"What a descendant of Lord Wu'an, who became famous all over the world in the first battle, he is indeed a descendant of Bai Qi!" Li Shimin couldn't help but admire, this battle was definitely a great victory.

Not only suppressed the Chenla rebellion, but also wiped out the [-] Pyu army. It was simply too strong. This battle showed the majesty of the Tang Dynasty.

Wei Zheng and other literati couldn't help but twitch their mouths, they were all frightened by the battle of Meigong River.

Nima, wipe out the enemy.

Doesn't this mean that none of the [-] troops left behind, this is indeed a descendant of Bai Qi, and it is simply neat.

"Your Majesty, the Piao Kingdom obviously wants to open up Zhenla, and then invade Jiaozhou and seize our Jiaozhou granary. Bai Qi has made a great contribution this time!" Hou Junji immediately started to become an important official for Bai Qi.

Chapter 341 Hussar General

Hou Junji is not stupid, as long as Wang Xiu's halo is still there, he can't do anything to Wang Xiu.

But as long as the halo on Wang Xiu's body is removed, this kid can be easily killed. After all, this kid is only a champion, and Bai Qi's ancestor is Lord Wu An.

A character who is awesome to the extreme.

As long as he pushes Bai Qi up, he will make Wang Xiu unhappy, which is why he wants to play the battle report himself this time.

He knew in his heart that the emperor greatly appreciated such a capable minister and general, and would definitely reward him heavily.

Sure enough, Li Shimin nodded after hearing the words, and said with a smile: "It makes sense, the Piao Kingdom is trying to harm our Jiaozhou, and it even sent troops to our Tang Dynasty. This is a provocation to our Tang Dynasty."

"Bai Qi brazenly confronted the enemy, he is definitely a hero. If you have meritorious service, you should be rewarded. This is a very simple truth."

To be honest, on the one hand, he was a little regretful that his son-in-law Wang Xiuli did not get the meritorious service, and on the other hand, he was a little lucky, because if Wang Xiu made more meritorious deeds, he would really be the master.

But what Hou Junji said makes sense, it is impossible to have credit but not reward, that would hurt people's hearts.

After all, Bai Qi is also a descendant of Mr. Wu An, and he has won many battles. This is also a super talent, so it is impossible not to reward him.

After thinking about it for a while, he had an idea directly.

"Bai Qi was granted the title of Earl of Bravery, eight hundred households in the city, and an imperial sword. When Bai Qi has made enough contributions, I will allow him to restore Bai Qi's honor as Lord Wu'an and rectify his name personally!"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, everyone couldn't help but gasp. This reward is not insignificant, and it can even be said to be a bit out of the ordinary.

Because Bai Qi did not have a title before, this time he became an earl directly, which is equivalent to surpassing a viscount baron and directly becoming an earl.

Forget it, it is a bit exaggerated to actually give it to Shiyi, which is still [-] households.

Fang Xuanling frowned slightly, and couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, where is Earl Yongwu's food?"

"Wu'an Prefecture!" Li Shimin laughed.

Wu'an Prefecture?

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized, no wonder the emperor is so generous, this food town is interesting, it is actually in Wu'an Prefecture.

The emperor clearly knew that Bai Qi was the descendant of Lord Wu An, and it is now enshrined in Wu'an Prefecture. Although it is only related by name, the meaning inside is different.

"Your majesty is wise, so Bai Qi must be grateful to Dade, and fight and kill the enemy for our Great Tang!" Fang Xuanling couldn't help admiring.

This move is really wonderful.

"The emperor's stroke of genius, the Great Tang will have one more powerful general!" Even Hou Junji couldn't help but said with a smile.

Even he had to admit that the emperor's move was extremely ingenious, which can completely make Bai Qi grateful, because the word Wu'an is very meaningful.

Bai Qi wanted to restore Lord Wu'an's glory, so this Wu'an Prefecture was undoubtedly the first step.

"Hahaha!"

Li Shimin couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw the ministers showing face so much, looked at the ministers and said in a deep voice: "I haven't finished my words yet, this battle is not due to Bai Qi alone, but also to the entire Suzaku army. There is also the achievement of the champion Hou training well."

"So I decided to reward the Suzaku army with a military flag, and everyone else will be promoted to one level."

"In addition, the champion Hou Wangxiu has made great achievements in military training, making the Suzaku army one against ten. Only then can they fight against the [-] troops of the Phu Kingdom in blood. He specially recruited the General of Hussars and rewarded him with ten thousand taels of gold and one jade wishful."

When Hou Junji heard the last sentence, his face turned green.

What the hell!

He managed to let Wang Xiu suffer a bit, and put all the credit on Bai Qi. The emperor actually gave Wang Xiu a promotion, and he suddenly became a first-rank Hussar General. This is awesome! ah……

This is simply unreasonable. Even Wang Xiu himself did not write about his own achievements in this victory report. Obviously, he has no nerve to take the credit for it.

Now the emperor actually counted him in, which made him a villain in vain.

He couldn't help gnashing his teeth, and murmured: "Damn Wang Xiu, this guy is a bug that can't be killed, why is he everywhere?"

Fortunately, this hussar general is a military official, it's just an honor, otherwise, I, the minister of the Ministry of war, would cry.

"Awesome, Wang Xiu!"

The others couldn't help but be dumbfounded. Wang Xiu's promotion was just like eating himself. It's unreasonable to be promoted by accident.

However, considering that Wang Xiu is already the champion, it is only a matter of time before adding another Hussar General, so it is not unacceptable.

And just as the emperor said, the Vermilion Bird Army was built by Wang Xiu alone, so it is impossible for Wang Xiu to not have any credit for making such a great contribution, this is absolutely unjustifiable.

Seeing that the people did not continue talking, Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "My dear friends, there is still something to report, so why don't you leave the court if you have nothing to do?"

He has been busy arranging Tuyuhun's affairs recently, and now it is the final stage of preparation, he doesn't want to waste time in the court, after all, he has done everything that needs to be done.

Seeing everyone shaking their heads, Li Shimin was ready to retreat.

"Your Majesty, I have a book to play!"

At this time, a person stood up, it was Shen Buyi, the new Youjianyi doctor, and he walked out alone.

Seeing him stand up, the people around couldn't help frowning, this guy is so scary.

Around him, there was hardly a single courtier standing with him, which shows how terrifying this guy is now, he is simply hated by gods and ghosts.

"Fuck, it's this guy again!"

After seeing him come out, Cheng Yaojin sorted out his image almost instinctively, for fear of being targeted by Shen Buyi, this guy is like a lunatic.

If it were someone else who was looking for trouble for him, he would have yelled at him long ago, how dare he be so arrogant.

But in the face of Shen Buyi, he dared not.Because the emperor thinks highly of him now, and even grounded Wei Wang Li Tai for this.Even the prince was fined, so Cheng Yaojin naturally didn't dare to act recklessly.

Li Shimin looked at Shen Buyi, and said in a deep voice, "Shen Aiqing, what's the matter with you?"

"Your Majesty, I recently heard a rumor and thought it was very difficult, so I had to say it!" Shen Buyi said solemnly.

"A rumor?" Li Shimin looked confused. Since it is a rumor, it is not credible at all. Why do you have to say it?

There is something wrong with this, could it be that Shen Buyi is stupid.

Wei Zheng even said bluntly: "Shen Buyi, since he knew it was a rumor, why did he still say it in court? Wouldn't it be a lie to confuse the public?"

"That's right. Wei Zheng's words are reasonable. Rumors are lies. What does it mean to disturb the emperor in court?"

Chapter 342 The Monkey Killing Project

"Are you legalists all cross-eyed, picking on people's faults?"

"Shen Buyi, don't listen to the wind and the rain, you guy. It's you who made the court into a mess, and now you're talking nonsense here again." Hou Junji sneered even more, disdainful.

At this moment, more than a dozen ministers stood up, and they all blamed Shen Buyi. This situation was like a mob attack, even Li Shimin couldn't help being shocked, this is too exaggerated.

Li Shimin frowned and said: "Shen Aiqing, what rumors are going to be told in court, if it's irrelevant, let's not talk about it!"

He was determined to ease Shen Buyi, otherwise Shen Buyi would be outraged by everyone, and he might be forced to punish him.

Shen Buyi shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "This matter is of great importance, and I think many things may not be groundless, and I have also found some evidence."

"Oh?" Li Shimin regained his energy all of a sudden, his eyes became gloomy, and there was evidence, then it was true and not a rumor.

"Tell me, what are the rumors?"

Shen Buyi nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, there are rumors that Hou Junji, Minister of the Ministry of War, is a traitor. He not only withholds food and salaries from the local governor's office, but also intends to raise troops to rebel."

What the hell!

Hou Junji was planning to make a fuss with Shen Buyi, but when he heard this sentence, cold sweat burst out from behind his back. This idiot was actually after him.

boom!

Where did he dare to hesitate, he knelt down on the ground and cried out: "Your Majesty, I have been wronged, how could I raise my troops to rebel, I have always been in Chang'an."

At this moment, he wished he could kill Shen Buyi all at once. What the hell is this guy going to do? Is he going to mess with himself?

Saying that he intends to rebel, is there any evidence?

Hou Junji felt wronged because he didn't even know about it.

"rebellion?"

With a bang, Li Shimin stood up from the dragon chair. As a rebel, Li Shimin was extremely sensitive to these two words.

Others can be tolerated, but this is unbearable.

He looked at Hou Junji, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he didn't get angry immediately, because Shen Buyi also said just now that he had evidence.

"Shen Buyi, this matter has something to do with the Minister of the Ministry of War and Lu Guogong, you can't talk nonsense, this needs evidence." Li Shimin said with a gloomy face.

Shen Buji nodded, took out an account book from his pocket and handed it to the eunuch beside him, said solemnly: "Your Majesty, I don't have evidence for rebellion, but I have evidence for him to deduct local military pay."

"This is the account book for Hou Junji's embezzlement and embezzlement of the military pay of the local governor's mansion. The money he embezzled has exceeded 4000 million at least. It is said that the bed and boards in his house are made of gold, which is very extravagant."

"There are also some overseas tributes that were sent from the localities. Even the emperor didn't have any, so they were withheld by Hou Junji."

"A Minister of the Ministry of War has accumulated so much money, and he doesn't know what he wants to be a minister, but this rumor may not be groundless."

His voice was so loud that the entire Tai Chi Hall fell silent, and everyone looked at Hou Junji in horror. This guy couldn't really do it, right?

But it was only quiet for a moment, and then it boiled instantly, and everyone couldn't help but talk.

"My God, 4000 million pennies!"

"Damn it! Is Hou Junji insane? It's fine to withhold the local army's salary, and dare to intercept the tribute?"

"Good boy, even the bed is made of gold, and the footsteps are also made of gold. This is really too extravagant."

"Rebellious officials and thieves, if this is true, Hou Junji will be beheaded to show the public, as a warning to others!"

The eyeballs of Liu Zhenghui, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, were all red. He was dying of lack of money, and he was about to find someone to rob him. This guy actually embezzled 4000 million yuan, which is simply too much.

He even wanted to eat Hou Junji, if it was true, he must suggest to the emperor to kill this guy.

Li Shimin was even more furious, his gaze like a knife's edge swept across Hou Junji, and then took over the ledger to check it.

The more you look at his face, the uglier it is, and in the end it is extremely gloomy, making people feel like the calm before the storm.

boom!

He threw the account book on the dragon case, and he couldn't help but get up on the case, and said angrily: "Hou Junji, how do you explain this matter?"

He was more or less aware of Hou Junji's greed for money, but because of Hou Junji's contribution, he always pretended not to see it.

But I never expected that the amount of corruption has reached 4000 million, which is almost going to heaven.

The bed and the footboard are all made of gold, which is not treated like an emperor.

Forget it, but secretly intercepted the tribute and moved it back to his own home. This is the real treason, and he obviously didn't take the emperor seriously.

"Your Majesty, my minister..."

"I am wronged. Although I took a little money, I definitely don't have 4000 million yuan, and I don't want to rebel."

When Hou Junji was swept away by Li Shimin's gaze, his whole body trembled, and he almost fell limp on the ground.

But he knew he couldn't get dizzy now, otherwise it would really be over, so he forced himself to calm down and explained.

"Hmph, what's going on with this ledger? Could it be that Shen Buyi fabricated these?" Li Shimin threw the ledger in front of him and sneered.

With his eyesight, he can naturally see that these accounts are absolutely fine.

There are many corruption incidents in it, even when he first came to the throne, this guy was simply too defiant, thinking that the emperor himself did not exist.

Hou Junji looked at the ledger in his hand, the pages of data made his scalp tingle, most of them were true.

But there are still some numbers that he has never seen before. These are obviously Shen Buyi's tricks.

"Your Majesty, I absolutely did not covet so much money, and I have a bottom line!"

Hou Junji struggled and knelt up, then gritted his teeth and looked at Shen Buyi, angrily said: "Shen Buyi must have framed me, I, Hou Junji, am loyal, how could I be so greedy."

Shen Buyi shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Lu, you and I have no grievances, so why should I frame you? If you are really innocent, you dare to ask Baiqi to search, if it proves that you He is innocent, and I, Shen Buji, am willing to pay for it with my life!"
