to Your Majesty's blessing." Yan Fu dared to take credit, and he immediately slapped him back.
"Hahaha, okay, I am well aware of your contribution. In this way, I will immediately pass on my oral instructions. I am very pleased that Zhongchenghou is dedicated to serving the country. I will reward him with a pair of jade Ruyi and allow him to ride horses in Daliang City; Zhao If the concubine is virtuous and meritorious in raising a prince and princess, she will be promoted to a noble concubine. After the harem is registered, it will be announced to the world."
In order to ease the relationship with Shen Ao, Emperor Qianwen issued two decrees in a row, both of which were the people with the closest relationship with Shen Ao. I believe that after this move, the relationship between him and Shen Ao will ease a lot, and once the time is right, When the time comes, he will try to ask the other party to mobilize the Eighteen Snow Shadow Cavalry under Aoxue for his own use to eradicate dissidents.
...
In Xianweiju, Shen Aozheng was having a good time with his uncle, Qin Qi and others, and when they were getting closer, the emperor's decree to reward Zhongcheng Hou arrived.
When everyone knelt down to receive the order and heard that Marquis Zhongcheng could ride horses in Daliang City, Qin Qi and others were filled with envy. According to the laws of Daqian, military commanders can ride horses, but the so-called riding and civil servants walk in sedan chairs. There is no difference, even if you walk faster, you may be criticized by others and impeached by other courtiers. After all, Daqian also implements the policy of suppressing military force with civil servants, and civil servants cannot see the arrogance of military commanders.
It's different if the horse is allowed to ride. Since the word "long" is highlighted, it means that as long as Marquis Zhongcheng is happy, the horse can ride as fast as he wants. As long as it doesn't hurt anyone, no one can say anything.
"Hehe, hehehe." After his eyes glanced at Shen Ao inadvertently, Marquis Zhongcheng understood that he was in Shen Ao's favor. The emperor must have heard about the Xueying Eighteen Cavalry and was jealous of these masters. Interested, this was because he wanted to get closer to Shen Ao, so he adopted a roundabout policy.
Shen Ao didn't know this. After all, his life experience was still very secret from the outside world. No one knew about it except a few people.
Not knowing his identity, Shen Ao was sincerely happy for his uncle. In a certain sense, as his uncle became stronger, he would also become stronger. This is the principle of a rising tide lifting all boats.
The happy Shen Ao asked someone to bring some silver to reward the eunuch who delivered the message. The eunuch took the reward with a smile and said, "Thank you Duke Zhongguo and Marquis Zhongcheng for the reward. We will go to the palace to spread the news next." , I’m afraid you two don’t know that Concubine Zhao has been promoted to a noble concubine.”
"Oh? Could you please say it again?" Shen Ao thought he didn't hear clearly and asked anxiously.
"Mr. Zhongguo, our family said that the emperor named Concubine Zhao as a noble concubine. From now on, there will be no Concubine Zhao in the palace, only Concubine Zhao." The young eunuch chuckled. He naturally knew the close relationship between Shen Ao and Concubine Zhao. The reason why I say all this just to ask for more reward money.
Sure enough, Shen Ao burst out laughing after hearing the truth. Then he waved his hand and asked someone to bring another plate of silver. There was a thousand taels of silver and he rewarded it to the eunuch who sent the message. The little eunuch was so happy that he kept bending over and saying all kinds of auspicious words. Shen Ao could even recite poems and listen to them if he wanted.
Money can help you, don’t let me deceive you!
...
Juhe Palace.
The decree has been issued, and all the eunuchs and maids in the palace are looking very happy, and they are all in high spirits, enjoying the joy with their master.
Concubine Zhao, no! She should be called Concubine Zhao now. She also had a happy face at this time and was accepting the congratulations of the sixth prince Tang Jia, the fifth princess Tang Min, who had returned from the Royal Academy.
A son and a daughter knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Concubine Zhao respectfully. Then they raised their heads and said, "Congratulations, concubine. Congratulations, concubine."
Especially the sixth prince Tang Jia, he was even proud of himself. Since his mother is a noble concubine, his status will naturally rise. If he wants to compete for a big position in the future, he will have more confidence. One day, his mother can even become an imperial concubine. , then you are one step away from the queen, which means you are also one step away from the position of prince, right?
Since ancient times, the mother is more valuable than the son, but there are also cases where the son is more valuable than the mother. No matter how you say it, it is absolutely a great thing to be promoted from a concubine to a noble concubine, and it is worth celebrating happily.
"Okay, okay, let's all get up." Concubine Zhao's face was filled with a smile. Although it was said that she had given birth to an heir for the emperor, it was only a matter of time before she was promoted to a noble concubine. But everything is subject to change, who knows What might happen next?
To put it bluntly, if the emperor encounters an accident and disappears, wouldn't her position as a concubine never change? Such things have happened in history.
Now it's okay, from a concubine to a noble concubine, and also registered in the register, this is something that the entire army recognizes, so we are not afraid of any surprises.
Seeing her son and daughter stand up in front of her, Concubine Zhao couldn't help but think of Shen Ao. Unfortunately, it was too late today and it was not suitable to enter the palace. Otherwise, she would have listened to Shen Ao's congratulations to her.
After becoming a noble concubine, she had more confidence. If something happened in the future, it would not be so easy for others to confine her in the palace. Concubine Zhao couldn't help but look at the bright moon in the sky, thinking silently in her heart, " Sister, now that I have become a noble concubine, I will be able to help Aoer more in the future to ensure that he will not be bullied by others at will, so you can rest assured."
