"Yes." When all the people got their lives, Ning Feng went out to deliver the will of Jiang Muchen.
The rest of them are around Jiang Muchen to discuss the plot against Bai Wuchen.
When Ning Feng returned to the camp, he saw Jiang Muchen leave Qu Yan alone, and listened to him report the trend of the household silver.
"Emperor..." After handing Jiang Muchen the folded book, Qu Yan looks like he is ready to talk and stops. He doesn't know whether to say it or not.
Jiang Muchen glances at quyan, who is standing in front of him. He looks like he wants to say something but doesn't dare to say it. With Jiang Muchen's shrewdness, can he not see quyan's tricks? Jiang Muchen looks at the fold in his hand and asks quyan, "if you have anything, just say it."
Ning Feng stands behind Jiang Muchen and silently observes quyan.
Although Qu Yan stood respectfully in front of the emperor, his face was also cautious, but his evasive eyes showed that his heart was not as loyal to protect the Lord as he showed.
Although Qu Yan joined the emperor, he didn't follow the emperor as he was growing up. Naturally, his loyalty can't be the same as himself. In addition, Qu Yan tried to cram Qu Jingqing into Chen's palace for several times, but he was blocked by the emperor. It's hard to guarantee that this man's heart would not be filled with hatred. So we should be careful.
Thinking of this, Ning Feng's gaze at Qu Yan has become a light of caution and examination.
"Yes." Seeing that Jiang Muchen finally asked, Qu Yan's eyes flashed a flash of joy, but on the surface, he pondered for a moment, and then slowly opened his mouth. "The emperor, Weichen thought that no matter who hung the head of Yuqian emperor on the wall, the purpose of this person must be to blacken the emperor. Although the emperor has already ascended the throne, the clans in Beijing may not really attach themselves, and Haiquan still holds the legitimate sons and daughters of these clans in his hands. If the emperor doesn't take advantage of them, he is afraid that there will be many changes in the future. What's more, the Emperor didn't kill them because he thought about the relationship with these scholars in the past. Just like the government of the auxiliary state, even if old prince Gu didn't sign and seal the persuasion form, you still haven't investigated and convicted. However, in their eyes, your benevolence is only for acting. Only when they are truly bound together and have common interests, can these scholars who are in charge of the word "Li" really stand behind you. "
Qu Yan's analysis sentence is for Jiang Muchen to consider. He didn't mention his own interests at all. With the sincere expression on his face, it makes people feel that he is very loyal to Jiang Muchen.
Even Ning Feng, who had been guarding against him, saw a trace of identification after listening to Qu Yan's analysis.
When the emperor ascended the throne for a long time, many ministers and counselors proposed that the emperor still had only princess Chu in his heart. They were determined not to bring the ladies of all the aristocratic families into the harem, and the ministers could do nothing.
What's more, in today's three parts of the world, the people the emperor wants to buy are not only the families who are under house arrest in the capital, but also the ministers and counselors who have been defeated by the emperor. Without benefit from it, those people will surely think that even if they follow Chen Wang down the river and mountains, they will not be reused even if they are afraid. Over time, the hearts of the people will be lax.
However, Qu Yan's analysis only focused on the government of the auxiliary state, which made Ning Feng turn his eyes to Jiang Muchen carefully, and he was not sure what the emperor thought. However, Ning Feng is very clear about Qu Yan's intention.
At this time, Qu Yan wanted to show his loyalty to the emperor, but also wanted to discredit the government of the state of Fu and make it the first bird. I have to say, it's really hard for Qu Yan's intention.
However, all these decisions depend on the emperor's consideration.
In such a way, Ning Feng's heart is dark and tight. He can't help but think of a clean lotus like and holy face. However, he pays more attention to Jiang Muchen's expression after hearing this.
Jiang Muchen has seen through quyan's mind and quietly let quyan finish his speech. He asked calmly, "then, what does qushangshu think I should do to truly accept the hearts of all the clans? I think Qu Shangshu already has an excellent way in mind. "
It's easy for Jiang Muchen to bypass the government of the auxiliary state and directly ask quyan what's up.
If it is true, seeing that emperor Dexia has listened to his advice, Qu Yan cannot help but rejoice, but he can't help but restrain his complacency. His face is still full of loyalty and he said: "the emperor, in the view of his officials, should enrich the imperial palace as soon as possible, so that the royal family can be involved with each other. This is the best policy. In this way, we can accept these scholars without a single soldier, and let the people of the Western Chu see the return of their hearts. In addition, we can also enrich the imperial palace? And since the last time the emperor was ambushed and injured, the wound has not been properly recuperated, and there are no intimate concubines around. Weichen is really worried about the emperor's dragon body. Please understand his thoughts! "
At the end of the speech, Qu Yan did not open his mouth. He knew that the more he spoke, the more suspicions the emperor would have.
Once the emperor decides to have plenty of empresses and beauties, it's impossible for him to be generous. He should not only accept all the aristocratic families in Beijing, but also pacify the generals and officials who follow him. At that time, there will be his contribution to quyan. It will be easier for Jingqing to enter the palace and become a concubine.After hearing Qu Yan's words, Jiang Muchen plays with the unofficial letter in his hand. His eyes are frosty and cold.
Qu Yan is full of expectation. At this time, he can't get the response from dexidi. He is afraid. He secretly looks up at Ning Feng, but finds that his face is calm, but there is a little worry in his eyes.
This makes Qu Yan's original determination gradually become uneasy. He doesn't understand what de Xi is trying to write.
"You are loyal." For a while, Jiang Muchen slowly spits out this sentence.
When Qu Yan heard this, he immediately saw a flattering smile on his face. He was about to say thank you. Jiang Muchen then said, "but you still don't think about what you do. There are military doctors and imperial doctors in this camp. If they take care of my body, will something go wrong? Have you ever seen the emperor's personal expedition with his concubines? Do you let the concubines who can only please the king go with you, really for the sake of my dragon body? What's more, knowing that all the people in Haiquan's hands are the legitimate sons and daughters, you let me marry those concubines into the palace. Do you want the whole world to laugh at my incompetence and rely on the concubines to stabilize their own rivers and mountains? Or do you want to make Haiquan, Chu, Feiyang and other people laugh at my eagerness to ascend the throne and hold the throne, even the identity of a woman in the harem? Qu Yan, don't forget that you are the Minister of the Ministry of the household. You are neither the imperial concubine nor the chief steward of the imperial palace. I don't want you to worry about the affairs of the Imperial Palace, and I don't need your help. Or do you want to change your head office to do it? Do you want me to give you all this hard work? "
Unexpectedly, Jiang Muchen's silent reply was extremely cold and sharp. After being questioned by Jiang Muchen for a while, Qu Yan's face was pale and his lips were trembling. He knelt down on the ground with a thump. His forehead was cold and sweaty, and his cheeks were dripping into his lapel. His eyes were fixed on the ground, and he dared not look at Jiang Muchen directly. He begged for mercy with trembling. "Damn me, I shouldn't speculate about my holy will, I shouldn't have one 's own way of doing things. Please punish the emperor. "
Seeing Qu Yan's greedy for life and fear of death, Jiang Muchen saw a trace of disgust and said in a cold voice, "go out and lead the army for ten times, and give a small punishment and a big admonition. If there is a next time, I will not spare you."
After the punishment, Qu Yan was unwilling to say anything more. He kowtowed and said, "thank the emperor, and the minister is the leader."
At the end of the speech, Qu Yan stood up and quit the camp. After a while, the sound of execution was introduced into the camp.
Listening to the sound of the army staff beating on the body, Jiang Muchen frowned, opened the letter again, and looked at the contents carefully.
However, the more you read down, the colder Jiang Muchen's face will become, wrapped in a cold breath. Ning Feng's heart was tense, and he didn't understand the message in the text, which could make the emperor change so much.
"Emperor, I don't know what else can make the emperor so sad?" Ning Feng asked in a low voice, but his eyes were fixed on his toes, and he didn't look at Jiang Muchen's letter cleverly.
"Dream Cough... " Jiang Muchen clenched his hands into a fist, and his face was very solemn and solemn. However, his thoughts remained in the contents of the letter. As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized his blunder and changed his way: "it was found that a man escaped from the valley at night. If my guess is correct, it must be the carriage of Princess Chu. "
When he finished speaking, he saw that Jiang Muchen had just broken the ice when he was facing quyan, and the two dark eyebrows had already been screwed up. There was deep worry and excitement in the cold bloodthirsty eyes. Even the tone when he just uttered the word "Princess Chu" was slightly trembling.
When Ning Feng heard this, he was shocked. He knelt down immediately and pleaded: "emperor, Princess Chu is just a woman. You can't give up the whole country for one woman. Now we are fighting with King Hai of Chu. The war around the West Chu has begun. We have no more hands to catch Princess Chu. What's more, the emperor's new king ascends the throne, and virtue is extremely important. How can we let people in the world for a woman... "
Did Jiang Muchen expect that his words attracted such a big reaction from Ning Feng, and his pent up anger broke out in a flash. Before Ning Feng could finish his exhortation, he saw Jiang Muchen clap his hand to the table, pointing to Ning Feng and said angrily, "when did I say that I gave up the whole river and mountain for a daughter? Ning Feng, do you think that after all these years of following me, I dare not kill you? "
Ning Feng looked down and listened to Emperor Dexia's scolding. His face was frightened, but his expression was firm. He was not afraid of the emperor's power and began to persuade Jiang Muchen, "emperor, Weichen absolutely dare not have such an idea. However, Weichen has been with the emperor for so many years. He still knows a little about the emperor's mind. But no matter how much the emperor likes Princess Chu in his heart, now she is always his wife. If you do something to her, the common people all over the world will think that the emperor is for the sake of the princess of Chu, so they will declare the king of Chu as a traitor to the world. Emperor, your reputation can't be damaged by a woman's hand. "
Ning Feng said more excited, the heart is also decided not to let the emperor in this matter confused.
at the beginning of the Empress Dowager in order to set up an eyeliner near Chen Wang, so that the king of Xi Jing to the king of the wedding, giving the wedding king and the clouds, a thousand dreams.Chen Wang finally let Yuqian take back the imperial edict of Xijing emperor and terminate his engagement with yunqianmeng. How can he repent afterwards? What's more, Yun qianmeng is now the imperial concubine of the king of Chu. If there's gossip between him and the emperor, it's absolutely a fatal blow to the emperor Dexi who hasn't settled down in the Dragon chair.
"Enough." A low roar with anger came out of Jiang Muchen's mouth. He stood up abruptly, pointed to Ning Feng and said angrily, "you don't need to teach me how to sit on this river and mountain. You just need to do your own job well. You don't need to tell me what to do. "
"Emperor..." After hearing Jiang Muchen's words, Ning Feng raised his head in shock. He was about to open his mouth when he saw Jiang Muchen raise his hand to shut him up.
Jiang Muchen closed his eyes, took a deep breath, calmed down his mood, and spoke to Ning Feng for a while. "Ning Feng, I understand in my heart that all you have done is for my good. However, I didn't mention cloud thousand dreams for her sake. General Xuanwu has ordered people to go to the valley to investigate, but there is no trace of Princess Tai. In the whole valley, there is only one house that has been burned down. What's hidden in it? Only those who escape from the valley know. But at this time, I found a runaway carriage. If my guess is right, Yun qianmeng must have left with Taifei. Do you think I'm not worried about the fact that the imperial concubine has suffered so much for me? "
"Emperor It's Weichen who wrongly blamed the Emperor... " Ning Feng didn't expect that there were still these things in it. For a while, he felt that he had misunderstood the emperor and thought of the emperor as a man who was greedy for women. He felt more and more guilty for the emperor.
"Get up." Jiang Muchen understood Ning Feng's loyalty, and his angry tone gradually eased down. He quietly let Ning Feng get up.
"Emperor Who's out there? " Ning Feng was about to speak about Princess Yuande, but suddenly he turned around and walked out of the tent. His sword had gone out of its sheath, and he suddenly opened the tent curtain, but he saw Qu Yan, covering his buttocks and grinning, standing outside the tent.
"Lord Qu, the execution is over?" Ning Feng stares at quyan with cold eyes, but he doesn't like him at all. Mingming is Qu's family, but in order to compete with Qu Lingao for the position of Prince in the government of the auxiliary state, he joined the emperor. This kind of person who betrayed his ancestors disgusted Ning Feng most.
The sudden appearance of Ning Feng startled Qu Yan. Looking at the point of his sword, Qu Yan held back his pain and asked Ning Feng pleasantly, "Ning bodyguard and Weichen have already been punished. They are going to report to the emperor."
Seeing Qu Yan's twisted smile, Ning Feng's eyes immediately crossed a trace of disgust, and his tone was cold: "I will tell the emperor that Qu adult is injured, so I'd better go back to his camp to rest. Don't stay here any longer, or the sword in my hand doesn't recognize people. "
"Yes, Weichen knows." Qu Yan, however, was still smiling brilliantly as if he could not see Ning Feng's indifference to him, and then he limped away with his back.
Ning Feng stared at quyan's back until he went far away, then he put away his sword and went back to camp.
"What's going on out there?" At this time, Jiang Muchen has put down his dream and stood in front of the sheepskin map hanging in the tent again to study the battle plan.
"The execution of Qu Shangshu's ten army staff is over." He briefly mentioned xiaquyan, but Ning Feng didn't say much about the outside world.
Seeing that emperor Dexi was studying the map attentively, Ning Feng thought for a moment, or whispered, "emperor, why does emperor always refuse to send Qu Jingqing to the palace as a concubine? Although Qu Shangshu's words today are selfish, they still have a certain sense after careful consideration. At the beginning, Emperor Yuqian not only tried to maintain the balance of power in the imperial court, but also brought the women from Rongrong's merchant family into the harem as concubines. Why don't the emperor take the opportunity to win over the powerful people in Beijing, and make the generals who follow the emperor live and die more loyal to the emperor? In order to avoid Qu Yan always thinking about the position of the imperial concubine. "
"I'm not in the mood to be a concubine now. The river and the mountain are broken. The two kings make a mess. The imperial concubine is in Chu Feiyang's hands. Can I take the imperial concubine at this time? In this way, the people all over the world are afraid that they will think that I am a despot who only cares about his own pleasure. They even don't care about the life and death of their mother and concubine. They are afraid that it will backfire. " Jiang Muchen shook his head and refused Ning Feng's suggestion without hesitation. It's just that in the eyes that stare at the map, it seems that they have a beautiful and refined face, which is lingering in the heart for a long time
Seeing that emperor Dexi's mind had been determined, Ning Feng knew that it was useless to say more, so he changed the topic and stopped worrying about the matter of accepting the imperial concubine. "I don't understand that the ten military staffs are not important. Since the Emperor didn't want to accept the imperial concubine, why don't he punish Qu Shangshu severely and let him never dare to make such an idea again?"
"Although Qu Yan's careful thinking is more, he is a good minister of the household. In the past few months, our army has put enough grain in storage, and the silver on the account books is also very rich, which shows that he has the ability to manage money. Since I have clearly rejected his request and cut off Qu Jingqing's hope of entering the palace, if I beat him half dead, I'm afraid that Qu Yan may not really manage the household for me in the future. Today, the Western Chu kingdom is divided into three parts, even the officials in the court are divided into three parts. Although some of my advisers are proficient in financial management, Qu Yan is the only one who knows the most about the state treasury, silver and a series of rules of the court. At this time, it's just the time of employing people. I don't want to have too big gap with my subjects in such matters. Today's ten army staff should be Qu Yan's memory, lest he always think about what doesn't belong to him. " When talking about this, Jiang Muchen has taken a close look at the household fold presented by Fang caiquyan. He sees that the silver trend in the fold is clear and clear, and all the expenses are listed in the fold, which makes people clear at a glance. Jiang Muchen's picky eyes also show a touch of appreciation."The emperor is wise." Seeing that the emperor de Xi was satisfied with quyan's account book after reading it, Ning Feng immediately complied with the opening.
However, Jiang Muchen's eyebrows are always locked, and there is still a worried color between them.
When Ning Feng looked at it, he knew why the emperor was upset. He thought for a moment. Then he asked in a low voice, "emperor, since there is a trace of Princess Chu now, why don't you let Weichen go to rescue Taifei?"
Jiang Muchen's fingers on the map mountain give a slight pause, then he turns around and looks at Ning Feng, but his eyes are frosty
"Dad, what's the matter with you?" As soon as Qu Yan returned to the camp, he saw Qu Jingqing, dressed as a Confucian scholar, welcome him.
Seeing Qu Yan's sweat all over his head and a color of pain looming on his face, Qu Jingqing hurriedly added a cushion to his chair, which carefully helped him to sit down. He was puzzled deeply in his beautiful eyes, and asked anxiously in his voice, "Dad, what's the matter with you? Why did you go to the Emperor 's camp and get back injured? "
"Ouch, my waist..." When I accidentally met the hard chair, Qu Yan cried out. Suddenly, my face was wrinkling painfully. I kept sucking the air conditioner in my mouth, and it was a long time before I calmed down.
Looking at Qu Jingqing dressed as a man in front of her, the pain on Qu Yan's body hasn't gone away yet, but the pain in her heart is floating up again. If he didn't want Jingqing to be a concubine in the palace, would he let his daughter come to the barracks with him to suffer? But now a few months have passed. The emperor's mind is on the war, and his love for men and women has not been revealed. I was just opened a head, was warned of a board, it is really anxious.
Remembering what he had just heard outside the barracks, Qu Yan sighed heavily, and then opened his mouth. "It wasn't to persuade the emperor to accept the imperial concubine that he angered the emperor and punished my ten army staff. It was thought that the emperor and the king of Chu were irreconcilable, and the emperor had no such thoughts about cloud thousand dreams. But, alas, Jingqing, my father will send you to another hospital outside Beijing tomorrow. How can you always be a lady in a barracks full of men? If your identity is found, not only your life's reputation will be destroyed, but also our family will be questioned by the emperor. You don't see the face of the Emperor just now. You really want to eat like a man! "
At this point, Qu Yan's face is already a layer of gray color, apparently dead about Qu Jingqing's entering the palace to be a concubine. It's better to take advantage of the fact that no one has found Jingqing before sending her away, and then to see a family match for her.
Qu Jingqing listened to Qu Yan's advice, but there was a hint of sarcasm on his delicate face. "My father, my daughter is not married to the emperor. What's more, the original King Chen has become the emperor of Dexia. My daughter has been waiting for so long. Do you want to let her vacate the position of the harem to others? No matter what the emperor's Thoughts on that bitch of yunqianmeng, Jiang Muchen is the man I like. I will not let other women take over him. Dad, you should have a good rest. My daughter has her own opinion. "
At the end of the speech, Qu Jingqing led the little schoolboy behind him to run out of the camp. Qu Yan wanted to open his mouth and stop her, but as soon as he stood up, the pain behind him made him speechless.
