Chapter 202: Proceedings of the Imperial Council

"Hahaha......"

Hearty laughter sounded in the Chengqing Palace, and King Wei was full of smiles, this Xiao Ming unexpectedly gave him face today. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

He pulled Xiao Ming aside and said: "Virtuous nephew, this Cangzhou victory, the virtuous nephew should be the first merit, but the imperial uncle gave you a lot of money, food and materials, and there are some credits. “

"Uncle Three Emperors, this time my father instructed you and me to guard Qingzhou together, this credit is naturally the two of us, this time we naturally have to advance and retreat together, I don't fight with the Three Emperor Uncles for this credit, but the Three Emperor Uncles will also support me later."

"Oh? Nephew, please. "King Wei is happy, this Xiao Ming also has a request for him, so it's easy to do.

Xiao Ming smiled mysteriously, "With the intelligence of the Three Emperor Uncles, I will naturally understand later." ”

While the two were talking, Feng Deshui suddenly walked in from outside the hall and shouted loudly: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

At this time, the ministers immediately returned to their positions and stood up, while Xiao Ming and King Wei stood in the same position as the other princes.

When Xiao Ming greeted the ministers, these princes had been watching with a cold face, and after Xiao Ming came over, the princes politely arched their hands with him.

He didn't think much of the attitude of these princes.

But the same is true for the prince, he can't help sneering in his heart, no wonder they all say that this prince is mud and can't support the wall.

Empress Zhao was bent on wooing herself for him, and this prince didn't even understand basic etiquette.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Xiao Wenxuan sat down on the dragon chair, and everyone shouted long live.

The voice fell, and at this time, Xiao Wenxuan fixed his eyes on Xiao Ming.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this morning dynasty must have seen the king of Qi and the king of Wei, this time Cangzhou won the prestige of our country, so that the barbarians were embarrassed and retreated, for decades, my country of Yu has never had such a victory, this time the king of Qi and the king of Wei came to Chang'an to discuss the reward for meritorious deeds."

Xiao Wenxuan was in high spirits, looking at Xiao Ming and King Wei with a thick smile in his eyes.

King Wei's face was pale, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty, as the vassal king, it is our internal duty to defend against the enemy, and if the battle of Cangzhou was not for the full support of Your Majesty, the minister and the king of Qi would not be able to achieve the victory they have now." ”

Xiao Ming glanced at King Wei, and said in his heart that this King Wei is really old-fashioned, and he humbly praised Xiao Wenxuan at the same time.

He also said: "Uncle Sanhuang is reasonable, if the victory of Cangzhou is not for the full support of the father, the land of Cangzhou may have been divided into the territory of the barbarians, not to mention the battle of Cangzhou, and there is no such victory, so the battle of Cangzhou is said to be the work of the sons, it is better to say that it is the work of the father, although the father is in Chang'an, he is strategizing, and the decisive victory is thousands of miles away, and the respect of the sons and daughters for the father is like the surging river, endless, the great river goes east, and the mighty ......"

The ministers were dumbfounded one by one, and only Xiao Ming's scalp tingling sound was left in the entire Chengqing Palace.

On the dragon chair, the curvature of the corners of Xiao Wenxuan's mouth became bigger and bigger, and he was almost embarrassed by Xiao Ming's boasting, but I have to say that Xiao Ming's sycophants were unusual, and they sounded like articles.

"Hahaha......"

Xiao Wenxuan endured it for a long time, and finally laughed.

At this time, Xiao Ming kept his mouth shut, and compared with him, can King Wei's brain have more jokes in the science and technology library?

And the civil officials headed by Cui Hao are even more worried, they are shameless enough, but I didn't expect that there is an even more shameless one.

The crown prince and other princes were uncomfortable, this Xiao Ming didn't learn before, and he couldn't say a few words about sycophants, when did he become so powerful.

King Wei was stunned for a moment and secretly gave Xiao Ming a thumbs up.

There is no emperor who doesn't like to be put on a high hat, not to mention that Xiao Ming gave him most of such merits.

He said: "King Qi, you don't have to be too humble, although this battle was decided by me, but this battle was fought by you, in terms of merit, you are still the first meritorious, say, what reward do you want?" ”

Before coming back, he and Pang Yukun and others had already discussed this reward.

Such a merit must be a promotion plus a reward of gold and silver for an official, but for a vassal king, he must not be promoted, and this gold and silver will not be too much, and there is no point in asking for it.

Now the most important thing is to prepare for the future strategy, so he said: "Qi Qi father, sons do not want to reward, although the barbarians are defeated, but it is just a small defeat, the injury is just the skin, this future Cangzhou City is still dangerous, if you want to protect the safety of the fief of the sons, the only way to recapture the Shanhaiguan, so the sons are planning to drive the barbarians in Youzhou and other places out of the Shanhaiguan, thus cutting off the road for the barbarians to go south, but at this time, the father needs to promise the sons and daughters one thing." ”

When Xiao Ming said that he wanted to take back Shanhaiguan, the ministers immediately whispered, and many of them looked sneering.

The barbarians were not good at attacking cities, which was well known, and this victory was not only because of the defense of the city, but also because of the artillery.

But this is a different thing to fight the barbarians on the steppe.

"Whatever you do, just say it, my father will definitely agree to you if he can promise you." Xiao Wenxuan said that Xiao Ming had such ambitions, which made him happy.

"Erchen is going to establish a cavalry called Guanning Iron Cavalry, these cavalry will use the people of the former Youzhou land, in order to stimulate the morale of these soldiers to regain their homeland, Erchen has promised that if they can recapture Shanhaiguan, they will be rewarded with Youzhou land." Xiao Ming said.

As soon as Xiao Ming's words fell, suddenly a person stood up among the civil officials and said: "Your Majesty, by all means, the King of Qi has sinister intentions, and his heart should be punished, if he agrees to the King of Qi, this is equivalent to the land of Youzhou becoming the bag of the King of Qi, so that the fief of the King of Qi will become the largest vassal state of the Great Yu Kingdom." ”

"Hehe, Doctor Cui's words are really a joke, this Youzhou and other places in the hands of the barbarians are equivalent to raising barbarian soldiers and horses, even if the King of Qi can drive away the barbarians in the pass, this King of Qi is also a royal clan, which is more important, can't Dr. Cui tell the difference?"

A civil official came out of the ranks, and this person sneered at Cui Hao.

"Fang Shangshu's words are reasonable, some courtiers are just not right-minded, and sometimes they really doubt whether he is an official of my Dayu Kingdom or an official of the barbarians." Luo Quan slanted his eyes at Cui Hao and said sarcastically.

Cui Hao suddenly trembled with anger, and he said to Xiao Wenxuan: "Your Majesty, according to the news obtained from the barbarians, the King of Qi has created a weapon called artillery, this weapon is powerful for no reason, it is precisely because of this that the King of Qi will win a big victory, if he agrees to the King of Qi, the King of Qi will be like a tiger with wings after seizing the land of Youzhou, and the tail will not fall." ”

As soon as the word "artillery" came out, the civil and military ministers of the entire court looked at Cui Hao.

Xiao Ming sneered again and again, it turned out that this Cui Hao was waiting for him here.
