Ever since the establishment of the crown prince, Taizong had an account of what happened behind him, and his body quickly declined. He was almost unable to recover from critical illness several times, but the emperor survived abruptly.

The important ministers of the older generation have already followed the late emperor. Now the military generals are Li Jilong, Yang Yanzhao and other new generations who are standing up for the time being. Among the civil servants, Kou Zhun, whom Emperor Taizong had high hopes for, was demoted because of some bad things. These days, I went back to the place to stay.Qi Yue has a lot of qualifications, but he still lacks in wanting to be on his own.His Majesty Taizong lay on the sickbed and thought over and over again, and finally decided to use an old man who had been an official since the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. Now Lu Duan, who is nearly sixty years old, is the prime minister.

This old man is fat in his old age, and his whole person cannot be described as rich.At first everyone objected, Qi Yue was not at ease with this old man who walked with a belly full of smiles. After all, the first emperor died and the succession of the new emperor is not an ordinary event. Foreign enemies are still eyeing them. If one is not paying attention, the whole country will be in turmoil and ruin .

Ever since Kou Zhun left, Taizong has become more and more dependent on Qi Yue, and today he dismissed the courtiers, Taizong leaned on the bed, while the little eunuch was beating his legs, Taizong gave Qi Yue a seat with a smile, smiling very warmly.Such a smile has rarely appeared on His Majesty Taizong's face these years.Like an elder, without waiting for Qi Yue to refuse, he waved his hand with a smile and said, "Sit down."

Qi Yue didn't dare to refuse, so he sat down.

Taizong smiled and said: "Do you think Lu Duan can't control the scene?"

Qi Yue didn't dare to nod his head, but said: "Mr. Lu is too kind, and he is old. Your Majesty has a heavy responsibility, and I am worried..." Qi Yue can't continue to say it, as long as Taizong understands the meaning.Taizong smiled and said, "How about calling Kou Zhun back?"

Qi Yue was even more shocked when he heard the words. Kou Zhun's degree of favor is not necessarily inferior to that of the emperor's disciple Lu Mengzheng. It's just that this person has ups and downs but is honest and loyal. He is indeed a pillar of the country. If Kou Zhun is at this time In the capital, with his ability, it must be much safer, but His Majesty is asking himself now, Qi Yue is not sure for a while, what should he say?

"In my humble opinion, if Mr. Kou is in Beijing, it will be safer." Qi Yue replied.

Taizong nodded: "That's not bad, but if Kou Zhun is in the capital, I'm afraid there will be more chaos."

Qi Yue was puzzled, so he bowed and said, "I would like to hear His Majesty's teachings."

"Although the crown prince has been established, he is not the emperor after all. Who will sit on this dragon chair is still a matter of choice." Taizong patted the bed, as if on his own dragon chair, his eyes were a little obsessed, "My queen, personally Raising the eldest prince's son, my eldest son, was talented as an emperor since he was a child, but it is a pity that he is gone. Now that his son is growing up, it is inevitable that some people will use their brains. It is also possible for the empress to be confused for a while. Eunuchs have been a catastrophe for the subjugation of the country since ancient times, and we have to prevent them."

"Yes." Qi Yue deeply felt that he should not sit today. This sitting was like sitting on pins and needles. Today, His Majesty desperately said everything that can be said and cannot be said. It seems that there is something behind him to explain to himself. Qi Yue leaned forward a little, with a more respectful expression.

Taizong also saw Qi Yue's expression, he smiled and said: "Don't be so nervous, Kou Zhun is no longer, they will not be too vigilant, and there are only a few soldiers and horses in their hands, with Lu Duan and you , absolutely safe. I heard from Yin Shili that you used to serve in Pan Mei's army, and you also participated in the Chenjiagu battle?"

Qi Yue suddenly turned the topic here. The fact that he joined the army has never been leaked, but unexpectedly His Majesty knew about it, and Qi Yue did not hide it. He bowed and said, "Yes, I once fought side by side with Vice Marshal Yang. Waiting for others to sacrifice their lives for the country, leaving Qi Yue alive today."

"You can't say that. If you were shrouded in horse leather back then, who would I use now?" Taizong leaned forward and patted Qi Yue's hand. Qi Yue suddenly raised his head, and saw Taizong still had the same gentle smile as before. Pointing to his own face, he said: "I have hung this smiling face all my life. I used to be a younger brother and a courtier, and I was respectful and forbearing. Later, when I was an emperor, I wanted to be kind. As a father and brother, I wanted to be kind. I just forgot how to take it down, Qi Yue, you are different from Pan Mei Yangye, they can only move freely on the battlefield, but you can play with the latitude and longitude. You have to learn from Zhen, wear the appearance of a literati now, and always stand beside the prince behind."

"I will not disgrace my life!" When Taizong said this, Qi Yue immediately stood up, and he bowed.The emperor entrusted him with great trust, but that's all. Taizong's words made him stand in the dark forever, and the court privy had nothing to do with him.Taizong took out a box from beside him, he opened the box and handed it to Qi Yue, inside lay a token, Qi Yue didn't dare to take it without authorization, and just bowed and stood in front of Taizong, Taizong said: "Qi Qing, Reach out."

Qi Yue leaned over and lifted the corner of his robe and knelt down on his knees, took the token with both hands, Taizong handed the token to Qi Yue's palm, he said: "This is the token of the Imperial City Division, I have left it behind Secret decree, once I die, you will be the highest officer of the Imperial City Division, and all the troops of the Imperial City Division will be under your command."

"Yes." Qi Yue said, the Imperial City Division is a place that officials dare not mention without authorization. This is a secret agency directly under the emperor, the most important of which are countless secrets and the most elite spies of the Song Dynasty. All over the world, no matter the internal residences of officials or the imperial palaces of enemy countries, Qi Yue never thought that he would take over such a place.

"Mr. Lu is confused about small things, but not about big things. He was an official in the troubled times of the Five Dynasties, and his skills in governing the country are inferior to those of Kou Zhun. However, when the emperor died in such chaos, it was the situation he was most familiar with. When the crown prince succeeded, Lu The prime minister can go home to take care of the elderly. At that time, Li Hang can be promoted to prime minister, and then Kou Zhun will be recalled, and the world's major affairs will be settled. Qi Yue, if there is any danger in it, you will make up for it with all your strength. Da Song, I will hand it over to you. It's in your hands." Taizong explained a lot, and he was a little powerless, he waved his hand and said, "You step back first, let me rest for a while."

"Yes." Qi Yue bowed and stepped back, his face could not express sadness and joy. It was a good opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune, but Qi Yue went further and further away from his original self. It would be great to be able to live for my own heart like Yang Yanyu, but Qi Yue thought about it, why isn't Yang Yanyu full of resentment?Letting go of his own heart, he didn't say "kill him" in succession in the end.

The sunlight outside was a bit dazzling, Qi Yue raised his head and glanced at the sky, the sky was bright and bright, but the token in his arms made him never be under such sunshine.Qi Yue sped up his steps. He was originally a martial artist, unlike ordinary literati, he walked fast and steadily, and he left the imperial city in a short while.

Song Cheng was still waiting for him at home, Qi Yue felt relieved a lot when he thought of coming here.At this time, Song Cheng was absolutely worried. Mu Heyan fell in love with Yu Xi on the front foot, and Yu Xi said that he wanted to go out to study on the back foot. Mu Heyan was not willing to say that he wanted to go, but the canal is still closed. It was too late to send the letter to Mu Er, and Mu Heyan couldn't wait, so he pestered Song Cheng and himself to kill first and then play.

"Brother Song, just promise me, I'm also going to study, you see Yu Xi has already gone..." Mu Heyan used his 17 years of hard work to entangle Song Cheng's head. No matter where Song Cheng hides, Mu Heyan can find him accurately.Song Cheng collapsed on the table and looked at Mu Heyan with nothing to love, and said, "Heyan, please spare me."

"Are you going to agree or not? If you don't agree, I'm still going. I'm just here to let you know." Mu Heyan acted hard and softly. Song Cheng was having a headache. Qi Yue just came back. Mu Heyan was completely scared away with just one look, and Song Cheng heaved a sigh of relief for the rest of his life after the catastrophe, and made tea for Qi Yue.

"Why did you come back so early today? His face doesn't look very good." Song Cheng asked worriedly, Qi Yue shook his head, took the tea and drank it in one gulp, he said "hot" and put the tea in his arms The token was taken out and handed to Song Cheng.

Song Cheng took the token and looked at it, only to see three big characters "Huangcheng Division" written on it.There was a "buzz" in Song Cheng's head, and he asked cautiously: "Qi Yue, can't this matter be changed?"

Qi Yue shook his head with a smile, and pulled Song Cheng to sit beside him: "I can't change it." As Qi Yue told Song Cheng about all the things he saw His Majesty today, Song Cheng's face was also a little ugly Well, to put it bluntly, this imperial city secretary is still something that can't be put on the table. Although there are many privileges, the danger is not comparable to that of ordinary officials.

"Okay, okay, I haven't cried yet, but your face is down. Actually, it's not a big deal. It's not about doing things. As long as it's for the good of the people of Song Dynasty, I'm worth anything. Don't think too much about it." Qi Seeing that Song Cheng's expression was not good, Yue hurriedly said with a smile, what Qi Yue said didn't matter, but how could Song Cheng not understand, Qi Yue is the proud son of heaven, both civil and military, now he can only do these things, how can he not regret it.

"Do you feel sorry for brother? Come on, give brother a kiss, and give brother compensation." Qi Yue asked for a kiss in an unscrupulous way, Song Cheng pushed Qi Yue aside angrily and said, "Qi Yue, He Yan and Xiao Xi..."

"What's the matter?" Qi Yue didn't seem to care about it, and wrapped around Song Cheng again. He skillfully untied Song Cheng's clothes, restraining the shaking of his hands, and asked casually. He snatched his own clothes, but he didn't snatch Qi Yue, and was thrown on the bed by Qi Yue and had a hard fight.Song Cheng knew that Qi Yue was unhappy, so he cooperated very much, because Song Cheng cooperated secretly, Qi Yue was like a fish in water, and squeezed it hard.

The two were lying on the bed profusely, panting heavily, Qi Yue hooked Song Cheng's sticky hands and said, "I'm fine, let Mu Heyan go if he wants to go."

Song Cheng was also in a dilemma, at this time Qi Yue took the attention, he just nodded, acquiescing to Mu Heyan and Yu Xi going out to study together.People always have to walk for a while before they know which way to go. Besides, Yu Xi and Mu Heyan are still young, so even if they regret it, it's not too late to turn back.

Qi Yue laughed suddenly, with a bit of heartiness, he smiled and said: "When I don't want to do it anymore, I will take you and your mother to Songzhou to live a happy life. This Laoshi Ziguan, I am no longer an officer!"
