Chapter 16 The Emperor's Word, Move to the House
In the morning court, the matter was discussed for a whole morning, but the matter was not finalized. Lin Ruhai returned from the presidency of the salt administration. He had enough qualifications. In addition, he was from Tanhua and could already enter the cabinet this time. However, the Yangzhou incident offended the powerful people in the court, including the prime ministers and princes and grandsons of the cabinet, so Lin Ruhai was in great resistance to the appointment of the post.
"As sooner or later, I will kill them with my own hands!"
He seemed to be a little confused and fell several tea cups in a row, which scared the eunuchs in the house, fearing that they would be cut by Emperor Mingkang to vent their anger.
"Where is Dai Quan?"
After about a cup of tea, Emperor Mingkang temporarily calmed down his anger.
"The slave is here!"
Dai Quan replied carefully. He had been guarding outside the gate just now and did not enter the room. His master was angry and he didn't want to find it uncomfortable.
"You said Yuan, do you think those two old men in Chen think that the Supreme Emperor can always protect them? Today, they dare to give me a look in the court and make me unable to come to Taiwan. How dare they?"
Dai Quan looked tight when he heard Emperor Mingkang's words, and he didn't dare to say a word. These two prime ministers were not something he could talk about. With his qualifications, even Emperor Mingkang wanted to give them three points of thin air!
"Hmph, who is your slave, you old dog, so you can't even bark?"
Dai Quan heard Emperor Mingkang's words and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Of course, the slave is His Majesty's slave. The two of them are immortal and do not know the kindness of heaven. They deceive the emperor and the emperor. They should kill nine clans, cut them into pieces, cut off their sons and grandchildren, and leave them infamous for thousands of years..."
For a moment, those swear words ran out of Dai Quan's mouth like a machine gun, and they were not in a serious way. The swear words made Emperor Mingkang laugh.
"Okay, stop talking. If the two old dogs knew, they would not have to carry the coffin to me and die with you!"
Dai Quan then stopped embarrassedly. There was no way. He was considered to be the one of Emperor Mingkang. Now Emperor Mingkang clearly disliked the two of them. If he still couldn't see the form clearly, then his figure would have to appear in the mass grave tomorrow. Since ancient times, accompanying the king is like a tiger, it is not a joke.
"Mingyi!"
Finally, Emperor Mingkang waved his hand and asked everyone else in the room to go out. He stared at the golden dragon throne for a long time and suddenly said.
A figure appeared in front of Emperor Mingkang and knelt on one knee. Looking at his appearance, it was one of the few people who appeared in front of Emperor Mingkang to protect him when Jia Li was shocking the ministers that day.
"I heard that Jia Li had been to Yangzhou before. Did you think of Lin Ruhai's incident? "
Ming Yi seemed to be thinking about something. After about a dozen breaths, he said hesitantly: "Although the champion Hou Wu is very good, as far as his subordinates know, he had only been there for one night, and probably could not do it. Besides, when he left Beijing, there were only two guards around him!"
Obviously, the implication is that there are thousands of people in the eight major families of salt merchants. Even if they are pigs, they can’t kill them in one night! Their families are all scattered all over the south of the Yangtze River, which is even more unrealistic.
Emperor Mingkang was silent. He also speculated that the bloody Yangzhou incident was involved with Jia Li, but it should not be his move. As Mingyi said, the time was too short, and even if he was quick, he would not be able to escape most of Jiangnan overnight.
Suddenly, Emperor Mingkang said, "What if Jia Li really did this?"
Mingyi replied without thinking: "It is impossible. Even if our secret guards come out in full swing, they will not be able to slaughter all the eight major salt merchants in one night."
"How many people are there in the Secret Guard now?"
Emperor Mingkang seemed to be thinking, and asked in Mingyi's extremely affirmative tone.
"It's enough for two people to get 200, both of whom are worth ten! There are also several big players who are good at blocking a hundred!"
Seeing Emperor Mingkang silently, he knocked on the imperial desk with his left ring finger and stared at him.
Mingyi and Ming Kangdi looked at him and knew what he should say.
"The eight major salt merchants have a lot of private property, and there are many black and white roads involved, so they all keep private soldiers in captivity, ranging from four to five hundred to two to three hundred. Most of them are heroes in the martial arts world, and their single combat capabilities are not much inferior to us!"
"Hmph, these salt merchants dare to raise private soldiers. If they are not dead, I want to kill them again!"
After all, the emperor who is in charge of the power of life and death in the world is also very terrifying. Ming was even lowered when he heard Emperor Mingkang's words.
"How powerful is my champion Hou?"
The emperor's thoughts were unpredictable, and Emperor Mingkang suddenly asked this question again.
After Ming heard this, he kept silent, as if he had not heard it, and the Golden Palace fell into silence.
"What, you can't even see it? 'Northern Border Sword King'."
Ming Yi looked bitter, not that he didn't want to say it, but that he really couldn't see it. He appeared in front of Emperor Mingkang that day. When he looked at the champion Hou, it felt like a fog. When he met those cold eyes, he didn't even have the courage to draw his sword.
He had never encountered such a situation before, as he was already at the top of the martial arts world. Faced with Emperor Mingkang's reproach, he didn't know how to answer.
"When faces an ordinary person, you may be able to score a thousand!"
Obviously, this answer does not satisfy Emperor Mingkang. Ordinary people, perhaps such words should not appear in his secret guard's answer.
Mingyi also knew that such an answer would not satisfy his master, so he continued: "For the champion Hou, I still have some news. Whenever he charges, he will pierce into the enemy army like a nail. Although he is brave, he is not unscathed. Every time he charges, his armor will be dyed blood red, both enemy and his own, so he has a resounding name in the South China Sea field."
After hearing this, Emperor Mingkang laughed twice, not sure whether he was laughing at Jia Li's blindly bravery, not knowing whether he cherished his life to protect himself, or whether he was laughing at the champion Hou who was not an invincible person after all, and would be injured.
"Dai Quan, proclaimed the edict, the champion Hou Zhongyi was brave and fought on the battlefield. He returned home in red clothes and gave him the word "Wu Shang". I hope he will not be sad on the battlefield. In the future, I will continue to promote my great prosperity and power!"
An imperial edict caused a sensation in Shenjing. The Tian family's gift of the word "is not something that ordinary families can have. The East Mansion once again opened the central door. Looking at Dai Quan who came to pass the imperial edict, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong and his son looked a little embarrassed, because this morning, Jia Li asked Qingwen for the body contract and took Yinglian and the other three to move to the new mansion.
"What, what about the marquis?"
Seeing that Jia Li hadn't come out, Dai Quan said impatiently.
This is the first time Jia Zhen has faced this inner minister, Eunuch Dai, and the last time it was Jia Jing's order. Although the Jia family has always had some contact with this person, the Western Mansion is coming to visit the West Mansion. The two of them are not very familiar with each other, but they only occasionally sound their names. Now, facing the number one inner minister under the feet of the emperor, they can't even say a word. Should I tell him that Jia Li has moved now, and I will still be driven away by him?
Jia Rong was young and didn't know the story inside. When she heard Dai Quan's question, she saw Jia Zhen not talking, and Jia Rong said, "Uncle Second has moved to the mansion in the morning. I guess she has arrived at the Marquis' Mansion at this moment!"
Dai Quan was stunned when he heard this and glanced at them without a trace. Although the branch sect was His Majesty's will, Jia Li's prestige and merits have already been attracted by the two saints. Even Jia Li, a branch sect, shouldn't leave in such a hurry.
Thinking of this, Dai Quan looked at the two people in front of him with a strange look, and almost asked if you were fools? Don’t you know that who is the pillar of your Jia family?
However, when he was in the Daming Palace, he was used to the scandal of nobles. He also had some speculations about Jia Zhen and his son. For these short-sighted two people, he advised him, "Rat's Taste!"
However, after hearing about this, the Western Palace called Jia Zhen over.
"Brother Zhen! I heard that Eunuch Dai is here to announce the imperial edict to Brother Li again. I really didn't expect that such a legendary figure has appeared in our Jia family. I have never seen it yet!"
Hearing Jia Mu's words, the room in the back hall lit up. The champion of the year of the dance spoon, the horse of Dingjiang Jiaonan, is rare in the world, but these young talents really want to meet them.
Especially Baochai and Tanchun, the two stronger people, had a stronger look, and they had more expectations for this brother who had never met.
Jia Zhen had more thoughts and did not express his thoughts. Instead, he said: "Brother Li was about to visit his relatives and was thinking that he would not delay the great affairs of the imperial concubine. In addition, the imperial edict ordered him to establish a government branch, and he had moved out in the morning."
After hearing this, Jia Mu looked cold. She was not confused yet. She could hear that Jia Zhen was killing someone with a knife, but she was so easy to deal with.
"Building a yard for the Empress can't be done in a short while. Besides, such a large yard is not as small as him. Brother Zhen, if you hide the evil spirit in this matter, I will not rely on my friendship with Brother Li!"
Jia Zhen was sweating profusely. If the old lady said this, Jia Jing would have known this, she would not have been able to peel him off.
When the people in the inner hall heard this, they immediately started to talk, "I said this brother, what's the point of being good about him? He heard him when he went out to drink and play on weekdays. Why did the ancestors want to see him? Those rough men have defiled our pure daughter's land in vain!"
Jia Baoyu habitually complained to himself, and the sisters in the room laughed loudly, but Daiyu's little face turned red unexpectedly.
She and Xichun both received a gift in the morning, but Jia Li gave it to her. It was a token, and it was a certificate for entering the Hou Mansion. However, hers were not given by Jia Li, but were asked by herself. When she thought of what happened in the morning, her face turned extremely rosy.
"Why, shouldn't everyone have this thing? Why don't I have it? Brother, you are so kind to the South China Sea!"
Thinking of Jia Li's helpless expression and the bracelet on her wrist, Daiyu felt happy, as if she had drunk honey.
Xichun got a jade pendant, and there was only one word Li on the cloud pattern. She had only seen that kind of cloud pattern in Jia Li. Her one was a bracelet. In fact, it was a bracelet, but it was a wrist guard. I don’t know what material it was, and it could be rolled up, just like a bracelet. The same cloud pattern was engraved with the word “moral”.
The smart Daiyu listened to the sisters in the room talking about Jia Li, without saying a word, while Xichun was cold all the time, and no one dared to ask, for fear of being beaten up again. Both of them seemed to subconsciously not want to share their brother Li with others.
But Baochai still saw something. She quietly walked to Daiyu and said softly: "Aren't sister curious about that brother Li? I heard that some people have seen it!"
At this time, Lin Ruhai was still alive, and his official position was directly above the cabinet. He was also close to Jia Li, the giant who was in the Jia family. He was cautious in everything he did, afraid of being looked down upon, but now it was different. She became much more casual and unrestrained. When it comes to quarrels, she has never been afraid in this life!
"Yes! I've just been lucky enough to see you once, but it doesn't seem like some people don't even have the luck to see you. I really don't know what evil you have committed!"
Daiyu's words were like a piece of carbon explosion, which made Baochai's face turn pale, she didn't say a word, turned her head and went back.
"Hmph, what's the bad guy? It seems like I'm talking about awesome people!"
Xiangyun accidentally heard Daiyu's words, and looked at Baochai's pale face, and was so angry that she said something to Daiyu.
Daiyu glanced at Xiangyun. Xiangyun's beautiful eyes were still the same life experience in this life. Her parents were lost early, her uncle didn't love her, and her grandmother didn't love her. In the end, she became a flower boat without anyone consultant. Daiyu, who knew the details, was embarrassed to argue with this good sister in her previous life.
"Go and go, go and find your beloved brother, speak to your adults, and don't interrupt the child."
