The next day, morning.
Now that he has returned to Kyoto and has joined the Ministry of War, Tang Ji naturally cannot take leave every day and miss the morning court meeting, so he got up early today, followed Li Yu into the palace after breakfast, and there was still time before the court meeting.
For a while, the two of them were walking slowly on the palace road leading to the Golden Palace.
"I heard that you were teaching the art of war as soon as you entered the Ministry of War yesterday?" Li Yu held the bun in his hand, took a few bites and looked at Tang Ji.
After listening to his words, Tang Ji couldn't help but think of the scene in the afternoon when Deng Furong and Xia Tong were pointed at the nose and scolded by Wang Xinfu, the Minister of the Ministry of War. Although the Ministry of War had always been wearing the same pants as Li Xian, if he wanted to bully him, he had to think twice.
Shaking his head, he avoided the topic directly. Looking at the loose team in front, he couldn't help but ask: "Why are there so many people here today?"
Li Yu took a bite of the bun and then replied: "Oh, this year's Great Court will carry out small reforms in the morning court. Except for some necessary yamen, officials below the fifth rank do not need to go to court."
Tang Ji suddenly understood and nodded. It was originally the sixth grade, but now it has been improved to the fifth grade. No wonder there are so many fewer people all of a sudden!
After the two of them walked some distance away, Li Yu thought of something again and bumped into Tang Ji's shoulder: "Hey, I really want to hear a rumor that Jiang Guoren will not marry a royal family or a prince this time, but...
They are planning to marry their Princess Yao'an to you."

Tang Ji thought he heard wrongly and raised his hand to pick out his ears: "Are you sure it's me?"
"I don't know. It was Song Xiao who told me. I don't know where he heard it from." Li Yu replied smoothly. After finishing the bun in his hand, he clapped his hands and added: "Yes.
We will know whether it is true or not today. The Jiang State envoy arrived in Kyoto last night, and he should present his credentials to the court today."
Then, he touched his chin and looked at Tang Ji: "But what should I do if this is true? You and Sister Jiang are not married yet!"
Tang Ji glanced at him: "Really or not, I won't marry any princess."
Are you kidding? Let’s not talk about how deep the relationship between him and Ranran is. Even if he killed Li Wenquan in the northwest and brought so much trouble to the people of Jiang State, he would not marry a princess of Jiang State. Otherwise, it is really possible.
Tian was sleeping well, but suddenly a big hole was stabbed in his chest.
Li Yu pursed his lips and was about to continue speaking, but was interrupted by two figures chasing after him from the side.
"Lord Tang, we meet again." A thin middle-aged man greeted Tang Ji first, and then saluted Li Yu: "Jiang State's envoy Jiang Chengren pays homage to His Highness King You."
Li Yu had seen many Ningguo soldiers die at the sword of Jiangguo barbarians on the battlefield. If they were not envoys, they would have been chopped down by him long ago. But he is now the prince of a country after all, and his words and deeds represent Ningguo. Naturally,
He couldn't be so rude and replied with a slight smile: "No need to be polite."
The young master standing next to Jiang Chengren put away the paper fan in his hand and looked at Tang Ji with his broad bean-sized eyes: "So you are Tang Ji. As expected, you are as talented and cunning as the rumors say. Thank you for meeting you!
"
Jiang Chengren quickly smiled and said: "Let me introduce you, this is our third prince of Jiang Kingdom, His Royal Highness Prince Su."

Out of etiquette, Tang Ji also bowed his hands.
In this way, the four of them walked side by side, but before they had moved a few steps, Jiang Chengren looked at Tang Ji and said, "Master Tang, a few months ago you were a small county magistrate in Yingzhou City. I didn't expect that you are now a member of the Ministry of War."
Minister, the speed with which you have been promoted is such that no one else in the world can be found!"
Hearing the mockery in the other party's tone, Tang Ji replied neatly: "Master Jiang is overly praised. I can only say that it is thanks to you."
Hearing this, Jiang Chengren gritted his teeth. If it weren't for Tang Ji, his Jiang State army would have broken through the northwest defense line long ago. Now there is no need to be so humble. But in the end, he suppressed the anger in his heart and turned to smile: "Hahaha
, Mr. Tang, your good fortune is yet to come!"
For some reason, Tang Ji felt a little uneasy when he saw the other party's sudden change of expression, and couldn't help but think of what Li Yu had just said.
Afterwards, the four of them stopped chatting. Tang Cheng and Jiang Chengren were taken to the side hall to rest by the eunuchs, while Tang Ji and Li Yu stayed in the waiting area to wait.
Not long after, with the sound of "The Emperor is coming to court", hundreds of officials entered the palace one after another.
After going through a series of procedures before the morning court, Emperor Ning, who was sitting on the golden platform, looked into the palace. He was relieved when he saw Tang Ji's figure. This brat dared to be absent for no reason yesterday, causing him to waste so much time.
After a lot of time and spit, no more ink marks, I brought up yesterday's topic again: "The Royal Forest Army now has ten guards. Although they are equipped with the most sophisticated weapons and the thickest armors, due to the single training method, the physical fitness of the soldiers is uneven and they cannot display their full potential.
The strongest combat effectiveness, so I decided to merge the Changlin Army and the Qinglin Army into the 11th Guards, and use new methods to train, and then held a competition in the army to test the results. I happened to hear that General Tang Ji, the wise and brave general, had a new style.
I will leave this eleventh guard to you as to how to train troops!"
Emperor Ning said these words yesterday, and the officials also refuted them, but they were all suppressed by His Majesty, and no one spoke again today.
Tang Ji took a deep breath, then walked out of the crowd and knelt down to thank him: "I accept the decree and thank Your Majesty for your kindness."

Emperor Ning nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand for him to leave, and then discussed other issues with the officials.
About half an hour later, Tang Ji leaned sleepily against the golden pillar in the palace. Just as he was about to fall asleep, he was suddenly awakened by the eunuch's sharp and harsh voice.
"The envoy from the Kingdom of Jiang is here to see you!"
For a moment, everyone's eyes were cast outside the golden palace.
Soon, Tang Cheng came in with several envoys and knelt in the center of the hall: "Tang Cheng, the official of Jiang State, brought his envoys to pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor Ning!"
Emperor Ning snorted. Tang Ye was so generous. He actually sent his own son as an envoy. Without thinking about it, he raised his hand and replied: "Pingshen."
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor." Tang Cheng responded, then stood up, took a golden silk letter tied with a red rope from Jiang Chengren, and presented it with both hands: "This is the letter of credence written by the emperor of our country. It is hereby presented.
Leave it to His Majesty."
Bai Chang, who was standing next to the dragon chair, received the signal from Emperor Ning's eyes and quickly walked down to receive the credentials and handed them to Emperor Ning.
After briefly browsing it, Emperor Ning nodded with satisfaction: "I have read the letter of credence. Envoys, thank you for your hard work along the way!"
"It's not hard work." Tang Cheng shook his head, glanced left and right, and then said with his hands: "This war broke the peace between Ningxia and Jiangxi, causing the people to be displaced and living in dire straits. We have realized our mistakes and are willing to cooperate with you.
The State of Jiang will negotiate with the country and make compensation. In addition, in order to restore the friendship between the two countries, the State of Jiang intends to promote the friendship between Princess Yangning and the fourth prince of your country, His Highness Prince You of Qin and Jin Dynasties."

As soon as these words came out, the whole court became in an uproar.
"His Royal Highness Youwang?"
"But according to the rules, marriage should be based on seniority and juniority. His Royal Highness Prince Jin is not married yet!"
"Bah, what are you talking about? Which rule says this? I think His Highness You Wang is quite good!"
""
Tang Ji, who was pricking up his ears, couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. He knew it was a rumor that the marriage between the two countries had something to do with a minister like him. He couldn't help but glance at Li Yu who was standing aside and Song Yao who was in the opposite team.
Li Yu gritted his teeth: "If I had known earlier, I should have led my troops to fight him all the way to the capital of Jiang State!"
But before he could get angry, Tang Cheng continued to speak: "In addition, Princess Yao'an, the daughter of King Han of our country, has long admired the most talented man in your country, Mr. Tang Jitang, and took this opportunity to
I asked the Emperor of Jiang State to grant me a marriage. His Majesty felt that this was more than happy and agreed, and now the princess has arrived in Kyoto with the envoys. I wonder what the Emperor's wishes are?"
This time, many officials in the court seemed to have changed their faces.
"Nonsense, marriage between the two countries has always been a matter for the royal family. How can a mere minister from Tang Ji join in the fun!"

"That's right, Tang Ji is not qualified to get married!"
"The princess is already here. Anyway, there are quite a few marriageable princes in our country of Ning. Let her choose one and we can discuss it later."
"Your Majesty, it is not advisable for Tang Ji to marry, and I oppose it!"
"I also object to it!"
"I second the proposal!"
""
At this moment, a figure squeezed through the crowd and stood in the center of the golden palace.
"Your Majesty"
In an instant, the eyes of everyone present suddenly focused on Tang Ji, waiting for his next words.
"I don't agree either."
