The first emperor died of illness, the Yuanqing empress dowager died suddenly, the new emperor was poisoned, and the king of Chu was assassinated at the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven... Each and every one of them seemed to have something to do with Wei Xiangguo, who was in power.

What's more, Wei Lang dared to openly ride the dragon chariot with His Majesty under the watchful eyes of everyone, what is it if it's not an intention to treason?The new emperor is weak, and Wei Lang's Sima Zhao's heart is probably too lazy to hide it now!

Rebellious officials and thieves will bring disaster to the country and the people.

Memorials to impeach Wei Lang were flying all over the sky, Xie Ci read the last one, threw the booklet back on the table, rubbed his sore eye sockets, "It's almost Chinese New Year, why are these old men so idle?"

Tianshu walked behind him and massaged the acupoints with moderate strength, and asked softly, "Master, do you need to tap once or twice?"

"No need," Xie Ci closed his eyes to enjoy, and said lazily, "Send someone to bring the memorial into the palace."

"Is the ticket for impeachment deducted?"

"Ship it together and put it in the most conspicuous position at the top."

"Yes." Tianshu lowered his eyes in response, he never questioned any of Wei Lang's decisions.

Xie Ci said he was sick and did not attend the several court meetings before the Chinese New Year, he was recuperating at home, and went to the palace to test Huaiyu's homework every few days.Huaiyu is still the most glittering mascot in the early court. Without Wei Lang in the early court, the deliberations are no longer the "one-word hall" of the prime minister, and the efficiency of decision-making has dropped instead. The "guard party" and "anti-guard party" quarrel all day long It's too late.

As the end of the year approaches, the most controversial issue is the northern war.

It has not been a day or two for the Huns to harass the border. In recent years, the battle situation has become more and more stalemate, especially now that the New Year is approaching. The soldiers of the Great Xia are homesick and their morale is low. The Huns are nomads. The harsh, vast and fertile Daxia is their most coveted fat, and the war is becoming more and more desperate.

Soldiers are most afraid of encountering those who are not afraid of death. The King of Zhenbei, He Zhengfeng, has delivered three documents to the central government within a month, requesting the emperor to send more troops to the northern border.

Tiger Talisman is needed to mobilize troops and horses.Half of the Tiger Talisman is in the hands of King Zhenbei, and the other half is in Wei Lang's hands—except for the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, the late emperor almost handed over half of the country to Wei Lang. Silly white sweet trust.

But the original Wei Lang, he was a peacemaker.

Xie Ci watched TV dramas before, and knew that the treacherous ministers are generally peacemakers, hello, hello, hello everyone.Wei Lang's influence in the imperial court is deep and deep, so more than half of the officials are also peacemakers.If He Zhengfeng and his He Family Army hadn't fought the enemy bravely and won consecutive victories at the border, the imperial court would probably have signed an unequal treaty with the Xiongnu long ago.

Right now, the more fierce the Huns are fighting, the more they want to make peace, and the more they insist on fighting.Without Wei Lang, the Main Harmony faction lost one of its biggest firepower points, and for a moment they were in a stalemate with the Main War faction.

As a modern young man with integrity in three views, Xie Ci certainly thinks that he should be the main battler. "But let the flying generals of Dragon City stay, and don't teach Huma Du Yinshan" is a poem he would memorize when he was in elementary school. You will feel passionate and passionate, and with Daxia's current overall strength, it is not empty to fight.The question now is, how to increase the number of troops in the northern border without breaking Weilang's character design, and at the same time increase the progress bar?

Xie Ci once healed this injury, it lasted until the Chinese New Year.

In fact, Wei Lang's physical fitness is very good, coupled with the fact that he is in the prime of life, the abdominal injury healed quickly, and although the wound looked scary, it didn't actually hurt the vitals, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to go to the ground as soon as he woke up.

However, Xie Ci still intends to pretend to be sick, and will continue to pretend.Because only in this way can he gradually reduce Wei Lang's control over the government, gradually transfer power to Huai Yu, and make Huai Yu a real emperor.

But thinking about it, it's really a bit sad that a big old man will always pretend to be Lin Daiyu in the future.

On New Year's Eve, it is customary in the palace to hold a New Year's banquet.The annual banquet is divided into external court banquet and family banquet. The external court banquet is held in the Qianyuan Hall. The emperor entertains civil and military officials, and all officials from the third rank and above must attend.Wei Lang, as a powerful minister under one person and above tens of thousands, has always been the one who dominates the stage.So when Xie Ci arrived at the Meridian Gate, he was immediately surrounded by all kinds of eyes.

Xie Ci's current appearance of pretending to be sick, in the eyes of the officials, even Wei Daxiangguo's pale complexion, sloppy footsteps, and a red auspicious suit can hardly conceal his haggard complexion.

For the first time, the courtiers who had been suppressed by Wei Lang for many years realized that this powerful minister who overshadowed the sky with one hand was not omnipotent, and he was also old.

When all the officials are assembled, the officials of Honghe Temple lead them into the Qianyuan Hall and sit according to their ranks.The process of palace banquets in feudal society was extremely cumbersome. To sum it up, you would kneel and kowtow non-stop, listen to the emperor's year-end summary, kowtow again, enjoy singing and dancing after eating, and kowtow once after watching a dance.Anyway, after kneeling till the end, Xie Ci lost his appetite in front of a luxurious dinner table.

Huaiyu was young and her voice was low, so the year-end summary of this year was read for her by the eunuch.After reading, the officials kowtowed and shouted long live three times.

The progress bar [ding——] increased by 1%.

The era that belonged to this little girl finally slowly opened the curtain.

The New Year's Eve banquet in the first year of the Yuan Dynasty was probably the most unstable New Year's Eve banquet in Daxia over the years.

Halfway through the banquet, there was a sudden commotion at the palace gate.

Tianshu didn't know when he quietly came to Xie Ci's side, knelt down and said in a low voice: "My lord, I'm here."

Xie Ci shook the amber liquid in the rhino horn glass, and looked over with the crowd who didn't know the truth——

I saw an armored soldier rushing into the main hall, his body was covered with dust and blood, and his image of being dusty and dusty was incompatible with the gorgeous and solemn palace.

Herald from the North.

"Your Majesty, the border is in a hurry, and the commander requests more troops!"

The herald knelt down and handed over a bloody document with both hands.

This is the fourth request for help that He Zhengfeng handed over to the central government within a month.

The sound of metal and stone colliding between armor and gold bricks broke the last nerve of the Central Dynasty.

The ministers were in an uproar.

The main combat factions came out one after another, either impassioned, or kneeling down with tears, begging the emperor to order troops to be dispatched.Dozens of Wuyangyang people knelt together in the center of the hall. This scene was quite shocking.

Under such an occasion and such pressure, Wei Lang could no longer remain indifferent.

Everyone focused their attention on the real ruler of the dynasty. The man sitting at the head of the officials held his wine glass and looked up at the young empress on the high platform.

After a short breath, the eunuch next to the empress waved his whisk and sang loudly: "Quite—"

The officials kowtowed and shouted three times, long live.

The war in the northern border has been spreading for nearly a year, and the court finally agreed to increase troops to support it. The officials were immersed in a high-spirited atmosphere. The king of Chu, who was sitting under the empress, suddenly got up and left the seat. kneel.

"My humble minister invites me to go out on behalf of the king!"

Looking at the slightly thin figure, Xie Ci finally raised his eyebrows slowly.

There was a moment of silence in the hall, and the ministers were a little confused when they first heard it—that idle prince, the number one dude in Beijing, just now said that he would go to the northern border on behalf of the king to fight the Xiongnu?

The emperor's personal expedition generally does not need to go to the battlefield in person. It mainly plays a role in boosting morale and boosting the morale of the army. If the emperor needs to go to the battle in person, then generally either the enemy is almost finished or our side is almost finished. The prince and prince will go out on behalf of the king It is also a truth.

But the northern border is bitterly cold, and the conditions in the army are even more difficult. It is far inferior to the prosperity and comfort of the capital. Unless it is an emperor who is particularly diligent in government, loves the people and cares about the world, ordinary emperors are not very willing to march on their own.On the other hand, the king of Chu, with his white skin and small body, who can't lift his shoulders or hands, can he really withstand the rough northwest wind?Didn't they hear it wrong?

Shen Rongyan straightened up, and said with a firm expression: "I invite you to go out on behalf of the king, and hope for your majesty's permission!"

All the courtiers heard it clearly now, and suddenly the pot exploded, looking at Shen Rongyan as if they were looking at a rare animal, but before everyone digested the news, there was another bright and long "" from the high platform. allow--"!

"Sir, thank you Lord Long En." Shen Rongyan bowed deeply.

Is that a promise?seriously?This is no joke!

All the officials cast their eyes on Xie Ci one after another, only to find that Mr. Xiangguo also looked surprised, an unexpected look.

——This is the little emperor's own promise to co-author!

However, you are not joking, the emperor's words are water poured out. The matter of Shen Rongyan marching on behalf of the emperor and leading an army of tens of thousands to support the northern border has been finalized like a child's play.

After the court banquet, there was a family banquet. The royal family was thin, and with the addition of an elderly demented empress dowager and several cousins ​​and vassals, they could only fill a table together.Strictly speaking, Wei Lang's status is not qualified to attend the emperor's family banquet, but with his status, he not only has to attend the family banquet, but also has to stay in the palace to watch the year with the emperor.

The old queen could not stay up all night, she had gone back to the palace to rest, Shen Rongyan went to the Fuhua Palace to accompany his mother Wu Taifei, who was always green and worshiped the Buddha, and the vassal kings also returned to their mansions in the capital to accompany their families. Xie Ci and Huai Yu.

Huaiyu was young and couldn't keep her age. After everyone left, she wriggled around in her seat and couldn't sit still.

"Uncle, shall we go and see the snow?" Huaiyu tilted his head to look at him, smiling.

Huaiyu had already taken off her dragon robe, and changed into a complex and elegant palace attire. A circle of fluffy white fox fur nestled against Yuxue's cute little face, making her innocent and innocent.

Xie Ci subconsciously glanced at the window and said, "It's not snowing now."

"Hey, what's the meaning of snow, I'm tired of watching it," Huaiyu pouted, "I want to go to the observatory to see the snow scene!"

The observatory is the tallest building in Miyagi. Standing on the top of the observatory, you can overlook most of the capital.It has been snowing for days in recent days, and the tops of the palaces and palaces are covered with thick snow. Every household in the capital is watching the new year. Fireworks and firecrackers have to be released on the morning of the first day of the new year. , it is indeed a good view.

Huaiyu leaned on the railing, looking at the capital on New Year's Eve with bright eyes, looking extremely happy.

"Uncle, come quickly, the scenery here is really beautiful."

"Your Majesty, the platform is high and windy, and it's easy to catch cold. Come in quickly." Xie Ting huddled in the warm pavilion and waved to her.

Huai Yu looked back at him, but did not move, the smile slowly faded from her face.Huai Yu bit her lip, and said hesitantly, "Uncle...won't you ask me?"

Xie Ci smiled slightly, and asked back, "What are you asking?"

Wei Xiang always had a serious face that was frozen three feet away, and his smile was like a blossoming iron tree. Huai Yu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "That is, the matter of sending the emperor's uncle to go to war without authorization..."

Xie Ci stood up, walked to Huaiyu, looked down at the lights of Wanjia, "After the New Year, Your Majesty will be one year older."

"……Um."

"It's good that you grow up and make your own decisions."

Huai Yu was startled for a moment, then laughed, patted his chest and let out a sigh of relief, and said, "I was scared to death, Yu'er thought she was about to be scolded!"

Xie Ci twitched the corners of his lips, turned to look at Huai Yu, and asked, "Does Your Majesty want to ask the minister for something?"

After hearing this, Huai Yu raised her head involuntarily, and met a pair of dark eyes.She panicked for no reason, and quickly turned her gaze to the fireworks that suddenly exploded in the night sky.

"What uncle said is that you haven't given Yu'er the New Year's red envelope yet! Since you said it yourself, you should give it a little thicker!" Huaiyu looked at Xie Ci again after finishing speaking, and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of apology. It looks like asking for a red envelope.

The cold wind cut his face, piercing his tender cheeks sorely, Huai Yu looked at Xie Ci, but his palms were so nervous that a fine layer of sweat oozed out.

bang——

Another huge and gorgeous firework bloomed in the sky, and then there were more and more fireworks, so many fireworks that dyed half of the dark sky as bright as day, and I don't know which high-ranking official was so extravagant.

Xie Ci took out a simple wooden lacquer box from the armhole.

The wind picked up suddenly, her long hair covered her eyes, Huaiyu couldn't see the man's expression clearly, but her heart beat faster and faster.

In the sky full of fireworks, her uncle handed her the small box and said to her: "May my emperor, my wishes come true."

【Ding----】

The progress bar jumped up suddenly, and finally stopped at 20%.

It's so tiring to pretend...it's super cold.
