Chapter 849 The Female General Who Unarmed and Married (18)
The emperor's mind could be said to be clear at one moment and confused at the other.
When it became clear, he cursed the queen more than a thousand times in his heart.
If she hadn't been such a wise woman, how could she have ended up like this?
When he was confused, he was very proud, because he not only got rid of Shi Yuan, who was a serious problem in his heart.
The prince also married Shi Jiang, the daughter of Shi Yuan, and took back the tiger talisman that could command the army of northern Shanxi. How could this make him unhappy?
Of course, because of Shi Yuan's death, he disliked Shi Jiang from the bottom of his heart.
Therefore, the prince initially treated Jiang as if he was being nice to her, but later he slowly let go of her.
Shi Jiang, who had no one to rely on, finally died in the prince's backyard due to dystocia.
All this, for the emperor, couldn't be better.
He was already wary of Shi Yuan, so how could he tolerate the prince and Shi Jiang's children inheriting the throne of their Feng family?
Now that the daughter of the Shi family is dead, the army of northern Shanxi has long been in his hands, and there is no need to worry about it anymore.
When he thought of this, the emperor couldn't help but want to laugh.
But every time he laughs, he wakes up.
Reality gave him a slap in the face, telling him that everything before was just a dream.
Whenever this happened, the emperor felt that he was worse off than dead now.
But he couldn't die, because Eunuch Fu kept asking the imperial doctors to hang on to his life.
Because the emperor was still alive, Feng Linye could only serve as the prince and supervise the country.
But continuing like this is not an option.
The courtiers in the court who originally had a glimmer of hope that the emperor would wake up finally came to Feng Linye's side as the days passed.
Even if the emperor is not dead yet, discussions have begun about Feng Linye's ascension to the throne.
Of course, Eunuch Fu did not miss any of these matters and informed the emperor of them all.
The emperor was so angry that he wanted to jump out of bed, but he couldn't do it.
The key point is that Feng Linye also appeared to be particularly filial. During his coronation ceremony, he specially moved the emperor next to the dragon throne and watched how he ascended the throne step by step and became emperor.
If he could vomit blood, the emperor would probably have to vomit a large basin of blood.
Because Feng Linye ascended the throne as emperor, Shi Jiang received the news a month ago.
Therefore, he set off for the capital almost half a month early to attend Feng Linye's enthronement ceremony.
Among a group of ministers, she was the only female. She was wearing shiny armor and her hair was tied into a high ponytail. She looked heroic.
However, these ministers were very awkward.
After all, in their minds, women should raise their children in the backyard and take care of their husbands and children.
But the one in front of me is a female evil star.
Not to mention that she still holds 200,000 troops from northern Shanxi. If someone dares to speak rudely in front of her, I am afraid that even if she draws her sword and kills the person, the emperor will not blame her in the slightest.
But when they were smiling at Shi Jiang, they felt unhappy.
Simply act as if Shi Jiang doesn't exist and don't look at her.
Because of the enthronement ceremony, Shi Jiang gave the others who followed her to the capital a break so that they could have a good time in the capital.
As for myself, it is naturally impossible for me to bring a personal bodyguard with me when I enter the palace.
As soon as the enthronement ceremony was over, Emperor Feng Linye summoned her to Chongming Hall to talk.
When the ministers saw this, they looked at each other for a moment. How could they not know that Feng Linye, the former King of Lindong and now the emperor, knew General Shi?
When they thought of their original plan, everyone's hearts suddenly became excited.
When Feng Linye waited until Shi Jiang entered the palace, he heard what the ministers outside the palace were worried about, and he immediately fell down laughing.
"Hahahaha, they thought I was a puppet in their hands! They would have sweet dreams. I'm afraid now, knowing that I have an old relationship with General Shi, they will regret it!"
Shi Jiang stood below, looking at Feng Linye who was laughing wildly with no expression on his face.
In her heart, this Feng Linye is no more stupid than the previous emperor or Feng Linqi.
If he was arrogant at this time, he might become the object of Feng Linye's fear.
Of course, even if he is not arrogant, he is probably someone Feng Linye is afraid of.
However, this does not prevent Shi Jiang from following the rules to the best of his ability.
After Feng Linye's laughter subsided and he stared at Shi Jiang with a playful face for a long time, Shi Jiang replied solemnly.
"Your Majesty is too arrogant to belittle yourself. Even if you have no past with me, you are still the king of a country. How can you be a puppet in the hands of others?"
After hearing this, Feng Linye stopped joking and looked at Shi Jiang seriously for a while.
"General Shi is a good talker. If General Shi wasn't strategizing thousands of miles away, I would have to spend a lot of energy to ascend the throne."
Shi Jiang arched his hands and didn't take advantage of it at all.
"Your Majesty's ability to ascend the throne as emperor is naturally his destiny. I just followed the trend and did not dare to take the credit."
Unexpectedly, his repeated attempts were blocked by Shi Jiang without any flaws, and Feng Linye nodded.
"Okay, you don't take credit, I understand! But, General Shi, I wonder what reward you want?"
If Shi Jiang takes the credit, it would not be an exaggeration to grant her the title of duke or king.
Since Shi Jiang does not take credit, other rewards are naturally indispensable.
"I just want to stay in Jingzhou safely, be a general who only fights on the battlefield and die for the country, and fulfill my late father's last wish."
Shi Jiang clasped his fists with both hands, knelt on one leg, and replied loudly.
Hearing Shi Jiang's words, Feng Linye was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"Okay... okay, the general is indeed serving the country and the people. He is worthy of being the daughter of General Shi and has great ambition. I promise you that as long as I live for one day, I will ensure that you can be your general in Jingzhou."
As long as Shi Jiang has no rebellious intentions, what if Shi Jiang can be a female general?
Anyway, for Feng Linye, there is no harm at all.
After all, it would be much more difficult for Shi Jiang, a woman, to rebel and become the empress than it would be for a man to lead so many troops to rebel and become the emperor.
Moreover, Shi Jiang's request was not too much. As long as she existed, he would be able to control the lives of the civil servants in the currently unstable court in the capital.
Compared to Shi Jiang, these aristocratic families made him even more afraid.
After all, not long after he became the crown prince, someone had already stuffed women into his backyard.
Now that he has ascended the throne as emperor, I believe that it will not be long before he is forced to establish a queen.
Thinking of this, Feng Linye felt agitated in his heart.
I couldn't help but look up at Shi Jiang, and when I saw Shi Jiang's bright moonlit face, I immediately felt regretful.
In fact, if Shi Jiang were made the queen, he would not be so irritable.
However, when he thought of the 200,000 northern Shanxi army in Shi Jiang's hands, Feng Linye immediately came to his senses.
A general who can lead an army is rare, but a queen who can manage a harem is not hard to find.
I'm really crazy that I would have such a thought.
