over ten thousand people

At the time when Bailu was not yet shining, the first iron hoof stepped on the green grass on the river bank without a sound.The army crossed the river to purge quickly, and faintly broke out of the encirclement.Suddenly, a black-gold bright armor galloped out of the formation, standing on a high ground, looking into the distance——

Before the thousands of troops and horses, the Daiqing City Tower stands tall in the twilight of dawn.However, without the protection of the natural moat, Jiankang is already in jeopardy.

I know I'm dreaming again.It was already 13 years ago that the first emperor conquered Jiankang, the capital of the Southern Wu Dynasty, and ruled the world. I have never been to the battlefield in person, but the scene in my dream is as clear as yesterday.

Emperor Hui of Southern Wu was so stupid that his soldiers chopped off his head before the city gate was broken.Veterans accompanied by poison and wine are nothing more than a waste of loyalty.Among the dead bodies all over the ground, the young man in white stood alone.The long sword in his hand was dripping with blood, but his face was covered with a thick layer of fog, making it difficult to see clearly...

"...Your Majesty, the time has passed."

It took me three years of hard work, but I still haven't fully adapted to Liu Jin's trilling voice and his shadow bending over the screen.Fortunately, the nectarine paper on the window reflects the dim light of the night lanterns, which has not changed for more than ten years.

The blurred-faced boy flashed past my eyes, and the corners of my forehead throbbed with pain.Damn Xie Jingyu, it's okay to be a hot potato during the day, but it doesn't stop at night...

"...Your Majesty?" Liu Jin called again hesitantly.

I come back to God. "Get ready to wash up."

The golden basins of various colors were brought up like flowing water, as long and cumbersome as in the past, I couldn't help being distracted.

Three years ago, as soon as I ascended the throne, the Xiongnu invaded the country. Xie Jingyu strongly recommended Danghe as the general of the northwest.A few days ago, the good news came that the party and the front shot and killed Shan Yutaman, encircling and suppressing most of the enemy troops.The Xiongnu collapsed five hundred miles, and it is impossible to make a comeback within 20 years.

Although I knew Danghe would defeat the Xiongnu when I saw Danghe, but the person who brought Danghe to me was Xie Jingyu, and his ability to know people can't be counted as his share...

"Your Majesty, do you want to pass on the meal?"

I turned my face to the side, and Liu Jin sensibly retreated to serve vegetables.When he turned his head again, he happened to meet the person in the bronze mirror—a young man who had just passed the crown, with handsome eyebrows and fine eyes, but his expression was as indifferent and calm as a pool of stagnant water.

Every time I see this face, I can't help but think, those courtiers who keep claiming that I am wise and powerful, the real evaluation may be that they have deep scheming.

However, Zi didn't speak strangely.If I didn't have the ability to be indifferent to emotions, so that people would know what I dreamed—either it would be a big mistake or a hell, at worst, it would be unbelievable—I would have died long ago, how could I let it happen? The people of the world bow their heads and proclaim themselves ministers?

What happened in the past is not worth wasting time, and I think of Xie Jingyu's expressionless face again.As the saying goes, good things come in pairs, so I simply prepared an extra gift for him.Today's early court is the highlight, so don't neglect it when you are idle.

**

At three o'clock in Maoshi, Tai Chi Hall.

It has not been long since the world has settled down, and all the state capitals are busy recuperating, and there are not many affairs in the early court.The only thing that can be called a major event is the victory in the Northwest, and every minister never leaves the Xiongnu in three words.

"...The remnants of the Xiongnu have descended to the table, and now we are powerful in all directions, and Huihe, Shatuo, Khitan, Tuyuhun, etc. are all surrendered. It is really a great joy..." Wei Ji, Minister of the Ministry of War, said it impassionedly, and his mustache also trembled Very energetically.

However, I listened half-heartedly.Megatron?The remnants of the Xiongnu submitted their congratulatory forms, and Huihe, Shatuo, Khitan, Tuyuhun and other tribes also handed over their congratulatory forms, but who knows what kind of hearts those foreigners have?The Huns are probably afraid of being driven to extinction, and the other tribes are more likely to die of rabbits and foxes, right?

After finally waiting for Wei Ji to finish speaking, Du Jianzhi from the Ministry of Rites came out again. "...Expelling the Xiongnu was the lifelong wish of Gaozu and Tai|zu. Now that you have accomplished it, I think it should be sacrificed to the Taimiao..."

Throughout the ages, offering sacrifices to the Taimiao also involves more red tape, but it really cannot be saved.Moreover, Du Jianzhi still missed one person: besides my grandfather and father, my elder brother has been thinking about this too...

"Since that's the case, the Ministry of Rites will handle the sacrifices in the Taimiao Temple, and Taichang Temple and Honglu Temple will assist you." I withdrew my thoughts and looked around the court, "Do you have any other matters to attend?"

Du Jianzhi led the order to retreat, while the other ministers turned their heads slightly and took a peek at Zhongshuling Wang Ruojun.Wang Ruojun is a veteran of the three dynasties, and has followed Gaozu since he raised the rebellion, so it's no wonder they reacted like this.However, at this moment Wang Ruojun still lowered his brows, as if he didn't hear anything.

Basically, my Manchu civil and military can be divided into three factions.One group is only looking forward to Wang Ruojun, the other group is more or less grateful for Xie Jingyu's kindness, and the remaining tendency is not obvious.On the surface, Wang Ruojun was still the minister with the oldest qualifications and the most important words.

Although the water is clear, there will be no murlocs, and there will be no disciples, but I can indeed see the movement below very clearly. "Xie Aiqing," I suddenly changed the subject, "How about the Northwest Army's reward list?"

Xie Jingyu responded. "Returning to Your Majesty, the list of ministers listed by Wei Shangshu has been checked one by one. Do you want to see it yourself?"

"Read it directly, everyone listen to it together." I waved my hand.

The defeat of the Xiongnu had many meritorious deeds, and the list of rewards was definitely not short, but Xie Jingyu had no objection.For a while, only his clear voice could be heard in the golden hall, like pearls falling on a jade plate.

I half-closed my eyes and carefully looked at that man for the umpteenth time.

The Xie family in Southern Wu was famous for their talents at the beginning, and later three queens were born in succession, and many of the children in the family became officials, and they moved to the court.In Xie Jingyu's grandfather's generation, the Xie family was already an unrivaled aristocratic family in Southern Wu, and the people who made friends were all high-ranking officials and dignitaries.

With such a family background, Xie Jingyu's looks are naturally not bad.Sword eyebrows, high nose, straight outline, compared to the appearance of ordinary Southern Wu people, it is really sharp.However, this is obviously not the only place where Xie Jingyu differs from others, otherwise the Tai | Ancestor—that is, my father—would not be able to appreciate his talents, and he would not stand in front of me now.

It's a pity that whenever I stare at him, I can't help but think of Yu Wenhu and Wei Zhongxian—in the world today, apart from me, there may be no one who knows who Wei Zhongxian is, after all, he lives in a thousand years.I have just ascended the throne not long ago, and it is too early for me to imitate other emperors and overthrow powerful officials.It's just planning ahead and planning ahead...

"...Shi Ke, led a team to wipe out 150 enemies, named Zhiguo Captain, and gave him silver..."

"That's enough, the list is really too long." When I regained my senses, I called a stop, "Send a copy to each department, and if there is no objection, follow it."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xie Jingyu replied, still in that unhurried tone, the kind that no one could fault.

I personally think that if I am worthy of a scheming evaluation, Xie Jingyu must be even more worthy of it. "The meritorious people below have been rewarded, so naturally those above should also be rewarded." I raised my hand slightly, and Liu Jin stepped forward quickly and began to announce the edict.

In an instant, the hall was so quiet that a needle could be heard falling.The imperial edict is not long, and I am very satisfied to see the different expressions of surprise on the faces of the ministers below—Wang Ruojun was transferred from the Zhongshuling to the right servant, and the vacancy was filled by the current Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Xie Jingyu.

Wang Ruojun was only transferred among several prime ministers, so there is nothing surprising; but what about Xie Jingyu... Zhongshu Province is in the Taiji Palace, and the chief officer has always been the emperor's confidant; Confidant" to catch up with the relationship?

As for the reactions of the two involved...Wang Ruojun got up and went out, the old god was there, after all, he was the one who drafted the edict.As for Xie Jingyu, he was stunned for a moment, then got up and walked out after he realized it, the speed was not much slower than Wang Ruojun.

"The minister leads the order to thank you." Both of them kowtowed.

"Both lovers, get flattened quickly." I raised my hand in vain, and then recited a large paragraph of lines with ups and downs, to the effect that you are both important ministers of the humerus, you must perform well and work together to make Da Zhou more prosperous and prosperous.To be honest, if I hadn't just seen Xie Jingyu stunned, I'm afraid I wouldn't be so patient.

"I must live up to your Majesty's entrustment, do my best, and die for myself."

There are many people in the hall, and everyone speaks beautifully, so I naturally didn't take it to heart. "That's excellent." Zhen nodded and said, "I have one more thing...Xie Fengge, I remember you haven't reached your thirties yet?"

Zhongshu Sheng is also known as Fengge, and there should be no problem with Xie Fengge, but Xie Jingyu's eyebrows moved slightly, as if he hadn't adapted yet. "Thanks to Your Majesty's inquiry, I am twenty-eight this year."

"Such an achievement at such a young age, it really can be set as an example for all the ministers." I followed, thinking that this guy had already guessed what I wanted to say.

"Your Majesty's reputation is too high. The king has gone through three dynasties, he is loyal to the country, he is old and strong, and the minister can't match it."

This is dragging Wang Ruojun out as a shield. "That's right." I agreed casually, regardless of whether Xie Jingyu had guessed it, "For more than ten years, Xie Fengge has worked so hard and had no time to take care of himself. I am very sorry. How about I give you a marriage?"

Like a burst of thunder, there was some movement in the hall, and Wang Ruojun glanced at me quietly.

Probably only Xie Jingyu himself remained unmoved. "Your Majesty's kindness, I will never forget it." He said without changing his tone, "But I can't bear it."

I am a little puzzled.If I say that I want to bestow a marriage, Xie Jingyu will most likely think that I want to use the in-law relationship to restrain him.Unwillingness is absolute, but this is the first time he has shown me face so bluntly. "Why?"

Xie Jingyu still looked unmoved. "I love the south wind."

These earth-shattering four words, if he uttered them, are no different from "I have the original play".Suddenly there was gasping sound one after another in the hall, and then the pot exploded.

I can understand them very well, because I didn't expect this kind of answer——

Xie Jingyu, a cheater, doesn't follow common sense at all!

The author has something to say: His Majesty... the dream spans 5000 years, um~
