The next day, Meng Li went to court.
It took the emperor a long time to arrive, and then he praised Meng Li and Vice General Li in front of all the civil and military officials.
Well, verbal rewards.
There was a lot of rambling, just a little verbal reward, or words of praise said with squinting eyes.
His appearance was not serious at all, but very casual, without any dignity or nobility of being an emperor.
Prime Minister You couldn't stand it any longer, and tactfully reminded the emperor if there was any substantial reward.
Let’s have some substance.
Others go to the front line to fight and go through life and death. If they don't pay attention, they will die. Now, according to the rules, they will be rewarded.
You don’t even mean it, what do people think
Who will be willing to work for you in the future
If he can't win the hearts of the people, the current emperor doesn't even want to think about the hearts of his ministers.
The official position of the National Preceptor is high, and the National Preceptor is not suitable for appointment to other official positions, but he can be rewarded and so on.
Vice General Li should also be promoted to an official position or something.
And those soldiers should be aware of it.
The emperor is not stupid and understands, but when he thinks of such an expense, it really hurts his heart.
Then he promoted Lieutenant General Li to a first-level official position. The official position was free of charge, so it didn't matter.
But when I saw Meng Lichou.
What kind of rewards are there? The National Preceptor's Office has everything. There are a lot of things accumulated over the years.
There were a few things he was still thinking about.
What can I get my hands on
He cleared his throat:
"Master, what do you want?"
Meng Li was speechless, what do you want
She said innocently:
"This is my duty. It is natural for me to serve the country. I..."
Before Meng Li finished speaking, the emperor rushed over and said with a smile:
"Nothing you want?"
"That's okay, the Imperial Master is really a good Imperial Master."
Meng Li:…
The emperor is really...
Finally, the emperor thought about it and decided to hold a celebration banquet.
Since there's nothing you want, I'll treat you to dinner.
Let’s eat at the main office, right
Although it is understandable for people to hold celebration banquets after returning from war, the emperor's banquets were also too many.
Usually you can just find any reason to hold it.
What could Meng Li do? He could only accept it.
The emperor was slow to do anything else, but when he held an entertainment project like a celebration banquet, it was implemented quite quickly.
The next night, he called the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to attend the banquet.
Meng Li asked Gu Yi to follow her, but Gu Yi said she was not in good health, so she decided not to go.
Meng Li gave up.
Then the banquet started, and after some greetings, Meng Li moved forward, close to the emperor.
Opposite Meng Li is King An.
King An was good-looking but thin. He was the son of Concubine Shou. He had just grown up and was not yet married.
King An looked at Meng Li, nodded and smiled very politely.
He also toasted Meng Li with a glass of wine.
Meng Li's eyes flashed, and he had some plans in his mind.
The emperor was very happy. There were many dancers dancing at the celebration banquet, and he kept cheering.
This made some more upright veterans couldn't help but hold their foreheads.
Really blind.
The emperor was in high spirits, not because he was happy to drive away the foreigners, but because he saw that the audience was full of his courtiers, that the dancing women were at his fingertips, and that he could enjoy all the fine wines and delicacies.
Meng Li smiled the whole time.
Some people who were willing to be friends with her offered her a glass of wine.
The emperor fell in love with the woman and actually ordered it like a dish in front of many people.
Most of the women who were chosen after being admitted to the harem looked extremely surprised. It was simply their dream to become the emperor's woman.
Will glory and wealth be far away in the future
Although I know that there are many women in the harem who have been favored by the emperor once or several times and then thrown aside, and now they are living a very miserable life.
But they somehow feel that they don't know how to do it, and people always want to give it a try and are very confident in themselves.
Finally, after the banquet was over, Meng Li returned to the Imperial Master's Mansion.
Let the maid wait for her to sleep, turn out the lights, and hear a voice in the dark night:
"Does this king know you?"
Meng Li:…
The Demon King is very persistent on this issue.
Ask once a day for these two days.
Meng Li turned over and ignored the Demon King.
But her spirit was tense, and she felt someone at the door.
Doesn’t the Demon King know
Hum.
No wonder he was still in her room so late, probably because he wanted to see her joke.
Meng Li said quietly:
"Come in, it's cold outside, don't freeze."
assassin:…
You're so exposed, is it too late to leave now
Forget it, let’s go.
The assassin planned to leave, but Meng Li didn't give him a chance to leave. He stood up, put on his windbreaker, picked up his sword and chased after him.
This assassin was so good that Meng Li caught him without any effort.
The assassin cursed angrily at Meng Li:
"You vicious woman, I'm going to kill you..."
"Kill me to avenge your benefactor?" Meng Li asked with raised eyebrows.
Most assassins use lines like this.
For the sake of my benefactor, I completely cut off the relationship.
It is a personal behavior.
What's even more exaggerated is that I don't know who my benefactor is.
Or resolutely not to say the benefactor's name or cause trouble to the benefactor.
But Meng Li felt that it should be someone sent over there. Firstly, he felt a headache after killing their famous general Youda. Secondly, he felt that it would be more difficult to enter the imperial family with her around
The assassin was stunned for a moment.
Can you count
How do you know that this is what he said
Meng Li looked at the assassin in a daze, and stretched out his hand to pull off his black scarf. Sure enough, his face looked different from the people of Daqi. It was a little more three-dimensional, and he looked like a foreigner at first glance.
Meng Li sighed:
"It's really hard work."
Meng Li asked the guards to take the person down and lock him up. He would just hand it over to the government tomorrow.
Too lazy to bother with these things.
The guards at the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion were all very frightened. The leader of the guards confessed to Meng Li, saying that he had been negligent and had not guarded the Imperial Preceptor properly and allowed people to sneak in.
Meng Li said calmly:
"I know I was wrong, and I will be fined three months of silver."
"All punished."
It's okay to assassinate her, but what I'm afraid of is touching Gu Yi. Gu Yi is not in good health, so how can he withstand the torture.
She released her mental power and looked at Gu Yi. Gu Yi had already gotten up, and a servant was talking to him. Meng Li guessed that they were talking about things here.
He casually told the guards that Gu Yi must strengthen his defense and ensure Gu Yi's safety.
If something happens, protect that side immediately.
Meng Li sighed. This was also the reason why she didn't like to get too close to others.
When you have people you care about, you have weaknesses.
What should she do if her enemy threatens her with someone she cares about
After giving these instructions, Meng Li returned to the room. The Demon King had left. The next day, Meng Li got up.
As usual, I went to court and waited until Eunuch Jia Zhengchu said:
"Your Majesty, your dragon body is not in good condition today..."
After a lot of verbosity, he just won't come. If you have a memorial, submit it to the emperor. The emperor will read it and then retreat.
Meng Li felt that he really knew how to forget it.
Because she guessed on the way that the emperor would definitely not be able to get up and come to court. After all, the banquet last night was so fun.
