The Immortal Monarch Xia was deceived

All the ministers had to rest for three days, and on the fourth day after the new emperor ascended the throne, all the officials returned to court.

The Golden Luan Hall is a little different from before.

In the past, the Ninth Five-Year Master sat on the dragon chair, and the national teacher reclined on the wide soft chair beside him.

Today, the soft chair is gone.

There is only one supreme throne in the Golden Temple.

It's just that the high platform where the dragon chair is located is surrounded by a layer of orange-yellow veil, which completely blocks the high platform, and the condition of the ninety-five statues on the dragon chair cannot be seen.

What about the national teacher?

Quite a few of the ministers had already guessed that the national teacher might sit on the dragon chair behind the veil with the new emperor, listening to the government behind the curtain.

The new emperor's first court meeting after he ascended the throne, the servants: If there is something to do, it will be played early, and if there is nothing to do, it will officially start with the sound of retreating from the court.

Everything seems to be business as usual.

I haven't gone to court for three days, and I have piled up some trivial matters that need to be reported.

The national teacher, regardless of political affairs, delegated power to the ministers, but asked everyone to make the affairs public, and then the heads of the ministries would report the results.

The officials reported the government affairs of the past few days to the new emperor.

It was fine at first, after the gauze everything was normal.

But after about half an hour, a dull sound came from behind the orange veil.

The voice was not loud, and the officials in the front row pointed their ears and could vaguely hear it.

"Your Majesty," the originally clear voice was panting now, "Be gentle."

"It hurts me."

The sensuality made the officials blush instantly.

The national teacher and Emperor Xiangyuan actually made a big fuss in the solemn court hall.

The demon who has charmed the emperors of the world is reclining on the dragon chair at this moment, with his arms tightly imprisoning his sweetheart, and he is directing and acting on his own.

Facing his naughty prank, Yang Wentuo's teeth itched in anger, but there was no way to stop it.

Chi Si originally planned to listen to the courtier's performance with his majesty.

But what they were talking about was trivial matters, and he didn't care at all.After listening to a few words, I lost interest.

Originally thought that the court meeting would be over in less than an hour, but this group of people chattered endlessly.

He felt bored, and suddenly became excited about playing.

In order to calm Longyan's anger, he begs for compromise: "My lord, please be gentle with me."

"I can't bear it."

Yang Wentuo was about to be blown up.This person can perform a double reed by himself, and he can also do a fake show for real.

In the first court meeting after the new emperor succeeded to the throne, it was rumored privately by hundreds of officials: Emperor Xiangyuan is obsessed with beauty, desolate... has no way.

***

Emperor Xiangyuan was assisted by real immortals descended from the mortal world, and when he succeeded to the throne, auspicious clouds and auspicious clouds descended from the sky, which has never been seen in history.

The people of Li have no doubt that he is the real dragon chosen by the heaven to come to the world, and the Dayan Dynasty will surely create a peaceful and prosperous world under his rule.

However, the actual situation is not as good as the people expected.

Natural disasters continue to occur frequently across the country.

There are state teachers with profound Taoism in the court, and there are endless immortals in various places among the people.

Due to the phenomena of the weather, people are more and more popular in praying to gods and worshiping Buddha.

In the fields, on the table and in front of the bed, there are not only fairy temples, but all kinds of gods are enshrined everywhere.

It may be that the heart is too sincere, there are many places that touch the heavens, and the counties and counties with traces of gods are also increasing.

The dragon kings of the four directions and the 72 road immortals competed to descend to the earth, and even some fox fairies and ghosts mixed in.

There are also local rumors that the Emperor of Heaven also visited in person for a few days.

Incense and candles are everywhere, elixir and Taoism can be seen everywhere, and it is unknown how many people have been cheated of their hard-earned money.

At this time, it has entered autumn, the sun is scorching, and it is still as hot as summer.

Dazzling white pillars of hot sunlight shone in from the wide-open doors and windows of the Jinluan Hall, and steam rose from the floor where clouds and smoke flowed, making it unbearably hot.

The court affairs are clear and clear, but there is nothing natural disasters can do about it.

There are many rumors about gods descending to earth, drought demons descending into the world, and rumors of imminent catastrophe.

The national teacher only said that there is no drought, he went to subdue the demons.

But no one knows where the Hanba is.

The Guoshi Sword Formation can split mountains and rivers to destroy heaven and earth in an instant, but it can't do anything to monsters who don't know where they are.

There is nothing to do about the sudden earthquake that does not know when and where.

At most, it would attract a dark cloud to cover the scorching sun, but the gloomy and ghostly aura would send chills down the backs of all the officials.

This can't work, that can't work, the national teacher is too lazy to care about these mortals.

After the courtiers reported the natural disasters in various places, they were about to leave the court when an official suddenly remonstrated that he hoped that the Holy Majesty would come out of Beijing to visit the various county mansions and meet the hereditary commanders of soldiers and horses who were sealed and sealed.

When the new emperor ascended the throne, the generals guarding various places only sent congratulatory gifts, but did not come to Beijing to meet him in person.

They hold heavy troops and live in the fief for a long time, and they check with the royal power in the capital, and their attitude towards the emperor is not as respectful as the courtiers.

And the first place the new emperor should go to patrol is naturally the place where his mother's Qi family is located, Shuofang.

Yang Wentuo frowned slightly when he heard the words, so the officials heard the reply from the national teacher: Yes.

It was still early after the court was over, and the scorching sun was just a little to the west, and it was still shining directly on the head, making people sweat profusely.

Emperor Xiangyuan hurriedly took a bath and changed his clothes, changed into a light and casual uniform, and dragged his exhausted body to the imperial study.

Not long after sitting down, Qi Yin, the governor of the imperial army, came.

As a military officer, she seldom participates in civil affairs and politics, but also has the important task of patrolling the capital, so she generally does not go to court unless there is a major event.

Even though King Linyuan became Emperor Xiangyuan, her attitude didn't change much.

As soon as he stepped into the door, his phoenix eyes were raised slightly, and Li Yin said coldly: "I heard that the Jinluan Palace has become a place of love and moon? My status is not convenient to go to Taoliuyan Lane, and I rarely have the opportunity to see the fireworks. I will go to the Chaotang to open tomorrow." Vision?"

When she spoke to Yang Wentuo, she was full of righteousness and coldness, but she pointed at a certain demon that confused the court.

Chi Si hurriedly cast a spell to attract gusts of cold wind, making the temperature in the study cool and pleasant, and helping her reduce the fire.

Qi Yin gave him a sideways glance, turned back the servant and asked someone outside to guard the door.

Confidential?

Chi Si's heart shuddered, and he flirted with flattery on the pilgrimage: "I have sound insulation skills, do you want it?"

"Didn't it tell you to cast less spells?"

The spells of this true immortal are a bit strange, sometimes he arrogantly says that he is invincible in the world, and sometimes he says that he needs to replenish his spiritual energy after using the Taoism.

Yang Wentuo couldn't tell the difference, so he only asked him to use it as little as possible.

The national teacher has cast spells twice today, and he is a little worried.

"Can this kind of small magic have an effect?" Just as the frivolous laughter came out, he suddenly realized that he had said something wrong, and quickly changed his words, "You will replenish my energy later."

Yang Wentuo didn't want to be used by the Yao Dao to gather yang and invigorate qi, but what he wanted to discuss was a confidential matter, so he nodded in agreement just in case.

Chi Si didn't do anything, but said after a breath: "Okay. If you have something to say, don't worry, the fourth person will never hear it."

Qi Yin was skeptical, but still kept his voice down: "Shuofang has sent a secret message."

Yang Wentuo nodded.

Just now when he was above the court, when the officials made admonitions, he could hear the hidden inside story.

That official was placed in the court by Marquis Shuofang.

"There was a mutiny not long ago." Qingli's voice was calm and calm, and she said something shocking.

Seeing that the other party's expression changed slightly, she added: "Don't worry, it's calmed down now. It's not a big deal."

Otherwise, it is impossible that no news has leaked out, and even the wind of the void has not blown into the capital.

"Why?"

Yang Wentuo's expression was calm, but there was some unbelievable surprise in his heart.

He is familiar with Shuofang Army.Marquis of Shuofang's army was disciplined and well-mannered, so he would not find it strange that the mutiny happened in other places, but in Shuofang's army, it was a bit unexpected.

"Food." The clear and clear voice still didn't fluctuate much, but one could hear the deep compassion, worry and powerlessness in it.

"Last year, several counties and towns suffered disasters, and the grain reserves were used for disaster relief. The autumn harvest was not so good, and there was no surplus grain to fill in."

"You also know that this year, there was a drought in spring and flood in summer, and there was a shortage of food. It seems that some border counties and towns didn't have enough food, so they mutinied."

Qi Yin sighed silently.

Finally, the faint king died, and Ah Ji sat on the dragon chair, so he could start to gradually revise the laws and regulations, and solve the long-standing and chronic diseases.

However, the manpower is weak and there is nothing to do in the face of natural disasters.

"How is the harvest this year?"

"It is said that it is just enough to avoid famine. I am afraid that there will be another earthquake somewhere. Besides, the weather is so hot and abnormal. I don't know if there will be other disasters. People are panicking everywhere."

"This small-scale mutiny is not a big deal." Qi Yin continued, "It's just another matter. They want you to go back in person."

The raised phoenix eyes raised slightly, and the voice was lowered: "I don't know what happened, it wasn't mentioned in the secret letter."

"If you want to go back, it must be a big deal."

In order to prevent leaks, the current emperor needs to go there in person, which must be a bigger matter than a mutiny.

So the officials advised that under the guise of patrolling the princes, they went to Shuofang to deal with a confidential matter that should not be known to outsiders.

"Please explain the affairs of the court and leave as soon as possible."

Yang Wentuo nodded: "You haven't been back to Shuofang for a long time, do you want to go with me this time?"

Qi Yin pondered for a moment, then shook his head: "I can't find a good reason to leave Beijing as a cover-up."

The commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army is not allowed to leave the capital at will.If she is also accompanying, it must be suspicious.

What's more, Emperor Xiangyuan entrusted many political affairs to his courtiers. He didn't have many government affairs to deal with and could leave at any time, but it was difficult for officials to abandon their errands.

After Qi Yin left, there were only two people left in the study.

At this time, Chi Si was a little excited, but also a little inexplicably nervous.

Shuofang is the place where Ah Ji grew up.

If it wasn't for inheriting the throne, Yang Wentuo actually preferred the name Qi Ji, and the Qi family was where he was raised.

He was to be taken to see his grandfather and uncles and aunts.

"What kind of people are they? I'm going to the Marquis of Shuofang. Is there anything special I should pay attention to?"

The willful arrogance has been restrained a bit, and it is rare to have a little seriousness.

He married Ah Ji, and the only relatives he had met... except for the Yang family in the palace, was Qi Yin, his cousin.

He couldn't deal with Qi Yin.In front of her, it was almost impossible to even speak.

Even Yang Huiyu can only be regarded as half relatives, he is not easy to offend.

If the people in Shuofang Hou's Mansion were all like Qi Yin...

He, the son-in-law of a wealthy family, must have been looked down upon by others.

"My grandfather was a lifelong veteran of the army. He was a strict man, and everyone respected and feared him."

The cold and hoarse voice carried some nostalgia: "But after he got older, he became a lot more kind. It's a pity that he died of illness within two years."

"Marquis Shuofang, has passed away?" Chi Si was taken aback.

I originally thought that his life-prolonging elixir was most popular with the elderly.Taking a few as a meeting gift will definitely please the old man.

"Yeah." Yang Wentuo pursed his lips, "It happened a few years ago. Today's Marquis Shuofang..."

There was a sudden pause in the voice, and Yurun's eyebrows and eyes curved slyly and teasingly: "I won't tell you. When you enter the door of Qi's house, you will know by yourself."
