Unparalleled Concubine

"Okay, get up and talk, and there are no outsiders."

Emperor Chengde sat back on the soft couch, squinted his eyes and said: "You are right. Things in southern Xinjiang must wait for an opportunity. I have been waiting with the late emperor for more than 30 years, but the two generations of the Li family are tight. We have not waited for an opportunity, and now we have to take the initiative to find an opportunity.”

The Seventh Prince bowed his head with awe in his heart and said, "Father means... Li Xin?"

Emperor Chengde nodded: "What do you think of Li Xin?"

The Seventh Prince still lowered his head, and replied: "Li Xin is very smart, and very capable, he is a rare talent."

"He's just like his dad."

Emperor Chengde's face was calm: "He is equally meticulous in his thoughts, and he is impeccable in his conduct and actions. It's just that Li Xin is still young, far less sophisticated than his father Li Shen."

Emperor Chengde turned his head to look at his son with piercing eyes: "He followed you, didn't he?"

The Seventh Prince wiped the sweat from his forehead, nodded and said, "It's considered a good relationship with my son, but he didn't agree to be a retainer of Wei Wangfu."

"That's his ambition."

Emperor Chengde said in a deep voice: "Li Xin is available. I feel more and more that he is the key to breaking the situation in southern Xinjiang. You should use him well."

Speaking of this, His Majesty the Emperor turned his head to look at the Seventh Prince, and smiled calmly: "Lao Qi, if you and Li Xin solve the problem in southern Xinjiang for me, this position will be yours in the future."

This sentence is like a spring thunder exploding!

In the past, the unattainable throne could only be regarded as a throne that no one was talking about, and it was the first time that it appeared so clearly in front of the Seventh Prince!

He knelt down on both knees, his voice was trembling: "Father... Royal Father, my son will definitely live up to Royal Father's expectations!"

Emperor Chengde glanced at him lightly, frowned and said: "Look at your worthless appearance, you don't have to expect too much about this matter, Li Shen is very powerful, I can't do anything about him, you two little fellows , there is little hope."

"You don't have to think too much, even if this thing can't be done, I won't blame you."

Speaking of this, Emperor Chengde suddenly remembered something, turned his head and glanced at the seventh prince who was kneeling on the ground, and said casually: "There is something to remind you, if this thing is done by luck, after it is done, your hands You have to hold onto Li Xin's pigtails, don't let Li Zhijie get away like the late emperor did."

The emperor of Chengde looked calm, as if he was talking about something that should be taken for granted: "If you can't hold it, you should kill him as soon as possible. Li Xin will not be inferior to his father and grandfather in the future. The three generations of the Li family have never left Loyal minister, Li Xin probably won't be a loyal minister."

The seventh prince knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully.

"Thank you, Father, for your teaching."

"Son... Got it."

Chapter 150 Gifts

After receiving the note from the Son of Heaven, His Royal Highness the King of Wei was working in the Ministry of War, and naturally copied it without any hindrance. The two servants of the Ministry of War nodded happily, and agreed to buy spirits for the northern frontier army first. After everything was settled, the two servants respectfully He sent His Royal Highness King Wei out of the Yamen of the Ministry of War.

After His Royal Highness King Wei left, Xie Jun, the left servant of the Ministry of War, and Chen Zhong, the right servant, looked at each other, feeling helpless.

The two of them are officials of the Ministry of War, but His Royal Highness King Qi was appointed to the Ministry of War as a minister. That is to say, no matter whether these two people are willing or not, they will be labeled as a party of King Qi to some extent. The Seventh Prince got His Majesty's note, which made them more or less worried.

The two servants turned and went back to the lobby of the Ministry of War. At this time, a young man who was not very tall walked out from the back of the lobby. The young man was sitting on the main seat in the lobby of the Ministry of War and was slowly drinking tea.

Left servant Xie Jun bent slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, the Seventh Prince is gone."

King Qi Jihuan stretched out his hand and said softly, "Show Gu the note he brought."

Xie Jun lowered his head, took out the note from Changle Palace from his sleeve, and handed it to the fourth prince. The fourth prince opened it up and looked, only to see that there were only a few words written on it.

"The king of Wei and the country contribute their strength, the Ministry of War should not make things difficult."

These few words were written by Chengde Emperor himself, the pen is vigorous, most of the important officials in the court can recognize the handwriting, Xie Jun and Chen Zhong, as the third-rank servants, naturally can't fail to recognize them.

The fourth prince slowly closed the note, handed it back to Xie Jun, and said calmly: "What is that wine that Lao Qi made, even the emperor spoke for him?"

His Royal Highness King Qi frowned slightly: "Is it really as miraculous as he said?"

Xie Shilang bowed his head and said: "Your Highness, this thing has not yet spread to the army, and we will not know what is going on for a while, but since the Seventh Prince dared to alarm His Majesty, then this matter may not be fake, otherwise a bully The Seventh Prince will not be able to bear the crime of the king."

Ji Huan narrowed his eyes.

"The crime of deceiving the king..."

After muttering to himself a few times, he looked up at Xie Jun, and said in a low tone, "Is Lao Qi's wine going to be sent to the north?"

"Yes... going to send it to General Ye Ming."

Xie Shilang's face turned pale, and he said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness, don't do anything stupid. Your Majesty has already been watching this matter, and you must not dare to do anything. If you offend His Majesty, our entire military department will be in trouble..."

Ji Huan glanced left and right, and said in a low voice: "These spirits are escorted by our military department?"

Chen Zhong, the servant on the right, nodded and said: "The military supplies are always escorted by our people."

Prince Qi's face was calm: "Can you change the package?"

Chen Zhong's face was also a little pale, he lowered his head and said: "Your Highness, it is possible to do it, but the risk is too great. If this thing made by the Seventh Prince is really useful, it will be impossible to hide it one day. If it happens There is a problem with the escort of the Ministry of War, His Majesty will definitely find out the Ministry of War, and we will still be guilty of deceiving the emperor!"

Chen Zhong bowed his head and persuaded: "His Royal Highness is now the ultimate power in the court. It is absolutely impossible to make a mistake, let alone a gambler's business, and let others take advantage of it."

The fourth prince frowned: "Could it be that the seventh child is allowed to be proud?"

"Your Highness might as well start from the source."

His Royal Highness Qi frowned.

"source?"

Chen Zhong, the right servant of the Ministry of War, lowered his head, and said, "Your officer...cough... I heard that a few jars of spirits were released a few days ago in Deyilou. In the Deyi Building, the officials estimate that the spirits in the Deyi Building and the one made by the Seventh Prince are probably a kind of..."

His Royal Highness King Qi looked up at Chen Zhong, who was nearly sixty years old, and smiled: "Chen Shilang is always strong, can Chen Shilang get some good things to make up for?"

Chen Zhong's face was reddish, he lowered his head and said, "Your Highness misunderstood, the next official is just a rumor...just a rumor."

Ji Huan stood up from his seat, and said calmly: "I only know about this matter, and the Ministry of War can do what it wants, so don't make things difficult for Lao Qi."

With that said, he stepped out of the military office.

Walking at the gate of the Ministry of War, the Fourth Prince narrowed his eyes.

This proud building seems to be the old seven's business...

........................

In the Deyi building on the other side, Zhu Rongjiu has gained a great reputation, because for three days after the notice was posted, no one could drink three bowls without getting drunk. In fact, not only no one could drink three bowls, It is extremely rare for people not to get drunk even after drinking a bowl. In three days, there was only one big man who was a military officer who did not fall down after drinking a bowl.

On the fourth day, the notice was taken down by Cui Jiuniang, and all the wealthy guests in the capital were saddened because they had no chance to sleep with the girl who picked clothes.

However, at the same time, the reputation of Zhu Rongjiu was also completely spread. On the day when the notice was released, many people asked Cui Jiuniang to spend money to buy Zhurong wine, but Cui Jiuniang refused them one by one according to Li Xin's words. .
