Escorting food and grass is a major event, especially this time, it is related to the success or failure of the entire battle situation, and it is even more sloppy.
The ministers of civil and military affairs quarreled in the main hall for a long time, and no suitable candidate was selected. The emperor was so irritated by them that he threw his sleeves away in public, leaving a group of ministers standing on the main hall and looking at each other.
"Lin Xiang, what's the matter?"
"Prime Minister, what's going on here?"
Whether it is a civil officer or a military officer, at this time, the two emperors are surrounded by the henchmen, hoping that they can come up with a good way.
Lin Xiang and You Xiang had a straight face, and both of them tacitly did not speak.
What can they do
This battle is of great importance, and King Xiao is staring at him. Who knows if sending food and grass to the front line will be robbed by King Xiao again.
At that time, if he really wants to lose to Northern Li because of the failure of food and grass supply, the emperor will never let the person who escorts the food and grass, and the person who provides the choice of people will be unlucky.
At this time, a little bit of brains are popping up, and the emperor can only decide for himself.
The emperor understood the thoughts of those ministers in his heart, but it was because he understood that he was angry.
The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty each have their own careful thoughts, and even if they encounter such a major event, they are not willing to rest assured in private and share their worries for the king.
"A group of trash, what's the use of keeping that group of trash?" He hides in case of trouble, what's the use of keeping that group of people
However, he could not slaughter all the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.
"Damn things." The emperor slapped the table angrily, and sat on the dragon chair for a long time without recovering.
At this time, no one dared to disturb the emperor at all. The eunuchs and palace maids stayed far away, for fear of accidentally touching the emperor's bad head.
"I want to see the emperor." At this time, the seventh prince asked to see the emperor outside the hall.
"His Royal Highness, the emperor is angry at this time, do you think you will come back later?" The eunuch knew that the seventh prince was pampering him at this time, but he really dared not go in at this time.
The seventh prince's face froze, and he shook his head: "I know that the royal father is angry, and it is because the royal father is angry that I want to go in. Hurry up and report that I want to enter the royal father. If the royal father does not tell me, I will go back."
"Your Highness..." The eunuch looked embarrassed.
At this time, the emperor, whose anger had subsided, heard the voice outside and asked, "Who is outside?"
The eunuch's scalp was numb. At this time, he didn't care about being afraid. He walked in with trepidation, knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Highness asks to see you."
"Xiao Qi? Let him come in." Although the emperor was anxious about the front line, he had no intention of dealing with it now.
After the seventh prince came in, he respectfully bowed to the emperor, and when the emperor called, did he explain his intention: "Father, my son is not happy to hear that father is unhappy. When you are angry, you can accompany your father. When your father does not want your father to be angry, you are alone."
The seventh prince looked at the emperor with undisguised worry in his eyes.
When the emperor heard this, he didn't even bother to mention it, "My little seven has a heart, come, come to me."
The seventh prince was too young, standing in front of the desk, the emperor could hardly see anyone.
The seventh prince came to the emperor, raised his head, and asked with concern: "Father, are you not angry anymore?"
"The father is not angry, and anger can't solve the problem." The emperor touched the head of the seventh prince, "Don't worry, Xiaoqi, the father, the emperor, there is nothing in this world that the father cannot do."
"Well, the father is the most powerful. There is no one more powerful than the father in this world." The seventh prince nodded and looked at the emperor with admiration.
The emperor was inexplicably in a good mood. Seeing that it was time for lunch, he left the seventh prince to eat together. At the dinner table, the Seventh Prince did not adhere to the habit of not talking when eating or sleeping, but would say a few words from time to time, or give the emperor a dish, "Father, this is delicious."
"Father, you have a taste..."
After a meal, the emperor was very happy, "In the future, Xiao Qi will often come to accompany the emperor to eat."
"Okay, as long as the father doesn't think Xiaoqi is noisy, the mother always says that Xiaoqi is too noisy." The seventh prince scratched his head embarrassedly, looking dumbfounded.
"Father the emperor never dislikes Xiaoqi." The emperor's love for the seventh prince Yue Yue.
"Then I will often come to accompany the emperor for dinner in the future." The seventh prince is also very discerning. Knowing that the emperor has official business, he proposed to go back after a short rest, and said with concern before leaving: "Father, the mother said you had better be busy. , let Xiaoqi not disturb the father. Royal father, don't be too tired, the son and the minister are too young to help the father, but brother Zi'an and the prince are adults, you can let them do the hard work. Still Aunt Fu Shou and Aunt Fu An are also adults, so they can all help the royal father."
Only the seventh prince who is still young can say this. If it were the prince and Prince An, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of the emperor.
When the emperor heard the childish words of the seventh prince, he didn't take it to heart. He just patted his head and asked him to study hard, grow up as soon as possible, and share his worries.
The seventh prince left happily, and the eunuch gave the emperor new tea and praised the seventh prince at the right time. Seeing that the emperor was still in a good mood, he joked: "The seventh prince is still a child, and he actually said that he would ask a few princesses to help him. How can the princesses help with the major matters."
"Princess?" The emperor's eyes lit up, he had a suitable candidate.
"Xiao Qi is really my lucky star." The emperor was in a good mood, the eunuch looked puzzled, and the next second he saw the emperor shouting: "Come here, make a decree."
The emperor proposed the concubine of Princess Fu'an, and the third master of the Cui family escorted grain and grass to the border, and issued an imperial decree on the same day.
As soon as the imperial decree came, Cui Sanye was immediately stunned. Dongwen's concubine, even if the princess gets married, the concubine has no real power, and because of the rebellion of the concubine in Nanman, the countries are more defensive against the concubine. Give it to him, it's simply...
"It's unbelievable, how could the emperor let me escort grain and grass?" Cui Sanye held the imperial decree and couldn't recover for a long time.
Princess Fu'an was well informed, and said happily: "It's Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi made the emperor think of you only with a few words. Xiao Qi really has a heart, and she will never forget my aunt."
Princess Fu'an is really happy. The important thing is not what benefits this incident will bring, but that her husband has entered the emperor's eyes. After doing this, she will have a higher status in the emperor's heart.
The imperial decree has been issued, no matter what Cui Sanye thinks, this errand is still to come and needs to be done well.
Although no one from the Cui family had entered the court as an official, they knew exactly what was going on in the court. They knew that escorting food and grass was not a good job, and the brothers were quite worried. It was not until the head of the Cui family said a word that the brothers of the Cui family were relieved.
"The last batch of food and grass was robbed, which was King Xiao's warning to the emperor. Although King Xiao has revenge, he is a man of the world. He is very aware of the importance of this batch of food and grass, and he will never touch this batch of food and grass. , even in the face of the Cui family."
With these words, Cui Sanye has no worries, and the emperor who has solved the important matters in his heart is also relaxed.
But at this time, another scandal broke out in the Ci'en Hall, which was ignored by the emperor and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty...
[Author's digression]: I'm so tired, there are only four shifts today. I didn't work all day, so I only wrote four more... I really felt that I was useless to a certain level.
