Chapter One Hundred and Twenty-Five on the Rewards for Merit
It was getting late, and the lights in the Divine Palace and Mingzhao Palace were brightly lit.
Sitting on the throne, Ji Qi was wearing a white singlet, holding her head with one hand and frowning as she looked at the memorial in the other hand.
Suddenly his face turned slightly pale and he coughed violently.
His body was shaking violently as a result, and the look between his brows seemed to be extremely painful.
At this time, the palace door was pushed open, and Lin Bai, dressed in green clothes, walked quickly into the Mingzhao Hall with a bowl of medicinal soup in his hands, and trotted all the way to Ji Qi's side.
"Your Majesty." He stretched out his hands, bowed his head, and handed over the porcelain bowl in his hand.
Hearing this, Ji Qi covered her mouth with one hand, turned to look at Lin Bai and took the porcelain bowl from Lin Bai's hand with the other hand.
Cough cough cough.
Just as he held the porcelain bowl, Ji Qi coughed violently again.
Lin Bai was shocked when he saw this, and quickly stretched out his hand to pat Jiqi's back gently, trying to relieve Jiqi's pain.
"Your Majesty... you must take care of your dragon body." He said with some worry.
Ji Qiping calmed down the changes in his inner breath for a while, then raised his head and drank all the soup in the porcelain bowl. Then he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Destiny has a destiny, how can it be changed by just taking care of yourself?"
"My body, I'm afraid..."
"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven! It is destiny to lead me, Wu Yang, to create a prosperous age in the world..." Lin Bai quickly comforted him.
Ji Qi shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It's just what others say. Do you really believe it?"
"In the end, we are all mortals..."
"Cough cough cough..."
After Ji Qi said this, he coughed violently again. He covered his mouth with his hand. When the coughing stopped, he looked at his palm and found that the palm was stained with a shocking red color.
.
Lin Bai's expression suddenly changed when he saw this, and he hurriedly said: "I'm going to ask the imperial doctor right now!"
But just after he finished speaking, before he could take a step, Ji Qi stretched out his hand, stopped Lin Bai, and said rather frustrated: "Don't go, they can't cure this disease."
Lin Bai frowned, but he seemed to agree with Ji Qi's words. He stopped for a moment, then looked at Ji Qi and said, "Over there at Bailong Mountain..."
"I have asked my concubine to ask for it for me. Wei Yangguan has promised to give me a pill. It is estimated that it is on the way here. Although it cannot cure my disease, it can at least extend my life for three years...
"
Ji Qi's words made the Tsing Yi Division eunuch's eyes suddenly turn red, and he didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Death is, of course, a terrible thing.
But what is more terrifying than death is knowing your own death date, but being unable to do anything but wait for it to arrive.
"No problem." Ji Qi glanced at Lin Bai, waved his hand, and said, "Three years are enough for me to finish what I need to do."
Lin Bai was silent, just bowing his head and saying nothing.
Ji Qi smiled, wiped the blood on his hands clean with the handkerchief on the table, then picked up the memorial he had put down before, looked at it and said: "Seven hanging holy mountains, after this year's
After a lot of screening, the quota has almost been drawn up, take a look."
As he spoke, he handed the memorial to Lin Bai's eyes.
Lin Bai took the memorial and took a closer look.
But I saw it read: Lingxu Mountain - Su Jue.
Kuijiu Mountain——Pei You.
Fengju Mountain——Wang Tingzhi.
Jiumi Mountain——Ji Shifei.
Huangxuan Mountain——Ying Xiangjun.
Fengming Mountain - to be determined.
Yunzhou Mountain——Li Sheyuan.
…
"How?" Seeing Lin Bai frowning at the list, Ji Qi smiled and asked meaningfully.
The eunuch in green pondered for a while, and then said: "Lingxu, Kuijiu, and Fengju have no objections to the ownership of Sanshan. These three people are all martial monarchs with good morals. The most important thing is that they are loyal to the court.
dedicated."
"What about the back?" Ji Qi asked.
The eunuch in blue was silent for a while, and then said: "The eldest princess is arrogant and arrogant. She has long determined to carve out a holy mountain by herself. Your Majesty gave her the Jiu Mi Mountain. Given the eldest princess's temperament, she may not be able to accept it."
Ji Qi thought for a while and responded: "The master concubine is indeed arrogant, but after the collapse of Yangshan Mountain, the spiritual energy in Wuyang world is already thin. It's just that the Liao people have repeatedly invaded. The Youyun royal family has been gone for so long.
I haven't reported Youyun's invasion of Yingshui County to the court yet, so I'm afraid there are still variables within Youyun. I feel uneasy if I don't decide the ownership of the Holy Mountain early."
Lin Bai frowned when he heard this: "But as far as I know, the 400,000 Youyun Army is already the top elite of Youyun. Their vitality was severely damaged in this battle. Logically speaking, they don't have decades to recuperate, so it is difficult to make any big waves...
…”
Ji Qi waved his hand and seemed unwilling to discuss this issue in detail. He asked again: "Where is the rest?"
Lin Bai's face changed slightly, and he added: "The late emperor did promise to give the Wuyang four tribes a sacred mountain. But Xia Xianyin, the orphan of the Xia family, is still serving in the Tianjian Division. Although the Xu family has been out of business recently, Xu Lian
He was even involved in the evil cult in the Palace of Eternal Life, but after all, he still has his reputation, so His Majesty just gave the location of the Holy Mountain to the Ying family, I'm afraid..."
"The Xu family is weak, and the Xia family's orphan is still young. Mr. Ying has indeed shown signs of taking credit and being arrogant in recent years, but..."
"I can't wait that long." Ji Qi interrupted the eunuch in blue.
Lin Bai fell silent immediately and said no more.
But Jiqi was obviously unwilling to let him go, and asked again: "Where are the rest."
"Fengming Mountain has a special status, and something went wrong in Sihai City. Maybe we can select someone from the Taixue Pavilion..." Lin Bai said this.
At this moment, a look of impatience appeared on Ji Qi's eyebrows, and he said in a deep voice: "You
You know, that's not what I asked."
When Ji Qi said these words, the green-robed eunuch immediately lowered his head, not daring to meet his eyes, and there were traces of sweat on his forehead.
When Ji Qi saw this, the anger between his brows softened a little, and his tone became softer: "Three mansions and nine divisions, civil and military officials, are all jackals, tigers and leopards. A Lin, don't let me think that this huge military force
There is not even a single person in the world who can treat you sincerely."
Lin Bai rarely saw Ji Qi like this.
To be precise, since Ji Qi succeeded to the throne, this was the first time that Lin Bai saw him like this and heard him say such words.
His heart softened, and he finally gritted his teeth and said: "Li Sheyuan is indeed General Li's adopted son, and he has quite a lot of prestige among the White Wolf Army. In addition, he killed Baili Fan this time, and his prestige is enough to give him a lot of prestige among the White Wolf Army."
Show your strength in the wolf army."
"But...the prince's side..."
"Do you also think that I am too ruthless towards Li Danqing?" Ji Qi interrupted the old man and asked.
"Your Majesty has your own reasons for doing things. I dare not speak nonsense." Lin Bai's heart trembled when he heard this, and he quickly lowered his head and said this.
Ji Qi stared at Lin Bai who looked frightened, a look of disappointment flashed between his eyebrows.
He sighed, stretched out his hand, took out a memorial from the desk in front of him, and said, "Speaking of which, Crown Prince Li did another big thing today."
"I heard about it, but it was just a misunderstanding. There was a villain who was causing trouble and inciting the prince and the concubine to be framed. The queen has made a clear decision and beheaded the villain." Lin Bai lowered his head and said.
"Don't rush to defend him. What I want to ask is, do you think Li Danqing is worthy of such a big job?" Ji Qi asked.
Lin Bai had difficulty knowing what Ji Qi's words meant, and hesitated for a moment.
Ji Qi narrowed his eyes, but this time he did not ask the truth. Instead, he handed the memorial in his hand to Lin Bai and said, "Take a look."
Lin Bai hesitantly opened the memorial and looked at it. The content on it made the eunuch in blue suddenly change his expression.
At that time, Ji Qi stretched out her hand and knocked on the desk in front of her, whispering.
"They are all meritorious ministers. We can't just reward Li Danqing. If word spreads, won't it make the world think that I don't know the truth?"
Lin Bai's expression was a little excited, but he tried his best to contain it. He just cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, you are wise!"
And the content written on that memorial was also extremely simple.
…
The people of Yingshui County have done meritorious service in defending their territory. Now that they have returned in triumph, they should be rewarded for their merits.
Lord Xiwen entered the Tianjian Department and became the governor.
After writing Liu Yanzhen, Song Tonger entered Shenhesi and became the governor.
Following Yu Chiwan, Ning Jiu entered the Longxiang Mansion and became Shangqing.
Zhu Lu Shude, Shi Ziju, Jiang Yu, and Luo Anan entered Taixue Pavilion and became red-robed bachelors.
