After traveling to ancient times, I relied on my husband to win

Golden Palace

The emperor was sitting on the dragon throne on a high platform. The two rows of civil and military officials below him all had solemn expressions, upright postures, their hands clasped in front of them, holding tablets in their hands.

"If you have something to report, please stand up. If not, please dismiss the court." Li Dequan shouted, announcing the start of the court meeting.

For a moment, no one responded. Everyone knew that today's court meeting was to preside over the prince's return to the capital.

Just as they were quiet, the eunuch came in from outside with a message, "Your Majesty, General Cheng is here."

Emperor: "Announce!"

Li Dequan: "General Cheng is here to see me!"

ta ta ta

A burst of hurried footsteps echoed in the hall, and Cheng Lao Hu, dressed in armor and wrapped in silver, walked into the hall.

In front of all the court officials, he knelt on one knee and saluted, "Your Majesty, I am Cheng Lao Hu.

"Be flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Cheng Lao Hu stood up and began to report the progress of the march.

He began to tell about what he had seen and heard along the way, the various people and things he had met, and when he talked about something interesting, he began to gesture with his hands. His voice was also high and low, which made everyone's hearts rise and fall. He spoke with great emotion and passion.

When he talked about the prince being killed, he paused, knelt down and apologized, "Your Majesty, I am guilty. I failed to protect the prince and put him in such a critical moment. I have failed your Majesty's trust. I hope your Majesty will punish me."

Li Chengze saw that no one was defending Cheng Lao Hu from the audience, but he was also right, the prince was in crisis was a fact and could not be changed, and defending Cheng Lao Hu at this time might anger the emperor, and those who were on good terms with Cheng Lao Hu were also watching the expression and attitude of the person on the throne.

The emperor did not speak, and the scene fell into a strange silence. It was Li Chengze who could not bear it any longer, stepped out of the line, and bowed to the emperor.

"Father, this matter was my negligence. I didn't expect to be chased by the Jin people. It has nothing to do with General Cheng. Besides, I am fine now. Thank you very much for rescuing Master Qin."

The emperor sighed and slowly stepped down from the dragon throne. All the courtiers bowed their heads. The emperor walked to Cheng Lao Hu and helped him up.

"I don't blame you. You are also a soldier who followed me to conquer the world. I know what kind of person you are. Fortunately, the prince is fine. Don't mention it again in the future. However, the young master Qin mentioned by the prince..."

When Cheng Lao Hu heard the emperor's pause, his thoughts suddenly changed and he immediately understood that the emperor wanted him to explain Qin Yan himself.

"Oh, Your Majesty, you don't know, Qin Yan is a really capable guy. The Crown Prince's wound was bleeding non-stop, but that guy said something confusing, uh, that wood ash can stop the bleeding. I didn't believe it at first, isn't that stuff everywhere? How could it be so magical? As a result, he really made it happen. Later he said some weird things about how diet can replenish qi and blood, blah blah, he really has some skills."

Li Chengze also took the opportunity to recommend Qin Yan to divert the emperor's attention.

"Yes, father, this Master Qin is indeed a wonderful man. I brought him back to the military camp because I learned that he could refine coarse salt blocks into a purer form than the fine salt provided by the government. Moreover, Master Qin and I have discussed this method, and he has already passed it on to the people in the military camp. Now the salt mines are being vigorously developed, and I believe that soon the people will also be able to eat this fine salt."

The emperor already had a general idea of ​​Qin Yan from Cheng Lao Hu's letter.

But now, hearing Cheng Lao Hu and his prince talking about the guy named Qin Yan, they both looked shocked, thinking that they were so short-sighted and that Qin Yan was so amazing, his curiosity was aroused.

But he didn't move. After all, he was the king of a country and had his dignity.

He stood up straight and glanced at Li Dequan who was standing beside him.

Li Dequan is also an old man who grew up with the emperor. He has a tacit understanding with the emperor. He understands with just one look from the emperor.

Shouted loudly, "Announce Qin Yan and his wife to enter the palace!"

-

A side hall next to the Jinluan Palace

Qin Yan and Jiang Zhi were wearing the same clothes they had worn when they came here. They both had some assets in the 21st century, so their clothes were naturally made of fine materials and featured exquisite workmanship, but they were certainly not comparable to those worn by the nobles here.

Jiang Zhi was wearing a fiery red wide-sleeved fairy dress, and all the gold ornaments on her head had been taken away by Qin Yan. The complicated hairstyle of ancient women was too complicated for Jiang Zhi, so she just tied her hair into a ponytail.

Qin Yan was still wearing a dark blue silk brocade robe with a pattern of precious flowers, his hair was tied up, and he looked like a noble young man.

Jiang Zhi: "Ayan, this palace is really, wow."

Qin Yan: "Well, after all, it's where the emperor stays, so it must be different. But, I'm going to see the emperor soon, so I'm a little nervous."

Jiang Zhi: "At least I came here to meet the emperor, it's worth it. I am still a little nervous, haha."

However, although the two said they were nervous, their faces were actually very calm. After all, they had seen big scenes in the modern world and looked as calm as old dogs. This was basic training, and they knew what they were thinking in their hearts.

The look in their eyes as they looked around betrayed their nervousness.

While they were still chatting, the eunuch came with a message, asking the two to enter the hall.

While everyone in the hall was paying full attention to the movement at the door, the emperor saw that no one was paying attention to him and quietly walked towards the dragon throne on the high platform.

How can I let others see the emperor standing? Of course I have to sit on the dragon throne to show my majesty.

He gave Li Dequan a look, and Li Dequan quickly provided cover, shielding the emperor's back, and while no one was paying attention, he tidied up the emperor's appearance.

Qin Yan held Jiang Zhi's hand and walked together among the civil and military officials.

He saluted the majestic emperor, "Your Majesty, long live the emperor."

"Free gift"

"Are you Qin Yan who saved the prince?"

Qin Yan: "I don't deserve it. I don't deserve it. These are just some low-level tricks."

The Emperor: "You don't have to be modest. The Crown Prince has reported all your affairs to me. You can offer the method of making salt to my Dongwu Kingdom, which shows your talent."

"I am also a person who values ​​talent, and I will never bury a talent like you.

Qin Yan, please accept the order. I hope you can make great contributions to the Dongwu Kingdom. I will pardon your Qin family's crime, make you a county man, and enjoy a hundred acres of good farmland. I hope you can continue to serve the Dongwu Kingdom in the future. Please accept the order quickly. "

Cheng Laohu was happy for Qin Yan. Although the county magistrate had no real power, it was still an official position. He could go to court and receive a salary.

Seeing Qin Yan was dumbfounded, Cheng Lao Hu became anxious and whispered to him, "Hey, kid, hurry up and listen to my orders, you are dumbfounded."

Qin Yan and Jiang Zhi quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

"I thank the emperor for his grace!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

……

After the court session ended, several of Cheng Lao Hu's acquaintances came over to congratulate him.

"Qin boy, work hard in the future. Hahaha." Cheng Lao Hu laughed and left.

Seeing his father leave, Cheng Ziang raised his hand and put his hand on his shoulder, "Brother, hang out with us from now on. With us around, no one will dare to cause trouble to you, don't worry."

Qin Yan: "Okay, I'm unfamiliar with this place, so I need your help. I'd like to thank you all here."
