The enthronement ceremony? Yun Shang was silent for a moment. The enthronement ceremony should be held, but now is really not a good time. Xia is in trouble at home and abroad. If Luo Qingyan holds the enthronement ceremony with great fanfare, he may be criticized by others.
Luo Qingyan was probably aware of this. Hearing Liu Wen'an's question, he frowned, sighed, and said with a somewhat serious tone: "The enthronement ceremony? Let's put it later.
, the family and country are in unrest, and the war has not yet subsided, how can I have the heart to hold this enthronement ceremony?"
The corner of Liu Wen'an's mouth twitched again, and he raised his eyes to look at the couple, thinking to himself, they really are not a family, and they look too much alike if they don't live in the same family.
Luo Qingyan lay down for a while, then raised his eyes and looked at Liu Wen'an who was standing aside and said: "Go and send the documents from the meeting hall to Weiyang Palace. Those ministers will kneel down if they like. Out of sight, out of mind. Today
I won’t go to the meeting hall anymore.”
Liu Wen'an glanced at Luo Qingyan, responded, and left the inner hall.
Yun Shang heard some clues, "Do you really want to kneel down if you like? But what happened in the past?"
Luo Qingyan sneered, closed his eyes and said, "It's not because I asked Sun Bingzhi and Zhao Yingjie, the top martial arts champions, to lead their own troops to go on an expedition. Every old man made such a fuss that they are now kneeling in front of the Tai Chi Hall.
There are quite a few of them. If you want to kneel down, just kneel down..."
Yun Shang could tell that Luo Qingyan was in a bad mood and spoke with a bit of anger, so she smiled and said: "What does your Majesty have to argue with them? If they don't agree, it's easy to deal with it, just give it to them."
They had a good chance and allowed them to go out with the army. Since they were so righteous, the male members of the family who were over 16 years old should naturally go out with the army. There was no need to let them be ordinary soldiers. After all, they were also the descendants of loyal ministers and should be treated as ordinary soldiers.
The centurion still made it happen."
Luo Qingyan's eyes lit up when he heard this. He turned to look at Yun Shang with a smile and said: "You are the only one who can think of such a cunning and cunning trick. Well said, since they are so concerned about the country and the people, I
It should be perfected."
Yun Shang raised the corner of her mouth and smiled, but there was a bit of worry in her expression, "Now Xia is in trouble with foreign countries and has insufficient troops, which is really worrying. Your Majesty looks like he has a plan in mind."
Luo Qingyan heard the words, smiled, stretched out his hand and pulled Yun Shang to sit beside him, and then said softly: "It's not that I have a complete plan, I just believe that as long as we work together, there will be no obstacles that we can't overcome.
."
After a pause, he continued: "In order to fight against the outside world, we must first settle down the inside. Xiahou Jing's place is the top priority. On the surface, Zhao Yingjie and Sun Bingzhi led the troops to fight, but in fact, the Imperial Forest Army had already been quietly led by their leader Liu Ming.
After leaving the city, most of the Imperial Guards that can be seen in the palace are disguised as secret guards. The Imperial Guards are heading straight for Liu Cang. As long as Zheng Qiming finds out where their material reserves are, they can be set on fire.
All the food and grass were burned, and the soldiers who were stunned by the food and grass were captured."
"As for Cangjue Qingsu, because he was defeated by me last time, a person like him cannot bear such humiliation, so he mobilized most of the troops of Yelang Kingdom to Lingxi. This is a good opportunity
, I have written a letter to the emperor a few days ago, asking him to send troops to attack from the border of Yelang Kingdom and Ning Kingdom to catch him off guard. I would like to know whether Cangjue Qingsu wants to come back for rescue."
Luo Qingyan's face was full of determination, as if he had a good chance of winning. When Yun Shang heard what he said, the stone in her heart suddenly dropped a lot. After pondering for a moment, she gave Luo Qingyan some ideas and said: "Speaking of which
, I have a plan to deal with Xia Houjing."
Luo Qingyan raised his eyebrows, raised his eyes to look at Yun Shang, and said with a smile: "The Queen might as well tell you if you have any good ideas."
Yun Shang raised the corner of her mouth and smiled, and said softly: "I heard that when your Majesty led the troops, there was a rule, that is, no matter how difficult it is, you cannot touch the people's things?"
Luo Qingyan nodded, "What's wrong with this? The power of the people cannot be underestimated. If you offend the people, you may be truly defeated. The previous dynasty of the Xia Kingdom was the Shang Dynasty, and Emperor Yuan of the Xia Kingdom
At that time, they were just ordinary people, and their hands were just some hooligans and thieves. There were all kinds of messy people. Such a group of people rebelled, and their nature was hard to change. Emperor Yuan used extremely tough methods to ask them not to
Touch nothing of the common people."
"But the Shang Dynasty had an army of nearly one million, and they felt that they did not take the Yuan Emperor's gang of rogues into consideration. In the first battle, the Yuan Emperor was defeated steadily. The Shang Dynasty generals became arrogant and let their soldiers go.
He robbed people of their property and treated women unfavorably. As a result, the people rose up to attack him and supported Emperor Yuan one after another. They secretly conveyed many useful messages to Emperor Yuan. Emperor Yuan turned defeat into victory, eventually overthrowing the rule of the Shang Dynasty and establishing the Xia Kingdom."
Yun Shang nodded, "I think what your majesty said makes sense. I'm thinking that most of the so-called soldiers in Xia Houjing's hands are just ruffians. If they were soldiers from the former Shang Dynasty,
So, if you do all kinds of bad things, what should you do?"
Luo Qingyan shook his head and said with a smile: "You don't understand Xia Houjing very well. He has also led soldiers before. He certainly understands these simple principles and will definitely not let the soldiers in his hands make such mistakes."
Yun Shang raised her lips and smiled, "If he can't, then we won't create such trouble? Xiahou Jing has just raised his troops, and the army we sent to suppress has not yet arrived, and the people in Xiahou Jing's hands are rogues.
He is not a good person in the eyes of the people. If something happens, Your Majesty, who do you think the people will suspect? People spread word of mouth, and the power of rumors is very powerful. If Xia Houjing fails to handle it properly, he will definitely
It will make people angry."
Hearing this, Luo Qingyan was silent for a long time, then raised his eyes and gave Yun Shang a thumbs-up, and said with a smile: "To subjugate the enemy without fighting, the queen has a clever trick."
Yun Shang heard the joking in Luo Qingyan's words, raised her eyes and glared at Luo Qingyan fiercely.
"Mother, the soup is here." Qinyi's voice came from outside the palace, and Yun Shang stood up, sat down on a chair nearby, and said loudly: "Bring it in."
Qinyi responded and walked in, holding a small bowl with soup in her hand. Qinyi put the soup bowl on the stool next to Luo Qingyan's hand, and then said softly: "Your Majesty, this is your order."
The Longjing Bamboo Sunflower Soup is made from bamboo shoots and fish paste, and the fish used is His Majesty’s favorite mandarin fish.”
When Luo Qingyan heard this, he stood up, picked up the soup bowl with a smile, scooped out a spoonful of soup with a silver spoon, took a sip, squinted his eyes with a little satisfaction, and then simply
He put the spoon aside and took a bowl to drink.
"The bamboo fungus is very fresh, covering up the smell of fish." Luo Qingyan said softly.
"If you like it, just ask Qinyi to bring another bowl." Yun Shang looked on with a smile.
Luo Qingyan shook his head, "Forget it, I won't drink anymore. I'll be too full of soup to eat anything later."
Yun Shang looked at the clock and saw that it was almost time to have lunch, so she stopped trying to persuade him and asked someone to put the empty bowl away. Fang smiled and said, "Today's lunch is for Weiyang Palace, so I'll make less.
Most of the big tables were almost untouched yesterday."
Luo Qingyan responded, and then saw Liu Wen'an walking in from outside, holding a stack of memorials in his hand. Luo Qingyan sighed softly, watching Liu Wen'an put the memorials on the desk in the palace, and said silently
After looking at the thickness of the memorial, he was silent for a moment and then said: "Liu Wen'an, go and bring some tea to the ministers kneeling at the door of Taiji Hall, and say that I sympathize with their sincere and patriotic heart.
But now there are really no available generals in the court, and your lords are so worried about the country and the people, so I agreed to let all the men in their house who are over 16 years old join the army and serve in hundreds of households, so as to fulfill their patriotic enthusiasm.
"
Liu Wen'an's eyes widened, as if he still hadn't come back to his senses. After a moment of silence, he quickly agreed, then bent down and retreated.
Yun Shang couldn't help laughing when she looked at Luo Qingyan's appearance, "Why is Your Majesty so angry at Mr. Liu for no reason?"
Luo Qingyan sighed and said, "I'm not angry with him anymore, it's just that he has been by my side all day long, and I feel a little uncomfortable."
Hearing this, Yun Shang blinked, remembering what she had been speculating before, and asked: "With your Majesty's martial arts, wouldn't it be very easy to avoid Manager Liu?"
Luo Qingyan raised his eyebrows but did not respond. Yun Shang felt a little surprised, "Is it possible that Manager Liu's martial arts skills are higher than His Majesty's?"
"He is much older than me. If he wasn't a martial arts master, how could Xia Huanyu have let Liu Wen'an stay by his side for so many years." Luo Qingyan said softly, "It's just that Xia Huanyu kept Liu Wen'an by my side.
I'm afraid the purpose is not just to assist, but it may be a bit of surveillance, which I wouldn't be happy with."
Yun Shang was silent for a moment and then said: "The Supreme Emperor will not harm His Majesty no matter what."
Luo Qingyan nodded casually, stood up from his desk, walked behind the desk, and then took out a booklet to read. After flipping through a few books, he heard someone outside asking for permission.
"I have something to report to Your Majesty in the Assembly Hall." The visitor raised his voice outside.
Meeting hall? Hearing this, Luo Qingyan raised his face and said, "Come in."
A chamberlain walked in from outside the door. He was rather chubby in appearance. He had a pleasant appearance. As soon as he came in, he hurriedly knelt down in the hall and said, "Your Majesty, Lin Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel and Wang Yuanjun, former Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, are in the meeting hall.
They are making a fuss outside to see the Supreme Emperor, saying that the Supreme Emperor will definitely not pass the throne to His Highness the Crown Prince, and it is His Highness the Crown Prince who is plotting to seize the throne."
Yun Shang frowned when she heard this. She had some impression that Wang Yuanjun was from Xia Houjing. He had helped the Seventh Prince slander Luo Qingyan and her before. However, hadn't Xia Huanyu already issued an order to kill him before?
Has he become an official? Now that the Minister of Punishment is Li Qianmo, why did he suddenly come out to cause trouble? (To be continued)
