After becoming the king of the subjugated country

In the past two busy months, due to the rescue of the victims and the distribution of food through work, not only in Kyoto, but also in other areas, the grain reserves have been greatly reduced.

Disaster relief and canal construction were two things mixed together. Ji Chen didn't take much rest this time, and read the memorials and approval documents seriously. Naturally, the courtiers didn't dare to fool this matter easily, and they all accompanied Ji Chen to work overtime. Add points to handle affairs.

Probably because he saw that Ji Chen had to do this thing well, otherwise he would have been tossing until it was done. After the first two dancers were killed to make an example of others, the courtiers were completely obedient, and it was rare that they did not seize the time to fight. Everyone cooperated extremely and worked hard to make this matter complete.

When the first snow fell in Kyoto, Ji Chen was finally freed from his busy schedule, so he took advantage of the opportunity to reward many ministers and held this banquet, which was regarded as a joy for the monarch and his ministers.After the banquet, it is natural to reward the heroes.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the edict says... reward a hundred taels of gold and a pair of jade Ruyi." [1]

After receiving the imperial decree, Prime Minister Qin immediately gave the butler a look. The butler suddenly understood, and with a smile on his face, he stuffed a purse into the eunuch wearing a dark blue robe, "Elder-in-law, I wonder who His Majesty has conferred?"

The eunuch happily accepted it, and secretly squeezed it with his hands, only to find a soft piece of paper. He couldn't help feeling in his heart that the Qin family is worthy of being a century-old family with a deep foundation, and all he sent him was a bank note.

The smile became more sincere, and the eunuch quickly started talking, "Of course Prime Minister Qin is the first one, and the rewards are also the most generous. The next row is Lord Ning Yuanning, Lord Jiang Zilinjiang, Lord Jiao Shenjiao, and Lord Qian. My lords and them... In addition to these, and Shang Nan Shang, His Majesty rewarded Shang with small items, and even chose a palace in the palace for Shang, saying that it was convenient for Shang to rest in his spare time. .”

The eunuch's words are meaningful. Sometimes, rewards can't just be based on value, but also on whether they are practical.At least this palace was extremely practical for Shang Nan.After all, it represented the Sacred Heart, which meant that the palace had opened its doors to him.

Qin Xiang frowned as he listened, he couldn't help thinking that just after the primary election of the show girls, His Majesty circled the palace to Shang Nan, obviously intending to keep people to live there, and the intention is to become a bald man Lice - obvious!

Seeing this, the housekeeper asked another question, "Where is the palace bestowed by Mr. Shang?"

"It's Penglai Hall." The eunuch whispered.

The Penglai Hall is next to the emperor's bedroom, and you can walk to the emperor's bedroom just by turning a corner.

The housekeeper thought silently, this is really close, it is really convenient to rest.

Qin Xiang: "..."

He tried his best to calm himself down. After all, he was getting older and his mood swings were really bad for his health.

He still wants to live a few more years.

The housekeeper sent the eunuch away with good words, and when he turned around, he saw his master's serious face, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Master? What's wrong with this?"

Qin Xiang snorted coldly, "Sure, what could be wrong!"

Before the queen enters the palace, two men live in and start to enjoy hugging from left to right. It is indeed impolite, but His Majesty is at most obsessed with masculinity, but in other respects he is wise and decisive, and he is not a fatuous king. say what?

Since the emperor can be worthy of the people of Liming, in private, if the emperor is a little bit sorry for one or two people, whoever he fails, what is it?Besides, he was not unwilling to look at Bai Qi and Shang Nan.

Even if the first emperor was criticized, the crime was not for abandoning the concubines in the harem and the original queen, but for disregarding the country and conniving relatives.

It's just that no matter how you think about it, it's a bit sad. Qin Xiang sighed secretly, shook his sleeves and said, "Prepare the carriage for me, I'll go to the Imperial College to have a look first."

The steward replied: "Yes."

In the Imperial College, the sound of reading aloud could be heard from far away, and Prime Minister Qin couldn't help feeling relieved.

Passing through the place where the primary school was located, Qin Xiang went directly to the place where these new candidates were located.

Among this batch of examinees, only Shang Nan has obtained the official canonization and official position, and the rest have been thrown into the Imperial College to study. Of course, this study is no longer about studying the Four Books and Five Classics, but learning how to deal with affairs, how to Govern locally.

Hearing that the servants reported that Prime Minister Qin was coming, the Jijiu of the Imperial College put down the snacks in his hand, took a sip of tea in a hurry to rinse his mouth, and ran out in a hurry, "President Qin, you are here."

Qin Xiang nodded, seeing the young people in front of him full of vigor and vitality, the young students were full of joy for the future life, and couldn't wait to show their strengths, so he couldn't help smiling.

Seeing that Prime Minister Qin didn't speak, Guozijian Jijiu glanced at the classroom, and was taken aback for a moment, then remembered that it was that person who was teaching today, and looked away as if secretly looking at Prime Minister Qin, pretending nothing happened.

"Who is teaching today?" After a long time, Qin Xiang asked seriously, and then said with disgust to the dean of the academy: "What? Do you think I'm an old pedant who can't see such a thing?"

On the podium, I saw a woman dressed in men's clothing, with her hair simply tied up. Her face was calm, her voice was clear, and her opinions were sharp.She did not seriously conceal her femininity, her delicate white skin and the cleanliness of her neck showed her identity as a woman, but she did not dodge or shy. Not wavering at all.

Qin Xiang couldn't help nodding, feeling a little regretful that this person was not a man, and then cursed himself secretly, Bi Xuan was not the first female officer, so a woman is a woman, since she has this talent, why bother to hold on to such an outdated concept? They are doing things for His Majesty, and they are both officials in the same dynasty. Do we have to distinguish between high and low?

Seeing that Prime Minister Qin's face was as usual, the Guozijian calmed down and sighed, "Master Qin, don't say that I react violently. These students are not easy to manage these days. Miss Bi has real talents and is free to teach everyone. This is a good thing. Don't say it, these people were not convinced at first, but they were persuaded by Ms. Bi."

complete?Qin Xiang immediately connected her surname with the name of someone in court, "Is this Miss Bi Xuanbi?"

This person works in the Ministry of War, and spends most of his time in the workshop. Last month, because of his meritorious service in the research and development of "Gun|Powder", he was promoted to the fifth rank, and he has accumulated a lot of merit.Although Qin Xiang hadn't seen the power of gunpowder with his own eyes, and most of the people who participated in it were silent, but the occasional word or two of rumors that came out were all boasting about the power of gunpowder and how powerful Miss Bi was.

Guozijian looked at Qin Xiang expectantly while offering wine, "Of course it's her, and I spent a lot of effort to invite her here. Qin Xiang, since you're here, why don't you go and say a few words."

Qin Xiang stared at the harmonious scene in the classroom, sighed leisurely, and then smiled again, "No need, she did a good job, even when I was young, I couldn't do it to this level. I'm old, and I will always be young The world is over, and we will have to rely on them in the future.”

Guozijian Jijiu said quickly: "Qin Xiang is still young and strong."

Qin Xiang just laughed without explaining. After he turned around, he left the Imperial College and went to the palace.

Carrying the memorial in his arms, Qin Xiang walked all the way into Ji Chen's study room, disregarding Ji Chen's obstruction, and solemnly saluted, "I want to become an official."

Ji Chen was taken aback for a moment, and then he came to his senses, and said seriously: "I have appointed Prime Minister Qin as a first-rank Grand Master. In the future, if Xiangruo Qin has something to say to me, he can send a memorial to the palace at any time."

Only then did Prime Minister Qin get up, and respectfully handed over the memorial, "Before parting, I have one last word of advice to Your Majesty."

"Prime Minister, please tell me." Ji Chen was also a little emotional. In less than a year, Prime Minister Qin will leave.

What's more, the memorial in his hand was obviously the old General Qiao's prayer for his appointment.

"I hope your majesty will think more about it for your children." Qin Xiang never mentioned the matter of setting up a heir and accepting a concubine, but only seriously analyzed the reasons for Ji Chen, "Nowadays, the people think about stability, and the ministers think about stability. If your majesty can have a few Prince and Princess, I think the court will be more stable inside and outside the court."

Ji Chen was stunned for a moment, only then did he realize what he had missed.

Of course he knows, maybe he himself will perish in the future and doesn't need any next generation, but others don't know.

All along, the one who urges marriage is the one who urges childbearing.

How can a man have children?Ji Chen's thoughts drifted away in an instant, so where can he find a reason to explain to the courtiers?

Moreover, in the clans that are a little farther away, it seems that nearly [-]% of the family members have been arrested, beheaded or exiled by him...

At this time, Ji Chen really didn't dare to bet on whether the children in such a family were reliable, what if, what if the person he chose was persuaded by the blood relatives of his family after his death, what kind of disgusting person would he be? In terms of operations, whether it is to revise the history books, or bully the courtiers he left behind, or even remove Bai Qi's ranking from the Taimiao.

"What's more, Your Majesty canonized the subject as Grand Master, and I am grateful, but there is no prince in the palace, so naturally there is no crown prince. I don't know when the false title of subject will really work." Qin Xiang left after finishing speaking. Seeing Ji Chen's guilty face, he stopped at the right time, as long as Ji Chen was willing to listen to it. As for the result of this draft, he couldn't and couldn't control it.

When he walked out of the arch, Prime Minister Qin glanced back at Ji Chen, and saw the young king meditating on the memorial in silence. On the way back to the mansion, the carriage passed through the lively crowd, and the laughter of children was overflowing, creating a bustling scene .

Qin Xiang thought that he had no regrets.

In the study, while Ji Chen was writing a formal edict for people to issue, he also had people call Ji Pei and Ji Shao over.

When both of them arrived, Ji Chen told them to sit down, and asked earnestly: "In the future, the court may press for a child. I'm thinking about how to solve this matter."

Ji Chen's idea is that it is better to transfer the conflict than to face it.

Although he has no children, he has a younger brother and younger sister!

The courtiers urged him, and he urged his brother and sister.Naturally, this cauldron can be pushed to anyone.Push it for two years first, wait two years later, and then look at specific things.

"I originally wanted to choose from the clan, but those clans far away couldn't do it. Now in the capital, only our three brothers and sisters depend on each other." Ji Chen hinted.

Come on, who will take this pot?

Ji Pei: "..."

Ji Pei coughed lightly, showing a shy smile, "I'm no longer a royal family, brother, this matter still depends on my sister."

Since you said that, you are still called Second Brother Huangxiong?

Ji Shao glanced at Ji Pei, with murderous intent in his eyes, and then smiled and said to Ji Chen, "Second brother, I really have intentions, but I'm really powerless, after all, I'm a woman."

Ji Chen said: "That's simple. The next imperial decree says that the princess's heirs will be adopted by me, but heirs can also be adopted. You can also follow the mother's surname and enter the clan. Ji Pei, yours is the same. As long as there is an imperial decree, it will be fine." To get them back to the Royals, none of that is a problem."

Ji Shao was shocked, "But I will only turn fifteen in January next year! Is this age too young? Second brother, you said you could wait for me for a few more years."

Ji Pei's smile was still sincere, and he didn't seem to mean anything against Ji Shao at all, but he just argued in a low voice: "It will take two years to walk the six ceremonies, plus a year to see each other, when you get married, there will be about ten years. Eight."

Ji Shao suddenly realized, "Second brother, speaking of it, the third brother's marriage is more important. You see, he is nineteen years old, and he still doesn't even have a sweetheart. At least you have Bai Qi by your side, someone to talk to. The night is not lonely, but the third brother is different. I am lonely and helpless at night. According to my opinion, it is really not possible, so I just pick a good one from the list of beautiful women. They had a good time."

Ji Pei finally became anxious, "No! I don't want Xiu Nu, who said I don't have a sweetheart? I—"

Ji Chen and Ji Shao stared at him at the same time, "Who!"

Ji Pei finally realized that he was being tricked. He was probably Ji Chen's real target. He opened his mouth and said with difficulty, "Yes, it's Bi Xuan. I've liked her for a long time."

I couldn't say it before, but now I can't bear to say it.

A guy like that shouldn't be stuck in the backyard because of him.But no one knows whether the female officer can still be the same as she is now after she gets married. If she can only support her husband and raise her children at home, wouldn't the hard work of these years come to an end?

Ji Shao finally became happy, "That's good, it looks like I'm going to have a sister-in-law."

Ji Pei was anxious, "Don't tell the outside world, I haven't told her, and she doesn't know."

Ji Shao said: "The progress is so slow?"

Ji Pei had no choice but to cede land for peace, and promised to supply a new batch of weapons from the workshop to Ji Shao's army, which made Ji Shao stop his thoughts.

The younger brother and younger sister were fighting beside him, and Ji Chen remembered the plot again, so he couldn't help but glance at Ji Pei more.

Bi Xuan's identity as a time-traveling woman is confirmed, and Ji Pei is indeed talented in weapons. The two of them, one male lead and one female lead, really want to be together, that is indeed a perfect match.

Speaking of which, he seems to have only read twenty chapters of that novel, and there are still about eighty chapters to follow...

Since ancient times, there can only be one king in a region.

So in the end, who is the winner?

Is it them?

The author has something to say:

In the end, there is no winner, everyone is going to the same goal [hint]

On the 1st, two wisdom teeth on one side were pulled out, and two stitches were stitched, and now it is barely over, so the update is a bit late.

Belated National Celebration Blessing: I wish the motherland peace and prosperity.
