Hunting system, and I ended up becoming the empress!

At this time, the words "there is nothing to appreciate" popped up in many people's minds.

This is a very dangerous signal.

Xiao Zhixing is a prince of the super first rank, commanding an army of more than 200,000 soldiers. He is also in charge of the military affairs of the north and even holds the military and political power of the two states in the north.

Powerful.

More glorious than Xiao Yuanshan back then.

How would the imperial court and the emperor reward such a person?

After all, such a great achievement cannot be left unrewarded, otherwise someone would grumble that the emperor does not value his meritorious officials.

The Emperor System mocked Zhao Yunqi in his sea of ​​consciousness, "Aren't you going to act? The opportunity to prove that you favor her has come, but what can you use to prove it? Empty words won't work, you have to give her tangible benefits."

It couldn't help wanting to hit him, "She has money and troops, and her subordinates are full of talents. Even you, the emperor, may not be able to compare with her. This time, I think giving her the position of crown prince or the throne would be considered a great reward."

Zhao Yunqi ignored it and responded to Bai Fengmei's words, "Pass on my order to promote Cen Heng of the Northern Province Hundred Craftsmen Academy to the rank of Fourth-Rank Deputy Director of the Ministry of Works."

"Promote Xiong Chumo to the rank of Junior General, commanding 50,000 troops, and station him in Haizhou to guard Jianan Pass together with Feng Lizhen."

"Promote Huo Baijun to the rank of Junior General, commanding an army of 50,000 men, stationed in Yangzhou, and assisting Xue Chen in defending Feiyun Pass."

"Promote Mu Wan to the rank of Junior General, and grant the women's army the title of Women's Army, to guard Xining Pass together with the Mu family army!"

"Promote Yuan Sheng to be the Grand Governor of the Four Northern Provinces, in charge of the military and political power of the four provinces of Beizhou, Mengzhou, Ningzhou, and Xiazhou!"

The Qiansheng Hall was dead silent; all the ministers were stunned by his series of huge rewards.

Even Bai Fengmei opened her mouth wide and stood there petrified, thinking there was something wrong with her ears.

Snapped.

The jade scepter in Li Xiao's hand fell. He suddenly came to his senses and shouted, "Your Majesty! Please think twice!"

With a thud, the old man knelt down in horror, and his whole body began to tremble.

He almost wanted to ask, "Emperor, are you crazy? Or why don't you just give the throne to Xiao Zhixing?"

Plop, plop! Everyone fell to their knees and prostrated themselves.

Even the ministers on Xiao Zhixing's side followed suit and urged him to think twice.

This is so scary. The emperor is going crazy like this. Is he so angry that he wants to flatter someone to death?

The Emperor System made a sharp explosion, "Zhao Yunqi!! You are crazy!!"

"Ah ah - you must be crazy!" It didn't know what dirty words to curse him with except screaming.

The audience in the live broadcast room watching this shot also fell silent, and the barrage seemed to have been cleared.

They were also stunned by Zhao Yunqi's sudden generous reward. Even though they already knew Xiao Zhixing's identity, they felt their scalps tingling inexplicably when they saw this scene.

Xiao Zhixing frowned slightly, quickly thinking about the deeper meaning of Zhao Yunqi's words.

Praise for killing?

Or was he responding to her, or telling the world that he and Xiao Zhixing were indeed in harmony as king and minister? He would not force her to rebel.

Or put her up higher?

Even if she is really forced to rebel in the future, she can say that she was forced. Look at how kind I was to her in the beginning, but she is ungrateful.

Or maybe, he wanted to arouse her ambition, foster her desires, and make her cause trouble so that he could take the opportunity to eliminate her?

Those who play with power will either fight and kill, subdue, or praise to death. They will never allow others to be more powerful than themselves, especially when the other party is the emperor.

Apart from these, Xiao Zhixing couldn't think of any other reasons.

It is impossible that Zhao Yunqi did not have a plan when offering such a huge reward.

In the Qiansheng Hall, all officials knelt down and begged the emperor to withdraw the imperial edict.

Zhao Yunqi sat high up, with a smile on his face. "My dear ministers, what are you doing? My reward is fair and just, and it is worthy of Yuan Sheng's merits. Are you acting so badly? Are you doubting Yuan Sheng's loyalty to me and our country?"

Everyone had a miserable look on their faces and could only continue kneeling.

They had now lost their usual calmness and wisdom and had no idea how to deal with the emperor.

Zhao Yun laughed and said, "Alas, I am not afraid that she wants to take over my kingdom, so what are you afraid of? Yuan Sheng is a loyal child who is devoted to the country and resembles me very much. Even if I give her the kingdom, what's the harm?"

The ministers really wanted to cry and wished they could go up and cover the emperor's mouth.

Only the emperor would dare to say such shocking words.

But Xiao Zhixing couldn't answer it.

The more he praised Xiao Zhixing, the more terrified they became, and they always felt that he was planning something big.

If something goes wrong, it will really lead to chaos, because Xiao Zhixing is also a restless person.

The fight between the master and the minister always scares them, and they can't stand it.

The Emperor System was desperate. "What on earth do you want to do? You don't really want to pass the throne to her? You must be crazy!"

Zhao Yunqi replied, "Don't worry, I have my own intentions. The crown prince must be selected after three years of strategic planning. I am not crazy. You will know my intentions in the future."

The Emperor System was skeptical, "Really?"

"I am one with you, how could I lie to you?"

The Emperor System reminded unhappily, "Okay, you have a good intention, but only a fool would do something like putting chips in the hands of the enemy."

"Who is Xiao Zhixing? No one can take back the power that has fallen into her hands. How will you end up in the future? Even if we choose a prince, how can we let him compete with her?"

Zhao Yun was surprised and said, "I have already considered all of this. You don't need to ask any more questions."

The Emperor System was so angry that it almost went berserk.

outside.

All the ministers knelt there, insisting that he retract his imperial will.

Zhao Yunqi acted arbitrarily for the first time. "I have made up my mind. You don't need to persuade me anymore. I also believe that Yuansheng can manage the north well and guard the northern gate for Dasheng."

Li Xiao cried out with snot and tears, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please take back your order!!"

Zhao Yunqi stood up and said, "Dismiss the court!"

"Your Majesty!" All the ministers shouted in unison but failed to stop him, and could only watch the emperor leave.

There was silence in the Qiansheng Hall, and everyone looked at each other.

Li Xiao was helped up, and everyone came to him for advice.

"Grandmaster, we can't just let this go. We must stop His Majesty before the imperial edict is issued. Old sir, you are the backbone, you must be our vanguard."

Li Xiao frowned and nodded, "I know. So, one of you will stop the flying eagle that is delivering the imperial edict, and the rest of you will follow me to Shengde Hall to stop His Majesty."

"Okay, okay, let's go."

When they arrived at Shengde Hall, they were told that the emperor had gone to the harem to meet the empress dowager and did not know when he would be back.

Li Xiao gritted his teeth and took the lead in kneeling, "Even if I die kneeling here today, Your Majesty will take back your order."

Others followed suit.

Unexpectedly, several guards came out and lifted Li Xiao up. "Old sir, His Majesty said that you are weak and cannot be tortured like this. He specially ordered us to take you back."

Before Li Xiao could react, he was carried away by several people at high speed, "Hey, hey, bastard, put me down, put me down——"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Several more guards came out and said with a smile, "My lords, do you need us to carry you out personally?"

Hawking Dao stood up, swung his sleeves, snorted, then turned and left.

The others understood the emperor's determination on this matter, and they stood up and left dejectedly.

Among them, Feng Lizhen and Zhang Rengui had the ugliest expressions, and they did not look at Bai Fengmei well when they left.

Bai Fengmei was embarrassed and shook his head at the rest of his people, signaling everyone to stay calm. He immediately went back to message Xiao Zhixing.

Xiao Zhixing was leaning against the table, thinking deeply, how should she deal with this?
