Fast Time Travel: Cannon Fodder's Road to Godhood

The two had just returned to the gate of the capital city, and there were three rows of armored soldiers passing by, strictly checking the passers-by.

Suning turned his head and looked at Song Li suspiciously, intending to ask Song Li to explain.

Song Li explained: "The emperor's birthday is approaching, and all countries will send envoys to congratulate him. This is for the safety of the capital."

After Song Licai finished speaking, a group of messengers on horseback and carrying gift boxes came from a distance.

Suning and Song Li led the way and entered the city.He looked back and saw that the group of messengers had braided hair, dark skin, rough faces, and curly thick beards on their cheeks.

Song Li also looked back and said: "This is the envoy of Beijiang. Beijiang is outside the Great Wall, and most of them are masters of imperial horses. This time Beijiang came here to make friends with Jin. I heard that the princess of Beijiang And the third prince of Beijiang also came."

"Huh? Princess of Northern Xinjiang." Suning raised his eyebrows.

Song Li: "Princess Beijiang wants to marry Dajin. I'm afraid the emperor will decide this matter after the birthday banquet. The subordinates dare not lie."

Su Ning said gloomyly: "Heh!" Although Su Xie's body is not his, but at the moment the soul is the same, he can't bear Su Xie's real marriage.

Su Xie was approving the memorial in the imperial study, and suddenly shuddered, a very bad premonition welled up in her heart, could it be that there is a problem with the main god's space?It seems that he is about to leave this world.

Song Li was next to Suning, seeing the look on Suning's side face, he licked his lips and asked cautiously, "My lord, is there any problem?"

"No. I got a jade bottle recently. You've done a good job. I'll give it to you."

Although Song Li didn't understand, he hurriedly thanked him and said, "Thank you, sir."

Back at Dali Temple, Han Zimo and Tao Hongyi told the news about beggars found in the capital within the past five days.

Those beggars disappeared, and they didn't show up once in five days.According to the existing beggars, they don't know those children. Those children appear suddenly in the morning and disappear suddenly in the evening.

So no news can be obtained from them, and they came in secret, not daring to investigate with much fanfare.

Su Ning asked: "Appear suddenly? Disappear suddenly?"

Han Zimo nodded and said in puzzlement, "Yes, if you ask me, these little beggars are all human beings. It would be strange if they suddenly appeared and disappeared under their noses."

Su Ning hummed, the number of these children is not small, if they want to suddenly appear and disappear, who in the capital can have the conditions to deceive people like this.

But he also said: "In the past few days in Haijiang County, I learned from those people that these trafficked children will be inspected by special personnel, not only for their appearance, but also for their bones. The special person I caught was a procuress with a hook , There are also people who know martial arts."

Tao Hongyi asked: "A person who knows martial arts?"

Su Ning nodded: "I can't think of anything other than let the children practice martial arts. But after these children practice martial arts, they will not appear on the bright side. The most likely are killers, bandits, and hidden guards."

Han Zimo suddenly said: "Ning Ning, what you mean is that no one will want to rebel."

Su Ning shook his head: "Not for the time being, the number is not enough, there is no military power, and the success rate of rebellion is too low after ten years of cultivating children."

Tao Hongyi said: "Assassins are possible. There are many rewards for people's lives in the world. What people behind the scenes want most is to make money. Killers make more money than beggars."

Su Ning rubbed his chin and said, "Well, it's the same. But I think there must be missing children in the capital. Although the beggars are missing, those people also sell them to the Goulan."

Han Zimo: "So next, let's go to Goulan to check?"

"Yeah, why did you get scared last time in Chunyi Tower?" Su Ning teased Han Zimo.

"That's not true." Han Zimo immediately retorted with a red face: "Last time my father found out, he didn't let me go to Chunyi Building."

Su Ning said with a smile: "Who said we will go to Chunyi Building again?"

Tao Hongyi also smiled, and said, "The last time something big happened in the Chunyi Building, we investigated thoroughly. Those people are so cautious, and the key people will definitely change places."

Han Zimo asked blankly, "Then where are we going?"

"Goulan except Chunyi Building." Suning and Tao Hongyi said in unison.

This matter needs to be investigated, Tao Hongyi remembered that Lin Ning came from Lujiang County, and he definitely didn't know about the emperor's birthday banquet, so he hurriedly bought him a birthday present.

Suning smiled and took the ginseng given by Tao Hongyi, then went home, brewed it himself, and relieved the recent fatigue.

For the rest of the time, Tao Hongyi was not good at showing up to brothels, and Han Zimo was shy and thin-skinned. This matter was handed over to Lin Shaoqing, who had the thickest skin, and asked him to help make a list of the famous Goulan, bustards, and oirans in the capital. .

The birthday is approaching, and Suning is staying at home, not knowing what to do.Tao Hongyi's ginseng was made tea and stewed chicken soup by him, and Wu Chengli's was given to Song Li by him.

The dark guard twitched the corner of his mouth on Monday, silently reporting the news to the emperor.

When Su Xie got the news, she became curious and looked forward to what kind of gift Ningning would give him on the night of his birthday.

On the day of her birthday, Su Xie pushed Empress Dowager Wu several times in succession.

Empress Dowager Wu couldn't sit still any longer, so she brought someone directly to the imperial study to see what the emperor was up to all day long.

"The emperor doesn't go to my place very much these days. Are you so busy recently?" Before the Empress Dowager Wu entered the imperial study, the stabbing voice came first.

When waiting for people to come in, they carry a strong fragrance, and there is a big scene behind them.

Su Xie stood up and said calmly: "My minister has been busy with official duties recently, the envoys are coming to Dajin, and there are still many official documents to go through."

Empress Dowager Wu frowned: "Let the prime minister help you with this kind of thing, can't you? Emperor, you are now in grade 23, and there is no one in the harem. How do you let the descendants of the Jin Dynasty continue."

"As the queen mother said, I am only 23, and there is still plenty of time."

Empress Dowager Wu refused to give in: "You, this harem should be full. Isn't the princess of Northern Xinjiang coming? She entered the harem from an outlander. What can I do if there is no one in your palace to preside over Zhongkui! No matter what, you must choose Several people."

Su Xie still said calmly: "You don't have to worry about this matter, the Queen Mother. The princess from Northern Xinjiang is here for the government affairs of the two countries and belongs to the affairs of the court. The Queen Mother can manage the harem well."

The queen mother was trembling with anger, pointed at Su Xie and said, "You! Are you not accepting concubines!"

"Government affairs are busy recently, please come back, Queen Mother."

"Okay, okay. Emperor, you are disobedient." Empress Dowager Wu waved her sleeves and left bitterly.Just after returning to Shouning Palace, I saw Wu Qianyi, my niece and daughter, looking forward to it.

Wu Qianyi didn't see the bright yellow figure coming over, she was quite disappointed and said: "Auntie, why didn't the emperor come over?"

Empress Dowager Wu first got angry with the emperor, and now she told this useless niece, and said with a cold face: "If you are useful, you can win the emperor's heart, and you can use Aijia to pull your face down." Go beg the emperor!"

Wu Qianyi understood that she had said something wrong, and immediately said weakly and wronged: "Auntie, it was Qianyi who said something wrong. It's just that the emperor's cousin doesn't come to the harem on weekdays, how could Qianyi see him?"

Empress Dowager Wu was really angry with this fool, and scolded: "The last Qingming cruise! How many noble girls saw the emperor, and that shameless Yi Shuyue still misses the emperor, what about you!"

"But Yi Shuyue was fined to twist her hair and go to become a nun~ Qianyi's face turned red that day, so she couldn't go out~"

"Forget it, forget it." Empress Dowager Wu waved her hand, this child is stupid because he is stupid, easy to control, she just wants a little prince who comes out of the Wu family's belly!

"If you have a little Yijia Shuhua's demeanor, Aijia won't have to worry so much. You are waiting here tonight!"

Wu Qianyi didn't care what the Empress Dowager Wu said about her, she only knew that the Empress Dowager would plan for her, so she said happily, "Auntie, Qianyi understands."

On the night of the emperor's birthday banquet, all the officials first went to the palace to register and check the gifts.

Suning sent a scroll alone, and the registered eunuch was Sun Zhong, who was close to the emperor, and the corner of his mouth twitched when he saw the scroll handed over by the Minister of Dali Temple.

From the front, most of the gifts from all the officials are of great value and beautifully packaged.Although the minister of Dali Temple had just taken office, it was said that he was a student of Prime Minister Wu, so why did he give it so crudely, without even a package.

Sun Zhong took the scroll, and when he opened it, the corner of his mouth twitched violently. There was only one article on this scroll, and there were many incomprehensible symbols. "Master Lin, I'm sure this gift is for you."

"Yeah, what's the problem?"

Sun Zhong was confused by Suning's frank appearance, so he didn't know how to deal with it. He could only nod, put the scroll aside, and registered, "No problem, Mr. Lin, please come in."

Suning entered the hall with his hands behind his back.

Han Zimo arrived first with his father, Sheyuan Wang, and waved quickly when he saw Suning.

Suning just nodded slightly, walked to Prime Minister Wu's side, and looked at the people coming from the hall.Not only the officials of the DPRK and China, but also envoys from various countries arrived.Especially the northern Xinjiang envoy, standing next to a beautiful and wild princess with bright eyes.

Seeing Suning's actions, King Sheyuan didn't show much expression, he just suppressed Han Zimo's fuss and let him be a little prince quietly.

On the night of the birthday banquet, Sun Zhong reported and sang outside the hall: "The emperor arrives ~ the queen mother arrives ~ all officials salute ~"

A crowd of people knelt down, waiting for the emperor to take the throne.

"All ministers are in peace, and all envoys are in peace."

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, everyone stood up and found their seats to sit down.Next came the congratulations from the officials and envoys, all of whom said the same thing.

Waiting for the end of these interrogations is the part where the eunuchs hold congratulatory gifts for the emperor to read.

The corner of Su Ning's mouth curled up, looking at the emperor with deep meaning.

Others were a little nervous. Whether the gift was in line with the emperor's wishes was a big deal.If it is not what you want, it will be troublesome for the emperor to write it down in a small notebook.

The emperor praised the previous birthday gifts in the same way, and waited anxiously, until finally Sun Zhong received Suning's congratulatory gift.

Before Sun Zhong opened the congratulatory gift, he unconsciously glanced at Mr. Lin. Seeing that he was still calm and unmoved, he opened the package again with the corner of his mouth twitching, and took out the scroll.

The author has something to say: Guess what the scroll says
