Long live the best

She tried again: "Your Majesty, the heat outside is unbearable, how about going to the bedroom to rest for a while?"

Qin Yun squeezed her tight jade legs, and laughed loudly: "That's exactly what I meant!"

Zheng Ruyu blushed, thinking of the beauty of last night, she couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation and fear.

"..."

Chapter 42

Time flies, and another seven days have passed.

Half a month has passed since Xiao Jian's Zuo camp dispatched troops to Cangshan.

It is expected to return to court in triumph this evening.

At this moment, Qin Yun was admiring the flowers in the Imperial Garden, with Concubine Xiao Shu by his side.

Today is specially to accompany her to relax. She has recovered from her serious injury and walks lightly. She is very lively and elegant among the flowers.

During this period of time, Wang Min begged to see Qin Yun many times, but Qin Yun just disappeared, as if he had put her in the cold palace.

As for Sun Changsheng, the genius doctor Sun.

In the end, he declined all of Qin Yun's good intentions and left the imperial capital.

But before leaving, he told Qin Yun that as long as Daxia and His Majesty needed him, he would come back anytime.

……

In the evening, the sky is full of sunset clouds, and the red clouds are hanging in the sky. The scenery is magnificent!

The rumbling iron hooves sounded like thunder!More than 1 people from Zuo Daying returned to the court in class!

In this fight against the bandits, Zuo Daying suffered less than five hundred casualties, which can be said to have defeated the horse bandits crushingly!

Although a small number of horse bandits are running around, they are no longer successful.

Qin Yun took all the officials out of the city to greet him personally, and set up a banquet in the Hall of Taihe to wash Xiao Jian off.

The eyes of tens of thousands of people were filled with excitement, and they all knelt down to welcome Xiao Jian!

All the way into the palace, Qin Yun held Xiao Jian's hand and walked in the front, with a bright smile, that kind look was clearly a brother, no matter who he was, many ministers were extremely jealous.

Only Wang Wei had a gloomy face, as if he had eaten a dead mouse.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony, with delicious food and wine, is particularly festive.

Qin Yun cleared his throat: "General Xiao!"

Xiao Jian immediately took a step forward and knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty! The minister is here!"

"This time Aiqing made great contributions, not to mention the suppression of the bandits, but also brought back countless gold, silver and jewels from the horse bandits, enriching the national treasury. It can be said that the merits are added to the merits."

"I intend to give you a big reward!"

Xiao Jian clasped his fists: "I don't dare to be a minister. Serving the country and the people is Xiao Jian's duty. I dare not expect anything else."

Qi Yong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, stood up and said with a smile: "General Xiao, why don't you dare to be the one, Your Majesty is a person who distinguishes rewards and punishments, since he has meritorious service, he must be rewarded."

"Your Majesty, according to my opinion, it is better to designate General Xiao Jian as Marshal of Shenwei, commanding the three major military camps of Mangshan, Guguan, and Qingping. What do you think?"

Xiao Jian wasn't particularly aware of what happened in the court, so he couldn't help but glance at Qi Yong suspiciously at this moment, thinking how could this old guy speak for him?

How did he know that in today's Great Xia, most of the important officials have surrendered to Qin Yun's command.

"Your Majesty, according to Chen, you can!"

Zhao Heng, Minister of the Ministry of War, came out and knelt in the field: "The three major military camps of Mangshan, Guguan, and Qingping are all in charge of the imperial tomb, garrison and other important tasks. For many years, there has been no suitable candidate for commanding the army. I see, General Xiao is suitable! "

Seeing the ministers jumping out to agree one after another, Wang Wei clenched his fists and his face was as gloomy as water!

Mangshan was in charge of the Imperial Mausoleum, with an army of [-], and Guguan and Qingping were the main throats of the imperial capital, each with [-] troops, so the total was [-] troops, all of whom were elite soldiers and strong generals.

With Xiao Jian being the commander-in-chief, and concubine Xiao Shu's exclusive grace from the emperor, the rise of the Xiao family is unstoppable.

Wang Wei was extremely distressed at this time, he had already suffered heavy losses during these days, hundreds of former disciples were withdrawn due to treason, and more than half of the power positions in the court were given up.

Although he wanted to hide his strength and bide his time, he knew that this was not going to work, so he made up his mind that Xiao Jian must be eliminated!

"Okay, since the ministers have no objections, then the matter is settled."

"Come here, issue an imperial decree to make General Xiao the Marshal of Shenwei, commanding the three major armies of Mangshan, Guguan, and Qingping from afar. In addition, you will be rewarded with 1000 taels of gold, [-] taels of silk and satin, and [-] pairs of jade articles of various colors!"

"This time, all levels of Zuo Daying will be rewarded for the suppression of the bandits! The Ministry of Rites will be in charge!"

Qin Yun spoke loudly and was very generous. Xiao Jian's wealth captured by the horse bandits far exceeded the reward money. The silver alone seemed to be a few hundred thousand taels!

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, various congratulations to Xiao Jian sounded.

On weekdays, many ministers who did not have a good relationship with Xiao Jian also took the initiative to show their friendship and ask for peace with wine.

Xiao Jian was taken aback by this, and looked at Qin Yun with puzzled eyes, Qin Yun only gave him a smile.

Seeing her elder brother surrounded by everyone under the hall, Concubine Xiao Shu was extremely happy, she blushed beside Qin Yun and said, "Your Majesty, my concubine thank you for your kindness on behalf of elder brother."

She picked up the wine glass and asked to toast shyly.

Qin Yun was also very happy. He smiled and pressed against her ear, and whispered a whisper.

Immediately, Concubine Xiao Shu blushed with embarrassment, her eyes dodged, and she said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, my concubine does not obey me!"

"Hahaha, come to love my concubine and drink." Qin Yun picked up the wine glass and drank it with Concubine Xiao Shu. She seldom drank alcohol, her face was flushed and very attractive.

The rewards tonight were harmonious, and no one who was not open-eyed jumped out to object.

Full of wine and food.

The reception banquet in the Hall of Supreme Harmony is coming to an end.

Concubine Xiao Shu exchanged greetings with Xiao Jian before returning to the palace, while Qin Yun called Xiao Jian to stop, and the two of them secretly visited the imperial garden at night and talked about some important affairs in the court.

A long corridor, the two sat down, and the guards walked 50 meters away.

"Your Majesty, someone dares to plot rebellion!" Xiao Jian's face was startled, and he stood up abruptly.

Qin Yun waved his hands with a smile, and said, "I've calmed down, but the mastermind behind the scenes is still at large."

There was a murderous look in Xiao Jian's eyes: "These bastards dare to use the insidious method of poisoning His Majesty while the minister is not in the imperial capital!"
