Reincarnation of the powerful minister

The Lingguang Temple was demolished into ruins, and the design of the "Tiangongyuan" finalized by the King of Yu and the officials of the Ministry of Industry was successfully started.

Right now, the Ministry of Industry is busy clearing the site, laying foundations, and recruiting civilians. Instead, the King of Yu has a leisurely time. In his study, he repeatedly read the "Draft of the Founding Articles of the Tiangong Institute" left by Su Yan, flipping through the bindings. Rotten.

He hired a group of guest ministers, some of whom were erudite Confucians who had run academies, and more of them were folk geophysics talents. Based on this draft, he revised and improved it, and compiled the official draft of the articles of association.

King Yu reckoned that Su Yan should be able to come back from Shaanxi at the end of the year, and by then, the overall outline of the college would be completed, so he could just be invited to inspect it.

After walking for almost a month, there was no news at all.You can write a book for the emperor, and even Zhu Helin, the little devil, sent a handwritten letter, so can't you write me a letter?King Yu felt sour in his heart.

He knew about the affair in the Wutong Waterside Pavilion, and it wasn't a love affair, but he thought that he only used some coercive means at the beginning, but in the second half, Su Yan himself knew the taste and cooperated very well.The last scolding and slapping on others is a crime and should be questioned; if it is done by Su Yan, it is a taste.

As the saying goes, hitting is kissing and scolding is love, and kissing and loving kicking.King Yu didn't mind being slapped by his sweetheart, it didn't hurt much anyway, and even thought that after he returned to Beijing, if the anger still persisted, he would just give him some more slaps to vent his anger.

——The only thing that is certain is that Su Yan is already his man, and he will never want to escape from his palm in this life.

When Prince Yu thought about it, his mood improved a lot, so he picked up his pen and wrote a love letter to his sweetheart who was thousands of miles away. The words were very nasty. : "Xingye rushed to Shaanxi, be sure to hand it over to Su Yushi, and ask for a reply letter. If there is no reply letter, you don't have to come back!"

The personal guard took the order, packed his bags immediately, and set off on a fast horse.

At the same time, Shen Qi had a face-to-face interview in the imperial study room, and received the reward promised by the emperor.

Because Jiyao's case was handled beautifully, and the efficiency was even higher than the emperor's expectations, Emperor Jinglong made an order on the spot to promote him to Jinyiwei Tongzhi.Tongzhi is the third rank, his official rank is second only to the commander, and he is in charge of Beizhen Fusi, so he has become the second in command of Jinyiwei.

And the position of "Palmprint Commander", since Feng Qu'e's death, is still vacant, and Shen Qi has long regarded it as something in his pocket. He only needs to make a few more meritorious deeds, and he will be promoted logically.

After all, he is only 25 years old. It took only a few months from Qianhu to Qianshi, and then to Tongzhi, and his rapid rise is comparable to that of firecrackers.If he climbed to the sky one step further and directly held the Jinyiwei, who was dismayed by all the officials, in his hands, I'm afraid the tree would attract the wind, but it would not be beautiful.

And according to Jinshang's temperament, he rarely favors officials.Su Yan can be regarded as a very different one, but because he offended his relatives and the queen mother, he was jointly impeached by many courtiers, and had to be demoted and released to avoid disaster.

Although he has only been promoted to a half-rank official rank this time, it is better to fight steadily, Shen Qi knows it well, so she is not dissatisfied in the slightest.

After kowtowing to thank him, Shen Qi reported to the emperor a prison case involving officials from other places, and applied to leave Beijing for business without any trace.The emperor did not agree immediately, but only ordered him to sort out the files first, and then let him withdraw.

Shen Qi was disappointed in her heart, but she didn't show the slightest bit on her face, and she respectfully retired.

After he left the study, Emperor Jing Long casually asked Lan Xi, who was accompanying him, "What do you think of this man?"

Since Lan Xi was beaten by the emperor, she has become more cautious in her words and deeds. How dare she criticize the officials, she only said: "The slaves only know how to serve the emperor with all their heart, and dare not speak lightly of others' favors."

Emperor Jing Long shook his head: "You old slave, you become too timid and boring when you are too scared."

Lan Xi's heart trembled, and she suddenly realized that she had received a fatal warning for prescribing Su Yan's medicine without authorization. He laughed and said: "If the emperor doesn't dislike the shallow-sightedness of the servants, then the servants will dare to talk nonsense."

"Go ahead."

"Shen Tongzhi is young but not arrogant. He is persevering and courageous. He is quite capable in his actions. He is a talent."

The word "Xiao" is used ingeniously. It not only refers to a fierce and tenacious temperament, but also because owls and scorpions are disobedient animals, it implies that they do not follow the righteous way, and it also reveals a sense of sternness and sharpness.The emperor thought about the three tastes, and said with a smile: "You mean, he may not be loyal to me, and he may be difficult to control in the future?"

Lan Xi knew that the emperor had always had a plan in his mind. Sometimes, asking about strategies was not necessarily a real question, but just a test of the ability of the people around him, so she lowered her head and replied, "The paper cutters sold by Westerners are always difficult for servants to use, because they are too sharp and careless. It can cut hands. But the emperor used it to carve nephrite on a whim, but he never missed it. From this we can see that as long as the hand holding the knife is stable and strong enough, you don’t have to worry about being cut by the sharp blade.”

"It can be used, and it is easy to use, but it must be suppressed." The emperor said slowly, "Just like the legendary beast, 梼杌, who can't see the light of the sky, but can frighten the monsters and monsters in the dark. Just guard against it and use it. Kill him first."

"So, as I said last time, I haven't paid much attention to the chief officer of Jin Yiwei's palm print, and I still do so now."

On Su Yan's birthday, he was drunk and was sent out of the palace by Shen Qi under false pretenses. Although this act coincided with the holy will, and he could justify it when he explained it, this matter was always a thorn in Emperor Jing Long's heart.

Emperor Jing Long thought deeply, all civil and military officials were on his list of wariness, it was just a matter of how wary he was, and it was even more difficult for people like Shen Qi to win his trust.

Su Yan was the only one who fell into the emperor's heart cleanly. For some reason, he couldn't bear to use and hurt him, and he didn't want to see him showing fear and fear.

I want him to soar in the sky like a falcon, fighting the wind and rain, and I want him to be fluffy in my lap, loving and tender.

——It was just like the fate of the previous life, the emperor sighed helplessly and happily.

Lan Xi hesitated for a moment, "However, Jin Yiwei has no one to pick it up, so I'm afraid it's inconvenient to use it."

The emperor nodded: "Sooner or later, there will be an official with the palm seal, let's see... Yuan Bin still insists on staying in Nanjing for the elderly, and refuses to return to the court to serve?"

Lan Xi replied: "Dudu Yuan is already in the age of obedience. The last time I was ordered to send someone to visit, although he is still in good health, he always humbly said that he is old and dim, and he is embarrassing."

The emperor said regretfully: "If he was 20 years younger, why would Jin Yiwei have no one to pick him up?"

In Beizhen Fusi, Shen Qi sent away the leaders of Jinyiwei who came to congratulate him on his promotion, closed the door of the room, and his face darkened.

Although the emperor did not reject the request to go out of Beijing to handle errands, his attitude was clear that he would not allow it.After thinking about it, Shen Qi felt that the problem was that she had falsely preached an edict to take Su Yan out of the palace, which was a big taboo.Although he was not severely punished at the time, he lost the trust of the king.

I thought that the commander of Jinyiwei, who was like picking something out of a bag, might miss the position because of this.

Do you regret it?If it wasn't for Su Yan, Shen Qi would of course regret it.

But besides Su Yan, who else would make him mess up, knowing that it would harm his personal interests, and still do it recklessly?

——He knew that Su Yan was his robbery.They thought that after Feng Qu'e's death, the catastrophe would be over, and they could finally turn the clouds and see the moon, but unexpectedly, the road ahead would be even more difficult.

He is not afraid of difficult roads, nor is he afraid of the sea of ​​fire, mountains of knives, and rain of guns and arrows ahead.He was afraid that he would never see Su Yan again.

My mother often said that all hardships in life will eventually be rewarded at the end.Shen Qi believed that Su Yan was not only his catastrophe, but also his way, the linden nectar after all kinds of torture, and the only kindness bestowed on him by the gods and Buddhas who were all over the sky with cold eyes and hands.If he gets it, he will lose it—even if this thought is just a flash, it makes him frightened to the point of madness.

Fear made his limbs cold, and his chest was full of violent and tyrannical hostility. Usually, this hostility can be temporarily extinguished by killing or torture, with blood and wailing, but now he can't do this anymore, for fear that the blood will seep into his body. The kit in his arms soiled the letter Su Yan wrote to him.

Shen Qi took out the kit, opened the letter, and read it silently over and over again, stroking the two lines of handwriting back and forth with trembling fingertips, as if she could draw great comfort and peace from it.

The hostility and evil fire in his chest gradually extinguished, and he returned to the cold, powerful, calm and composed leader of Jinyiwei.

"...I want to see you, I want to hug you and kiss you, so every bone in me hurts." Shen Qi caressed the letter paper and murmured like a ghost in the empty darkness, "What about you? You are also there Miss me?"

Su Yan wanted to cry.

If he had known that when he went out to hit Tai Sui today, drinking cold water would stuff his teeth, he would definitely hold on to Zhang Qianhu and follow his cavalry to the north, instead of succumbing to the lustful power of the guards and finally putting himself in a desperate situation.

The ins and outs have to start from last night.

The hero of Zhang Qianhu saved the beauty... Crossed out, it was the road that saw injustice and drew his sword to help. After repelling the thieves led by Wang Wu, Su Yan took the [-] good horses that Qingpingyuan was going to sell to him. Pay) to give it to him as a gift, making a business without capital and following the flow of favors.

Originally, Zhang Qianhu's task was to go to Qingpingyuan to collect debts and get the [-] war horses that should be allocated to Ningxia Wei.

Unexpectedly, Chief Yan Chang led them around more than half of the pasture, and took some sick and thin horses that couldn't stand up.Zhang Qianhu cursed on the spot, but Yan Changming put it bluntly that there were only such horses in Qingpingyuan, and if he didn't like it, he might as well go to other gardens to choose.

During the stalemate, he suddenly saw the smoke rising into the sky in the distance, and his first reaction was that the tartars knocked at the gate, so he attacked with a whole team and rescued Su Yan who was surrounded by thieves and robbers.

It was only then that I learned from Su Yan that there were still some good horses hidden in Qingpingyuan, but they would rather take the risk of beheading and sell them to dealers than support the frontier barracks, which made him furious.

Su Yan comforted: "Man dies for money and birds die for food. Since Yan Youchang is willing to put his head on his belt for money, then you might as well let him go."

The two discussed, and Zhang Qianhu led his troops into Qingpingyuan early the next morning, exposed Yan Chang's crimes face to face, and took five hundred good horses away from the C-brand stable.Su Yan didn't show up here, and only waited for Zhang Qianhu to get the horse, and escorted him along the way.He is going to Lingzhou.

Zhang Qianhu asked in amazement, "You are a businessman, and you do business between various prefectures and cities. Why do you have to go near the border, not afraid of bumping into the Tartar army?"

Su Yan actually wanted to see the situation in the border barracks.According to what Wang Chen said, border soldiers raised private horses and sold them to the government for profit; when talking with Yan Chang, the other party also revealed that there were many disadvantages in frontier camps.He had to see what happened with his own eyes so that he could collect information so that he could start reforming governance later.

Chu Yuan resolutely opposed it, thinking that Lingzhou was at the foot of the Great Wall, adjacent to the Hetao area, and on the route that the Tatars and other ministries often invaded. This trip was too dangerous, and advised Su Yan to return to Xi'an.

In Su Yan's planned investigation itinerary, Qingshui Camp in Lingzhou was the last stop. Seeing that he was only close to the door, and escorted by Zhang Qianhu's cavalry, he thought it was relatively safe, so of course he didn't want to give up.

Because of the prison robbery in Yan'an, Chu Yuan was reprimanded by the emperor's secret letter, telling him to put Su Yan's safety as the first priority, and other matters can be postponed.

The two insisted on their own opinions, and in the end they couldn't argue. The Jinyi guards obeyed the emperor's order and almost carried him back.

Su Yan was so angry that he was half dead, and secretly said to Jing Hong: "Don't worry about those stupid guys, take me to Lingzhou!"

Unexpectedly, even Jing Hong would not listen to him now, she shook her head and said: "What they said is reasonable, the safety of your lord is the first priority. If you want to go to Lingzhou, wait until there is a large army guarding you."

Su Yan used the aggressive method: "Didn't you claim that you are good at martial arts, that you can defeat a hundred with one, are you lying to me?"

Jing Hong couldn't be fooled, so she had no choice but to smile bitterly: "My martial arts are for chasing and killing people for thousands of miles, not for protecting people's safety among thousands of troops. My lord really thinks that I am Chang Banpo, holding the young master Qi Qi in his arms. Zhao Zilong who enters and exits seven times? Even if I am, adults are not swaddling babies who can be carried in the breastplate."

Su Yan rolled his eyes and ignored him, and went to bully Wang Chen who was tied into rice dumplings in the carriage.

The group bid farewell to Zhang Qianhu and headed southeast to Xi'an Mansion.

Who would have expected that there would be unexpected events in the sky, if according to Su Yan's words, it might not be a problem to venture to the border Lingzhou.Turning around to go to Xi'an, instead, less than [-] miles away from the return journey, he bumped into a group of Tatar cavalry troops who burned, killed and looted.

It can be seen that Su Yan is really not an ordinary back when it comes to the issue of size and probability.
