Jin Feng had learned a text called "Chicken Feather Letters" in his previous life. When he first established the Zhongming Group, he jokingly called the more important and urgent letters "Chicken Feather Letters."
Xiaoyu thought it was quite interesting, so the name "Ji Feoxin" continued to be used.
Jin Feng took the note and unfolded it, and the Ninth Princess also quickly stepped forward.
Qing Xinyao and Qing Mulan, the brothers and sisters who had just come in, also pricked up their ears.
The note was sent by flying pigeon, and the content was very simple, with only two sentences.
After the Ninth Princess read it, her eyes suddenly burst out with a look of surprise, and then she raised her head and covered her mouth.
Jin Feng also clenched his fists and hammered the table hard.
Brother and sister Qing Mulan were already very curious about the contents of the letter, but seeing their expressions like this, their curiosity became even more intense.
After all, Qing Xinyao was the shepherd of a state, so the city still had this, so he refrained from asking.
But Qing Mulan couldn't help it, grabbed the Ninth Princess's arm and asked: "Wuyang, what is written in the letter? Why are you so excited?"
"The Northern Expeditionary Army has occupied Yuguan City, and the Eastern Barbarian Chanyu has been wounded and fled!"
The Ninth Princess said softly.
"The Northern Expeditionary Army occupied Yuguan City!" Qing Mulan's eyes suddenly widened: "So fast?"
Qing Xinyao's eyes also narrowed slightly.
They have all seen the combat effectiveness of the bodyguards, and they are not surprised at all that the Northern Expeditionary Army was able to recapture Yuguan City.
What surprised them was that the Northern Expeditionary Army occupied it so quickly!
Qing Mulan was surprised by the tyrannical fighting power of the Northern Expeditionary Army, while Qing Xinyao knew that things were about to change in the Dakang court!
Taking back Yuguan City is basically equivalent to taking back the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun.
This contribution is really great!
Recovering the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun is not only the lifelong wish of countless generals in Dakang, but the actual benefits it brings are also immeasurable!
That’s the Sixteenth Prefecture!
After regaining these territories, Dakang's territory expanded by almost one-third!
Although Dakang's territory extends as far south as the South China Sea, but a few hundred miles south after crossing the Yangtze River, as the mountains become more and more numerous, the population begins to decrease.
Especially after passing Lingnan, this situation became more obvious.
Among the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, a large part of the area is fertile plains that are very suitable for farming.
For such a great contribution, the emperor cannot reward him enough.
The emperor must have been sending people to pay attention to the Northern Expedition. There is no way the capital would not know about such big news.
"Perhaps we have already started discussing the reward issue at this time."
Qing Xinyao secretly speculated and looked at Jin Feng with awe in his eyes.
When they first learned about Jin Feng, Qing Xinyao and Concubine Qing had the same idea, and they regarded Jin Feng as a junior who could assist the Qing family.
But who knew that in just over a year, Jin Feng had grown to the point where he needed to look up to him.
The most important thing is that Jin Feng is not yet twenty years old this year, he is too young, and all the forces under his command are as full of vitality as Jin Feng.
Qing Xinyao knew very well that the current situation was far from Jin Feng's limit.
He didn't even dare to think about how far Jin Feng could develop in the end.
Qing Xinyao's guess was good. At this time, Chen Ji also received a battle report from the North from the Secret Service.
Chen Ji has always been a sentimental person. Now that he has fulfilled his long-cherished wish for many years, you can imagine the excitement in his heart.
Looking at the battle report in my hand, my legs became a little weak with excitement.
The eunuch Yinque who was following behind quickly stretched out his hand to hold Chen Ji's back.
Qin Zhen, who came to deliver the information, quickly lowered his head and pretended not to notice Chen Ji's gaffe, so as not to be targeted by Chen Ji when he went to court tomorrow with his left foot first.
In fact, Qin Zhen was overthinking it. Chen Ji didn't notice him at all at this time. He just looked at the battle report over and over again and kept mumbling: "That's great! It's really great!"
After chanting for half an hour, Chen Ji finally calmed down.
"Yinque, send this battle report to the Privy Council immediately and ask them to keep it properly so that nothing is lost!"
"Yes!" Yinque quickly took the battle report and prepared to send it to the Privy Council in person.
"Also, let them draft an edict. I will make Jin Feng the King of Side by Side and command the troops of the world!"
Chen Ji said again.
Yin Que was with Chen Ji almost 24 hours a day. He was considered the emperor's confidant and would never question Chen Ji's orders.
But he was still stunned for a moment.
However, he quickly came to his senses, bowed and left as ordered.
Qin Zhen lowered his head and watched Yinque leave from the corner of his eye, still feeling a storm in his heart.
What is the word "side by side"?
It can be understood literally.
That is a prince who can exist side by side with the emperor.
The official position of "Yi Zi Bing Jian Wang" is the same as the Imperial Preceptor. It is not a regular establishment of the imperial court. Most of the time, this official position is not available.
Different from the National Preceptor, the National Preceptor is, to a certain extent, a fictitious position with no real power.
But the word "side by side" is different.
In the feudal era, the king with the word "side by side" was the marshal of the country's military forces.
In addition to the imperial army surrounding the capital, King Yizijianjian has the power to mobilize all the soldiers and horses in the world!
That is truly one person inferior to ten thousand people!
Except for the emperor, there is no one in the world who can check and balance.
Therefore, there are very few kings who stand side by side in history. Each of them not only made great military exploits, but was also a trusted advisor of the emperor!
Once such an important minister appears, the balance of the court will quickly tilt.
Qin Zhen wanted to persuade Chen Ji, but when he saw that Chen Ji was already on top, Qin Zhen knew that he would definitely not listen to him, so he had no choice but to suppress this idea and prepare to let the ministers deal with Chen Ji tomorrow.
He did not believe that the ministers would allow the emergence of the king of Yizi.
Qin Zhen originally thought that the matter would not be discussed until the morning of the next day, but he did not expect that the group of confidential ministers in the Privy Council could not sit still after receiving the message from Yinque. They jointly ran to the imperial study room to ask for an audience with Chen Ji.
The leader was none other than Zhong Wuji, who was selected by the Ninth Princess and prepared to be groomed as prime minister.
At this time, Chen Ji had calmed down. Although he knew the purpose of these ministers, he deliberately pretended to be confused: "My dear friends, why are you here now?"
"Your Majesty, Yinque went to the Privy Council to convey your oral instructions, and asked us to draft an edict to confer the title of King Jin Feng on the throne!"
Zhong Wuji took the lead and said: "This matter is of great importance, and I have come here specifically to verify it!"
"I asked Yinque to go." Chen Ji nodded and admitted.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Wuji bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please think twice!"
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
Other ministers also bowed.
"Think twice?" Chen Ji frowned and said, "The Northern Expeditionary Army of the Imperial Army recaptured Yuguan City, which is equivalent to recapturing the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun. Isn't such an unparalleled achievement not qualified?"
"Of course the Imperial Advisor is qualified, but the Imperial Advisor is too young. It is really inappropriate for Your Majesty to hand over the power of the world's military forces to him at this time!" Zhong Wuji said.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Imperial Advisor is still less than twenty years old. Even if he has to be entrusted with important tasks, it would be best to wait a few more years." Another minister followed.
