The most powerful minister in the world

In Jing Mansion, there was a person kneeling at the steps in front of the study room in the west courtyard. Jing Lixiao, wearing a dark black robe, walked out of the room and angrily shouted with his hands behind his back: "When will you change your bad temper for me!"

"Dad, I'm not wrong. He burned five hundred of my brothers. If I don't kill him, it won't be enough to vent my anger!"

Jing Xi still arched his neck and shouted back at Jing Lixiao, causing him to sigh and say, "I'm not your father, get out of here now!"

"Get out of here, I won't go when the emperor's decree arrives!" After saying that, Jingxi stood up, patted the dust on his knees and left without looking back.

It is said that Jingxi left the west courtyard, got on his horse, left the city, and headed straight into the mountains...

Jing Lixiao put on the imperial python suit given to him when he entered the palace, and stood in front of the bronze mirror, lost in thought. His hair on the temples had gradually turned white. This military god who has been galloping on the battlefield for decades will be 40 after this year. Five.

"Dad, are you worried about Jingxi?"

Hearing what his son said behind him, he came back to his senses and snorted coldly: "I'm in the capital, and that brat can't change the world."

"What are you thinking about? Now that Southern Xinjiang has recovered five cities, the remaining two can be exchanged for the lives of their own princes."

"Hahaha," Jing Lixiao dusted off his python uniform and said with a smile: "My son, don't think of things so simply. Those two cities were also defeated by the soldiers of Chen State with their own flesh and blood. They belong to Chen State." No matter how much the emperor loves his son, he still has to weigh the gains and losses."

"Yes, Dad."

"Oh, by the way, when you come back from the palace, remember to pay homage to your mother's grave."

Jingchuan's eyes flickered, as if his mother's virtuous figure was emerging in front of him. He quickly said yes, and after helping his father tidy up his clothes, they went out together and headed straight for the imperial city.

The floor is paved with white jade, dragons and phoenixes are about to fly on the sandalwood-carved eaves, and the roof of the palace with golden glazed tiles is like this.

The green hair is swaying in the incense burner of Qilin Playing with Pearls. It has just passed the light snow season. Emperor Yun Gong of Qianyang has already lined up people to light the charcoal fire on the four-pillar cauldron. Although this year's winter snow came a little earlier, it is by no means like this. .

"No, no, no, this move was not good, try again."

"Father, you have regretted five moves in chess. You have no regrets about your moves. You taught me this."

Emperor Qianyang Yun Gong didn't listen to his son's words. He pushed his hand aside, moved the white chess piece to another position, and took a satisfied sip of tea before saying: "I taught you so many words, how can you remember this?" One sentence?"

The prince bowed and said with a smile: "My father's words will always be remembered in my heart, and I also think that it would be better if this piece falls here." After saying that, he moved the white piece that had been settled just now to another position. .

The second prince Yun Ziying, also known as the current prince, was born to Emperor Qianyang's favorite concubine Shu. When he made the second prince the prince, he encountered fierce opposition from the officials. Unfortunately, they underestimated the importance of their emperor. Concubine Shu's love did not prevent her from succeeding in the end.

Yun Gong stroked his beard and looked at Bai Zi's position for a while, then nodded, "Yes, yes, I wanted to take this step just now. It's your turn, go on."

Yun Ziying grabbed a handful of sunspots and played with them in his hand, seemingly casually, and the two of them started playing with each other.

"Father, this time the Jing family army won a great victory in southern Xinjiang and the lost territory recovered, do you think we should give some appropriate gifts?"

"I have issued an order to exempt Changsu, Mengpu, Yongze, Tingyan, and Xiang'an from taxes for three years. As for the others, please draw up some more according to the regulations and let Zhongshu Sheng issue them together."

"Father, Emperor Shengming, how should the Jing family army be rewarded?"

Hearing this, Yun Gong suddenly raised his head and stared at Yun Ziying for a long time before saying, "How do you think I should reward the Jing family army so that they can match their achievements like this?"

Hearing this, Yun Ziying trembled all over and immediately prostrated in the tunnel and said: "Please ask Father Emperor Qian Gang to make his own decision."

"Hahaha, look how scared you are, I have no other intention, I just want to ask you." Yun Gong moved the pillow and leaned on it, raised his hand and said, "Sit down, let's play chess, play chess."

As soon as Yun Ziying's butt landed on the cushion, the eunuch Tan Si walked in with half-hunched body and small steps.

"Your Majesty, the Jing family father and son are already waiting outside the palace. Do you want to announce their entry?"

Yun Gong flicked his long sleeves and said with a smile, "Look, this person just lets them in without asking." He turned around and picked up the teacup again, "Maybe you and Jingxi haven't seen each other for a long time."

Yun Ziying nodded, as if counting the days, scratching his face and murmuring: "Last year, the Jing family army returned to the capital, and he stayed in the original camp. After all, I haven't seen him for almost two years."

As the sound of footsteps came closer and closer, the two of them looked at the Jing family father and son who walked in and couldn't help but frown.

"My minister Jing Li Xiao and his son come to see Your Majesty and the Crown Prince~"

Before Jing Lixiao and Jing Chuan could kneel down, Yun Gong immediately said with a cheerful face: "No need for etiquette, no need for etiquette. If you come, please give me a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The young eunuch moved two chairs to one side, and the Jing family father and son sat down. Tea and water were all available. After finishing this work, Emperor Qianyang said again: "Go and bring the oranges that were just offered yesterday to the two generals."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. When I got up this morning, I felt my mouth was sore. I have some tangerines, so I'll let you eat one first."

"Eat, eat, we are almost reaching the age of destiny. You have to fight outside all year round, so you need to take better care of your health." Yun Gong pointed at the charcoal fire, indicating that it should be brighter, "Where is Jingxi?"

Jing Lixiao, who had just stuffed the orange into his mouth and chewed it, coughed twice and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Jingxi was unfortunately injured by a hidden arrow while chasing the enemy prince for dozens of miles. When he entered the capital, his old injury relapsed, and he is now being taken care of. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Hey~ Our young hero is not only your treasure, but also my treasure. That's all. It's just that the prince hasn't seen his childhood playmate for a long time, and he really misses her a lot."

Jing Lixiao took the words and looked at the prince Yun Ziying, nodded slightly and said, "I am concerned about the prince. The arrow wound did not damage the muscles and bones. It was just invaded by the cold wind and was slightly infected. After the injury is healed, I will ask him to visit him." Prince."

Of course Emperor Qianyang and the Crown Prince knew that Jingxi was not injured. They had known for a long time that what Jingxi did in South Street was just a tacit understanding and they did not talk about it.

After all, Jingxi had been favored by the emperor and had been accompanying the princes since he was a child. Yun Gong also knew that he was unruly at heart. Due to his outstanding talent, he turned a blind eye and allowed him to run wild.

"Jingshuai is joking. I should go and see our southern hero. Besides, isn't Jingchuan here? I have a lot to say to him."

As soon as Yun Ziying spoke, Yun Gong took over the words and said with a smile: "Is it possible that we two old men are here to listen to you chatting about home affairs? Really, you, you should not be allowed to enter the palace today."

"Hahaha, my father taught me a lesson."

Yun Gong rolled his eyes at her, then smiled at Jing Lixiao and Jing Chuan: "If I remember correctly, Jing Chuan and Jing Xi are also nineteen, right?"

Jing Lixiao nodded and replied: "Yes, please remember, Your Majesty, Jingchuan will reach the crown next year and Jingxi will be two years younger."

"Hmm~ It's time to start a family and build teeth. Look at this little boy of mine who is married to both the main concubine and the concubine. They grew up together since they were young. Naturally, they can't be separated. It's just that they have been fighting with you all these years. There has been no chance outside, but now that the situation in southern and northern Xinjiang is stable, let’s make arrangements as soon as possible.”

Jingchuan was taking the tangerine from his father when he heard this and almost accidentally missed it. Jing Lixiao also immediately handed over his hand and said: "Your Majesty..."

"Hey~ It's settled, Jing Lixiao, Jingchuan will take over."

Jing Lixiao originally wanted to say something more, but now he had no choice but to kneel down and receive the order.

"Give General Jing Lixiao and Jingchuan and Jingxi each a palace and two levels of promotion. Well..." Emperor Qianyang looked at the prince, "As for the two palaces, let the prince choose them." ."

"In addition, I will give you 50,000 taels of silver, two boxes of agate, pearls and jade, two sword handles, and three royal horses."

Yun Ziying was shocked when he heard that his father had awarded him a first-class military prince. The two sunspots in his hand accidentally fell to the ground. Fortunately, there was no sound. Now he heard that Jingchuan Jingxi Mansion was going to be rewarded in the capital. All of a sudden, The boy came back to his senses.

"Wait, this is not enough, I also want to grant you a marriage!"
