Your Majesty, please draw the card

"Gongjin?" Liu Xi called cautiously.

"I have seen the emperor."

Zhou Yu smiled lightly, and stared at Liu Xi in a daze.He turned his head and glanced at Zhao Yun, and confirmed in the latter's eyes that the male god was really calling him.

"You...why are you here?" It's not because you know how to pinch and count, knowing that you just told a lie about him, right?Liu Xi thought with a guilty conscience.

"I haven't congratulated the emperor on the recovery of his dragon body yet." Zhou Yu paused, and said seriously, "I have something to ask General Zhao."

It was not for me...

Although Liu Xi was a little disappointed, she stepped aside graciously and asked Zhou Yu to ask Zhao Yun directly.He also wanted to gossip about what the male god wanted to ask his idol.

"General Zhao, can you influence the content of the divine card?" Zhou Yu asked seriously.

Zhao Yun couldn't help being surprised: "Why did the governor make such a statement?"

Zhou Yu frowned slightly, as if there was something difficult to solve. After thinking for a while, he said, "When I came, I tried to recommend Zijing to the emperor, and then Zijing really came. This proves that we can solve problems to a certain extent. Influence God card, but this alone will not help the person I want to find. Because this kind of influence can only be used on people who are very close to the original, for example, I can recommend Zijing, but I cannot recommend Guan Yunchang. God card Ingenious and unpredictable, it is indeed the most bizarre treasure in the world. Except for this kind of recommendation, there is no rule at all. I have been studying history books these days. Looking at the historical books, there are only a handful of emperors who can use magic cards Counting, there is only one who can turn over so many cards in a row like the emperor. So I think, probably only the emperor can let me find the person I am looking for. But I guess, the emperor still can't turn over cards as he wants."

Liu Xi nodded secretly, not only can't do whatever he wants, the cheating of the card system is simply outrageous!

Zhou Yu continued: "So this time, I gave the emperor three life-extending pills, on the one hand, to delay time, and on the other hand, to see if the emperor has a chance to influence the content of the magic card, and use the magic card to reverse the situation. Facts have proved that the emperor is really healed. I guess this is the effect of the divine card, but I don’t know who has affected the divine card. When I came to deliver the elixir, everyone looked worried, so I deduced that whether it was Neither the emperor nor you can affect the magic card. When the emperor suddenly got better, General Zhao was the only one by his side. I guess you must have affected the magic card. General Zhao, can you tell Gongjin what you did at that time?"

"This..." Zhao Yun was a little hesitant. After all, this matter involved Liu Xi's secrets. Only he and Liu Xi knew about the natal card, and the others only knew the general idea.

Liu Xi didn't care about being known by Zhou Yu, and told Zhou Yu about the card's loyalty index and natal card.He thought that he had survived by a narrow margin, and he couldn't help but feel a little lucky.

"I see." Zhou Yu nodded, "That is to say, only when the loyalty index reaches the highest level can it be possible to influence the magic card at a critical moment. If this is the case, I wonder if there is still a place for me, Zhou Gongjin, in the emperor's place?"

Liu Xi couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard the words: "Will you help me?"

Zhou Yu nodded and said: "I not only want to serve the emperor, but also want to establish loyalty to the emperor. I hope the emperor will not disappoint me."

Liu Xi said happily: "It's really great!"

"Wait a minute!" Zhao Yun said suddenly.

Liu Xi: "Zilong?"

Zhao Yun frowned, with a cold expression: "It's a good thing that the governor is willing to serve the emperor, but the governor did this only to push the emperor into danger and fulfill his wish. I, Zhao Zilong, was the first to refuse!"

Zhou Yu laughed and said: "General Zhao's words are wrong. At that time, I have already been loyal to the emperor, so how could I harm him?"

Zhao Yun still felt uncomfortable, but couldn't think of words to refute.

Zhou Yu said, "If General Zhao doesn't believe me, I can make a poisonous oath."

"Wait!" Liu Xi coughed lightly and interrupted, "New Year's Day is not suitable for making poison oaths, let's forget it!"

Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty, are you willing to trust me just like that?"

This is not a question of belief or not, but that the male god has no reason to deceive himself on this matter!And the whole book of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" implements the idea of ​​the cycle of cause and effect. Anyone who makes a poisonous oath will have no good end. Just look at Sun Jian who made a poisonous oath without reconciling his family.How could Liu Xi let the male god swear such a poisonous oath?

Liu Xi immediately said seriously: "This matter is not about whether I believe in Gongjin, but whether I believe in myself. If I am not a suitable king for Gongjin, Gongjin will definitely abandon me in the end, and there will be no chance." Pushed me into a dangerous situation. If I am lucky enough to have Gong Jin's great help, why should I be suspicious of my subordinates?"

Zhou Yu thought for a while, nodded and said, "Now I know why General Zhao is so loyal to the emperor. I will take my leave first, and the emperor might as well think about how to use me. I believe the emperor can find a place for me."

After Zhou Yu left, the emperor thought about it and couldn't help but sigh.

Zhao Yun was puzzled and asked, "Why is the emperor so worried?"

"Hey... I hope Gongjin won't want to beat me to death when she sees my appointment!"

Zhao Yun was startled: "Your Majesty?"

But the emperor waved his hand: "Forget it, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Let's think about how to handle the court meeting first! Why do I always feel like I've forgotten something?"

On the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, the Great Court Meeting.

The emperor, who had recovered from the assassination, appeared fully dressed in court, his first appearance in the new year.There have been many rumors about King Zhongshan in the ruling and opposition parties. No matter what the content of the rumors is, the emperor is alive and King Zhongshan is dead, but it is an indisputable fact.This incident made the ministers experience the decisiveness of the emperor for the first time, so some people's attitude towards the emperor is quietly changing.

At the Great Court Meeting, the emperor's first decree was to set the year name as "Jiahe".This homophonic "Jiahe" year name somewhat appeases the empress dowager and the forces behind the empress dowager, but it is unknown what the emperor really thinks.

On the other hand, the official rank of Wang Ting, the prime minister of the right, has been promoted by two ranks, which has exceeded the highest rank of the Sangong Jiuqing.But the strange thing is that the officials of the Wang Ting family did not get much promotion. In the yamen they had firmly controlled, many people from the Zuo Prime Minister Zhao Wenshan's family suddenly appeared.It is conceivable that their life in the first year of Jiahe will not be as easy as in previous years.

Zuo Prime Minister Zhao Wenshan's rank did not change, but the emperor praised him as a "solid prime minister" who served the people wholeheartedly.It didn't take long for this appellation to spread throughout the streets and alleys of Chang'an City. For a few days, Prime Minister Zhao walked like a ghost.The fact that he went to the disaster-stricken area in person the year before was also widely praised. Compared with the old and ineffective Prime Minister You, he has made remarkable achievements in politics, and the common people seem to like him more.Sometimes people's hearts are also a kind of strength.

Wang Ting was very angry with the emperor's clear praise and derogation of the Wang family, and his seeming restraint and real praise to the Zhao family.When it came to King Zhongshan, he didn't believe that the emperor didn't suspect him at all.But this kind of matter involving seeking to usurp the throne, he could not speak to the empress dowager in the palace, and the accusation against the emperor was also severely refuted by the empress dowager.He didn't know what the 14-year-old emperor was capable of. He was able to deceive his sister who was extremely intelligent since childhood, but he already had a sense of crisis that the building was about to collapse, and he was awakened by nightmares for several nights in a row.

The young emperor met almost all important courtiers during the five-day court meeting.He seemed very intelligent and well mannered.He is very generous to everyone, has almost no airs, and has a little innocent curiosity of a teenager.The royal court could not change the image of the emperor in the minds of his foreign ministers.He felt more and more that the emperor was cunning and cunning, but he had no position to criticize the emperor who had just promoted him, otherwise he would turn into retribution and greed, and instead slandered himself.

In addition, the emperor specially selected two nights to receive envoys from other countries.He admired the gifts they sent, and although the gifts they sent in return were not as heavy as before, he proposed to build a pavilion of all nations in Chang'an, so that it would be convenient for people from other countries to stay here and spread Dayan's culture.It is said that Lu Su, Minister of Honglu Temple, has signed agreements with merchants sent by many countries according to the emperor's will, and the emperor will use the gold and silver in the internal treasury to buy the special products of those countries.

Being able to transport "students" and a large amount of goods to Dayan made the envoys feel that the trip was worthwhile.The new emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty does not appear to be aloof like those past emperors.Probably because of his young age, the emperor was very curious about the world outside Dayan, which was undoubtedly good news for the dependent countries attached to Dayan.

For some countries sandwiched between Dayan, Xiongnu and Xiqiang, the Huns and Xiqiang people often mean terror and danger. They were not inclined to Dayan, but now they yearn for peaceful trade with Dayan What's more, Dayan also promised to sell them a certain amount of excellent farm tools, which is tantamount to a timely rain for them.

As for other small countries located in dangerous places, the proposal of the Great Yan sent troops to guarantee their rule proposed by Lu Su, Minister of the Honglu Temple, both moved their hearts and made them doubtful.This matter needs to be carefully considered, but it is certain that some small and unstable countries will eventually accept this proposal.

The emperor was very satisfied with the result.His goal is to establish a diplomatic advantage and change the isolated diplomatic situation.Lu Su understood his thoughts very well, so he made three suggestions.The first is to unite the vassal states, the second is to support the Xiongnu and the small countries around the Xiqiang, and the third is to monitor the important military locations and discover the movements of the Huns and Xiqiang people first.As long as these three points are achieved, the scale of strength can be gradually tilted towards Da Yan.

In later history books, the dynasty in the first year of Jiahe will be called the beginning of ruling the world.The literati praised Emperor Yuan's youthful wisdom, and believed that this was his first step to abandon the harm of his relatives.Few people have seen that the biggest role of this Great Court Conference is actually diplomacy rather than internal affairs.It was from this moment that Dayan's attitude towards the outside world changed, which would affect the world situation in the following decades, and even have a profound effect on the world a hundred or a thousand years later.

Of course, the young emperor was not exhaustive.After the Great Court Meeting finally ended, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten someone in Xiqiang.

"Gao Lishi, why hasn't Li Bai come back yet? You didn't send someone to inform him that my poison has been cured?"

Eunuch Gao smiled without saying a word, turned around and took out a couplet for the emperor to answer.The emperor who couldn't take care of himself could only silently light a candle for Shixian...
